Chapter 105 The Minister Called and the Factory Was Decided
They were busy with production for several days and Minister Wang did not show up. Just when Sun Xiaoshan thought that the fighter plane issue had fallen through, Minister Wang called him.
"Xiaoshan, the military factory matter has been settled. The drawing you gave me is very needed. Please prepare it here. We will come to present the award to you in the afternoon."
When Sun Xiaoshan wanted to say something else, he was interrupted by Minister Wang.
"Okay, there's nothing more to say. I'll just tell you so that you can be mentally prepared. The reward is a courtyard house with one entrance."
"It's not far from your house. Just drive behind you to the wall and you will reach the courtyard. Besides that, there is the thing you want most..."
The reward was given just by going to the courtyard house, and it was next to their house, just separated by a wall.
There have been many people in the Ministry of Personnel who have investigated Sun Xiaoshan's situation these days, and even Lou Xiaoe has been investigated as well.
Although Lou Xiao'e's family's identity is relatively sensitive, Sun Xiaoshan's identity is good, and now they have made a plaque for Sun Xiaoshan as a people's hero.
It was for the purpose of protecting Lou Xiaoe. With this plaque, Sun Xiaoshan no longer had to worry.
This plaque was obtained by Zhao Zhengwei, who used many connections. The main reason was the drawings that Sun Xiaoshan brought out this time, which were too important.
Then why is he working so hard? This is enough. Isn't there anything he needs to worry about?
"Thank you, Minister Wang."
"You're welcome. This is what you deserve. Our country is still very weak and needs knowledge..."
The two didn't say much on the phone. Minister Wang hung up because he had a meeting. Sun Xiaoshan was so happy.
He was so happy that he went to the workshop, chatted with Zhang Lin, and checked the work in the workshop.
Zhang Lin could see that Sun Xiaoshan was in a very good mood today, so he also wanted to know what Sun Xiaoshan had encountered today.
"Xiaoshan, did you find some money today? Why are you so happy?"
Sun Xiaoshan smiled. He had no intention of hiding anything, so he pulled him aside.
"The matter of the military factory has been decided, and the minister will come back this afternoon to announce it."
Zhang Lin is still a soldier at heart. When he heard that they could actually set up a military factory, he was extremely excited.
This is a military factory, they really did it. Another point is that their car has not been completed yet, but the military factory has already confirmed it, which shows trust in them.
"It's really, really great. We can set up a military base. I came to you just for this military factory. We can stay here. It's great."
He was also very excited. After all, this was his pursuit, his dream, what he wanted to see, and the result of his hard work.
"Don't say too much now. The minister and others haven't arrived yet, and nothing has been confirmed. But the minister has already made the call, so that's basically it."
Zhang Lin may not tell anyone else, but he must tell Zhou Li, because this is the joint effort of the three of them, and they must share the results together.
"Don't talk to anyone else, talk to Lao Zhou first."
The two found Zhou Li again, and they discovered that Zhou Li was even more excited than them. It turned out that she was a person with a rich inner world.
They have been preparing this morning and trying to get themselves into the best condition possible because something very important might be happening next.
"Our frame is almost done. Why don't we assemble one and let our leaders see the real thing."
After hearing the news, Zhou Li was extremely excited. After he calmed down, he remembered that they now met the conditions to assemble a truck.
"What are we waiting for? Let's work together and try to assemble a truck before the afternoon."
Sun Xiaoshan also became interested. After all, if they could come up with a truck now, it would be more convincing to them. Although the drawings of the fighter plane had been approved, what they were assembling now was a truck.
"Let's go, let's go together."
"Xiaoshan, you are responsible for the carriage, Lao Zhou, you and your men are responsible for the power part, and I will be responsible for the front of the car. Let's act separately."
……
It seems that the impact of this assembly line on the steel rolling mill is quite large. Although they have not yet reached the scale of assembly line production, they have gradually become accustomed to this production method.
They didn't rest for the whole morning, but they worked so fast. The main reason was that workers of this era didn't know what laziness was. They just wanted to contribute.
After they knew that they were going to build a truck, they never slacked off and would not slack off. This is their honor and what they yearn for in their hearts.
"Master Bai, this place is a key place and an important connection point. You must be serious about it."
Although Bai Sanhu is only a level five welder, his welding skills are definitely enough to weld vehicles.
The difficulty of this is really beyond words, and the craftsmanship is much better than Sun Xiaoshan's.
"Okay, Chief Sun, don't worry, we make a living by this skill."
Looking at this and the iron frames, Sun Xiaoshan had an idea. He could use iron to make a frame and protect it with wood, thus saving some steel.
"Forget about using steel to make the guardrail this time. Next time, here, here, and other unimportant places like here, you can use wood. The same goes for the wooden frame. There's no need to use steel and waste resources."
His words aroused the agreement of the people around him. Although they were guarding a steel mill, their steel output was still quite scarce.
Steel is a precious commodity nowadays, so being able to save it would be a great benefit.
But these decisions need to be made by the leaders. The workers cannot decide such big things. But since Sun Xiaoshan said it, then it is possible.
It’s just that they haven’t reached the point where they can save costs yet, they’re still in the research and development stage, and what he said now is just an idea.
"Team Leader Song, let's split into two groups and go have dinner. We can't go without eating."
The whole morning passed in his work. At noon, they divided into two groups to eat. If Sun Xiaoshan had not strongly requested, none of them would have been willing to go to eat.
Because the first car was about to be assembled, they didn't want to leave. After all, this was their job.
"Okay, divide into groups and go to eat. Man is iron and rice is steel, you can't skip eating."
"No, Chief Sun, the car is almost finished, let's finish it first."
"Yes, Chief Sun, this is all we have left. We'll talk about it after we finish the work. We have to finish the work even if we don't eat."
……
The workers at No. 1 Middle School were arguing with each other, and in the end no one wanted to eat.
There was no other way Sun Xiaoshan could do but go to the cafeteria by himself to pack some food for them.
Fortunately, there were steamed buns in the cafeteria today, so he directly bought enough steamed buns for twenty or thirty people. This was also because he was the section chief, otherwise the cafeteria would not have sold him so many steamed buns as there was a limited supply.
