Fang Dongping spat out a puff of smoke rings and wrote lightly: "Why should I tell the truth?"

Niu Xiaoqiang then remembered the pimple in his master's thoughts, and he changed the topic with a dry laugh: "Master, even if you don't want to work for others in vain, you can't make a hindrance from it, right?"

Fang Dongping glared at Niu Xiaoqiang: "Am I making a hindrance from this?" Clearly is to tell the truth, your brother is indeed very smart, but too short-sighted, I originally wanted to teach him the technology of mechanical research and development, and even wanted to teach him the diesel engine technology at the bottom of the box, but he said that it is better to learn more than to learn well, I heard this to know that he is so good in this life, this cooperation project with Baotou a machine, the factory must be playing my idea, I have no obligation to give them these officials to work hard, if I do not participate in the research and development work, do you think that with those technicians in the factory can succeedWhen the time comes, the major event of Baotou will be delayed, how should this account be calculated?"

Niu Xiaoqiang was speechless by Fang Dongping, and was stunned for a while before he spoke: "Master is right, we can't delay the Baotou machine." ”

Fang Dongping patted Niu Xiaoqiang's shoulder: "You are my real heir to the mantle, whether it is ability or pattern, you are much stronger than your brother, if you can join this project, I am willing to help, but you are still young, and you have no good results, so I will cherish myself, the skills in my hands are only taught to those I am willing to teach, and others want to take advantage of me." ”

Niu Xiaoqiang laughed: "It's rare that Master values me so much, what if I don't work harder?" Master rest assured, in less than a year, I will be able to learn all the techniques of pressing the bottom of the box, and when the time comes, I will be full of confidence in opening a factory." ”

Fang Dongping admired Niu Xiaoqiang's strong self-motivation very much, and he nodded again and again: "Not bad, yes, the children can be taught." ”

At this time, the announcer's voice came from the loudspeaker installed in the bow of the ship: "Passengers, please take note that the ship is about to start, please sit in your own place and do not stay on the side of the ship to avoid falling overboard." ”

After two reminders, the ship's whistle sounded, and the ship left the dock and headed for the city of Qingjiang upstream.

Niu Xiaoqiang had never been on a steamer, and he was very seasick and dizzy along the way, and he vomited. Fang Dongping shook his head with a wry smile on the side: "I knew that your seasickness was so serious, I should have prepared seasickness medicine in advance." ”

Niu Xiaoqiang was about to vomit out the bile, and he could only retch now: "Vomit...... Master...... Vomit...... Why didn't you prepare earlier...... Vomit...... It's over...... Vomit...... I'm going to vomit to death......"

Fang Dongping stretched out his hand and patted Niu Xiaoqiang's back: "When I come back, I will definitely buy you seasickness medicine, as for now, you can only persevere." ”

Three hours later, the ship docked at the dock in the center of the city, and Niu Xiaoqiang's whole head was dizzy, and he even struggled to walk.

Fang Dongping helped him get off the ship, and as soon as he got off the boat, he heard someone shouting: "Who is Comrade Fang Dongping-who is Comrade Fang Dongping-"

The two turned their heads to look, only to see a young woman in a long coat and trousers looking left and right in the crowd.

Fang Dongping opened his mouth and said: "It is estimated that this woman is a liaison sent by Sanyang Tractor Factory, let's go over." ”

"Yes, Master. ”

Fang Dongping walked up to him with Niu Xiaoqiang and asked softly: "This comrade, I am Fang Dongping, you are an employee of Sanyang Tractor Factory, right?"

The young woman looked happy: "Fang Gong, I am Huang Li, I was specially sent by Sanyang Tractor Factory to pick you up, the car is parked outside the dock, you can go with me." ”

Fang Dongping smiled: "Your factory is really atmospheric, you actually sent a car to pick me up, wait a while, my apprentice just vomited all the way, and he hasn't recovered yet, let's set off again when he recovers." ”

When Huang Li heard this, she hurriedly turned her head and looked around, but she didn't understand it, and couldn't help asking, "Oh, I don't know which one is your old apprentice?"

Fang Dongping stretched out his hand and pointed at Niu Xiaoqiang: "He is." ”

Huang Li had already seen Niu Xiaoqiang just now, but she couldn't connect Niu Xiaoqiang with Fang Dongping's apprentice at all, because Niu Xiaoqiang looked too immature, and the clothes on his body were also tattered.

He ...... He's your apprentice??"

"Why, isn't it like?"

Huang Li hurriedly smiled: "It's not, I just think he's too small." ”

She said at this point and pulled out two fruit candies from her pocket: "I have candy here, eating it should relieve the symptoms of seasickness." ”

Fang Dongping didn't shirk, and handed the two candies to Niu Xiaoqiang: "You eat it quickly, the feeling of nausea will be reduced after eating." ”

As soon as Niu Xiaoqiang saw that there was candy to eat, he immediately recovered half of his spirit, and when he stuffed the fruit candy into his mouth, his spirit was raised again, and he grinned: "Master, I feel much better, let's go." ”

Huang Li led the two out of the dock and pointed to an old-fashioned Volga car on the side of the road: "This is our factory's car, let's get in the car." ”

Niu Xiaoqiang has only been in a tractor, never in a car, and after getting in the car, he kept looking left and right, with a curious look on his face.

Fang Dongping reminded: "Comrade driver, please drive a little slower, my apprentice may get motion sickness." ”

"Oh, I'll try to keep the car as steady as possible, and if you feel stuffy, you can roll down the window in the back to let in some air. ”

"Well, thank you for the reminder. ”

The wharf is only a few kilometers away from Sanyang Tractor Factory, which is not too far, and because the driver's level is very good, Niu Xiaoqiang did not get motion sickness. After getting out of the car, he turned his head to look at the old-fashioned Volga, and couldn't help but secretly envy: It would be great if I could have such a car in the future.

"Fang Gong, let's go this way. ”

Huang Li did not take the two to the workshop office, but walked in the direction of the staff canteen. Fang Dongping was quite surprised by this: "Xiao Huang, where are we going?"

Huang Li said with a smile: "Let's go to the canteen, the factory leaders have prepared a reception banquet for you, as for the work matters, you can talk while eating." ”

This is the proper meaning of the question, Chinese people like to pay attention to this set of things, Fang Dongping knew that he couldn't excuse himself, so he nodded and stopped talking.

The walls of the Sanyang Tractor Factory have cracked, leaving traces of rain washing, which looks mottled. The open space where landscape plants should have been planted is filled with all kinds of vegetables, hundreds of chickens are foraging in the grass, and a dozen chicken sheds have been built next to the courtyard wall, which looks less like a factory and more like a breeding farm.
