Section 168 Timber

Under the "mediation" of Zhao Yinggong, the Haitian left the Qiantang River the next day and returned to the sea. During this period, the Hangzhou government gave some rice, chickens and ducks, vegetables and fruits to "practice". Seeing the Haitian gradually disappear with black smoke, the officials and gentry in the city breathed a sigh of relief, as for the people, the sudden arrival and sudden disappearance of the Haitian served as a topic of conversation for several days, and slowly no one mentioned it anymore.

After Gao Xuan got four taels of silver, he once again walked into Wanbi Bookstore. But this time, he became a contracted writer at Wanbi Bookstore. Zhao Yinggong began to build a writing team for Wanbi Bookstore Publishing House, and created a magazine "Tianshui Life Weekly" close to social hotspots.

In the early morning, as soon as the sky was bright, Lingao woke up to the sound of air flutes.

Hailin yawned a few times, and from under the pillow he pulled out the watch that had been wound up by the secretary of life last night, and it was already six o'clock. He reluctantly got up from the chuáng, brushed his teeth and washed his face in the bathroom full of blue and white porcelain and glaze red, the toothbrush was a locally made horsehair toothbrush, the toothpaste was gone, and it had become a "refined bamboo salt", the towel was still a product of the old time and space, and the locally made towel was still not as good as the product of the old time and space in terms of appearance and texture.

He was neatly dressed under the clothes of a life secretary, and the so-called neat clothes were nothing more than a set of locally made blue cloth overalls. Hai Lin sat down at the Huanghuali table in the living room and dining room, and a set of fine Chenghua official kiln porcelain tableware was already placed on the table, which was one of the countless trophies captured in the Battle of the Pearl River Estuary. At that time, some of them were auctioned among the senators.

Breakfast is steamed buns, porridge and two plates of "Heavenly Kitchen Special Pickles" made by the life secretary. Buns are a rarity in Lingao. Lingao has just started to promote wheat cultivation for less than three years, and there are not many ordinary farmers who grow wheat except for the land directly under the farm. Flour is a precious ingredient. Except for a part of the supply to the catering enterprises under the Ministry of Commerce to make high-end dim sum for the return of circulation coupons, the rest is for the elders to eat. Even so, ravioli, noodles, buns, bread and biscuits are still rare to find on the tables of the patriarchs.

Due to the lack of meat, the office only supplied pork or lamb to the senators on Saturdays, and chicken on Wednesdays and Fridays.

So Hailin ate the buns today with bean paste filling. Hailin was not interested in sweet steamed buns, but he was even less interested in green cabbage and dried bean curd buns or steamed buns stuffed with cabbage vermicelli. The cafeteria is said to serve deep-fried fish buns, but I don't know what it tastes like?

"When will the big meat buns be open ......to eat," Hailin muttered as he ate the bean paste buns.

In Hailin, this bun is not very good, far less than the old lady in the canteen, the dough is a little sticky and not fluffy enough, and the noodles are not good. However, for a living secretary from the southern region, it is not satisfactory.

"Chief, your schedule." Seeing that his buns were almost finished, the life secretary gave him a work manual for Lingao's local production. The daily work arrangements are recorded day by day, some of which are notices from various departments, and some are various affairs in Hailin's own enterprise.

He ate steamed buns and flipped through his work schedule. Now the life of the elders of Lingao is extremely stressful, the daily work schedule is already very heavy, and the engine action has brought endless pressure to the production department, and the planning institute is like a giant beast with a good appetite, endlessly asking the industrial and agricultural departments to provide a large number of sacrifices.

As for the work arrangement, Hailin has a grudge against the executive committee. In the past, the Central Government Council headed by Ma Qianzhu did not attach much importance to forestry, believing that the combination of coal and iron could dominate the world. As a result, the forestry sector has a low status, a low ranking in the allocation of resources and manpower, and a very poor salary, but a heavy workload. Now the forestry department has been assigned to the manufacturing director department, but the situation has not improved much, as Wu Kuangming said: without Ma Qianzhuo, there is Niu Qianzhuo.

Who is this Niu Qianzhu? In Hailin's view, all the patriarchs who consciously or unconsciously ignored the importance of the timber industry, forestry and modern industry were unfortunately, and there were still quite a few such people in the Senate.

"These stupid Bs are blind conductors, and they don't know the role of wood in modern industry." Hailin thought hatefully: "One day I will have to replace all these stupid Bs." ”

I didn't think carefully about who would replace Hailin after the change, but some people hinted that they could do better than them, but Hailin didn't have much hope for this.

After breakfast, Hailin hurriedly went out. He got on an electric bicycle and drove on the Bairen-Bopu road.

The wood factory is one of the earliest enterprises established by the Senate, and it was originally located in Bopu in consideration of the proximity to the timber production area, until recently, a considerable part of the timber supply of Lingao still came from the mangrove forest near Bopu and the Li District of Lingao and was convenient for foreign timber imports.

However, mangrove resources are limited, and indiscriminate deforestation will affect the ecological environment of the coastline and destroy coastal fishery resources, so when the mangrove forests in Bo Kou have not completely disappeared, the forestry department has to consider alternative timber sources.

There are several directions to the source of wood in Lingao. For now, Lingao's Li district supplies most of the timber they need, and the cost of obtaining timber is very low. The commercial sector was able to exchange only cheap table salt and a small amount of iron for large quantities of wood and bamboo and rattan products. This is followed by those from Sanya and the mainland.

Due to the increasing demand for timber, the Vietnamese Trading Company under the Ministry of Colonial Trade recently opened up a trade route for importing timber from Vietnam, partly by **ō shipping and partly by ships of the Dutch East India Company.

Timber imported from the mainland and Vietnam is large in quantity and good quality, and there are some good species of timber but the supply quantity is not stable - it involves the problem of sea capacity.

There are more raw materials, but the processing capacity is far from keeping up. The first thing Hailin did today was to go to the freight yard of Bopu Port to check the detention of imported timber, and the Planning Institute asked him to submit a report to determine how many days of production the current timber reserves would be sufficient to determine the amount of timber imported and harvested next month.

In the timber yard dedicated to the Ministry of Forestry in Bopu, there are now about 20,000 raw timber in stock. It's a mountain of piles. But this wood is not enough.

Most of the timber was piled up in stacks, covered with branches and leaves to keep the moisture on, and naturalized workers kept the stacks watering on the piles to keep the wood moist.

Hailin casually took a few stacks of wood, and the state of preservation was okay. Among them, there are many hardwoods, including lychee wood, ironwood, which are now used in the military industry instead of oak, and various precious woods, most of which are imported from Vietnam.

But this wood is not enough. He calculated for himself that the timber needed to build a camp for 10,000 people alone was staggering. Just 10,000 pieces of 1,100 chuáng will cost 180 square meters of wood, and if the wood is a pine tree with a diameter of 5 cm at the bottom and a height of 4 meters, then one side of wood will need about thirty or forty trees, a total of 5,400 trees.

According to the standard of 20 people in each house, the area is about 457a, and there are 500 standard rooms and 500 beams with a diameter of more than m. If you use a wide tile of 40 cna, you need 40 -10 nna rafters for a house, and 560 rows are 20,000 pieces.

Building a camp for 10,000 people would require nearly 30,000 trees to be cut down, transported, preliminarily treated, dried, and cut. It's unimaginably large. It would have been the 17th century, except that the Senate had a few chainsaws brought from the old plane. All the lumberjacks in Shijie are using axes and large saws. The production efficiency is low. It may take a considerable period of time to supply sufficient raw materials.

According to Hailin's estimate: It seems that the Planning Institute now has a way to mobilize enough raw materials, and it depends on whether he has the ability to process them.

He spun around, estimating the current daily processing capacity of the woodworking factory, calmly mounted his electric bicycle, and drove towards the woodworking factory with thick smoke.

Hailin is responsible for the production of all wood objects in the entire Lingao system. The entire carpentry factory has expanded from more than 100 people to 1,000 people. Before the second anti-encirclement and suppression, the Ministry of Military Industry demanded a substantial increase in the production of rifles, and the first expansion was carried out at the strong request of Hailin, and a large number of various building materials were prepared before the engine operation and the second emergency expansion was carried out.

After the expansion, the woodworking factory finally has a relatively better office and production environment, and Hailin's original wooden house has finally become a two-story small building with a brick and wood structure. What's more, the public building is much farther away from the drying kiln, and there is no longer any need to endure the huge heat radiation of the drying kiln in the hot summer.

The first thing I did when I entered the factory was to rush to the conference room to have a production work meeting. Now the middle-level people in the carpentry factory are all naturalized citizens, and when they saw Hailin coming in, they all stood up and greeted Hailin: "Hello chief!" ”

"You're welcome, let's have a meeting."

After Hailin sat down, all the naturalized cadres sat down. The middle-level cadres of the naturalized people, headed by the head of the production department, reported to Hailin on the work of various departments.

When he heard that there were two "fires" in the band saw workshop last night (the band saw was broken, the saw blade broke and flew out), and six people were injured, Hailin couldn't help but feel a little irritated. Nowadays, band saws are all produced in this space, and the quality is very unreliable. If someone gets injured, it becomes even more stressful.

Next, the director of the drying workshop reported that because of the urgent rush, there was a large area of dry mouth in the wood drying kiln. When Hailin heard this, his anger surged, and he slapped the table, and everyone couldn't help but change and lowered their heads one after another.
