Siheyuan: Starting with one acre and three fen of land

Inside the tall factory building, heat permeated the air, forming a series of heat wave barriers.

The molten steel flows out of the furnace and into the continuous casting machine, where batches of steel billets are hammered into shape.

Entering the next process, it is molded into various types of steel.

He Yuzhu wore a safety helmet and scanned the production line.

Standing next to him was Victor and another companion in work clothes.

Since the emergence of civilian helmets, they have developed rapidly in the past few decades.

Although it has not reached the future level, the basic protection function is already there.

Under the guidance of others, He Yuzhu walked slowly along the pedestrian passage and visited the workshop.

The orange-red steel billets emitted scorching heat in the distance, and they could only watch from a safe distance.

As a result, He Yuzhu's perception range was not enough and he could only "see" half of it.

It is easier to get things done with someone around. Although Victor didn't understand He Yuzhu's request, he wanted to go to the other side to take another look.

But with Alyosha's kindness, he successfully persuaded the other party.

After all, it's just an extra trip and there are no other violations, so such a request is not excessive.

After this trip, the main goal of this "visit" was achieved directly.

The Magnitogorsk Iron and Steel Works truly represents the highest level of steelmaking and has now begun to use top-blown oxygen converters.

Oxygen bottom blowing has not yet appeared, and this steelmaking technology is the most advanced in the world.

As for the more advanced top and bottom blowing smelting method, that will be decades later.

Of course He Yuzhu doesn't mind letting it come out in advance, but for now he still honestly hands in the top blowing method.

After looking over the entire set of rolling mills, He Yuzhu has a clear idea of ​​the current development level and keeps its performance and characteristics in mind.

In this way, when he makes the Chinese version of the equipment later, he can grasp the scale more accurately and avoid exceeding the current technological level.

Use the rest of the time to visit supporting factories and continue to learn about the equipment level.

There are similar factories in China. No matter whether the technology is advanced or backward, at least it is useful.

Once steelmaking is quite effective, there will be time to upgrade the supporting facilities.

A few days passed in a flash, and in the blink of an eye it was time to say goodbye.

The afterglow of the setting sun shines on the factory gate building, adding a layer of golden glow to this steel castle.

He Yuzhu took one last look at the land, reached out to open the car door, and sat in the passenger seat.

Alyosha held the steering wheel with both hands, looked at He Yuzhu sideways with a sincere smile on his face.

"He, how have you been feeling these past few days? I'm not exaggerating, am I?"

After He Yuzhu sat down, he turned around and said, "Alyosha, you are right. It is really spectacular inside and can be called a cultural landscape."

Alyosha started the car and drove onto the road. There were many people going to get off work, so the car was driving slowly.

He didn't dare to be distracted, his eyes were fixed on the front of the car, and he didn't turn around to respond to He Yuzhu.

After hearing He Yuzhu's words, a look of pride and excitement appeared on his face.

"Haha! Yebao is also a great city. You should experience it when you go there this time."

He Yuzhu did not refute, but just smiled and nodded.

As the third largest city in the Soviet Union, Yevhensk has laid the foundation of metallurgy and machinery since its establishment in the 18th century.

During the war, hundreds of large factories moved here from the Western Theater.

This makes Yebao a huge industrial production base, where machinery, heavy chemicals, weapons manufacturing and smelting are all of great importance.

Among them, the Ural Heavy Machinery Plant alone is the largest machinery plant on the Soviet side, and many cities cannot match its scale.

Now, Ural Heavy Machinery Plant is involved in almost all domestic machinery factory aid projects.

Several years ago, we sent international students to study in Yeburg’s higher education institutions, and they became the backbone of our subsequent development.

The next day was time to set off for Yebao. The sunlight shone through the gaps in the curtains and into He Yuzhu's house.

He had already packed his bag and put the gifts he had prepared in the trunk.

Alyosha and Vasily also arrived early. After the three of them worked together to put the luggage away, they got in the car together.

In order to see He Yuzhu off, a driver was specially assigned to the car today.

Vasily sat in the passenger seat, while Alyosha sat side by side with He Yuzhu in the back seat.

The car started slowly and drove towards the station.

Vasily turned his head with a smile on his face and looked at He Yuzhu, his tone full of gratitude: "He, thank you for your hard work these days!"

Alyosha felt a little sorry, but he admired He Yuzhu's cooking skills and made him proud as the introducer.

Alyosha was listening nearby and felt somewhat apologetic.

Initially, it was agreed on the bus that it would only entertain some senior leaders, but after the first day, the amount doubled.

This is certainly more than the originally planned number, and the reasons are obvious.

With He Yuzhu’s current cooking skills, a little more wouldn’t be too much of a burden, so he didn’t refuse.

Sending the Buddha to the west is like making a good karma.

The advantage of this is that the steel plant has an office in Yebao and can directly arrange for He Yuzhu to stay there.

When we arrive at Yebao, the station has arranged someone to pick up He Yuzhu.

He Yuzhu has already gained great benefits this time, these are just details.

He smiled and waved his hand: "Vasya, we are all friends, and we should help each other.

You have also arranged for me to go to Yebao this time."

For Vasily, arranging these little things is certainly not as good as the benefits brought by these few days.

Vasily originally planned to give He Yuzhu some reward, but Alyosha stopped him.

In addition to bringing a bunch of gifts from the Red Castle, Alyosha also knew that it would be difficult for He Yuzhu to get paid.

This is not a thank you to him, but may bring unnecessary trouble to He Yuzhu.

The values ​​demonstrated by He Yuzhu made Vasily accept foreign friends.

"He, these are too few." Vasily thought for a moment and continued,

“Well, I’ve inquired about this in the past few days. When you go to Yebao, you usually organize dinners for comrades studying in schools and factories.

This time I have contacted the office and prepared the food for you, which will be your reward."

He Yuzhu was a little surprised, but since it was his first time going to Hongbao, there was indeed an arrangement for organizing a meeting for the international students.

Since Vasily said so, it must be true.

He thought for a moment, then nodded in agreement: "This won't cause you any trouble, right?"

Vasily waved his hand and said confidently, "He, don't worry! Everything will be fine.

The banquet you prepared this time was not fake, it was just that the reward was exchanged for food."

If you can get it for free, just take it and report it later.

Compared with this harvest, these are nothing.

"Very well, Vasya, I won't refuse. But you don't have to prepare any precious food, just some ordinary meat and vegetables."

Vasily naturally understood the meaning of the words and nodded in agreement.

The atmosphere in the car became more cheerful. Alyosha took over the conversation and the three of them began to chat. Their friendship continued to grow through communication.

While we were chatting, the car moved forward and finally stopped in front of the station.

The three of them opened the car door and got out.

Alyosha and Vasily helped carry the things and escorted He Yuzhu into the station.

On the platform of the train station, they shook hands tightly and said goodbye to each other.

Amid the roar of the train, He Yuzhu sat on the train heading towards Yebao.
