Under the dim light, Cao Shan stared at the vernier caliper in his hand, seemingly completely integrated into the world of work, and everything around him seemed not to exist in his world.
There was no expression on his face, but a deep persistence could be seen in his eyes.
When the vernier caliper touches the workpiece, it makes a weak but firm sound.
This single sound makes people feel extremely peaceful and peaceful.
Li Weidong did not disturb him, held his arms in his arms, and stared at him silently.
It is now almost seven o'clock in the evening, and Cao Shan is still working. It is not an exaggeration to describe him as forgetting about food and sleep.
It is precisely because of these masters who work tirelessly and forget about food and sleep that Hua Xia can quickly grow from a weak rabbit to a big muscled rabbit.
And on the northern battlefield, he threw a powerful punch, winning decades of peaceful development for future generations.
For this kind of master, Li Weidong is full of admiration from the bottom of his heart.
The night is quiet.
The night was dark.
Cao Shan records data while testing the workpiece.
He was busy for a while and seemed to have completed the test work. He picked up a file and prepared to change the size of the workpiece.
"Ouch. Hiss."
The file fell from his hand.
Li Weidong saw blood pouring from Cao Shan's palm, and quickly stepped forward and held Cao Shan's arm.
"Master Cao, are you okay?"
"It's okay." Cao Shan held back the pain and stretched out his palm. There was a deep wound on his palm. The blood slowly flowed along the fingers and dripped on the ground drop by drop.
Cao Shan looked at the wound and smiled bitterly: "As I get older, I have forgotten the essence of how to use a file that my master taught me back then."
"What's the point?" Li Weidong then asked.
Cao Shan was silent for a moment, and then uttered a sentence with some embarrassment: "You cannot grasp the blade of the file with your hands."
Li Weidong: "."
The blade of the file was extremely sharp. Cao Shan's wound was 2 centimeters deep, and a simple bandage could no longer stop the bleeding.
Fortunately, there is a medical office in the machinery factory, but I don't know if the doctor is off work at this point.
If he got off work, he would have to drive a jeep to take Cao Shan to the hospital in the city.
Li Weidong helped Cao Shan to the infirmary located northeast of the machinery factory with anxiety.
Seeing the orange lights on in the infirmary, Li Weidong was immediately relieved.
"Master Cao, just hold on, we'll be there soon."
Li Weidong quickened his pace and suddenly saw a figure flashing past the window.
The figure was relatively plump, about the size of two adults. In the machinery factory, only Deputy Director Huang had such an outstanding figure.
Li Weidong frowned vaguely, walked to the door of the infirmary, and knocked on the door.
"Is there a doctor here?"
"Who!"
A crisp voice came from inside.
The door opened gently, and a young female doctor wearing a white robe came out.
With the help of the faint light, she saw blood dripping from Cao Shan's palm, and her expression became nervous: "Quickly, help him into the house."
Entering the room, the female doctor asked Cao Shan to open his palm, look at the wound solemnly, and ask a few questions about the cause of the injury.
When she heard it was a file, the female doctor relaxed.
Seeing Li Weidong's strange expression, he explained with a cold face: "Mechanics generally don't pay attention to personal hygiene. The tools are covered with oil stains, and most of them are rusty. Those things can easily breed bacteria. Once the skin is scratched, It can easily cause tetanus.”
"Can't tetanus vaccine be injected here?" Li Weidong frowned. He remembered that in this era, tetanus vaccine could already be manufactured in China.
Oh, this worker knows a lot.
The female doctor took a deep look at Li Weidong and said with a cold face: "The production of tetanus vaccine is very small. Even the big hospitals in the city don't have it, let alone our clinic."
As she spoke, the female doctor began to get busy.
She first cleaned Cao Shan's palms with alcohol and wrapped his palms with gauze.
Then he asked Cao Shan to lie down on the stool, took out a glass syringe, and gave Cao Shan a butt injection.
At this time, Li Weidong almost looked at the female doctor carefully.
The female doctor has an oval face, tall figure, delicate facial features, and pure temperament.
And as he bends his body, graceful curves appear faintly on his white coat.
Based on Li Weidong's many years of experience, it is estimated that there will be no problem in feeding a child for more than 8,000 days.
Her looks are even better than Liang Ladi's, and she can be regarded as the face person in the machinery factory.
The only flaw is the lack of affinity.
Ever since Li Weidong entered the house, he had never seen her smile. Her face was as cold as ice, and her words were distant from her.
All she had to do was hang a sign on her chest that read: Iceberg Beauty, please stay away.
Li Weidong has seen many such white swans.
They always think that men are coveting their beauty and take active defensive measures to keep those men away.
But I don’t know that there is another kind of man in this world called a gangster.
Therefore, most of the endings of the white swan are not very good.
At this time, after Cao Shan got a shot, he stood up and put on his pants.
He looked at the palms wrapped into rice dumplings and said worriedly: "Dr. Ding Qiunan, how can I still work in this condition? Can you help me untie the gauze?"
"If you don't want to die, just untie it and I won't stop you." The female doctor replied coldly.
Ding Qiunan.
Li Weidong was in a trance when he heard the name.
This female doctor turned out to be Ding Qiunan.
Alas, he was only worried about Cao Shan's injury, and he actually forgot about the heroine in "People Are Iron, Food Is Steel".
In the original work, Ding Qiunan was unable to go to university due to his poor background, so he could only stay in the machinery factory as a junior doctor.
She is proud by nature and does not hesitate to show off to her suitors.
In the end, he was insulted by the cattle thief Cui Dake while he was drunk.
After Cui Dake possessed Ding Qiunan in a way that ordinary men could not use, he also shattered her arrogance.
From then on, Ding Qiunan gradually began to go dark, and worked together with Cui Dake.
certainly.
In this world, since Cui Dake has been easily taken care of by Li Weidong, Ding Qiunan is still the flawless white swan.
Looking at the cold Ding Qiunan, Li Weidong always felt that the girl owed him a thank you.
but.
But there was no way to bring it up.
You can't tell Ding Qiunan directly that the man who will insult you later has been taken care of by me. I am your savior, right?
In that case, according to Ding Qiunan's temperament, Li Weidong has only one ending.
That means the syringe in her hand stabbed her butt hard.
The most humiliating thing in the world is saving someone else's life and not being able to speak out about it.
Okay, let’s show off our style once.
Cao Shan blushed and his neck was thick from the rebuke, but in the end he didn't dare to take off the gauze.
Seeing that it was getting late, Li Weidong smiled and said, "Comrade Ding Qiunan, it's getting late. We're going back first. You should get off work early and rest."
"It's easy to go, I won't send you away." Ding Qiunan sat back at the table, picked up a math textbook and started reading.
Li Weidong smiled bitterly and shook his head. She is really an iceberg beauty.
After leaving the infirmary, Li Weidong looked up at the stars in the sky and said with a smile: "Old Cao, you can't ride a bicycle like this, shall I take you back?"
"This, this is so embarrassing. You sent me to the infirmary today, which is enough trouble for you." Cao Shan was a little embarrassed.
"It's okay. I'm staying in a guest house anyway, so it's not interesting to be alone at night."
Li Weidong took Cao Shan's arm, came to the parking lot, and without any explanation, put him into the jeep.
The Caoshan family lived in a large courtyard seven or eight miles away from the machinery factory.
By the time Li Weidong returned to the guest house, it was already after eight o'clock in the evening.
The front desk clerk of the guest house had long since fallen asleep in the duty room next to her.
He snored loudly from time to time.
Li Weidong didn't disturb her, and tiptoed to the second floor, just about to open the door.
A figure flashed behind him, Li Weidong's hair stood on end, and he punched with his backhand.
"Big brother, it's me, me!"
Liang Ladi's face turned livid with fright, and she subconsciously raised her hands.
Fortunately, Li Weidong reacted quickly, and his fist brushed against Liang Ladi's chest.
Withdrawing his fist, Li Weidong was speechless. He took out the key, opened the door, and reached out to grab Liang Ladi into the room.
"Why are you here? Last night you said you were going to rest today."
Seemingly aware that Li Weidong was a little angry, Liang Ladi picked up the thermos, poured a cup of enamel hot tea, and held it in both hands before bringing it to Li Weidong.
"Brother, don't be angry. Sister, I miss you." Seeing that Li Weidong did not pick up the enamel jar, Liang Ladi put the enamel jar on the table.
She walked up to Li Weidong, and rubbed the button on her chest against the tip of Li Weidong's nose.
"Brother, you may have misunderstood. I'm not here for that matter today."
Li Weidong felt a little itchy on the tip of his nose, and his mood improved as he smelled the good smell.
He took a cigarette and lit it, took a puff, and said with a flat mouth: "It's not about that, what is it?"
"Brother, this is to report the problem to the ministry." Liang Ladi sat down on the table and became serious: "We have contacted seventy or eighty workers, and now we are short of a leader. I think brother You are the most suitable to be the leader, what do you think?"
"How is it? Not so good!"
"No, big brother, look, you know the situation in our factory, you are also connected in the ministries and commissions, and you are very capable!"
"Don't put your hat on me, I'm pretty capable." Li Weidong said angrily.
He finally understood that Liang Ladi wanted to use him as a gunman!
"I am an employee of a steel rolling mill and have nothing to do with your machinery factory."
"No, big brother, you can't be a good person and do it to the end." Liang Ladi became anxious. She originally thought that Li Weidong was a warm-hearted person, so she took the initiative to come to her door.
Li Weidong stood up and laughed: "Comrade Liang Ladi, how do you see that I am a good person?"
Liang Ladi was speechless for a moment.
Li Weidong walked up to her, reached out and pinched her chin: "Our relationship is just a ten-pound food stamp. Other than that, there is no other relationship."
This is simply ruthless!
Liang Ladi said: "Brother, I originally thought"
"Don't think to yourself that it won't work." Li Weidong pointed to the door and said, "I'm not free tonight. If you want food stamps in the future, you have to make an appointment in advance."
"Why is it so fierce?"
Liang Ladi was driven out, muttering in her mouth.
"This man is really difficult to deal with. I originally thought that the two of them had that kind of relationship. No matter what happened, he would always have to help."
"I didn't expect that he would see through it before I could show my true principles."
"If Li Weidong doesn't come forward, we will lack a heavyweight leader."
"We can't trust Liu Feng."
"We can only ask Master Cao to take action."
Liang Ladi thought about this and sighed deeply.
Those factory leaders are not easy to deal with, and this trip will definitely cause huge waves.
If you are not careful, you will be shattered into pieces.
If it wasn't for the fact that she had no other choice, she really wouldn't want to let Master Cao take the risk.
In front of the window on the second floor, Li Weidong silently watched Liang Ladi's shadow disappearing into the darkness, his face expressionless.
In the next two days, Li Weidong clearly felt that the atmosphere in the machinery factory was getting more and more tense.
Factory Director Liu Feng no longer appeared at the report meeting, and most of the factory leaders were also absent.
Li Weidong didn't care.
Taking advantage of the break in giving reports, he collaborated with Yu Haitang to write several press releases and submitted them to major newspapers in the capital.
Unfortunately, there has been no reply.
Li Weidong is not in a hurry. In this era, newspapers in the capital receive tens of thousands of submissions from all over the country every day.
If you don’t have access to an editor, it would be extremely difficult to publish an article.
Li Weidong's favorite thing to do in his spare time is to discuss his machine repair experience with Cao Cao.
Although he has read a lot of books on repair, with the blessing of thousands of times of experience, his theoretical knowledge is comparable to that of a ninth-level mechanic.
but.
A lifetime of experience accumulated by an old ninth-level worker cannot be obtained from books.
Cao Gong's mood seemed to have become much worse since he was injured.
However, in the face of Li Weidong's enthusiastic consultation, he still gave positive opinions.
Liang Ladi seems to be very busy and often disappears. She is rarely seen in the workshop, let alone exchanging meal tickets.
Time, like a man over forty, flies faster day by day.
One day at noon, Li Weidong came to the small canteen of the machinery factory to eat as usual, carrying his lunch box.
In recent times, because he has appeared enough times and often hangs out with the drivers in the machinery factory, the employees of the machinery factory seem to regard him as a comrade in the factory.
When I see him, I always greet him warmly.
"Director Li, are you here for dinner in person?"
Li Weidong: "."
Enter the cafeteria and stand at the end of the long queue.
He raised his head and realized that it was Ding Qiunan standing in front of him.
Ding Qiunan was still wearing a white coat and a ponytail as he was that night.
When the workers saw Ding Qiunan, they all looked frightened.
Ding Qiunan has a bad habit of being particularly ruthless when giving injections to workers who dare to tease her in person.
You can't help but get sick, right?
Of course, there are also those who are obsessed with sex.
For example, Nan Yi, the chef in the cafeteria.
