It's just dawn.
The lights came on in the office of the stationmaster of Zhaojiagou Coal Washing Station.
A dozen coal dispatchers stood in the office and were lectured by the station manager.
Director Zhou Lie of the coal washing station put on a straight face and said in a loud voice: "It is almost the end of the year, and there is insufficient coal in the mine, so a large number of people will come to our coal washing station to buy coal.
I hope you can treat those ordinary people with the same enthusiasm you treat your own comrades.
If anyone dares to ask for the card privately, don’t blame me, Old Zhou, for being unkind!
I won’t say any more unnecessary words.
Think about the former webmaster Yang and Liu Chusheng!
"The meeting is dismissed!"
The coal dispatchers finished the meeting and left the office. Looking at the darkness outside, they felt a little depressed.
Being a coal dispatcher in a coal washing plant is a very popular job. The job is easy and you can get some benefits.
In the past, this job was so crowded that only relatives of the leader had to give small gifts to be selected.
However, this situation fundamentally changed more than a month ago.
Former dispatcher Liu Chusheng was blind and deliberately made things difficult for a young train driver, hoping to earn a few more packs of cigarettes.
Who would have thought that the train driver had a great background and had just made great contributions to the mine.
The deputy chief of the security department of Linxi Mine took Liu Chusheng away that day.
After some interrogation, Station Commander Yang was also implicated and was dismissed from his post.
Zhou Lie was urgently transferred to the position of director of Zhaojiagou Coal Washing Station.
This person is a veteran with a serious style of work. He just arrived at the coal washing station and carried out a major overhaul of the station.
A large number of dispatchers with bad records were dismissed.
Several of those with serious circumstances and criminal facts were transferred to the Linxi Mine Security Section.
Subsequently, Zhou Lie formulated a series of rules and regulations.
Current dispatchers need to start work at 5:30 in the morning to fully serve customers who purchase coal.
Life can't be described as difficult.
As a result, several dispatchers jointly reported the situation to the mine, but they were severely reprimanded.
Duan Chang said, "If you can do it, do it. If you can't, get out!"
Even though these dispatchers are complaining and complaining that they can't survive, not even one of them has resigned.
Because they know that compared with the miners working in the coal mines, their lives are like those of ancient rich people.
Half past eight in the morning.
The sun had just risen, and villagers who came to buy coal appeared at the door of the coal washing point.
Station manager Zhou Lie considered that the weather was too cold, so he asked the station staff to use cinders to light a fire in the yard and invited the villagers to come and warm themselves up.
The villagers had never received such a warm reception, and they were all a little surprised. Some even felt scared and hid behind them.
The last time they came to the coal washing plant to buy coal, they were reprimanded. The fat dispatcher was very abusive.
Why are there so many changes now?
Just when stationmaster Zhou Lie was about to explain, a jeep with a mining license plate came running towards him.
The jeep stopped.
A gay man in uniform jumped down and shouted to Zhou Lie: "Old Zhou, go home quickly, take the piece of tiger meat I gave you to my house, and tell your brothers and sisters that there is someone coming to the capital at noon today. distinguished guest!"

The rising sun leaps over the horizon.
The early morning glow is like a colorful picture, filling the sky.
Li Aiguo has seen the sunrise countless times in the driver's building.
Every time I still feel beautiful.
The appearance of the glow represents the arrival of a new day.
It represents that the weak rabbit is somewhat stronger.
At this time Liu Qingquan also woke up.
He changed shifts with the stoker Lao Zheng and asked Lao Zheng to take a nap.
"Driver Li, how long will it take for us to arrive at Linxi Mine?"
"There will be no delays on the way. We will arrive at ten o'clock in the morning."
The biggest advantage of being a train driver is that you can leave the driving seat at any time.
Li Aiguo withdrew his head from the window and put several iron kidney lunch boxes on the stove, ready to heat them up.
When he saw Professor Kirov huddled next to the stove in a big fur coat, he couldn't help but shook his head with a wry smile.
This old professor is also very hardworking.
In order to record the data, I persisted for more than ten hours.
In the end, I couldn't bear it anymore, so I just found a place to sleep for a while.
It was hot above the stove, and a fragrant smell soon emerged from the lunch box.
Engineer Zheng, who had been squatting next to the furnace, couldn't help but swallow his saliva.
He raised his hand and said timidly: "Li, Driver Li, will you have my breakfast later?"
The rice in the lunch box was now lumped together. Li Aiguo picked up the chopsticks to stir and asked, "Have you recorded all the data I asked you to record?"
"Write it down, make sure there are no mistakes." Rubbing his red eyes, Zheng Gong said a little depressed.
Last night, because Professor Kirov was resting and someone needed to stay at his post to record data, the damn train driver ordered him not to sleep.
Why should he, a dignified fifth-level engineer, obey the orders of a small train driver? !
Of course Engineer Zheng refused and turned around to sleep in the tender.
Just one word from Li Aiguo made him stop in his tracks.
"Did you bring a lunch box?"
Only then did Mr. Zheng remember that the train was not a car. It could not stop at will and could not get off to buy food in the middle.
People are like iron, and food is like steel. When he thought of being hungry for more than a day, just for the sake of two black men, Gong Zheng gave in instantly.
The sound of the two talking also woke up Professor Kirov.
"Dear Driver Li, is it already dawn? You haven't slept all night, and you are still so energetic?"
Professor Kirov stood up, rubbed his eyes, and put on his leather coat. He felt a little strange when he saw that Li Aiguo was still in high spirits.
By this time the food was already hot, Li Aiguo handed an iron waist lunch box to Professor Kirov and explained: "Brother, you also know that our mysterious East always has all kinds of magical medicinal wines.
After drinking it, my waist does not hurt and my legs do not hurt, and I can climb the fifth floor in one breath without any difficulty.
Well, it seems to be a conspiracy. In short, the medicinal wine can strengthen the body and improve concentration. "
"Pafitin? Nikolayev gas?"
Professor Kirov was shocked: "Dear Driver Li, you are a good young man. You must take care of your body and never take shortcuts!"
During the war, the fighting was tense. In order to keep the soldiers in a state of excitement for a long time, Lao De ordered research chemists to study related drugs.
Many famous old German chemists in the field of chemistry, all of whom are real Breaking Bad actors, soon created a drug called Parfaitin.
This thing can be said to be the first generation of artificial stimulants, and it is extremely effective.
At that time, there was a slogan called "The vitality of the old German soldiers depends entirely on Pervitin."
Lao Maozi was shocked at first when he saw the old German soldiers not hiding from bullets. Are they so crazy? !
After figuring out the real reason, Lao Maozi came up with an even more awesome thing, which is Nikolayev gas.
It is said that Nikolayev gas can put the inhaler in an extremely excited state, allowing them to stay energetic every day even if they do not sleep.
Lao Maozi plans to use this gas to transform one super force after another that does not need to sleep and can maintain high morale.
They achieved their goals and failed to achieve their goals.
Experimental subjects who have inhaled Nikolayev's gas can indeed stay awake for several days and nights.
But after the effects of the medicine wore off, their spirits collapsed.
Lao Maozi only harvested dozens of schizophrenia patients.
Li Aiguo said: "No, no, no, this medicinal wine is purely natural!"
"Your oriental herbal medicines are always so mysterious." Professor Kirov admired.
Li Aiguo said angrily: "When I return to the capital, I will give you some to ensure that you can stay active in your research."
"That's a great feeling!" Professor Kirov said happily.
Li Aiguo did not deceive Professor Kirov.
Ling Gui showed that the biggest effect of wine is actually to improve the physical quality of the human body. As for being good for men, it is actually just a side effect of it.
Just like Viagra in later generations, it was originally a drug to treat heart disease. The increased strength and hardness are just side effects.
Professor Kirov has a high academic level and better luck in love affairs.
After the death of his wife, he actually married his own student, that old girl, who was only in her thirties this year.
As the saying goes, a woman in her thirties is like a tiger, sitting on the ground and sucking up dirt.
Even the strong man Wu Song had to drink three bowls of wine before going to Jingyanggang to fight a tiger. Without some auxiliary means, could Kirov defeat a tiger?
Therefore, Linggui Zhanshi Wine is very suitable for Professor Kirov in terms of work and life.
This can be considered Li Aiguo’s gratitude to him.
Well, it is Li Aiguo's nature to repay kindness.
Professor Kirov didn't know that he had been arranged well by Li Aiguo, so he had already picked up the record book and started checking it.
Woo woo woo.
The train ran along the railway track for nearly two hours and finally arrived at Linxi Mine.
However, Li Aiguo received a notice from the Linxi Mine Coal Mine Dispatching Office at the crossing station that the coal train needed to load clean coal at the Zhaojiagou Coal Washing Station.
"It seems that we and Zhaojiagou are really destined."
The switchman in front changed the branch road, and Li Aiguo drove the train to the Zhaojiagou coal washing station.
After the train stopped, Li Aiguo did not get off immediately.
Instead, he worked with Professor Kirov to disassemble the automatic fuel ignition equipment with tools, and with the cooperation of a group of skilled workers, conducted a comprehensive inspection of the equipment.
“There is nothing wrong with the equipment!”
Professor Kirov breathed a sigh of relief and gave Li Aiguo a thumbs up: "Dear Driver Li, half of our great cause has been completed."
A great cause. That seems to be correct!
At this time, Zhou Lie, the director of the coal washing station, was already waiting. He looked at Section Chief Wu and said, "Old Wu, the train has stopped. Where is the driver Li you are talking about?"
"Maybe he's doing something weird again. Driver Li built the dump train last time." Section Chief Wu scratched his head.
He strode to the front of the car and shouted several times at the top.
When Li Aiguo heard the shouting, he was stunned for a moment, then opened the car door and ran out.
When he saw the military section chief standing below, Li Aiguo felt ecstatic, jumped off the locomotive, rushed over and hugged him heavily.
After the last separation, the two did not lose contact.
Section Chief Wu often mails some mountain products to the capital, while Li Aiguo mails some local specialties from the capital.
Especially the cakes from Daoxiang Village, which cost more than ten kilograms in the mail.
The wife of the chief of the martial arts department is ninety-five years old and has lost all her teeth. She likes to eat soft drinks and snacks.
"These are the masters of our workshop."
"This is Professor Kirov, an old expert."
After the two greeted each other, Li Aiguo introduced everyone behind him.
When he saw Lao Maozi, the military section chief's eyes widened in shock.
He knew very well that these experts had important responsibilities and would never come to Linxi Mine to transport coal.
The Wu Section Chief turned around and looked at Station Commander Zhou with a proud look, his meaning was obvious: "I'm not wrong, my brother has come up with something good again."
The task was tight, so Li Aiguo handed the coal dispatch book to stationmaster Zhou: "Sorry to trouble you, comrade stationmaster."
"No trouble. In fact, I should thank you. If you hadn't discovered Liu Chusheng's violation last time, our coal washing station might still be scolded by the people!"
Upon hearing this, Professor Kirov, who was observing the coal washing station, asked curiously: "Why, does Driver Li also care about your coal washing station?"
Stationmaster Zhou did not answer directly, but looked at Section Chief Wu.
Some things are scandals of one's own family, and if foreign friends know about them, they may cause trouble.
"It's okay. If you did something wrong, don't be afraid of others knowing. Besides, didn't we make it right?"
After getting the consent of Chief Wu, Station Commander Zhou told Professor Kirov everything about what happened a while ago.
After Professor Kirov listened, he looked at Li Aiguo with admiration.
Sure enough, he was right about this guy.
While in the tavern, he knew that this train driver was the same type of person as him, a true warrior.
After learning about the coal washing plant, he was even more certain of this.
Only with such people can great international undertakings be successful!
Perhaps the technical details related to PRG-2 can also be handed over to him.
Li Aiguo did not expect that an unrelated matter could give Professor Kirov so many ideas.
He is now going through the coal loading procedures.
Now the coal washing plant has been completely renovated. The old rules have long since disappeared and the procedures have gone through smoothly.
After the formalities were completed, the three loaders began loading coal under the command of the dispatcher.
Section Chief Wu looked at Li Aiguo and said, "Driver Li, by the time the coal is loaded, it's already afternoon. I asked your sister-in-law to prepare meals at home. Come on, let's eat at home."
Li Aiguo and Section Chief Wu are old friends, so they will naturally not refuse. It’s just that he brought so many people with him this time.
"It's okay. I asked Lao Zhou to prepare fifty kilograms of tiger meat. Even if there are twice as many people, there will be enough food!"
Tiger meat. Good guy, we came to this world and just ate bear paws, and then we eat tiger meat. It’s too much punishment.
Li Aiguo couldn't help but widen his eyes.
Professor Kirov's green eyes turned greener when he heard there was tiger meat.
"I have eaten several tigers at the research institute in Siberia, but I have never tasted what the tigers here taste like."
Li Aiguo: "."
I bet everyone doesn’t regard tigers as protected animals!
What, there is no wildlife protection law in these days.
Furthermore, the tiger disaster is serious in mountain villages, and the villagers have been suffering from tigers for a long time.
That's okay.
On the way to Lao Wu's house, Li Aiguo also figured out the origin of this piece of tiger meat.
As he expected, there is a mountain range called Tianzi Mountain more than 200 kilometers away from Linxi Mine, and Erdianzi Village is located at the foot of the mountain.
There are tigers in the mountains. Tigers often come into the village at night and steal the chickens, ducks, pigs, and dogs raised in the village. This makes the chickens and dogs in Erdianzi Village restless, and the people are panicked, and their expressions change when they talk about tigers.
Lao Wu's brother-in-law's hometown is in Erdianzi Village. By chance, Lao Wu learned about this.
At that time, he was worrying about helping Li Aiguo get tiger whip.
The security department and militia team of Linxi Mine also needed training, so they sent someone to contact the village chief of Erdianzi Village.
When the village chief heard that someone was willing to go to the mountains to hunt tigers, he readily agreed.
What the villagers didn't expect was that people like Lao Wu actually carried mortars.
The King of the Deep Forest was helpless in the face of modern weapons. The training was a great success, and the Linxi Security Department successfully harvested two tigers.
Each head weighed five to six hundred kilograms. One was distributed to the villagers, and the other was brought back. After being slaughtered, it was distributed to the comrades participating in the training.
"So, by eating this tiger, we are doing something good for the people!"
Li Aiguo thought like this and felt that the tiger meat in his mouth became more fragrant.
After the meal, the old military general Li Aiguo was pulled into the room and gave him a paper bag.
Inside the paper bag were two tiger whips.
Li Aiguo also gave a wine bottle to Lao Wu, which contained the spirit turtle display wine.
The two looked at each other and smiled, and there was no need for words between brothers.
Although tiger hunting is not prohibited these days, there are only a handful of times where tiger meat can be eaten. When the technical workers in the locomotive depot returned to the coal washing station, they were full of praise for today's tiger feast.
Li Aiguo was not very interested. The tiger meat tasted very woody and old. It tasted like dried meat, and the taste was bitter and pungent.
If Lao Wu's little wife from Sichuan Province hadn't added a lot of chili peppers, the smell would have been unpalatable.
It seems that this kind of wild animal can only be eaten fresh.
If we really want to use it as meat, it has to be the cattle, sheep, and chickens that we have cultivated for thousands of years.
However, I heard from Lao Ji that the taste of lion meat is better, it is chewy and chewy, and it also tastes a little fresh from the grassland.
If you have the chance, you still have to try it.
At this time, the train was already loaded with coal, still loaded with 2,000 tons, and it was operating at a standard overload rate.
Li Aiguo shook hands with Lao Wu and said goodbye before returning to the driver's building.
Engineer Zheng was munching on the black cornstarch in his arms. There was no tea, so he choked and stretched his neck.
I heard that Li Aiguo and the others just had a tiger feast, and their intestines were filled with regret.
If he had not lost his temper and chosen to cooperate with the Qianmen Locomotive Depot, not only would he have made great achievements, but he would also have been able to eat tiger meat.
Regret!
"Driver Li, you, you are so awesome."
Engineer Zheng wanted to join in, but Li Aiguo ignored him and blew the whistle and started the train.
"Technicians are in place and ready to record data."
The train set off again, the technicians were in place, and the driver's building was busy again.
One day later.
When the train returned to the Qianmen locomotive depot with black smoke, Section Chief Xing and Deputy Director Zhou, who had been waiting at the station, breathed a sigh of relief at the same time.
The two of them looked at each other and saw happiness in each other's eyes.
After Professor Kirov boarded the experimental train, Deputy Director Zhou reported the situation to the relevant units in accordance with regulations.
The relevant units were shocked when they heard the news and yelled at Deputy Director Zhou on the phone.
Deputy Director Zhou could not imagine what would happen if there was a driving problem and Professor Kirov lost a hair.
The train stopped slowly, and Li Aiguo took Professor Kirov out of the train.
Duan Chang Xing and Deputy Factory Director Zhou both rushed forward.
Li Aiguo saluted Duan Chang Xing: "Chief Duan, I'm glad you have fulfilled your mission!"
"Okay, okay!" Tears overflowed from the corners of the old section leader's eyes.
After studying the data, Professor Kirov announced on the spot: "The automatic fuel ignition equipment is operating normally. It perfectly solves the problem of insufficient combustion in the furnace and can be installed on the furnace as a regular accessory."
Authoritative speeches are always recognized by people.
There was a burst of cheers at the scene, especially the train drivers who shouted loudly, expressing their excitement.
From now on, you no longer have to worry about falling asleep unknowingly while driving.
Engineer Zheng was hiding at the door of the car, not daring to get close to the crowd, but he was still noticed by Deputy Director Zhou and gave him a fierce look.
This was originally a good opportunity for our Dalian factory, but it was all wasted by this guy.
Deputy Factory Director Zhou took a deep breath, straightened his collar, walked up to Duan Chang Xing and said, "Old Xing, are you free tonight? On behalf of the Dalian Factory, I would like to treat you to a meal."
"Dalian Factory invites you to dinner."
Duan Chang Xing was in the excitement. It took him a moment to realize that he was trying to develop an automatic fuel ignition device.
He also knew that the automatic fuel ignition equipment was too important. With a small maintenance section, it was impossible to eat this big piece of steamed buns.
The Dalian factory is the largest train manufacturer in China. It has the technology, equipment and skilled workers, making it suitable for the production of automatic fuel ignition equipment.
It's just that if you want to take such a good thing home for production, you will have to draw some blood.
"In the evening," Duan Chang Xing muttered, "Lao Bai from Sifang Factory arrived in the capital this afternoon and asked me to receive him by name. Tell me, what an unfortunate thing it is!"
The news must have spread too quickly. Deputy Director Zhou felt that the old section leader was too cunning.
He took a deep breath and said with a smile: "The last dump truck has already made Sifang Factory full, and our Dalian Factory is still hungry! Lao Xing, don't worry, we will not lose money to your locomotive depot."
"Let's go to the office and talk."
As the deputy director of the Dalian factory, Deputy Director Zhou is one level higher than Duan Chang Xing, but at this time he is as enthusiastic as his own brother.
Duan Chang Xing felt as happy as if he had eaten an old popsicle during the holidays.
He turned to look at Li Aiguo, who was surrounded by the crowd, and felt proud in his heart. The locomotive depot at the front door had picked up a big treasure!
After the experimental train, the leaders were busy fighting for benefits and the train drivers were busy celebrating.
Professors Li Aiguo and Kirov were at work, making subtle adjustments to the automatic fuel ignition equipment based on driving data.
After two hours of hard work, Professor Kirov put down his pen and said with a smile: "Dear Driver Li, perfect! This is the perfect equipment in my mind!"
"Professor, thank you for your help." Li Aiguo said sincerely.
Although the drawings provided by the system are perfect enough, they are not localized enough. Professor Kirov has rich experience and his opinions often hit the mark.
"Brother, you are right, I am a member of the project team!" Professor Kirov laughed twice. (End of chapter)
