After two days of hard work.
The transformation of the furnace has come to an end, and the technical masters are doing the final assembly work.
Li Aiguo also breathed a sigh of relief and was about to go back to the office to prepare for tomorrow's driving mission.
At this time, there was a noise outside.
Someone was saying something in Russian. Li Aiguo’s Russian was at the max level, so he could naturally understand it.
"Professor Kirov, this is the maintenance workshop at the front door, responsible for modifying locomotives. You will be able to see the equipment in a moment."
"You know, dear comrade translator , how important this is to me! If that little driver dares to deceive me, please believe that I will kick his ass with my leather shoes to make him understand that science cannot be blasphemed."
Four or five blonds. Lao Maozi, led by Deputy Director Zhou of Dalian Factory and accompanied by Chief Xing of the Locomotive Department, entered the maintenance workshop.
Those old men were wearing fur coats, marching hats, and big leather shoes.
These have already shown their identity - experts sent by Big Brother to assist.
This year is five or six years.
The big brother is still the good big brother and has sent many expert engineers to help the little brothers with construction.
Of course, these assistance experts are not free.
Experts each earn a monthly salary of 2,500 kilograms of millet, which is said to cost 200 million rubles a year.
The money borrowed from Big Brother is only 1.2 billion rubles.
Being poor in the mountains, no one asks, no matter what Lao Maozi’s true purpose is.
During our time of poverty and poverty, others were willing to lend a helping hand and helped us objectively, so we must not forget our roots.
The maintenance workshop fell into silence due to the arrival of these experts.
The workers stopped working one after another.
How have they ever seen so many old men at one time!
Director Zhang of the maintenance workshop hurriedly greeted them and asked with a smile: "Chief Duan, who are these comrades?"
"They are foreign experts from the Dalian factory. They are here to visit the automatic fuel ignition equipment."
Duanchang Xing is also full of worries.
There are also many railway assistance experts, and Duan Chang Xing has also contacted many.
It’s just that the level of experts this time is too high, all of them are professors.
And Deputy Factory Director Zhou is leading the team. If something happens, the Qianmen Locomotive Depot will definitely be in big trouble.
Duanchang Xing was just thinking about making introductions to the aid experts when the fifty-year-old expert named Kirov had already gotten straight into the locomotive.
The old guys next to them spread their hands and said to Duan Chang Xing: "Dear Comrade Duan Chang, please forgive Professor Kirov for being rude. He is that kind of purebred Steam engine enthusiasts, you know what we mean."
"Forgive. Forgive"
What else could Duan Chang Xing say!
He could only pray in his heart that there would be no problems with Li Aiguo's design.
At this time, Engineer Zheng rushed into the maintenance workshop after receiving the news.
I learned from Deputy Director Zhou that Professor Kirov was leading the team this time, and a sinister smile appeared on his lips.
Professor Kirov is the real designer of the Forward furnace prototype. It is said that he is still an important figure in the scientific community and a weapons expert.
This old man has a weird temper and hates others touching his designs.
Li Aiguo’s random behavior this time will definitely anger the old man.
Sure enough.
A moment later, a violent sound came from the locomotive.
"Nonsense, just nonsense! Where is the safety valve! My safety valve is gone! I can't find it! What stupid thing did you do? Please save me. Tell me something."
At this time, Duan Chang Xing was so worried that his forehead was covered with sweat. He could only give Li Aiguo a look: "Comrade Patriot, I have to trouble you to go up and explain. Well, you must pay attention to your attitude. If this old comrade falls down today, Here we are all inseparable.”
"Don't worry!"
Li Aiguo entered the locomotive, and Kirov, who was furious, grabbed his arm: "You little brat, look at your disgrace! Why did you destroy the safety valve? If the furnace pressure is too high, I'll see what you do."
A blond and blue-eyed old professor, speaking in authentic Northeastern dialect, spitting foam in all directions, this style of painting completely confused Li Aiguo.
Well, let’s wipe off the vomiting star first.
"Professor, you can speak Chinese." Li Aiguo raised his sleeve and wiped the Tumo star.
Kirov stroked his gray beard and felt a little proud: "I have a student who is from the Northeast."
Li Aiguo: "."
Kirov walked by God: "Don't talk about whether these are there or not. Where is the safety valve!"
Li Aiguo squatted down, pulled out the flashlight, and looked under the furnace: "I moved it below."
< br>"Why move?" Kirov frowned.
Li Aiguo explained: "I have tested the coefficient of the safety valve. Generally, it takes 25 kPa for the safety valve to start.
However, during the use of the boiler, the inner wall will inevitably be covered with scale, causing the safety valve to The sensitivity is reduced.
Installing it below will help to increase the sensitivity."
As soon as these words came out, Kirov's face changed drastically.
They did not consider this issue in their design.
Of course, this does not mean that the designs of Kirov experts are unrealistic.
But as the last safety guarantee of the furnace, the safety valve has a very high sensitivity.
The furnace is made of special steel and can withstand an air pressure of 35 kPa.
Whether it starts the safety valve at 25 kPa or 26 kPa, it doesn't mean much.
What Li Aiguo adopted was just an extreme design.
After Kirov figured out the problem, he did not make excuses for himself. He patted Li Aiguo heavily on the shoulder: "You are great for thinking of this, bro!"
bro? ? ?
"Professor, you have a black student?" Li Aiguo was surprised.
Kirov: "Hey, how did you know? Jack is from the East Coast CPUSA. He is a very interesting young man."
CPUSA is our organization in the United States, its full name is for TheCommunistPartyoftheUnitedStatesofAmerica.
There are many oppressed black guys in the organization.
Li Aiguo instantly felt as if he had a huge family.
Kirov straightened his collar and said: "I am also a professor at Moscow University, and my students come from all over the world, so I learned some foreign languages from them. Now I am proficient in eight languages."
< br>In these days, Big Brother is very hospitable. He often invites the children of his younger brother’s family to study at his home, and he is still in charge of food, housing, and introduction partners.
It is no exaggeration to say that his students come from all over the world.
However, it should be said that he is proficient in the dialects of eight countries.
Li Aiguo said: "It seems a little strange that you speak with a Northeastern accent. I am a regular technical secondary school graduate and I am proficient in Russian. Otherwise, let's communicate in Russian?"
" That’s fine, I feel a little weird, my tongue is always tied.”
Professor Kirov returned to his native language and became more serious.
“Dear Comrade Li Aiguo, can you help me explain the principle of your equipment?”
“The principle is very simple. It mainly uses atomized diesel fuel to produce up to At ultra-high temperatures of two thousand degrees Celsius, the coal inside the furnace will be completely burned. Of course, in order to avoid explosions, our equipment will be used in the furnace."
Li Aiguo briefly explained the design ideas.
As an expert who specializes in furnace issues, Kirov understood the mystery even though Li Aiguo’s explanation was vague.
He felt that this idea was feasible.
“Take it apart, take it apart quickly, I can’t wait.”
Li Aiguo: "It will start driving tomorrow. If we dismantle it now, it will delay the driving test."
"Where are the drawings? Bring the drawings." Kirov looked at Li Aiguo, widened his eyes and said, "You guys Don’t you even have the drawings?”
Under the locomotive.
Hearing the angry sounds inside gradually disappear, Duan Chang Xing also breathed a sigh of relief.
Seeing his expression, Zheng Gong snorted disapprovingly.
That old man Kirov is not a fool. He moved his furnace. This guy must have overturned the front door of the locomotive section today.
What happened in the next second made Zheng Gong doubt his life.
The side door of the locomotive opened, and Professor Li Aiguo and Kirov came down one after another.
The two of them were chatting as they walked, looking as close as if they had been friends for many years.
You must know that when Professor Kirov came to the Dalian factory, the factory director held a welcome dinner, but the old man turned it down because he was busy at work.
Duan Chang Xing's heart finally fell to the ground. He walked up quickly and said with a smile: "Comrade experts, the driving test needs to be carried out tomorrow. I will temporarily arrange for you to stay in the guest house of our locomotive depot.
< br>It’s just time for dinner, we’ll be there.”
Professor Kirov waved his hand: “Dear Comrade Duan Chang, thank you for your kindness. I have made an appointment with Comrade Li Aiguo and are ready. Go drink at a tavern in Zhengyangmen.
According to Li, there is the best wine in the city. I don’t believe there is any better wine than our vodka in the world.”
Hear the words.
Duanchang Xing couldn’t help but pinch his brows, wondering what kind of trick Li Aiguo was planning to do.
It’s just that Professor Kirov’s level is too high, and it’s not easy for him to stop him. He can only turn his attention to Deputy Director Zhou, hoping that he can stop him.
But Deputy Director Zhou turned his head and pretended not to see it. He couldn't afford to offend this old man.
In order to avoid trouble, Duan Chang Xing pulled Li Aiguo aside, warned him for a while, and took out thirty yuan and handed it to him.
"Patriot, you must entertain this old professor today. This is a rectification task!"
It seems that I can eat and drink with public funds! Li Aiguo took the money and asked: "Chief Duan, is this person very powerful?"
"More than just powerful!"
After being caught off guard by the sudden arrival of the aid experts just now, , Duan Chang Xing was not idle either, and quickly figured out the identity of the other party.
"The prototype of the forward steam locomotive was designed by Professor Kirov. He comes from the Moscow Central Research Institute and is also a professor at Moscow University. He is a first-class scientist among Lao Maozi."< br>
As he spoke, Duan Chang Xing lowered his voice: "It is said that Professor Kirov is also a weapons expert. Do you know about rocket launchers? The rocket launchers we introduced from Lao Maozi this year were his handiwork."
Li Aiguo's eyes widened: "Why does such a famous scientist come to us?"
It's not that Li Aiguo judges a gentleman's heart with a villain's heart.
No one is willing to send their own outstanding talents to help their little brother’s family!
"Where is the assistance? Professor Kirov is here to inspect the work of experts Lao Maozi."
"This"
Li Aiguo's eyes lit up: "This is great!"
The rocket launcher introduced in China from Lao Maozi this year is the RPG-2 type.
At this time, Lao Maozi had already begun research on RPG-7.
Compared with the famous RPG-7 in later generations, RPG-2 is just a younger brother.
Not to mention the Type 56 40mm rocket launcher we produced by imitating the RPG-2. If you can find a way to get some information
"What?! Patriot, you must not cause trouble." Duan Chang Xing felt bad when he saw his appearance.
“Don’t worry!”
A proud smile appeared at the corner of Li Aiguo’s mouth.
He was thinking of exchanging the automatic fuel ignition equipment for something better.
Professor Kirov delivered it to the door. It was like being dozed off and delivering a pillow.
It’s just that we still have to find out the details of Professor Kirov, so as not to steal the chicken but lose the rice.
The other side.
Gong Zheng still didn’t give up.
He ran to Kirov and muttered: "Professor, the train driver at the Qianmen depot is a sharp-tongued guy. You must not believe his words. If the furnace explodes while driving, It's not a big deal to blow that guy up. It's not good if it affects your reputation."
"You are?" Professor Kirov looked at him and frowned.
Gong Zheng explained: "I am the technical representative stationed at the Qianmen Locomotive Depot of our Dalian factory."
"No, I am asking you if you participated in the work of transforming the furnace?"< br>
“No.”
“Since there is no, then we have nothing to talk about. My time is very precious, and I will not waste it on some meaningless people. ”
"This"
Gong Zheng wanted to say something else, but was pulled aside by Deputy Director Zhou.
Deputy Director Zhou scolded with a straight face: "Mr. Zheng, as the technical representative stationed in the section, you ignored the problems discovered by the forward locomotive during operation. Now, in the name of the deputy director, I will suspend Your job."
"Director, you are also fooling around with those train drivers! The thing they made was made by hammering, and it will definitely explode!" Workers Zheng found it difficult! Confidence.
He had already thought about how to complain, but now it was of no use at all.
Deputy Director Zhou looked at the backs of Li Aiguo and Professor Kirov and said, "Do you think Professor Kirov can see whether the equipment is feasible?"
Hearing this, Zheng There was a look of horror in the worker's eyes.
His hands trembled slightly, as if he was trying to suppress the fear in his heart.
Can a small train driver also do research? Impossible, absolutely impossible!
No, I still have a chance. When the boiler explodes tomorrow, everyone will believe that my point of view is correct.
"Comrade Patriot, is this the tavern you call? It's really small."
Outside the Zhengyangmen tavern.
Kirov looked up at the tavern with only two small fronts, looking slightly disgusted.
"Professor Kirov, we have an old saying in China, the mountains are not high, the immortals are famous. The water is not deep, the dragons are spiritual.
For us wine lovers "The decoration is not important, the important thing is that the wine tastes good," Li Aiguo said.
"Hey, this is a very good thing to say, so awesome! I have to write it down."
Professor Kirov took out a pen from his pocket and wrote down Li Aiguo's words in On the book.
Zhou Ke stood next to Professor Kirov, looking at the pedestrians around him with vigilance, his hands on his waist.
This time the Lao Maozi expert team came to the Qianmen Locomotive Depot, and they were followed by security personnel, but Professor Kirov was not willing to take those people with him.
His reason was: This time he was drinking with friends, what would happen if they followed him, and besides, this was the emperor’s feet, could anything happen?
Hearing that the old professor had even moved out from under the Emperor's feet, Deputy Director Zhou and Duan Chang Xing had no choice but to give up.
They can't admit in front of Big Brother that the capital may not be safe either.
But Zhou Ke was sent here anyway.
Zhou Ke is both the captain of the locomotive depot police station and a friend of Li Aiguo, so he is suitable for guard work.
After Li Aiguo finished speaking, he opened the door curtain of the tavern.
After he came to this world, he had a long-standing crush on the proprietress of the tavern. Bah, the old wine of the tavern, and he had long wanted to try it.
I was just busy driving and never had time.
After learning that Professor Kirov was also good at drinking, he took advantage of this opportunity to feast his eyes on it.
It is now noon, and there are not many guests in the tavern. There are only two or three people sitting here and there in the lobby.
They asked for a pot of wine and a stack of peanuts, and drank the wine slowly.
If you are reluctant to part with peanuts, a rusty nail will do the trick.
The smell of wine in the lobby is very strong, a bit like an ancient tavern.
However, what surprised Li Aiguo was that the owner of the tavern was not Xu Huizhen, but a pretty boy with oily hair and pink face.
This guy's hair is meticulously styled, and it's so shiny that a fly would slip on it. He's clearly in his twenties, but he looks like a high-quality man from later generations.
Li Aiguo looked through the window and saw Kirov still standing outside writing and drawing, so he was going to order some wine and food first.
There is a price list on the wall of the tavern.
Potato stewed beef, 35 cents
Pork and pickled cabbage powder, 28 cents
Chicken stewed with mushrooms, 15 cents
Stir-fried peanuts , five points
Old wine, a dime
Li Aiguo looked at the price list and said: "Comrade, bring me a plate of beef stew with potatoes, a plate of fried peanuts, a plate of pork and pickled cabbage noodles, and three pots of old wine."
We, Li Aiguo, also have to be extravagant when entertaining international friends.
“We don’t have anything you mentioned, only peanuts and old wine, do you want it?” The pretty boy raised his head and glanced at Li Aiguo lightly.
Li Aiguo looked at the beef stew on the counter next to him and frowned: "Isn't that beef stew?"
"It's beef stew, but it's not for sale."
"Hey, this is the first time I've heard that beef stew is not sold in the pub."
"That's how our store is. If you like it, don't let it go." The boy said with a cold face.
In the past, Li Aiguo would have had a good fight with him.
It’s just that he invited Kirov to drink today because he had important things to do.
There is no time to spend energy on such people.
"Okay, let's have two plates of peanuts and three jugs of old wine."
Li Aiguo took out the money and put it on the counter, then went out to invite Kirov.
“These workers have no manners at all!”
The pretty boy pulled the money into the drawer and shouted to the back: “Xiao Wang, help the guest get two pots of old wine. Make two more plates of peanuts. Add more salt and fry them a little darker."
A head popped out from behind and asked with a smile: "Manager Liao, who do you want to mess with?"
"Go, go, go, what do you know, that guy actually called me a comrade, I am the manager!"
Liao Yucheng picked up the steaming plate of potato stew and went in. When we got to the back kitchen, we placed them on the square table and tasted them slowly.
Xiao Wang looked at him with a sigh in his heart.
What a good tavern, what Manager Liao has done to it, may become obsolete in a short time.
It's a pity that he has a solid foundation in the Daqianmen Street Office and is a good talker. If he deceives Manager Xu, what can he do?
Xiao Wang did not add more salt to the peanuts as Liao Yucheng said, but added more oil.
After the peanuts were fried, he poured three bottles of wine and brought them over.
"Comrade, please use it with ease."
"Thank you, comrade."
Li Aiguo took it, picked up the flask, poured a glass of wine, and handed it to the person sitting opposite. Professor Kirov.
"Lao Ji, this tavern in Zhengyangmen, although it looks a bit shabby, is famous for its home-brewed old wine. Come and try it!"
Ji Professor Love was a good drinker, so he couldn't wait to pick up the glass and drink it all in one gulp.
Bah. As soon as the wine entered his mouth, his expression changed drastically and he suddenly spit it out.
“Dear Driver Li, is this how you treat your friends? Is this wine?”
"That's impossible!"
Li Aiguo felt something was wrong, picked up the wine glass and took a sip, and suddenly frowned.
Hey, this wine is more acidic than vinegar. It can be used to make sour soup dumplings!
Li Aiguo raised his head and looked at Xiao Wang and asked: "Comrade, did you mix the wrong wine just now and put the vinegar bottle into that wine jug? Otherwise, you can help us change two more bottles now." Pot. "
His intention is obvious. As long as the wine is changed, the matter will be revealed and he will avoid being embarrassed in front of the old Maozi expert.
It’s just that Xiao Wang seems to have other ideas.
He looked confused and said: "Yes, this is the wine in our tavern. If you want to cause trouble, I can call out Manager Liao Yucheng now."
< br>Liao Yucheng!
Li Aiguo’s eyes widened instantly.
Good guy, isn’t this guy Chen Xueru’s husband in the original work?
In the original work, Liao Yucheng is not necessarily the worst person, but he is definitely the most obscene one.
Liao Yucheng originally had a wife, but because he was greedy for the Chen family's wealth, he concealed his marriage and married Chen Xueru.
After getting married, Liao Yucheng had a soft life for several years, and then ran away with a large amount of money.
Because Li Aiguo robbed Chen Xueru and changed the world line, Liao Yucheng has now become the public manager of the tavern.
He relapsed into his old habit and turned his crooked ideas on Xu Huizhen.
This comrade waiter probably couldn’t stand what Liao Yucheng was doing, so he deliberately misbehaved.
Li Aiguo narrowed his eyes, took a deep look at the waiter, and suddenly smiled and said, "I'll trouble you then."
Xiao Wang turned around and walked into the kitchen with a sigh of relief.
He felt as if Li Aiguo had seen through.
But for Sister Xu, I can’t worry about so much.
In the kitchen.
Liao Yucheng was enjoying his meal. When he heard that a customer had complained about something wrong with the wine in the tavern, he suddenly became cold.
"How many times have I told you that we are a public-private joint tavern and we cannot rely on the guests for everything. If they don't want to drink, they can get out!"
"That person's attitude is a bit tough. There seems to be some foundation. You have to come forward in person."
"Tough! I don't believe it. Who dares to cause trouble in a public-private joint venture?"
Liao Yucheng put down his bowls and chopsticks. Bu rushed to Li Aiguo.
"What's the matter, you want to cause trouble, buddy, why don't you look up and see what kind of shop this is!"
Hearing this, Li Aiguo just smiled faintly.
Seeing that Zhou Ke was about to stand up, he waved his hand gently to ask Zhou Ke to calm down.
Zhou Ke couldn't understand Li Aiguo's intention, so he slowly sat down.
This was the first time Professor Kirov had seen such a thing, and he was surprised and said: "Driver Li, are all your comrades who sell alcohol here so good? Is this still a place that serves the people?" (End of Chapter)< br>
