Chapter 245: 5 cents is too much, right? Then 1 cent
Sure enough, when General Lin heard his daughter's vivid description, he couldn't help but be moved.
He stood quietly by the window, looking at the chimney standing in the twilight, lost in thought.
"CNC machine tools... Isn't this the weapon that the military industry has always dreamed of?"
General Lin muttered to himself, his eyes sparkling.
He knew too well how weak the country's military industry was. Take tanks and armored vehicles for example, there are hundreds of parts, and not a single one of them needs repeated polishing and fine processing.
Unfortunately, these delicate tasks are all done manually. It takes several hours or even several days to make one part, not to mention how much time and effort it takes!
Coupled with the human factor, the error rate remains high, and I don’t know how much precious time and materials have been wasted...
But now, with CNC milling machines, everything will be different!
Just input the program and press the button, and even the most complex parts can be quickly and flawlessly formed under the "claws" of the machine tool!
In this way, the manufacturing cycle of weapons and equipment will be greatly shortened, and the performance and reliability of the products will be improved!
Thinking of this, General Lin could no longer suppress his inner joy and grabbed the phone:
"Hello, this is General Lin! Immediately notify the military industry and call an emergency meeting! Tell them that we have a golden opportunity and we must seize it!"
The staff officer on the other end of the phone was stunned for a moment, then hearing the excitement and eagerness in General Lin's voice, he quickly agreed.
"Yes, Commander! We will carry out your instructions as quickly as possible! No one in the military industry, from top to bottom, can slack off!"
After hanging up the phone, General Lin stared ahead for a long time, a confident smile on his face.
CNC milling machines mill not only steel, but also the future of a great country!
He wants this brand new thing to take root deeply and grow vigorously at the fastest speed!
Not only should it be spread throughout machinery manufacturing plants, but it should also be introduced into military workshops to completely revolutionize the production methods of weapons and equipment!
"Xiao Li, you are such a rare talent!"
General Lin couldn't help but sigh.
……
Time flies, and in the blink of an eye, the day of Yan Jiecheng and Qin Jingru's wedding has arrived.
It was a sunny Sunday. Early in the morning, the courtyard was bustling with people.
Everyone in the Yan family was busy making final preparations for the wedding.
Because the central courtyard has the largest area and can accommodate more guests, the Yan family decided to hold the wedding banquet here.
He Yuzhu and his two apprentices were building a few temporary stoves in a corner of the yard.
The three of them were discussing the recipe one after another and handling the ingredients skillfully. The aroma of the food soon filled the air, making people drool.
In the front of the yard, Yan Bugui found a table, covered it with a brand new red tablecloth, and sat there upright, waiting to receive the gifts.
A rare smile appeared on his harsh old face, but his eyes were shifty and he kept glancing towards the door, afraid of missing any guests.
Normally, when the host holds a wedding, he should not sit at the front desk to receive gifts in person.
After all, those who come are relatives and friends, and how much they give depends on their personal intentions. If the host forces them, it would seem ungenerous.
But Yan Bugui, the old man who was so picky, was afraid that he would not receive the gift money, so he personally took charge of everything. Who said he was the father of the groom?
As time went by, more and more guests came to the banquet.
Everyone was wearing clothes of different styles, with festive smiles on their faces, and walked into the yard talking and laughing.
Everywhere he went, he couldn't help but praise the place: "Wow, the Yan family is so impressive today, the table is set like a state banquet!"
"Yes, the bride and groom are really a perfect match made in heaven!"
Hearing these auspicious words, everyone in the Yan family was delighted. Even Yan Bugui's bitter face was painted with a bit of smugness.
In this lively atmosphere, the most eye-catching young talent in the courtyard, Li Yang, walked out of his residence in casual clothes.
I saw him carrying a fishing rod on his shoulder and a small bucket in his hand. He walked briskly and looked leisurely.
"This kid, is he not planning to attend the wedding banquet here?" someone asked doubtfully.
He had already made an appointment with Lin Xiaoxiao to go fishing today, and he was rushing to keep the appointment!
So naturally I'm not going to eat it.
Li Yang did not stay in the yard for long, but walked straight to Yan Bugui.
He took out a fifty-cent note from his pocket slowly, put it gently on the table, and said calmly, "Uncle, this is a gift to Yan Jiecheng. Write it down as Li Yang's fifty-cent note."
"That's all?" Yan Bugui widened his eyes, unable to believe his ears.
A deputy section chief in a factory only gets fifty cents! Not even as much as others!
Yan Bugui suddenly felt a little embarrassed and said awkwardly: "Deputy Section Chief Li, this is too little, isn't it? We are neighbors after all, old neighbors, we should at least show some appreciation..."
Hearing this, Li Yang slowly raised his head and glanced at Yan Bugui with a sharp gaze.
Under that sharp look, Yan Bugui suddenly felt guilty and subconsciously avoided his gaze.
With a "pop" sound, Li Yang silently put the fifty cents back, took out a ten-cent coin from his pocket and put it on the table.
"I'm sorry, Third Uncle." Li Yang's voice was still unhurried, but it revealed an unquestionable tone.
"I am poor, so I can only spare 1 cent to show my appreciation. Please just remember it, Li Yang, 1 cent."
After saying this, he strode out of the yard without looking back.
Yan Bugui was left alone there, furious, but he didn't dare to get angry.
"What a damn devil!" Yan Bugui cursed with gritted teeth, but due to Li Yang's identity, he did not dare to offend him openly.
He had no choice but to put the dime into the account book in dismay and made a deep stroke behind Li Yang's name.
Just when Yan Bugui was annoyed by Li Yang's stinginess, Liu Haizhong and his family came over with smiles.
"Congratulations, Old Yan! Today is a happy day. Our Liu family hasn't prepared any gifts. Please keep this fifty cents as a token of our appreciation." Liu Haizhong said cheerfully and handed over the fifty cents in his hand.
"That's it?" Yan Bugui's face became even uglier.
The Liu family has the largest population in the yard. Liu Haizhong alone has three children, plus Liu Guangqi and his wife, making a family of six.
For so many people, only fifty cents is too little, isn't it?
"Old Liu, you're too stingy, aren't you?" Yan Bugui couldn't help complaining, "There are so many people in your family, and you need a lot of food and drink, but you only give me 50 cents. I'm afraid it's not enough to fill the gaps in our stomachs, right?"
