Chapter 245: The helplessness of the mountain city

January 31, 1941, Qijiang County

Li Yunlong is engaged in education over there, and Wang Yue is also very powerful here, and the architectural drawings, teaching materials, teaching aids, equipment, school uniforms and other things that Li Yunlong needs have also been implemented one by one, and even in order to support the implementation of compulsory education in Qijiang, a large number of cement board houses have been obtained, with a total area of up to one million square meters, which has instantly solved the problem of school buildings and housing shortage in Qijiang County.

Wang Yue wanted to get a prefabricated house here early in the morning, but the technology of filling the benzene board with color steel plate is a little "advanced" and can't be brought at all, and the old-fashioned cement board house can be used, but how many years has that thing been discontinued, there is not much at all, and it is too late to open a new factory, but this time when he inspected the Binzhou canning factory, Wang Yue did find a good thing - concrete prefabricated board house.

To put it bluntly, this thing is a cement board house, although the manufacturing technology must have exceeded the level of 1941, but the house itself is not a high-tech thing in it, Wang Yue organized dozens of small factories in Binzhou to produce this thing, engaged in a "technical research", reduced the cement mark, increased the amount of artificial sand, directly replaced the fine steel bar with No. 8 iron wire, canceled the warm filler, and compressed the cost of 350 yuan per square meter to 200 yuan, and then Wang Yue waved his pen, An order of one million square meters was placed directly.

This thing is an absolute counterfeit product in the 21st century, but it is a good thing in the time and space of the bright sword, even if the quality of this thing is worse, it is stronger than those adobe houses and wooden houses, right? Even the kind of brick houses built of clay did not have this explanation, so that Mr. Lin revised the design plan overnight and replaced most of the buildings of Qijiang Technical College with cement slab houses, which gave the college a little rudimentary form within dozens of days.

On this day, Wang Yue, who was hanging out in Qijiang after being a porter, was blocked by General Chen, and the reason was very simple, the industrial development plan of the Ministry of Military Affairs was a little out of play, and the progress of various plans was very slow, or even stagnant.

"Didn't build a factory?" After listening to Admiral Chen's explanation, Wang Yue's face was full of a dog's expression, in the time and space of the bright sword in 1941, the Shancheng government could not find a place to build a small factory with a gun in hand, how could this be possible!

"The people sent out by the Ministry of Military Affairs to select the site found that the location they chose was a land with a master, even if it was a wasteland, it was a land that people had purchased for decades, and if they bought it, the cost could be several times higher than building a factory." Admiral Chen said helplessly, at this time he can be considered to understand, the Ministry of Finance approved his plan happily, and even pushed his side to pay the Eighth Route Army, which is likely to be a pit, the money is paid, the rhetoric is out, the workers are recruited, if the plan is stranded, it is simply a slap in the face of the government, as long as it is possible, the highest authorities will insist on pushing the plan forward.

In fact, it doesn't seem that there are many difficulties in pushing forward, the biggest one is that money, as long as you are willing to spend money, it will always be solved, but this money for no reason makes the highest authorities very angry, especially after knowing that it is those little cubs who are doing trouble behind their backs, they are even more furious, but it is useless, and you can't really kill those few, right?

"Lao Chen, the equipment on my side has begun to be delivered gradually, and our payment for the goods must not be refunded." Wang Yue smiled, what can be done about this matter, it is obvious that there are people within the government who want to divide the money, unless this kind of thing is the collapse of the Shancheng government, there is no solution.

The person who chose the site was bought, and the people of the local government cooperated, and worked out the required legal documents overnight, and packed up the beginning and end, this is a legal thing, you don't want to be slaughtered, then you change places, but the change place is still the result, even if you go according to the wasteland, you can't escape, the government recognizes the title deed of the previous dynasty, do you believe it or not, and after you build it, the wasteland can become a master's land, and then you have to spend more money than before, which is simply unsolvable, okay?

"No, how could it be, the government respects the contract between us very much, and Mr. Wang can rest assured." Minister Chen said that although the supreme authorities decided to move forward with the plan, they still told Admiral Chen whether it was possible to cancel some of the orders, and that the supreme authorities were already planning to abandon those projects that could not be carried out anyway.

"Lao Chen, believe me, as long as you are shameless enough, you can do whatever you want, you just find an ownerless place to do it, and if someone comes to ask for money, let them sue, and let the court judge casually, anyway, the judgment is in fiat currency, if you make the claim amount high, maybe you can stabilize the value of fiat currency." Wang Yue thought about it and said, this kind of thing is also common in later generations, it's nothing, it's a routine operation.

"Fiat currency also has to be returned." Admiral Chen is embarrassed, the judicial system is not very obedient many times, they can control it on the side of the Supreme Court, but you can't control the courts below at all, just this Sichuan Province, eighty percent of the courts are in the hands of military leaders, and the southwestern provinces are the same.

"If you drag it out, if you really can't do it, you can issue long-term treasury bonds, just pay them treasury bonds, and according to the current rate of depreciation of fiat currency, maybe there will be nothing left on the day when it is redeemed." Wang Yue thought of the old people who worked hard to save money in later generations, saved in the sixties and seventies, and in 2024, the situation is that the monthly salary of that year will become a cup of milk tea, and the power of monetary weapons will always be the greatest.

"W-is this going to work?" Admiral Chen didn't think it was so rare, it was a routine operation, just like issuing fiat currency, wasn't it just that all the previous government's silver yuan bonds were exchanged for fiat currency? Until now, the amount required to pay for the bonds of the Beiyang period is only one-tenth of the value of the bonds, but the question is whether this trick can be used against those people? The Ministry of Finance is in the hands of others, and if they dare to do so, the Ministry of Finance will dare to pay the national bonds in advance.

"How fresh, as long as it's shameless enough, they must have nothing to do with you, you can definitely solve this matter." Wang Yue smiled, there are no relatives in this family, how shameless outsiders can be, how good they can be to their own people, and the two faces will change seamlessly.

"Mr. Wang, there is another question, the one above is very dissatisfied with the distribution of those European workers, the government has agreed with the Eighth Route Army before, three or seven points, and the Eighth Route Army only accounts for thirty percent, but the current situation is that almost ninety percent of the European workers are in Qijiang County and Jin Province, do you think you can mention it to Li Yunlong?" General Chen said helplessly: They have talked about this matter with the Southern Bureau and Northern Shaanxi, and Comrade Hu Bicheng even reprimanded Li Yunlong by phone in person.

But Li Yunlong didn't listen to this goods at all, and kept pulling people to Qijiang County, and there were also transport planes to deliver them to Jin Province, so that there were only some old, weak, sick and disabled guys who were not skilled in the hands of the Shancheng government.

"Lao Chen, speaking of this, I have to have a fight with you, when I came back from Europe, we promised the air marshal that we would pay wages and living expenses." Wang Yue pursed his lips and glanced at Admiral Chen, as if you understood what you meant.

"Mr. Wang, the government has allocated special funds and materials to settle these workers, and everything is done according to the highest standards." Admiral Chen said with a straight face, "Measure China's material resources and form a friendship with the country." This sentence is absolutely not empty words, and in order to show its great power in front of friendly people, the supreme authorities have made a bloody investment.

"Come on, I didn't go to the scene to investigate, after the Ordnance Bureau picked up the craftsmen, they were all thrown directly into an abandoned town, and there was no ration of meat, eggs and milk at all, only some moldy grains and bitter coarse salt, it would be good if you didn't starve to death, as for the living expenses and wages, the living expenses were directly gone, as for the wages, they were simply settled directly to Hans in fiat currency, or bonds, the reason why Lao Li pulled people was also to maintain our relationship with the Air Marshal." Wang Yue explained with a smile that he didn't tell Admiral Chen about the Air Marshal going crazy, the fat marshal was so angry that he almost had a cerebral hemorrhage, if it really happened, it would definitely be a strange news, and some people would have to be given the title of an anti-fascist fighter.

"They, how dare they!" Admiral Chen was so angry that the whole person was trembling, this matter looked like those guys from the Ordnance Industry Administration took action, but in fact, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, the Ministry of Finance, and the Shancheng City Government were all involved.

So, in the end, it can only be over.

"Why don't they? Admiral Chen, don't lie to yourself, there is nothing in this world that they dare not do, I will say hello to Lao Li about this, but no matter what, we still have to give people a way to live, if there is no way to live, we can't stop those Hans workers from finding a way to live. Wang Yue is also very helpless, don't talk about ideals, just talk about stomach, you can't let people come all the way to Asia to continue to starve, right?

"No, no." Admiral Chen didn't know what to say, and he couldn't make it clear that the government would never tolerate so many workers falling into the hands of the Eighth Route Army.

"Lao Chen, there are some things that you and I can't stop, you can only do your best, you might as well gather everyone together and discuss it, you can always turn one percent into seventy percent, believe me, do this, they are professional." Wang Yue persuaded with a smile, he really understood the mood of General Chen now, what might he do, even if he helped him break the matter, but this matter could not be completely reversed, it could only be alleviated.

"Well, that's all it can be." Admiral Chen felt that his strength was about to be drained in an instant.
