Scholars in the courtyard.

Chapter 2158 Beautiful Fireworks

As night fell, Yang Xiaotao was cooking fish in the kitchen.

In the room, Old Qian and Old Wang were cracking melon seeds, while Father Ran was helping to add water.

During the Duanwu Festival, the others were playing around and talking to grandpa from time to time, especially when talking about the kite. The four children were chattering so much that the three of them had no time to talk, but they did laugh a lot more.

After the engine test was successful, the three men could no longer hold on and went straight back to the office and fell asleep.

When the three of them got up again, it was getting dark, and they were all hungry.

Mr. Wang wanted to treat everyone to a meal, but Mr. Qian didn't know how much money he had in his pocket, so he said he would treat himself.

Since both of his superiors had spoken, Mr. Ran naturally couldn't just stand by and watch, so he suggested finding a place himself.

The two nodded, and then the three of them took a car out for a walk.

But halfway through the journey, Mr. Qian realized that he seemed to have only brought money with him.

So, at the suggestion of Ran's father and with the strong approval of Mr. Wang, the three of them took a car to the courtyard.

As soon as he entered the door, he saw Yang Xiaotao killing fish, and Mr. Wang was immediately happy.

The fish cooked by Yang Xiaotao is recognized as delicious.

Yang Xiaotao naturally welcomed the arrival of the three people.

Of course, it would be better if the three of them did not come empty-handed.

As for what Mr. Wang said about good news being the best gift, Yang Xiaotao thought it was enough to just listen to it.

Ran Qiuye was very happy about the arrival of Ran's father.

The father and daughter haven't seen each other since the Chinese New Year. Naturally, they are very welcoming to see Father Ran coming back this time, along with two leaders.

"The pot is boiling, it's time to eat."

Yang Xiaotao took the food out of the pot and placed it on the table one by one.

“No outsiders, let the children be together, together.”

When Mr. Qian saw Ran Qiuye taking the child out, he quickly greeted them.

Mr. Wang came directly to the door and pulled the children back, "The three of us are here to eat for free."

"Besides, Lao Ran is here, we are a family."

"Sit down."

Father Ran also nodded, and Yang Xiaotao sat aside preparing chopsticks.

"Commander, this is Maotai without any water."

Yang Xiaotao joked again, but Mr. Wang rolled his eyes and said, "We still have a child, can't you give me some face?"

"No."

"You boy."

Old Wang was speechless, then looked at Duanwu beside him and said, "Zhengyi, when you grow up, will you follow your grandfather to make rockets?"

Duanwu was eating a steamed bun when he suddenly heard Mr. Wang's voice. He widened his eyes and asked, "What is a rocket?"

"Rocket, that's the rocket, that's it"

Mr. Wang didn't know how to explain to a child who hadn't even entered the first grade yet, so he looked at Yang Xiaotao and said, "As a father, explain it to me."

Yang Xiaotao was speechless. How could this be possible? It was obviously you who brought up the topic.

"Ahem, this rocket is a big rocket that can fly directly into the sky, very high up."

Duanwu's eyes widened immediately after hearing this, "Great, will it be very loud when it explodes?"

"Stupid brother, the flying monkey must be very loud."

Rongrong pouted, her little eyes full of pride, "Dad, will there be flowers when they explode? Won't they be beautiful?"

"Yes, it's just like the fireworks during Chinese New Year. It's so beautiful."

Miaomiao also said, "It would definitely look great if we put several of them together!"

As the kids were talking, Yang Xiaotao tried hard to hold back his laughter, but Old Qian started laughing, and Old Wang was completely speechless.

So does the rocket fly up just to hear the sound?

What about the fireworks? If they explode, their Seventh Ministry of Machine Building will also explode.

Old Wang was unable to defend himself. He just glanced at Yang Xiaotao. How did this guy educate his child? What on earth is this kid thinking?
"Uncle Qian, I respect you."

Yang Xiaotao picked up the wine glass, and Qian Lao also picked it up. They both took a sip.

“When will this missile be ready?”

While drinking and eating, Yang Xiaotao asked.

Old Wang lowered his head to eat. Father Ran glanced at the two of them and then said, "After the successful test today, we have already started designing and producing it."

"The prototype can be produced within three or two days, and the experiment will also be quick."

"About three or four days. That's pretty fast."

After Yang Xiaotao finished speaking, he asked, "What do you need our machinery factory to do?"

Mr. Wang picked out the fish bones, then handed the meat from the fish belly to Miaomiao beside him, "The more the better, to make the engine."

Yang Xiaotao looked over, and Mr. Wang said, "Yesterday, the other party went to Shanghai again, left a bunch of stuff behind and ran away!"

"We didn't lose any personnel, but morale was hit hard! The people were also in a state of panic, alas!"

"Also, the missiles fired are all money!"

After Wang Lao finished speaking, Ran's father showed anger on his face, "Sooner or later, these guys will never come back."

Yang Xiaotao frowned, looked at Mr. Qian, and finally looked at Mr. Wang, "You come here every time? Something is wrong!"

Hearing this, Mr. Wang looked at Yang Xiaotao in surprise. He didn't expect that Yang Xiaotao would be so sensitive.

"Something's wrong!"

"I think those guys are probably planning a big move."

"This time and twice, it's just to find out the trick. Once I figure it out, hehe."

"Given their character, they will definitely go all out and try to achieve their goal in one fell swoop."

"That's right, that's Shanghai."

After Wang Lao finished speaking, Qian Lao was stunned and said quickly, "Then we must deploy it as soon as possible and remind them!"

Old Wang smiled and shook his head. "If I can figure it out, do you think those guys in Jinling who are always thinking about war can't figure it out?"

"I guess our missiles are just a backup plan. If they can't catch up, they must have other countermeasures."

"Don't worry, all we have to do is make it as quickly as possible, and then make dumplings for them!"

As Wang Lao spoke, a gleam of light flashed in his eyes. Although he had left the battle sequence after arriving at the Seventh Machine Department, his military training had not been relaxed, and he was fully aware of the enemy's methods.

"So, you plan to save enough and set a trap for them?"

Yang Xiaotao understood the meaning of the words and suddenly realized what Mr. Wang meant, and his face was filled with excitement.

As a man, who doesn’t like to wield swords and sticks?

Except there's no stick!

Mr. Wang laughed and said, "Yes."

"Don't worry about it at other times. When they think they are safe, we will use our trump card to make sure they have no chance of returning."

"You guys should work hard these days and try to make a hundred engines. Then we can make a big deal!"

Yang Xiaotao happily picked up his glass and clinked it with Mr. Wang's. "Okay, just for this, our machinery factory will go all out!"

"Then we'll have more aircraft wreckage to study."

"Maybe I can piece it together into a complete one."

Hearing Yang Xiaotao say this, Mr. Wang nodded seriously, "Maybe there will be a surprise."

"Lend your blessings."

As they talked, both of them couldn't stop laughing.

Seeing that the two were bickering just now, and now they are getting along very well, Qian Lao said to Ran's father, "These two people, one moment they are bickering with each other, and the next moment they are getting along very well, what kind of friendship is this?"

Father Ran shook his head helplessly. It was hard to say about his own eldest son, and his own son-in-law was not wrong either. All he could say was that they were birds of a feather!

Mr. Wang put down his wine glass and said frankly, "You don't understand this, this is called friendship regardless of age."

Yang Xiaotao didn't refute after hearing this, but just held the wine glass and drank with him.

Ran Qiuye at the table laughed after hearing this, and several children stared at Old Wang with wide eyes, as if they wanted to get a few Sky-piercing Monkeys from him.

Everyone ate and chatted and left very late.

Yang Xiaotao left the drunk Ran's father behind, and Mr. Wang and Mr. Qian got into the car with the help of the guards.

"Xiao Tao, wait a few days, when the missiles are ready, I'll show you what fireworks are!"

“Big fireworks!”

Mr. Wang reeked of alcohol and spoke with a lisp.

Yang Xiaotao nodded immediately, "Okay, I will definitely go when the time comes!"

three days later.

An experimental field outside the city of Sijiu.

Yang Xiaotao was driving the car, and Yang Youning was sitting in the passenger seat with a happy look on his face.

Knowing that today was an important day, Yang Youning finally persuaded Yang Xiaotao to come along after paying a "huge price".

As for the consequences, the number of documents on my desk will double in the next six months.

However, when he saw the security standards on site, he felt that his trip was not in vain.

The two passed through layers of inspection and finally arrived at their destination.

There were a few people standing not far away, looking at the test area with binoculars.

Yang Xiaotao came over.

"dad!"

Father Ran heard the noise and turned around to see Yang Xiaotao and smiled, "You came early!"

"Then you have to come and see it sooner!"

As he was talking, several people around him looked over, including Han Sanfeng, the person in charge of computers, and Director Wang, who was in charge of self-destruction.

"Uncle Han, Uncle Wang!"

Yang Xiaotao stepped forward to greet everyone, and Comrade Lao Yang also stepped forward to make himself known.

Several of them were familiar with Yang Xiaotao, and were also familiar with Yang Youning. Moreover, strictly speaking, their Seventh Ministry of Machine Building and the Machinery Factory also had a cooperative relationship this time.

Besides, I had been to the machinery factory before and witnessed Yang Xiaotao's skills.

They were also present at the inspection of the turbojet ramjet two days ago and clearly understood the advantages of that engine.

To be frank, there are not many products abroad that can compare with it.

It is absolutely unique in China.

Even before Yang Xiaotao came up with the design, their entire Seventh Ministry of Machine Building had invested in the research and development and design.

So they all know the difficulties involved.

But Yang Xiaotao got the job done by himself.

This is no longer admiration, but more of adoration.

There is no order of learning, the master is the teacher.

Yang Xiaotao is the teacher with the most say in the field of engines.

A few people were greeting each other. The leaders had not arrived yet, but the next work was almost ready, so they started chatting more and more.

"The leader is here!"

After a while, several cars drove in from outside, followed by several jeeps, followed by armored vehicles.

Ever since the machinery factory produced the Kuiniu II armored vehicles, they have been seen in important security work in the city of Sijiu.

"Let's go and greet them!"

As Father Ran was talking, he walked down the stairs. Old Wang and Old Qian had already been waiting here with their men.

A group of people got off the cars one after another. The leader was an old man with a crew cut. He was not tall, with a square face, thick eyebrows, and a resolute look on his face.

He was wearing an old cloth military uniform and walked with the gait of a dragon or a tiger. He looked intimidating without even getting angry, like a decisive and ruthless general.

At first glance, Yang Xiaotao felt a murderous aura permeating in the air.

My heart was shocked!
It's not like he hasn't seen someone of this status before.

But compared to the military god in Jinling, this man has a more murderous aura.

He is indeed a man who dares to draw his sword and mount his horse!

Behind the square-faced man, Mr. Chen, Mr. Huang, Mr. Qin, Mr. Zhang and others followed one after another, in addition there were some people in military uniforms.

At a glance, Yang Xiaotao saw that they were all the bosses of various machine departments.

This time, most of them have come!

Yang Youning beside him looked surprised and muttered something unclear. Yang Xiaotao guessed that it was most likely words of surprise.
