Chapter 102 Being plotted

"In the future, rifle bullets will be the same as pistol bullets and will not need to pass my inspection." Liu Tao wiped the sweat off his face and ordered. He picked up the green water bottle and took a big sip of water. "Yes, Director!" The three quality inspectors answered in unison. They all had a happy look on their faces. This represented Liu Tao's affirmation and trust in their quality inspection department. Their efforts over the past year or so finally made Liu Tao feel assured of their quality inspection capabilities. Among the thirty people in the entire quality inspection department, Liu Tao scolded them the most. Now the clouds have finally been cleared and the moon has been seen! The production of pistol bullets and rifle bullets is very mature, and Liu Tao is relieved. However, when inspecting heavy machine gun bullets, the qualified rate still did not reach the goal set by Liu Tao. The target set by Liu Tao for the qualified rate of bullets is 99%. Now the qualified rate of pistol bullets and rifle bullets has been achieved. However, the qualified rate of heavy machine gun bullets is still far behind, with a qualified rate of only 80%, and this is after the previous inspection, when unqualified bullets have been picked out. Although the 80% pass rate seems very high, it is still 19% short of the target of 99% pass rate.

The 19% difference may not seem big, but you should know that the annual output of heavy machine gun bullets in Panshan Machinery Factory is to reach 100 million rounds!

This means that a difference of 19% will result in 19 million more unqualified bullets.

The production cost of a heavy machine gun bullet is nearly one yuan, and wasting 19 million more heavy machine gun bullets means a loss of tens of millions!

As for the pass rate of special bullets, it is even lower.

Liu Tao was also helpless about this, he knew that it would take time to improve the pass rate.

The improvement of workers' skills is not achieved overnight, but requires time to polish.

It took four days for Liu Tao to check all the weapons and ammunition, and once again resumed the rule of only needing to go to the quality inspection room for one hour every day.

Then Liu Tao focused his main energy on researching armored vehicle technology.

In a blink of an eye, another week passed.

After bidding farewell to the working group of the Fifth Machine Department, Liu Tao had to go to Kun City again.

The water conservancy and hydropower expert group finally completed the preliminary planning and design, and he needed to attend the meeting.

In the conference room, the chief engineer in charge of this project, Li Daozong, introduced: "Dear leaders, after our research during this period, it is recommended to build a reservoir here in Yiling County. This is in the middle and lower reaches of the South Panjiang River in the Pearl River Basin, 28km away from Yiling County, 60km away from Kun City, and 20km away from Panshan Machinery Factory."

"Choose here, the dam site controls a basin area of ​​4556 square kilometers, and it is recommended to use a concrete panel rockfill dam with a maximum dam height of 103m and a dam crest length of 309.8m. The average flow rate at the dam site for many years is 48.4 cubic meters/second, and the annual runoff is 1.53 billion cubic meters, the normal water level of the reservoir is 1, the total storage capacity is 437 million cubic meters, the effective storage capacity is 255 million cubic meters, the total installed capacity of the dam-type power plant is 320,000 kw, the designed power generation is 1.6 billion degrees, and the annual average is 1.2 billion degrees." "After completion, in addition to meeting the water and electricity needs of the current factory and three planned factories of Panshan Machinery Factory, it can also meet the total irrigation area of ​​378,100 acres." "The total investment is about 200 million yuan." Liu Tao muttered in his heart. It seems to meet the current and future plans of Panshan Machinery Factory, but in fact it is a private product. Such a large storage capacity, such a large power generation, and even the irrigation area has been calculated. This is not even installed. "Comrade Liu Tao, what do you think of this planning plan?" The leader looked at Liu Tao with a smile. Liu Tao showed an embarrassment and pondered for a moment, "Leader, this plan is naturally excellent, but our Panshan Machinery Factory is also very burdened. Most of the money will be used for construction. After the reservoir is built, the local area will also benefit a lot. How about this, our Panshan Machinery Factory will pay 100 million yuan, and the rest of the money will be paid by the province?"

"No problem!" The leader said without hesitation.

Liu Tao's eyes widened. Why did he feel like he was being plotted against?

Then he suddenly realized that the expert group must have exaggerated the total investment. With a total investment of 200 million yuan, it is not impossible to build it with 100 million yuan if you are stingy.

Then think of the total cost of the Maojia Village Reservoir Dam, which is less than 70 million yuan, plus the hydropower station, the total is estimated to be less than 100 million yuan.

It is indeed an old fox. This calculation is powerful enough. In the final analysis, it is the Panshan Machinery Factory that pays the bill.

But he could only nod and agree, because the resettlement and demolition of immigrants had to be done by the province, and the construction of the reservoir had to be organized by the province.

After all, such a large reservoir construction requires the organization of tens of thousands of people to start construction, and Panshan Machinery Factory does not have that ability.

"In this case, we will deepen it according to this plan and report it to the state." The leader said.

The province has no right to approve such a large reservoir, and it must be reported to the higher authorities.

However, for projects like this that the local government pays for itself, the higher authorities will often not make things difficult.

As long as you don't ask for money from the higher authorities, the higher authorities will naturally be the easiest to talk to.

After returning to Panshan Machinery Factory, Liu Tao continued to invest in the technical development of armored vehicles.

When he was free, he would write letters and experience the love letters of this era.

As for calling, it was convenient for Liu Tao, but not for Zhu Lin.

Writing letters was actually the main channel for them to communicate.

Before we knew it, it was late January, and the orders for delivery to Jordan were all ready and were being loaded and shipped to Kunming Railway Station, where they would be loaded and sent to Yangcheng.

For such a large order, basically each batch contains hundreds or thousands of tons and requires almost thirty train cars to transport.

Liu Tao does not need to contact Wang Baoguo, but can directly contact his father Liu Zhenbang.

It can be said that there are many links missing in the middle.

The Jordanian order has been completed, but Panshan Machinery Factory still has to prepare an order for Syria.

The pistol bullets and rifle bullets are not newly produced bullets, but are transferred from the arsenal in Kunming City to clear the inventory, and the corresponding bullets produced by Panshan Machinery Factory are replenished.

The entire Panshan Machinery Factory is developing at a high speed, and the output is increasing at a speed that can be seen with the naked eye.

The arrival of batches of medical staff and teachers at Panshan Machinery Factory also made every young man at Panshan Machinery Factory feel like they had been given a shot of blood.

The most common place I go to after get off work is the shopping mall, hoping to meet nurses and teachers.

As for work, it is more serious than ever.

If you don't work hard, not only will you not get a house, but you will also be looked down upon by women, and you won't be able to find a partner if you want to.

This involves lifelong happiness, so they have no choice but to work hard.

The production workshops that Liu Tao often goes to are those for heavy machine guns, heavy sniper rifles, and anti-aircraft machine guns. To complete orders, it can be said that this aspect of production is the most important.

The number of people in the production workshop is also increasing.

In addition, Liu Tao went to the new production workshop to repair and install machinery and equipment. These production workshops will be put into use soon.

During this period, almost all the educated youths from several nearby towns were absorbed by the Panshan Machinery Factory. After all, these educated youths had at least a junior high school degree, and some had a high school degree or even a college degree.

There were even professors who were sent here for labor reform, and these were all brought to Panshan Machinery Factory by Liu Tao through channels.
