Chapter 1944 Planning of the Auto Repair Center

Wang Hao's words left Yang Xiaotao at a loss for words.

Because not far in front of him, there were five or six trucks parked.

They were lined up in a row, and in the middle, a particularly conspicuous Optimus Prime was parked there with a missile loaded on it.

Although most of the missile was covered with oilcloth, you could tell what it was by looking at its outline and the exposed parts.

"I don't know, but they seem to be refueling."

Yang Xiaotao looked carefully. Although these cars were parked outside the auto repair center, the ones in the front were obviously waiting for refueling.

Hao Pingchuan and Xiaobo frowned immediately when they saw the scene in front of them.

This time they followed Yang Xiaotao around everywhere, and although they were a little tired, the effect was obvious.

Nothing happened along the way.

Of course, Yu Zecheng and Zheng Chaoyang probably don’t know their whereabouts.

This change reminded Xiaobo of what Song Tao had said again.

There's a mole!
And now, he actually encountered a convoy here, which made him alert for no reason.

“There are quite a lot of people in this convoy!”

Hao Pingchuan looked at a group of people gathered not far away. Some were stretching their legs, some were eating and drinking. There were probably hundreds of people in total.

You can tell at first glance that these people are not locals. Why?

Because they were all the same as the four of them, wearing single-sleeved short-sleeved shirts.

"Boss Yang, do you want to go down and take a look?"

Wang Hao asked quietly at the side. Yang Xiaotao looked at the spot for a while, and thought there was no problem, so he said, "Let's go and take a look."

After saying that, Yang Xiaotao walked quickly forward, and the three people behind him hurriedly followed.

Xiaobo exchanged glances with Hao Pingchuan, and the two of them sped up and approached Yang Xiaotao.

"Stop, you are not allowed to approach here for the time being."

As soon as they got close, the four were stopped by the guards outside.

"Hello, comrade."

"We are from the Sijiucheng Red Star Machinery Factory. The gas station and auto repair center here are all opened by our factory."

"I came here for inspection. Here are my credentials."

Yang Xiaotao handed his ID to the other party and spoke seriously.

As for Xiaobo and Hao Pingchuan, they had no intention of revealing their identities.

The guard glanced at the four people, his gaze stayed on Hao Pingchuan for a moment, and then he began to check them carefully.

Then he handed the certificate back to Yang Xiaotao and said, "Wait a moment, I'll go ask for instructions."

After saying that, the man turned and ran away.

Yang Xiaotao and his three companions waited outside for a while. Just when they were getting impatient, the guard came over with a middle-aged man.

"Hello, I'm the captain of this team!"

"Due to some circumstances, the car needs to be refueled here, so I'm sorry for the intrusion!"

The middle-aged man wore glasses and spoke very kindly.

Yang Xiaotao also explained with a smile, "Hello, the four of us came here by train to check out the situation. We didn't expect to run into you!"

After Yang Xiaotao finished speaking, someone else came over from a distance.

The middle-aged man was about to speak when he heard someone shouting from the other side, "Boss Yang, why are you here?"

A few people looked in the direction of the sound and saw a sturdy man with a similar physique to Hao Pingchuan running towards them quickly.

"Niu Jun?"

Yang Xiaotao recognized who the person was in just a moment of distraction.

Niu Jun, originally the captain of the steel rolling mill's fleet, was later implicated in Li Huaide's reselling of materials and lost his position as captain.

However, this person is a good person, and finally because of Yang Youning's relationship, he became the team leader of the auto repair center.

Later, the machinery factory incorporated the machine repair factory, and the auto repair center expanded and began to extend beyond the old city.

He followed Che Wenwei and gradually became a backbone of the team.

"Boss Yang! It's really you. I couldn't believe it even from a distance!"

Niu Jun came up quickly, looking very excited.

The two shook hands, and Yang Xiaotao smiled and said, "Why is this unbelievable? I didn't expect that you would be the host of the Pengcheng station!"

Niu Jun shook his hand, "Yes! I was transferred here in June. There is a lot of work here, so I have been here until now. The next time I go back, it will probably be during the Chinese New Year!"

Niu Jun said with a smile, and then asked curiously, "Boss Yang, why are you here? The machinery factory didn't even tell us in advance!"

While talking, he nodded to Wang Hao, and the two of them knew each other.

As for Xiaobo and Hao Pingchuan, he didn't know them, but just nodded politely to express his acquaintance.

"Don't mention it. I was passing by here on my way back from Jinling, so I decided to come and see what's going on here."

As Yang Xiaotao spoke, Niu Jun immediately understood that this was a surprise inspection.

I secretly felt lucky.

Fortunately, I did not slack off and worked diligently during the past few months here, and the entire auto repair center is doing well.

Otherwise, if you were caught doing something wrong, the punishment would definitely be severe.

He heard a few days ago that the internal audit department of the factory went to the machine repair shop and found a lot of problems. Even the deputy director was punished, which made them very worried.

But Yang Xiaotao is the boss of the internal audit department.

And based on his understanding of Yang Xiaotao, this Mr. Yang is a man who does not play by the rules, and this time he will definitely be attacking by surprise.

Fortunately, fortunately.

"Boss Yang, let's go in and talk."

"If the comrades in the station heard that you were here, they would definitely welcome you!"

"Row!"

Yang Xiaotao also wanted to find a place to rest.

Niu Jun spoke enthusiastically and led the four people inside.

The middle-aged man behind him didn't stop them when he saw it. After all, this was someone else's territory and they were just doing their routine.

Now that someone is leading them, they can’t do anything.

"Who are these people?"

When Yang Xiaotao passed by the gas station, he saw many people wearing glasses in the crowd. Nowadays, people who wear glasses are not 100% intellectuals, but 80% to 90% of them are.

"I don't know. They came this morning. The leader came with a note saying they needed to refuel, but he didn't tell me the specific reason."

"I also came to the gas station to check out the situation. I heard that someone was from Sijiu City, so I came out to take a look!"

"Oh, by the way, Lao Sun is the manager of the gas station, an old man from our chemical factory." "He is probably talking to the leader of the fleet right now. Call him over after we are done..."

Niu Jun walked inside while talking and introduced the situation of the auto repair center.

In addition to the workplace, the entire auto repair center also has a workers' canteen, a dormitory, and an open space at the back.

It can be said that it occupies a large area, at least larger than a courtyard house.

In Pengcheng, it is considered a fairly large factory.

When following Niu Jun in, Yang Xiaotao saw several tractors and tricycles on the line. Judging from the brands, they were a mix of things and should be local products.

This is why the auto repair center is so large.

These days, if a machine breaks down, you either fix it yourself, have someone from the factory fix it, or send it back to the factory.

There aren't many places like the auto repair center that specialize in repairing agricultural machinery.

What's more, tractors, tricycles and even motorcycles and trucks manufactured by the machinery factory can all be repaired and maintained here, so the auto repair center never has to worry about having no work every day!
At this moment, a group of people in various clothes were busy working, with clanging sounds and the collision of wrenches and machines.

"The people here, those wearing blue work clothes are our workers, and the rest are apprentices recruited from the local area."

"But they all learn quickly. Some of them have worked in the repair industry before, so it won't take long for them to be able to stand up."

"We have thirty people here this time, some have been here for half a year, some have been here for three months, so we're taking turns!"

Niu Jun introduced as he walked, and it was obvious that he was very familiar with the situation here.

Many people along the way were looking at Yang Xiaotao and his group. They didn't know the newcomers, but the old people who had just arrived put down their work after seeing Yang Xiaotao and started introducing him to the newcomers around them.

When they arrived at the station, Niu Jun clapped his hands and shouted, "Comrades, come here."

Soon, those who knew the situation and those who didn't gathered together.

At a rough glance, there were about a hundred people.

Yang Xiaotao looked at the people approaching. Many of them recognized him and were greeting him with a smile.

He also waved to everyone, very friendly.

"Comrades, let me introduce you to this person, the chief designer of the Red Star Machinery Factory, Comrade Yang Xiaotao!"

“A warm welcome to everyone!”

Papapa

Led by the old man, there was a burst of loud applause in the auto repair center.

Even those who came here for repairs were curious when they heard that the factory leaders from Sijiu City had come.

Yang Xiaotao waved his hands and waited for the applause to stop before saying, "Hello, comrades from Pengcheng Station..."

"On behalf of the Machinery Factory and the Machine Repair Factory, I would like to thank everyone for their hard work. It is because of your efforts that the revolutionary construction has made great strides forward..."

Yang Xiaotao made an impassioned speech in front of the crowd. Even without any preparation, he was able to improvise and spread spiritual chicken soup and revolutionary passion to everyone.

"Here, I want to make a request to the workers coming from Sijiu City, that is, do your best to teach your students, and don't hold back, because in the days to come, you will have more equipment, more cars, and all kinds of unexpected problems waiting to be solved."

“Your future will be a journey of continuous learning and progress.”

"Teach them what you have learned as soon as possible, and then go learn more!"

Bang bang bang bang
The old people applauded enthusiastically, and they would just laugh it off if someone else said this.

But since these words came from Yang Xiaotao's mouth, they must be true.

Because Yang Xiaotao has this ability.

"I also have something to say to the comrades who have just joined the big family of the machinery factory."

“I hope you can learn with an open mind, study seriously, and study solidly.”

"Learn this skill as soon as possible!"

"This way you will become new masters and take on new positions!"

Papapa

This time the applause was even louder!

Yang Xiaotao was very satisfied with everyone's reactions, and at the same time he had some more ideas in his mind.

After finishing their conversation, Wang Hao and the other two went to the dormitory that had been arranged for them to rest.

Niu Jun called several heads of auto repair centers over, and everyone went into the office together.

Among them, three are from Sijiu City and everyone knows them, and the other two are locals.

One was arranged by the local Pengcheng staff, responsible for the supply of daily necessities, his name was Wang Qing.

The auto repair center is considered a large factory in Pengcheng, especially with its connection to the Red Star Machinery Factory, and the local people attach great importance to it.

The other is the head of the security department, named Liu Wu.

This is also for safety reasons.

After all, the county magistrate is not as good as the current manager, and a strong dragon cannot suppress a local snake.

With the protection of these people, some dirty things can be prevented a lot.

When the few people met, they naturally had a great conversation.

Yang Xiaotao's affirmation of the work made everyone happy.

This means that he will receive a handsome reward after returning to Sijiu City.

After learning about the situation at the auto repair center, Yang Xiaotao asked about some local conditions in Pengcheng.

“I see that the station repairs a lot of tractor brands. Are they all local brands?”

Niu Jun glanced at a few people and finally looked at Wang Qing.

Wang Qing coughed lightly and replied, "Boss Yang, these tractors and tricycles are not our Pengcheng brands."

"In other words, the products produced by local machinery manufacturers are not popular."

"what reason?"

Wang Qing showed a trace of embarrassment on his face. Niu Jun beside him explained, "The tractors produced here have too many problems. At the beginning, all the tractors sent to us were their products."

“Later, local authorities introduced products from surrounding provinces and cities.”

Yang Xiaotao nodded, and then asked, "It seems that you are not opposed to products from other places!"

Wang Qing shook his head. "I am incompetent. If I don't do anything, the people will criticize me!"

Yang Xiaotao smiled and then said to Niu Jun, "I've taken a look. Our auto repair center is not small. It's also very close to the train station, so transportation is convenient."

“If feasible, this could serve as a sales point for the machinery factory’s products.”

"In this way, our products, such as tractors, tricycles, motorcycles, etc., can be sold here and can also be brought back for repair..."

Yang Xiaotao expressed his ideas a long time ago, when it was still a steel mill, he proposed the plan to build an auto repair center. At that time, he wanted to use it to extend the influence of the steel mill.

It’s just that at that time, the steel rolling mill was still a bit unjustified and some areas could not be designed.

Now, the machinery factory is fully capable of taking on this responsibility.

Let’s start from Pengcheng.
