The Boss of the Yan Family in Siheyuan

Chapter 171 The Questioned Yan Xiecheng

In 1964, Yan Jiecheng was still running around his home and college every day as before.

Occasionally go to see Luo Gong and visit my father-in-law.

Until February [-]th, Yan Jiecheng was picked up by a military vehicle early in the morning.

When he arrived at the destination, Yan Jiecheng found that it was a military camp, surrounded by a lot of sentries, and the defense was very tight.

When more and more people arrived, Yan Xiecheng and the others were taken to a large auditorium.

After a while, everyone arrived, and everyone sat down according to the names in front of the table.

The head of the military region has also arrived.

As the commander-in-chief, he first announced the official start of the capital subway project today.

This project was defined as a high-level confidential combat readiness project above, so it was named Project 401.

The commander-in-chief read out the various cooperating units, as well as their responsibilities and persons in charge.

Because of his rich construction experience, Lao Xie was also promoted this time, and was appointed as the director of the Beijing Metro Engineering Bureau of the Railway Headquarters.

Yan Jiecheng was appointed as the head of the design department of the headquarters, equivalent to the chief designer of later generations.

Responsible for the overall design of the project.

Their department is composed of some experts from the Ministry of Geology, the Beijing Military Commission, major professional colleges and universities across the country, and the Railway Administration.

It covers [-] majors, large and small, such as communication, signal, survey, water supply and drainage, rolling stock, electric power, etc.

There are more than 1000 and [-] employees in the entire design department, which is extremely large.

The groundbreaking ceremony was held in the afternoon, and there was no scene of loud gongs and drums and flying flags during the whole process.

To Yan Jiecheng's surprise, Comrade Lao Chang personally presided over the groundbreaking ceremony, and he personally picked up the shovel to break the ground for the subway.

However, due to the confidentiality considerations of the combat readiness project, the media was not invited to report less.

In this way, the Beijing subway started mysteriously.

There were very few vehicles on the road at that time, and the construction did not have much impact on traffic.

Residents didn't even know a subway was being built.

Of course, it may also be because the current design plan has not yet been released.

Only Yan Jiecheng and the others started the construction. In order to conduct an experiment, they first asked to drill two shafts to observe the groundwater situation.

After the ceremony, someone came to give confidential training to Yan Xiecheng and his department.

Design drawings, data, etc. are the core information of the design department, and ordinary people are not allowed to touch it at all.

The headquarters stipulated that the construction technicians of each bidding section could only get their own drawings, and the general drawing could not be seen.

In addition, technicians need to strictly register the drawings. After the construction is completed, no matter how old the drawings are, they must be returned in full.

Because everyone knows that even if the general plan of the entire project cannot be seen, knowledgeable people can still calculate the protection level of the entire subway project based on individual data.

In addition, Yan Xiecheng didn't need to worry about the sorting and filing of materials.

The headquarters arranged a special public security office to be responsible.

The headquarters also stipulated that after the design department completed the design, the designers must submit their own design drawings and work diaries according to the number of pages.

The level of secrecy was so high that Yan Xiecheng was speechless.

The capital subway is the main channel project for combat readiness protection and evacuation of people.

Yan Xiecheng looked at the construction plan, and the top leader personally made important instructions of "careful design and careful construction. During the construction process, there must be many mistakes and failures, and attention should be paid to corrections at any time."

I was very moved in my heart. In the later generations, if I made a slight omission in my work, I would be scolded as an idiot by the leader.

If the leaders were so considerate, Yan Xiecheng wouldn't have had any brains in his previous life.

Under the design policy of the capital subway that focuses on combat readiness and takes traffic into consideration, Yan Xiecheng led the design department and started a rampage.

The first question before everyone is: should the Maoxiong subway line be buried below 60 meters deep, or should it be buried 20-25 meters shallow like most western countries?
Of course, the safety of deep burial is better, but the geological situation of the capital is a bit complicated.

Just like what he told Vice Minister Lu before, the conditions are not allowed!
During this period, the debate on deep burial and shallow burial also went through several twists and turns.

Although there is data support from the geological exploration work of the 911 Brigade of the Ministry of Geology in charge of subway construction, it is difficult to determine the deep burial.

However, under the general principle of focusing on combat preparation and taking into account transportation, it was finally determined to be buried deep.

Yan Jiecheng could only grit his teeth and go on.

After the plan was confirmed, everyone began to design the deep burial plan.

However, in mid-June, geological exploration has yielded new results.

According to the latest survey data, there is a thick and broken weathered layer in the underground rock formations of the capital, and the actual buried depth of the subway will exceed the original estimated depth.

The buried depth of the subway station will reach 160 meters, and the vicinity of the Red Temple will reach 200 meters, which is equivalent to the height of a 60-story building.

At this time, everyone found that the difficulty was far greater than expected.

Yan Jiecheng had no choice but to do an experiment first.

Let the Engineering Bureau drill two shafts, but when the shaft reaches 50 meters and 60 meters, it can't be done.

The groundwater is so large that it cannot be pumped cleanly, and the subway will be flooded.

Under such circumstances, Yan Jiecheng had no choice but to ask the leader for instructions. After a week of discussion, he finally chose shallow burial.

In order to strengthen the tunnel's prevention and control capabilities, Yan Jiecheng suggested adding an explosion-proof covering about 20 meter above the ground about 1 meters above the ground.

Like a big hat that protects the subway from bombing planes and more.

According to Yan Jiecheng's calculations, this can withstand the intensive bombing of aircraft for [-] hours.

The leather is very solid, and there is no problem at all for military use.

In the past six months, Yan Xiecheng has been going out early and returning late all day, like clockwork.

Fortunately, this project is confidential, but the headquarters did not restrict their lives, and he can still go home at night.

Just to improve efficiency, Yan Jiecheng did not refuse the car assigned to him by the headquarters.

Because the organization re-graded him in May, according to the practice of crossing the rank and grade line, according to the position, referring to the ability and qualifications, Yan Xiecheng was finally rated as administrative 13th.

Of course, he just got a higher rank, but his job rank didn't increase.

Up to now, he is still a department-level cadre, but he only enjoys the treatment of senior cadres.

This was a normal thing in the early days of the founding of the People's Republic of China.

Some people, don't look like they are officers in the ministries and commissions, but they are administrative 10th or 11th level.

Therefore, he is considered a senior cadre, and his salary is much better than before.

Today, he supplies 15 catties of meat, 4 catties of eggs, 2 catties of sugar, 2 cigarettes, 5 catties of soybeans, 5 catties of cooking oil, 10 catties of chicken and 20 catties of fish every month.

In addition, during the three festivals of May Day, National Day, and New Year's Day, 3 catties of meat, 2 catties of eggs, and 1 catty of sugar will be subsidized, and the subsidy will be doubled during the Spring Festival.

In addition to these, bread and biscuits still have to be purchased by ticket and charged at par.

Cakes and fruit candies are all at high prices.

Of course, there is no limit to fruits, vegetables, seasonings, etc., and they are supplied according to the supply of goods.

Anyway, compared to before, Yan Jiecheng feels that he is now a big landlord.

When Chang Kexin knew this, she was also very happy.

Although he is old, he enjoys the treatment of secretary, chef, nanny, waiter, driver and special car.

Driving out that black Jim is a symbol of status.

These things are not too unusual for her, but after all, her husband earned them, and she is very happy in her heart.

However, this car was a temporary allocation, so Yan Jiecheng didn't bother him, and directly rejected the arranged driver.

This is a Jeep made in Eastern Europe. It has a big butt and looks very ugly.

He asked the driver to introduce it to him, practiced a few casually, and then he was ready to go on the road.

This broken car doesn't even have an air conditioner, and it's hot to death if it's turned on in summer.

The window glass is still the kind that moves back and forth, and if you accidentally smoke a cigarette, you will bounce ash into the car.

It was past ten o'clock that night when Yan Jiecheng drove home from the headquarters.

As soon as I got to the door of the house, I heard the dog in the yard and started barking.

Yan Jiecheng opened the door, and a black shadow rushed forward.

Yan Jiecheng saw his dead dog pounced on him, stroked the dog's head, and said, "Little Hei, go play by yourself."

After Yan Jiecheng finished speaking, the dog walked away.

Yan Jiecheng thought: This dog is indeed spiritual, and Li Chu in the alley next door really didn't lie to me.

He asked for this dog from Li Chu, the director of the Chinese Medicine Department of the General Hospital who used to treat him.

It was only in March that Yan Jiecheng knew that the guy lived in a small courtyard in the alley next to him.

One evening, Yan Jiecheng met him walking his dog and heard that his dog had a litter, so he had the audacity to ask for one.

It has been raised for several months now, and this dog is really smart as he said.

When Yan Jiecheng approached the inner courtyard, he saw that the light in the study room was still on.

Yan Jiecheng bolted the door from the inside, and then headed towards the study.

Chang Kexin in the study knew that her husband had returned when she heard the dog barking.

At this time, the door of the study was opened and walked out.

Said: "It's so late today, when will you end this?"

Hearing Chang Kexin's complaint, Yan Jiecheng smiled and comforted him, "It's almost here."

Although Chang Kexin didn't know what Yan Jiecheng was busy with during this time, she knew what a major project it was after thinking about it.

Otherwise, Yan Jiecheng wouldn't have said nothing at home.

Knowing the discipline of secrecy, she didn't inquire too much.

It's just that like most wives, the husband always complains when he comes home late every day.

When the two came to the living room, Yan Jiecheng lay on the sofa a little tired.

Chang Kexin poured him a glass of water and snuggled up to the side.

"Is little sister asleep?" Yan Jiecheng asked.

Chang Kexin said: "This girl went to bed very early in the past few days, and she has slept for more than two hours now."

After finishing speaking, Chang Kexin stroked Yan Jiecheng's face and said, "I'll show you something."

As he spoke, he took out a folded piece of paper from his trouser pocket and handed it to Yan Jiecheng.

Yan Xiecheng spread out the paper, and saw it was a checklist.

He said casually, "Who is pregnant? It's been five weeks."

After saying this, Yan Jiecheng was suddenly shocked, and immediately stood up and asked, "Kexin, are you pregnant?"

Only then did Chang Kexin raise her head, looked at Yan Jiecheng arrogantly, and nodded.

When Yan Jiecheng was confirmed, he hugged Chang Kexin happily, smiling like a child weighing two hundred catties.

In Chang Kexin's reminder to be careful about children, Yan Jiecheng carefully put down Chang Kexin.

Then he walked up and down the living room, muttering, "What's the boy's name?
Zihan, Zihan, Zihan, Zihan, Zihan..."

The couple thought about the name all night, but they still haven't decided on it.

The next day, both need to go to work.Yan Jiecheng came to think about sending his daughter-in-law to work, but Chang Kexin refused.

I had to pack fruit, sugar, and other snacks in her bag.

Yan Jiecheng kept telling his daughter-in-law not to forget to eat.

He said it several times, and he stopped talking only after being disgusted by Chang Kexin.

Yan Jiecheng also remembered that in this era, women really held up half the sky.

Let alone taking a rest during pregnancy, confinement is only seven days.

So Yan Jiecheng could only watch his daughter-in-law go to work on her bicycle with her long legs.

Seeing that it was still early for work, Yan Jiecheng decided to drop by the courtyard and tell the two old people at home.

As for my father-in-law, I can just make a phone call after work.

When we arrived at the courtyard, it was time for people to go to work, and everyone was very curious to see this car parked at the gate of the courtyard.

Seeing Yan Xiecheng get off the car aroused everyone's gossip mentality.

Everyone came over one after another to say hello and make friends with Yan Jiecheng.

Yan Jiecheng listened to the constant compliments coming from his ears, although he was a little annoyed, he had no choice but to respond with a smile on his face.

After all, Chinese people are used to this.

If he dared to show a trace of impatience.

In the afternoon, what he said about Yan Xiecheng being defiant will spread throughout several alleys.

After dealing with the crowd, Yan Jiecheng hurried home.

Yan Bugui is not ready to go to work yet. After all, he is a person with a bicycle, so he will go faster on the road, so he will go out later than others.

Seeing that Yan Jiecheng came early in the morning, the couple thought that something had happened.

Quickly asked: "Boss, why did you come here so early in the morning, what happened?"

Yan Jiecheng smiled and said, "Mom, it's okay, I'm here to tell you that Kexin is pregnant."

After hearing this, the third mother hurriedly said, "Really?"

Yan Jiecheng hastened to reassure, and the third mother believed it.

Standing there, clasped his hands together, and said: "Thank you ancestors and ancestors for allowing my eldest daughter-in-law to become pregnant."

Seeing his mother like this, Yan Jiecheng thought, "It's your son who worked so hard every night to get it. What does it have to do with the ancestors?"
After Yan Jiecheng finished his business, he didn't linger any longer. After bidding farewell to the two elders, he went to work.

Today when Yan Jiecheng went to work, the first thing he did was to call his father-in-law and tell him about Chang Kexin's pregnancy.

After that, they began to review the drawings sent by the Tunnel Design Office of the Design Department.

Now the tunnel design drawings of the first phase of the project have all come out.

As long as Yan Xiecheng reviewed and signed, the construction can be carried out according to the drawings.

Looking at these blueprints, Yan Jiecheng was very satisfied.

The drawing is very detailed, taking into account all aspects of construction.

Moreover, this design is also very fast.This made Yan Jiecheng the happiest.

However, when it was almost noon, Yan Jiecheng discovered a big problem.

Yan Jiecheng looked at the drawings, and suddenly a burst of cold sweat oozed from his back.

Because he discovered a big flaw in the tunnel design.

He found that all the design drawings did not take into account the penetration error of the tunnel.

This means that if the construction is carried out according to the drawings, the two or even several construction sections started separately may be staggered when they are finally connected, and the entire tunnel will not be able to be connected in a straight line.

In later designs, this penetration error should have been included in the calculation.

However, due to lack of experience, the design of the tunnel design office has been undercalculated by nearly 20 centimeters.

Don't underestimate this mere 20 centimeters. If it is not counted, the width and height of the tunnel will be insufficient. In the future, the locomotive may bump into walls or equipment, and the track will not be paved.

That is to say, the limit is small in what they say professionally.

Yan Jiecheng hurriedly called Professor Jin, the person in charge of the tunnel design department, and explained the matter to him.

Professor Jin was also taken aback.

But when the news reached them, many people immediately raised doubts and did not believe Yan Jiecheng's judgment.

At first, everyone was a little bit unconvinced by Yan Jiecheng as the chief designer, but now seeing him denying the results of everyone's hard work over the past few months, how could they bear it.

Started to say some ugly words.

No hair on the mouth, and inability to do things well are considered light.

Yan Jiecheng also heard these words, and he didn't pay much attention to them.

After all, this life is alive, and there are rivers and lakes everywhere.

He would just be thinking of a way to visually confirm this problem.
