Siheyuan: The soul travels through time and space to change fate

Chapter 209 Arrival at the Ice City Cannon Foundry

"It's fine this way. His family should be able to see him for the last time."

When Editor-in-Chief Yan spoke at this time, he agreed to this matter.

Half an hour later, Li Denghui, who was determined to have died of natural causes, was carried off the train.

The atmosphere inside the partition has not been good since Li Denghui was found dead in the morning.

However, this matter did not have much impact on Xu Damao.

"You two, please accept my condolences, the dead cannot be brought back to life.

Besides, man is iron and rice is steel. If you don’t eat for a meal, you will be hungry!

But if you skip two meals, you will get sick easily. It’s already noon, let’s eat something!”

Xu Damao took out the food box of braised dishes he had prepared, as well as three large white steamed buns, and invited Editor-in-Chief Yan and Reporter Li to dine together.

"Hey, I didn't expect that something like this would happen just after we left the city. Comrade Xu is right. Let's eat something! But Comrade Xu, your attitude is pretty good!

Even if someone dies in our room, you should still eat and sleep. I can't learn that!"

Editor-in-Chief Yan, it is obvious that you want to use this method to change the subject.

"I am a soldier. If I were on the battlefield, I would even use the bodies of my comrades to block bullets. If you can't even stand such a small thing, then don't be a soldier."

Xu Damao said it lightly, but when Editor-in-Chief Yan and Reporter Li heard it, they were a little surprised.

They never thought that Xu Damao could actually say such words.

Judging from this kid’s age, he doesn’t look like he has ever participated in a major war, right?

"Don't look at me like that. If you've been assassinated before, your mentality will be much better."

Following Xu Damao's explanation, the two felt relieved.

When Lou Zhenhua was assassinated, this guy seemed to be at the scene. As well-informed media people, they knew some of the events that happened that day.

However, if the higher authorities do not allow it, this matter will not be reported in the newspaper.

But this does not prevent them from learning some details of the matter!

“Well, that’s true!

But the food you prepared for your business trip is really good. I am drooling just by looking at it!"

The two were indeed hungry, and after they put their worries to rest, their stomachs began to growl.

If you smell the aroma of braised meat at this time, you will feel even hungrier.

Therefore, he didn't bother to be embarrassed and directly accepted Xu Damao's invitation. At worst, he could just invite him back during the next meal.

The rest of the journey was much calmer, and the train arrived in Ice City late at night on the second day.

After leaving the station, there was already a vehicle waiting for Xu Damao.

On a wooden sign next to the vehicle, Xu Damao's name was clearly written.

"A military vehicle came to pick us up. It seems that the identity of Comrade Xu Damao is not as simple as it seems!"

After seeing this scene, reporter Li exclaimed.

“No matter how unsophisticated it is, it’s not something we should be concerned about.

Although journalists must maintain their curiosity, there are some things that are better not to explore.

Xiao Li, you must remember this matter clearly. "

Editor-in-Chief Yan warned reporter Li not to delve into Xu Damao's identity. In fact, he himself was also shocked. Maybe this man was not just a captain?

The people who came to greet him were sure that the young man in front of them was the person they needed to receive after Xu Damao took out his military officer ID.

They never expected that they would be receiving such a young man.

After all, according to the news coming from Sijiu City, this man has the rank of captain, is an eighth-level engineer, and is the chief director of the general assembly workshop of the Red Star Factory!

If this happened to a middle-aged person in his forties, they would not be confused, and even people in their thirties would be able to accept it.

But when it was replaced by a young man in his twenties, everyone felt confused!

"Mr. Xu, I'm sorry, we didn't expect you to be so young!"

"It's okay, I'm used to it, let's go!"

At this time, Xu Damao had already made up his mind that if he went on a business trip next time, he must dress more maturely, at least to make people look like he was around 30 years old at first glance.

Otherwise, such misunderstandings will still happen.

The next day, Xu Damao, who was staying at the Bingcheng Cannon Foundry Guesthouse, enjoyed some black bread soaked in soy milk.

Well, to be honest, it wasn't really to his taste.

After finishing his meal, Xu Damao followed the receptionist’s instructions and went to the office of the technical department.

Here, he met the chief engineer of the cannon foundry, Mr. Liao.

"Hello, Mr. Liao, I am Xu Damao from the Red Star Factory in Sijiucheng.

This time I came here mainly to learn about the knowledge related to cannon casting. I hope Mr. Liao can take care of me in the future."

Xu Damao came to supervise the work, but if he said this directly in front of the chief engineer, it would seem like he didn't understand the ways of the world.

So, Xu Damao simply changed his statement.

Engineer Liao looked up at Xu Damao, with a hint of surprise in his eyes.

Although his subordinates had told him that this engineer Xu Damao from the old city was very young, he did not expect him to be so young.

"Haha, once we come here, we are a family. Let's get together for lunch. If we want to do a good job, we must drink as much as we can.

Don't worry about the tank gun. We will definitely complete the task meticulously according to the requirements of the final assembly.

The five guns have absolutely the same size and specifications.

We have studied the standardized operations of your Red Star Factory and found it to be a good way to manage production quality.

We will definitely enforce it strictly.”

As a third-level engineer like Lou Zhenhua, he can see the benefits of standardization at a glance.

Although there will be many obstacles when it is actually implemented, this tank gun is a key project of the military and he must strictly control the quality.

And we can take this opportunity to make standardization work popular among the people, so as to facilitate its comprehensive promotion in the future.

"Oh, thank you so much, Mr. Liao.

To be honest, before coming here this time, Engineer Pei and Engineer Lou reminded me that the acceptance must be carried out according to the indicators.

If there is even the slightest defect, it cannot be shipped back.

After hearing what you said today, I feel much more relieved."

Xu Damao was very satisfied with the first contact. At least the other party did not deliberately make things difficult for him just because of his young age.

"Haha, don't worry, don't worry. But since Engineer Xu has come here, he can't come for nothing. Shouldn't he leave something for our cannon foundry?

I heard that you, Engineer Xu, are very good at developing special steels. It would be even better if you could make us a good cannon steel."
