Scholars in the courtyard.

Chapter 1991 is only third-rate (please give me a monthly ticket!)

After a round of pouring, Old Chen picked up the wine glass and started serving wine as the host of the place.

Next came Mr. Huang, and after everyone took turns, almost everyone drank more than half a pound.

Fortunately, the cups used were not big, otherwise these two bottles of wine would not be enough to drink.

Yang Xiaotao naturally became the busiest person in the entire factory, drinking, pouring, and drinking again.

Even the time for eating is less.

This is the disadvantage of sitting at the same table with the boss, you can’t eat enough.

After three rounds of drinking, everyone was drunk.

Yang Xiaotao was pressed into a chair by Mr. Huang and asked about the machinery factory.

As for Mr. Chen and others who had poor alcohol tolerance, they went to the office to rest first. Only Mr. Huang and Mr. Zhang were sitting at the table.

Yang Xiaotao talked about the recent situation of the machinery factory, especially the machine tool workshop.

Mr. Huang was very concerned about the research and development of machine tools. The rapid development of their Ministry of Machine Tools was due to the new machine tools.

"By the way, what is your assault vehicle?"

Mr. Zhang's face was a little red, and his speech was a little shaky due to the alcohol.

"Mole Assault Vehicle?"

"Yes, it is this Mole Assault Vehicle."

Old Zhang took a sip of tea to sober up. "I heard that Annan seemed to have suffered a great defeat. The assault vehicles we sent to support them were swarmed and destroyed by their planes."

"I heard that the alliance is asking us to provide another batch of support. This is a huge order."

"I've heard about this too."

Mr. Huang said, holding a cigarette in his hand, "You said you don't want to fight a good guerrilla war, but you have to try to hit a stone with an egg. Do you think you can win?"

"You don't even know your own weight, but you insist on trying to learn from others and become fat in one bite."

"Yeah, there's no air superiority here, so don't worry about anything."

As Mr. Zhang spoke, he thought of the engine that was still under experimentation, and his heart tightened.

Yang Xiaotao nodded silently at the side. The original purpose of manufacturing the Mole Assault Vehicle was to be used for assault, and the tactic to coordinate with it was not a large-scale cluster assault, as that would only make it a target for helicopters.

The best way is to demonstrate high speed and high mobility in guerrilla warfare.

Those guys in Annan didn’t fail to learn enough, but they were too rampant.

There are no tigers in the mountains, and the monkeys are kings.

"Then we have to be prepared and make the money."

As Yang Xiaotao spoke, both Mr. Huang and Mr. Zhang started laughing.

The "limited support" proposed by Yang Xiaotao at the beginning now seems to be very wise.

If they provide free support, they will suffer losses regardless of whether the other party wins or loses.

Unlike now, even if Bei'an fails, they will not lose money as long as the alliance gives them money.

As for whether the other party will take advantage of the situation, haha, do you really think that the 17th parallel is just talk?

While they were talking, Old Qin stood up and left the reception room.

At the door, two aircraft factory personnel who had followed came forward upon seeing him.

Mr. Qin might have drunk too much, and he was walking unsteadily. The two men hurried forward to support him.

In the corridor, the security personnel of the machinery factory who were in charge of guarding did not pay any attention when they saw it. Those who came out were all leaders, and their main purpose here was to protect their safety.

The three of them walked as if they were looking for a place to rest.

It wasn't until we reached the door of an office that someone opened it and walked in.

The security guard took a look and thought it should be Mr. Yang's office.

Seeing this, the security guard prepared to go forward to check, after all, the things in Mr. Yang's office were too important.

As soon as I walked to the door, I saw Lou Xiao'e sitting inside.

Since Secretary Lou was there, they felt more or less relieved and stood at the door.

The three of them entered the office, and Lou Xiao'e immediately stepped forward to help.

She knew Mr. Qin and knew that he was the boss of the logistics department.

Lou Xiao'e was very polite about this.

At this time, Qin Lao and the other two saw the drawings on the table, and then they exchanged glances.

"Comrade Xiao'e, I know you."

Old Qin leaned back in his chair, smelling heavily of alcohol, but he praised Lou Xiao'e, "Yang Xiaotao said that you helped with most of the work in this machinery factory, and he also said that you are a hardworking comrade and a good student."

Every word that Mr. Qin said made Lou Xiao'e, who was sitting opposite him, happy.

She had never heard Yang Xiaotao say these words to her before, so hearing Old Qin say this, her favorable impression of him naturally increased.

I felt that Mr. Qin was more and more kind and willing to talk to him.

She didn't notice at all that there was a person behind her blocking her view, while the person behind her opened the drawing and looked at it carefully.

“I just do what I have to do.”

“It’s great to be able to do your part well.”

Old Qin said with a smile, glanced at the people beside him, and then stood up, "Okay, I won't disturb you from working, let's go out for a walk."

"Okay, Commander, would you like me to accompany you?"

"No need. I've been to this machinery factory several times and I'm familiar with it."

After Mr. Qin refused, he walked out of the office and looked at the person behind him.

"So, is the design an engine?"

The man nodded, "It's the engine of the plane, but..."

"However, the design of this engine is very crude. In our opinion, it is only third-rate."

"Third-rate level? Are you sure?"

Old Qin couldn't believe it. After all, he had known Yang Xiaotao for such a long time and was very familiar with his design ability.

"If this design is used for production, then yes, it will be third-rate."

The man's affirmative answer made Qin Lao feel much more sober. But thinking of Yang Xiaotao's past "achievements", he couldn't believe what he said.

Seeing Old Qin's expression, the man hesitated and said, "Commander, maybe you are using it to practice?"

"After all, the engine of this aircraft is different from a diesel engine, and it is even more different from a machine tool, a steel rolling mill, and so on."

"He has never come into contact with this type of engine before, which is normal."

"If we don't have the help of the alliance and want to start from scratch, we may not be able to do as well as he does."

"Yes, Chief."

At this time, another person also helped out and said, "This aircraft engine is not something that ordinary people can make. People who don't understand it can't make it well just by imagining it."

"Maybe the other party is learning. This is a process."

Old Qin nodded slowly, somewhat believing what the two said.

After all, there is no news that this machinery factory has any support from the alliance.

The reason why they used better materials was probably related to Yang Xiaotao's request.

Looking at the scene outside the window, Old Qin frowned slightly, "Is this really just a practice?"

But if that's the case, their logistics department really won't stand a chance.

Ugh!
If you want to get up, you have to rely on yourself.

After saying that, Mr. Qin didn't think any more and led the two away.

Night falls.

Yang Xiaotao asked Wang Hao to drive him back to the courtyard.

I didn’t get drunk from the wine I drank at noon, but the aftereffects still made me dizzy.

After seeing off Mr. Chen and the others, Yang Xiaotao returned to his office and fell asleep on the table.

It was not until the bell rang that I got up and prepared to go home.

"Boss Yang, you can really tell the material of metals at a glance."

Wang Hao was sitting in the driver's seat, watching Yang Xiaotao open his eyes and move his body. He couldn't resist his inner curiosity and asked.

Although no one outside knew about the meeting held by Yang Xiaotao and his colleagues, some people were bound to talk nonsense when they were drinking and eating. Moreover, Yang Xiaotao's ability was also a great topic of conversation, so word spread from one person to ten people, and from ten to a hundred, and soon the entire machinery factory knew about it.

Not only that, by now in the afternoon, the news had probably spread to factories in the surrounding streets.

Yang Xiaotao rubbed his brows and looked at the street passing by, his stomach rumbling.

This is what it’s like sitting at the same table with the boss. I drank a lot of wine, but my stomach was still not full. After rubbing it twice and feeling temporarily relieved, I answered Wang Hao’s question.

"As long as you are willing to put in the effort and pay more attention, you can do this too!"

Although Yang Xiaotao did not give a definite answer, his words already indicated the result.

Wang Hao got Yang Xiaotao's confirmation and thought about how to show off to his colleagues when he got back. After hearing what Yang Xiaotao said, he smiled self-awarely and said, "Forget it. I still know my own weight."

"I can't do this kind of technical work!"

Yang Xiaotao didn't say anything more after hearing this, as he knew his own business best.

Others may think that this is the accumulation of experience and a reflection of one's own ability, but in fact, I can accurately judge that experience only accounts for less than 30%.

It depends more on the system.

Thinking of this, Yang Xiaotao did not pay attention to his surroundings, but closed his eyes and called up the system panel.

Exchange column items:
“The credits are still not enough!”

Looking at the credits displayed by the system, the most earned during this period are the 2,000 credits obtained from Sun Tzu's Art of War. The rest are accumulated in daily life, which is just a drop in the bucket. If I want to use this to improve my main skills, I don’t know when I will be able to do that.

As for other sub-skills, you can consider them.

However, at this stage, fishing, cooking and carpentry are enough. Even if they are upgraded, the only thing they provide is more supplies every month. As for the remaining three skills, driving proficiency is not needed. The remaining mechanical proficiency upgrade to level 7 and steelmaking proficiency upgrade to level 4 both require 10,000 credits.

These two sub-skills can be upgraded.

But Yang Xiaotao is not lacking in skills in this area. To put it bluntly, he is proficient in mechanics, but the machine tools currently being manufactured are far from reaching his limits.

In other words, the time to reach level seven mechanical proficiency has not yet arrived.

Moreover, given the domestic situation, even level six mechanical proficiency is sufficient.

There is no practical point in upgrading now.

The same is true for steelmaking mastery.

Now we can’t even gather all the materials, what’s the point of raising the level?
I guess at most they would be rewarded with some formulas, and they might not necessarily be new formulas. If the reward was something like titanium alloy, wouldn’t that be a loss?

Thinking of this, Yang Xiaotao still placed his hopes on becoming a level six engineer.

This upgrade requires 40,000 credits. You get what you pay for and you can imagine that the benefits will be absolutely huge.

Even the sub-skills that are activated can help you make rapid progress.

But these credits are so hard to earn.

Yang Xiaotao lowered his head and touched his forehead, looking very helpless.

"Boss Yang, we're here."

As Wang Hao's voice sounded, the car slowly stopped outside the Siheyuan alley.

"Boss Yang, I'll pick you up tomorrow morning."

Wang Hao looked at Yang Xiaotao preparing to get off the car and then said.

Yang Xiaotao nodded, asked Wang Hao to drive slower, and then watched the jeep drive away.

PS: Dear big guys, at the end of the month, I will double the monthly tickets. If you have one, please give me one! Thank you!!!
