Siheyuan starts from a better life

Chapter 314, Qin Family Village
After a short rest after eating, Ma Youcai took Jiang Yan to the place where they practiced steel.

"Leader, this is the blast furnace of our township."

When he came to the steelmaking site, Jiang Yan could only describe the scene here in two words: shocking and spectacular.

This scene was even more shocking than Jiang Yan seeing the sea for the first time.

In this huge threshing field, there are tens of thousands of people gathered here, and there are dozens of blast furnaces, large and small.

As the saying goes, there are [-] people, and there are no boundaries. Looking at the bustling crowd, it is the first time that I feel that this is a very correct thing.

People in the scene were busy shouting slogans, some were adding firewood to the blast furnace, some were adding coal, and the main thing was that the work was in full swing, and everyone looked quite excited.

"Leader, I would like to trouble you for guidance." Ma Youcai spoke to Jiang Yan with a slightly smug look.

Jiang Yan didn't say a word, and directly led the people to the small blast furnace below to have a close look.

The so-called iron-making furnace here is a yellow clay furnace about three or four meters high, with a chimney about one meter high made of semi-circular tiles on it.

Jiang Yan walked to a small blast furnace that had just been built, probed into it, and shook his head secretly.

The hearth of this furnace is made of ordinary earth bricks, and the lower part of the furnace is artificially blown by a cylindrical bellows.The box is nailed with wooden strips, about two meters long and about 80 centimeters in diameter.

The piston in the middle is also made of wood, and chicken feathers or duck feathers are tied around it for sealing.The handle of the bellows is very long and can be pushed and pulled by two people at the same time.

To be honest, how can you do steel training in this blast furnace without refractory bricks? This furnace is estimated to be scrapped once, let alone steel training, you can’t even produce iron.

Jiang Yan looked up and saw a scene of blazing fire in the venue, with sparks of fire everywhere and black smoke everywhere.

There was a sulfur-smelling smoke in the air, and even the sky was somewhat obscured by this smoke.

No matter men, women, old or young are all performing their duties, they are busy, and there are bursts of shouts from time to time, as if some stove is about to be turned on.

Looking at these people, Jiang Yan didn't want to care about these things at first, but after thinking about it, Jiang Yan decided to take action.

Even if you can't produce qualified steel, it's a good thing to practice some usable iron, otherwise it would be a waste of resources.

"Leader, how is it? Is our construction qualified?" Seeing Jiang Yan finished his visit, Ma Youcai asked Jiang Yan with hope.

Jiang Yan didn't answer right away, but took out a cigarette from his pocket, lit it, and took a deep puff.

"How many furnaces have you opened in total, and how many are successful."

Hearing Jiang Yan's words, Ma Youcai had an unnatural look on his face.

"Here, three furnaces have been opened, and none of them have been successful. Then let the leaders guide and guide."

Hearing this, Jiang Yan nodded, took a deep breath, and then said: "If you want to cultivate steel, you have to listen to me. You can do whatever I say. If you can't do this, You can hire another Gao Ming! We don’t want this thing either.”

Hearing Jiang Yan's words, Ma Youcai pondered for a moment.

"Leader, is the situation that serious? This really can't produce steel."

Jiang Yan didn't say a word, smoking a cigarette with cold eyes.

Seeing Jiang Yan like this, the smart Ma Youcai knew that the problem was quite serious. He was a chief engineer, so he had no reason to make this joke to himself.

"Leader, let me discuss with the leadership team."

"You're in charge of discussing, I'm just wandering around here." Jiang Yan interrupted him, and led him to the side.

"Director, this leader is too unreasonable."

"That's right, look at his attitude, he clearly looks down on us."

Seeing Jiang Yan leading the people away without saying a word, the people around Ma Youcai started talking in a hurry.

"That's enough. He's a leader, so don't talk nonsense. Besides, he's an expert. Experts, you know! If you have a university knowledge, you can call all the leaders and hold a meeting."

After Ma Youcai finished speaking, he turned his head and walked towards the office building. The steel talker looked at me and I looked at you. After looking at him, he separated and informed the relevant leaders.

"Boss, let's go! No, we want this thing, there is no need to put yourself in it." From Jiang Yan's demeanor just now, the clever Xu Damao couldn't guess that this matter is a bit difficult to handle. Afterwards, the people from the commune began to persuade Jiang Yan.

At this moment, he just wanted to give himself a few big mouths. If he hadn't talked too much, he wouldn't have made his boss so embarrassing.

He Yuzhu also persuaded after hearing Xu Damao's words: "Boss, what Da Mao said is good, let's not take this muddy water, or let's go!"

Hearing the comfort from these two people, Jiang Yan's heart warmed up.

"Okay! Don't persuade me. I know what to do. It depends on how they choose. I didn't do this for them, but for these people."

After Jiang Yan finished speaking, he pointed to the person who was doing it in full swing.

Seeing these people, He Yuzhu and Xu Damao didn't say a word.

Although I say that I can't change the torrent of history, and I want to be wise and protect myself, but seeing these people, I still feel soft-hearted. Although I can't help the world at the same time, but I have encountered it, and I can help if I can. Otherwise, I will not be able to get over the hurdle in my heart.

"Zhu Zi, Jiang Technology, why are you here?"

Hearing someone calling him, Jiang Yan looked up and saw dozens of people coming from a distance with tools, wearing worn-out clothes, all patched, and the original material could hardly be seen.

The luggage on their backs was also dilapidated, and some people even wore straw sandals that they wove themselves.Not to mention the tools brought, some people only had some sticks in their hands.

"Dad, why are you here? It's not why you are dressed like this."

The people who came were from Qinjiazhuang, and the leader was Qin Fengshou, the village head and branch secretary of Qinjiazhuang, and Qin Daniu, He Yuzhu's father-in-law, was also among them.

Jiang Yan was taken aback when he saw their outfits.

What's the situation with them? The Qin family village is poor, but it's not at this level!What's up with the rags and the tool?
Why did only two cows come here? I clearly remembered that when I went to Qinjiazhuang last time, there were several cows in sight. Besides, the cows were very old, and the number of cows was wrong!

Qinjiazhuang is a big village, with about 300 households, no matter how strong the labor force is, there are more than 200 people, how come these more than [-] laborers come here, after all, they only bring out two-thirds The strong labor force, is something wrong?
When a group of people from Qinjiazhuang rushed to the crowd, Jiang Yan asked Qin Fengshou when he saw Qin Fengshou.

"Uncle Qin, what happened? Why do you dress up like this?"

Hearing Jiang Yan's question, Qin Fengshou carefully looked around and pulled Jiang Yan to speak softly: "Nothing happened. Don't worry."

Hearing Qin Fengshou's words, Jiang Yan felt relieved knowing that Qin Fengshou seemed to have sensed something to do so.
