In the afternoon, Li Songchen went to inspect the place, which was a construction site with a relatively late construction progress, and only now that more than 60 percent of the project has been completed, and the construction is also being stepped up at this time.

However, after arriving at the construction site, Li Songchen did not immediately go to the site to inspect the site, but first went to the resettlement camp for returning farmers. Just a short distance from the construction site, a refugee camp-like place is made up of countless tents. Such a camp is set up near each construction site, which not only makes it easier for these returning farmers to work on the construction site, but also makes it easy to manage it with the construction site.

Li Songchen mainly inspected the environmental sanitation situation in the camp. The management of each resettlement camp is quite strict, young men and women have to work on the construction site every day, and the elderly people left behind in the camp are responsible for cooking, boiling water, laundry, cleaning the camp and other work. In addition to the basic rules of conduct, there are many special regulations, such as that drinking water must be boiled in the camp, and that those who work on the construction site must change their clothes every day, wash their old clothes, and boil the dishes and chopsticks for eating.

Temporary toilets and garbage dumping points have been built near each camp, and it is absolutely forbidden to defecate and litter in the camp. It turns out that in the countryside of this era, there is basically no habit of going to the toilet, and women are a little better, because they have to talk about some secrets, while men are more casual, corners, behind big trees, and in the grass, where they can be solved, so in ancient China, there was also the profession of dung picker, which was to collect these things left by urine. And domestic garbage is even more unscrupulous, often just throw it away at the edge of the big house and the corner of the wall. In big cities, sometimes people are organized to clean up, but in small towns or villages, it is only up to the weather to clean up, such as heavy rain or snow.

The purpose of this system is to keep the camp clean and hygienic, so as not to cause an outbreak of infectious diseases, and if it is suitable for infection among the travelers, it will be troublesome. Moreover, it is clearly stipulated that once someone is found to have violated the rules, he will be severely punished: men will be given 30 boards, women will be given 20 boards, and if children are found to defecate in the open, parents will be punished, and each will be punished with 10 boards.

At the beginning, when Li Songchen formulated such punishment regulations, he was also opposed by many people, and some people thought that this method of oppressing the peasants with punishment was not good, and that it should be mainly persuaded and educated, or the punishment should be reduced, at least not in the form of physical harm, such as labor, imprisonment, fines, and other measures, and at the same time, it is not listed in the old time and space, the ancestors did not rely on the punishment system to transform the countryside.

But Li Songchen still insisted on his opinion, because the current time travel group did not have the conditions of the ancestors in the old time and space, after all, he had only traveled to this time and space for more than a month, and his prestige was not enough. And since it is a management system, it is necessary to have punitive measures, and to make the violators pay the necessary price, so that they dare not violate the law again, and there are no punitive measures, or the punitive measures are not effective, then the system will become a dead letter.

As for the non-bodily harm proposed by others, it is basically not feasible, because now the peasants are all working, and it is not cost-effective to use imprisonment not only to provide them with food and drink, but also to have someone to guard them, and the fines are even more unreliable, and these peasants have nothing to be punished. Therefore, only the most suitable and effective board is used.

When the management system of the camp began to be implemented, the peasants in the camp were extremely uncomfortable, after all, this was not only a habit of life for many years, but also had been like this for hundreds of years, and no one wanted to change it, nor did they want to be so troublesome, and many peasants did not believe it. Of course, there were too many superficial articles of this kind during the reign of the imperial court, and this group of overseas Chinese would not be an exception.

On the first day of the announcement of the system, almost every camp caught dozens of violators, and the traversers were also unceremonious, as long as they were caught, they immediately set up in the open space in front of the camp, and hit the board when they fell to the ground.

At this time, all the peasants in the camp were suppressed, and people knew that this group of overseas Chinese was very different from the imperial court, and the rules set down must be respected, and they must not be sloppy. So in the subsequent time, people have also converged a lot, the number of violators suddenly decreased, at least there was no blatant violation, of course, habits are difficult to change, there are always some people who have a fluke mentality, while the management personnel do not pay attention to the violations, some people have escaped, but there are also unlucky people to be caught, so there are always people every day to the board, but much less.

Of course, there are a few people who live for a few days, or after being beaten by the board, they can't stand so many constraints, so they decide to leave the camp, anyway, there are still a lot of dilapidated houses and old houses in the countryside, and they can endure it if they go to live there, and they can also get mixed up by doing odd jobs and doing odd jobs.

For those who were leaving, the traversers did not stop them, and gave them a few steamed buns, and also told them that if they couldn't get along outside, they could come back, but sometimes all the work they had done before was wasted, and they had to start from scratch.

But the vast majority of people still chose to stay, although there were many inconveniences in staying in the camp, but after all, there was a place to live, living in tents without fear of wind and rain, and more importantly, they could eat enough every day. And when you leave the camp, even if you can find a broken house and endure it, how to solve the problem of eating, is odd jobs and odd jobs so easy to do? Besides, I don't know what the market is like outside, so it's good to find a job. Therefore, I had to endure it in the camp.

After living for a long time, the habits gradually came back, and people felt that these systems were not impossible to respect, and the camp was quiet, and the living was comfortable, and the people's spirits were much better.

Li Songchen walked around the camp and was basically satisfied with the environment of the camp, at this time young and middle-aged men and women were working on the construction site, and those who stayed in the camp were old people and children. At this time, the dishes were washed, laundry, and water were boiled, while the children were playing in the camp. Although the conditions in the camp are a little rudimentary, they are in good spirits.

Moreover, Li Songchen also saw with his own eyes that two children wanted to defecate in the corner, but as soon as they took off their pants, they were stopped by other children and yelled at them to go to the toilet outside the camp. It shows that the repressive measures in the previous stage have achieved good results.

On the one hand, to understand the situation in the camp and the mentality of the peasants, so as to arrange the next step, on the other hand, it is also to appease these peasants, so that they can understand the various systems of the resettlement camp, although the system is rigid, but people can communicate, through communication, let everyone understand that these systems are not intended to be difficult with the peasants, but for everyone to live a better life, even if the peasants may not be able to consciously abide by it, but at least in their hearts will not be too resistant。

During this time, Li Songchen often came to the camp, and almost all the old people left behind in the camp knew him, knowing that he was a big official among the overseas Chinese, and Li Songchen was easy to treat people, and there was no arrogance, and he would know the doubts of the peasants, and he would follow them with affection and persuade patiently, and at the same time describe a better future for the peasants, although the peasants were skeptical about the bright future that Li Songchen said, but they would have some hope, and at the same time, they also had a good impression of Li Songchen, and they were all willing to talk to him and tell Li Songchen what they thought in their hearts, so every time they came to the camp to inspect, they could have some gains。

After staying in the camp for about an hour, Li Songchen left the camp and went to the construction site. The person in charge of this construction site is called He Shengdong, in the old time and space, he has been a project manager for more than ten years, and he is also a person with considerable experience in construction organization.

There are more than 20 project managers like He Shengdong among the traversers, because although there were only three construction projects in the Middle East before the crossing, these three construction projects are all super large projects of more than one billion US dollars, so they are divided into more than 20 sub-projects internally, and the project cost of each project is more than 100 million US dollars, and the project managers of each sub-project are actually the backbone.

When Li Songchen came to the construction site, He Shengdong was inspecting the work of making adobe bricks at the entrance of the construction site, and it turned out that the adobe bricks were made on the site of each construction site, and according to the plan, each new village had a threshing floor with an area of more than 1,000 square meters to ensure that each household had at least 10 square meters of threshing land, and now this place is used to make adobe bricks.

Li Songchen saw that the site was densely packed, and it was already full of dried adobe bricks, and it was estimated that there were at least several thousand, even tens of thousands were not impossible. There are also yard bricks, according to the estimates of professionals, about 400 or so adobe bricks are needed to build a standard house. Although Tianjin is a northern region, because it is a seaside city, it belongs to the marine climate, so the temperature is relatively mild, in October, the average temperature is about 15 degrees, in such a realm, the drying time of an adobe brick is about 5-7 days.

Of course, an adobe brick does not have to be completely dry to be used, as long as it reaches seven or eight minutes dry, it can basically maintain enough hardness to use. One is that the adobe brick itself has strong water absorption, and the masonry brick itself should also maintain a certain water content, in the old time and space, whether it is fired brick or steam block brick, it needs to be watered before masonry to increase the moisture content of the brick. This is because if the water content of the brick is low, it will accelerate the absorption of water in the bonded cement mortar, which will make the cement mortar dry and hard too quickly, but it will not achieve the effect of bonding. The construction process of adobe bricks is similar to that of fired bricks and steam block bricks, and it is necessary to maintain a certain moisture content, so there is no need to wait for the bricks to dry before they can be used.
