Chapter 41 Northeast Trip Investigation Layout (2)
Wang Yongliang's depiction of the prospect made Chang Bing also excited, but after all, he was a character who had been in the rivers and lakes for a long time, and would not regard painting cakes as food that could satisfy his stomach, although Wang Yongliang had a successful experience in opening a flour mill, but he did not think that what Wang Yongliang said could be easily realized. Therefore, he is cautiously optimistic, and of course this has to do with the historical limitations of his vision.
"Brother Wang, I'm a rough person, I don't understand what you're talking about, and I can't see that far, but I will do what you tell me to do. Although Chang Bing is not so optimistic, this does not affect his loyalty.
As soon as he heard this, Wang Yongliang knew that in order to completely subdue his heart, he had to rely on his own achievements. He doesn't need the regular soldiers to understand, he only needs his ability and loyalty, and he believes that after a long time, the permanent soldiers will be completely restored.
So, he smiled and said, "I can understand your caution. I'll start with my train of thought, and if things really go the way I said, you might as well have a number. Because, Yin Qiushi, I want to leave it to you for the time being. ”
Chang Bing wanted to speak, but Wang Yongliang waved his hand and continued: "Let's not talk about the others first, let's talk about the current first." Tomorrow I will go to the mountains with my aunt and her family, and you can find out the situation here first. The focus is on the amount of flour used in Yinqiu City, the supply channels of timber, and so on. We'll talk more about that tomorrow night. ”
"Okay. I'll do this tomorrow, you're tired from the day, rest early. After Chang Bing finished speaking, he went to Zhao Lan's house.
Yongliang also rested and did not mention it.
Early the next morning, Wang Yongliang got up and ran back and forth along the forest road, found a no-man's land to practice Tai Chi, returned to the Yulanxiang Hotel to wash up, and Zhao Lan delivered breakfast to his room.
Breakfast is very simple, just two steamed buns, a plate of small pickles, two eggs and a bowl of corn ballast, although simple, but very suitable for Yongliang's appetite.
As soon as he finished eating, Zhu Yushan came to the restaurant and asked Shang Yongliang to go to Dongshan to see the primeval forest.
Wang Yongliang went out to take a look, except for his uncle Zhu Huchen who didn't come because he went to work, he was still the original team from yesterday. Seeing that Yongliang had arrived, the group marched towards Dongshan.
When he came to Dongshan, Wang Yongliang was immediately surprised by the power of nature.
Walking into this primeval forest, all kinds of ancient trees of various shapes come into view, which is dizzying. Some of the aerial roots emitted from the trunks and branches of the towering trees pierce into the ground from mid-air, gradually thickening, and become the pillar roots supporting the canopy, forming a peculiar landscape of a single tree forming a forest; In addition, the "hanging garden" with a variety of plants such as ferns, lichens, and mosses is also a unique landscape of primeval forests.
Wang Yongliang believes that all words and sentences cannot express the shock brought by this primeval forest, no skilled craftsman can make that kind of spectacle in a thousand forms, and only the power of nature can achieve such harmony and beauty. For a moment, Wang Yongliang's heart was full of awe of nature.
The two "bottles" ran happily in the forest, "This tree is so big!" and "It's so beautiful here!" from time to time the two exclaimed from their mouths.
Wang Yongliang thought to himself: "Although the economy is not very developed here, it is really a livable city. If you have the opportunity to build a house here and come here every year to escape the heat, it is simply perfect. ”
At this time, they had gone deep into the forest, and everyone felt a gloomy feeling, and they no longer dared to go inside.
Zhu Yushan said: "What we see is only the beautiful side of the forest, in fact, I don't know how many people die here every year. ”
"Why?" asked Yongliang.
"Why? It's hard to find here. We don't dare to go inside when we walk here, in fact, it's very big, this is a large forest with a radius of more than 1,000 square kilometers, where is this? Especially in winter, when the snow covers the mountains, if you kill someone here, where will you find it?!" Yongliang thought deeply.
After the group went down the mountain, it was close to noon, ate a little casually in a small restaurant, and visited a few scenic spots, and admired the natural beauty of Yinqiu City, Yongliang, which is absolutely not seen in the hometown.
In the evening, everyone returned to the Magnolia Xiang Hotel, Zhao Lan prepared a table of food as usual, and everyone had a full meal. After eating, Yongliang sent everyone away, and then returned to his room to listen to Chang Bing's report on the situation he investigated today.
"Brother Wang, the price of flour is indeed what you said, two yuan a catty. According to my research, there is a large shortage of flour, mainly because most of the population here comes from Kannai and is used to eating noodles. However, due to the specific climate of Yinqiu City, the wheat yield is extremely low, only about two or three hundred tons per year, and the population of Yinqiu City is about two million, which obviously cannot meet the needs. I estimate that the gap is about 1,000 tons, and if according to your judgment, the life of the common people will get better and better in the future, then this gap will further increase. So, I'm very optimistic about the future of flour. ”
"Speaking of timber, this is a forest area, and supply is not a problem. I asked, and the wood processing factory was only forty yuan a piece, and it was open for sale. If we use a large amount, the price may be cheaper. I think the best use of Korean pine is to use furniture, or to beat doors and windows, as beams and purlins are not enough. Therefore, it is best not to sell logs, let's sell Fangzi wood, the price is cheap, and it is easy to sell when it is transported to the customs. After Chang Bing introduced the situation, he stopped talking and asked Wang Yongliang to digest the information.
After pondering for a while, Wang Yongliang said: "The situation you said is similar to my original judgment, and to a certain extent, it is more ideal. The main problem now is the transportation problem, and it is not a problem to transport flour from Kannai to here, and I have solved it. I don't know if I can get wagons here to transport wood to the customs?"
Chang Bing shook his head and said embarrassedly: "It's not good, I don't have anything to do with the station." ”
When Wang Yongliang heard Chang Bing say this, it was not surprising that he could understand how difficult this matter was. If it weren't for his chance to meet and recognize Wang Xiangsui's aunt and nephew, if he wanted to get the wagon at the Shuibei City Railway Station, it would have to take a lot of effort, which is beyond doubt.
However, the train transportation channel must be opened, otherwise it will seriously affect his next plans.
Yongliang groaned: "Old Chang, do you know who this person is in charge of the wagon dispatch now?"
"I only know that his surname is Jia, his name is Jia Changqing, and he is the head of the station dispatching section. Nothing else is known. Chang Bing replied.
"Tomorrow you find someone to inquire about his basic situation. ”
"Okay. Chang Bing agreed.
Nothing was said all night.
Early the next morning, the Chang soldiers went out. After breakfast, Wang Yongliang thought: "I don't know if this Jia Changqing can handle it yet, but the flour matter must be done." I can't hide this from my aunt anymore, I have to tell her. After thinking about it, he got up and walked to his aunt's house.
When I arrived at my aunt's house, I saw that only my aunt and mother were there, and I said to myself, "It's just right, it's really hard to say that there are other people here."
"Auntie, I want to set up a flour sales office in Yinqiu City and sell the flour we produce here, do you think it's okay?" Yongliang first asked Qi Dongxia's opinion.
"I think it's okay. There are many people in the customs here, and they are not used to eating rice, and they still like to eat pasta, but the climate here is not good for growing wheat, and the yield is very low, so the demand for flour is still very large. Qi Dongxia's brain is very useful, and she made the overall situation clear in just a few words.
"Good. I think it's okay for you to arrange it this way. I'm going to let Chang Bing be the manager, he is a little older, and he can also walk in the society, and he is very loyal to me for the time being, but I don't know after a long time. I see that Brother Yushan is not going to school now, so I asked him to be a deputy manager, first, to practice and practice, and he can carry a heavier burden in the future, but now he is obviously not good. Second, I have more eyes to stare at, after all, this is our own business, and it is indispensable to guard against others. Wang Yongliang said.
"Okay, that's a good thing. If you hadn't arranged it that way, I'd have wanted him to kill the pigs. "In his previous life, Zhu Yushan killed pigs, but now it seems that his life trajectory has changed.
"I give him a hundred dollars a month, but I don't give him shares. I give you 10% of the shares. Wang Yongliang said.
"Give me shares?!" Qi Dongxia was a little surprised, so she asked in surprise.
"Yes, Auntie. ”
"I won't do anything, I can't take your shares for nothing. No, no, no!" Qi Dongxia said very uprightly and resolutely.
