Chapter 64

Chu Qing didn't ask for a contract with them as Hong Liang said.Didn't even mention anything.

He only privately ordered Bai Jiaxing to temporarily pay the 210 workers according to the standard of long-term workers.The matter of identity is put on hold for now.

This invisibly formed a kind of involution, and the original servants and long-term workers performed desperately, because they were not as good as the retired soldiers.Everyone they know can do it.They have also been on the battlefield, and their aura is different.

And these ex-soldiers were also cautious, finally someone accepted them, they had to behave well, otherwise Chu Qing was only close to his own people, what would he do if he dismissed them later.

This involution even spread to three villages.The villagers were all discussing: No wonder Chu Qing didn't use them.Chu Qing is now an official, with a salary of the fifth grade, according to the rank, if you build a courtyard wall, you can wear a hat brim!

Let's offend people severely now!You see, people say that more than 200 servants come here, so they can still work!

At night, there were calls from every family to beat their children and wives.

Some villagers who felt that they were being dragged went to find their respective village chiefs together, and wanted the village chief to intercede. After all, without the income of working, the family would not have enough to eat.

The village head was also in a dilemma, they went to look for Chu Qing during the day, but they didn't expect to run into Chu Qing taking over the two hundred people.

The battle of the two hundred people was as murderous as the army, and none of them dared to approach.

The building materials are all ready-made, and more than 200 people work quickly. The construction site of Baolu Group is in full swing every day.

When the clerks sent by the Ministry of Household Affairs arrived, what they saw was a tense and orderly labor scene.

And in the middle of the field, stood a tall woman in her 20s.There was also a little boy by his side.

Both of them stood upright.Someone came forward to ask for instructions at any time, and the two of them commanded like generals on the battlefield.

The clerk keeps in mind the words of his superiors, and just keeps accounts without talking too much.Chu Qing was also polite to him, and arranged for his residence - one of the half-built houses in a block.

At the end of October, it was very cold. For the past two days, the retired soldiers had been guarding the kiln and setting up tents to sleep. Tonight, the clerk was going to share the tent with them.

The villagers didn't survive for three days, but in the end they begged the village chiefs to find Chu Qing.The villagers waited far away, not daring to approach.

Three village chiefs came into the courtyard to look for Chu Qing, "Miss Chu... ah no, Master Chu!" The village chiefs suddenly realized that they didn't know how to address her, and it seemed that they couldn't justify trying to get close.

"You're welcome, I'll call you Miss Chu." Chu Qing said.Bai Jiaxing served tea.

"Look, the women in the village have long hair and short knowledge, they offended you and Xiaobao..." Village head Li was straightforward, and explained why he came here, "Can you forgive them, my lord? The big guy has you working here, so he can feel more at ease, if there is no work here, the family will really not have enough to eat."

Chu Qing was waiting for them to come to the door.There are really not enough people to work, and now there is more work to be done.

"Yeah, a few of them are not good, you just don't need them. But we have so many villagers..."

"The village chiefs are worrying too much, and you have seen that I have more than 200 men here. To tell you the truth, these men are not hired by me, but veterans sent by the commander-in-chief and placed here. Because we need to resettle them, and they are all men, we have too many women working, which is inconvenient, so we temporarily closed the business." Chu Qing gave a high-sounding reason, and at the same time expressed his intention to no longer recruit female workers.

"That's right, it's really inconvenient." Village Chief Wu nodded.Village head Wu's daughter-in-law sometimes comes to work, and Wu Dalang is always here.

But he can understand clearly.Anyone who is hurt again and again like this cannot be forgiven.

Fortunately, the women who made trouble last time were all from Zhangcun, otherwise he would lose his old face.

"I do need people to work here, let them resume work tomorrow. But the women can only keep [-], and they will take care of the cooking, and the others will not be used for the time being." Chu Qing finally said.

This is also good news. In this way, almost every family can come out to work, and at least they can make money, right?
The village chiefs were very happy and expressed their gratitude. At the same time, they also said that even the women who cook will find some older ones so as not to cause trouble for Chu Qing.

With more people, the speed increased. In a few days, Chu Qing's house was built, and everyone had their own residence.

There are more than 200 soldiers, and there are four people in each room, which is more spacious than in the barracks.All houses have Kang.These veterans feel very happy.

Seeing that everything was on the right track, Chu Qing restarted her mechanized design.

Because he had the right to purchase iron ore, Chu Qing first made a big iron barrel for himself, just like a modern large oil barrel for gasoline, with a short chimney installed on the side, and a large shaft inside the barrel, welded on the shaft took two shovels.The big shaft protrudes from both ends of the iron bucket to make a crank handle.

Put the big iron bucket filled with soybeans horizontally above the stove, and only need someone to shake the handle, the big iron bucket will turn, and the shovel on the big shaft inside will stir-fry the beans.This is faster and less troublesome than frying in one pot for one person.

In addition, a double-shaft shredder was made.The granite transported from the mountain is beaten into two cylinders, fitted with crank handles, and set up on an iron frame.It's like two potter's wheels side by side, with two handles on each side.In this way, two people only need to stand on both sides to shake the handle, and the big stone pillar in the middle will rotate, crushing soybeans directly through the gap, which is much faster than a roller.

Two sets of equipment tried to use it and it worked well, just make a few more sets.

In addition to burning bricks and making coke, the kiln is also burning molds.Coupled with the heating of more than 200 people, the daily coal consumption is very large.

Veteran cadre Huang Zhong has been spending time with Master Lu every day recently. One introduces experience and the other explains principles, and they both learn a lot from each other.Because recently Chu Qing used pig iron instead of steel, so the converter has not been used.

Today Chu Qing is going to make Xiuchun Knife for Secret Investigation Division.Because the current steel quality has reached the level of [-] steelmaking, Chu Qing decided to mass produce it.on the mold.

Huang Zhong has never seen the use of a converter, so as soon as he heard about steelmaking today, he immediately came over with a tea bowl, and he didn't even put the bowl down after drinking.

When another "volcanic eruption" scene appeared, Huang Zhong excitedly rushed over to take a closer look, and was so frightened that Chu Yuan hugged him by the waist: "Old man, don't die!"

After a quarter of an hour, the "volcano" went out.Another quarter of an hour later, Chu Chang sang loudly: "Get up!" Chu Ping and Chu Sheng pulled the chain, the converter tilted, and Guo, Tai, Min, and An each scooped out the molten steel with a long-handled ladle.

Huang Zhong watched the rows of mold boxes passing by the fired kaolin rolls like flowing water, and he was amazed.Like knives, molten steel needs to be scooped out and poured.Guo, Tai, Min, and An are already skilled workers. Huang Zhong feels that they are just like playing. Under their control, the molten steel is perfectly laid into the mold.

After a while, twenty embroidered spring knives and twenty steel pots were released from the mold.

This speed!The eight people from Changping Shengshi and Guotai Min'an are currently the main force in the production of Baosteel No. [-] products, and they are responsible for ironmaking and processing under Master Lu.After the semi-finished products came out, they each divided a few pieces for trimming and polishing.

Huang Zhong looked excited, couldn't help but showed his arms and rolled up his sleeves and followed.

Recently, Huang Zhong had been a bit sleepy and forgot to eat and sleep, so Chu Qing had no choice but to let Chu Yuan follow him.Chu Yuan's brain was active and he was not as cautious as Bai Jiaxing.Now Chu Yuan went to find gloves for Huang Zhong again.

Chu Qing felt that many people were not affected in any way.Look, Huang Zhong is led by Master Lu; the clerk of the household department has his own small office, and when he has nothing to do, he only needs to stay in Chuqing's office yard, and there are no other restrictions on him.

Under the assignment of Lao Yu and Lao Zhao, more than 200 retired soldiers took charge of Chuqing's iron workshop, oil workshop, kiln, and cargo transportation.Only simple and time-consuming tasks such as digging kaolin and making bricks were distributed to the villagers.

Don't look at it clearly and didn't sign any contracts with these retired soldiers, but just trust them more.Perhaps because they don't have roots, the villagers do.

What Chu Qing didn't know was that these veterans worked very hard just to have a contract with Chu Qing, and they wanted to use Chu Qing's place as their root.

People like them wouldn't do well in modern society.But not here, they will be considered the most unstable factors in society.Everything you do will be supervised and restricted.

These were all refugees back then, or their family members died under Dong Lun's butcher knife.They have all been bathed in blood on the battlefield, and their temperament is different from that of ordinary people.The aftermath of the war is also evident in them.Irritable, irritable, impulsive, but also very loyal.

Chu Qing decided to observe them for a period of time, and if there were any suitable ones, they would be incorporated into the team of the secret investigation department.Anyway, we are now a hundred households.
