Chapter 101 Daqing Oilfield
It's funny to say, Chen Xuan, who is in China, the world's most populous country, with the development of Harbin's industrial layout, a number of projects were launched at the same time, Chen Xuan actually found that the manpower was insufficient, according to the information left by the Qing court officials who had run away, the population of the entire Harbin City was only a few hundred thousand, and this time the plague alone Harbin City died by thousands, and Zhenhua began to have too little population pressure in Harbin.
Sun Hongye's continuous suppression of bandits provided a lot of manpower for the development of Harbin, but with the extermination of more than a dozen bandits by the Harbin New Army, the reputation of the New Army also came out, and the bandits began to run out one after another, so that Sun Hongye had to run farther away to suppress the bandits.
For example, the powerful factions in Ningguta and Aihui now saw that the new army in Harbin was like the autumn wind sweeping away the leaves to suppress most of the bandits, and they also slowly began to soften to the governor's yamen, and it was impossible to hand over the rights, but they did not dare to blatantly resist the governor's orders as before, and the taxes that should be paid were also paid, and the grain that should be paid was also sent over on schedule, and invited the new army to go to their own territory to suppress the bandits.
Chen Xuan was overjoyed at this time, with the invitation of these local powerful factions, the new army can enter these cities openly, Chen Xuan wants them to experience that it is easy to invite God and send God, and the new army has these people to pay and provide food, and the supply does not have to worry about Zhenhua at all, and it can also recruit new soldiers in these places, and at the same time, Zhenhua's caravan has a safe guarantee to enter these cities, and it has become much easier to recruit workers for the major factories in Harbin.
Later, according to Chen Xuan's understanding, these local bigwigs are also helpless, and now the bandits in Harbin have run away, where can they go, naturally around these nearby cities, which makes the various places that are already suffering from bandits even worse, some cities don't even dare to go out of the city, and the manor outside the city can only be robbed in vain.
The green battalion soldiers are good at robbing and extorting the common people, but when it comes to suppressing bandits, which green battalion soldiers are not inextricably linked with the bandits? Bandits? It's better to change the topic and be friendly.
Chen Xuan didn't have the energy to worry about these old forces, and he had an official letter from the local government pleading to send troops, so he secretly instructed Sun Hongye not to exterminate all the bandits around the city at once, and also play a trick of raising his own dignity, and try to squeeze out these rich people, so that these rich people could not do without the new army.
At the same time, he also asked Cai Yuanpei to issue a Zhao'an official document to let the remnants of the bandits in Harbin go down the mountain and surrender within a time limit, and the government can no longer pursue the previous things.
If it was before, the bandits on the mountain would naturally not take the official documents seriously, but now in just over a month, the new army has exterminated more than a dozen famous bandits, and the bandits have to think about it, and I heard that Harbin today is not the same as before, even if the little minions go down the mountain, they don't have to worry about having something to eat, and if there are people with any skills, they are living very nourishingly.
And the bandit leaders are all wealthy figures, even if the government does not arrange for them to go to the new army, it is appropriate to be a rich man, which is like now, obviously with thousands of dollars in his pocket, but he lives the life of a poor middle peasant.
So there began to be small bandits who came down the mountain to try, and the government also believed in its word, not only did not pursue the previous crimes against these small bandits, but also arranged jobs for them, and they did not have to worry about food and housing.
With an example, more people began to run down the mountain, many bandits are actually residents of Harbin, even if they are not, they have more or less some relationship, now that life is better, they are naturally unwilling to let their relatives and friends go to that kind of day to lick the blood, maybe one day it will be exterminated, at that time I was afraid that it would be too late to cry, Wang Mazi and many bandit leaders are still hanging on the crossroads outside the city.
More and more bandits went down the mountain, bringing new blood to Zhenhua's industrial layout, and various projects began to operate, and there were busy people inside and outside the city, and what puzzled the bandits who went down the mountain was that the officials of the governor's yamen also appeared at various construction sites, and even the governor Cai Daren practiced it, which was the first time in the world!
"Yiyang, you said that the Daqing oil field still hasn't been found, we have rummaged through all the information in the yamen, even each village has been carefully checked, and we have also asked the caravan that went south and north, I didn't know that there was such a place as Daqing, you gave a place name, let us go to find oil?"
Speaking is from the University of Michigan to study petroleum engineering geological engineer Liu Fangcheng, after he came to the Northeast, Chen Xuan's memory in Heilongjiang Province there is a famous Daqing oil field, when he was in primary school there is a text called "Iron Man Wang Jinxi", now in Harbin, how can Chen Xuan let go of this huge cornucopia, and with the development of domestic industry, always rely on imports is not a way.
"When I was in France, I heard a French missionary say that the location was in Heilongjiang Province, and it was said that it was not too far from Harbin, but the missionary died of illness not long after, and he didn't leave any specific clues."
Chen Xuan began to lie again, with his poor knowledge of history and geography, how could he know that the name Daqing was named after the oil field was found after the founding of New China, how could there be a place in Daqing during this period?
"There's no way around it, I think we're still honestly looking for it ourselves, since the place is in Heilongjiang, it can't run away, I'll lead the team out of the city tomorrow, although Heilongjiang is big, we always have a time to find it."
"That's the only way, I'll tell Du Xiao and let him bring a company of soldiers to protect you, you see what else you need, I'll try to help you allocate it."
"We don't need anything, we have all kinds of equipment, just prepare some camping things and food supplies."
"Okay, Fang Cheng, you go back and prepare first, I'll let Du Xiao prepare, let his people report to you in the afternoon, and you can arrange it yourself when the time comes."
sent Liu Fangcheng away, Qian Xia came again, now Qian Xia's university plan still exists on paper, Chen Xuan's delay and delay made this good gentleman not satisfied, although he knew that there was a shortage of manpower, but seeing that other departments were in full swing, his own department was still guarding those primary and secondary schools, how could it be like this, education did not wait for people.
Hearing Qian Xia's complaints, Chen Xuan had to smile bitterly, he is now back to the state when Zhenhua started his business, with less than three hours of rest a day, and he really can't help it, high-end talents are needed everywhere, how can anyone allocate it to Qian Xia.
"Yiyang, is there such a thing as you, isn't the medical school of Brother Xinglian (Wu Liande) open, there are manpower to support Brother Xinglian, there is no support for our other schools, my colleagues in the bureau are scolding me for being a vegetarian meal, if you don't give it to people again, I can only take the blame and resign."
"Brother Deqian, I didn't say that, the teachers of the Star Alliance Brother Medical College were all found by himself, I haven't supported anyone, and I haven't paid no attention to your side, but you have also seen the current situation, one person is used for two, where is the manpower for you!"
"You mean I'm going to find someone myself?"
Qian Xia couldn't believe it.
"What else should I do, Brother Deqian, you are also a person who has returned from abroad, and you also have a wide range of friends, and there are a lot of old classmates, do you think this will work, I will first assign the school place to your Education Bureau, and the funds will also be transferred, you first build the teaching building, and when your school is built, the teacher should also come, isn't this a matter of killing two birds with one stone?"
It's easy to say, I finally fooled Qian Xia away, and after dealing with the official business of the day, it was already three o'clock in the afternoon, Chen Xuan was ready to go to various construction sites to inspect, and as soon as he got out of the study, he saw Xia Yunru.
"Aren't you on the construction site of the automobile factory, why did you come here, aren't you afraid that your boss Xu will deduct your wages?"
"My salary is from Zhenhua, not Hongyuan!"
Xia Yunru returned to her usual cold style, the lively and cheerful Xia Yunru who was in Nanyang was gone again, Chen Xuan touched his nose and silently took over the itinerary in Xia Yunru's hand, and now Xia Yunru has returned to her previous role as a secretary.
Seeing that Chen Xuan was about to go out, the new escort captain Jiang Zhongqi shouted, and about 20 fully armed and energetic sturdy sergeants quickly jumped onto a truck assigned to the escort team, Jiang Zhongqi quickly drove Chen Xuan's off-road vehicle over, asked for the destination, and the two cars drove out of the governor's yamen together.
The governor's yamen is very large, and Cai Yuanpei's family members are not here, so many departments are now working here, and Chen Xuan also eats and lives here, which greatly improves the work efficiency of the governor's yamen.
Chen Xuan first went to see the soon-to-be-completed hydroelectric power plant, which is now already installing and debugging equipment, and the person in charge is transferred from the East China Power Grid, which is also a key project of Zhenhua, so the progress has been very fast.
It is expected that five units will be installed in this place, and after the completion will provide electricity to the major factories and Harbin, Chen Xuan does not understand these mechanical equipment, but this is the art of leadership, Chen Xuan often visits these places to inspect, which represents the importance of Zhenhua to the project, and the engineers of the power plant are not working hard?
After inspecting the power plant, Chen Xuan and others went to the steel factory and arsenal, and finally went to Feng Ru's aircraft factory.
But soon Chen Xuan knew that he was wrong, the aircraft design is not as low as the car design requirements, as long as it looks good, and it is not a racing car, so the impact will not be great, and what wind tunnel test and what damping coefficient of the aircraft design made Chen Xuan stunned, but fortunately, some of Chen Xuan's suggestions did have some truth, which saved a little face.
