Heavy Industry Empire

Although the distribution of various benefits at the end of the year is a matter of the civil affairs industry, Liu Tianling will still take on some of these responsibilities. Firstly, it is inspection, and secondly, it is actually distributed. South of Pingyi County, Shandong Province, Tongshi Village, this is A village located on the mountainside. Liu Tianling visited this village at the end of last year because of road construction. At that time, there were more than 40 households in the village, and 200 households had no food. They had to rely on relief for no other reason. There were more than [-] people in the village. , there are less than [-] mu of mountainous land, the mountainous land is barren, and the output is not much. The crops are mainly sweet potatoes and peanuts.

The convoy moved forward, heading towards Tongshi Village, Ye Feng skillfully drove, "Commander-in-Chief, I remember that there was only a rotten dirt road here last year, and it was not open to traffic at all. This year has changed a lot,"

"Yes, this road is also troublesome to build," Liu Tianling looked around. The road was built on the mountainside. The road is not wide, but the quality is pretty good. The rammed earth road is solid.

"Don't go forward for the car behind, just ask a car of supplies to keep up," Liu Tianling said.

Next to him, Li Yindiao immediately made arrangements. Behind the off-road vehicle was an open-top off-road vehicle pulling rice, grain, oil and other supplies. At that time, the village head had already led people to wait at the entrance of the village.

When Liu Tianling got out of the car, the villagers immediately rejoiced.

"Look, everyone, the commander-in-chief is here, the commander-in-chief is here to see us," the crowd cheered happily, rushing forward.

At this time, Li Yinbao was the most worried, and he and the other three guards looked around with wide-eyed eyes. Fortunately, Liu Tianling never notified in advance of where he went, and the number of assassinations and the like has decreased a lot recently.

The village chief Li Carpenter's eyes lit up, and he immediately said, "The commander-in-chief has come so far away, we must let them rest, everyone, don't be too tight."

Liu Tianling smiled and said, "Folks, it's almost the Chinese New Year. How are you doing this year? Do you have enough rations?"

Carpenter Li has long seen the rice, flour, grain, oil and other supplies in the convertible.

"Commander-in-Chief, let's enter the village and chat while walking," said Carpenter Li and all the villagers gathered around Liu Tianling and walked slowly towards the village.

There are actually a lot of new brick and tile houses in the village. The houses in Pingyi area are built with red bricks and blue tiles, cement joints, and the planning is also decent.

"Carpenter Li, I don't see how your village has developed so fast this year. How many needy households are there in the village this year? Do they need food relief?" Liu Tianling asked.

Li Carpenter smiled and said: "The commander-in-chief listened to me slowly. It was completely unexpected. You said how could he get rich in our poor mountain and remote place? He grew sweet potatoes, peanuts, and sheep. Wait a minute, I've thought about all of this, raising sheep is more suitable, but it will take two years to develop at the fastest, and currently there are three or five breeding sheep in each family in the village, and the scale is small, and we have to wait to really make money from this, "

"Then how did you develop?" Liu Tianling asked curiously.

"Two conveniences," Carpenter Li stretched out two fingers, "In the spring, some people from the pharmaceutical company came to the mountains and said to collect mountain products. Guess what, they want to collect our honeysuckle that is everywhere in the mountains. The price of the honeysuckle is also high, good guy, no one has collected this honeysuckle for many years, and the price is still high, just the spring honeysuckle is enough for our village's ration money for a year."

"Oh, so that's the case. Honeysuckle is a medicinal material. It's a good thing someone buys it. It's better than wasting it. If there are other medicinal materials that are sold through various channels, go to the county and ask the county officials to help them find a way," Liu Tianling said.

"That's not true, this time the pharmaceutical company found a treasure here, and several medicinal materials were purchased,"

"Honeysuckle is for picking flowers, it doesn't work if you just pick them but don't grow them."

"The people from this pharmaceutical company also proposed that we plant on the hillside, which can control water and soil," Li Carpenter scratched his head and said.

Ye Feng next to him said: "It can prevent and control soil erosion,"

"Yes, yes, to prevent and control water and soil erosion, now each family has a gold and silver garden, and when they are not busy, they also get some farm manure on it. Another thing is to be a carpenter. A village-run workshop has been set up in our village, which specializes in making shelf cars. , wheelbarrow and other agricultural tools, there are a total of more than ten carpenters in the village, who are the main force, and other people are the assistants. According to the joint-stock system, everyone makes money together. Now when it comes to our copper and stone carts, we are famous,” Li Carpenter said proudly .

"Is the shelf car so popular?" Liu Tianling asked.

"Isn't it? Recently, there have been more horses in the livestock market, especially a lot of stallions. Although the stallions have bad tempers and can't work, there is a far-sighted man in the next village who bought a horse with the worst temper. Bad, the stallion that likes to fight the most, got thirty female donkeys, guess what," said Carpenter Li.

"What else can I do, give birth to a bunch of mules," Ye Feng said.

"You guessed it right, it's a mule. Of course, the mule is still very small, but generally speaking, if there are more large animals, there will naturally be more demand for rack carts," Carpenter Li said in a thorough analysis.

"Can you show me your workshop," Liu Tianling suggested.

"Okay, okay," Carpenter Li took Liu Tianling and others to the big workshop at the back of the village. It occupies an area of ​​more than two acres and is even equipped with chainsaws. It looks like a factory. Work has been suspended, but there is a lot of wood piled up in the open space, and there are a lot of racks waiting to be sold in the warehouse. Obviously, Carpenter Li is right.

"Carpenter Li, it's not bad to make a frame car, but you should pay attention to observe what the people need, pay attention to improving details, and also, you cut this wood from the mountain, did you replant it after cutting it?" Liu Tianling ask.

"Hehe, don't worry, Commander-in-Chief. When we started cooking, someone from the county came and told us everything. The trees in our village are at our disposal, but they are harvested indirectly in batches and blocks, and the big ones are kept. Small ones, Feng Shui cannot be destroyed, and at the same time, we planted trees and honeysuckle in the original Huangshan Mountain, so we will definitely protect the environment,” said Carpenter Li.

Liu Tianling was worried, and took a telescope to look up the mountain. Sure enough, the felling was reasonable, and there were a lot of small trees.

"Then are there any people in the village who need food relief?" Liu Tianling asked.

Carpenter Li said: "There are two households, both of which are widowed and lonely old people, but our village has already solved it by itself. The villagers will definitely not ignore their own people when they have money. We raise part of the money from the workshop and give it to those who need money in the village. people,"
