Chapter 454 The Change of Silly Zhu
The two entered the cafeteria and quickly lined up. The person serving food at the window was Sister Meng. Yang Xiaotao approached her but had not yet spoken. Sister Meng had sharp eyes and immediately spoke enthusiastically.
"Brother Yang, are you back? Haven't seen you for a while."
Yang Xiaotao smiled and said he was on a business trip, and then ordered a meat dish and a vegetarian dish, and two steamed buns with old noodles .
Sister Meng saw a spoonful go down, with a layer of meat on top, and it was covered firmly in the lunch box.
Both of them knew it was not convenient to talk, so they just said a few polite words.
"See you later, Brother Zhang."
"Okay!"
Yang Xiaotao left with the lunch box, Lou Xiao'e also went up to get food, and Sister Meng was polite and full A full spoonful.
As soon as Yang Xiaotao found Wang Fa and the others and sat down, Wang Guodong squeezed in with a lunch box next to him and pushed Wang Fa aside.
Li Nan, Xing Jiaqi and others at the same table were all wondering, when did the director come over to join us?
It’s just that they don’t dare to say that now the third workshop is very busy and earns a lot of money. If you offend the director and transfer you out with just one sentence, you will suffer a big loss.
The few people distanced themselves and knew that the director was looking for Yang Xiaotao, so they all listened with their ears pricked up.
Bringing the chili sauce on the table and grabbing a chopstick, Wang Guodong started talking about the steamed buns.
“I heard you are going to do something again?”
Yang Xiaotao was not surprised, and he also guessed that this was the case.
"Well, I haven't even written my horoscope yet. It's a bit early now."
"Early? It's late. That guy Lao Sun went to the cafeteria to look for you. It's my fault. I know you will come here."
"I won't say much else, Lao Sun is a nice guy, so I'll help him if I can."
It was Yang Xiaotao's turn to be surprised. , looked at Wang Guodong in surprise.
"What are you looking at? Do you think I will eat alone? Adding insult to injury?"
"Uh, isn't it?"
"Grandma! Who do you think I am?"
> Wang Guodong blew his beard and stared, very dissatisfied with Yang Xiaotao's answer.
After a long while, I stuffed a mouthful of steamed buns into my mouth and said, "This heating stove is enough to keep us busy in the third workshop. I understand that we can bite off more than we can chew."
"Besides, the eight workshops have secured water wells. If Old Sun fails this time, how will he raise his head in the workshop from now on? Even the workshop workers will have opinions..."
Wang Guodong said, Yang Xiaotao listened. He nodded silently.
"I can't guarantee it, but as long as the factory director agrees, I have no objection."
Yang Xiaotao thought about it for a while. Although there are several people in the workshop who can't be dealt with, Sun Guo is still worth it. befriended.
“As long as you have an idea.”
Wang Guodong was in a hurry to go back to the workshop to do some work, and they left the canteen after finishing their meal.
In the cafeteria, Liu Lan looked at the people eating. There were very few familiar faces, and even the people eating were not as lively as before.
After giving Xu Damao a spoonful of food, Liu Lan also wanted to say a few words to Xu Damao. After all, they had worked together for so long and they knew each other.
Unexpectedly, Xu Damao ignored her at all and was polite to the woman behind him. He even grabbed the lunch box and ordered another meat dish.
Yu Haitang.
Liu Lan recognized who this woman was.
Seeing Xu Damao following Yu Haitang diligently, Liu Lan threw the spoon and immediately changed.
Back in the kitchen, Liu Lan looked at Silly Zhu lying there leisurely and said something angrily.
"Si Zhu, didn't you see Xu Damao getting together with Yu Haitang? Such virtue is disgusting!"
Si Zhu frowned after hearing this, "Who? Xu Damao and Yu Haitang?"
"Is this woman stupid or stupid? Can a bad guy like Xu Damao like her?"
Liu Lan fanned the flames, "What's the point? Xu Damao has a sweet mouth and a lot of money, but that woman doesn't like it? ”
Si Zhu was stunned for a moment, then misfired.
“Xu Damao is so stupid.”
Silly Zhu cursed, and then listened to the assistant chefs around him talking about today’s meal. These days, the number of ingredients received in the cafeteria is much less than before. , the most important thing is that there is less meat.
The big guys are here to help, and they get paid less than the workers in the workshop. The reason why they can continue to work is because they can make money here, right?
But now, with so much less oil and water, the kitchen assistant already has some opinions.
Si Zhu naturally knew what was going on. He used to be the best cook in this steel rolling mill, but now that there is an extra person in the ring, he no longer has the previous spirit.
“Damn…”
Silly Zhu didn’t say who it was. After all, there were too many people involved.
He wanted to find trouble with Xu Damao, but in a flash he thought of the old lady's instructions, and Silhu suppressed his anger again.
"Let you be proud first, and I will take care of you after a while."
Liu Lan originally thought that Sha Zhu would go to Xu Damao to trouble him when he heard about this, but he Unexpectedly, he held back.
I couldn’t help but look at Shazhu curiously. It seemed that Shazhu was a little different now.
In the afternoon, Yang Xiaotao continued to work in the office. The design structure of the steam engine has already been developed. What Yang Xiaotao needs to do now is to understand the principles and transform the steam engine.
The pencil kept drawing on the drawing, and the parameters were calculated one by one. His busy and serious look made Lou Xiaoe look over from time to time, and then carefully avoided his eyes.
It wasn't until Lou Xiao'e told him that he was off work that Yang Xiaotao raised his head and moved his neck, making a clicking sound.
"You go first, I'll be busy for a while."
Yang Xiaotao picked up the enamel jar. The water in it was still warm. It must have been Lou Xiao'e who arrived.
"Okay." Lou Xiao'e agreed, and then said, "Go back early, don't be tired."
Yang Xiaotao waved his hand indifferently, and Lou Xiao'e couldn't say much. The relationship between the two of them was not that close yet.
When Yang Xiaotao left the office, it was already dark. After walking out of the office building, Yang Xiaotao found his bicycle and walked to the courtyard.
Back in the courtyard, Yang Xiaotao made some food for himself and read books on the desk.
Nowadays, reading books can not only earn credits, but also learn the structure of steam engines. It kills two birds with one stone. Yang Xiaotao read it very seriously.
……
After returning to Sijiu City, Team Leader Yu has not been idle.
Come here today and go there tomorrow. Time is tight, and the boss is still pressing, so he has to do everything personally.
No, as soon as I got some information, I came to the section chief's office. "Lao Yu, have you asked?"
Team leader Yu nodded, picked up the jar, took a sip of water, pushed up his glasses, "Speak."
< br>
"But it's not a woman, it's a man?"
The section chief was a little surprised when he heard this. He didn't expect that Ding Junhong, who seemed determined to die, was not as good as the female Li Man. It's true that people can't be judged by their appearance.
"They are an action team, under the command of Butterfly. This time something happened suddenly. After getting the target and leaving Sijiu City, they started planning..."
The situation explained by Team Leader Yu to the other party Speak out, reveal everything from their identities to where they hide, how they contact each other, and how they connect.
“What do you want to do next?”
The section chief asked Team Leader Yu whether Team Leader Yu had more experience in dealing with these rats.
"Section Chief, I want to follow the clues..."
"In principle, I agree, but the protection of No. 46 cannot be relaxed."
"I know, this matter I will arrange things.”
“Yes!”
...
In the following days, Yang Xiaotao focused on drawing design. He got up early and went to bed late, running between the steel rolling mill and the courtyard. Not only did he read two books, he also earned more than 300 credits. Even the design and structure of the steam engine have also been improved.
At the steel rolling mill, when Liu Huaimin came back and heard Yang Youning talking about the matter, the two of them did not rush Yang Xiaotao, but just waited for the progress of the matter.
It’s March in a blink of an eye.
On Friday, Yang Xiaotao said something to Xu Yuanshan in the afternoon and got off work early.
I rode my bike back to Yangjiazhuang, ready to pick up Ran Qiuye, but I didn't expect to run into an acquaintance as soon as I entered the village.
"Director Gao!"
This person is Gao Yufeng from the Academy of Agricultural Sciences, who is leading a group of people to survey the terrain in the village.
Although I have seen it a long time ago, now that spring has begun and the land is thawing, the people at the Academy of Agricultural Sciences are very concerned about this matter.
“I heard you are on a business trip?”
"Well, I came back last Saturday."
Yang Xiaotao took out the cigarette politely, and Gao Yufeng nodded, "This place will be busy in the future, so you'd better go out less."
Yang Xiaotao understands the situation, and matters on this farm must be treated with caution.
Now that Yangjiazhuang has such conditions, it is naturally because of Yangcun No. 1.
If the results cannot be achieved this time, it is difficult to say whether the farm can continue to exist.
Yang Xiaotao knows this matter, Taiye and the others know it, and Gao Yufeng knows it even more.
And Gao Yufeng looks further. Although the relationship with Mao Xiong is a bit tense now, it is not that they have stopped communicating.
There is news from above that if Yangcun No. 1 works, it will become an important export resource, which can be exchanged not only for foreign exchange, but also for machinery and equipment and other materials.
This is also a rare export resource at present.
The two talked for a while and walked to a pressurized water well. At this moment, several people gathered here and were setting up wooden shelves one by one.
Gao Yufeng stepped forward and looked at the pressurized water well with a happy expression, "This pressurized water well is very good. Our village has installed pressurized water wells. It will be more convenient to use water during spring plowing."
Yang Xiaotao nodded after hearing this. When he came back, he saw many pressure wells erected in the surrounding villages.
“If it were earlier, we could dig two more wells, and that area could be planted.”
Gao Yufeng pointed to the land to the north of the village, where there is a high slope with drilling on it. Well is not easy.
Yang Xiaotao was thinking about whether to tell him about the well drilling machine. If he had a well drilling machine, he would be able to drill a well in less than two days.
By then, combined with the water pressure well, the planting volume of Yangcun No. 1 on this piece of land will be doubled.
However, Yang Xiaotao thought for a moment and still did not tell Gao Yufeng.
After all, the steam engine has not been solved yet, so saying it now is like making a fool of yourself. If it fails, it will be a slap in the face.
Yang Xiaotao didn't say much. After dinner in the evening, he went to the village with Gao Yufeng the next day to inspect the terrain, organize farm tools, and prepare to start work.
As March enters, the weather in Sijiucheng has become colder in the morning and evening, and extremely hot at noon.
The land became soft, and the surrounding villages began to prepare for farming. The cattle and donkeys were pulled out and began to plow the land.
Some people planting winter wheat are already thinking about how to water the wheat.
It’s the New Year and it hasn’t rained yet.
Siheyuan.
As the sun shines into the middle courtyard, sleeping people wake up and start their busy day.
Workers who are not at work have no time to spare and help clean up the house.
Si Zhu got up early in the morning to fetch water and wash his face. He fell asleep in the middle of the night last night, but the excitement on his face was still there.
I finally received news from my third aunt yesterday. Today, a girl agrees to meet. Whether it will happen or not depends on today.
After eating, Silly Zhu found a gray sweater from the cabinet. He put it on regardless of whether it was cold outside. He was wearing a white shirt underneath. His hair was washed and his nails were clipped. His face was originally His beard, which was not much, was trimmed in a pretentious manner.
In fact, Silly Zhu wanted to grow a beard, at least it would be a sign to prove his manhood, so that the suspicions in the courtyard would be overturned.
But in order to look younger, Shazhu shaved off his hair without hesitation.
As for whether a man is a man or not, as long as he is married, his wife will naturally know.
He is mentally happy and smiles when he meets everyone.
Qin Huairu got up to clean up Jia Dongxu as usual, and opened the door to let some air in, so as to avoid causing trouble.
When I went out, I saw Silly Zhu walking towards the backyard beaming with joy. He just had the word "good thing" written on his face, for fear that others wouldn't know.
"Zhuzi, why don't you go to the old lady's house so early."
Qin Huairu greeted.
Si Zhu is a person who is in high spirits when happy events happen. Seeing that it was Qin Huairu, he originally wanted to share this good thing, but these days he has to listen to the old lady and deliberately keep a distance from Qin Huairu, just to be able to Find a wife.
Now that he is about to meet his partner, Silly Zhu doesn’t want to cause trouble. He glanced at Qin Huairu and suppressed his psychological secrets. He grinned and said, "Ah, I will carry the old lady out for a walk now. I am always at home. It’s easy to get sick if you stay here.”
With that said, Silly Zhu walked to the backyard.
When Qin Huairu saw Silly Zhu's appearance, she lost all her previous attentiveness, and there was no desire to look at her in her eyes.
He hesitated to speak, and could only fiddle with his clothes thoughtfully.
