Scholars in the courtyard.

Chapter 2078 Appearance is Important

The next day, the machinery factory.

After a night of hard work, Yang Xiaotao finally armed the engine before dawn.

Zhang Guanyu next to him stared with red eyes, looking at the assembled engine with excitement. From time to time, he walked forward to touch it, and picked up the design drawing to look at it, with a look of disbelief but having to believe it.

As for Hao Pingchuan, he was sitting by the stove with his hands clasped together, snoring.

Yang Xiaotao looked at the assembled engine, then rubbed his eyes, took out the fault scanning glasses from his pocket, and began to check it.

He drew the design and assembled it himself.

The scanning glasses were easily recognized without any problems.

Come to think of it, the people in the machinery factory followed the design drawings, and he didn't leave a single screw behind after the installation.

"It's done. Have someone keep an eye on it. I'm going to take some sleep!"

Yang Xiaotao took off his glasses, looked at Zhang Guanyu who was still recording, and walked up to him and said.

Zhang Guanyu nodded, "Boss Yang, go and have a rest. I'll take a look!"

"We can't make mistakes in the installation order. We have worked so hard to come up with this method, so we have to remember it clearly."

Yang Xiaotao was very pleased to see Zhang Guanyu being so responsible.

It is really easy to get things done if you have a capable subordinate.

"Okay, when you're done, take a rest and eat something. Don't freeze!"

Zhang Guanyu nodded. Hao Pingchuan woke up, looked at the two of them, then stood up and stared at the engine, his eyes gradually becoming stunned.

Yang Xiaotao walked towards the cafeteria after leaving the warehouse.

I can't sleep well if I don't eat something.

As soon as Yang Xiaotao went out, Hao Pingchuan followed him out.

"Mr. Yang, Mr. Yang!"

Hao Pingchuan hurriedly followed, Yang Xiaotao slowed down, looked back, and continued walking towards the cafeteria.

"Old Hao, you've been here for more than a month, right?"

Hao Pingchuan raised two fingers and said, "Two months!"

Yang Xiaotao shrugged, "No news from Lao Zheng?"

"Hey, I'm wondering too. He just left me there without any news. Last time he said he was waiting for an opportunity."

"He said that there are some actions at the shipyard that need to be coordinated recently, and asked me to wait a little longer."

"If you wait any longer, I'll have to spend the New Year here!"

Speaking of this, Hao Pingchuan's face was full of complaints.

I always feel like I've been cheated by Zheng Chaoyang.

"It's nice to celebrate the New Year here. Snow in the north is rare in Shanghai!"

Yang Xiaotao smiled, and the two of them walked into the cafeteria.

Hao Pingchuan nodded, "That's right, it's just right to celebrate the New Year with Lao Luobo!"

Yang Xiaotao didn't say much after hearing this. This old man was no ordinary person, so Yu Zecheng specially introduced him to him.

He is an old revolutionary!

Even Yu Zecheng had to salute respectfully when he saw him.

"What do you want to eat?"

"Anything works!"

The two men came to the window, and Yang Xiaotao ordered a bowl of rice, two steamed buns made of 100 grams of flour, and a plate of pickles.

Hao Pingchuan is similar.

Although his food and lodging were reimbursed during his time at the machinery factory, his frugal habits still prevented him from consuming lavish amounts of meat and fish.

The two of them found a place to sit down. The workers who worked the night shift would go home only after they had their meal, which could be considered as reducing the burden on the family!

"Oh, by the way, I forgot what I was about to say because of this interruption!"

Hao Pingchuan took a bite of the steamed bun and then he remembered the purpose of his running out.

"Boss Yang, can you lend me your engine?"

Yang Xiaotao almost choked, "Lend it to you? What are you going to do? Oh my God!"

Hao Pingchuan laughed, "Based on my understanding of Zheng Chaoyang, he keeps saying how good he is and how important I am, but in reality, he will definitely keep the most dangerous things for himself!"

"So, I think I can't just follow his instructions. I have to take the initiative!"

bang bang
Yang Xiaotao tapped the plate with his chopsticks, "Let's get to the point, I'm so sleepy!"

Hao Pingchuan didn't care and quickly said, "I want to make a big one to lure those rats out!"

"So you want this engine?"

"Yes, take this and say it's a new type of engine made for the shipyard. They will definitely be fooled!"

Hao Pingchuan looked very proud and felt that this idea was absolutely realistic.

Yang Xiaotao rolled his eyes and lowered his head to eat.

The engine that I made with so much effort has become the bait in your mouth.

If it gets blown up, who can I cry to?

"How about you, lend it to me!"

"Not good!"

Yang Xiaotao refused directly, "This engine is the hard work of our machinery factory. If you use it as bait, what if it is damaged?"

"This thing is very valuable. A bullet could destroy it. Can you guarantee that it won't get damaged?"

Hao Pingchuan was stunned. He had never thought of this question.

He was so focused on finding someone that he forgot about this.

In an instant, he became three inches shorter and lay on the table chewing pickled cabbage.

"But, your idea is good!"

Yang Xiaotao finished eating the steamed bun and suddenly said, "That gas turbine you mentioned earlier, it's a good gimmick!"

Seeing that Hao Pingchuan still lowered his head, he said, "If you can wait, I can have someone make a gas turbine. This way it won't be a gimmick, but a real thing."

"This thing is more tempting to the enemy than this engine."

"Really?"

Hao Pingchuan suddenly raised his head, his face full of hope.

Yang Xiaotao felt that this guy must have been acting just now.

Or it's just true nature.

However, he believed the former more, because how could a guy in his forties not be a little cunning?

"of course it's true!"

"But, but I heard that this gas turbine thing is very difficult!"

Hao Pingchuan was still a little uncertain.

Who would want to use a fake one if they can use the real one?

After all, fake things always have flaws. If they are discovered by the enemy, not only will you not be able to lure them out, you may even be targeted by them.

If Yang Xiaotao can really make it happen, then there will be no burden in this regard.

Because this is a conspiracy.

If you don't come to destroy us, then just watch us succeed.

"This thing is simpler than an airplane engine, and the people in the workshop are familiar with it. Let them do it, and they will be able to make it in a month."

Yang Xiaotao said as he stood up and walked towards the office. I really need some sleep!

The Third Ministry of Machine Building.

Testing of the engine continues.

Director Wu and his colleagues are also very busy.

At the very least, it now seems that the quality of this engine is much better than that of the Logistics Department.

But at noon, Director Wu received another message.

That is, the Red Star Machinery Factory in the city also made an engine.

And it will be sent for testing soon.

Of course, he must be familiar with the aircraft engines in the machinery factory.

What's more, the shadow of the Logistics Department is also involved here.

No matter what they think or how they see it, they have to respond.

"Director Zheng, how much do you know about the engines in the machinery factory?"

Zheng Shuangyan was looking at the inspection report. All the test data met the design requirements, which made him feel relieved.

Hearing Wu Zhe's words at this time, he immediately put down the test data in his hand and said solemnly.

"Director Wu, I don't know much about the engines in the machinery factory."

"But I know their engines are pretty good!"

“Especially in terms of design, I personally feel that there are many novelties and things we can learn from them.”

Zheng Shuangyan did not belittle the machinery factory because of its peers. On the contrary, he knew that his own Bluebird could be what it is today because the machinery factory provided ideas and alloy materials, and they also had a share of the credit.

Hearing Director Zheng say this, Director Wu became even more curious.

Curious about the engine.

"but!"

At this time, Director Zheng spoke again, "However, this engine is very different from our design, so there is no matching aircraft."

"If you want to use it, you have to design a suitable aircraft..."

Zheng Shuangyan did not continue speaking, but Wu Zhe understood what she said but could only remain silent.

Because this is not something he can decide.

The Shengjing Aircraft Factory spent ten years researching and replicating this aircraft, and consumed countless materials during that time.

It can be said that every screw consumes national property.

The last plane crash directly destroyed their hard work.

The loss was huge, not only in terms of materials, but also in terms of accumulated data.

If you can't find the problem, you have to conduct a comprehensive investigation.

This is another expense.

They can't afford to fail again.

Likewise, it cannot afford to research excess aircraft.

Ugh!
Sighing inwardly, Wu Zhe changed the subject and continued with the design of the engine in front of him.

……

At noon, Yang Xiaotao was shaken by Lou Xiaoe.

Looking up at her surroundings, Lou Xiao'e had a smile on her face but was trying hard to hold it back.

Then I saw two people standing in the office.

If it’s not Mr. Qin and Mr. Xia, then who else could it be?
Yang Xiaotao quickly got up, rubbed his eyes and rubbed his face, "Commander!"

The two of them walked to the side and sat down. Old Xia spoke first, "Did you work overtime last night?"

Yang Xiaotao yawned and stretched, feeling more energetic, so he nodded, "Well, after working all night, I finally made it."

Then he looked at Mr. Qin and said, "Commander, didn't you go and take a look?"

When Mr. Qin came in, his face was full of smiles. "I've taken a look. It looks better than the day before yesterday!"

"I just got back from there!"

Old Qin smiled at Yang Xiaotao and said, "This news has been reported. Old Chen also knows about it and plans to send it for inspection!"

"If I wasn't in a hurry, I wouldn't have asked you to get up!"

Yang Xiaotao came over and sat down. "Inspection? Today?"

"Isn't the Third Machine Department inspecting it?"

Old Xia nodded, "The Third Ministry of Machine Building started yesterday, but this kind of inspection is only a preliminary inspection!"

Old Qin took over the topic, "The place is not small, and it won't take much time to inspect it."

"The last time we sent it, it took just over a week to complete. In addition, some inspection items require special methods. If we inspect them together, it can save costs."

Mr. Qin had an expression that said, "I've been through this before and I know it all."

However, Yang Xiaotao felt that sending it for inspection at this time would seem like showing off.

This old man must be up to something bad.

Without waiting for Yang Xiaotao to express his opinion, Old Xia on the side spoke again, "This is what Old Huang and I meant."

"Test it as soon as possible!"

Mr. Xia didn't say anything more. Yang Xiaotao knew that this matter was a done deal!

So he said, "Then I'll go get ready!"

Then the two left the office. Mr. Qin went to the workshop to organize people to load the truck, while Yang Xiaotao prepared the drawings.

After working for more than half an hour, Yang Xiaotao got into the car with the buns that Lou Xiaoe had found from the cafeteria.

There was an engine installed on the Optimus Prime behind him, and Liang Zuoxin was leading the fast squadron to escort along the way. The whole convoy was so grand that many people who were paying attention to this side became alert.

Two hours later, the car arrived at the outskirts of the experimental area.

Mr. Qin got out of the car and saluted the first driver, and then the convoy entered the experimental factory area.

Rumble

The leading car stopped and Yang Xiaotao got out. He saw Mr. Zhang walking towards him with a smile on his face, accompanied by Zheng Shuangyan, Wu Zhe and others.

Yang Xiaotao followed behind Old Qin and Old Xia and came up to them.

"Old Zhang, you're here pretty early!"

"Hello, Chief..."

"Uncle Zheng..."

After the few people met, there was another round of greetings.

Yang Xiaotao also met Wu Zhe, and the two of them exchanged a few brief words.

However, after Optimus Prime slowly drove into the experimental area, Zhang Lao and his companions immediately turned their eyes over.

When the car stopped and everyone worked hard to lift the engine down, the person who was originally in charge of the inspection gasped.

Wu Zhe even looked back and forth between the two engines.

Not to mention them, even Director Zhang Laozheng and other engineers and workers from the Third Ministry of Machine Building were shocked when they saw the engines of the machinery factory for the first time.

They looked at the engines of both sides one by one, and then showed a look of helplessness.

Let’s not talk about the performance for now, just the appearance and the presentation show the difference.

One is short and thick, the other is long and thin.

One is a rough man, the other is a handsome young man.

If they were to stand together on a blind date, the mother-in-law, unless she is blind, would know which one to choose!
