"Thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you..."

Wearing a red cheongsam, Liu Bing and Liu Xue knelt in front of Yan Guang and kept kowtowing. Just looking at the two little girls who kowtowed like pounding garlic, who knew that Yan Guang, who was a righteous gentleman on the surface, was actually dripping blood in his heart...

After learning that Liu Bing and Liu Xue were both redeemed by Qin Yuan from the Qinglou, Yan Guang first asked them to get dressed, and then after consulting Qin Yuan's opinion, Yan Guang asked people to bring 500 yuan of ocean to the two of them as travel expenses. There is no way, in order to maintain the prestige of the governor, Yan Guang can't give the two little girls to the palace in front of everyone. In the end, I had to pretend to be a decent man and a gentleman while dripping blood in my heart, and let them take the money and disappear quickly...

Of course, when handing over the money to them, Yan Guang also told them that if they had something, they could come to him (leave the back door). But I don't know if these two little girls really didn't understand, or if they were not interested in being small for others, so after learning that they were free, the two little girls just knelt there and couldn't stop thanking Yan Guang...

"Alright, alright, you can go." Seeing that Liu Bing and Liu Xue were so unfamiliar, Yan Guang waved his hand in disappointment.

However, Yan Guang was also afraid that as soon as the two little girls left Qijiang with their front feet, their back feet would be robbed and then sold to Jiyuan. Therefore, Yan Guang still ordered a team of guards to escort them to Yucheng, so that it would be easier for them to return to their past homes or start a new life in Yucheng.

After instructing the guards to send Liu Bing and Liu Xue out of the county office, Yan Guang took out the kettle he had with him and drank (juice) to soothe the pain in his heart.

At this time, Zhu Qinglan, Chico and others, who were standing behind Yan Guang, looked at Yan Guang with admiration, you must know that not everyone can throw away their sister for the sake of face. After all, the officials are very thick-skinned, especially the officials in the late Qing Dynasty, at least if they were replaced by Zhu Qinglan, they would definitely be cheeky and accept the two girls just now.

When Liu Bing and Liu Xue left the county government under the escort of the guards, Qin Yuan, who had just messed things up, lowered his head on the side. "Governor, do you want to take a rest first..."

Looking at the basic skills of words and expressions, Qin Yuan could certainly see Yan Guang's true mood, so he asked him if he wanted to rest.

"No need." Yan Guang took a few deep breaths and waited until his mood eased a little before he spoke. "Let's get things done first, after all, time is money..."

Originally, Zhu Qinglan was going to make room for Yan Guang to hug the futon and cry bitterly, but now that Yan Guang didn't need it, they naturally stayed.

After Zhu Qinglan, Qin Yuan, Qi Ke and the others were all seated, Yan Guang faced Qin Yuan, Qi Ke and the others. "I came to Qijiang this time to find out how the process is here, and if there are any other difficulties, so if there are any difficulties, please raise them today, and I will find a way to help you solve them."

Hearing Yan Guang say this, Chico's group of foreign technicians looked at each other.

"The work of iron mines and coal mines is going well, and the work of iron factories is also going well, but there are also some problems at present, that is, iron mines, coal mines and smelters all require a lot of manpower, although Qijiang County has a population of more than 300,000, but after excluding the elderly, women, children, farmers and other occupations, the remaining surplus manpower is simply unable to fill this gap..."

"Manpower? How big is the gap? ”

"More than 5,000 workers have been recruited in Qijiang, but at least 10,000 more are needed if we want to catch up..."

"More than 10,000 people..."Yan Guang glanced at Chen Kan on the side. Mayor Chen, is there a way to solve it in Yucheng? ”

"No problem." Chen Kan nodded. "Because of the pro-road movement and ......... There are many people around Yucheng who have caused disasters, so if you can have a job to support your family, I believe many people will be willing to come. ”

Grinning, of course Yan Guang knew what Chen Kan didn't say, but he didn't want to dwell too much on this topic, so he spoke directly. "3 oceans per person per month, Mayor Chen, when you return to Yucheng, you can recruit according to this level." 3 oceans, although it is much worse than the salary of the soldiers of the Sichuan Army, but it is also considered a high salary in this era, so Yan Guangdao is not afraid that he will not be able to recruit people.

"Understood." Chen Kan nodded, he was as confident in this as Yan Guang.

"So, do you have any other problems besides manpower?"

"There are no other problems, as long as the required machinery and equipment and the lack of manpower can be delivered in time, we can build according to the scheduled speed..."In fact, there are still a lot of problems, but those problems are solved by Basel, even if they talk to Yan Guang, it is useless, after all, the profession is not right.

At this time, Qin Yuan on the side asked in a low voice. "Governor, I don't know if the cost of hiring workers is from the military and political axes or..."Although Qin Yuan couldn't raise his head a little because of the mess just now, but this cost question was something he had to ask clearly, after all, there were more than 10,000 people, and 3 oceans per month were more than 300,000 yuan a year, Qijiang was not a wealthy county, if all this cost was paid by Qijiang, then Qin Yuan would have to find a place to hang himself.

Fortunately, although Yan Guang was somewhat dissatisfied with what had just happened, he didn't want to embarrass Qin Yuan in this matter. "Don't worry, the costs of iron mines, coal mines, and iron factories are all borne by the military and political axes, and the local political axes only need to be responsible for cooperating." Let Qijiang be responsible? He didn't believe that Qin Yuan could be responsible.

"Yes, yes, the lowly position must cooperate, and the lowly position is good at cooperating..."Hearing that the cost was not borne by Qijiang Zhengaxe, Qin Yuan hurriedly nodded there and said.

"Good at cooperating?" Listening to Qin Yuan's words just now, Yan Guang always felt a little awkward. "You think you're Xu Baofeng...", but since he had already answered Qin Yuan's question, Yan Guang also wanted to ask about the questions he cared about. So, Mr. Joris, and Mr. Basel, I wonder how much time it will take you to build the Qijiang Iron Works I want? ”

This is the issue that Yan Guang is most concerned about at the moment, after all, the Qijiang Iron Works is a big deal
