August 1, 54 year of the Xia Yuan calendar.

Early in the morning, the mascot gets up early and gets busy.

"Yo, Sister-in-law Liu, go to work?"

"The little three's family, yes, aren't you too. ”

"Why are you still with your children, the construction site is under construction everywhere, what can you do if you bump into it?" said the third daughter-in-law.

"The steward said, the child can be brought over, many families have brought the baby over, and personnel will be arranged to take care of it then, my kid hasn't played with so many peers. Sister-in-law Liu hugged the child and said happily.

"It's really a good thing, to say that our auspicious collar is really getting more and more intimate, how could there be such a thing before, this young master is really a god descending into the world, seeing that the days are getting better day by day. ”

"That's not it, why haven't you seen your baby, you and your man have gone to work, what should you do with the child?" Sister-in-law Liu asked with concern.

"Hey, the dog is seven years old, and the canteen steward also said that he could help with the transport team, I thought about taking care of at least two full meals, so I discussed it with his father and let him go. The third son-in-law also looked like she didn't suffer anyway, and said with a smile.

"Besides, if the school can be completed ahead of schedule, the child will be sent in at the end of the year, if I don't learn well, I will break his leg, we can't live up to the young master's heart, no matter what, we have to be a useful person, for the young master, for the auspicious to make a contribution. After the third daughter-in-law finished speaking, she added embarrassedly, "This is all said in the announcement of the Propaganda Department, I remember." ”

As the two walked away, the sound became inaudible.

"One-two-one, one-two-one, one, two, three, four!"

"One, two, three, four. ”

The vigilant patrol walked through the streets in orderly steps, carrying no weapons, but a one-and-a-half-foot-long wooden stick pinned to their waists, making people feel safe and fearless.

The patrol area of this group of five people is the section from the east gate to the construction site of Phoenix Avenue, and the task is to maintain order, deal with disputes, and clear the road.

The construction area of Phoenix Avenue is in full swing, with people digging drainage ditches on both sides of the road and dirt piling up in the middle of the avenue. When this section is completed, the road construction personnel will level and tamp the road surface, and the supervisor will measure the flatness and arc and correct it at any time. Thanks to adequate preparation, each process is carried out in an orderly manner.

Some of the rivers of the Lyuin and its tributaries are full of boats transporting sand, cement and bricks, all of which are wooden inland river sand boats, and the volume of a single transport is about one ton.

In order to save wood and reduce the difficulty of construction, Wang Xuan planned to build steel wire mesh cement ships and reinforced concrete ships, one for inland river transportation and the other for going to sea. This kind of ship has a short construction period, as long as there are materials and drawings, there are almost no technical obstacles, unlike wooden boats, which take two years to dry wood, not to mention other hull assembly, nailing, and twisting.

The first public building was a wet market, and workers from the Construction Corps were digging the foundations.

The reason why the vegetable market was built first is because the construction difficulty is the lowest, you can first practice and practice to be familiar with it, followed by the influence of the thinking of "people take food as the sky", and the food of the workers on the surrounding construction sites will not be worried after it is built.

Once the vegetable market is completed and the stalls are rented, the pace of construction of other projects will be accelerated a lot.

Subsequently, Wang Xuan discussed with the military, the Ministry of Construction, and the Government Council a plan for the reorganization of the construction corps, which stipulated that after the completion of the first phase of the project at the end of the year, the construction corps would be divided, and some of them would belong to the "Jijian First Bureau" and be mainly responsible for the construction of various types of buildings; and some would belong to the "engineering barracks" and be subordinate to the military, and they would undertake the construction of military barracks, fortresses, and other military fortifications, which would be completely separated from civilian construction.

The military welcomed this, and in the past year, Wang Xuan has neglected the military to the extreme, and now there are only 1,000 troops left out of the 5,000 troops, and only 1,500 people including the security forces. The military has always believed that it was their incompetence that led to the death of Wang Xuan's three closest relatives one after another, which made Wang Xuan resentful.

Wang Xuan's snub Wang Yu, the former head of the military, also had a hard time, Wang Xuan improved the treatment of the families of martyrs again and again, and even arranged some welfare work for disabled and retired soldiers as much as possible, but it had nothing to do with active soldiers.

Wang Xuan himself knows that he has neglected the military, but there is no way, everything is based on infrastructure and economic development, and it is a waste to raise so many troops in peacetime.

As for the statement of resentment against the military, there is no such thing, for Wang Xuan, whether it is a soldier or an ordinary person, he is his own leader, and the inability to defeat others is the result of a combination of factors, not because the soldiers are greedy for life and afraid of death and fear of war.

The real reason for snubbing the military is to reduce military spending and divert it to infrastructure construction, so as to promote the development of the auspicious economy.

With the development of auspiciousness, more and more people will pay attention to auspiciousness, and auspiciousness will also be "famous". Jixiang needs to be connected to the outside world, and it needs to dump products in the market, and it is impossible to play with mud behind closed doors. Wealth needs to be created, value needs to be embodied, and the root of all this lies in the circulation of capital.

Once there is frequent communication with the outside world, many auspicious secrets will also be known by the outside, and some people with ill intentions will definitely move some crooked thoughts, and Chiyan is the best example. The better the auspicious it is, the more likely it is that a war will break out, and if it weren't for this consideration, Wang Xuan even wanted to disband the army and only keep the checkpoint defense personnel and security team of the Dongshan Pass.

Moreover, it is easy for the army to be disbanded, but it is difficult for the army to be disbanded and want to reunite.

However, Wang Xuan is also prepared, before the war breaks out, the gunpowder must have been poured out, and when the hand-to-hand combat is the time to chase and kill the enemy, the battle damage will be greatly reduced.

The imminent establishment of the "Engineer Barracks" has given the military a reassurance, at least the lords have not completely given up on them, they still have a chance to prove that they are qualified soldiers, they have fought against the Red Flame for four years and have never given up, they are still trustworthy!

The construction of the walls was carried out in stages, and the foundations were not dug through. It's a smart thing to do, and now that the rainy season hasn't passed, building in sections can save time on drainage.

Because Wang Xuan promised to give priority to the supply of cement to all contractors, everyone drove at full power after no worries, and dozens of tower cranes on the inner side of the city wall have been built.

From time to time, residents of the city come to check on the progress and find some things to talk about, which makes the contractor go wrong and rush to work. In the end, the supervisor of the Ministry of Construction couldn't stand it and asked to reduce the construction speed to ensure quality, which avoided embarrassment.

The construction of the bridge has not yet started, and is still in the stage of on-site surveying and drawing design, and the construction of the bridge deck sections that have completed the design has begun.

The model of the reinforced bridge deck segmentation next to the bridge construction area has been built, just waiting for the concrete to be poured. Technicians from the cement plant also came to the site to supervise the mixing and mixing of concrete, and to correct the improper links in time.

Near noon, the smell of meat wafted from the cafeteria area.

At noon, the food of the production and construction corps is responsible for the auspicious collar government, and at noon it is fried wild boar with wild vegetables, boiled cabbage with fish, fried green vegetables, fried beans, and egg and vegetable soup, which is hearty beyond the imagination of many people.

The women in the cafeteria were also stunned, this table was usually enough for a family of five to eat for five or six days, and they were still muttering that the young master was really willing to give up.

But it was honest to think about it, and the women and children ate with their mouths full of oil.

The contractor's canteen was a little worse, with the exception of the absence of wild boar, and the men ate cheerfully, and the meal was swept away in a short time.

Although auspicious development in the past six months is very good, but the beneficiary group is still less, they are now doing decent jobs with a lot of income, but a considerable number of people are still living on the food and clothing line, so every time the recruitment of applicants is always in an endless stream.

With the gradual increase in construction tasks, the available manpower in the market has become less and less, and it is not easy to recruit all the workers in the first phase.

Now the five factories in Hedong, plus the busy farming and infrastructure construction, are now too busy to take care of themselves. There are more than 10,000 people in Hexi Farm, and after harvesting the grain, they are preparing for the second season of planting, and the manpower is also unavailable.

Other factories have employed more than 10,000 young and strong people, equivalent to more than 10,000 families, the old and young in the family have to take care of them, and the crops in the second season have to be planted, and the manpower is really stretched.

Fortunately, the residents of the city actively participated in the construction and compensated for the lack of labor.

Now the auspicious collar is running at a high speed in all aspects, and it can't stop if you want to.
