Chapter 2578 Investigation ([-])

After Yuan Shuzhi was admitted to the environmental sanitation management post, after a period of training, he joined the Municipal Comprehensive Management Bureau.

This Municipal Comprehensive Management Bureau is roughly a collection of sanitation, greening, municipal administration, transportation, etc. in the old time and space. In the era of the Republic of China, it was mostly called the Ministry of Industry Bureau.In order to avoid confusion with the "Ministry of Industry" of the Ming Dynasty, the Guangzhou Municipal Government of this time and space came up with such a name.

The immediate boss of the Municipal Comprehensive Management Bureau is Lin Baiguang. Yuan Shuzhi has been a trainee in the Comprehensive Management Bureau for three months and performed very well. Lin Baiguang entrusted him with the first task.

Yuan Shuzhi's first task was to renovate public toilets in urban areas.

This project was designated by Liu Xiang and Liu Dafu as the No. 17 livelihood project in the new year. In medieval cities in the [-]th century, public toilets either did not exist or existed in extremely crude forms.Taking Guangzhou as an example, there are two types of facilities that can be called public toilets. One is the urine bucket set up on the side of the street for men to urinate; The excrement tank is placed in the ground, and there is a footboard on the tank, which can be used for people's detoxification.

This kind of simple "public toilet" is not covered. Generally speaking, there are bamboo hats on the urine barrels and reed mats on the manure tanks. The purpose is not to provide privacy, but to prevent rainwater from flowing in and affecting the quality of farmyard manure. Harm the interests of the owner of the excrement segment.

It is conceivable that basically only men can use such crude facilities.Liu Dafu believes that in order for women to come out to work, it is essential to provide the necessary public toilets for men and women.

Of course, from a hygiene point of view, adequate public toilets are also crucial.Because there are not many toilets even in such a simple way.Therefore, as long as you go to a remote place, you can see traces of defecation everywhere, especially in remote back streets and alleys, where the ground is full of feces and urine.

It's nothing more than filthy, and it pollutes water sources and becomes the source of various infectious diseases.Therefore, after Liu Xiang completed the demolition of illegal buildings and the dredging of Liumai Canal, the two major municipal projects, he began to build "public toilets" throughout the city.

In addition to sanitation considerations, the construction of public toilets is also to eradicate the evil forces in the city.Because in the past, the dung section of Guangzhou was like a separatist regime, not only canine teeth were intertwined, but also there were clear barriers between each section, each with its own deed.In order to compete for the right to collect the excrement of the excrement section, there are often various open and secret struggles among the excrement section owners.And this involves the people and horses of Guandi Temple.Often bloodshed.

It was originally free for the excrement owners to clean up the excrement, because the income from the sale of the excrement is their profit.But after a long time, the residents were threatened by cleaning up the excrement.The manure director instigated the manure dumping workers to extort the cleaning fee on the grounds of "foot money", "tea money" and "washing money". If they refused to pay, they threatened to stop clearing the manure.Residents had to endure its exploitation.There is a lot of public dissatisfaction.

Therefore, although the construction of public toilets is expensive and very cumbersome, it is of great benefit to urban governance.So it became an important part of Liu Xiang's "New Life Movement".

Although Guangzhou City has an underground drainage system called Liumaiqu, due to hygiene and fertilizer considerations, it is obviously not appropriate to discharge excrement and urine from public toilets directly into Liumaiqu.Therefore, the design of the construction company is to adopt the mode of septic tank.

The public toilets are separate toilets for men and women.A "dung station" is attached, which is regularly washed and cleaned by sanitation workers every day.After flushing, the manure flows into the septic tank. After sedimentation and fermentation in the three-stage septic tank, the upper layer of clear water is discharged into the sewer channel. After the manure is deposited to a certain extent, it is manually excavated and loaded to several "fertilizer stations" in the suburbs. ".The city's feces and domestic waste will be sold here to farmers in the suburbs.

The construction standards of this type of toilet are roughly the same as the public toilets before the 80s in the old time and space. Overall, they are very simple and the sanitary conditions are not satisfactory.But in this time and space, it is already an extremely advanced concept.The only regret for the designers of Lingao Construction Company is that because there is no tap water system in Guangzhou, there is a big shortage in providing flushing water.Sanitation workers had to drag water trucks to flush toilets.

Even so, these public toilets built in the streets and alleys according to the population density have also greatly improved the urban sanitation environment.

Yuan Shu was responsible for the construction of three of the public toilets.

Yuan Shuzhi has already completed the first one, and now is the second one.At the moment, he is taking the selection points to see where the toilets in the block are more suitable. He used the location knowledge he learned when he was taking the civil service examination to discuss with a few newly admitted young people: "Everyone, look at this How about a few points? This toilet can’t be built in the air outlet, otherwise the fragrance will be lingering for thousands of miles, but it can’t be too far away from the common people, otherwise the common people don’t like to use it. I think these few points are acceptable. It’s close to the residential area, but it’s not too far away affect the lives of ordinary people.”

"Old Yuan, I'm afraid it's not very good for you to say this point. Judging from the location, this point is the best right now." A young man who just graduated from Lingao Fangcaodi and was assigned through administrative training said.Yuan Shuzhi gave him a blank look, and thought to himself: This doll is a doll after all. Although he is an Australian student, he is a deadhead. He doesn't even look at how close his point is to Liu Dafu's official residence. .

Yuan Shuzhi said: "You, you are still too young. I have to tell you how much older you are, so I have to say to you: Well, don't make a fuss about it. Look at the position of this point and the perennial wind direction in Guangzhou. You Don’t you have eyes and a nose? There are all elders living nearby. Do the elders need a large toilet?! Building toilets should be based on the needs of the people.”

The young man immediately lost his voice, but still felt unwilling,

Yuan Shuzhi had no choice but to say again: "It's not wrong to want to do the job well, but it's also a mistake to patronize the boring work. It depends on whether you know it or not?!"

The tea drinkers in the teahouse across the street watched their exploration, and some customers laughed and said:

"I said that the Australians are in charge of the sky and the earth, and they are in charge of shit and fart. They are too lenient. It's a big deal. It turns out that Wang Shitou was much better when he was there than now. Why do you treat him well?" Wang Dung's head was caught and cracked, saying that he is some kind of evil force. Now the dung in the house has to accumulate for several days before someone comes to collect it."

"I said, Old Wang, you will die on your mouth sooner or later. Who doesn't know that Wang Shitou is your distant nephew, and he pays a little money every year. As far as being a man, he is a bad breed! This dung took him away. Selling money, we need to pay him again! We still have to ask for rewards during the holidays. Last time, my brother-in-law’s family neglected his subordinates a little, so we didn’t dig out dung for his family for a month!”

Someone here is worried about the boss: "Boss, your tea house is in danger! Once this big toilet is built, your place will be fragrant for thousands of miles."

The owner of the tea house turned blue at the moment.No matter how "clean and hygienic" the flush toilet is, no one likes to drink tea opposite the toilet.Once it is completed, his tea house will only be closed down!Thinking about how to get it back.

……

Yuan Shuzhi was surveying the location, but the city government suddenly sent a traffic officer to send an urgent notice.He opened it and looked, but he was asked to go to a certain room in the big world tomorrow and report to an old Zheng Yuan.Temporarily seconded to her to work.

Although Yuan Shuzhi didn't know why he was suddenly seconded out, he was happy that the Senate wanted to use him again.

When he returned to the bureau, he handed over all the urban areas in his hands to others, and reported to the Great World early the next morning.

It was the first time for Zheng Mingjiang to see Yuan Shuzhi, so he couldn't help but feel a little disappointed: this person is not only very old, but also has a sour smell all over his body. Do you know why such a number of people have been mixed into our civil servants?
She is used to seeing young naturalized civilian cadres from school. Although she looks handsome and ugly, most of them have a clean image and sharp speech. In comparison, this Yuan Shuzhi really doesn't see how "competent".

But the identification materials in his file are excellent, and he is No. 1 in the environmental sanitation post of the civil servant examination.Moreover, all the examinations of the induction training are among the best, especially hygiene and epidemic prevention are No.1.Zheng Mingjiang knew how precious this was for a person in his 50s who was born as an old literati.

Zheng Mingjiang looked at it carefully and felt that as long as he put on a wig and a long gown, he would look like a "remainer of the Ming Dynasty".There is no Australian atmosphere at all, so it is most appropriate to go secretly to investigate and inquire about news. .

She chatted with him for a while, and she felt that this man had a sophisticated understanding of the world, and was quite organized in his speech and actions, so he should be competent for investigation work.

She immediately told him about the content and focus of the work, and said: "This matter is currently highly confidential. No matter before or after the event, it must not be leaked——Can you do it?"

"The chief has an order, so I dare not obey it." Yuan Shuzhi said with emotion.

"You are in charge of unannounced visits, and you may also deal with criminals. There will be certain risks. After you think about it, do you think you can bear it?"

"Before the chiefs entered the city, although people were alive, they were no different from dead people. They just breathed a sigh of relief. After being admitted to the civil service, they are reborn as human beings. The new life of a certain is given by the chief. If the chief Yes, I am absolutely unambiguous!"

Yuan Shuzhi's confession made Zheng Mingjiang a little embarrassed.She smiled and said: "You don't have to be so nervous! Huizhou is our world, and I will send someone to protect you secretly. I will not ask you to do dangerous things. You just need to inquire about the news secretly. In this case, you go back and pack up , set off with the investigation team tomorrow..."

Yuan Shuzhi had been thinking about it for a while in the past few minutes, and he said, "I think it's better for me to go alone."

"Oh why."

"Since the chief wants a secret investigation, how can he go with the investigation team?" He thought that if he went to Huizhou with the investigation team, he might be seen on the way.Once someone finds out, his "secret investigation" task will not be able to continue.
