Back to 1980: Please Love Me Again

Chapter 281

Pingyang County, Zheshan Commune.

Sure enough, the young man couldn't hold his breath, and what Xiao Ma said made Secretary Zhang very unhappy.

"Xiao Ma, hurry up and pull it down, Xiao Zhao won't know this truth?!"

Fearing that Xiao Ma would run away in anger to the "financial owner", Secretary Zhang quickly dispelled his desire to continue talking.

Pony sat aside a little unconvinced and said nothing.

"Xiao Zhao, you mean to produce stones directly on the mountain?"

Sure enough, Jiang was still hot, and Secretary Zhang quickly understood what Zhao Wenmu was thinking.

"We actually thought about using the resources in the mountainous areas of our commune to build some lime kilns and gravel yards, but the benefits of building lime kilns are not good, and the gravel yards don't have money to buy equipment, so it's nothing."

Zhao Wenmu made a special trip to visit the lime kiln in Zheshan Commune, and the construction is quite thoughtful.

The two lime kilns are built against a natural cliff, with a total height of about ten meters.Workers use carts to transport limestone to the top platform and pour it into the lime kiln.

The burnt lime is taken out from the bottom outlet and transported away from the bottom platform.

If the topographical conditions were not used skillfully, firstly, the construction difficulty of the lime kiln would be several times higher, and secondly, at least a slope tens of meters long should be built to feed the kiln roof with a height of more than ten meters.

Although the lime kiln is well built, the lime produced can only be sold to nearby villages due to inconvenient transportation, and is rarely transported to cities with huge demand for lime.

Because of this, the lime kiln is currently almost idle.

Fortunately, there is no need to purchase machinery and equipment to build a lime kiln, at most it is a waste of manpower and construction materials.

The production of stones is not so simple. Not only professional crushers are needed, but also vibrating screens, transmission belts, and supporting water and electricity facilities. The investment alone is not a small sum.

Zheshan Commune has a gravel field.

However, it was a very small human-powered workshop, relying on the villagers to smash the stones into small stones with a big hammer, and the production efficiency was not the same as that of a modern factory.

"Secretary Zhang, as long as the road is built, the products of the quarry and lime kiln can be sold to the county or even the surrounding counties and cities; and as long as the quarry is built, the materials for road construction will also be available."

A perfect chicken-and-egg cycle.

There is only one problem, the chicken or the egg, the same must come first.

"Then Xiao Zhao, are you planning to open a quarry?"

Secretary Zhang was visibly agitated. He just waited for Zhao Wenmu to nod his head, and he immediately shook his hands.

"Uncle Zhang, don't hold me alone! My second uncle, Zhao Xuelei, go find him!"

Qingshan Building Materials Factory in Shanqian Village has begun to take shape, and Zhao Xuelei certainly doesn't mind expanding the business again.

Secretary Zhang thought so too. Apart from Zhao Wenmu, only Qingshan Building Materials Factory in Zheshan Commune had the strength to open the quarry.

So early the next morning, Secretary Zhang simply took Zhao Wenmu's car to Shanqian Village together.

Hearing the intention of coming, Zhao Xuelei looked distressed, grabbed Secretary Zhang's hand and began to cry:
"Old Zhang, our village is poor! Qingshan Factory is poor, we don't have the money to set up a quarry! My car belongs to Mr. Zhao..."

He howled for a long time without crying.

"Okay, old Zhao, stop acting! Don't blame me for not telling you, this is a good deal!"

Secretary Zhang said so, Zhao Xuelei couldn't continue acting, he said with a dry smile:

"Secretary Zhang told us, why is this a good deal?"

In fact, Zhao Xuelei is also thinking quickly in his mind that there is a huge demand for stones in the market. As long as there are good products, there is no need to worry about sales. The only problem is that the initial investment is large and the transportation cost is relatively high.

A large investment is relative, and Qingshan Factory naturally has this strength nowadays.

There is no way to transport it. The high-quality limestone mines are concentrated in the southern area of ​​the commune, which is far away from the county seat, and the key is all bad roads.

Tractors have to lie on the road.

"As long as the gravel yard is built, the rent in Daliu Mountain and Mang Mountain will be halved within five years. In addition, the commune will also build a gravel road from Liushan to the county town!"

Secretary Zhang discussed with several cadres early in the morning, and finally chose the location of the gravel field in the area of ​​Dayu Mountain and Mang Mountain.

The limestone of these two mountains is of very good quality. It is no exaggeration to say that the soil layer two or three meters thick on the surface of the mountain is scraped off, and the bottom is all limestone.

From here to the county seat, you will inevitably pass through the commune, and there are six impoverished mountain villages along the way. There is already a dirt road here, and the cost of renovation is much lower, and this road can also drive the economy along the route to the greatest extent.

Hearing Secretary Zhang's words, Zhao Xuelei's heart skipped a beat.

If the commune repairs the road, of course he is willing to build a gravel yard!

"Not only that, the lime kiln in the commune was also transferred to the gravel field!"

Secretary Zhang came here with the utmost sincerity, not to mention that the lime kiln has always been of limited use in their hands. If Zhao Xuelei was handed over to manage it, it might not be able to regain its vitality.

At this point, Zhao Xuelei has been completely tempted.

However, he still pretended to be hesitant, and said with some embarrassment:

"Old Zhang! We are really..."

Secretary Zhang pressed him not to give him a chance to perform, seeing that Zhao Xuelei still wanted to bargain, he turned around and left immediately.

"Oh, Old Zhang, Secretary Zhang!"

Seeing this, Zhao Xuelei immediately hugged Secretary Zhang's arm.

"Old Zhao, your Qingshan factory is also in trouble, why don't I find someone else!"

Secretary Zhang said "understanding".

"It's not difficult, it's not difficult! It is our bounden duty to share the worries of the community!"

Zhao Xuelei expressed his determination immediately.

The stone field was finalized after a bargain between two old foxes.

"Old Zhao, I have already made so many concessions, do you think we can solve the stones for road construction?"

Just when Zhao Xuelei put the flatbread in his mouth and was about to taste its delicacy, Secretary Zhang made this request at the right time.

After all, the commune really has no money.

"What are you talking about, isn't the commune responsible for road construction?"

Zhao Xuelei asked in surprise.

"Don't you know if the commune has money?"

Secretary Zhang asked back.

Zhao Xuelei had already been promoted to deputy secretary, so he naturally knew what was going on in Zheshan Commune.

Seeing that the two of them were blushing quickly and their necks were thick again, Zhao Wenmu hurried forward.

"Uncle, two uncles, I will pay for the stones for road construction! I will pay!"

The two who were fighting each other like fighting cocks just a second ago changed their faces instantly:
"That's really great!"

The two said in unison.

Zhao Wenmu said in his heart, what if I don't know that you are acting here?
"I've agreed, the stones for road construction can only be sold to me at cost price, second uncle, don't even try to make money!"

"Don't worry, don't worry, definitely!"

Zhao Xuelei's face immediately burst into a bright smile.

Now not only is there a quarry, but even the first batch of orders has been settled.

Also got two lime kilns.

It's a big win!

As for Zhao Wenmu, he is not at a disadvantage. He plans to start piloting the greenhouse project along this road in the future.
