The rise of a great power: starting with military industry

Chapter 83 Welcome Ceremony
The next morning.

Several leaders of Panshan Machinery Factory are mobilizing dozens of workers' families to clean the dormitories.

The spring cleaning started a few days ago.

Of course, this mobilization is not free of charge, but one dollar per person per day.

These family members are happy to receive the money.

Since the construction of Panshan Machinery Factory started, a lot of idle labor has been mobilized to participate in the construction and contribute to the construction.

Now the shopping mall has been built, the new school has been built, and the hospital has been built.

The first batch of medical staff will arrive at Panshan Machinery Factory today.

In order to attract medical staff and teachers to Panshan Machinery Factory, Liu Tao also spent a lot of money.

As long as a skilled doctor or a famous teacher comes to Panshan Machinery Factory, he can be allocated a house and enjoy the same salary as the deputy factory director.

As for young medical staff and teachers, they were also given high salaries.

It was for this reason that the first batch of medical staff were able to arrive at Panshan Machinery Factory so quickly.

Liu Tao was also preparing a welcome message. The first batch of medical staff consisted of a hundred people, including seventy young girls. In order to keep them, in addition to material conditions, spiritual aspects were also needed.

This welcome speech naturally needs to be well prepared.

Time passed by unknowingly and the clock was about to point to 10 o'clock.

"Director, the guard at the front called and said the convoy has passed the checkpoint and will arrive at the hospital in about fifteen minutes." The office director came over to report.

"Okay, let's go to the hospital!" Liu Tao nodded.

The gate guard naturally does not refer to the gate of the current Panshan Machinery Factory.

It refers to the outermost outpost of Panshan Machinery Factory from Kun City.

In that place, the narrowest distance between the two mountains is only 200 meters, and the width of the river accounts for 100 meters. An outpost was built at that location, which is easy to defend and difficult to attack. There are also defensive fortifications built on the mountain, overlooking the surrounding area.

As for the outpost’s telephone numbers, they are all internal to Panshan Machinery Factory.

There are currently only two external telephones in the entire Panshan Machinery Factory, one is in the factory director's office, and the other is at Liu Tao's home. These two phones can not only be used to make external calls, but also domestic long-distance calls.

In this era, long-distance calls were very rare. Except for some units, ordinary people had to go to the post office if they wanted to make a long-distance call.

Even if the company is making a long-distance call, it has to go through the long-distance station for manual connection. If the line is busy, it often takes more than ten minutes or even dozens of minutes to get through.

It was also with the development of communication technology that bald telephone operators and "telegraphs" were eliminated and disappeared.

As for telephone calls within the factory, that is much simpler and can be done via a walkie-talkie.

When we arrived at the hospital, the scene was filled with ribbons, flowers, and red flags, and it was full of joy.

Not long after, we saw a convoy approaching.

One hundred people, ten cars.

"Welcome~~Welcome~~Warm welcome~~"

The elementary school students' guard of honor, with drums and trumpets booming.

Each primary school student held a bouquet of flowers and presented it to each medical staff.

A lively welcoming ceremony was held to welcome the arrival of the first batch of medical staff. Liu Tao, the factory director, shook hands with each medical staff warmly and then delivered a welcome speech.

“Dear colleagues, comrades!”

"Hello everyone! Today, our Panshan Machinery Factory welcomes a group of special employees. They are the medical staff of our Panshan Machinery Factory. On this special day, on behalf of all the employees of the factory, I would like to welcome them." On behalf of the entire Panshan Machinery Factory, Liu Tao expressed a warm welcome to these medical staff.

Afterwards, Liu Tao, as the factory director, led everyone to visit the hospital.

The entire Panshan Hospital is divided into outpatient, emergency, inpatient and other departments.

The entire hospital covers an area of ​​one hundred acres. Although the terrain is high and low, the environment is beautiful.

When these medical staff looked at the hospital, their eyes lit up, because even Kunming First Hospital was not as good as Panshan Hospital.

When Liu Tao brought them to a nearby shopping mall, these young nurses exclaimed one by one.

The mall has a wide variety of merchandise, and each item is clearly marked with a price, so you don't need a ticket to buy it.

The hospital is not far from the shopping mall, less than two kilometers away.

They couldn't help but think how wonderful life would be if they could ride their bicycles to the mall after get off work.

After shopping in the mall, he took them to the residential area. Liu Tao gave the keys to several doctors on the spot, saying that the house would belong to them from now on and they could live there as long as they continued to work in Panshan Hospital.

Although five nurses live together in a dormitory, they do not sleep in bunk beds. Instead, each nurse has her own room. In addition, there are two separate bathrooms, a kitchen, a hall and a shared balcony.

This made every young nurse have no complaints about the bumpy journey, and they just felt that coming to Panshan Machinery Factory was the right decision.

Working and living here is no different from working in the city, and the working environment is even better.

After taking these people for a tour, Liu Tao brought them to the hospital cafeteria, where a sumptuous welcome banquet had been prepared. There were more than a dozen tables in total, with each table seating ten people.

There are vegetables, pork, game, and river fish!

Since last year, Panshan River has been carrying out artificial fish farming in the lower reaches. This means that the Panshan Machinery Factory has no shortage of fish, and the meals in the canteen always include river fish and shrimps.

As for game in the mountains, when the militia camp goes into the mountains, they can even find wild boars, not to mention pheasants!
Although the Panshan Machinery Factory has jurisdiction over an area of ​​100 square kilometers, most of it is mountainous, and there are actually not many relatively flat areas.

The Panshan Machinery Factory was chosen to be built here because it is easy to defend and difficult to attack. The mountain roads are rugged and remote, and no one would bomb here.

According to the current plan, such a large area can only accommodate 50,000 to 60,000 people at most, and there are no fields for planting, so daily necessities have to be purchased from nearby towns and villages.

If more people live there, it will seem crowded.

This is in stark contrast to areas with relatively flat terrain. If such a large area were relatively flat, it would be enough to accommodate one or two million people.

In the afternoon, these medical staff carried luggage to the dormitory and carried medical equipment and medicines to the hospital.

Liu Tao was with the hospital director Li Zhen. Li Zhen was originally a senior director of Kunhua Hospital. He just turned 60 this year. This time he was transferred to Panshan Hospital as the director and was responsible for the establishment of Panshan Hospital. His rank was deputy director level.

Li Zhen not only serves as the director of Panshan Hospital, but also serves as the deputy director of Panshan Machinery Factory, responsible for medical and health work.

Li Zhen was able to come here only because Wang Tiezhu put in a lot of effort.

Naturally, Liu Tao also arranged a villa for Li Zhen.

Moreover, Liu Tao is trying to get a car to be allocated to Li Zhen as a private car.
