Courtyard light

Chapter 231 The two pillars are transferred (second update)

"Wasn't this already given last year? It was given as soon as the well-drilling equipment was manufactured!" Liu Hai asked with some confusion when he heard this?
"Have you given it? I guess not?"

"This time the Ministry of Agriculture is going to give you a reward, as well as the sweet potatoes and potatoes you discovered." Sun Aiguo said.

"I am also a farmer, what kind of reward do I want? As long as everyone can have enough to eat, I will be fine. When I was a child, I fled here and was taken in by people in the village. According to them, my parents seemed to have died of starvation." Liu Hai shook his head. He said that he was determined not to ask for this reward.

When Sun Aiguo heard this, he said: "There is still a drought in the north this year, but there are wells to water the wheat twice, and then water the corn several times. It seems that we can have some harvest now."

"Without those wells, many places might not have harvested this year, especially potatoes and sweet potatoes. As long as you water these two crops twice, you can get some harvest!"

Hearing Sun Aiguo's words, Liu Hai nodded. Drilling wells is mainly in dry land in the north. Drilling wells in rice fields is not practical. Rice fields still need to build reservoirs and other water conservancy facilities.

Drought usually lasts for tens of days or a month. As long as you water twice more during this period, you can save the seedlings.

It is impossible to say that there will be a bumper harvest, but there will be some harvest, and it will not be a complete harvest.

"I can't ask for this, and I don't have any credit. I just discovered it. The cultivation was all done by experts from the Ministry of Agriculture. How can I have the nerve to take credit for it?" Liu Hai said again.

"Okay, let's do it this way!" Sun Aiguo nodded when he heard this.

Besides, the Ministry of Agriculture can breathe a sigh of relief this year, as the drought has been alleviated. Some time ago, the Ministry of Agriculture was in dire straits, with drought everywhere, especially in the north.

Fortunately, a lot of wells were drilled last year. Although it was a bit harder, at least the seedlings were saved, and at least there is still a few percent harvest this year.In addition, machines also play a big role, especially diesel engines for pumping water. One diesel engine can be used by dozens of people to work hard.

Thanks to the efforts of people at all levels, this wave of drought has basically survived. It is worse in some areas, but much better in most other places.

The Ministry of Agriculture is now preparing to reward personnel at all levels. As the discoverer of potatoes and sweet potatoes, Liu Hai cannot be bypassed. In addition, the well-drilling equipment manufactured and designed last year also deserves a lot of credit.

In fact, the most serious thing in the dry season is when the grain is growing. At that time, the grain in the ground is not full. Once the sun is strong, it will dry out in a few days. On the contrary, if the grain covers the entire ground, it will be better. .

And now that the grain is growing, as long as it is not too serious and there is water from wells for irrigation, there will be some harvest.

Especially for potatoes and the like, although there is some impact this year, it is certainly not as big as others. After all, corn has been basically saved.

After Sun Aiguo reported Liu Hai's refusal to be rewarded, the leader of the First Machinery Department did not expect Liu Hai to say such a thing. He even thought that Liu Hai was a simple rural youth, so he wrote two more words for Liu Hai.

Of course, the Human Relations Department of the Ministry of Agriculture will definitely take over. There will be no such thing as human relations between ministries.

Liu Hai published a commercial version of the off-road vehicle drawings, and several of Li Dali's subordinates began to manufacture them. Now the equipment in the maintenance department can be said to be the same as that in the factory. The maintenance department in the factory can also process it. How about Li Dali? Human skills can be regarded as being developed. After all, there are machines over there. No matter how much you mess with your skills, it won't work if you don't want to improve them.

What's more, Liu Hai is here to give guidance from time to time.

Liu Hai occasionally comes to see how many people are processing parts, thinking about upgrading these equipment?

"Forget it, wait a few more years, it's enough now!" But Liu Hai thought of many other factories that didn't even have the equipment that Big Brother had eliminated.

Equipment upgrades sometimes don't mean you can just upgrade if you want. You have to wait until the overall working conditions across the country reach a certain level before you can upgrade. Even if Liu Hai continues to upgrade, what's the point of developing single-chip microcomputers and first-generation CNC machine tools?

Workers in other factories simply cannot accept this rapid upgrade. They will have to wait until the upgraded equipment is used on a large scale across the country and enough talents are cultivated before the next upgrade can be carried out.The number of workers is not enough now, so it is futile to talk about upgrading.

Of course, there is also an advantage now, that is, there may not be so many young people who are waiting to go to the countryside in a few years. After all, there is a huge shortage of people in various places now!
After Big Brother's experts withdrew, many skilled domestic workers who remained were unable to understand the situation.

Technology is divided into two levels, the first is usability, and the second is mastery of technology. Once you master the opponent's technology, you can upgrade, and at the usability level, you can only use it.

Liu Hai's work schedule has become normal recently. He comes to the factory to work in the morning and returns to the courtyard after get off work in the afternoon!
After the first master was promoted, he talked more in the courtyard. You could hear loud voices at any time. Even the second pillar spoke louder. I don’t know what happened to him. Most likely, there won’t be any big deal. Got it!
On Sunday, Liu Hai was at home and began to think about the shield machine. To be precise, it was called a tunnel boring machine at this time. Nowadays, these machines are all manual and have many shortcomings, but the technology is improved step by step.

Seeing that the tunnel will be dug soon, this thing is just in time to be taken out.

The place where Liu Hai lives is between the first courtyard and the second courtyard. The two small houses on the left were converted into a suite during the renovation.

"Hey, the second aunt bought so many pigs to go into the water?" the first aunt asked in the backyard.

"Xiaohai bought it. He said he wanted to improve the food." The second aunt looked at the two pairs of pigs in the basin. Except for the pig liver and small intestines, everything else was there.

The eldest mother smiled and said: "This child is really good."

"It's not that bad." The second aunt smiled and washed it repeatedly with Qin Huairu with hot water.

Liu Hai went to the Dahongmen Meat Factory to get this early in the morning. The second aunt usually washed and brushed it for him. He also went to the second aunt's house to eat several meals without giving food stamps or anything. The second uncle didn't like to take advantage of it. Although I am a workshop director, I have several children. It is free to study for several children, but I have to pay for food and clothing by myself.

The second aunt also pours boiling water and other things into the bangs at any time. It happened to be Sunday, so I went to buy it when I had time and asked the second aunt to do it.

The main reason is that washing is troublesome. At this time, I can't bear to use flour for washing, so I use hot water to wash. Of course, in the future, detergents and washing powder will be used... ahem.

After a while, my bangs could smell the smell of stewed pig waste. This needs to be soaked in water and washed afterwards.

Everyone in the yard knew that Liu Hai was close to the second uncle's family, and no one said anything about the water bill. After all, Liu Hai paid part of it alone, and Liu Hai was often not in the yard.

At this time, the water meters have not been separated. In the future, many faucets will be installed in one place, one for each faucet and one water meter. At that time, each will pay the fee.

Liu Hai was thinking in his mind. Today's tunnel boring machines are not complicated and technically difficult. Only the highly automated technology of later generations will be more technical.

Today's tunnel boring machines are not very good at digging rocks, but they are quite good at digging soil.

At noon, Liu Hai went to the second uncle's house for dinner, and saw Er Zhuzi having dinner at the first uncle's house. He said that after Er Zhuzi was beaten and discharged from the hospital, the first mother did her best, and Er Zhuzi didn't talk much.

"Actually, this is pretty good." Liu Hai thinks it's not bad. Although the second pillar is like this or that, the first uncle is not a good person. Anyway, they all have their own ideas. It just so happens that the second pillar is manipulated by the first uncle at will, and the salary of both of them is not low.

When we arrived at the second uncle's house, the second uncle, Liu Hai, and Xu Damao sat together. The second uncle drank with Xu Damao, but Liu Hai refused to drink. The three of them were all cadres, but Xu Damao was an officer and had the lowest rank.

On the other side, Qin Huairu, the second aunt, and the second aunt's children. Qin Huairu has a good relationship with the second uncle's family and is an apprentice himself, so he is very pitiful.

When I usually come home from school, I have not only the second aunt as my grandma, but also three uncles. The eldest and the second uncle of the second uncle’s family basically talk to each other, but the third one is really good at it. The second aunt used to give her three children at home. The prepared thin bamboo strips are basically used on the rod body.

The second aunt's family is still successful in educating the children, but the methods are a little bit different. Fortunately, the second uncle no longer beats people...

"Yima bought malted milk for Er Zhuzi." Xu Damao said mysteriously.

When Liu Hai heard this, he was a little surprised. Malted milk is a luxury product in this era. The last time Liu Hai went to see it, a can costs twenty or thirty. This stuff is in short supply.

"What's the point? Erzhuzi will go into the workshop later and become Lao Yi's apprentice." The second uncle took a bite of radish, and today the pig stewed the radish in water.

When Xu Damao heard this, he asked: "The other disciples of the First Master have no objections, but a scum like Er Zhuzhu?"

"You don't know who Lao Yi is, so who is his apprentice?" The second uncle shook his head.

Xu Damao sighed and said: "The second pillar has finally started to work. If the new factory director hadn't come, I would have gone back to cleaning toilets."

The second uncle shook his head: "I'm not optimistic about it anyway. You have to be bold and careful when entering the workshop. Er Zhuzhu has a carefree personality, which is hard to say."

Liu Hai nodded: "The most taboo thing in the workshop is to look careless and indifferent. Some people don't even know what happened to them."

Xu Damao chuckled: "After Erzhuzi passed by this time, he doesn't talk much recently. It seems that he has learned his lesson."

"That's good. It'll be a good time for the elder to take care of him in his old age." "That's true, but I think it's hard to say." Xu Damao shook his head and was not optimistic.

Liu Hai naturally knew that Xu Damao had been bullied by Er Zhuzhu almost since he was a child, and he felt unhappy...

I went to work on Monday and had a routine meeting in the morning. Sun Aiguo announced from above that there was no need to work overtime this week. Everyone went to and from get off work on time. Everyone should take a break.

Liu Hai was a little puzzled. The factory's tasks were so heavy, why didn't they work overtime?
No one below said anything. Sun Aiguo had a high prestige in the factory, and Secretary Yu also had his own tricks as a manager.

In addition, the workshops are all independent, and most of the workshop directors are old people from the original factory. There are some newcomers, but very few.

The technical departments are also scattered, such as motorcycle technical department, diesel engine technical department, excavator technical department, etc. There is no general technical department. If you have any problems, just go to the maintenance department to find someone...

Liu Hai started assembling a bulletproof vehicle. Two engines were manufactured. One was tested and handed over to the ministry for acceptance, and the other was installed on the vehicle.

When this car was being assembled, Li Dali and others were able to see how powerful his section chief was, including the fire protection system, oxygen system, airbag system, etc.

The complexity of the assembly made Li Dali and others feel that they would rather build an excavator.

Bangs don’t use any advanced assembly technology. The advanced assembly technology here refers to technical standardization.

For example, in the entire car circuit, different circuits can be replaced with wires of different colors. This will basically be standardized in later generations.

For more advanced ones, even the connectors of each circuit are different, which facilitates maintenance, inspection, etc. This assembly method is often used on aircraft. There was once a civil aviation aircraft maintenance personnel who plugged two plugs into the wrong one. It resulted in a disaster.

So from now on, there will be no plugs of the same color inside an aircraft inspection port. This was not the case before.

This car notch is not going to use this technology, just follow this world's technology, anyway, just mark it when you assemble it yourself.

This is also the reason why Li Dali and others feel their scalps numb. Is this thing a thread?You must know that other car circuits only have a few wires.

I didn't feel anything about my bangs. Compared to the airplanes I came into contact with, what was it?The total length of wires used on an aircraft can exceed dozens of kilometers, especially for large civil aviation aircraft...

It took five days to install the bulletproof vehicle, and another three days to install a test vehicle, which had airbags and so on, for display to Big Brother, and also brought a leather dummy, just like the dummy used for boxing in later generations. .

They also trained technicians for three days, but there was no other way. The technicians had to understand Russian, and Li Dali and the others had no foreign language talent.

In early September of 59, Big Brother's bulletproof vehicles began to be shipped. The inside of the vehicle did not look so luxurious, but the thick Russian instructions explained everything.

Liu Hai took the opportunity to go back to his hometown to relax and unwind.

This year, there is an additional reservoir in my hometown, the Ming Tombs Reservoir, which is not very far away. Then there are a lot of paddy fields in the village. In the past, the paddy fields occupied a very small area.

"Xiaohai, do you think it's okay?" the captain asked, pointing to a patch of rice.

The large area of ​​rice near the well water on the mountain is much greener than other places.

"This is a good thing." Liu Hai knew that due to the low temperature of the spring water, the maturity period of rice was later than that of the same seeds elsewhere.

But the taste is better. I have heard in my lifetime that there is some rice in Kyoto, which is irrigated by a certain spring...

"Really? I thought there was something wrong." The captain has seen this kind of thing before, but it was very small. There are very few of this kind in this blockbuster.

"Our harvest here is good this year, and many young men in the village are getting married." The captain said with a smile.

Liu Hai looked at the rice fields, which are the roots of farmers. There are also cabbages and radishes in the corn fields. These are extra income.

There is already a big pot of rice in the village, but Liu Hai eats it by himself every time he comes back. Everyone's face becomes rosy after eating the big pot of rice, and even the dogs in the village become fatter.

Big pot rice is a complete test of human nature. When eating, you have to compete with who can eat more. If you eat too much, I won't be able to eat less. Even if you can't finish it and throw it away in private, you must have enough when you make the meal.

It also depends on the ability of the cadres in each village. Some cadres are selfish and have a good relationship with themselves, so they can arrange some easy tasks, while those with a bad relationship can have difficult arrangements.

There are some bastards and so on, it’s all in vain if you say anything...

The captain looked at Liu Hai's two-wheeled motorcycle and was amazed in his heart. This young man is really good at driving.

There are a lot of cabbages and radishes planted throughout the township. In two months, the factory will come and weigh them.

After relaxing in my hometown for a few days, Liu Hai returned to the city.

"Xiao Hai, it's a good thing we didn't go to the press group." Sun Aiguo said in a low voice when Liu Hai came to sell the fake news.

"What happened?" Liu Hai was not surprised at all when he heard this.

"Aren't we going to the countryside this time? You know what's going on there. The people we entertain are dressed like country people..." Sun Aiguo said.

Was Liu Hai surprised when he heard this?Not surprisingly, what are the virtues of Western journalists?Don’t know yourself?
It can be fabricated out of thin air, let alone something like this.

"You know this, but don't tell it. If you ask me, you deserve it. This time, no one from our Machinery Department is going to the press corps. The other departments have a lot to offer." Sun Aiguo said very cryptically.

Liu Hai returned to the maintenance department and shook his head. Anyway, the matter of the press team is not easy to deal with. There is something to say when he goes back. As long as you want to find fault with you, whatever you do is wrong. It's a pity that some people can't understand it.

Anyway, Liu Hai would not go to such a risky activity even if he was pretending to be sick.

When he arrived at the factory the next day, Liu Hai was called over by the factory director: "Come and take a look. These are embroidery samples. What do you think?"

A piece of cloth was laid on Sun Aiguo's desk, with pieces of embroidery inside.

"Tsk, tsk." Liu Hai wiped his hands and picked up a piece of embroidery, a lifelike red carp with a white background. Next to the carp, there were two Chinese characters for "carp" and English.

Picking up another piece, there is a lotus on it, a pink lotus. This gradient color is vivid in the embroidery.

"Director, this is so good, the ones on the seats don't need to be so good." Liu Hai felt that it was a bit of a waste to put this thing in the car.

"That's enough, our car must be the best." Sun Aiguo waved his hand directly after hearing Liu Hai's words.

When Liu Hai heard this, he couldn't refute it. He just thought that tens of thousands of units would be sold in the future, and he thought too much. High-end ones would not produce that many units.

"That's it for now."

"How long will it take for the first prototype car to be ready? Boss Huo has urged me several times."

"Don't blame me for this. I gave you the drawings anyway, and I started assembling them after the parts were completed." Liu Hai shrugged.

"I'll go take a look and send the prototype over first, but Boss Huo wants to open a production line on Hong Kong Island, what do you think?" Sun Aiguo asked again.

Liu Hai quickly shook his head: "Director, I don't understand who you think I am."

"In case the superiors agree, your maintenance department may have to send people to Hong Kong Island to assist in production." Sun Aiguo added.

Liu Hai understood that Li Dali and others were expected to be on a business trip for a while, so he nodded: "We obey the leader and follow the command."
