Daxing County, Northeast Tai Village.

When you arrive from the north, the first thing that catches your eye is a straight road, and as you go south, factories begin to appear on both sides of the road.

The further you go inside, the larger the factory becomes, and the more branching roads there are.

The houses on the original land are gone, and the famous local "iron slag bridge" has also disappeared, and has been replaced by a straight reinforced concrete bridge.

There are many vendors in the factory area, and the dormitory area of the headquarters has also been expanded and expanded to provide accommodation for workers.

The buildings in the dormitory are getting taller and taller, and the latest one is more than 20 meters high.

On top of the building, a crane was erected to transport the building materials from the ground to the floor using pulleys.

The new buildings on the outside are high, but the old buildings on the inside are low, and when you walk here, you can see the tallest building.

The clock tower in the core area of the headquarters.

What's even more amazing is that on the road of the factory, horse-drawn carriages that follow the route pass from time to time, and people can ride for free.

After all, the headquarters area occupies too large an area, and the carriage in the factory area can speed up people's actions and improve production efficiency.

In the east market of the dormitory area, a two-story cement building was also built, and the signboard reads China Heavy Industry Restaurant.

The consumption level of the big restaurants is very high, and ordinary workers generally do not come here to consume, and most of them are used by wealthy people to entertain.

And now a large number of businessmen are pouring into the headquarters factory, and the wealthy businessmen are in short supply.

The managers of the outer cabinet will invite their important partners who came from other places to attend the meeting to dinner, and more businessmen invite the managers of China Heavy Industry to dinner.

Honeycomb Coal Chamber of Commerce, Military Economic Cooperatives, Coal Mining Industry Associations and other organizations have chartered a private room for a month in the China Heavy Industry Restaurant.

Because of the distance and the speed of news transmission, many businessmen came to the headquarters in advance, and many businessmen were still on the way.

The businessmen who came in advance, of course, had their abacus, and relied on this opportunity to contact and make friends with the managers of China Heavy Industries.

China Heavy Industries Restaurant is the best place to go, but the limited location has led to a boom in the catering business in the city of Beiping.

A large number of merchants, especially the big chambers of commerce, not only came from the owners, but also brought the treasurers and stewards.

These people have money and are willing to spend money, which stimulates the vitality of all walks of life in Beiping and makes many businesses make a lot of money.

Money can only play a role when it is circulated, and money that cannot be circulated has no utility like waste paper.

And coincidentally, at this critical juncture, several officials came from the Ministry of Industry of Yingtianfu, and they wanted to inspect the steam engine factory.

The person at the head is called Lian Zining.

"This person has been on the road list for 18 years, because the way to strengthen the country and enrich the people in the article is highly valued, although it was revised in Hanlin, but I heard that he has been watching the government in the Ministry of Industry, and it will be of great use."

For the people who came from Tianfu to inspect the steam engine factory, Zhu Di did not come forward to receive them, but handed them over to Zhu Gaochi.

Jin Zhong inquired about the heels of the person who came, and reported it to Zhu Gaochi as soon as possible.

Zhu Gaochi knew who Lian Zining was.

This person is a loyal minister of Jianwen, a person with integrity, if it is only for his own rights, he just needs to go to the court as usual and not speak.

In the case of steps, he still stood up and insulted Zhu Di in front of a civil and military official, no matter how his behavior was seen by future generations, but this person had his ambition and was willing to give his life.

For this kind of person, Zhu Gaochi has a headache, because this kind of person is not afraid of death.

He is not even afraid of death, so what power in the world can yield to him? Only the righteousness of his heart.

"What is his purpose?" Zhu Gaochi asked depressedly.

Jin Zhong shook his head.

"This man is tight-lipped and it is difficult to get useful information from him, but through contact with the rest of the officials, it seems that he wants to buy a steam engine."

"Do you need them to come and buy a steam engine?" Zhu Gaochi felt that things were not so simple.

Jin Zhong replied: "Yao Guangxiao has already come forward to send someone to Ying Tianfu to investigate, but I don't know if it's too late. ”

Although I know Lian Zining, but now this person's behavior is not in history, there is no Zhu Gaochi who can learn from him, he is very unhappy, and there is a kind of irritability that things are out of control.

"Keep an eye on this person and let me know if there is any sign of it." Zhu Gaochi cautiously explained.

In Beiping.

Lian Zining and his entourage stayed at the post station, and the officials of the Buzheng Department came to invite him, but he refused, and still stayed in the guest room provided by the post station.

The current Lian Zining's grade is not high, and he has not yet become a third-grade official.

But there are traces of the promotion of officials.

This person is a high school leader, famous and famous, and works in the most promising Hanlin Academy in the world, and starting out is the end of others.

So don't look at the current Lian Zining's low official position, he is still just an imperial history.

But Yushi is originally noble, as long as he is a person in the officialdom, he knows that as long as there is no accident, under normal promotion conditions, he will become a bigwig sooner or later.

Therefore, neither the Buzheng Secretary nor the post station will treat Lian Zining slowly, even if it is Zhu Di, although he did not meet in person, he also let the people from the Changshi Mansion visit this person in his name.

Lian Zining, who starts from the end of ordinary people, is of course different from what he does, and in Beiping City, Lian Zining seems very casual.

He was interested in many things in Beiping, and he was more like he had nothing to do than the rest of the officials from Yingtianfu.

At the mines in West Mountain, he watched the daily work of the mine and saw the operation of the steam engine pumping water.

He also politely inquired about several absenteeism.

How long they have been working in the mines, how much they are paid per day, how long they work each day, and whether they are satisfied with their current lives.

There are many people who ask, and there are always some boldness.

A young worker was dissatisfied, "We are all workers, we are not as good as others." The jealousy on the worker's face made Lian Zining interested.

In front of the common people, he had no arrogance at all, and he was more amiable than the officials the workers met, and won the favor of many people.

So Lian Zining asked a lot of questions, and the workers answered more and more content.

"China Heavy Industries is good, but it is only good for their workers."

"After all, China Heavy Industries is just a businessman, not your owner, and it can manage you until you can't do it." Lian Zining said funny.

Lian Zining's words made the workers have too much desire to refute.

"China Heavy Industry is not a business, it is a palace."

"Oh, that's right." Lian Zining "suddenly realized" and seemed very lonely, as if he had just knew.

Is there a good official in Peking who is close to the people? There should be, but not everyone can encounter it.

The workers in the mine have only met Lian Zining now, and Lian Zining and the common people have made the workers very moved.

There is even a person who said: "We are all ordinary people, but China Heavy Industry wants to divide you and me, shouldn't we treat everyone equally." ”

"That's a good level, have you ever read a book?" Lian Zining's face was full of surprise.

The worker's face was red, and he said excitedly: "I used to study in social studies for two years, but because my family was poor, I could recognize some words, so I didn't count myself as having read." ”

Lian Zining boasted: "Reading is good, reading can be reasonable, reasonable, people can be like a person, since you can know words, you should understand the reason better than the people next to you, know the benefits of reading, and smash the pot and sell iron for your children to study." ”

He asked again, "Are you married?" ”

"Not yet."

The worker said embarrassedly.

"When marrying a wife, you must marry a virtuous wife, don't pay attention to other aspects, you can have a good wife, and the family can prosper."

Lian Zining talked to the workers, and the workers loved to listen to what they said.

It wasn't until after Lian Zining left that the stewards dared to come up, and the workers reluctantly bid farewell to Lian Zining.

At this time, there are only old workers, counting the young people just now, how can they talk nonsense, what if it spreads out and provokes right and wrong.

The worker didn't say a word, although his face was a little afraid, but he didn't regret what he said to Lian Zining.

In the eyes of "steady" people, young workers behave "frivolously" and are very likely to cause trouble for themselves.

But it is precisely because there are countless such young people in the world, because of their "fighting" behavior, that the world continues to progress, isn't it?

Everyone is reaping the benefits of these young people and enjoying the benefits of social progress, and should their actions really be judged from above?

The events in the mine reached Zhu Gaochi's ears in 1510.

Zhu Gaochi sighed.

Yes, the world is full of "obstacles".

If it were someone else, would it be easy to let this young worker go? Zhu Gaochi didn't know, but he recognized the young man.

Although the object of dissatisfaction of young people is themselves.

"Admittedly, the young man was right to complain." Zhu Gaochi recognized the young man in front of everyone.

Zhu Gaochi has this mind.

Because he is indeed thinking about the people, after all, his outlook on life, under the mature education system, he has lived for half his life, if he can't even understand this truth, it is just a few years of dry food for nothing.

Lian Zining's behavior touched Zhu Gaochi.

No matter what purpose Lian Zining has, the workers think that China Heavy Industry is the behavior of the palace, and it will not be because the name is different, and the workers will not be able to see it.

The people are limited by the grasp of information and cannot understand many things, but it does not mean that the people are stupid.

No one is a hero, and who doesn't come out of the people.

And Zhu Gaochi is not afraid that the workers will not understand him, because the workers are limited by information, and they only need to explain the truth to them thoroughly, and the common people are the most sensible people.

Just do it.

Zhu Gaochi responded as soon as possible, without any routine, facing the questions raised by the workers and giving the most sincere answers.

On the eve of the plenary business conference, Zhu Gaochi personally wrote a letter to the workers, which was published in the latest issue of the technical newspaper.

Forgot to schedule it
