Chapter 221: Convoy
When Liu Mingyuan was frightened in the sedan chair for signing the agreement, Shi Li was still pestering Xiao Jing to approve the work note. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
"Well, don't you want to do this, okay?" Xiao Jing was full of black lines, and he didn't know how to speak, "The matter of the work article must be attended by the executive committee, and at least three-fifths of the elders must be resolved to make a number, even if I approve it for you now." ”
"It's okay, it's okay!" Shi Li hurriedly interrupted him, "You sign it first, and then I'll go to Zhang Yuan, he must be in the hospital now, it's easier to find than brushing a fixed NPC, and when he signs it, I can go to the front to find Yang Minghuan, anyway, this thing has to be approved." ”
"But I don't have a pen right now!" Xiao Jing didn't want to approve it, but he didn't really know how many people there were in the human resources department at the moment, and the main ones who knew that this was Du Yande and Sun Wenbin, as a person from the wood and industrial port, his main job was not in this aspect at all. Because there is a special person in charge of these aspects of the executive committee, if he approves the work order, and the human resources department can't send people, then it will definitely be criticized. Some time ago, those naturalized people were not familiar with the work process, and they distributed the scraps of the carpentry factory and the lumber mill indiscriminately, and a batch of materials were distributed to four or five departments, which made him criticized several times in the meetings of the executive committee and the industrial department, and he did not want to take this responsibility.
"No problem, I brought a pen," Shi Li said as he pulled a pencil out of his pocket. He really worked hard for the chemical plant, and it was difficult to purchase chemical production equipment from the beginning. You must know that the chemical equipment is basically a stupid big black guy, and the transportation and installation are very inconvenient. Finally arrived in the new world, these stupid black and coarse chemical equipment stayed on the ship for more than a month before the completion of the trestle, and was affected by a lot of seawater, and he had to take the veterans of the chemical port to the Dongfeng every day to check the equipment. Later, after almost half a month of unloading, the batch of chemical equipment was finally unloaded in the warehouse of the logistics department, and when I happily waited for the construction of the chemical plant to begin, it was so silent. As the person in charge of the Ministry of Chemical Industry, he had to beg his grandfather to tell his grandmother to run various departments, and now when it comes to the veterans that all the elders know, in addition to the five executive committee members of the executive committee, he counted him, and he ran through each department in order to coordinate the transportation of materials. Later, Xie Mingfang couldn't see it anymore, and finally persuaded several veterans of the surveying and mapping department to use the rest time to help Shi Li find a good place in the north of the Yancun Industrial Zone.
This made Shi Li very excited, and finally found a place to start construction, so the veterans of the Ministry of Chemical Industry excitedly drew all kinds of drawings, looking for design drawings, and soon drew the design drawings of the chemical plant with the terrain of that place or something. However, the design drawings are in place, but the construction personnel are never in place.
Now there is no engineering equipment in Dongfang Port due to the lack of oil, so the construction department is now only left with manpower and the construction team can be used. Although the manpower construction team seems very simple, that is, everyone is issued a rattan safety helmet made by a local rattan factory, and then a hoe, shovel, pickaxe and other tools for each person, but it can't stand the entire Dongfang Port, whether it is Yancun Industrial Zone or Beiqiaotou Town, the industrial system of the Senate is under construction everywhere. At present, the work schedule of the manpower construction team has been scheduled to June and July, and even if Shi Li's current work is approved, it cannot be dispatched immediately, at least after June and July. But now, although it is difficult to wait, there is always a lot of platoon, who knows how many moths will be produced by the industrial layout at that time? If you don't rush the schedule now, I'm afraid it's too late when I think of grabbing it.
Xiao Jing reluctantly took the pencil and signed his name in the document approval area. Shi Li excitedly took this document, and took the naturalized people who came with him to drag the three thousand taels of silver to the Gaode Grain Bank to enter the account. He now has a smile on his face, and now he has this one hundred and twenty kilograms of silver, even if the condition is worse, it will be two thousand six or seven hundred yuan. Some time ago, I ran to the Planning Committee every day, and I was really tired of fighting with people from other departments to grab the budget, but it was only the first phase of investment of 500 yuan, and now I suddenly had more than 2,000 yuan of directional funds, which is so happy, what do you really want. Now there is also an executive committee member to sign the work note, and the rest will come out and find Zhang Yuan to sign, and then go to the front to find Yang Minghuan, and then hand over the approval to Yusha, and it will be all done, and wait for the work to be sent to yourself after July.
At this time, a convoy was slowly moving on the road from the coal mine to the Yancun Industrial Zone, and Wu Jingmin was sitting on an ox cart at the front, driving the water buffalo in front of him to drag the cart slowly. These carts were locally produced in the port of the East, and unlike all the animal-powered tractors of the Yama Dynasty and Annam, they were four-wheeled vehicles. Four-wheeled vehicles are far superior to two-wheeled vehicles in terms of stability and carrying capacity, but in the old time and space, until the end of the Qing Dynasty, China has been widely manufacturing and using two-wheeled vehicles as a means of transportation, because the Chinese people can't figure out the steering system of four-wheeled vehicles. However, the guys in the Senate had a huge golden finger, that is, hundreds of years of knowledge more than the time and space, they easily found the blueprints of the horse-drawn carriage in the western period, and then began to produce these four-wheeled transporters in small batches as the main means of transportation in the transportation department, to replace those motor vehicles that are now completely devoid of fuel.
Although the energy department has now assembled the oil shale extraction equipment in the spirit of making amends, there is no production at all, and the railroad tracks from the coal mine to the Yancun refinery are still being laid, so the current capacity can only rely on human and animal vehicles. Wu Jingmin's transport team became famous for a while, and became a favorite of various industrial departments, and even the cattle were pulled out of Sun Wenbin's farm. Wu Jingmin originally wanted to go to the military horse farm to get horses, but he didn't expect to be rejected by He Yue, and the two had a big quarrel about it, which made the executive committee shocked. Wu Jingmin said that at present, this Dongfang Port needs a lot of animal power for transportation, and pigs and sheep must not be used to pull carts, so the only people who can be used to pull carts in Dongfang Port are cattle and horses, and the horses in the breeding farm have long been transferred to the military horse farm for breeding and breeding, and there are few buffaloes among the cattle, and most of them are cattle that are not suitable for farming and pulling carts -- who let the animal husbandry department target the beef of cattle when they first purchased it, and the buffalo is not because of maintaining the population at the moment. They won't buy it at all, and now the transportation department of the Oriental Port will be reduced to the situation of using oxen to pull carts. If the oxen are not suitable for pulling carts, then only the horses remain. At present, everything must be focused on the construction of the industrial system of the Senate, and the most important thing in infrastructure construction work is still a transportation capacity, in order to build the industrial system of the Oriental Port, it is absolutely necessary to use horses, not to mention that the indigenous rich families also brought a large number of horses over during the retreat of the Champong Port, and these horses were redeemed through the military horse farm, and now there are more than a hundred horses, which has far exceeded the number of cattle, and even more than the rabbits in the farm. So many horses, not used to pull carts and drive, so are they all raised as masters? You must know that the military horse farm is now used to feed the horses every day is not only forage, but also mixed with a lot of oats and beans, and even the drinking water for the horses is filtered tap water from the distant reservoir with bamboo pipes.
He Yue also retorted mercilessly, although there are more than 100 horses in the military horse farm, among which pack horses are the mainstay, which is indeed suitable for pulling carts. But the problem is that there are not many people in the transportation department who can drive horses, Wu Jingmin's experience in driving horse-drawn carriages and ox-carts was still practiced when he went to the countryside, he has not driven it for decades, and now he can barely catch ducks on the shelves, but if this group of post-80s and 90s even has many veterans who have never seen horses to control these horses, even if they are docile, they will have accidents. Although some of the naturalized people knew how to control horses, they did not know how to protect them. You must know that horses are very fragile animals, and they are very picky about eating and drinking. The horses collected from the wealthy families of Annam were almost never nailed to the horseshoe, and the fat loss was generally very serious. If you ride on these hardened roads in Port Orient, it is easy to damage the hooves and legs of the horses, causing unnecessary horse losses. If you want to transfer the horses from the military horse farm to pull the carts, unless the cavalry is transferred from the cavalry brigade to drive and take care of the horses, everything is not to be discussed.
Several members of the executive committee listened to the opinions of both sides, and they had no clue at all, both sides had their own positions, and they were all thinking about the interests of the Senate, and their heads were in chaos, and they did not know how to mediate at all. You must know that Wu Jingmin's body has begun to recover in the past few days, if he can't solve the capacity problem immediately, he will soon have to go to the executive committee building every day to find Du Yande to urge the gas engine modification. This problem is also solved very strangely, everything comes from a joke when Cao Xiang was eating, she followed Du Yande to the cafeteria with her daughter and passed by the night market on the way to the canteen. The night market had not yet opened, and the place where the lamb skewers were kebab was empty, only the grill poked there, and Du Yande began to talk to her about the small days in the old time and space. Cao Xiang told a joke that a friend in the Northeast had said, "In our Northeast, any contradiction can be solved as long as you make a string, if you can't, then you can do it twice." ”
Therefore, the solution of this matter was brought to the night market to deal with it. In addition to several executive committee members and Wu Jingmin and He Yue, there were also He Rolling Dragon.
He Rolling Long is also troubled by this matter, at present, there is no logistics convoy of the army in Dongfang Port, and at this stage, all the transportation of civilian and military materials is in the hands of Wu Jingmin, seeing that Wu Jingmin quarreled with his old man, what if for this reason, what if he wears small shoes for himself when transporting supplies to the Air Force in the future?
Although the two sides of the negotiation at the night market that day did not have a good conversation, under the nourishment of alcohol, Wu Jingmin and He Yue inexplicably became friends at the end of the day. Although Du Yande couldn't believe it, he completely solved the contradiction of this capacity problem, that is, He Yue's military horse farm was responsible for providing twenty horses to the transportation department every week for use as capacity, but the horse control was carried out by the horsemen provided by the military horse farm. The transport department provides fifteen people to work in the military horse farm every week, not only to learn the skills of horse care and handling, but also to prepare for the formation of a new civilian horse training ground.
Although Wu Jingmin's current lead car is a cow, several cars behind him are all pulled by relatively short Dian horses. Although these horses may seem short, they are as strong as the buffalo. In addition, the transportation department also found six donkeys from the strange trade list of the trade department, these donkeys were transported from the interior of the Wu Dynasty to Fujian, and then crossed the ocean from Fujian, which were originally intended by Zheng Zhihu and Xu Wei to be used for transportation when the ship loaded and unloaded goods. On the way back, they wanted to buy Senate rifles, and the donkeys were directly used to offset the value of the goods, and the price was quite not cheap, totaling ten taels and one heads. The naturalized man in charge of receiving by the trade department was a Madahar, who actually transported the donkeys as goods to the logistics warehouse, and by the time they were found, one of them was already dead, and the others were hungry enough, and they were sent to the military horse farm and rested for a few days before being fed.
The load force of these donkeys was much higher than that of horses, and the strength of the donkeys used for transportation when they were put on the boat, so that the carts they were now pulling were exactly the same as those drawn by horses that were a head larger than them. Next to the convoy were ten cavalrymen, the guards of the military horse brigade, who were responsible not only for the safety of the goods transported by the convoy, but also for the safety of the horses, because the value of the horses was much higher than the black oil shale in the carts they pulled.
The convoy soon arrived at the entrance of the oil shale plant, which is now a very important production department, the walls of the factory are made of green bricks and cement, which from the outside look like a castle, the walls are four meters high, two meters wide, and there is a horse road every 50 meters, which can ensure that personnel can quickly get up and down the wall. On the outside of the wall is a low wall of blue bricks with a height of 1.2 meters, and there are battlements in the wall to facilitate observation and shooting by the defenders. Because it is the most important fuel and industrial lubricants in the entire industrial system of the Oriental Port, it is very well defended, but since all the army units are now sent out to suppress bandits, it is guarded by the factory militia formed in the factory at this time. These militias are the best equipped militia in Dongfang Port, not only are they all equipped with iron helmets, but they are also equipped with senate rifles that have been eliminated by the army, after all, Zheng Zhihu does not have enough money to empty the inventory of senate rifles in order to purchase more Chinese goods.
