Chapter 543 Shi Lu’s troubles

Due to technical problems in the train dispatching process, the current train density on this railway line is still difficult to achieve the freight level originally designed by the Ministry of Construction and the Ministry of Transport. Although this situation is caused by many reasons, the responsibility does not lie with a certain person.

He is the head of a department, but as the official in charge of Changqulu Industrial Zone, the pressure of steel production is really on Qiao Zhiya. You must know the main criteria for the executive committee to consider whether he has fulfilled his duties in this position.

That's steel production. As for other people's livelihood, public security, production safety, etc., those are secondary issues.

However, secondary issues cannot be easily ignored. While Qiao Zhiya was still racking his brains for arranging railway trains, some situations also occurred at the Shilu Iron Mine construction site.

Qiao Zhiya hurried to the mine after receiving a phone call from Tian Yeyou. Pit No. 1, which had just started mining for just half a month, had a collapse and landslide, burying workers working at the bottom of the pit. The number of casualties is currently unknown.

.For Qiao Zhiya, this is simply a leak in the house and it rains all night. Before the railway transportation capacity problem has been solved, new troubles have arisen at the source of production here.

Qiao Zhiya's office is not far from the mining area, just over a hillside. When he arrived here, he happened to see a group of disgraced workers withdrawing from the working area, many of whom had bruises on their heads and were being carried out on stretchers.

of the injured.

Qiao Zhiya stopped a foreman he recognized and asked, "Where is the field and mine manager?"

"Report to the chief, Director Tian went down to the mine to check the situation." The foreman responded with some fear.

"Hurry up and call him up!" Qiao Zhiya said anxiously: "The mine just collapsed, what will happen if something happens again!"

The foreman responded and trotted all the way to find Tian Yeyou. The mining method here in Shilu is the same as that of Tiandu Iron Mine, which is open-pit mining. The mine pit is continuously expanded and dug in a spiral mining method. This method is definitely better than the tunnel.

The risk factor of traditional mining is much smaller, but it does not mean that it is very safe. Landslides and landslides are common mining accidents in such mines, but I don’t know how many unlucky people were buried in this mine.

under.

Not long after, Tian Yeyou came up from the mine. He did not forget to put on the safety helmet he brought from before the time travel, as well as the pair of Mechanix full-finger protective gloves that Qiao Zhiya gave him.

"Old Tian, ​​have you forgotten how valuable your own life is? The executive committee has repeatedly emphasized that in any situation, your own safety should be considered first. How dare you go down into the pit? Who will bear the blame if something goes wrong?" Qiao Zhiya took a look.

When I arrived at Tian Yeyou, I couldn't help but complain to him first.

How many workers died in the pit is a minor issue for the executive committee, but if something happened to even the time travellers, it would really be a major liability accident. In the three years since the time travel, although there have been a few

He died of various illnesses, but so far there has never been a precedent for a time traveler to die from a production safety accident. Moreover, Tian Yeyou is now the number one expert among the few professionals in the mining department, and his value to Haihan is not that of those cheap ones.

The labor force is comparable. If something happens to Tian Yeyou, it can be said that Haihan's mining industry will be negatively affected in the next few decades. This is why Qiao Zhiya is so nervous about him.

Tian Yeyou waved his hand and said: "Don't worry, I didn't go down to the bottom of the pit, nor did I go down from the landslide. I took a look at the situation below and was called up."

"How is the situation now? How many casualties are there?" After confirming that Tian Yeyou was safe, Qiao Zhiya asked the real question.

"When the accident happened, a total of three teams were carrying out mining operations below. Some injured people ran out after the landslide. According to the statistics of survivors, there are about 33 people buried below." Tian Yeyou sighed.

Said: "Judging from the situation of the landslide, there should be no survivors. There are more than a dozen injured, and some of them were seriously injured by the rolling rocks and their limbs were broken. The medical conditions here may not be able to support them."

Gotta get through.”

"What is the cause of the accident?" Qiao Zhiya breathed a sigh of relief after hearing the casualties. This number is basically within a controllable range, which will not affect future mine production, nor does it reach the level required by the Executive Committee.

The level of difficulty in dealing with each other. Of course, the most important thing is that the laborers who died at the bottom of the pit were all working in the hard labor camp, and were not informally naturalized naturalized citizens, and their value was not the same.

"It probably has something to do with the rainfall in the past few days." Tian Yeyou explained: "After the surface soil here was excavated, the bottom was filled with gravel. Once it was soaked by rain, the stability was very low. I heard from the workers who escaped,

At that time, a mining truck collapsed a section of the road at the top of the mine pit, which resulted in a chain reaction. When the earth and rocks slid to the bottom of the pit, it was no longer beyond the capabilities of human beings."

"How long will the production of Mine No. 1 be interrupted?" This question is what Qiao Zhiya really cares about.

"That's why I specially called you over to see the scene." Tian Yeyou greeted with gestures: "Come with me to the edge of the mine to see the situation."

Qiao Zhiya followed Tian Yeyou to the edge of the mine. It could be clearly seen that there were no circles of mine car conveying channels on one side of the mine. Instead, a slope formed by gravel led to the bottom of the mine. Due to the current situation,

There are no steam-powered ore transport trucks installed in Shilu here like Tiandu Iron Mine. For the time being, we can only use a more primitive method, with carts pulled by animal power to go all the way around the circular road on the mine wall. This

Once the landslide buries the road, it will be impossible to transport the ore from the lower part of the mine.

"It will take at least three to five working days to re-excavate the conveyor channel." Tian Yeyou pointed at the mine and gave a timetable: "Of course, this is if everything goes well. If it continues to rain in the past few days, it is difficult to guarantee that it will

The next landslide will not occur during construction."

"That means we will lose almost half of our production capacity during this period?" Qiao Zhiya couldn't help but frown: "It's a small matter for us to be delayed for a few days, but the impact on Changhua will be huge.

"

The coal-iron composite industrial base designed by the Ministry of Industry takes full consideration of the distribution of raw materials and energy. It concentrates the coal produced in Annan Heitu Port and the iron ore produced in Shilu in the Changhua area, and then produces steel. Changhua started to produce steel last year.

Several blast furnaces for iron and steel making, as well as a large number of charcoal kilns have been built in advance, and on-the-job training for industrial workers has begun.

After the Shilu Iron Mine here was put into operation, the furnaces in Changhua began to operate day and night. And if these iron-making and steel-making furnaces shut down due to interruptions in the supply of raw materials, it would be a loss to the financial, human and material resources of the metallurgical department.

A huge waste. Liu Xingli from the Ministry of Industry is currently in charge of the work in Changhua. Haihan is currently the most skilled metallurgical expert, and he is also a very strict person. Qiao Zhiya thought of how seriously he checked the ore supply with him every week.

It's a bit of a headache. Losing one or two tons of ore is like cutting off his flesh. If the supply is reduced by half, will this guy take a train to the Shilu Mining Area to have a good time?

Of course, whether Liu Xingli will get angry because of this is still a trivial matter. If it really affects the production arrangements of the metallurgical department in Changhua, then Qiao Zhiya and Tian Yeyou may not have an easy life next time they return to Sanya to report on their work.

.

Qiao Zhiya shook his head and said without waiting for Tian Yeyou's reply: "This won't work. Time is too slow. Production must be resumed as soon as possible. Is there any other way?"

Tian Yeyou spread his hands and said: "We don't have any construction machinery available now. The only solution is manpower. If you want to be fast, you can only invest more manpower. Now there are only about 300 workers left in the No. 1 mine. Every day

You should also know how many square meters of earth and rocks you can dig."

Qiao Zhiya frowned and thought for a while, then responded: "I will assign another five hundred people to you, working in three shifts, don't stop work at night, and get this place taken care of as soon as possible!"

The number of hard laborers employed in the Changshilu construction project has been at least three to four thousand, and the elimination rate has remained at an astonishing 20%. On average, one out of every five people is buried on this land. At present,

The total number of hard labor camp workers put in the two pits of Shilu Iron Mine is about a thousand. Qiao Zhiya wants to transfer people now, so he can only find a way from other construction sites, dig the east wall to make up for the west wall, and solve the problems at the iron mine first.

Let’s talk about it after it’s solved.

"If you give me another five hundred people, the construction period should be shortened by half." Tian Yeyou nodded and said, "I will keep an eye on it."

"Don't let anything go wrong again. Five hundred people is the upper limit. If something goes wrong again, I won't be able to find another five hundred people to fill the hole." Qiao Zhiya could not hide the fatigue on his face. The transfer of these five hundred people is bound to have an impact.

When it comes to the progress of projects in other places under his rule, others will inevitably come to him to complain and argue.

In Danzhou, a hundred miles north of Shilu, the new local administrator Zhang Xin's life is much better than Qiao Zhiya. As the former director of the Danzhou Office, Zhang Xin's time in Danzhou is not too long.

Short, he has a clear understanding of the relationship between people, things, and things in the place, and he was prepared in advance. He got started quickly after Haihan took over the place.

Danzhou's losses during the "pirate" occupation can be said to be the largest among the states and counties in Qiongbei. This not only refers to the casualties of the defenders caused by the pirate army during the siege, but also after the capture of Danzhou

, the people and property plundered by the pirate army in the city. Of course, one thing that most residents in the city feel very lucky is that not long after the fall of Danzhou, the Haihan militia quickly came to regain the city and beat them away.

Those vicious pirates.

The Haihan militia that took over the place immediately announced the authorization letter from the Governor of Guangdong and Guangxi and the Qiongzhou Prefecture, and issued a notice to reassure the people. Before the local government agencies that were destroyed by the war resume normal operations, Danzhou will be managed by the Haihan temporary agency.

, and exercise various administrative powers. If there are people who are unacceptable to this, they can go to Fucheng to appeal on their own - of course, what will happen if someone goes to Fucheng to appeal?

People jump out of the trap.

As the city in Qiongbei region that was most deeply penetrated by Haihan, the Resident Office under Zhang Xin had already removed some local people in Danzhou who were deeply prejudiced or even hostile to Haihan even before the implementation of the "Prairie Fire Plan".

The list of personnel was handed over to Sanya. When the pirates captured Danzhou, they used various excuses to purge these people, and by the way, their property was also confiscated.

After the militia army regained Danzhou, it was difficult for the local people to hear any opposition to Haihan. Even the gentry in Danzhou acquiesced to Haihan's temporary takeover of local government affairs.

For the ordinary people in Danzhou, the way of life has not changed much after the Haihan people took over the place. They still do whatever they have to do. It’s just that when something happens, they no longer need to go to the state government to file a lawsuit. Instead, they have to go to the Haihan

The civil officials of the Han Dynasty came to administer justice.

The ones who really felt the pain were some large local landowners in Danzhou. They were quickly interviewed one by one by the interim management committee, and the content was very consistent, which was to hand over the land in their hands. Of course, this kind of delivery was paid, and it was temporary.

The management committee did not intend to seize their land by force, but the price paid by the Haihan people was indeed difficult to satisfy them.

The Haihan people also gave another solution, which is that the landowners will treat the land as shares and hand it over to Haihan for management, and they will simply enjoy the annual dividends as shareholders. Although this method of income is not as good as theirs

In the past, we had to hire long-term tenants to grow crops by ourselves, but the advantage is that we don’t have to worry about it. If there is enough land, the income can be enough to feed and clothe the family. Moreover, the Haihan people promise to guarantee harvests in droughts and floods, so the risk is much smaller than running it by yourself. The only thing

The disadvantage is that they have to give up the right to control the land, which means they will only have nominal ownership. As for how the land will be used in the future, that is no longer something they can interfere with.

Of course, not everyone will be satisfied with this kind of exchange terms. Due to the power of the Haihan people, most of the small landowners have no choice but to accept it. At least the Haihan people have promised that they can join the Haihan ancestral home at any time. At least they have a way out without starving to death.

.Anyway, everyone knows that as long as you become a Haihan citizen, you no longer need to worry about basic survival needs such as food, clothing, housing, and transportation. Haihan people will naturally arrange them one by one. And some landlords and gentry with more land in their names,

They are not very satisfied with this arrangement. After all, changes in the way the land is managed will have a greater impact on their income than those of small landowners.

It’s true that no one tried to resist the Haihan people’s land policy with force, but these people often ignored a very simple fact – they couldn’t even stop the pirates, so how could they stop the Haihan militia who had beaten away the pirates?
