Yang Xiaotao was silent, but Liu Daming on the side suddenly stood up and walked to the front table.

"Liu Gong."

Yang Xiaotao shouted, the other party was not quite right, and hurriedly followed.

On the table in the front row, Secretary Wang was communicating with a middle-aged man.

The middle-aged man was wearing long sleeves, his cheeks were deep, his hair was unkempt, but his speech was in a low voice, with an authentic Sijiucheng flavor.

The two were talking, when suddenly they saw a man walking over and standing not far from them.

Secretary Wang looked up.

The person who came was not young, not tall, and had gray hair, but his brows were furrowed together, and he looked angry, or excited?

The middle-aged man also saw Liu Daming, his brows furrowed, his eyes stared, and then his pupils dilated violently, and his body suddenly stood up.

Secretary Wang beside him obviously felt that his body was trembling.

Similarly, Liu Daming shook his body and panted, and Yang Xiaotao hurriedly came to his side to help.

Then he followed his gaze to the middle-aged man in front of him.

There was a sudden silence in the field.

A group of people stared at the two in bewilderment.

"Master, master!"

The middle-aged man's voice was hoarse, as if he was trying to suppress his emotions, and tears flowed down his face.

"Dog, Shen Dog!"

Liu Daming also pursed his lips and spit out two words.

"Master, I am, I'm a dog, I'm ah!"

Poof

The middle-aged man knelt on the ground and reached out to hug Liu Daming's leg, "Master, it's me, it's me!" ”

Liu Daming raised his hand tremblingly, looking at the middle-aged man with the same hair as himself in front of him, wanting to touch it, but what were he afraid of.

His head was raised, and tears fell to the ground as he ran down his ears.

"It's been eight years!"

"Eight years!"

Liu Daming said in his mouth, only this sentence, but it made the crying middle-aged man even more uncomfortable.

"Master, master!"

"I know, eight years and three months, I know! Master! ”

The middle-aged man cried sadly, and the eyes of several other people at a table were also red.

And at this moment, another old man came from behind.

A middle-aged man at the table was bowing his head and holding back his tears, trying to suppress the thoughts that came out of his heart.

But I heard a familiar name.

"Niu Wa, isn't it you?"

The good people are like being struck by lightning.

Suddenly turned his head.

"Master. Yes. Master! ”

"It's really you, cow baby..."

"Master."

For a moment, the cry rained down.

Another couple hugged each other, crying and laughing.

At this moment, several people at this table looked at the other tables, trying to find the faces in their memories.

There are even people who have gone down and searched everywhere.

Yang Xiaotao stood between the two teams on the left and right, listening to their conversation, and his heart was panicked.

Everything in front of you, you don't have to guess to know what the situation is.

Everyone knew in their hearts that there was silence at the scene.

Secretary Wang looked at the noodle scene and couldn't help sighing, "Xiao Shen, Xiao Li, and two masters, let's sit down and talk, sit down and talk." ”

Liu Daming helped the apprentice up, and looked carefully at the apprentice he hadn't seen for eight years, and the two sat together.

"You, why is this hair whiter than mine?"

When Secretary Wang heard this, he looked at Xiao Shen with guilt on his face.

Xiao Shen didn't answer the master's question, because there was no need to say this at all.

It's the same for everyone.

"Master, it's nothing, why are you here? I didn't expect you, I didn't expect you to come back, if I knew, I, I..."

The voice choked again, grabbed Liu Daming's hand, and worked harder.

It's a happy event to meet your old acquaintance in a foreign country, let alone meet your master and relatives?

Liu Daming didn't know what to say, just clapped his hands.

"This time, I gathered people to support the front line, and I signed up."

"However, your craftsmanship has not fallen over the years."

"No, master, an eighth-level fitter, I'm also an eighth-level fitter now. I'm not ashamed of you. ”

"Hahaha, good, good"

Everyone around them got out of the way and gave the space to the four of them.

Yang Xiaotao returned to his original seat, and Hou Baowei on the side looked at Liu Daming and the two and talked about the past.

"This person is Shen Rong, Lao Liu's apprentice, the most proud apprentice, or the son is not bad,"

"When Shen Rong's parents died of illness, he was the only one left, and the young man of eighteen or nineteen years entered the rolling mill, he didn't know anything, he didn't understand anything, it was Lao Liu who took him and walked out step by step."

"In those years, the two of them said that they were masters and apprentices, but they were like father and son."

"Later, Guo Jia called, and he signed up and left the rolling mill"

Hou Baowei told the story, and everyone felt uncomfortable listening to it.

"Look at him, he's not even forty this year, like this."

"Here, I have suffered a lot!"

Everyone looked at the ramen in the bowl and the two dishes on the table, and their hearts were even more panicked.

"Life over here, it's hard!"

Niu Jianfeng on the side suddenly spoke.

"A few years ago, to support construction, many factories moved here."

"Later, the factory was built and the workers came, but the logistics couldn't keep up. The whole country is tightening their belts, how can there be any superfluous? On this way, it is difficult to transport everything, not to mention the famine in those years, and the life here is even more difficult. ”

"These people, they have suffered a lot!"

The crowd was indifferent.

Yang Xiaotao remembered the sentence he said in his previous life, 'One generation has suffered for five generations, and one generation has fought for five generations'.

And now, he is also a generation.

After waiting for a while, Liu Daming and Shen Rong were in a stable mood before they came over.

At this time, Liu Daming had a smile on his face, which was a lost smile.

Especially Shen Rong has become a family and has two sons, which makes him even more happy.

It's a pity that the child is no longer around, and he came to Jingao this time for the task.

Yang Xiaotao hurriedly moved his butt to the side, got out of the way, and the two sat down next to each other.

"Lao Hou, you know from our factory."

Liu Daming pointed at Hou Baowei, and Shen Rong had some impressions, "Uncle Hou, it's great that you're here too." ”

"Xiao Shen, you have changed so much over the years, I didn't recognize you."

"Haha"

"This is the youngest eighth-level fitter in our rolling mill, Yang Xiaotao."

Liu Daming then introduced.

Shen Rong saw Yang Xiaotao's young face and looked at Liu Daming curiously.

"This is, junior brother?"

The table was stunned.

"Hahaha"

Hou Baowei laughed, Liu Daming also blushed, and Yang Xiaotao touched his nose even more embarrassedly.

"Xiao Shen, if this is your junior brother, Lao Liu can jump into the sky."

Hou Baowei smiled, and the people around him who knew the situation also laughed.

"Go, go, laugh."

Liu Daming drove away the people who watched the joke, Shen Rong saw this, knew that he had said the wrong thing, and hurriedly explained, "I came in a hurry this time, I don't know the situation, master, what's going on?" ”

Liu Daming shook his head.

"He is self-taught, technical ability, in our factory, this is it."

Thumbs up as he spoke.

At this time, Shen Rong reacted, "I'm sorry, I thought..."

Yang Xiaotao waved his hand, "It's okay, it's okay, at my age, I was treated as an entourage when I first came." ”

"Well, who made me young?"

As he spoke, he raised his head proudly, and a group of old men around him looked at him with contempt.

"Hey, Tui."

"Phew, who's old?"

Although I don't accept the old, although I envy the young, but at this time, how can a group of old men get used to you?

Yang Xiaotao immediately shrank his head and communicated with Shen Rong.

At the table, Shen Rong only said what he could say.

In this way, Yang Xiaotao and the others also knew the task of coming this time.

Their coming here is not the end result.

Here, it is still the place of selection.

The difference is that they will conduct special training according to the task, and only those who meet the criteria will go to complete the final project.

Of course, those who can't meet the standards will be repatriated.

Everyone was sweating in their hearts when they heard this, if they were eliminated, how would they have a face?

……

In the dim light, the cramped conference room was full.

The faces of these people looked even yellower under the yellow light bulbs, and many of them held pen and paper in their hands, and their expressions were serious.

The middle-aged man in front of him was wearing a white shirt, as if he hadn't changed it all these years, washing it when it was dirty, breaking it, putting on a cotton jacket when it was cold, and rolling up his sleeves when it was hot.

It's as if this is called the white shirt is the most important thing, and I don't want to take it off for a moment.

And the same as him, there is also the plaid shirt underneath.

These clothes have a special meaning.

Wearing them, like, is able to feel your loved ones.

At this moment, whether it is a white shirt or a plaid shirt, his face is solemn.

"The data is correct?"

The muffled voice of the white shirt sounded, and everyone below looked at each other, and finally at the plaid shirt in front of them.

In the eyes of everyone, the plaid shirt loosened its neckline.

"According to our calculations, the problem with the simulation experiment was that the container could not be kept airtight under ultra-high pressure. We expect to maintain a high pressure of at least one second. ”

"If it's shorter than that, we can't guarantee the results of the experiment."

"In other words, this hidden danger may lead to the failure of the experiment."

"I can't even take that risk!"

Plaid shirt spoke unhurriedly, his voice was still a little hoarse, his face was even yellower, and the long-term malnutrition made him look even thinner.

Bai Yi was not surprised when he heard this, because of this matter, he already knew, he just wanted to confirm it again, because the peripheral manufacturing team was also under great pressure.

"Anyone else for comments?"

In the conference room, everyone shook their heads.

The white shirt nodded, and then the meeting ended.

In the end, there were only two people left in the room.

"Lao Ran, I hope you're right."

"You know, because of this, the commander-in-chief typed the report. Factories all over the country sent excellent workers to join the war! ”

"It's now in Lanzhou, thousands of miles away."

"If that's wrong."

The white shirt didn't say much, and both of them knew it in their hearts.

"Lao Zheng."

"I understand."

Plaid shirt said solemnly, "I talked to the production team through the gas, and the fuse seal they proposed has a big hidden danger. ”

"Especially under high temperature and high pressure, the thermal expansion and contraction of an object alone is enough to jump away."

"What's more, in that environment, I really don't know what they think."

The two were silent again, and then they both laughed again.

Over the years, they have also seen a lot of strange ideas.

"In that case, let's wait for the result."

The white shirt said leisurely, "However, is your request a drop?" ”

"Lao Huang of the production team asks me if I am allowed every time he sees me, and I avoid him when I eat now."

"That's your business, I'll just count it."

"Okay, you can do it, don't look for me about family matters!"

"Oh, Lao Zheng, the relationship between our family, what you said is out of sight!"

The plaid shirt suddenly became enthusiastic.

The white shirt also smiled and took a piece of paper out of his pocket.

"I've asked someone to inquire about you."

"Congratulations, more than two months ago, you became a grandfather, remember to invite me to dinner later!"

"More than two months? Grandfather? Yes! Hahaha"

"I'm a grandfather!"

After saying that, the plaid shirt grabbed the paper and ran out, and it didn't matter if he ate or not.

"This old man!"
