"This, please forgive the younger generation for being incompetent, I don't know why Mr. has such feelings?"

Wang Ruofeng's eyes moved slightly, swept from the corner of the other party's eyes, and noticed the helplessness hidden in Bao Ming's heart.

Bao Ming's expression was gloomy, and he smiled bitterly: "You should know about the previous strike." ”

"Of course I do. Could it be that Mr. has received some influence because of this incident?" Wang Ruofeng nodded, the previous strike had a very heavy impact, and the impact on Chang'an has been extended to the present, and it has not been dissipated until now.

"Huh. Nor can it be said to be an impact. It's just that I'm tired of it, after all, I've worked hard for so many years, but I didn't expect it to end up like this, what do you say let's do?" Bao Ming showed a hint of annoyance, obviously not very accepting of the government's disposal of Chang'an Iron and Steel Plant.

Wang Ruofeng was dumbfounded for a while, sensing that the other party was obviously quite unhappy with the government, and asked in a low voice: "This, what should I say?" His father used to be a soldier of the Red Phoenix Army, and he was also appointed as an official of one party, although he has long been old now, but he has considerable respect for the government, and under the influence of his ears and eyes, Wang Ruofeng naturally agrees with the current government, I don't know why Bao Ming has such a change.

"Alas. I told you that you don't understand, but I suddenly feel at a loss, after all, I don't have any other skills except polishing gears, and if I leave, I don't know where else to go. Bao Ming's eyes were dazed, and he didn't know where he should go next.

Indeed, if it is only based on the craftsmanship of grinding gears, Bao Ming is indeed first-class, through his hands, every gear is tightly sewn, and there will be no mistakes.

But this also has a problem, that is, the limitations of his craft are too small, and it is not useful in ordinary life, even if he wants to find a job, there is no other place to provide it except for this Chang'an Iron and Steel Plant.

If he let go of this craft, Bao Ming would be even more unwilling, after all, he had honed it day after day, year after year, and he was still reluctant to let it go.

Wang Ruofeng's heart moved slightly, and he hurriedly said, "Since this is the case, then you might as well come to me, how about it?"

"What can you have there?" Bao Ming snorted lightly, revealing a hint of suspicion.

Who doesn't know that in order to build this Chang'an Iron and Steel Plant, including the Su family and the government, at least tens of millions of dollars have been invested in the past ten years, so that it has today's strong capital, although because of Sun Peng's fire, the factory has lost a lot, but if it recovers, it is not something that others can fight.

Wang Ruofeng's body shook slightly, and then said: "Indeed, I am far less huge than the Chang'an Iron and Steel Plant, but I am also quite skilled in it, if you are willing to join, you will definitely be able to show your talents, instead of just being dull." ”

"Huh. Your breath is too big, isn't it? Bao Ming chuckled, but shook his head, and then said: "It's a pity that I'm no longer the one I used to bewitch, and you can't convince me with this argument." There was a hint of contempt in his words, after all, he had been in the Chang'an Iron and Steel Plant for a long time, so he had a trace of contempt for other factories.

Wang Ruofeng was not surprised, as a technician, he has always had his own arrogance.

He looked a little annoyed, and then complained, "Hah." You haven't asked me yet, how can you be so sure that my factory is not working? Anyway, the world's first mechanical paver that does not need to be pulled by rails and horses is born in my factory. ”

"Hmm, do you mean the paver that caused the disability of the farmer in Qin Zhidao?" Bao Ming asked with some curiosity.

If it were an ordinary person, he would only regard it as an exaggeration, but if it was the paver, Bao Ming had paid some attention, after all, this thing had caused a certain sensation, and the power device that made the whole machine work also made Bao Ming particularly curious, wanting to figure out its internal structure.

Wang Ruofeng was overjoyed in his heart, nodded and replied, "That's right." That's it. His expression darkened, revealing a little helplessness, and he complained: "It's a pity that because this thing is simple in Thailand, it caused this kind of accident, so I want to improve it and not do what happened before." He looked at Bao Ming with great sincerity and persuaded: "It is precisely because of this that I came here, I hope you can help me solve this problem." ”

"Well, you have confidence in me"

Bao Ming couldn't help but feel nervous, although his words were shirking, but his words couldn't help but be a little excited.

Wang Ruofeng noticed the change in the other party, and added: "Of course, why did I come to you otherwise? And no matter how difficult this matter is, can it still be sad that the lord raised troops back then? In this case, then why don't you go and try it with me, if you can really succeed, it will be a big event, and if it is famous in history, it is also possible." ”

"Okay. Then I'll listen to you. ”

Bao Ming also felt that the blood in his body seemed to be beginning to boil, and letting his ability be wasted was not what he wanted, if it could be used in this car, it might be able to play a certain role.

Qin Qing smiled: "Since you are willing, it will be very good." ”

Since they sat down and decided, the three of them came to Wang Ruofeng's factory together, because they had paid wages before, and the workers in the factory also stopped, not only taking advantage of this time to renovate the entire factory, but also repairing the mechanical paver, which did not look tattered before.

Seeing all this, the corners of Wang Ruofeng's mouth couldn't help but curl: "It seems that these workers are not unreasonable people, if they can pay their wages on time, they can also do things well." "After all, for those workers, of course, they would not do such a thing unless they had to.

Of course, for Bao Ming, everything here is not as good as the huge paver that is parked in the room.

He swept directly past the crowd, stepped on it, stroked the huge steam engine with his hand, and then complained: "Is this the paver you made?" In order to be able to drive this huge mechanical device, Wang Ruofeng and the others directly used a steam engine, although limited by size, weight, etc., this steam engine is the smallest model, but it is still the size of a person.

Wang Ruofeng closed his head and replied: "That's right, this is it." ”

"That's a good idea. It's a pity that the plan you are using is too rough. Bao Ming shook his head, obviously a little annoyed.

Wang Ruofeng was ashamed, and replied: "This, we were also in a hurry at the beginning, so we made it so simple, otherwise how would we find you? "When they first came up with this paver, they had already discovered that there were a lot of problems with this thing, and it often broke down after two or three days of walking, either the gear was stuck, or the axle was broken, and many problems appeared.

Therefore, He Sai and Zhou Peiling were stationed at the scene to ensure that the problem of the machine could be solved as soon as possible.

And they were also planning the second generation of pavers, but unfortunately before they could develop it, the accident had already happened.

Bao Ming knocked on the steam engine and said helplessly: "I won't say anything else, but this steam engine is the biggest problem." For safety and performance, this thing had to be replaced. The train is not bad, relying on the load-bearing of the rails, of course, it can be very large. But this paver can't do it, it can't be bigger by relying on its own power alone. And this steam engine not only needs a lot of fuel, but also produces high-temperature steam. These are all sources of danger that can cause problems anytime and anywhere if left unaddressed. ”

Just by looking at it, Bao Ming knew how unreliable this thing in front of him was, and it was no wonder that there would be a paver injury incident.

If it was placed in the Chang'an Iron and Steel Plant, this thing would not appear at all, and it would be directly vetoed for unreliable reasons.

"This, if this steam engine is replaced, then how should this thing work?" Wang Ruofeng was apprehensive, although he felt pity in his heart, but what the other party said also made sense, and he naturally couldn't refuse.

It's just that this steam engine is the power source of the paver, if there is no steam engine, then the whole paver is equivalent to being taken from the heart, and it is simply dead.

Bao Ming frowned for a while, and after thinking about it for a while, he said: "I know a person, if it were him, he should be able to solve this problem." I just don't know if you have the ability to invite this person. ”

"Who?" Wang Ruofeng asked.

Bao Ming took a deep breath, and then complained, "An Ai!"

"An Ai, do you mean An Ai, who once made a big fuss at Chongwen Academy, but was directly expelled?" Wang Ruofeng's heart tightened, and he couldn't help but feel nervous.

Speaking of this An Ai, but it is a strange person from Chongwen Academy, this person is quite talented, only less than fifteen years old when he stepped into Chongwen Academy by virtue of the identity of the champion, if this is the case, it is just that, the most important thing is that when An Ai was studying in Chongwen Academy, he actually spoke falsely, directly pointed out that the way of Confucius and Mencius is the way of hypocrisy, and thought that the way of the ancient sages was all evil and crooked, and promoted the theory of heavenly principles that he had made in Chongwen Academy.

His behavior naturally angered many students and teachers of Chongwen Academy, and he was directly kicked out of Chongwen Academy, becoming the first student in history to be dismissed.

Bao Ming nodded and replied, "That's right, it's this person." ”

"This. If it was him, it would be really bad. Wang Ruofeng's face deteriorated a lot, and he felt scared when he thought of An Ai's many actions.

This world is still the world of Confucianism, even though Xiao Feng has been promoting practical learning for many years and is committed to spreading the theory of learning from things, but Confucianism is still deep-rooted, and he is just an ordinary scholar, where can he dare to confront the great Confucian disciples?

Qin Qing was also curious, and asked, "That guy's whereabouts are a mystery, I don't know when you came into contact with him?"

As a technician, I was once invited by him to help him grind something, and that's when I learned about some of the things he had been doing lately. Bao Ming smiled bitterly: "Otherwise, where would I know about his existence?"

Although Wang Ruofeng felt nervous, when he thought of his current situation, if he didn't get a really working paver, then he including Zhou Peiling and others would really be doomed, so he asked: "In that case, can you help me introduce it?"

"Absolutely. It's just that I'm not sure if he's willing to help you. Bao Ming replied.

Wang Ruofeng was also nervous, and there was a bit of expectation in his eyes: "You don't have to worry about this, when I see him, I will naturally have a way to convince him." ”

Although they had made up their minds, it was dark now, so the two of them had to rest here for the night, and only the next day did they prepare to go to the place where Na'an Ai lived. According to Bao Ming's instructions, Wang Ruofeng chartered a carriage, and then drove the carriage towards the south.

The south of Chang'an is the Qinling Mountains, this area of the mountains is rugged, has always been a little inhabited, it is a good place for people to live in seclusion, since ancient times, there are many Taoist priests living in seclusion here.

Na Anai chose to settle here, probably because he wanted to avoid the world.

After walking for about a whole day, Wang Ruofeng and Bao Ming arrived at Qinling in the evening, because the next road was a mountain road, the two had to abandon the carriage, first stayed in the restaurant at the foot of the mountain for a night, and waited until the second day after eating and drinking enough before starting to climb the mountain, until noon, they came to a mountain cliff.

"Is that person living in seclusion here?" Wang Ruofeng frowned slightly, revealing a little doubt.

It's not that he is confused, but because there is a whole rock in front of him, and when he looks around, he can't see the slightest trace, and there is no trace of human life at all.

Bao Ming nodded and said, "That's right." The man is here. ”

He had been invited here by Na An Ai, so he remembered this place deeply, and after looking around, he walked to a rock.

Only then did Wang Ruofeng notice that in the center of this mountain stone, there was a palm-sized stone, this stone was a little special, the outside was bronze-colored, because it was covered by grass and trees, so if you didn't look carefully, you couldn't find it at all.

Bao Ming put his hand on the rock, and then slammed it down.

"Boom" sounded, and Wang Ruofeng was suddenly woken up, and when he looked up, he saw a stone on the edge of the cliff falling down, and when he was about to be afraid, he noticed that the speed of the stone seemed to be fast, but it was actually quite stable, so he was relieved.

"This, could it be that guy who made it?" Wang Ruofeng thought thoughtfully.

After about a few seconds, the rock fell and rested at the foot of the mountain.

Wang Ruofeng looked surprised, to be honest, he hadn't seen similar devices, but most of them relied on mechanical power to work, but there were no ropes outside this mountain rock, and there were no tracks on the cliff or anything, which made him curious, and wanted to know what kind of means were used to make it able to do it to such an extent.

Bao Ming stood up, beckoned to Wang Ruofeng, and complained, "You can come up now." ”

"This, if you sit on it, can you see that person?" Wang Ruofeng nodded, although his feet were standing on this mountain rock, he still felt hairy in his heart.

Bao Ming smiled: "That's right. And as you know, Mr. An doesn't like to meet people, which is why he came up with this mechanism. But if you see him, you can know that he is actually a very good person to get along with. Provided that you don't mess with him. ”

"Of course, I know. ”

Wang Ruofeng was worried, and his body rose with the rise of the mountain rocks, which made him feel uneasy, especially the mountain wind became more and more intense, which made him even more afraid, for fear that he would fall down accidentally.

This cliff is a hundred feet high, and if you fall down, you are afraid that you will be crushed.
