Road construction plan officially launched...
A large number of migrant workers were ready, and then a large amount of cement was transported from Gaojia Village. Along with the cement, there was also a large group of old workers who were already skilled in mixing cement and paving roads.
As soon as these old workers arrived in the county, they became captains of the road construction team, each responsible for leading a large group of people to build cement roads. Start from scratch and teach the migrant workers step by step.
At the same time, the cement production formula was also handed over to Liang Shixian.
Liang Shixian has wanted this formula for a long time!
In his opinion, building bridges and roads is a good thing that will go down in history. It is the greatest benefit that local officials can bring to the local area, and its benefits can even last for hundreds of years.
But he also knew that to build a cement road of more than 30 miles, the amount of cement required must be astronomical. Of course, it would not be possible to transport it all from Gaojiacun. The Li family gave him the recipe and asked him to think of it himself. Find a way to get some cement out.
The county town also needs to organize craftsmen immediately to make cement according to the recipe.
Liang Shixian quickly took the formula and ran to the official workshop, but the few remaining craftsmen in the county were not interested when they saw the formula in his hand. They were all lazy and didn't want to take a serious look at it.
They don’t want to learn this new thing! There is no need to learn, because their profession is "fixed". The father is a blacksmith, and the son is a blacksmith. The father is a carpenter, and the son is a carpenter. There is a new cementer who is inexplicable. Whoever likes to do it can do it. Anyway, I don’t do it, and it won’t cost extra.
When Li Daoxuan saw this, he couldn't help but shake his head secretly. By the way, he almost forgot that the craftsmen here in the county still lived at the lowest level of society and had no motivation at all.
Seeing Liang Shixian yelling around alone, the craftsmen rolled their eyes and played cold-blooded games with the county magistrate.
Daoxuan is funny: I gave you the cement formula just to let you feel the shortcomings of the craftsman system, and now you feel it.
Hey hey hey.
Half an hour later, Liang Shixian returned to the county government office in despair and disgrace, and sat down slumped with a look of annoyance on his face.
Master Shaoxing came over from the side: "Dong Weng, what's wrong with you?
Liang Shixian said sadly: "The craftsmen don't want to make cement. They say they don't know how to do it and they don't want to learn. They also say that their ancestors have determined what kind of craftsman they are. They can't do the work they shouldn't do. I'll kill them." , they just put on a look like "Why don't you kill me?"
Master Shaoxing smiled bitterly: "This...
Liang Shixian: "In your opinion, how should this matter be resolved?"
Master Shaoxing shook his head: "I have little talent and little knowledge."
Just as the two of them were talking about this, they heard a report from their subordinates: "Mr. Wang from the bookstore wants to see you."
Liang Shixian perked up: "Please!
Soon, Mr. Wang came in and hugged Liang Shixian: "Your Excellency, the second batch of cement we transported from Gaojia Village has arrived, but... the third batch will be much less, because Gaojia Village The population is very small, and there are not many manpower available to make cement. Even if we use our full strength, we can't make much cement, so... we still have to rely on the county magistrate to make more cement."
When Liang Shixian heard this, he felt sad: "This is terrible! I am temporarily unable to solve the problem of cement manufacturing. Maybe our road construction work will be shelved midway.
Zi: "Ah? If that's the case, wouldn't our work-for-relief plan be doomed?"
Mr. Wang had already learned this from Tianzun, and he just came to tease Liang Shixian and pretend to be surprised.
Liang Shixian: "Alas! I don't know what to do."
Mr. Wang pretended to think, but in fact he reorganized in his mind the Tianzun's decree that Gao Yiye relayed to him. After sorting it out, he laughed and said: "If this is the case, then I have a plan to solve the problem of cement. "
Liang Shixian was overjoyed: "Sir, what's your clever idea?"
Mr. Wang: "Our Li family can invest in building a Chengcheng cement factory next to the county seat. We will use this factory as the main body to recruit cement workers from the craftsmen. As long as we give them serious wages, the craftsmen will have nothing to worry about.
Liang Shixian was a little embarrassed: "There are almost no shift craftsmen in Chengcheng County. The rest are all live-in craftsmen. They have to work and cannot leave at will. How can they work in a cement factory?"
Mr. Wang: "Your Excellency, you are the head of a county. If you don't keep an eye on the craftsmen, who else will?
As long as you close your eyes and pretend not to see it, in order to make money to survive and survive natural disasters, the craftsmen will definitely go to the cement factory to work. Anyway...the official workshops have nothing to do recently, right? What's the use of keeping them? "
As soon as these words came out, Liang Shixian became embarrassed.
really! There is no work to be done in the official workshops, and the craftsmen who live there are currently living in a state of eating and waiting to die. It's better to turn a blind eye and let them go out to work. After all, the craftsman household system is very problematic. Why should I be so stubborn? If cement cannot be produced, it will affect the large-scale food-for-work program.
"Okay!" Liang Shixian: "Then who will open this cement factory? I am not good at it, and the name of the court is not easy to use.
Mr. Wang said: "Just find a squire with a better reputation and control that squire behind the scenes to start it."
Liang Shixian turned his head and looked at Master Shaoxing with his eyes.
The master immediately said: "I have someone in mind. This person's name is Teng Yifeng. He was originally a contractor. If anyone wanted to build a pavilion, rockery, build a house or attic, they would find him, and he would then hire him. It was built by craftsmen. This person has a very good relationship with the craftsmen, and they all trust him. Because of the severe drought for many years, this man has lost his livelihood. Now he is looking for ways to take the lead in opening a cement factory. We are behind the scenes. , this can be done.”
Liang Shixian nodded: "Call him here. Since he has a good relationship with the craftsmen, let him come forward to open this cement factory.
Master quickly went to make arrangements.
Mr. Wang said goodbye and walked out of the county government office and turned down a street. Gao Yiye was already waiting here. Mr. Wang smiled softly and said: "I am fortunate to have fulfilled the decree of the Supreme Lord."
Gao Yiye smiled: "Tianzun has already seen it.
Mr. Wang: “Now we have brought over some of Gaojiacun’s ways of doing things.”
Gao Yiye laughed again: "Yes, Mr. Tianzunxiu said, if we do this, it won't be long before the county seat looks like Gaojia Village. When the time comes, Lord County Master draws his sword and looks around, and finds that his county seat has become If you don’t recognize him, you will definitely be shocked.
Mr. Wang laughed loudly: “I don’t know when the county magistrate will realize that the county town has changed inexplicably, hahahaha.
