Hao Jianshe looked at Gu Yunyang and said with satisfaction, "Yunyang has already won the honor of being one of the top ten outstanding youths at the provincial level."

What?

Fan Zhijian wondered if he had become out of touch with society.

How come he hasn't heard of it?

"This is the news brought by the cadre today. The provincial newspaper will also report on it."

Fan Zhijian was also delighted.

They are now all in the same faction as Gu Yunyang, although it's not a matter of shared prosperity or shared loss.

They can also share some benefits with each other.

"This is it."

Once at the agricultural machinery factory, it became Fan Zhijian's domain.

However, Fan Zhijian did not vie for control; instead, he relinquished it to Gu Yunyang.

Gu Yunyang led his men into the previous workshop, where there was no one else.

The production line has been moved to a normally operating workshop.

This is for Gu Yunyang to use.

After a group of people came in, they saw a machine that was different from a traditional threshing machine.

Only then did the cadre realize that the new machine Gu Yunyang had made was a threshing machine.

Gu Yunyang explained with a smile: "Our traditional threshing machine is actually just a square wooden box. After harvesting the rice, our farmers would hold the rice ears in their hands and slam them hard against the wooden boards of the box."

By pounding and beating the rice, the grains are threshed from the rice ears.

However, this traditional threshing method is not only time-consuming and labor-intensive, but also inefficient.

Finally, the remaining rice grains on the ears of rice need an additional procedure to be completely threshed.

The follow-up process is also time-consuming and laborious.

Our new semi-mechanized threshing machine is different; it's essentially just an additional roller installed inside.

We added some wire to this roller.

Then, through this rotating mechanism, an external pedal is connected.

As Gu Yunyang explained, he stepped onto the pedal: "Be careful, when the high-speed rotating rollers start spinning, the tearing force is extremely strong."

If you accidentally put your hand down, you could get a scrape or even a fracture.

At this point, all we need to do is hold the rice stalk and extend it toward the roller. By relying on the pulling force brought about by the rotation, we can easily thresh the rice grains off the stalk in a short time.

However, we don't have the actual product, so we can't demonstrate it live at the moment.

After all, no one knew that the junior cadre would come.

This was an unexpected event, and there really weren't any physical objects available for display at the moment.

Gu Yunyang thought for a moment and suggested, "Actually, some of the rice paddies are already ready for harvest. If the cadres want to see the actual results, we can transport the threshing machine over now and let them experience it on site."

Well, the automation of this diesel engine hasn't been tested yet.

Cadre Chu, would you like to see the rotation effect of the semi-automatic threshing machine equipped with a diesel engine first?

Or would you like to take a look from the fields later?

The cadre was also surprised by this outcome, and he considered it for a moment.

Seeing Hao Jianshe's expectant eyes, he simply said, "Then let's find a piece of land and experiment with it."

Upon seeing this, Fan Zhijian immediately went to make arrangements.

Luckily, the farm machinery factory had a four-wheeled vehicle with a cargo bed in the back, which was just the right size to fit the threshing machine.

As for the diesel engine, it can be installed there as well.

In addition, some parts for modifying the threshing machine to make it a semi-automatic machine were also packed up.

Gu Yunyang naturally didn't say much. At this moment, he found Hao Jianshe and said, "Our Hongqi Brigade's farmland is in the mountains, where the temperature is a bit later than outside. So, our Hongqi Brigade's farmland is not yet ripe. We need to find some ripe farmland in other brigades outside first."

“Okay, let’s find an early-maturing farmland in Hongxing Brigade first.”
