Lin Hanlong was walking on the road in Bairen New City. The dawn was dim. The smell of trees and weeds filled the dewy air in the early morning. The fire of the gas street lamp had been extinguished at night. He was wearing a blue cloth coat, a mask and a hat.
A cleaner with a bamboo ID badge on his chest is cleaning the stone road.
If it weren't for the gas street lights here, Lin Hanlong would even think he was walking on the road of an old new village built in the 1960s.[]
He didn't meet many elders on the road. Most of the elders either hadn't gotten up yet or were sleeping in the workshops and offices. However, the maids had already gone out one after another. They were carrying baskets and straw bags, chatting and laughing in small groups.
We headed towards the model farm. Since having maids, many people have started to cook in their own homes. Therefore, the general office has also kept pace with the times and changed to issue food subsidies and special meat, egg and milk supply cards to individuals, no longer in the cafeteria.
Free meals provided.
Lin Hanlong returned to the old apartment that he had recently moved into. He was among the second batch of apartments allocated to him. He was a bachelor and was allocated a small apartment of 40 square meters in accordance with the policy. Although the house was small, it was enough to accommodate himself and his maid.
Already.
In the middle of the night, he sent the maid home in advance to sleep. There is no security problem in Bairen City. Even in an industrial zone where people come and go, people without passes cannot move there. Even for elders, it is the safest.
's green zone.
The maid would get up at five o'clock when she got home, so that bath water and breakfast would be ready when he got home.
"Take a bath or eat first?" the maid asked.
"Take a shower. I'll take a nap first after washing." Lin Hanlong was very tired, but not hungry. And there was still time at eight o'clock, so he had to take a nap first to recover.
The room decorated by Zhen Qian was very simple, with fresh and bright colors. The furniture was all in IKEA style. Lin Hanlong didn't like the so-called "classical" style. He took the time to take a shower, wearing pajamas on the wooden-framed wooden floor with thick cotton padding.
He lay down on the fabric sofa and immediately fell asleep. He woke up on time at 7:30. The maid had already heated up breakfast for him: two Minnan-style roasted meat rice dumplings. She is from southern Fujian and is good at cooking.
Good roasted pork rice dumplings. Next to it is a glass bottle sealed with cardboard, sterilized paper, cotton yarn and fire paint. It contains pasteurized milk that has just been delivered from the farm in the morning.
The maid prepared a toothbrush and face wash. The toothpaste has long been used up. It is difficult to produce toothpaste that fully meets the standards of the old time and space, and the chemical industry department lacks sufficient raw materials and interest. Mo Xiaoan made a substitute by himself:
Bamboo salt.
The so-called bamboo salt is made by filling a moso bamboo tube with table salt and then baking it at high temperature. After removing the burnt bamboo tube, the salt has condensed into lumps and is ground into so-called "bamboo salt". Then it is filled with fine powder that has been carefully polished by a bicycle lathe.
Bamboo pipes became a commodity of the Ministry of Light Industry and were sold to elders, naturalized people and indigenous people. It is said that the sales in Guangzhou are very good.
The elders don't care whether this thing is as magical as it was boasted about in the old days. Anyway, since ancient times, Chinese people have used salt to brush their teeth and rinse their mouths. It is at least effective for teeth and oral hygiene.
Lin Hanlong drank the milk and asked the maid to peel the rice dumplings. He put on his old computer bag, put on his sunhat and ate while walking out of the house.
As soon as he walked out of the apartment door, he saw Hailin from the woodworking factory walking sleepily on the road. He knew that Hailin was also one of those who often worked overtime, and he probably had just come off the night shift. The work in the woodworking factory was no easier than in other departments, and he also got
The allocation of resources has always been very low, and the forestry department has a lot of grievances.
Hailin didn't see Lin Hanlong and walked over on his own. Lin Hanlong knew that he was also going to the Works and Energy Commission compound.
The Works Energy Commission holds a regular meeting of elders at eight o'clock every morning to summarize yesterday's production status and arrange today's specific work. Because there are the largest number of elders serving in the Works Energy Commission, the conference room is also very large, enough to accommodate 150 people for a meeting. It is very large.
The windows can cast enough sunlight, and the specially designed walls allow the speaker to be heard clearly by everyone present without using a loudspeaker.
In order to save space and materials, the seats are all simple and sturdy wooden long-backed chairs fixed to the ground. There is also a long wooden board protruding from the back of the front seat for participants to record and read.
The "veteran senior engineers" who serve in the Work Energy Commission have arrived one after another. They are divided into many small circles and talk in low voices, like a hive. From time to time, some people will excitedly shout out a few words of "grass sex",
Words like "silly b".
Lin Hanlong saw Ji Tuisi talking: "...Viagra? Emperor Zhao still dares to say that? I'm just waiting for him to recruit people for me to fill the chemical plant! No matter what, he has to give me 20,000 people. You need to know photosynthesis
The process can be written on a blackboard! Not to mention the molecular formula. With our miserable level of village-run chemical industry, we will not be able to create it for another fifty years...
Someone next to him was still making noises: Indian magic oil, Spanish flies and so on. There were also people who were preparing to sell shake pills and ice poison to the Qing Dynasty. There were weird plans everywhere. Lin Hanlong found it interesting. At this time, someone shouted: "
It’s a meeting, it’s a meeting, stop talking!”
The conference room slowly became quiet, and everyone returned to their seats.
Zhan Wuya hurried in with several naturalized secretaries. As the owner of a small machinery factory, he was a jack of all trades, so he had almost no time to rest. Lin Hanlong saw that he was all black and a little burnt.
His work clothes were stained. I guess he was probably in the heat treatment workshop just now.
There was no nonsense, no clichés, and no opening remarks at the regular meetings of the Work Energy Commission. Zhan Wuya gave a brief explanation of the statistical tables compiled at five o'clock in the morning, and then talked about today's tasks and key points, especially
Problems and requirements reported by various departments, and any solutions and answers must be explained at the meeting.
As usual, there is no discussion in the morning meeting, because there are too many elders present, and a lot of time will be spent talking to each other. The entire morning meeting is always controlled within thirty minutes.
Before the meeting ended, Zhan Wuya distributed documents to the department heads, and then he coughed:
"According to the instructions in the document, we will make an estimate of the human resources and skills that our department needs to increase and submit it to the Planning Institute before June 30."
There was a buzz below. Shortage of manpower has always been a bottleneck for various departments to expand production. Every time I make a report, there are always three obstacles. Why did it suddenly change this time? Could it be that Operation Engine has officially started? Even if it has already started,
We won't be transporting people back for a while.
"The Planning Institute plans to conduct preliminary classification and training for the people collected during Operation Engine. Try to arrange some basic vocational training in the quarantine camp, so that they can serve as apprentices and enter internships immediately after being transported back to Lingao.
So I hope everyone can report the approximate number of people and skills needed by the department." Zhan Wuya said, "The Planning Institute will implement the personnel training plan based on the plan reported by everyone. Note that the total number of reported requirements must be consistent with the total quota plan on the document.
It’s okay to exceed 510%, but not too much.”
Finally, Zhan Wuya reported the recent major safety accident with a serious expression. The boiler explosion, the biggest killer in the Senate's industrial system, has recently given up its throne to the steel factory: the steel factory just evaporated five naturalized migrant workers a few days ago.
The molten iron poured out of the burst ladle condensed on the ground, leaving no trace of people. Coupled with several previous accidents, the death rate in the steel plant has exceeded that of boiler explosions. Ever since the steel plant was able to produce stable quality
After steel, the quality of boilers has greatly improved.
"Comrades, we must take this as a warning!" Zhan Wuya looked at the various elders below and wondered if his earnest words were of any use.
"There are also fire prevention and typhoon prevention work in summer," Zhan Wuya said, "I won't say more about fire prevention. Typhoon prevention is very important. We have dozens of times more chimneys than before, and we have also built many new high-truss structure factories.
.Typhoons will become more active after July.”
To address the issue of production safety, the Planning Institute has prepared to conduct a major safety inspection to inspect the equipment in the industrial zone to remove hidden dangers - especially the equipment and facilities manufactured in the early stages, which were shoddily manufactured due to limited conditions at the time.
Everyone whispered to each other again, and Zhan Wuya then assigned the task of arranging the production of screw presses at the Machinery General Factory.
"It is used for manufacturing grains for military factories." Zhan Wuni specifically explained that the force does not need to be too large, but it requires a stable and slow output pressure. If the pressure is too strong, it will explode directly. grains of different shapes and uses can be made by changing molds and adjusting
To solve the problem of pressure, not only can it be used to make blasting charges, but it can also be used to make rocket propellant: a grain column with consistent shape and density is an important guarantee for the consistency of rocket trajectory, which is of great significance.
Lin Hanlong's optical factory has also received a formal task of producing telescopes. The army and navy each have a large number of orders. In addition to simple telescopes for officers, the army's orders also include more advanced artillery team telescopes used by artillery. Lin Hanlong thought that this was not a big problem.
, I wonder if the manpower and equipment can be expanded? In addition, there is an embarrassing power problem. The optical factory does not have its own power workshop, so it uses the power output from the power workshop of the Ministry of Science and Technology. This kind of power output is not very stable, and it needs to be stable.
There are hidden dangers for optical factories that output power to operate equipment such as grinders.
These issues will have to be discussed with Zhan Wuya later to come up with a plan. Lin Hanlong thought about the unfinished discussion to be continued.
