Chapter 111 Try the brake tank again to get benefits

Soon, several people left the steel mill again, pulling a one-ton truck.

However, when everyone left the steel mill, one of the security guards looked at them with some doubts in his heart.

"Strange! Why are you going out again after just coming back? And you brought three truckloads of steel bars with you. This is weird!"

The security guard muttered to himself, then walked towards the cadre building to report the situation.

When we arrived at Banpo again, the two masters looked a little serious.

Before, they could ignore the half-ton load, but now it’s one ton. The weight has increased, so they have to take it seriously.

Fortunately, their skills are not bad, and with the safety belts, they have more confidence in negotiating the hillside.

Although they didn't know the specific function of the brake water tank, with the seat belts in front of them, they had some confidence in the brake water tank.

Of course, but the most important thing is to rely on yourself!
"Let me go first!" Zhang Jinwu said first.

"Master, let me go first!" said Lu Wenjiang on the side.

"Master, with your skills, you can get through even without the brake radiator. Let me do it. Master Zhao Lin and I are both about the same. As long as I can get through safely, they can too."

"No, your skills aren't much better, let me go first." Zhang Jinwu refused.
"Master, let our senior brother come! I believe he can pass!" Li Kailang said.

Lu Wenjiang’s skills are similar to those of the two masters. If they can pass, Lu Wenjiang can certainly pass too. Besides, there is a brake water tank. Li Kailang doesn’t believe that Lu Wenjiang can’t pass!
"Xiao Li, this matter cannot be taken lightly!" Zhang Jinwu said seriously.

"Don't worry, Master. I have confidence in my brother's skills, and I also have confidence in my own invention!" Li Kailang affirmed, looking at Zhang Jinwu firmly.

Looking at Li Kailang's determined eyes, Zhang Jinwu knew that he couldn't persuade him, so he simply gave up, "Okay! Then you do it! Be careful!"

"Don't worry, Master!" Lu Wenjiang said happily, and then looked at Li Kailang and said:

"Xiao Li, do you have anything to say?"

"Generally speaking, it's nothing. There's only one thing, brother. Once you get out of the dirt road, just pull the switch and don't worry about it. Just do what you have to do. Just step on the brakes more often!"

"Don't worry, I know what to do!" said Lu Wenjiang.

"Be careful on the road!" said the four people.

I watched Lu Wenjiang sit in the driver's seat, drive out, quickly pass the bend and enter the dirt road.

But with the seat belt, Lu Wenjiang drove quite steadily. He stepped on the brakes at the right time and controlled the speed of the truck just right.

Soon, the car drove out of the dirt road. Lu Wenjiang followed Li Kailang's instructions and decisively pulled down the switch of the brake water tank.

"呲呲-"

Suddenly, a strange sound came into Lu Wenjiang's ears.

He was a little panicked by the sudden sound, and the car began to shake from side to side.

"What's going on? Where does this sound come from?"

Fortunately, the car was not going very fast at that time. Lu Wenjiang quickly regained his composure, regained control of the car and began to look for the source of the sound.

At the same time, the four people on the hillside saw Lu Wenjiang lose control, and their hearts stopped beating in an instant.

They stared at Lu Wenjiang nervously, worried that something might happen to him.

But then they saw Lu Wenjiang regain control of the car, and the four of them felt relieved. However, the two masters felt a little uneasy.

"Lu Wenjiang lost control just after driving out of the dirt road. Could this brake water tank be harmful?" They began to doubt this invention.

Even Zhang Jinwu almost didn't believe this invention, if it wasn't invented by Li Kailang.

Lu Wenjiang concentrated again, trying to find the source of the sound, but still couldn't find it.

After a while, the dull "hissing" sound disappeared. At this time, the temperature of the brake pad dropped and the sound disappeared.

Lu Wenjiang breathed a sigh of relief and focused on driving again.

He stepped on the brakes as usual, but felt something was wrong.

"Strange, doesn't there usually seem to be a burning smell? Why isn't there one this time?"

When the truck was driving in the second half of the journey, Lu Wenjiang reduced the number of times he stepped on the brakes. According to past experience, there would be a burning smell every time he braked.

"Squeak--" Suddenly, the silent sound sounded again.

But with the experience from last time, Lu Wenjiang did not panic. Instead, he listened to the sound more carefully.

"Why does this sound feel like boiling water? Water?" Lu Wenjiang suddenly understood something.

"Brake tank! It's the water from the brake tank!"

Lu Wenjiang suddenly remembered Li Kailang's instructions, and carefully stepped on the brakes to control the speed of the car.

There was no squeaking sound or burning smell.

"Good, good, good!" Lu Wenjiang couldn't help but exclaim in praise.

In the past, when he reached the second half of this slope, he needed the help of brakes, but at this time the brake pads were very hot, so he didn't dare to brake easily.

But with the brake rinsing tank, he can clearly feel that the condition of the brake pads is very different from before.

"Squeak-"

Lu Wenjiang slowly stepped on the brakes to control the speed of the truck, but this time he did not hear a "squeaking" sound, but a "sizzling" sound instead.

This sound used to only appear shortly after getting out of the dirt road. At the same time, the "sizzling" sound indicates that the brake pads can still be used.

This gave Lu Wenjiang a great boost of confidence, allowing him to control the speed of the truck more calmly.

Soon, the bend was right in front of him. Lu Wenjiang had already controlled the speed of the car and drove through the bend smoothly.

Li Kailang looked at Lu Wenjiang's driving performance in the second half, which was even steadier than his second time. With more practice, sooner or later he would be able to replace Li Kailang and transport steel bars to the cement factory himself.

The task of providing cement for the tube-shaped building can also be handed over to Lu Wenjiang.

"Hehe! This is not bad! I can also be lazy!" Li Kailang said to himself.

Lu Wenjiang steered the vehicle through the bend, then turned around and headed towards the top of the hill.

"Xiao Lu, what happened when you just got out of the dirt road?" Zhang Jinwu asked anxiously, while paying attention to Lu Wenjiang's body. Fortunately, there was nothing unusual.

"Master, this is not Xiao Li's invention. It scared me." Lu Wenjiang complained.

"What's going on? Is it because Xiao Li's invention is not good and it affects you?" the two masters asked immediately.
If it was really Li Kailang's invention that had gone wrong, they wouldn't open it! Although they were familiar with each other, they wouldn't joke about their lives.

"It's not that Xiao Li's invention is bad, it's that Xiao Li's invention is too good!" Lu Wenjiang said happily.

"Then what do you mean?" Master Zhao asked puzzledly.

"Everyone look at this!" Lu Wenjiang pointed at the brake pads and tires.

"You guys touch it." After saying that, Lu Wenjiang took the lead and touched it tentatively, and the other three followed suit and touched the tire tentatively.

"It's not hot!" Several people were surprised and looked at each other.

They have opened it before. It used to be so hot that you couldn't even touch it. Now it still feels very hot.

"Yes, you saw it too. I was driving very steadily at the back because of the brake radiator," Lu Wenjiang explained.

Seeing everyone's faces full of disbelief, Lu Wenjiang started explaining from the dirt road.

"That is to say, you lost control on the dirt road because you were scared by the sound of the water tank pouring water!" Zhang Jinwu said
Lu Wenjiang nodded, "Yes, I also found it at the last minute, Master Zhao, Master Lin, don't worry if you hear any noise."

"I'm telling you, with this brake reservoir, you can use the brakes as you like in the second half of the journey without having to worry about accidents!"

The two masters nodded. If they really followed Lu Wenjiang's words, they would not worry about the slope at all.

"Let me try it first!" Master Zhao said first.

"No, I'll go first." Master Lin said hurriedly. He also wanted to experience it and see if it was really like what Lu Wenjiang said.

They were "defeated" by this slope many times, and finally they could hold their heads high this time.

The two were arguing about who should go first. Lu Wenjiang saw that he had no way to stop them because both of them were big shots.

"Okay, stop arguing! It doesn't matter whether you go early or late, Lao Zhao, you go first."

"Old Lin, take another look and wait for Old Zhao to come back and ask if there is anything else you need to pay attention to. Safety first!" Zhang Jinwu said.

"Okay, I'll listen to you this time! You must drive carefully and remember to tell me if there is anything you need to pay attention to!" said Master Lin.

"Just wait and see!" Master Zhao said confidently.

Get in the car and set off immediately.

Soon, the two masters drove over the slope with the help of the brake water tank. At this time, the four people were talking on the hillside.

"Xiao Li, your brake water tank is really great! No need to be afraid when going downhill in the future! Your invention is of great benefit!" Master Lin said with emotion. "Yes! Your brake water tank can save our drivers' lives!" Master Zhao also exclaimed.

"Your two inventions will be of great use to the drivers supporting the Northwest, as well as those drivers working hard on the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau!" Zhang Jinwu also exclaimed.

Supporting the Northwest is now the major strategy of the city. Life there is hard and the terrain is harsh. These two inventions are very useful to them.

After a few sighs, they decided to return to the steel mill.

"Okay, now that we have verified it, let's go back first. We need to think about this matter carefully. We need to apply for a patent, so we can't be careless!" Zhang Jinwu said seriously.

Everyone got on the bus and headed towards the steel mill.
-
At this time, the transport team was very busy. When Li Huaide heard the news, he came here immediately.

When he heard that several masters went to the hillside to test their new inventions, he was immediately surprised!
Especially since this invention was made by Li Kailang, and he also said he wanted to apply for a patent to earn foreign exchange, which made Li Huaide even more confused.

He has known Li Kailang for some time. In his impression, this young man is always laughing and joking. He never expected that he has such talent.

Just as he was about to get to the bottom of the situation, they came back.

Just when Li Huaide wanted to ask further about the details, the sound of a car was heard in the distance.

Everyone looked up and saw three trucks approaching slowly.

"Look, Captain Zhang and the others are back!" An apprentice had sharp eyes and spotted them.

"Everyone, go and take a look!" Everyone rushed forward to greet them.

Soon, a group of people gathered around Li Kailang's truck, waiting for Captain Zhang Jinwu's explanation.

"Captain Zhang, what about the brake tank? Is it really as effective as Xiao Li said?" a master asked impatiently.

Zhang Jinwu joked: "Didn't everyone see it? Didn't we all return safely?"

After hearing Zhang Jinwu's joke, everyone realized that Li Kailang's invention was really useful!
"Captain Zhang, please tell us exactly what happened!"

"Yeah! What about the brake tank?"

"This? Don't ask me, I have no use for it!" Zhang Jinwu waved his hand and said

"Ah? Captain Zhang, how can you say the invention is useful if it's useless?" an apprentice asked in confusion.

"Hey, I haven't used your brain, but they have, haven't they? Go ask them three." Zhang Jinwu pointed at Lu Wenjiang and the other two and laughed.

Hearing this, everyone ran towards the three men, and in an instant, there was no space in front of Zhang Jinwu.

"Hey! Why are they all gone? I'll throw them away after you use them!"

Zhang Jinwu shook his head helplessly and didn't care any more.

At this time, Li Huaide came over and said politely: "Captain Zhang, are you back?"

"Deputy Director Li, why are you here?" Zhang Jinwu asked in surprise.

"I was inspecting the factory and saw your transport team making a lot of noise, so I came over to take a look!"

"I'm so sorry to have embarrassed you. I have something to take care of and I'm not with the transport team." Zhang Jinwu apologized, but he didn't feel much remorse in his heart.

"It's okay! It's okay! I just heard everyone say that Xiao Li invented the seat belt and brake water tank? They said these two things can protect the safety of the masters?"

"They also said that these two things can earn foreign exchange. They are not very clear about what they said. Let me ask Xiao Li, what is going on?"

"Hey, this is all hearsay, everyone is just spreading it. I'll tell you when the matter is really clear!" said Zhang Jinwu.

Zhang Jinwu didn't want to tell his superiors about Li Kailang's invention so soon. After all, there were still many areas that needed improvement.

It won’t be too late to report to the higher-ups once everything is ready, and he also has the idea of ​​Li Kailang’s invention.

"It's okay, let me listen to what's going on first!" Li Huaide asked firmly.

Seeing Zhang Jinwu keeping his mouth shut, Li Huaide knew that everyone was right.

Especially when he heard that Li Kailang's invention could earn foreign exchange, it made him even more interested.

As the deputy factory director in charge of logistics, Li Kailang's invention can be regarded as the result of his work.

If Li Kailang can achieve results, he will also get some honors, which will help Li Huaide get some support both in the factory and above.

Zhang Jinwu looked at Li Huaide and saw that he was determined to get to the bottom of the matter. He would not leave until Li Huaide gave him the answer.

This put Zhang Jinwu in a difficult position!

Li Kailang did not expect that the news would actually reach Li Huaide, but it was not a bad thing. If it spread widely, everyone would know about it and would pay more attention to the patent application.

At this time, Li Kailang reminded in a low voice: "Master, this matter has to be said sooner or later. I have already perfected the invention and cannot change it anymore."

Li Kailang did not make a decision, but told Zhang Jinwu the actual situation.

Looking at Li Kailang, Jin Wu was silent for a moment, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart: "The child has really grown up, I can't control him anymore, forget it, let him go on his own!
Zhang Jinwu knew that he could no longer guide him in all aspects as he did before, and he felt a little disappointed.

He looked at Li Kailang deeply, and then said, "Okay! Since you have made up your mind, you can discuss this matter with Deputy Director Li."

"Remember, you have the master behind you, don't be afraid!"

After saying that, he patted Li Kailang's shoulder gently, turned and left.

Li Huaide looked at Zhang Jinwu's departing back, and became more certain that this matter was not simple.

He immediately turned to Li Kailang and asked, "Xiao Li, please tell me, what happened to your transport team?"

Li Kailang looked at Li Huaide and began to explain in detail his inventions - seat belts and brake water tanks.

He described in detail the functions and effects of the two inventions, as well as the benefits they could bring.

This invention not only protects the safety of drivers, but also earns considerable foreign exchange income for the steel mill.

After listening to this, Li Huaide asked in disbelief:

"You mean, the seat belts and brake water tanks you invented can not only protect the driver's safety, but also apply for patents and earn foreign exchange?"

Li Kailang nodded and said affirmatively: "Yes, Director Li. As long as the patent application is successful, this foreign exchange will be pie in the sky."

Li Kailang nodded affirmatively and explained excitedly:
"Director Li, think about it. The country is in urgent need of foreign exchange. If we can successfully apply for a patent, it will be like finding a new way to make money."

"And it doesn't cost too much, just waiting for the patent to be approved."

Hearing this, Li Huaide took a deep breath and began to think about the feasibility of this matter in his mind.

If it is true as Li Kailang said, this invention will bring huge profits to the factory and also enhance his prestige in the factory.
Especially since my father-in-law was there, I could be considered to have achieved some results.

With so many benefits before his eyes, Li Huaide had to treat it with caution.

"Xiao Li, this matter is of great importance. Are you sure you can earn foreign exchange?" Li Huaide asked again.

"Don't worry, Director Li, what I said is not groundless. I have evidence. Please wait a moment!" After saying that, Li Kailang took out the patent book from his backpack.

"Director Li, please take a close look at this patent." Li Kailang repeated the explanation as he had given to Zhang Jinwu.

After a while, Li Huaide finally understood the huge potential and benefits of this invention.

Looking at Li Kailang, this kid can not only help him transport cement, but also complete the construction of the cadre building.

Now he can still help me achieve success. Li Kailang is not only a lucky star, but also his treasure pot!
"Xiao Li, do you have confidence in this matter? If you do, I will call a meeting of leaders now!" Li Huaide said seriously.

Although he was fooled by Li Kailang, he also knew that time was running out and he had to make a decision as soon as possible!

"This matter needs to be done as soon as possible, and we must not let anyone take away the credit!" Li Huaide thought to himself.

But this is exactly what Li Kailang wants. The patent application process takes a long time, and it is normal to delay it for two or three months.

Be sure to report it before Nils Bolin, and it would be best if you can get the application approved.

Although the two had their own ulterior motives, they were both eager to complete the task as soon as possible.

"Don't worry! Director Li, I have made preparations long ago!" Li Kailang said confidently.

"Okay, okay! I will call the factory leaders to a meeting now, and you should be prepared!" Li Huaide said seriously.

"Don't worry, Director Li, I promise not to embarrass you!" Li Kailang promised.

"Okay, go to my office now! I'm going to have a meeting with the leader!" Li Huaide said and left first.

Li Huaide did not want to take all the benefits for himself, but it was uncertain whether this would succeed or not. If something went wrong, he would definitely take the responsibility, or find someone to share the responsibility.

Li Kailang also works at the steel rolling mill, so the credit for this achievement must go to the leaders of the factory, it’s just a matter of how much.

Besides, Li Huaide has not yet completely taken control of the factory, so it’s better for him not to take all the credit for himself.

Before leaving, Li Kailang took the corresponding things with him. He had already prepared for this matter.
