As soon as Wei Hong walked out of the door with his front foot, a servant flashed out of the corner of the main hall with his back foot, and quickly left Hongyuan Commercial Bank. Not long after, this servant appeared in the Zichen Hall and told Comrade Lao Li what Wei Hong had just said.

After listening to the servant's report, Comrade Lao Li stroked his beard and laughed: "Hehe, you Wei Hong, you have a grudge against me in your heart, and you don't dare to say it clearly, so let Wei Guogong carry the black cauldron?" After that, Comrade Lao Li called a guard and told the guard what Wei Hong said, and asked the guard to convey it to Li Jing.

After the guards left, Comrade Lao Li waved his hand at the servant: "You don't need to monitor Wei Hong in the future, go down." ”

A moment later, the guards conveyed the message to Li Jing. Li Dejian was also beside him, this kid was afraid that the world would not be chaotic, and he said that Wei Hong often detained the basin on Li Jing's head.

After Li Jing listened, his beard trembled angrily, slapped the table, pointed in the direction of Hongyuan Commercial Bank, and scolded loudly: "Good you little rabbit cub!" How dare you do this to the old man, the old man is not finished with you! After saying that, Li Jing shouted at Li Dejian: "Go!" told Cheng Zhijie and Wei Chigong that Wei Hong, this kid said bad things about them behind his back. Let's just say that Wei Hong said that the two of them are endless, and they dared to fight when they went to the court, and they were not in a proper manner! is a lot older, and like a child, he can't get on the stage! ”

Hearing this, Li Dejian scratched his head and wondered: "Did Mr. Wei really say this?" ”

Li Jing slapped on the table, stood up, and yelled at Li Dejian: "If I tell you to say anything, you will say it!" Wei Hong's little rabbit cub buckled the basin on the old man's head three times and five times! The old man yin him once, which is also kind! ”

"Forehead ......"

When Li Jing changed his law and wanted to 'take revenge' on Wei Hong, Wei Hong took Zhou Dali to the household department and learned that the 100 acres of land rewarded by Comrade Li were in the capital, more than 30 miles east of the city. When Wei Hong arrived, he found that this land was indeed a fertile land, the land was fertile, and there was a river not far from the land, and the river had enough water, so there was no need to worry about irrigation.

Zhou Dali was born in poverty, and when he was young, he often went to the field to farm, so he was very good at the quality of the land. I saw him crouch down, pick out a frozen clod of earth like a stone from the flat ground, and crush it with his fingers. Watching the sparse soil pass through his fingers, Zhou Dali sighed: "Sir, this land is quite fertile, and when it is planted with millet in the spring of next year, there will be a good harvest after the autumn." ”

Wei Hong looked at the endless land, shook his head and said, "What are you planting millet for?" If you want to plant, plant wheat. ”

In this era, there is a huge disparity in crop yields between the North and the South. Rice is mainly grown in the south, while millet is grown in the north. However, the yield of millet is low, and in order to balance the grain production of the north and the south, it is necessary to gradually change millet into wheat. It's just that now wheat has few uses and a small number of people grow it, so it is not accepted by the general public.

Zhou Dali didn't understand why Wei Hong planted wheat, and Wei Hong didn't explain much. took Zhou Dali around his territory, made a rough plan in his mind, and went back with Zhou Dali. Back at Hongyuan Commercial Bank, Wei Hong went directly into the study, took out a pen and paper, and carried out planning and design.

Now Wei Hong has a total of 100 acres of land, and it is definitely impossible to build a factory for this 100 acres. Moreover, we are now in an important period of grain reform, and as long as we can seize the opportunity, we can greatly obtain commercial profits. The factory must be built, and the cultivation of crops has reached the point of imminence. Wei Hong first drew the general terrain on paper, and then designed the workshop as a factory covering an area of ten acres, located at the very edge of the territory, just at the two edges of the river, as far away as the river. Although water is used in the manufacture of equipment in the workshop, a large amount of industrial wastewater is also generated. Wei Hong has seen the consequences of environmental pollution in later generations, so he must not easily discharge waste water at will. Moreover, the river is the only source of water for irrigating crops in Weihong's territory, and it plays a vital role and must not be polluted indiscriminately.

After planning the plant, Wei Hong drew a square at the corner of the territory, the area of this square is about five acres of land, and Wei Hong is ready to make this land into a test field. Except for the experimental plots and the plant, the rest of the land is planted entirely with wheat.

After drawing the planning drawings, he handed them over to Zhou Dali, who first started to recruit workers to build the walls on the periphery of the factory. As for the experimental field and the rest of the farmland, there is no hurry, after all, it is winter, and everything has to wait until the beginning of spring.

At present, Wei Hong's time is very urgent, on the one hand, he has to build a factory, on the other hand, he has to help Hongyuan Commercial Bank to do some business, and secondly, he has to implement the banking system for Comrade Li. Therefore, the building must be built as soon as possible, and at the latest before the beginning of the next spring. If you want to build a factory quickly, you have to recruit a large number of workers. In fact, workers are easy to find, after all, it is winter, it is the most idle time of the year for the people, as long as Wei Hong posts the recruitment notice, I believe that many people will take advantage of this time to make some extra money.

The 100,000 taels of silver that Comrade Lao Li returned to Wei Hong before, Wei Hong did not hand over to Hongyuan Commercial Bank, but was ready to use it as funds for building a factory. Except for the 100,000 taels of silver, the rest of the rewards were all handed over to Li Xuanqing to deal with.

Zhou Dali acted quickly, and it only took two days to recruit more than 60 workers. For the time being, these 60 workers were booked, and then Wei Hong gave Zhou Dali money to Zhou Dali to purchase raw materials for the construction of the plant. Since everything Wei Hong wants to manufacture involves trade secrets, the walls of the factory must be built very high, initially set at five meters. If you want to build a five-meter-high wall, it is very labor-intensive and time-consuming to use rammed earth to pile it up, so Wei Hong simply asked Zhou Dali to buy a large number of bricks and prepare to build the wall directly with bricks.

Although bricks appeared very early, in this era, they were not widely used, and only some wealthy families or nobles used bricks when building houses and mausoleums. Therefore, the price of bricks is not cheap, and there are not many of them. It took Zhou Dali half a month to search the bricks of the entire capital before he could barely scrape together enough materials to build the factory.

After all the raw materials for the construction of the factory were gathered, the number of workers had reached 200, and Wei Hong immediately ordered to start work immediately. In the place where the factory is built, a large number of tents are temporarily erected, so that the workers can live directly on the construction site and build the factory day and night.
