Siheyuan: Heavy Industry Revitalizes the Country

"Comrade, this is a confidential unit. Please show us your letter of introduction and work permit."

Two young soldiers were holding the Type 65 rifle designed by Fang Xiang.

He looked at Fang Xiang who was sitting in the passenger seat with a vigilant look.

At this time, Fang Xiang was already in Feng County, Shaanxi Province. The purpose of this trip was the 067 base.

“Comrade, your formalities.

According to the base's regulations, your driver cannot enter and needs to take our vehicle."

After carefully checking Fang Xiang's documents, the two soldiers saluted and returned the documents to Fang Xiang.

"Then I'll take you here. When you need to go back or need a car again, just call me."

The driver who was taking Fang Xiang saw this and realized that this was not a place he could enter, so he said something straightforward.

"Okay, I'll get the luggage."

Fang Xiang nodded, opened the car door, and took the luggage out of the car.

"Comrade, the luggage needs to be checked as well."

A soldier who looked like an officer came over.

Looking at Fang Xiang's huge suitcase, he frowned.

"no problem."

Fang Xiang placed the large suitcase on the flat ground in front of the post and opened it.

"this......"

The officer was stunned.

In addition to two sets of clothes, the suitcase was filled with various food.

Yes, Mr. Hu reminded him on the phone to bring more food.

The reason is that the conditions at this base are too harsh.

If Fang wants to stay for a short time and cannot finish the food himself, he can share it with others.

As a person who listens to advice, Fang Xiang naturally bought a lot of food in advance.

In addition, the food that had been stored in the space was also put into the suitcase.

Fortunately, it is winter now and it is still very cold, so there is no need to worry about it going bad.

"Gurgle...we need to check..."

The officer struggled to move his eyes away from the suitcase and looked at Fang Xiang.

Fang Xiang didn't care and made a gesture of invitation.

The expressions of the two young soldiers next to them were the same as the officers.

Eyes widened.

Fang Xiang watched them carefully inspect the food and sighed in his heart.

I knew it was tough here, but I didn't expect it to be this exaggerated.

He took a train directly to Baoji, and then the local government sent a car to take him here.

In his previous life, Fang Xiang had been to Shaanxi Province, but he had only been to Chang'an.

After experiencing the miserable experience of Dangdang being different and losing money in new ways, I stayed there for just two days and left with a bad review.

But now, as soon as I got off the train, I saw that the conditions here are even worse than those in Luoyi.

It took us several hours in a jeep to slowly reach this unknown ravine.

Yes, it rubbed against me.

There is no cement or asphalt road along this road.

All of them are bumpy dirt roads.

Moreover, because it is in the Qinling Mountains, it has not been replanted in later generations and is bare everywhere.

The road conditions were so bad that Fang wanted to stop the car several times to vomit.

Soon, the suitcases were checked and a jeep with military license plates drove over to the gate.

The two young soldiers struggled to help Fang put the suitcase on the car.

Unfortunately, this jeep is an old model and has no rearview mirror.

Otherwise, Fang Xiang could still see that the car had driven away for a long distance, but those soldiers were still saluting him.

"When did this base of ours begin?"

After sitting in the car, the driver was the officer who had just inspected.

Fang Xiang looked at the road ahead, which was paved with loess and stones and was barely regular.

I looked around and saw that the environment was still somewhat bare, so I asked curiously.

“It started construction two years ago, and it’s not finished yet.”

After turning the corner, a valley with a small open space appeared in front of us.

The first thing that comes into view is a large courtyard surrounded by a red brick wall.

When we got to the door, we saw a sign hanging above it that said “Hongguang Commune.”

There were several soldiers standing guard at the door. When they saw the jeep, they saluted and let it pass.

Entering the large courtyard, there are single-story blue brick and tile houses on both sides of the road.

On the walls of some houses, slogans such as "Serve the People" and "Long Live the People" were built with bricks.

A little further away, there are several two-story factory buildings, also built with blue bricks.

After passing through several buildings, you can still see the nearest hillside.

There is actually a huge cave.

Fang Xiang’s initial impression of this place was, why does it look like a primitive society?

How can we study cutting-edge technology like aerospace in such a primitive place?

But when he saw the cave, Fang Xiang suddenly understood.

Everything you see on the surface is an illusion.

The real stuff is all underground.

After a while, the car stopped in front of a two-story brick house.

Looking at the soldiers standing guard at the door with guns in their hands, and the staff rushing in and out of the door.

Fang Xiang immediately understood that this should be a building used for offices.

"arrive."

The officer turned off the engine, opened the door and got out.

Then he opened the trunk and took out Fang Xiang's suitcase.

Fang wanted to follow closely.

"The person in charge here is Mr. Huang, who is also an academician."

Arriving at the door of a room, the officer put down the suitcase and said something quietly to the other party before knocking on the door.

"Enter."

A somewhat old voice sounded from behind the door.

"Mr. Huang, this is Fang Xiang."

The officer put Fang Xiang's suitcase at the door, saluted, and left.

"Hello, Mr. Huang."

Fang Xiang took two steps forward and stretched out his hand.

"Are you Fang Xiang?"

Mr. Huang looked to be only fifty years old and was quite thin.

Although he looks like an ordinary middle-aged man, Mr. Huang's eyes are exceptionally bright.

"sit."

After the two men shook hands, Mr. Huang pointed to the chair in front of the desk.

Only after Fang Xiang sat down did he have a chance to look around the office.

The room was extremely small, less than ten square meters.

Two glass bookcases filled with various books and folders.

On the desk stood a somewhat worn and faded globe and a radio with a broken casing.

Then there were papers of varying sizes with various designs drawn on them.

"Mr. Hu from the General Armament Department asked me to come here, saying that we might need my help here.

So, come and have a look.”

Fang Xiang looked at Mr. Huang's curious eyes and explained his purpose.

“I know, it was Lao Meng who invited me.

Your fame has spread quite a lot recently.

I've made an appointment with Mr. Zhou, and he even gave you an award.

I heard that several industrial ministries are trying their best to help you.

So which unit are you in now?"

Mr. Huang lowered his head slightly and looked at Fang Xiang, his eyes full of curiosity.

"Working as chief engineer at a heavy truck manufacturing plant in Luoyi."

Fang Xiang showed a reserved smile.

Almost everyone who sees his age is curious about him.

After a long time, Fang Xiang got used to it.

"Zhongka? Luoyi? Aren't you in Shuimu? Who is your mentor?"

Old Huang frowned, as if something was a little different from the rumors he had heard.

"I have already graduated. My supervisor is Professor Xu. You should know him. He is also an academician."

Fang Xiang gave a brief explanation.

"He arranged for you to be the chief engineer of a heavy truck factory?"

Mr. Huang became more and more curious.

“In the future, Second Automobile Works will most likely be located in Luoyi.

By then, I think the probability that I will be responsible is very high."

Fang Xiang touched his nose. Didn't he say he was working on rocket engines? Why was it the same as checking the household registration?

Could it be that you have some questions about me?

"Do you know anything about engines?"

Just when Fang was wondering, Mr. Huang finally got to the point.
