Scholars in the courtyard.

Chapter 1535 Hammer and Knife
The next day, it was already dawn when Yang Xiaotao and Lao Jin were woken up by a phone call.

Yang Xiaotao quickly picked up the phone, and it was Wang Dahai on the other end of the phone.

"Brother, the things are already on the way. We will send you as much as we find. It's a transport truck. We have to thank Lao Liu for this..."

A tired voice came from the phone, but Yang Xiaotao was grateful.

"Brother, thank you for your hard work..."

"Hey, it doesn't matter, our relationship is here, it's just a joke!"

"That's right, I'm being pretentious. Let's find a day to pass and get the wine ready!"

"I'm just waiting for your words! By the way, if it's not enough, we'll find it for you!"

"it is good!"

After hanging up the phone, Yang Xiaotao calmed down.

"How about it?"

Lao Jin asked, and Yang Xiaotao nodded, "It seems that we have found a lot. The train started to leave last night, and we will probably arrive at noon!"

After Yang Xiaotao went out, "I'll arrange for someone to guide them."

Lao Jin nodded after listening.

At noon.

Yang Xiaotao and Lao Jin drove out of the city, and not long after they saw a truck appearing on the road, the Yellow River Heavy Truck.

The straw at the back of the carriage was filled to the brim.

The two of them waved quickly, and then the car stopped.

The seven trucks following behind stopped one after another.

A person jumped out of the leading car first. Yang Xiaotao looked at it and immediately stepped forward.

"Chief Huo, thank you for your hard work."

Yang Xiaotao held hands. This person was Huo Lin, the security section chief of Quancheng No. 1 Machinery Factory.

The former section chief has been promoted because of his meritorious service in assisting Director Yu in arresting the enemy.

"Mr. Yang!"

Chief Huo nodded, "We are the first batch of convoys. The factory director is afraid of delaying you, so he asked us to set off overnight."

"There will be a second batch later."

"Right now, the entire Quancheng City is collecting straw. After the local leaders heard about it, they issued approval slips to prioritize the needs of the machinery factory..."

As Chief Huo narrated, Yang Xiaotao pressed his lips to his lips, feeling a million emotions in his heart but not knowing how to express them.

He didn't expect that just asking Wang Dahai to do a favor would make the entire Quan City rush for him.

I was both moved and proud.

I am moved by those people and proud that the country has such people.

When Comrade Lao Jin heard this, he was secretly speechless.

I originally thought that Yang Xiaotao was just looking for someone to help, but he just mobilized most of the city to help.

This is not a command mission, it is a simple favor.

A favor can make this happen. If you cooperate with the orders of your superiors, then...
Isn’t that the answer to a hundred responses?
'This boy seems to have some magic power about him. '

Lao Jin put away his surprise and stood aside silently looking at the approaching truck.

Is this the model that defeated Shanghai Automobile in the election?

This time, I want to try it myself.

"Thank Director Wang, Director Liu, and all the workers for me."

"Thank you to the leaders of Quancheng for me!"

"I also want to thank the people of Quancheng for me!"

"Thank you!"

Yang Xiaotao shook Chief Huo's hand and said solemnly.

Chief Huo shook his head and then smiled, "Director Wang expected you to say this before coming here. He also said that if you really want to thank you, go to Quancheng and have a drink then!"

Yang Xiaotao laughed, "Brother Wang said this! He didn't run away!"

Everyone around laughed when they heard this.

Yang Xiaotao then directed everyone to get on the bus and go to Yangjiazhuang.

So, the convoy started again and moved forward along the road.

In the jeep in front of us, Yang Xiaotao was driving, and Director Huo was sitting in the passenger seat.

Comrade Lao Jin also went to the truck behind, saying he wanted to see what was unusual about the Yellow River heavy truck. In fact, he could see that Director Huo had something to tell Yang Xiaotao.

After the car drove for a while, Director Huo said, "Mr. Yang, before you come here, Director Wang asked me to give you a message."

Yang Xiaotao looked sideways at Section Chief Huo, then nodded, "Say it!"

"Director Wang said, thank you to the comrades in the machinery factory!"

"What?"

"The factory director said that this time you showed off your muscles, but you beat a lot of people!"

"It shocked Xiao Xiao."

Huo Lin patted his thigh and said happily.

Hearing this, Yang Xiaotao was silent for a moment, pondering the meaning of Huo Lin's words.

When he went to Quancheng Machinery Factory for the first time, it was this person who picked him up at the station with guards.

At that time, he still remembered that this man was very disdainful when he talked about the deputy director of the machinery factory.

In many subsequent contacts, Huo Lin always stood by Wang Dahai's side with a clear-cut stance.

So this person is Wang Dahai's confidant.

And what he said is probably similar to what he said in other places.

"Thank you!"

Huo Lin was stunned for a moment, not understanding what it meant, but he quickly recalled something and said immediately, "It should be thank you."

Chief Huo looked at the road ahead and said softly, "Those guys are making a lot of noise in the factory. If Director Wang and Director Liu hadn't built a tight fence, they would have caused trouble a long time ago."

"But they seem to have forgotten that there is our hammer on that blood-red flag!"

Yang Xiaotao suddenly laughed.

Because he thought that on the construction site of the greenhouse, in addition to their hammers, there was also Mr. Yang’s sickle.

And what they do together is not the cooperation of hammer and sickle?

"That's well said!"

Cars arrived at Yangjiazhuang one after another. Yang Dazhuang and others who had been waiting at the entrance of the village saw them and immediately directed them to the threshing floor of the village.

At this moment, the threshing floor has been cleared, the snow and weeds have been pushed aside, and many people are busy leveling the ground.

Soon the truck arrived at the threshing floor under the operation of the driver, and then unloaded the straw from the truck.

After all eight trucks were unloaded, Yang Xiaotao took Officer Huo back to the machinery factory. After returning to the factory, Yang Xiaotao asked Chang Mingjie to lead someone to load the prepared machine tools. After returning to the office, Yang Xiaotao explained the situation to Liu Huaimin.

"Uncle Liu!"

In the office, Liu Huaimin was immersed in processing documents. When Yang Xiaotao came in, he just raised his head and glanced.

Hearing Yang Xiaotao speak, Liu Huaimin nodded, "You are not busy in Yangjiazhuang, why are you back?"

"I just wanted to say hello to you."

After Yang Xiaotao sat down, he told about his trip to the countryside in the past two days.

"If you need anything, you can call the machinery factory. I'll come back when things get back on track there."

Yang Xiaotao finished explaining the situation and prepared to leave.

Unexpectedly, Liu Huaimin suddenly said, "Wait a minute."

Yang Xiaotao turned around and saw Liu Huaimin taking out an envelope from the drawer.

"This is for you, the reward given by Mr. Chen after the Morning Star engine was made last time."

"Reward? Just me?"

Yang Xiaotao immediately stepped forward to take the envelope, but Liu Huaimin shook his head after hearing this, "I gave our machinery factory a second-class collective merit, and you are an individual first-class merit."

"Other comrades who participate in R&D and production will also be rewarded accordingly."

Yang Xiaotao felt relieved when he heard that everyone else had it.

As he was about to open the envelope, Liu Huaimin spoke again, "I heard that you asked Lao Yang to go to Changchun to recruit people?"

"Ah, did Lao Yang tell you?"

"You need Lao Yang to tell me that the director of the Changchun Research Institute came to visit and called Mr. Xia."

"Why does Lao Yang make such a fuss about poaching someone?"

Yang Xiaotao was speechless. If he had known that such an honor would be exposed, he might as well have gone in quietly.

Obviously Lao Yang hasn't learned the essence of poaching yet.

"What did Mr. Xia say?"

Yang Xiaotao was more concerned about what happened next. Regardless of whether the other party knew it or not, he had to get the person over first.

Liu Huaimin glanced at Yang Xiaotao and said angrily, "What else can you say? Let us resolve it privately."

Then he added, "Respect personal opinions!"

Yang Xiaotao understood as soon as he heard it, it still depends on whether the person is willing to come.

But now he is too busy to care about it. How can he have time to visit the thatched cottage?

"Forget it, I gained it but lost my life!"

Yang Xiaotao sighed and prepared to leave.

Liu Huaimin's voice came from behind again.

"You are so young and I feel sorry for you. If you have time, go to the workshop and rub parts for me."

Hearing this, Yang Xiaotao ran away.

Back in the workshop, Yang Xiaotao handed two bottles of liquor and two cigarettes to Huo Lin and took them back to Wang Dahai.

Then he took out two more boxes of cigarettes and gave them to Huolin.

Afterwards, the matter here was handed over to Chang Mingjie, who wanted to go back to Yangjiazhuang to check the situation.

……

Taking Comrade Lao Jin with them, when the two returned to Yangjiazhuang again, a long line of trucks came outside the village.

Only when I got closer did I realize that there were people coming from Quancheng to transport straw, there were people transporting steel pipe racks here from the No. 1 branch factory, and there were people transporting wooden boxes here from the lumber factory.

People from all three parties came together, but there was only one road into the village. It was muddy after the snow, and many cars were blocked on the road.

Yang Xiaotao got off the car, looked at the anxious Yang Dazhuang in front of him, and immediately stepped forward to ask about the situation.

"Uncle Da Zhuang, please arrange for someone to take over and transport the steel pipe rack directly to the school playground."

"The wooden boxes are placed in the brigade headquarters, and the straw is still in the threshing floor."

"Leave this to me!"

Seeing Yang Xiaotao coming, Yang Dazhuang finally breathed a sigh of relief, then turned around to make arrangements.

Yang Xiaotao stood at the intersection and then acted as a traffic officer.

I just stood on the side of the road and looked at the potholes on the road, and secretly decided that when I had the time, I would build the road.

If we want to develop, we must build roads.

Otherwise, how can we walk in rainy and snowy weather?
In the evening, under the command of Yang Xiaotao, the mission was finally completed.

After the car unloaded the goods and returned the same way, Yangjiazhuang was busy with work.

In the school, Yang Xiaotao led someone to organize the brackets.

This time, the first branch factory only delivered six sets of greenhouse brackets as planned, but they were mixed together after delivery, which required everyone to separate them.

Here, Yang Xiaotao led people to sort out. On the threshing floor, a group of people were transporting bundles of straw to the village in wheelbarrows.

In the village, every household lights up kerosene lamps and rushes to make straw curtains all night long.

Under the lamp, Mr. Yang was holding straw and playing with it on the straw rope stand. As his rough fingers twisted, a slender straw rope soon appeared in front of him.

Beside the grandfather, there were circles of ready-made straw ropes.

Lao Jin was learning from the sidelines, but the straw ropes he made varied in thickness and were easy to break.

Ms. Cui on the side complained a lot.

However, Lao Jin ignored him and continued to study seriously.

During this trip to Sijiucheng, I had a lot of work to do, but my body felt much better, and I even felt more at ease when sleeping!

He even suddenly felt that this kind of life was more interesting than reading newspapers and walking around in Shanghai.

On the other side, Ran Qiuye and Ms. Cui were tying the arranged straw together with straw ropes, which had been rolled up several times behind them.

Each handful of straw was tied with two ropes. Ran Qiuye tied it on the head and Ms. Cui tied it on the bottom. The two of them cooperated quickly.

In the front, Zhang Qing was responsible for sorting the straw and passing it to the two people.

As for the three boys at home, they are rolling on the straw at the moment. With the eldest brother Duanwu taking them, where can they live peacefully?
But I didn't have the time to take care of them at this time, so I just let them play by themselves.

"Teacher Ran, are you okay?"

There was a shout at the door, and Ran Qiuye glanced at it. It was the person responsible for transporting straw.

He quickly looked back and saw that the curtain was obviously not long enough, and then shouted.

"Not yet, wait for the next time!"

"it is good!"

After the man finished speaking, he pulled the car and walked towards the next house. Soon, the sound of Yang Dazhuang's family came from next door, causing the people in the house to speed up again.

We are all from the same village, and it would be a shame to be pulled down too many.

Only Mr. Yang worked unhurriedly, taking a puff from his pipe and pot from time to time, and then chatting with Comrade Lao Jin, keeping a very steady rhythm.
