Chapter 656 Site Selection
Now that the loom was on the way, Wang Xuexin was thinking about a question: where should the weaving factory be located?

Setting up a factory does not depend on the terrain.

When fighting a war, what the terrain requires is to be condescending, to advance, to attack, to retreat, and to defend, and so on. In fact, what you need to set up a factory is one thing: transportation.

In fact, the location selection of modern factories is more particular, such as whether the scenery is beautiful, whether there will be pollution, whether the infrastructure is perfect, whether the labor cost is high, whether the education level is qualified, and so on.

But that is a lot of issues that need to be considered when there are many factories competing... In the case of fierce competition, once a little detail is not considered, it may cause troubles in production and continue to increase production costs. The result is that the factory is eliminated in its class.

But Wang Xuexin basically didn't need to consider these issues, because there were no weaving factories within the scope of the Eighth Route Army's base area, even Yuncheng controlled by the Jinsui Army was no exception.

This is determined by the special circumstances of the war years.

When Yan Laoxi was in Taiyuan before, he had several weaving factories. After Taiyuan was invaded by devils, they brought out military equipment instead of looms.

Later, due to the tension of the war, as soon as there was any money, it was all invested in military construction. For things like weaving, people who could weave by hand did not have much demand for a while.

So looking at the entire area controlled by the Shanxi Eighth Route Army and the Jinsui Army, there are no large-scale weaving factories... To be precise, there are no weaving factories based on looms.

Under such circumstances, Wang Xuexin's weaving factory can be said to have no competitors, so it can be placed anywhere, as long as the raw materials and finished products are easier to transport.

If you only consider this point, it is most suitable for the weaving factory to be located in Yuncheng, because the transportation in Yuncheng is very convenient, and it is easier to recruit workers because of the people's foundation.

But after thinking about it, Wang Xuexin still felt that it was not suitable.

The reason is that this is a time of war, especially at this time when China's foreign highways are blocked and supplies will fall into another period of shortage, and the weaving factory is likely to be bombed by devils or sneaked by secret agents.

Where should it be built?
Wang Xuexin intends to ask Li Yunlong. After all, this guy has been fighting guerrillas in this area for many years and is familiar with the terrain.

At this time, Li Yunlong was losing his temper at the regiment headquarters.

It turned out that just now, the headquarters sent a telegram to Li Yunlong, saying that the independent regiment was only responsible for the garrison of Yuncheng and not the management.

Li Yunlong didn't understand, so he took the telegram and asked Zhao Gang: "I said Lao Zhao, what do you mean? What's the difference between garrison and management? Let's guard here with guns. Isn't this place under our control? We still have it." Can't you decide?"

Zhao Gang took the telegram and looked at it, and then said "oh": "The superior means that we have the final say on military affairs, and we will make separate arrangements on economic management!"

Li Yunlong still didn't understand at first, so he said "Oh", secretly thinking that as long as I can make the decision here, it will be fine!

Just as he was about to get up and leave, he felt a "squeak" in his heart, and then he turned around and asked, "Old Zhao, what you're talking about is not an economy under our control, does it include the salt lake and the surrounding mines?"

"Of course it includes!" Zhao Gang replied: "In addition, there are taxes for the common people, and sales and so on. Anything related to money will be managed by the superior!"

In Zhao Gang's view, this was a very normal thing. The Eighth Route Army did not emphasize individualism, and all benefits were managed and distributed by the headquarters. If it was not because of Li Yunlong, even the spoils of war should be handed over.

But Li Yunlong didn't agree when he heard it, he jumped up and said: "Fuck, I thought it was a fat job to be stationed in Yuncheng, so I can finally stop begging grandpa and grandma for military expenses like before, his mother Yes! Work is our share, enjoyment is not our responsibility, is there such a reason in the world..."

"Li Yunlong!" Zhao Gang slapped the table angrily, and scolded: "Who are you scolding? We are the Eighth Route Army, do you think we are the king of the Bandit Mountain? Or just like the stubborn army and the Jinsui army, we can eat wherever we are stationed." Where are you going? If you are in charge of the money, don’t you also want to collect the people’s fat and anoint and ride on the heads of the people like them to do their best?”

"Don't talk nonsense with me selling cloth with your eyes closed!" Li Yunlong replied without giving in: "Who wants to be like the grandsons of the stubborn army and the Jinsui army? They are still tyrannical! Let's shoot people with guns Those who were beaten to death couldn’t even eat enough..."

"Are you still calling?" Zhao Gang was so angry that his fingers trembled: "The soldiers didn't speak at all, but you complained about it. Is there anyone like you who is the head of the regiment?"

Li Yunlong's words were indeed inappropriate.

The Eighth Route Army wants everyone to suffer together, and there is no complaint from top to bottom.

And if this complaint is made, especially if it is made by Li Yunlong, the head of the regiment, it will have an impact on morale.

But Li Yunlong didn't mean to complain.

"I'm talking from the perspective of the army!" Li Yunlong said: "If we are alone, it's no big deal to cut off our heads, and we are afraid of starvation? But if we don't say it, it doesn't mean that this problem doesn't exist. The order of the superior is 'Yourself Let’s start to have enough food and clothing’, but we are either fighting or training, where is the time to ‘have enough food and clothing’? It’s hard to get to a good place like Yuncheng, and the economy is not allowed!”

Speaking of which, Li Yunlong sat down on the kang, and said, "Well, let me tell you, the political commissar! How will the independent group live in the future? If you can think of a way, I, Li Yunlong, will give you three big bangs!"

This time Zhao Gang fell silent.

What Li Yunlong said is indeed a problem. The independent group is stationed in Yuncheng, but Yuncheng's economy is not allowed to be touched at all...Then the independent group might as well go back to Zhongtiao Mountain, where they can grow some food and dig some wild vegetables.

Seeing that Zhao Gang was silent, Li Yunlong said softly, "Old Zhao, why aren't you enlightened? I counted yesterday, and after deducting the comrades who were injured and downsized, our whole regiment only has more than 300 people. I also Thinking about recruiting some soldiers from Yuncheng to supplement it, otherwise more than 2000 people will guard Yuncheng? The devils have built two lines of defense and used a division to defend the city! Next time the devils call, our manpower will be enough How many times has the devil charged?"

"No one said that recruiting is not allowed!" Zhao Gang replied.

"It's easy for you to say, just touch your mouth and it's over!" Li Yunlong replied with staring eyes: "You don't have to eat when you recruit people? The superior asked us to 'self-reliance', and let the soldiers 'self-reliance'? Let them finish the job Come back to training after living? Still recruiting people, it would be good to be able to feed more than 2000 people, what will the recruited people eat?"

Speaking of which, Li Yunlong crossed his legs angrily and sulked.

Zhao Gang felt that this was indeed a problem. It was okay for the Eighth Route Army not to pay military salaries, and there were still people who were willing to join, but if even the stutterers couldn't solve the problem without basic food and clothing, wouldn't they just wait to starve to death?
