Chunting took the train to complete the last leg of the journey back to Beijing, and coincidentally, the delegation of the Jinan government to the executive conference finally arrived in Qingdao by train.

Originally, at this time, the Jiaoji Railway had been built to Gaomi County, with a journey of 110 kilometers, and about 30% was completed, and in order to strengthen the control of Gaomi and Jiaozhou, the East China Government had opened the railway from Qingdao to Gaomi, so the Jinan delegation went to Qingdao by train after a four-day trip and arrived in Gaomi County. The Gaomi Temporary Railway Management Office has also opened a special train for the Jinan delegation and the military to ride.

Zhou Hui and several other secretaries in the delegation are going out for the first time, they usually have a few trips to the door in the house, let alone out of Jinan, and this time they went to Qingdao to register their marriage, for them who were born in maids, it is naturally a rare happy marriage, so they are in a good mood, this time they go out, and everything along the road feels very fresh.

Boarding the train in Jiaozhou, Zhou Hui and others were very excited, because when they took a training course in Jinan, they introduced the train, showed them pictures of the train, and also briefly explained the principle of the train. Of course, Zhou Hui didn't understand these principles, and of course he was very skeptical of this kind of vehicle that could walk like a fly without using cattle and horses and with the power of water and fire, but he didn't dare to express the doubts in his heart. And now I not only saw the real thing, but also sat on it and experienced it myself, and after the train started, I realized that what the teacher said was all true.

Several secretaries are not very old, and the oldest is not more than 20 years old, which is the time of youth, and the biggest difference between the traveler and the men of this era is the respect and love for women. Even if it is a macho traveler in the old time and space, it can be regarded as a model of a good man in this era, so he is quite tolerant of secretaries, and during this time in Jinan, the secretaries and several female travelers are familiar, and they also gathered into several small groups on the train, talking and laughing, eating snacks and drinking drinks, and laughing and laughing along the way.

On the train, Wang Sheng gathered several people from the Jinan government and held a meeting in a small private room to discuss how to secure more projects for Jinan in the first five-year plan of the East China government.

Although Wang Sheng and the others did not know what projects would be in the five-year plan and what principles they would distribute, they did not know anything, but when they boarded the train, Wang Sheng found that a good opportunity was in front of them.

The Jiaoji Railway under construction is certainly one of the main projects of the Five-Year Plan, and the Jiaoji Railway is to Jinan as the end point, naturally related to Jinan, now the East China Government has basically controlled Jinan, it is completely possible to start construction from Jinan, so that the construction of sections at the same time is a common construction process in the construction of highways and railways, so you can strive for it.

However, Wang Sheng set his sights on fighting for the management of the Jiaoji Railway. Qualified to win the management of the Jiaoji Railway, of course, only Qingdao and Jinan, although now Qingdao is equivalent to the capital of the East China Government, and there is a part of the foundation laid by Germany, the degree of modernization and industrial capacity are better than Jinan, but it is located on the Shandong Peninsula, and it is a coastal city, the expansion space of the railway line is limited, and Jinan is located at the intersection of the Shandong Peninsula and the mainland, and is born to be a regional transportation hub center city on land.

From this point of view, Jinan is indeed more suitable for the management of the Jiaoji Railway than Qingdao, which is more conducive to the expansion of the railway line. As for the degree of modernization and industrial capacity, Qingdao is actually ahead of the limit, after all, the German rule in Qingdao has been less than two years, the construction is limited, the only thing is to leave a few factories that have not yet been fully built, so it is not very difficult to catch up.

Once Jinan won the right to manage the Jiaoji Railway, it would be a great boost to tax revenue, economic development, and employment of the industrial population. I just don't know how Qingdao thinks about it, but you can start from this aspect first, at least have a goal. Therefore, after getting on the train, Wang Sheng sorted out this idea, thinking that Jinan still had a considerable grasp of the management of the Jiaoji Railway, so Wang Sheng recruited the staff of the Jinan government to discuss together.

Wang Sheng's suggestion has also been unanimously supported by other personnel, and everyone knows how great benefits it will bring to Jinan if they win the management of the Jiaoji Railway, which is a very typical example of Zhengzhou City in the old time and space. So Wang Sheng dispatched personnel on the train, first of all, of course, to inquire about the East China government's considerations, and what the Qingdao local government thought, and on the other hand, the extremely positive Lalong others.

At four o'clock in the afternoon, the train arrived at Qingdao Station, and after everyone got off the train, the Executive Yuan Office had lined up people to meet them at the train station. Although it is not far from the railway station to the newly built administrative area, it is no more than a 30-minute walk, but two buses were arranged to pick them up, mainly because the gasoline used by the car is guaranteed, so the frequency of use can naturally be increased.

Out of the train station, Zhou Hui's eyes are suddenly not enough, although the scale of Qingdao is not large, but it was ruled by Germany before, the buildings are all European style, and after the traverser took over Qingdao, some buildings were also built, but they are all modern simple line style, but it is completely different from the traditional Chinese architecture, but the road is wide and flat, people and vehicles are separated, each goes its own way, it seems very orderly, of course, it is also a scene that Zhou Hui has never seen.

After entering the administrative district, what amazed Zhou Hui was a large number of tall buildings.

The administrative district is mainly divided into two parts, the administrative area and the accommodation area. At present, the administrative district has completed a total of 6 buildings, the core is the East China Government Administration Building, which is the office space of the Executive Yuan and the departments directly under it, with a total height of 8 floors, a total height of nearly 30 meters, covering an area of about 1,000 square meters; followed by the East China Government Senate House, with a total of 7 floors, covering an area of nearly 1,000 square meters, but half of them are large conference halls, and the area of high-rise buildings is less than 500 square meters; the remaining 4 buildings are office buildings of various ministries and commissions, except for the Military Commission is not here, the remaining 8 departments use one building for every 2 departments, which is enough at present, and will be expanded by 6 buildings in the future, so that each ministry can use one building alone。

The dormitory has completed the construction of 10 buildings, each building is 5 floors high, with a total of 40 single rooms and 10 suites, the single rooms are for single travelers to live, of course, the houses are not enough now, so two people share a room, and the crossers who are married to the natives can be assigned a single room, but only the couples can be assigned to the suite. It is planned to build about 80 such residential buildings in the future, as well as two two-bedroom dormitory buildings, which will be provided to families of three or four, ensuring that each family will have a room of their own.

Whether it is a five-story building or an eight-story building, it is common in the eyes of the traveler, and it is not new even in European countries, but in China in this era, it is a rare tall building, only a tower building or a few famous buildings will have more than three floors, like the Beijing Imperial Palace, even a two-story building is rare. Therefore, more than a dozen multi-storey buildings were concentrated in the administrative area, which of course amazed Zhou Hui and others, and once again impressed by the ability of the traverser.

After getting off the bus, the management of the dormitory was waiting to receive them, register them for a room, and apply for a temporary pass. The principle of room allocation is one room for two people who are single, and one room for husband and wife, of course Wang Sheng wants a single room, and of course other people who return to Qingdao with their secretaries also want a single room.

It took nearly an hour to be busy before someone led Wang Sheng and Zhou Hui to the room. The room assigned to them is on the third floor, it is a hotel-style apartment type, about 30 square meters in size, the furniture is moved from the Ro-Ro ship, with a bathroom, but no kitchen. In fact, there is no separate kitchen in the entire dormitory, and meals are solved in the dining hall of the dormitory.

At this time, it was already more than 5 o'clock in the afternoon, and I definitely couldn't do business, just simply tidy up my things, and then take a shower and go to the restaurant for dinner. Because this road can only rely on walking before arriving in Gaomi County, so the wind and dust are extremely large, and there is no place to take a bath.

However, when Wang Sheng led Zhou Hui to the bathroom, although he had seen many "miracles" caused by traversers along the way, Zhou Hui was still stunned.

The bathroom of the original dormitory is basically decorated in accordance with the style of the old time and space, and the walls and floors are paved with light-colored ceramic tiles, which are of course purchased in this era, and others such as aluminum gusset ceilings, downlights, ventilation fans, washbasins, flush toilets, shower rooms, glass mirrors, faucet showers, hardware accessories, etc., are all removed from the passenger ro-ro ship and used here, basically not much different from the old time and space.

Throughout the district, water and electricity have been connected and hot water has been provided. Now the power supply is with solar panels, and after the Qingdao power plant is built, and then access the power plant circuit, and the hot water is also with solar water heaters, in addition to the construction of signal transmission stations, and so on, in the administrative area can use mobile phone communication and wireless network, although the actual role is not big, but it is better than nothing. And these equipment, naturally, were also dismantled from the Ro-Ro passenger ship. Therefore, after the dormitory was built, many people joked that they had finally crossed back again.

In Zhou Hui's eyes, although the bathroom area is not large, the walls and floors are clean and tidy, the glass and mirrors are crystal clear, and the hardware knots are even more bright and clean.

In fact, if the traveler does a questionnaire survey now, what is the most unsuitable in this era, the answer is estimated to surprise many people, and the first place is not that there is no water and electricity network, but convenience and hygiene. In this era, China's sanitation facilities and habits are quite backward, and there is no special bathroom in the palace, the emperor, the empress, the elder brother, and Gege want to be convenient, and they all use special bedpans, of course, there is a good name in the palace, called "official room", which should be filled with charcoal ash and fragrant wood powder to ensure that there will be no peculiar smell coming out.

The people naturally do not have such good conditions, so the conditions for convenience and sanitation are very bad, and every time the traveler occupies a place, whether it is a village or a city, it takes great manpower and material resources to rectify the conditions for convenience and hygiene. And the problem of convenience often becomes the traverser, and it is the most painful thing for the expatriate traverser. In fact, this is not surprising, even in the old time and space, urban people went to the countryside, and from them to the poor and backward villages, convenience and sanitation problems were the biggest trouble in local life.

Today is Army Day, and I wish the people's army growing stronger and stronger, and the motherland prosperous and strong
