The craftsmen followed their respective "owners" back and temporarily lived in the factory dormitory.

The canteen for dinner is the same as that of the workers, with three dishes and one soup, two vegetables and one meat.

Feng Gang and his family were assigned a suite, which in today's words is two bedrooms and one living room.

He and his wife Yang live in one room, and their twelve-year-old daughter Feng Qian lives in one room by herself.

"Her father, we're not dreaming, I'm always unsteady, and I'm jumping up and down. It's nothing, but Qian'er is still young, and I'm worried about ......."

His wife Yang looked struggling and helpless, and even a little frightened, and when she talked about Feng Qian, she was even more entangled!

Their family was originally an iron worker in Xiazhou City, but due to the fierce competition, the competitors spent money to use some means, so that his shop was often harassed, and the servants came to the door from time to time to ask for bribes, which was really unsustainable.

It just so happened that Jixiang was recruiting blacksmiths, although it was in the southern border, but he couldn't bear the generous treatment, and the starting point was a monthly salary of three gold coins, which was not counting the bonuses and benefits.

So after the family discussed, they simply gritted their teeth and followed, this was a big gamble, and the gambling money was the net worth of a family of three.

What they saw and heard along the way subverted their original perception of auspiciousness, and they were actually hearsay, sitting in a well and watching the sky. The treatment given here is much higher than they imagined.

It's no wonder that Yang doesn't feel steady, Feng Gang is still a little dizzy now.

However, he is not as worried as Young, he is worried about tomorrow's test.

His skills are not bad, but they are not top-notch, others can come to Jixiang after two rounds of selection, and they are already good, if you want to say that you are not nervous, it is fake.

"Don't scare yourself, take a look, the test is going tomorrow, I'll try to get a good score first." Besides, it's not just us, aren't there more than ten others, don't worry, sleep. Feng Gang comforted.

It is estimated that there are few families who slept soundly this night.

Early in the morning of the second day, some staff led everyone to the canteen for breakfast, with rice porridge, steamed buns, eggs, and pickled vegetables, which were very appetizing.

At about nine o'clock, the blacksmiths were brought to the test site, and a total of three items were tested: material selection, hammering, and quenching. Test the craftsman's eye, hand, skill and experience.

What you have to do today is a shovel, and you only have one chance per person. There are four iron billets next to it, and they need to choose one as the mother billet for processing.

Feng Gang chose a piece of iron with balanced toughness and strength, heated and hammered, and after repeating it several times, he could already see the shape of the spade surface.

The spade surface is then hammered into shape using the mold provided, and then quenched...... The whole process is very smooth, as if these movements have been imprinted in the brain, and they are just instinctive reactions.

Feng Gang repeatedly confirmed whether the details were missed, and after ensuring that they were correct, he began to test the shovel, hammering a few more times in the middle.

When the time comes, the old blacksmiths of the steel mill will mark everyone's works, and then test them for sharpness, strength and toughness. The spade surface should not be too thick or too thin, thick and heavy, thin and not tough.

They used dirt, sand, and stone to test a series of properties, which opened the eyes of a group of foreign blacksmiths.

In the end, Feng Gang's craftsmanship ranked second among the testers, and the first was an old man, a slave, and of course now a free man.

Liang Dahai, the director of the factory, personally announced the results, and everyone was not convinced, after all, this is not a technical evaluation, but just the qualification certification of the factory.

According to the previous agreement, everyone's salary is monthly hardware coins, but the amount of the bonus is not detailed, for fear of scaring them. The prize money alone is around ten gold coins, and the income from only one month is as low as most of their original income for half a year, how terrifying.

At noon, Liang Dahai, the director of the factory, gave a welcome luncheon to welcome everyone to officially join the steel mill, and introduced the development history of the steel mill and the current achievements......

It's just blowing, but the quality is definitely not bad.

Finally, it was announced that everyone does not have to go to work in the next few days, and the salary will be taken as usual. In the afternoon, I went to the plate factory to choose a house, walked around Hexi tomorrow, and went to Hedong the day after tomorrow.

This is completely in accordance with Wang Xuan's statement, Wang Xuan said that you can coax people to come first, and after coming, you have to make people willing to stay, and the twisted melon is not sweet! So Liang Dahai came up with such an idea, so that the newcomers can understand all aspects of auspiciousness as soon as possible, so that the real auspiciousness can keep them.

After lunch, Feng Gang's family was arranged on a small boat and sailed south to the plate factory, as did more than ten other households. On the not wide river, a fleet of boats is mighty, which is an epic scene in auspiciousness, attracting residents on both sides of the strait to watch.

The panel factory is much bigger than everyone imagined, they have seen the production workshop of the simple board house, and they have also seen the assembly line operation of the furniture factory, which has made them more and more interested in auspiciousness.

After coming to the villa area along the stone road, everyone was deeply shocked, this piece is basically a two-and-a-half-story building, tall, elegant, exquisite, calm, pavilions, Qionglou Yuyu, showing exotic customs.

Unknown fruit trees were planted next to the first villa, and the land was leveled outside, but flowers and vegetables were planted on it......

After entering the house, the oversized hall was even more surprisingly closed.

The floor is covered with thick solid wood floors, and the two thick load-bearing pillars are carved with some flowers, grasses, insects and fish patterns, which are not colored, but they also appear vivid.

Rows of custom-made chairs are quaint and elegant, and around a rectangular table, which is the coffee table. Next door is an indoor toilet, which uses Yongsheng's sanitary ware, which is available on each floor.

The kitchen is on the other side of the living room, and the concrete stove is designed to use coal. You can also use a coal stove, but the fire is a little smaller.

The twin design of the stove has a belly at the bottom, with an air inlet to control the fire, and a vent outside to facilitate smoke exhaust.

The stove is pasted with Yongsheng tiles, which is not only beautiful, but also more convenient to clean.

Next to the kitchen is the study, with some thread-bound books scattered on the delicate and quaint bookshelves, and a set of exquisite tea sets on the table!

The wooden spiral staircase leads to the second floor, where a circular walkway leads to a panoramic view of the lobby when viewed under the railing. On the outside of the walkway are rooms for different purposes and open-air balconies.

The interior decoration of the room is also carved beams and paintings, antique, and each room has a unique cave.

This is the first villa that Feng Gang's family has seen, and there are more than a dozen of them in the back.

At this time, Feng Qian was reluctant to leave, all this was too tempting for an adolescent girl, and the imagination at that time was now presented in front of her one by one, how could she let it pass by? So, lying on the big bed on the second floor, she rolled vigorously, blushing a little shyly, and smiled softly at Feng Gang.

Everyone looked at it all the way, and each one was so fascinating and difficult to give up. In the end, the old couple listened to their daughter's advice and chose the first building.

In the evening, the group returned to the steel mill by boat, and it was another sleepless night.

Early the next morning, the staff of the factory handed over the counted villa models to Liang Dahai, and then the information was transferred to the Ministry of Construction to undertake the construction of these 15 villas.

On this day, Feng Gang and the others were going to visit the Chengnan Farm first, and they heard that more than half of the auspicious grain was produced here, and in another year, the lord would give them a house and a new job!

They walked along Nongbei Road through Nongdong Street and Nongzhong Road, and the smooth avenue along the way greatly reduced the bumps of the carriage. The wide and straight road is rarely seen even in Great Xia, and the trees on both sides that have been slightly majestic give people a strong and unyielding artistic conception, and the sunlight passes through the leaves, leaving dappled spots of light in the middle of the road, everything seems so harmonious and beautiful.

Farm workers are catching fish in the rice fields, which will be drained in half a month, while the fish in the ditches are used as "fingerlings" and are rarely caught.

They then visited the farm, where they saw chickens and ducks with their wings clipped, herds of cattle and sheep, and nearly 100 horses.

At the beginning, more than 170 horses survived in the end, including 10 horses from the Ministry of Agriculture, 50 horses from the Ministry of Public Security, 20 horses from Hedong, and 10 horses from the Logistics Department.

The group saw no less than six junior schools on the farm, and the students in the schools were all children of farm workers, who were not nobles, but they were entitled to the right to learn knowledge. This is the biggest feat of auspiciousness at the moment, and it is unparalleled.

Seeing that everyone was interested in the school, the "tour guide" deliberately went to Chengnan District and Liuyin District, and visited the new school buildings under construction. The project is in the final stage, and the interior renovation is underway, and there is no problem in completing it in December.

How could everyone have seen such a dense school building in such a small area, so they all secretly smacked their tongues, marveled at the auspicious difference, and at the same time secretly rejoiced.

When they heard that their school-age children would also be studying here, they looked more closely.

Lunch was served in the factory cafeteria, and in the afternoon they were going to visit the new town.

Everyone is not surprised, and they have gradually developed spiritual antibodies.

What a new bridge, a unique brick structure of the government affairs institute, an unimaginable vegetable market, a fantastic Phoenix School, and a newly started Jixiang Hospital......

When they saw the twenty-meter-long sand table in front of the lord's mansion, everyone was dumbfounded again.

On the third day, they came to Hedong and visited two groups of new immigrants.

In the afternoon, we visited the He'an mosquito incense factory, breeding farm and quarry, and also saw the grain and oil factory under construction.

On the fourth day, their children's information has been gathered in preparation for school in February.

The steelmaking plant is located in Liuyin District, so everyone's children should study in Liuyin Junior School, if there are gifted children can apply for Jixiang Academy, and older ones can apply for Jixiang Technical College.

There is no arrangement today, and they are free to move around within a certain area.

When wandering aimlessly, they found that on the west bank of the Liuyin River, south of the steel mill, their house had already started, and a large number of bricks and stones and other building materials were transported ashore by water.

At this moment, everyone's mood is very complicated, and they can't figure out why such auspiciousness is so unbearable and unpopular in Great Xia.

This is the most beautiful place they have ever seen, the people are kind and united, the government is honest and fair, and most importantly, the lord of the auspicious lord, who has far more insight and courage than ordinary people. Ordinary lords don't do this, they are either fools or great men, and auspicious lords are obviously not the former.

"Qian'er, we'll be here for the rest of our lives, okay?"

Feng Gang looked at his daughter lovingly, stroked her hair with his big rough hands, and said softly.

"Good!"

Feng Qian stared at the many busy figures in the construction department, and her smile was still as shy as ever.

"I like it here, I can feel that this is the place we have been looking for, there is a beauty here that Great Xia has never had!"

Yes, maybe this is the place where the lost beauty exists, and the place where miracles are born!
