The Lord of the World Begins from the Siheyuan

Chapter 493 I really can’t handle this matter

Li Ming said casually: "You don't have to wait until the weather gets cold. It's already a mess. They came to the capital to suffer some hardships and they can't blame others."

"However, this matter is not my business, and I can't say anything. I am too lazy to care."

The matter was so big that I couldn’t say anything. Lou Xiao’e sighed and said, “Yeah.”

In fact, this problem is relatively easy to solve.

In the past, such large events were held several times a year, and there was a group of experienced people in Beijing who were responsible for the logistics.

However, most of this group of experienced people are now seriously reviewing and writing inspections.

People who do not have rich experience are responsible for the logistics work of tens of millions of people. Whether making plans or executing plans, it is impossible not to make mistakes.

Moreover, visitors come from all over the country. People come and leave every day, and the number of people is dynamic and unstable.

You can imagine how difficult the job is!

The idea of ​​offering free room and board is also to make work easier.

There is no charge, at least the food can be distributed by those who visit, so there is no need to wait in line for 2-3 hours to buy food.

There are not enough hotels or hostels to stay in, and it is not appropriate to charge money for living in temporary huts.

If it’s free, what about the people who paid before?Do you want a refund?From what date can I get a refund?How do I get my money back?
This thing is a mess now.

Only then did Li Ming avoid it, since he really couldn't handle the matter.

Because several of his courtyard houses are located in alleys, and the roads in the alleys are not wide to begin with, there is no way to build temporary buildings, so the impact is relatively small.

After sending Lou Xiaoe home first, he rode back to No. 95 Courtyard.

"Hello, gentlemen, why are you chatting at the gate?"

Yan Bugui, Liu Haizhong, and Yi Zhonghai were standing at the entrance of the courtyard.

Yi Zhonghai greeted Li Ming with a smile, but remained taciturn as usual.

Yan Bugui was even more enthusiastic and responded first: "We just sent Director Liu out from the courtyard, and Director Liu just passed the corner."

Li Ming smiled and asked, "Does the Jiaodaokou Subdistrict Office have any new tasks?"

Liu Haizhong also quickly answered: "In order to solve the food problem of those who come to the capital, Director Wang wants to find someone to help in the street canteen."

"It turns out that the street is recruiting temporary workers, which is a good thing."

Yan Bugui waved his hand and said: "The street is not recruiting workers. We want everyone to do voluntary labor."

Li Ming helped the bicycle up the steps, "This is quite difficult. The canteen in our factory has also been assigned the task of cooking."

The three stewards made way for Li Ming to enter the courtyard.

Yan Bugui still had a smile on his face, "All the classrooms in our school have been given bunks on the floor for them to stay in."

"Well, I guess more and more people are coming to the capital."

Liu Haizhong followed closely beside the bicycle and said what he heard from the factory, "It will be National Day soon! Those who came don't want to leave, and there are still a lot of people who want to come and are already on the road. By then more people."

Li Ming took the lead in entering the second gate, "Our capital city will be under great pressure by then!"

Uncle Dong, who was sitting in the front yard, asked curiously: "What's so stressful?"

"The pressure is as big as a mountain. During the National Day, people from all over the country will come to the capital to visit. The food, clothing, housing and transportation for millions of new people are not easy to solve."

Wu Ming stopped smoking. "We don't even have 400 million people near the capital. If 100 million people are coming all of a sudden, where will they eat and stay?"

Uncle Dong is well-informed, "I heard that there are already 30 people now, and it seems that it is not very far away from 100 million."

Wu Ming disagreed and said: "That's far from it. Now these 30 people are already crowded everywhere. If hundreds of thousands more come later, there will really be no houses for them to live in."

"Uncle Dong, look at Li Junyi from the noodle factory and Yuan Wanshun from the soy sauce factory. They have worked overtime and haven't come back yet."

Yanbu Gui changed the subject, "Other people are responsible for things outside. Now we have to talk about the issue of manpower support for street canteens."

After Li Ming parked his bicycle, he didn't go back to his house. "What's the plan?"

Liu Haizhong answered: "Director Liu just informed us, and we haven't discussed it yet."

Wu Ming said casually: "Each household will take turns sending someone there."

The three uncles happened to be in the front yard. Li Ming asked the people in the yard, "Is anyone opposed to this proposal?"

Yan Bugui glanced at the other people in the courtyard and said, "There seems to be no better way."

Li Ming sat on the other end of Wu Ming's bench, "Since no one objects, it's settled. We will go to the compound first and set a good example for the nearby compounds."

"Third uncle, please discuss with the people in the courtyard and arrange a schedule for them. From now on, they will go to the street canteen to help according to the schedule."

Yan Bugui happily accepted the errand, "Okay, I'll get it done tomorrow."

Li Ming knows how to do publicity work. "After the schedule is ready, I have to trouble you to get it on the blackboard on the wall outside."

"Publishing the shift schedule on the blackboard not only allows everyone to supervise them, but also praises them."

Yan Bugui asked with a smile: "Should their names be written with two titles together?"

"Yeah, just the same as usual."

Neither Yi Zhonghai nor Liu Haizhong expressed different opinions.

Things in Courtyard No. 95 are basically handled in this way. Someone makes a suggestion, and Li Ming consults the opinions of several stewards in the courtyard before making a decision.

He didn't bother to deal with the small details of the specific implementation, leaving it to the people in the compound to discuss slowly.

Sunday morning.

Li Ming took Lou Xiao'e for a drive. There were people everywhere in the city and the car couldn't go any faster. He took his time and walked around the capital.

The two returned to the main room in the small courtyard in the west of the city.

After returning from the drive, Lou Xiao'e was in a good mood, "I have never visited the capital like this before. It turns out that the capital is so big."

Li Ming took the tea cup and said, "In 2 hours, we only visited the inner city, and there is still a large area that we have not visited."

"The place I haven't seen yet is a new urban area like Xinzhong Street, right?"

"Absolutely. There are factories, residences, places like the Beijing Zoo, the education and scientific research areas in Haidian, and many more places."

"You took me to Xiangyanghua and on the way to the Summer Palace. I saw some of them. Many of them are buildings in the new city."

"The planning department in Beijing has regulations that in order to save land resources, new bungalows are not allowed. Some of the new bungalows were built urgently when there was a shortage of housing."

Lou Xiao'e herself sat down to drink tea and sighed: "Hey, all those time-honored brands have been renamed, even the streets have been renamed."

"These are just trivial matters now. In the next two or three years, various things will shock you." Lou Xiao'e's eyes flashed with admiring little stars, "How can you always accurately judge future events? Please teach me Well."

Li Ming smiled and said: "The development of everything has its objective laws."

"For example, if you study in a red book, I also study in a red book. This is particularly about 'application'. There is no way to judge who can learn better or use it better based on the exam."

"At this time, it is natural to compete in various performances. Everyone has more routines and methods of performance, and weird things are bound to happen."

Lou Xiao'e nodded and said, "That seems to be the case."

"It doesn't seem like it, that's how it is."

After lunch, Lou Xiao'e wanted to take a nap.

Li Ming planned to go back to the steel rolling mill to inspect the work of the security department. He deliberately took a detour to explore the yard where Kuang Zhidao was located before returning to the factory.

He hadn't found any unusual behavior from the other party for a month, and now he wanted to terminate the investigation.

Of course, he would have to read the investigation report before speaking.

It is reasonable that there were no abnormal actions throughout August. There was so much movement in the capital that any spy with a little caution would keep a low profile.

Li Ming inspected the work of the security department first, and then rushed to the staff building construction site.

The staff building has been built and is now undergoing final decoration.

Today, Sunday, there are still many people taking the initiative to work overtime, as has been the case throughout August.

They either work overtime or study overtime. Li Ming guides these people to work.

Deputy Team Leader Qiu, who was in charge of the actual construction, asked: "Team Leader Li, has the subsequent construction of our factory really been stopped?"

Li Ming looked up at the electrician's wiring and said, "It's definitely stopped. According to the city's order, all future building materials will be given priority to build temporary straw sheds. The decoration of these staff buildings does not require so many people, and we have to allocate some people to build them. Thatched shed.”

Deputy Team Leader Qiu sighed: "Hey. I understand that there is such an urgent task. Who do you plan to arrange to be responsible for building the straw shed?"

"Let Deputy Team Leader Du go. Our working hours have been adjusted to normal starting at 8 a.m. and leaving at 6 p.m. Now there is no need for night rounds, and the technical requirements for building a straw shed are not high, so he should be able to do it. "

Li Ming continued: "It is estimated that when the house is renovated, everyone will have to build a straw shed. We have always had sufficient supplies of steel, cement and other materials, and all the brother units are very jealous!"

Master Zhang, the captain of the carpentry team, asked: "I heard that the building materials such as wood and cement used to build the straw shed must be paid in advance by the construction company?"

"That's right! Not only that, but all the building materials were paid in advance by the construction company, so the subsequent construction of houses in our factory has stopped. It will be possible to build another employee building next year."

Master Zhang dispersed cigarettes to everyone, "Will the materials that have been given out be returned to the factory later? If not, our factory will not have the funds or building materials to build staff buildings next year."

Li Ming didn't want to smoke, waved his hand and said with a smile: "I don't know."

Deputy Team Leader Qiu took the cigarette and said, "If all the units participating in the construction are to carry forward their style, the accounts will be messed up."

Everyone at this construction site smokes, and Li Ming can't tell them not to smoke. "I heard that the current accounts are already in a mess. I hope the superiors will reimburse our factory for materials and funds in the future."

Everything was planned well, but now the whole city has to change its plans and engage in emergencies. You can imagine the chaos involved.

Regarding food alone, if a person's food expenses are 5 cents a day, for 30 people, it would cost 15 yuan a day; for 100 million people, it would cost 50 yuan a day. (There are regulations in Beijing, the maximum amount is 5 jiao per day.)
The supply of grain, meat, eggs, milk, vegetables, and non-staple food involved was temporarily allocated from various places. It was not something that could be solved by simply issuing an order. It was a matter that affected the whole body.

For example, supplies are temporarily mobilized from nearby Baocheng and must be immediately replenished for Baocheng. The supply of materials is planned, and the people in Baocheng also need to eat and eat.

Grain, pork, non-staple food, etc. can also be temporarily mobilized.

The most troublesome thing is the supply of vegetables. The vegetables produced by the production team in the suburbs of Beijing are all planted according to the production plan set at the beginning of the year.

Suddenly there are millions more mouths, and at this time there is no way to transport them over long distances on a large scale.

People from out of town who want to eat vegetables are completely unable to do so.

The little follower, Xiao Wei, who was doing election promotion, asked: "Team Leader Li, I heard that our factory will not distribute any fruits during this year's Mid-Autumn Festival and National Day welfare. Is this true?"

Master Zhang, the carpentry captain, also looked at Li Ming, "I also heard this rumor."

As a buyer in the factory, Li Ming knew the inside story clearly.
"I gave out some fruits, which greatly reduced the quantity. The fruits were squeezed out and supplied to those visiting from other places. They lacked vegetables, so the superiors asked me to use fruits to ensure their nutritional balance."

Deputy Team Leader Qiu shook the cigarette ashes and said, "There are no vegetables to eat, but fruits are provided. The person who can come up with this idea is also a genius!"

"Chief Chen Guodong of the Purchasing Section [-] has always had great powers. Can't he also purchase unplanned fruits?"

Li Ming shook his head and said: "The people from the supply and marketing cooperatives said hello. No one can save face this time. The top has issued a message that each supply and marketing cooperative must ensure the supply of fruits."

The task this time was urgent, and the fruits were wrapped up by the people at the purchasing station. The fruits after the production team completed the task were not allowed to be sold casually.

The fruit canning factory he and Xianghua cooperated with had no fruit even if they wanted to start operations. It was such a coincidence.

It was possible to withhold part of the fruit privately, but he and the people in Xiangyanghua had no idea of ​​doing this.

Things have priorities, and they still have this awareness.

Xiao Wei scratched his head and said, "Fruits are only for temporary relief, right? When the weather gets cold in November and December, there are no more fruits. We in the capital don't have much vegetables to eat in the winter."

Master Zhang smiled and said: "Maybe they would have gone back by then. It's already very cold at night in October, and I guess they won't last until November or December."

Li Ming was about to leave, "There must be a road before the car reaches the mountain. And that is not an issue we need to consider. The planning department and the Food Bureau have to worry about it. We have our own headaches."

"What we have to worry about is that there are no more houses to build."

"Yes. The straw shed is easy to build. What can we do then?"

"Continuing to lay the foundation? Last winter we also dug the foundation and leveled the ground."

Steel rolling manufacturers have a big business, and there are too many things for these people to do.

Some projects are not so convenient, raising a lot of people without work, and wasting a lot of money and materials.

But at this time, due to the lack of professionals, some projects often stop working after they are started because they are too difficult.

This is also an important reason why construction units will hire private contractors for some projects such as road construction.

When the project is suspended, the wages of regular employees cannot be stopped; the people in the contracting team can only be paid some living expenses, including food and accommodation.

When it comes to many things, economic factors play a role in them.

Projects that can be restarted after a shutdown are considered good. Some projects are completely canceled in the middle of construction. This is a complete waste.

There are many such projects.Because at this time I like to survey, design and construct at the same time.

For example, the Gezhouba Water Conservancy Project was started on December 70, 12, and stopped at the end of 30. The main project was restarted at the end of 72, and was not completed until 74.
