"Okay, since it's settled, let's divide the work."

Liu Huaimin set the tone.

Yang Youning and Wang Guodong discussed it slightly and then spoke.

His eyes swept over the people below, all of them straightened up, wanting to take the task under their names.

"Old Sun."

The first one is to name Sun Guo, after all, the strength of the first workshop is still there.

"I'll hand over the lid to your workshop. I remember that Lao Guo had an iron plate relief in one hand and asked him to come. ”

Sun Guo nodded, but then shook his head, "Factory director, this iron plate relief has something to do with the thickness of the steel, and Lao Guo has been working as a hammer in recent years, and this craft is only afraid of falling." ”

Yang Xiaotao frowned slightly when he heard this, this is a traditional craft.

But it can't be done, it's not this for the exam, you still have to take a sledgehammer!

"Let him try first."

"Good!"

"The words on the pot body, old Zhan. You are responsible. ”

Zhan Lei, the director of the second workshop, patted his chest and promised, "This is simple!" ”

"Everyone else is ready, and if there is any need, they must cooperate."

"In particular, the propaganda section has paid close attention to this matter from the higher authorities, and once it is decided, the propaganda section will play a role in letting the vast number of revolutionary compatriots understand our pressure cooker and the rolling mill."

Yang Youning focused on the Propaganda Section, and he was very dissatisfied with the work of the Propaganda Section for a while, and it did not achieve the effect of raising propaganda at all.

"Understood."

Director Li nodded, looked at the people behind him again, and memorized them one by one with a notebook, but he didn't know if he could write good sentences.

"Others too. Be prepared. Rise to the task. ”

"Yes!"

At that moment, the meeting ended and the crowd dispersed.

When Yang Xiaotao returned to the office, he found the letter paper, began to practice calligraphy, and wrote twice according to the existing manual.

On the side, Lou Xiao'e kept quiet throughout the whole process, until Yang Xiaotao finished writing the last word, then moved his arm and handed the two pieces of letter paper to Lou Xiao'e.

"Send it to Secretary Liu."

Lou Xiao'e looked at the pen words like iron and silver hooks, and couldn't help but praise, "Factory director, how did you practice this character?" ”

"Usually it doesn't look very good, how can I get serious, it's very comfortable to watch."

Yang Xiaotao was holding a kettle to drink water, and by the way, he moved his fingers, and almost squirted out when he heard Lou Xiao'e speak, "What's not so good?" I don't know. ”

"Hurry up and send it over."

Lou Xiao'e glanced at Yang Xiaotao, didn't understand how Yang Xiaotao practiced the word, and turned around and left the office.

Yang Xiaotao was not worried about the carving of the pot lid, so he got up and walked to the first workshop.

When I came to a workshop, I saw a group of people around, and Liu Daming was holding a small hammer in his hand outside and kept watching, and the sound of ping pong came from time to time inside.

"Liu Yifu, what are you fitters doing with our hammer?"

Before he passed, he heard a person scolding Liu Daming, Yang Xiaotao looked at it, it was a thin old man, about the same age as Liu Daming, but if he looked closely, the muscles on his arms were sharp and angular, and he knew that the strength was not small at a glance.

"Hey, old hemp stick, it's often not good to hold it, and you're not the only one playing with a hammer."

"Hmph, even you dare to play? And I'm not afraid to smash my own feet. ”

"You can't smash your long-eyed feet."

"Shut up and don't talk."

The two were still fighting, and suddenly there was a angry shout from inside, and although they were not angry, they didn't dare to speak.

Yang Xiaotao saw Liu Daming like this, and Liu Yifrustration, who is usually hard at everyone, was actually stopped, and he immediately became interested.

Walking to the front, Liu Daming and the old man nodded and said hello when they saw each other, and Yang Xiaotao walked into the crowd with a smile.

In the middle, an old man was holding a small hammer and knocking it again and again, Yang Xiaotao saw that the person was a little taller than the old hemp rod, and he had more muscles, but the difference was that his hair was almost gray.

Sun Guo on the side was holding a flashlight and shining it on the lid of a pressure cooker.

Yang Xiaotao didn't speak, just watched carefully.

This person should be 'Lao Guo', I heard that this craft is passed down from the ancestors, after the liberation into the rolling mill by virtue of the iron-making craft became a forger, now it seems that this ancestral craft has not fallen.

Everyone held their breath and watched carefully.

Half an hour later, a woman's head appeared faintly, and the three-dimensional sense of concave and convex made people feel as if they were floating.

Looking at the appearance of seven or eight points similar to the woman on the one yuan, and the hair is layered, Yang Xiaotao was shocked when he saw it on the side.

Lao Guo moved his wrist and sat on the side to rest.

This half an hour took a lot of energy.

Yang Xiaotao turned around and beckoned someone casually, "Let Master Zhang from the second canteen make a plate of braised pork, more of it, and get some steamed buns to prepare, and eat it later." ”

The man swallowed his saliva and immediately ran away after understanding something.

"You go to Lou Xiao'e and bring some sugar."

Another person was ordered, and the man ran away quickly.

Yang Xiaotao's arrangement, everyone around listened, and Sun Guo helped Lao Guo up.

"Master Guo, your craftsmanship is really good."

Yang Xiaotao gestured with his thumb, Lao Guo's face was long and thin, and there were two tufts of white mustache on his lips.

"Director Xiao Yang, don't, don't say that."

"It's far worse than your craft."

Yang Xiaotao shook his head, "You have a specialization in the art industry, you have this old craft, don't say it's me, even this rolling mill can't find a second one." ”

"I really admire."

"Alas, when I was old, if I was young, I could knock it out in one breath, and now, I am also rusty."

"It's okay, as long as it can be done."

Yang Xiaotao said, Lou Xiao'e ran over in a hurry outside, holding a kettle and a white paper bag in her left hand, and an enamel jar in her right hand.

"Factory director, this is the sugar you want."

Yang Xiaotao took it, and then put a handful of sugar in the jar, and Lou Xiao'e poured water into it, "Master, you still have to work hard in this job." ”

Guo Lao took a big sip of the enamel jar, and then shook his head in admiration, "It's so sweet!" ”

After speaking, he drank the water tons and tons, "Don't worry, this matter will be done for you today." ”

After speaking, Guo Lao picked up the hammer again and knocked it little by little.

Yang Xiaotao got up and went to the second workshop when he saw it, here, the same group of people gathered together, and the three people in the middle were each guarding a pressure cooker and were holding a carving knife to carve intently.

Yang Xiaotao looked at it for a while, and the carving was obviously lower than the relief technology, but several people were still nervous about carving.

Finally, when he came to the tenth workshop, Huang Degong was checking the production status.

Yang Xiaotao watched for a while, and now the workshop is divided into three groups, and the production of heating stoves and drilling machines continues.

However, the trend of the two after the Chinese New Year is different, and the orders for heating stoves have begun to decrease, while the orders for drilling rigs have increased.

Of course, the order for the drilling machine is much less than the other two, if it is not for the steam power involved, the production is not small, Yang Xiaotao really wants to send it to the branch.

"Lao Huang, in the past few days, I have asked workers to make more pressure cookers, and the other two projects can be put first."

When Huang Degong heard it, he immediately understood, "You mean, this pressure cooker is going up?" ”

"Do you think, if it is done this time, as soon as the country is promoted, do you think it will still be like this?"

Yang Xiaotao smiled, and then looked at the production line, "Don't talk about the distance, just a few big cities in our country, do you think the consumption power of the population will be less?" ”

"Besides, this time I'm going abroad, and I can't say that foreign orders will come."

"The current output can't keep up with the pace when the time comes."

Huang Degong opened his mouth wide, he never thought about this, in his heart, it would be good to be able to support construction at home, this abroad? Isn't it just a gift? Is it possible to sell it?

He really didn't think about it that much.

"Okay, okay, I'll adjust it and start working tomorrow."

At this moment, Huang Degong thought of this pressure cooker going abroad, and his psychology surged with boiling power.

When it was time to get off work, Yang Xiaotao left a few people to take care of it, and at the same time arranged for the people from the security department to guard it carefully, and then let the others get off work.

Say hello to Liu Yulan, I guess I'll go back very late tonight, or even tomorrow.

Liu Yulan also heard that the matter was urgent, and said that she would definitely make it clear to Ran Qiuye.

When the workers left the rolling mill one after another, Yang Xiaotao asked Guo Lao and a few overtime workers to come to the second canteen together.

When several people saw the prepared meal, their eyes lit up.

Yang Youning and Wang Guodong also came over, Sun Guozhan Lei followed, and several masters ate a meaningful meal in their lives under the accompaniment of a group of rolling mill leaders.

After eating, Yang Youning and the two left, and Yang Xiaotao stayed in the factory and returned to the workshop with a few masters.

Yang Xiaotao and Sun Guo came to the first workshop to help, and they must get this pot done tonight.

Taking advantage of Guo Lao's burning kung fu with a musket, Yang Xiaotao pulled Sun Guo to the side.

"Uncle Sun, you smoke?"

Yang Xiaotao took a lighter and hit the flames and came to Sun Guo.

Sun Guo pinched his cigarette and lit it closely.

"You kid."

Hearing Yang Xiaotao's title, Sun Guo understood what was going on.

"Is it Lao Guo's idea?"

Yang Xiaotao laughed, and put the cigarette and lighter he had just opened on the side of the machine, "I can't hide anything from your fiery eyes." ”

"You don't come, bury me."

"No, no, no, no."

Sun Guo took two sharp sips, "Actually, if you don't say it, I'll bring it up too." ”

Yang Xiaotao was stunned for a moment, and his face was even more happy.

Sun Guo saw him like this, and then smiled, "Old Guo, you are old, and you have to pick a sledgehammer, alas." ”

"He has reached the top of the fifth-level forging in his life. So."

Yang Xiaotao hurriedly nodded, "Don't worry, this old Guo's craftsmanship, go to the R&D department, I will give him the same treatment as Liu Yifu." ”

"If he can bring out an apprentice and bring one, I will personally subsidize ten yuan per month."

"What I'm talking about, it definitely counts."

Yang Xiaotao is eager in his heart, this craft is not bad even if it is a machine stamping in the last generation.

What's more, this kind of craftsman is more valuable than a machine in some areas.

"I know that you kid can pull everything into it, but this time, you can be regarded as picking up a treasure."

Sun Guo was also relieved when he heard Yang Xiaotao say this, and put the cigarette and lighter on the machine in his pocket.

Yang Xiaotao was thinking in his heart, if it wasn't for the gift of the pressure cooker this time, he really didn't know that there was such a capable person in the rolling mill.

"Uncle Sun, what other capable people do you have, please introduce them together."

Ahem

Sun Guo choked on the smoke and quickened his pace, "It's gone, it's gone." ”

"Really? I don't believe it. ”

"It's gone."

"Okay, I'll ask Lao Yang."

Ahem

"You kid don't wait for the insatiable, alas, I tell you, there is a little man in the fourth workshop, don't talk about this, otherwise Dong Da will definitely look for me."

"Uh-huh"

"That guy's craftsmanship of hollowing out and gilding is also a family heirloom."

"What else?"

"And the seven workshops."

"Uh-huh, hehe-hey"

In the empty workshop, Yang Xiaotao approached Sun Guo and laughed from time to time, making Guo Lao, who was about to use his hands, shiver.

Three o'clock in the morning, a workshop.

Sun Guo was already asleep, and Guo Lao rubbed his head and moved his waist.

Yang Xiaotao held the lid of the pressure cooker that had just been made and leaned under the electric light to look at it carefully.
