Chapter 5 Fenhe Bridge Making Toilet Paper

Li Yunhe said excitedly on the phone: "Mr. Zhang! Good news, Lu Qi's bridge has been fully opened. Now it's about to be paved asphalt, don't you see? ”

"Good! I'll go right over. Hearing the news, Zhang Zhimu was so happy that he wanted to sing, and went out to ask Yang Yulin to arrange a car to go to the dock, and at the same time asked Yang Yulin to inform Yang Chang that tomorrow's matter would be postponed.

Yang Yulin saw that Zhang Zhimu was so happy, and asked, "Why are you so happy?" ”

"The Lingshui Bridge on the Fenhe River has been paved, and the asphalt is about to be paved, I have to go over and take a look, I'm afraid I won't be able to come back tomorrow, don't let Yangchang and them wait for me." You give Yangchang a call. Zhang Zhimu said.

"Wait!" Yang Yulin said, "I'll arrange it and go over with you." ”

"Good! Hurry up! Zhang Zhimu said, "You still call home, if you don't go back, my cousin will mumble again." ”

"Let her mumble! I'm used to hearing it, so I don't think I heard it. After saying that, Yang Yulin immediately arranged these things and took the guards to follow Zhang Zhimu to the Yaogang Wharf by car, and took a boat to Lingshui Wharf together.

Zhang Zhimu thought he had come early, but when he arrived at Lingshui Bridge, he saw Lu Bingyi, Li Dong, Liu Baoxue and others all arriving.

Seeing that Zhang Zhimu had arrived, Lu Bingyi greeted him and said, "Mr. Zhang can't help but want to take a look?" ”

"Oops! I really can't wait. Zhang Zhimu said, shook hands with Lu Bingyi and shook hands with Li Dong and Liu Baoxue, "Li Dong, you also come over to see the excitement?" What about Lu Qi and Li Yunhe? ”

Lu Bingyi said: "They are on the other side of the bridge." Let's go check it out. Now you can walk across the Fen River from here. ”

Zhang Zhimu came to the bridge with everyone. Looking at several large round arches from the bridge, I feel that the round arches are exceptionally tall. The cement box girders on the bridge deck have been paved, and people can walk on them. In order to reduce the wear and tear of the box girders directly on the bridge deck and make the road surface smoother, it is also necessary to pave the ground with gravel and then pave the asphalt. Seeing that the bridge was very strong, Zhang Zhimu asked, "How is Mr. Lu?" Can the bridge be navigated by tractors? ”

"Huh! Not to mention tractors, ten are fine. Lu Bingyi said with confidence.

When they came to the middle of the bridge, Li Yunhe, Lu Qi and Lu Qi's son Lu Wenchen happened to be here, they greeted them, Zhang Zhimu went over and shook hands with them and said, "Congratulations!" The bridge is really not easy, for more than a year, Lu Qi can drop a few catties of flesh. ”

"Mr. Zhang, to be honest, tired is tired, but standing on this bridge, I feel that it is worth it." Lu Qi was a little excited, "How many times can people have such opportunities in their lives, and whoever encounters them will do their best." ”

"When do you think it will be officially opened?" Zhang Zhimu asked.

"At the end of February! At that time, the ice was also civilized. Lu Qi said, "After we pave the road twice, we have to paint the bridge. The arches are painted red, the other steel components are painted gray, and the railings of the bridge are painted white. The bridge is even more beautiful after all the brushing. ”

Zhang Zhimu said: "Okay! However, I wonder if you want to put electric lights on the bridge! ”

"How much electricity does it cost?" Lu Qi asked puzzled.

"You can do this, design several sets of lights. In the first half of the night, all lights can be lit, and in the second half of the night, only the lights that illuminate the bridge deck can be lit so that pedestrians can see the road. Zhang Zhimu said, "Our bridge not only has the function of facilitating cross-strait exchanges, but also a landscape." When the time comes, who will not come to the kiln gang to take a look at this bridge? ”

Li Yunhe said: "I will ask Yangchang and them to come over tomorrow to help design the lamp." Now our Lingshui Bridge Management Office has been established. They are responsible for the day-to-day maintenance and cleaning of the bridge. Three days after we were ready to officially open to traffic, we started charging one-way tolls. At the two ends of the bridge, one end handed over the silver and held a sign, and at the other end, handed over the sign and let it go. Every night, the signs on both sides are against silver. so as not to make mistakes. ”

"Huh! This is Mr. Lu's idea, right? Zhang Zhimu knew that Lu Chengxiang would not leave a loophole in the silver.

"Of course," Li Yunhe said, "this matter can still escape Mr. Lu's eyes." Mr. Lu also said that if the two ends are found to cheat on each other, they will be severely punished. ”

Zhang Zhimu hadn't seen Lu Wenchen for a long time, but when he saw him this time, he felt that he was now grown up, and he was no longer the half-sized young man.

Zhang Zhimu asked: "Wenchen! This time, you have recruited a group of trainees who are learning to drive and repair tractors. Did they ever want to come to the army after graduation? We can give them the officer treatment directly. ”

"Then don't you break your head?" Lu Wenchen said, "How bullish is the army now? Officers are still well paid. Yes, people are willing. ”

"Good! You pay attention to the selection of fifty people who are in good health, and after graduation, they will wear military uniforms and become officers. "Zhang Zhimu wants to form an armored corps, and first select fifty seed officers.

Li Yunhe heard what Zhang Zhimu meant, "Does Zhang always want to form an artillery crew?" ”

"Not only artillery drivers, but also Li Wei's heavy artillery in the future will need tracked tractors, as well as officers who understand technology. Now Lu Wenchen, the people they recruit are all treasures. Zhang Zhimu said, "In the future, we will select some clever soldiers and form a new team with these officers." This team, I think it is better to arrange for Li Wei to take care of them first. Your tractor factory needs to be strengthened, how are you adjusting? ”

"I have already transferred technical forces from several factories to the tractor factory. Now we have several groups working on the product at the same time. Li Yunhe said, "It won't be long before the car team can come up with a prototype." Ten motorcycles were built, and we made them run around every day. After a while, there are no major problems, and it can be put into production. The bulldozers and tractors used to plough the land have already started to be put on the production line. When the four-wheeled tractor is warm, we will build another factory, and we will soon be on the production line. ”

"Good! Your tractor factory is the leader," Zhang Zhimu said, "and you have to take care of it a little more." ”

In the evening, everyone had a drink with everyone in Lu Qi's tent at the construction site.

Zhang Zhimu said to Li Dong, who was sitting next to him: "You must hurry up about the alloy aluminum." Different alloys such as iron, copper, manganese, zinc, and silicon should be made in different proportions, and then their tensile strength, hardness, elasticity, flexural strength, conductivity and other parameters should be tested. Once this is done, we can select the aluminum alloy we need. In the future, our aluminum alloys will be of great use. ”

"Don't worry, Mr. Zhang, we prepared a team before we went to Baotou, and specially prepared a workshop for them to do alloy aluminum experiments." Li Dong said, "The test methods you mentioned, in addition to conductivity, their parameters, we have tested when we were making steel, and there are not only special testing equipment, but also special testing people. You are like these steel bars, when we come out, we can give these parameters. ”

Lu Bingyi was very happy to hear that Li Dong was able to give these parameters now, "Mr. Li, it would be great if all the materials could give these parameters." The parameters we design now are all estimated, and I don't know how many times to zoom in. With this detailed parameter, we can be more accurate when we design it in the future. It can also save a lot of materials. ”

Li Dong said: "In the future, Liu Baoxue will be more in charge of the smelting field." When the weather gets warmer, I will go to Baotou, and before the steel plant is built in Baotou, I must first build a power plant and a cement plant. Now the electricity is temporarily enough, and the tinplate and galvanized plate on our side of the smelting plant can be put into production. Mr. Zhang said this for a long time, but we didn't do it because we didn't have enough electricity. ”

"That's great!" Zhang Zhimu said, "Yunhe, you immediately organize people to produce canned food boxes." We use tinplate to produce canning boxes, and we can put meat, fruits, and vegetables into canning boxes. We're also going to set up a cannery. No matter what, as long as we put it in a can, sterilize it and seal it, it can be stored for a long time. In the future, the army can bring canned food, and the food problem will be solved. Especially in the future, we will have to sail to the sea, and it will take a long time to go out, and with canned food, we can guarantee the supply of food. ”

"Is it possible that we can also build a canning factory in Baotou in the future, where the beef and mutton are simply too cheap. We can buy cattle and sheep and make them into canned food. Li Dong immediately thought of the beef and mutton in Baotou.

"Of course you can, in the future, the canned beef and mutton in Baotou will be high-end food in the south." Zhang Zhimu said, "The meat of the cattle and sheep slaughtered over there seems to be much better than ours." ”

"Huh! Mr. Zhang also has a feeling! Liu Baoxue said, "I asked the locals in Baotou about this question, and they said that the sheep there came to our side, and the taste of the mutton was different after drinking the water from our side." They ate the mutton as soon as they came to us, and I thought I saw it that way. ”

"Yes, the mutton on the grassland is so different." Zhang Zhimu said, "In the future, canneries can be built in Hexi and Ordos." If you turn the lamb directly into canned food, you can sell it for a good price. ”

"In addition, galvanized sheets are also very useful if they are produced. Buckets and basins can all be made with galvanized sheets. Galvanized sheets can be used in other places where steel plates are needed, because after galvanizing, the thin steel sheets will not rust. We can use it in a lot of places. Zhang Zhimu said.

While drinking wine, Lu Qi said: "After the Lingshui Bridge is opened to traffic, our people will be divided into two roads, all the way to Taiyuan, and build another Taiyuan Bridge on the Fen River in accordance with the construction method of the Lingshui Bridge." Another group of people went to the meander of the river and began to build the bridge of the Yellow River in the meander. ”

"Lu Qi! You still have to train people more. After this bridge is built, we can build two bridges, and these two bridges are finished. We should be able to build several bridges at the same time. Zhang Zhimu attaches more importance to talent training, "In the future, we will build more bridges on the Yellow River." We need a lot of people who can organize the construction of the bridge. Thousands of troops are easy to get, and one will be hard to find! ”

"I know that this time we are going to train new people in Xinqiao." Lu Qi said, "Besides, Tang Jingyao has been urging me over." The Hutuo River is going to close the barrage dam this year, and I want to go there as soon as possible. ”

Li Yunhe said: "You better take the time to go back and have a look." Lu Qi: They brought back a lot of kapok from Nanyang. Kapok can't be woven alone, and they haven't done a good job of blending it with cotton. Mr. Lu was in a hurry. Also, our acetate filament is also pulled out. You should go back and see how you can weave the cloth. ”

"That's right! Lu Qi, go back and have a look," Zhang Zhimu said, "Acetate fiber can not only be spun directly from filament, but also can be blended into short filament and cotton." Acetate filament has a better luster than silk. But the biggest problem with that thing is that dyeing is too strenuous. The fuel needs to be ground very finely. And it takes a lot of additives to dye. This matter requires you and Master Qingfengzi to spend some energy to solve it. But if you solve this problem, we'll weave the highest quality fabrics. When this thing arrives overseas, it is much more valuable than silk. ”

"Huh! It's only been a year or two since I left Yaogang, and there are a lot of things I don't know. I'm really going to go back and see it. Lu Qi said.

Zhang Zhimu said: "Mr. Lu, you are a general, where there is a problem, you have to kill it." Zhang Zhimu's words are definitely true.

Hearing Zhang Zhimu say this, he also drank some wine, Lu Qi was a little excited, "Mr. Zhang, I was originally a carpenter, I had no food to eat, my son and I were taken in by you in the kiln, I never dreamed of being like this." At night, I often ask myself if these things are dreaming now. My son Lu Wenchen and I have long been concerned about how much money we make. Life is not the same now as it was before. Many of my family members and friends have come to Yaogang, so not only do we have to worry about food and clothing, but also benefit our neighbors. My reputation is much more famous in my hometown than in Yaogang. This is all thanks to Mr. Zhang, and the matter of the kiln is my business. I have absolutely nothing to say about where you go. ”

"What Mr. Lu said is so good!" Zhang Zhimu said, "The reason why our kiln has undergone such a big change is because everyone takes the kiln as their own business. Please believe that our kiln will get better and better. The people of the whole world will follow us to get benefits. Slowly, they will live a good life like Yaogang. ”

Staying at Lingshui Wharf that night, Yang Yulin liked the feeling of living outside very much, of course, the two of them would inevitably have another cloud and rain. The two of them were busy and rested for a while. Yang Yulin asked, "Hey! You say, why can't we have another child? Yang Yulin said.

"Oops! You see I'm also working very hard, but no, what do you say? After Zhang Zhimu finished speaking, he immediately felt that his arm was pinched again.

Yang Yulin said a little unwillingly: "You just have too little time with me." I must have a son. ”

"You see I'm also sweating, what else should I do?" After speaking, Zhang Zhimu hurriedly hid, he didn't want to be pinched again.

Yang Yulin smiled and said, "Hey! Perhaps, today? ”

"I think it's about the same, otherwise we'll be in vain!" Zhang Zhimu's words made Yang Yulin very happy.

However, Yang Yulin quickly said seriously: "Yang Jing told me that he wants to talk to you about wanting to expand the SWAT team in a few days." I think Yang Jing should be asked to form a team to guard the kiln guards. Our Yaogang army is always being transferred here and there, and the guard troops should be stabilized. ”

"Aren't there still you female soldiers in the guards?" Zhang Zhimu asked.

"Hey! There is really a big thing, and the female soldiers still can't do it. Yang Yulin said, "I heard Yang Jing say that Uncle Yan also mentioned this matter to him." ”

"It seems that there is a need to set up nine admirals." Although Zhang Zhimu was telling a joke, he had already taken this matter seriously in his heart.

"I don't think it's as good as that, so I will use the special police brigade as the basis to expand the Yaogang guard force." Yang Yulin proposed.

"I think it's okay, I can also ask Li Jing for a few experienced people to come over." Zhang Zhimu said, "I want to talk to Uncle Chen and Mr. Ouyang about this first." ”

"What else do you want to say about this?" Yang Yulin said, "The police are not in their hands. ”

Yang Yulin's words made Zhang Zhimu feel very uncomfortable, obviously Yang Yulin was a little distracted in his words, but the more this was the case, Zhang Zhimu felt that this matter should be told to Chen Yufeng and Ouyang He. Zhang Zhimu said to Yang Yulin very seriously: "Yulin, our family must not be distracted, it will not be good if that happens." ”

"Hey! You think too much," Yang Yulin said, "I can still be distracted by Uncle Chen!" You're thinking too much! I just feel a little bit of a stood-down person in my own hands. Besides, if we fight in the future, we will all go out, and we must have directly mobilized soldiers and horses in our hands. ”

"Huh!" Zhang Zhimu said, "I don't believe it, the soldiers and horses in the kiln gang, and the ones I can't move." Let's sleep! Zhang Zhimu hugged Yang Yulin.

The next day, Zhang Zhimu went to the paper mill first and said to the factory director: "You want to make a very soft paper after you." ”

The factory director was puzzled and asked, "What is the paper like?" ”

Zhang Zhimu said: "You first make a very thin paper, then combine several layers together, and then press it into many fine folds. Depending on the application, it can be cut into many small rolls or into cubes. Small rolls are generally used when going to the toilet. A handful of cubes are used as paper towels. ”

"Oh! I understand. The director understood at this time. It turns out that after pooping, you have to use paper to wipe your cheeks. You can also use a paper towel to wipe your face.

Zhang Zhimu saw that the paper mill produced a large number of yellow kraft paper, and asked, "Where is this kraft paper used so much?" ”

"Originally, it was for the director of the Wu factory to load cement, but now Mr. Lu wants more. I heard that it sells very well. The director said.

After leaving the paper mill, Zhang Zhimu and Yang Yulin went to Fan Chengkun to visit everyone again.

Fan Chengkun was of course happy, and they carefully studied the battle of the Yangtze River together.

Fan Chengkun is very concerned about the affairs of Zhenjiang Shipyard, "Mr. Zhang, after the construction of Zhenjiang Shipyard is completed, can you build a big ship like ** Fu Ship?" ”

"It's not enough to build an all-steel-hulled ship over there. It's not realistic for all our stuff to be shipped by ship. However, Mr. Lin Zongwei sent his son and nephew over, and I thought that he would build a wooden sailing boat, install a steam engine, and go fishing first. It is equivalent to practicing hands first. Zhang Zhimu said, "When we can build the railway to the edge of the Yangtze River, let's talk about building steel-hulled ships." ”

As he was talking, Lin Zongwei came to the door. He heard that Zhang Zhimu was in Fan Chengkun, so he rushed over.

Zhang Zhimu knew that Lin Zongwei would definitely not come to see him if he had nothing to do.
