After dressing as a widow

Chapter 292

After several months of rapid expansion, the current cement plant is very different from the original one. After the implementation of two shifts, the output of the cement plant in a month is very large, and it is continuously pulled to the counties and townships in Lizhou to build cement roads.

Since this road was built by Lin Zhen alone with money and materials, the state government authorized him to collect a ten-year road tax. This kind of tax is specially for those merchants who transport large quantities of goods, and pay a certain tax according to the weight.

Ten years later, the taxes and taxes on the cement road belonged to the state government office.

Lin Zhen felt that he might not even stay in Lizhou for ten years, and he had no objection to the regulations proposed by the state government. When he started building these roads, he never thought about charging any fees.

"Before you reported it, you found that there were several waves of people spying on the cement plant. Have you found out anything?"

The director of the cement factory said: "Back to the boss, we caught a few people, but they didn't spit out anything useful. They only said that they were curious about our cement factory and wanted to see it. They had no other thoughts."

"We have no choice but to lock people up first."

"Take me to have a look." Lin Zhen knew that sooner or later, there would be such peeping people in several workshops of the Goufen Workshop, but the things in the Goufen Workshop were not irreplaceable, they were all small troubles.

The cement factory is different. At the moment, there is no substitute for cement. It is easy to shape and dries quickly. It is a powerful tool for repairing bridges, roads, houses and city walls. Since three months ago, only They found dozens of people who came here to peep here, let alone others they didn't find.

Lin Zhen walked ahead, and soon arrived at the place where the peeping people were detained, and saw that these people were no different from ordinary workers, in their 20s, 30s, and [-]s, with dark and rough skin, and dodgy eyes , if the factory director hadn't said what they had done in advance, no one would have seen that they would do such a thing.

These people are too complicated, and Lin Zhen knew at a glance that they, inexperienced people alone, couldn't ask why, so he said to the cement factory manager behind him: "When I leave later, take them to State government office."

"Yes." The factory manager heaved a sigh of relief. He was always worried about being here, and he was finally relieved to hand it over to Lin Zhen.

He said: "Boss, go and have a look inside our factory, and show us if there is anything that needs improvement."

"It's natural to have a look when you come here. Our factory has suddenly expanded in the past few months. We must take precautions to prevent any accidents." What Lin Zhen is most worried about is this. In this era of cement production, due to the lack of large All power tools rely on manpower, so it takes a lot of manpower to turn raw materials into raw materials and then into clinker. This is why his workshop can swallow so many people who come to work here. reason.

When there is more manpower, safety becomes a big problem. Lin Zhen wrote two rigid regulations to ensure the safety of workers and prevent accidents.

The factory manager also knew that this was what Lin Zhen valued the most, and said, "Boss, don't worry, I will patrol the factory every day, and the people below have also instructed and instructed."

"It's true to take precautions. An accident is just compensation for us, but it is a disaster for the workers' families." Lin Zhen took the factory manager and the small stewards behind him to the factory where the production was carried out. side walk.

The cement production process produces a lot of dust, so workers wear masks and hats that can cover their heads and necks.

When Lin Zhen and the others arrived, it happened that the workers were pushing a new batch of raw materials in with a wheelbarrow to carry out the first process.

Yang Gui, who came from Yongzhou, did the work of the first process. He followed many people to move down the raw materials and send them to the factory building.

From a distance, he saw people wearing masks and hats, whose faces could not be seen clearly, but whose clothes were different from those of the workers. "Who are those people?"

There was an old employee who was working together. He glanced at it and said, "The manager in the factory, come down to check again. I'm afraid there may be problems in the factory."

"Oh." Yang Gui bent down and continued to pick up the limestone into the basket, and then carried it into the factory with his partner.

This is the seventh month he has been working in the cement factory, and he often thinks of bringing his family to Lizhou, which is definitely the most correct thing he has done in his life.

Now the family lives in the factory building. Although my wife cannot work in the workshop due to physical reasons, she can take care of the two children at home and open up five acres of wasteland by the way.

I went to register last month. A few days ago, the people from the state government office just distributed the plowshares and grain seeds, and they are taking the two children to plant the grain seeds these days.

The local villagers have said that with the use of composted manure water, the grain production can be increased to a little over 200, which is more than they used to in Yongzhou.

The life of their family is getting better and better. Apart from deducting some factory fees in the first three months, they now have a little savings in their hands.

Although there are not many, Yang Gui is very confident that the days to come will definitely get better and better.

There are many, many people who think like Yang Gui. Some of them were alone when they came to Lizhou, but they couldn't help but ask people to write letters one after another, take them back to their hometown, and quickly let those who stayed at home Also come to Lizhou.

It's good to come to Lizhou, I have food and clothing, what else can I ask for.

After inspecting the cement factory, he found that the factory manager really managed the cement factory very well. Lin Zhen took those caught back to the state capital.

As soon as he entered the city gate, he found a group of merchants who were obviously dressed differently from most people entering the city. The leader tied his hair into a high ponytail, braided it with multicolored silk threads, and wore a black narrow sleeve robe.

Lin Zhen took a look and found that figure from the back very familiar.

Suddenly, the man on the horse tilted his head to talk to the person next to him, and Lin Zhen saw his side face.

Lin Zhen stared blankly, and ran over on horseback.

The crisp sound of horseshoes was very different from those without hooves. The group of merchants looked over one after another. Seeing Lin Zhen coming straight towards their boss, they looked at him warily.

Lin Xiaoyao, who was riding on the horse, turned her head and saw her third brother at a glance. She narrowed her eyes slightly with a smile: "Third brother!"

Lin Zhen had already come to him, riding on the horse and wrapping his arms around his shoulders.

Lin Xiaoyao, who has always been strong, unceremoniously picked him up from the horse, hugged him hard for a while before putting him back on Hongzao's back: "I haven't seen you for more than two years, I miss you gone."

He ate and lived with Lin Zhen when he was a teenager, and he has a deep relationship. Seeing his current appearance, Lin Zhen was very pleased: "You are more energetic than me. You have received the letters I sent. No?"

"I received it, so I want to come and see the third brother with my own eyes, and see the excitement."

Lin Xiaoyao and Lin Zhen have a three-point similarity, but their height has inherited the tall stature of the Lin family, and now they look like birthmarks with pregnancy moles, wearing a man's narrow-sleeved gown, with their hair tied up high, he is completely handsome man.

"I won't let you down, go to the city quickly, take a rest first, and eat something." He said, Lin was really happy, and even pawed his hooves happily with the red dates under his feet.

The two brothers rode into the city on horseback, and Lin Xiaoyao was immediately attracted by the bustling Lizhou capital. He had also heard about Lizhou before. How much oil and water.

But the state capital of Lizhou in front of him is not like this. The look of anger on people's faces makes people feel that this day is going to be rushed.

Lin Xiaoyao had been curious about the land under her feet for a long time, and asked Lin Zhen: "Third brother, the cement you mentioned is what built this road?"

"That's right. At present, cement roads are paved for sixty miles away from the state capital. At the end of this year, the counties and counties will be connected to the state capital. In the later stage, the roads in the villages will be repaired to the doorsteps of the people. "

"Such a huge project consumes a lot of manpower and material resources."

"It's all worth it. You come from Dongyang, don't you have a deep understanding?" On Changping Street, people riding horses, sitting in sedan chairs, walking, rubbing shoulders, and people in the caravan who followed Lin Xiaoyao looked at the people in front of them. The scene is very surprising.

Lin Xiaoyao was very convinced by Lin Zhen's words. Indeed, the road they got off from the river mouth in Dongyang County to the state capital was all cement road, not only fast, but also smooth, and it took only one day to get there.

As the two brothers talked, they arrived at the door of Lin's shop. The weather was getting hot, and all the doors were opened, so people outside could see the furnishings and goods inside at a glance.

Whether it's the long counter, the workers in uniform, or the bright ground, people can't help but want to go in and have a look.

Lin Zhen pointed to the shop and said to Lin Xiaoyao: "That's the shop I mentioned to you in the letter. It specializes in selling jade powder, toilet water, lipstick and other things."

"I also want to bring a lot of goods back this time. The jade face powder you gave me before, third brother, sold very well."

Lin Zhen looked at him: "There should be some merchants over there to sell your goods, right?"

"Yes, but my place is far away, and it is difficult to preserve the dew. If I can transport it there, I will still make a lot of money."

"And third brother, the quantity of goods from your workshop is still not enough, and there are very few of them at my place."

Lin Zhen rubbed his nose. In fact, he had already realized that Yurong powder and other commodities should no longer be limited to Dayu, and some had more ideas and sold the goods to neighboring countries at a higher price.

This gap is huge, and Lin Zhen's workshops are not able to supply it at all, which leads to the fact that there are still not many jade powder flower dews in Dayu's territory.

Lin Zhendao: "Tomorrow I'll bring you to take a closer look, and we're going back to the state government office now."

Lin Xiaoyao smiled narrowly, and leaned into his ear: "Okay, Mrs. Zhizhou."

Lin Zhen looked at him, "Well, Lin Xiaoyao, even I dare to be narrow-minded."

"Sooner or later, that kid is a wolf, and he will never give up until he achieves his goal. You can only be tied to him for the rest of your life."
