470 The big plans of the industry bigwigs
Why only until the end of November?
Because by that time, the new season of sugar cane and sugar beets will be harvested, and the sugar mill will be able to produce sugar, and by that time, the glass factory should have accumulated a lot of product, so the end of November or the beginning of December is the approximate departure time for the second trade of Nicole and Pride.
During this time, the most laborious fields gradually entered the stage of slack, and the crews were also at home, so the heads of the Supreme Executive Council discussed and decided that they should make full use of this relatively abundant labor time to make some big moves.
By then, the new season of sugar cane and sugar beets will be harvested, the sugar mills will be able to produce sugar, and the glass mills will have a lot of produce by then.
The point is that during that time, the most labor-intensive fields gradually entered the leisure time, and the crew members were also at home, so the idea of the Supreme Executive Council was clear: to make full use of this two-month period of relatively abundant labor to do something.
So at the meeting, all the industrial bigwigs put forward their own detailed plans.
First of all, Mr. Zhao's chemical group, they proposed a plan to expand the production scale of the glass factory, and planned to install another melting furnace in the cave to double the glass production.
Mr. Zhao emphasized that glassware and glass mirrors are the main products of this overseas trade, and they are also the trade products with the largest added value, and of course they should also be the key work during this time. However, another prerequisite is that the Moon River Hydropower Station can be connected to the grid in time to generate electricity.
Not only that, the chemical industry group also put forward the long-awaited installation plan of the coal coke dry distillation production line - this project is not only related to the start of organic chemical industry, related to the drug research and development of chemical and pharmaceutical laboratories in the cave, but also directly related to the current product quality of glassware and glass mirrors.
The members of the chemical team have not forgotten the various practical difficulties they encountered when they scratched their ears and cheeks and tried their best to do the silver mirror reaction a few months ago.
They are determined to take this primary coal dry distillation project as a starting point, so that their chemical industry will be on the right track, and lay a solid foundation for the development of coal coke chemical industry, triacid and dialkali and seawater chemical industry in the next step. At the end of the plenary meeting, the two items received a considerable number of votes in favour.
In addition to the chemical group, the metallurgical group proposed a limited but important development plan, and Holley, on behalf of the metallurgical group, proposed an experimental production plan for the iron-smelting furnace and pyrite boiling furnace at the plenary meeting.
The specific plan is that they plan to at least set up a miniature cupola and a miniature boiling furnace in the cave before the end of the year, so that many experimental production activities can begin.
The plan of the metallurgical group was enthusiastically supported by the chemical group, and said that the micro-boiling furnace for calcining pyrite in the cave could be installed in the factory area of the glass factory, so that the chemical group and the metallurgical group could carry out cooperative production, which could produce both sulfuric acid and iron smelting, which could be described as killing two birds with one stone, and sulfuric acid and its by-products were very much needed in both glass factories and sugar factories. Therefore, Holley also proposed that the iron-smelting furnace should also be installed in the Xiliu Estuary Industrial Zone.
The members of the metallurgical group are now eager to try, they think that the various metallurgical equipment in the cave has been idle for too long, and should be installed and put into trial production as soon as possible, especially this time the fleet brought back a lot of metal ores and various metal semi-finished products from Sulu......
As for the mechanical group headed by Boss Luo, they originally planned to open up a place in the cave to build a mechanical maintenance factory, but after the doctors insisted that Boss Luo built this maintenance plant outside the gate of the cave on the grounds that noise and pollution affect the research of chemical and pharmaceutical laboratories, this requirement is obviously reasonable, but it undoubtedly increases the infrastructure workload and requires additional labor.
In addition, Wang Xue put forward a plan to install a large winch in the red wharf, this winch is one of the mining equipment in the cave, Wang Gong believes that it is better to put it on the wharf to let it have been idle in the cave, and she also put forward a very exciting plan: from now until the end of next year, take out the ship steel in the cave to assemble one or two Pride sister ships.
Therefore, this winch will be an important part of the slipway, and it is also the key equipment for cargo hoisting at the wharf.
Wang Xue also warned everyone that with the development of trade at sea in the future, the cargo throughput capacity of the red wharf needs to be greatly enhanced, because our limited labor force should not be wasted on the manpower of the wharf to move goods.
I have to admit that because it involves shipbuilding and labor saving, Wang Gong's plan has won the hearts of the crew, and among all the above projects, probably only Wang Gong's terminal freight project has received the most votes in favor at the beginning, and has also won everyone's unanimous approval.
However, everyone was immediately poured cold water on a report, this report was about energy, and the reporter was Cao Limei.
At the meeting, the sister submitted a long written report to the plenary meeting, she asked to make full use of this leisure time, the labor force is drawn out to dig coal, this plan is huge, Cao Limei said, the need to mine is not only the good coal of the chicken nest mine, but also the nearby lignite and peat, the sister strongly appealed at the meeting, lignite and peat are not only the raw materials of the brick and tile factory cement plant, but also the raw materials of the coal chemical industry, if it is processed into pulverized coal and mixed with good coal, it is still a good fuel, because in the foreseeable half a year, Not to mention the increase in coal consumption in the chemical industry and metallurgy, it is obvious that the fuel for the fleet to sail in two months will also be prepared, right? This time the fleet will go farther, so our coal storage capacity is obviously insufficient at the moment.
Therefore, you should put aside your various development plans for the time being, and dig coal for me honestly, except for the sugar factory and glass factory, which are related to the production of trade goods, and other projects of yours will be talked about after the fleet goes to sea.
Well, people who have finally calmed down are starting to talk seriously about the issue of sending labor to dig coal, because it is a serious problem.
Then everyone found that not only coal, but also other minerals are also very heavy mining tasks, and it is necessary to increase the input of labor, such as the need to further build various mining sites, including pyrite, coal mines, limestone quarries, open-pit kaolin clay, etc., as well as semi-dry salt marshes on several nearby islands, where halide minerals are important raw materials for Mr. Zhao and their soda ash and caustic soda, whether it is glass or sugar, these chemical raw materials are needed.
Cao Limei also stressed that all these minerals are needed not only for sugar factories and glass factories, but also for cement factories and brick factories, and even more so for metallurgy.
As a result, everyone discussed and discussed, and they all thought that Cao Limei's report was very important, but the projects proposed by those industrial bigwigs seemed to be indispensable.
In the end, on behalf of the Supreme Executive Committee, Sun Lao proposed that since this is the case, then everyone will work hard for a while.
So, in the following two months, although many people were indeed liberated from various construction sites, during that time, everyone was actually not idle at all, and during these two months, the density of various work arrangements was so large that it even affected Gu Jin's sailing training.
