After eating, Lao Dao led the people to continue research and summary, while planning follow-up experiments.

Of course, according to Lao Dao's prediction, if the steel plant wants to build a factory to produce tungsten metal, construction will have to start in the spring at the latest.

For now, all they can do is slowly process it in the furnace and try to study the alloy formula.

Speaking of this formula, there is a blank in China. The ones currently used are those given by the alliance, but there is no achievement in key areas.

This thing cannot be analyzed by just getting the physical product.

Even if a hard lump melts, you don’t know what’s inside!

In this regard, Lao Dao hopes that Yang Xiaotao will contact his superiors to see if there is any research from other manufacturers, so that they can learn from it first.

Yang Xiaotao responded.

Back in the office, Yang Xiaotao told Yang Youning and Liu Huaimin about the situation.

As expected, the two people didn't react much to this.

Yang Youning has recently been busy building a factory in Yanzhou, and Liu Huaimin also went to the First Machinery Department for meetings all day long.

The two of them were so busy with this matter that Chen Gong and Wang Guodong were responsible for the daily affairs of the machinery factory.

As for Yang Xiaotao, it would be great if he could help.

Regarding Yang Xiaotao's subsequent investment, both of them looked embarrassed.

Yang Xiaotao also understood that after spending so much, the gain was not much.

However, Yang Xiaotao chose to support it, and this research group was established with their consent, so there was no reason to refuse.

Just let Yang Xiaotao supervise it and don't waste it.

As for the tungsten alloy behind, there is still a long way to go, they just need to know.

Of course, when it came to the alloy formula, before Yang Youning said anything, Liu Huaimin had already shaken his head, "Don't think about it. There are not many people in the country who are researching alloys, let alone successful ones."

"If there is no success, there will always be failures."

"Providing a little experience of failure is better than nothing."

Yang Xiaotao tried to hear the news, but Liu Huaimin still shook his head.

"Sometimes, they don't know how they failed. There are too many factors involved, such as fire, time, temperature, materials..."

“Any idea why research is getting harder?”

Yang Xiaotao shook his head.

"Because these factors are beyond our control."

"To give a simple example, temperature."

"How to control the temperature, how to measure the temperature? Do you have instruments? What should I do if the temperature is high? What should I do if it is low?"

"If these cannot be solved, it will be difficult to refine the alloy, let alone the formula."

Yang Xiaotao didn't say anything after hearing this. He just felt that the path of researching alloys was difficult.

"No wonder they just threw it down and ignored it."

"It's obviously a trap."

As Yang Xiaotao said, Liu Huaimin and Yang Youning looked at each other helplessly.

In the afternoon, Yang Xiaotao finished his work, packed up his things and went home to make dumplings.

As soon as the car stopped, he saw Xu Damao walking outside the alley with a bruised nose and a swollen face.

He didn't catch the car either, and grinned as he walked.

Judging from my walking pace, it seems that the middle leg is injured.

Xu Damao walked in front, followed by Silly Zhu triumphantly.

Yang Xiaotao saw the posture of the two and knew that these two bitter enemies were definitely at war again.

I'm not surprised, I'm too lazy to look at it.

Yang Xiaotao picked up the car and carried a foot-long carp to the front yard, preparing to go home to celebrate the New Year.

As soon as I entered the house, I saw a lot of people sitting in the house.

In front of me, the old man was holding the Dragon Boat Festival and was staring at the TV. There were so many people inside, and he couldn't see clearly what was being played.

Everyone behind saw Yang Xiaotao coming back and greeted him one after another.

Yang Xiaotao saw from the crowd that Ran Qiuye was kneading dough in the kitchen.

Looking around, he saw that the dishes were all complete and there was a lot of pork, so he rolled up his sleeves and started packing the carp.

At dinner time, the people in the courtyard returned home and began to celebrate the New Year.

On the dinner table, there are four dishes.

Yang Xiaotao, Mr. Yang and Lao Tao were sitting at the table, while Ran Qiuye was looking after the children and sitting beside them.

"Come and taste my special wine."

The old Taoist opened the small wine jar he brought and filled it for the three of them.

Yang Xiaotao glanced at the wine jar with a strange expression on his face. He knew the wine was special from the smell.

Can…

Looking at the old man and his wife, Yang Xiaotao's eyes were filled with amusement.

The old man saw Yang Xiaotao's intention and ignored him. He raised his glass to the master and said, "Brother, let's drink this wine. It will nourish the liver and kidneys, strengthen the stomach and remove dampness, relax the muscles and activate blood circulation. It's good."

Mr. Yang also picked up the cup and said, "Okay! Let's drink ours and treat it as our own home."

The two clinked glasses and drank, and Yang Xiaotao also picked up the glass and took a sip.

It's similar to the ones in the northwest, but it seems to be more pure cotton.
