The mayor of the town has been contacted, and construction will start soon, presumably with some food, steel and cement. ”

Li Bai agreed with the mayor to start work as soon as the rain stopped, and his $5,000 deposit was not so easy to get.

If you just take the money and don't do anything, I'm afraid that the first people to jump up will be those ordinary people.

In this poor and backward place, if you want to find a job that can feed you, even if you ask your grandfather to tell your grandmother, you may not be able to find it.

If the mayor of the town smashed so many people's jobs for his own selfishness, it would not be as simple as being desperately worked by.

"It's easy to say the materials, there are still a lot of them in the camp, you can use them casually, and the public account will be reimbursed!"

Every money for the peacekeeping force is budgeted, and there is a designated place to use it, and the little mobile expenses left by Luan Zheng Wei have to be used sparingly, and they can't afford to be tossed like Li Bai at all.

But the materials are different, relying on such a big country behind it, all kinds of materials can be stuffed into the barracks, which is only a lot more than planned.

No amount of famine in Somalia will starve the peacekeepers.

What's more, the shelf life of some materials is not long, and when they see that they are about to expire, they are often taken out to give favors.

Of course, cement alone will not remain in the warehouse waiting to fail and deteriorate due to moisture.

So as soon as Li Bai opened his mouth, Luan Zhengwei immediately promised to give it away for nothing, anyway, everything that should have been used in the camp has been used, and the country will continue to send it over, and it is idle when it is idle.

"I'm going to build a tavern and have some entertainment, and I see that when it's dark, the locals don't have anything else to do but make people. ”

Food, clothing, housing and transportation, Li Bai plans to start with food first, after all, this is a specialty of Huaxia, and it is easy to gain a firm foothold in the local area.

By the way, some singing and dancing are added, which can be regarded as adding some employment to the local area.

A tavern with food and drink should provide thirty or forty direct jobs and hundreds of related indirect jobs.

In addition to some of the indicators given to the local towns, most of the employment sources still give priority to the indigenous tribes that have reached cooperation agreements.

The people of the town have all kinds of relationships with those tribes, and they don't dare to complain.

After all, this is an employment opportunity won by strength, and if it is a small tribe that has no right to speak, I am afraid that the Chinese people will not take them seriously.

"Remember to add another school, it doesn't have to be too advanced, elementary school is fine!"

Luan added that he had visited the Papagana tribe, where the best building was the tribal primary school, which was even better than the tribal leader's house, which showed the importance that the locals attached to education.

If you want to build a primary school in the town, you will definitely get a warm welcome from the locals.

Li Bai thought about it and agreed.

It's just a primary school, and it doesn't cost much work, so it's enough to build a color steel tile greenhouse and level a piece of land as a playground.

Put a few long tables and benches in the greenhouse, erect a wooden board as a blackboard, and install a few electric lights, which can accommodate multiple grades at the same time.

If possible, build a few basketball hoops or football door frames on the playground, which is already a very good primary school in the local area.

Chalk, pen and paper, textbooks, workbooks, teaching and sporting goods such as football and basketball are readily available and can be reported to the Somali Government and international organizations, and are readily available at no cost.

Teachers are easy to solve, some are international volunteers, as long as they can cover room and board, it is best to give a little money symbolically, it will be easier to find people.

As soon as Luan Zhengwei finished urging on the front foot, the mayor of Houzhen came to the door with a group of people.

As soon as the weather cleared, they were screaming and planning to start work.

Otherwise, when the next rain hits, it will be muddy again, and it will be difficult to get it.

With the chicken feather order arrow given by Luan Zhengwei, Li Bai ordered troops in the barracks to pull the strong man, and used two trucks to carry some supplies to the planned location.

Without doing anything, the town primary school proposed by Luan Zheng Wei was simply placed on the edge of the tavern.

Take advantage of the large number of people, start work together on both sides, so that you can not delay time.

As soon as I heard that the Chinese people were going to start work, they not only took care of the food, but also paid the wages, and there was such a good thing, almost half of the people in the town, regardless of men, women, and children, poured out of the nest.

So much so that the people on the construction site were densely packed, and all the soldiers of the peacekeeping force who were pulled by Li Bai became foremen, directing these blacks to build infrastructure.

In this case, the mayor rubbed his hands and laughed all the time.

The residents here also want to eat.

There was no way for him to stop it.

Old men and women are more or less able to do some serious work.

But those children couldn't get rid of it, so they had to let them pull weeds and pick up stones, do some light work within their ability, the salary was not paid, originally planned to give a little, but I was afraid that the children were weak and easy to be robbed, so that there would be danger and disputes, so they only gave food.

Hearing that a large group of "workers" had arrived at the construction site, the Chinese peacekeepers had no choice but to send three cooks with a field multi-purpose cooking vehicle to help with the cooking.

In the face of so many mouths, there is definitely no big fish and big meat, but pancakes and luncheon meat are enough to ensure that everyone can consume enough calories.

The ground was dug more than a foot deep, evenly covered with a layer of gravel, re-filled with sand, clay, lime and cement, mixed evenly and began to tamp the foundation, using the ancient three-soil method.

At this time, enough manpower is needed, and the heavy impact of the construction site is endless, and the three-layer soil layer must not only fill the shallow pit dug up, but also pad more than a foot high, so as not to pour in rainwater.

At the same time, it is necessary to bury the pipeline, which is not available in standard design drawings, all on a piece of hand-drawn paper by Li Bai.

Such a construction process is far from substandard according to Huaxia's construction standards, and will definitely be investigated and demolished.

But I didn't expect the building on it to last for 100 years, in fact, it was thank God that it could last for 10 or 20 years.

These blacks can't do complicated work, but simple and repetitive mechanical work is very suitable for them, especially the ramming of the foundation, which matches the natural rhythm of the blacks.

The jovial singing was accompanied by the impact of ping-pong, becoming more and more neat and consistent.

There was a lot of strength and a lot of work, and it only took half a day to lay down the foundations of the tavern and the school.

Don't look at the process of Sanhe soil is very primitive, if the effort is used in place, it will not be much inferior to reinforced concrete, or even more than that.

As soon as the sun went down, a second rainstorm almost followed.

Because of the addition of fast-drying cement, several chemicals and hot weather, the hardening process is greatly accelerated, and the natural drying that originally required three days of exposure is shortened to only a few hours.

By the time the first drop of rain falls on the foundation, a crust has formed on the surface and doesn't have much of an impact.

The next day, the sky did not clear, it was still overcast.

One moment the wind blows, and the other time it is as thin as silk.

The construction site did not stop, but the number of people decreased considerably.

Both the surface and the internal strength of the foundation, although it is not completely hard, but it is enough to use, the next construction of the shed is a technical work, more people not only can not help, but also add to the chaos, so Li Bai had to let the mayor of the town persuade most of the people to retreat, leaving only a group of relatively intelligent young people, let them learn to lay bricks and build scaffolding.

The barracks made a mold of foam lightweight bricks in advance, and after the concrete was slurred and foamed, it was made into a large foam brick.

By the time the work is finished, not only have all the walls been built, but even the roof of the color steel tile shed has been laid, which is considered to be officially finished.

However, the finishing of hard installations such as the laying of pipelines and the subsequent soft installation works continued overnight.

By daylight on the third day, Li Bai's tavern and the adjacent school had not only completed the main works, but also been repainted inside and out, spraying white ash twice after putting a layer of putty on the non-slippery foam brick walls.

These meticulous tasks were all done by the engineering team of the Chinese peacekeeping forces, which was fast, good, and neat.

The blacks in the town can barely make do with weaving rattan baskets or making adobe bricks or something, and if they are asked to pull a wire, they will be electrified, and it is not surprising that they will even be short-circuited, and they still have to rely on foreigners to do technical work.

Li Bai's tavern has not yet opened, and it is still training personnel and brewing wine, and it is very busy.

Neighboring schools, however, were filled with students eager for cultural knowledge as soon as volunteer teachers arrived with teaching supplies.

Even the outside of the classroom was crowded with the townspeople.
