The Great Industrial Ming Dynasty Started from Beiping

Chapter 309 The Banquet of the New Era
Railway Engineering Headquarters.

There are Shaanxi Railway Engineering Department and Shanxi Railway Engineering Department under it.

It is the largest core department of China Heavy Industry, and its scale and number of employees account for "half of the country" of China Heavy Industry.

Because of the expansion of scale and full consideration of the employment and scheduling environment, the office area of ​​the railway engineering headquarters was built in Zhendingfu.

After a one-year construction period of the engineering department, the Railway Engineering Headquarters has entered the handover ceremony.

Some departments have been relocated to the headquarters area ahead of schedule and are functioning well.

today.

It was a day when the top figures of China Heavy Industry came to participate in the handover ceremony of the engineering department and the railway engineering department.

Xu Ning, the veteran of China Heavy Industry, has grown a beard on his face and wears work clothes of China Heavy Industry every day.

Although he is still young, not even 30 years old, no one dares to neglect him, even if he is qualified to speak in front of the prince.

Because the total number of employees inside and outside the Ministry of Railway Engineering is close to 6.

The 6 figure is huge.

It can be spread over a land of millions of square kilometers, but it is like pepper spraying noodles, and there is not much movement to be seen.

But the monthly wages are real.

9 taels per month, up to a million taels of silver a year.

China Heavy Industry's internal food stamp promotion reform has already been completed, and workers have accepted food stamps instead of copper coins.

Nor did they go to the food stamp bank to exchange for gold and silver as soon as they received the food stamps, or go to the supply and marketing cooperatives to spend them all.

According to Zhu Gaochi's words, in the pool of food stamps, the workers of the Railway Engineering Department alone settled several 10 taels of food stamps every month.

As people's wealth grows, this interest rate will increase.

In the short term, it is good, but in the long run, it is better to make this interest settlement less.

Ma Lin, the boss of the engineering department, led the stewards of the engineering department to welcome Xu Ning and the stewards behind him.

Both sides bowed their hands in salute.

As important guests, Zhang Dehui and Zhou Yourong were also there, as well as some officials from Beiping, from Su Guan of the Chief Secretary to officials from Zhending Mansion.

The scene is very big.

The headquarters building of the Ministry of Railway Engineering is a reinforced concrete structure, and it is currently the tallest building in Beiping.

There are nine floors and more than [-] large and small offices.

It is taller than the tallest pagoda in Beiping Temple.

It adopts the design scheme of China Heavy Industry Headquarters Building, and also uses the back shape.

The Ministry of Railway Engineering, which is rich and powerful, successively paid 7000 taels of silver to the Ministry of Engineering, which is also rich and powerful.

The final payment will not be settled until the handover ceremony is completed.

This is only the building structure cost, construction and management cost, construction equipment cost, and does not include the cost of interior decoration and other expenses.

In the process of turning the left hand to the right hand, only one building produced a productivity of tens of thousands of taels of silver, consuming various mineral resources from the land.

While people still eat three meals a day, food consumption has not increased.

It can be simply described as the essence of economic development and productivity improvement.

This kind of project, in the traditional agricultural era, is a waste of money and people, and even payment transactions are not good for society.

Because of the essential difference between agricultural society and industrial society.

The firewood era.

The more fuel is consumed, the scarcer the fuel is, and the more expensive it is, which not only fails to support industrial development, but also makes it impossible for the common people to buy fuel, even if they have money.

But the age of coal was different.

The more fuel consumed, the more fuel produced, the lower the cost, which is not only conducive to the development of industry, but also allows the common people to buy cheap fuel.

Whether it is called the first industrial revolution, or the steam age, or the second industrial revolution, or the electrical age.

Essentially similar.

Therefore, when the energy problem is not solved, the development of industry will bring harm to the people in the firewood energy society.

Just like a certain country in later generations.

When it is blocked, the energy needed for industrialization will be lost, and industrialization will enter a complete regression, and no solution can solve it.

The sign of the first industrial revolution was that the steam engine was widely used as power instead of the textile machine.

The textile industry is at the core, one of the main reasons for the success of Britain's first industrial revolution, but not the hallmark.

In terms of the scale and market of the textile industry, even Britain after the first industrial revolution cannot compare with the Jianghuai region.

The relocation of the headquarters of the Ministry of Railway Engineering was not considered a major event in Zhu Gaochi's eyes, because although he was invited, he did not agree to participate, and only asked the clerical office to send someone to congratulate him.

Although it is just an ordinary document, it is not ordinary if it represents the little prince.

The secretary delivered a congratulatory speech on the stage built.

"Knowing that the headquarters of the Ministry of Railway Engineering has been relocated from Daxing Zhonghua Heavy Industry Headquarters to Zhendingfu, I was entrusted by the little prince to congratulate the Ministry of Railway Engineering on its relocation, and on behalf of all the workers of China Heavy Industry, I would like to send my warmest congratulations to the headquarters of the Ministry of Railway Engineering .”

Wait for the paperwork to finish.

Xu Ning and Ma Lin were polite, and Xu Ning was the second to speak.

"Thank you, my little prince, for your congratulations. I also thank people from all walks of life for their appreciation, and I also thank all the colleagues in the engineering department for their full support..."

As the big shopkeeper who manages [-] railway workers, and even the department of China Heavy Industry that employs the most military households.

Xu Ning is no longer the apprentice in the past, who went out with hope and anxiety.

You are welcome to say.

Which of the guards in Beiping has never cooperated with the commander? Although there is no rank, the network of relationships maintained by the platform is already huge.

"Since the establishment of the Ministry of Railway Engineering, a railway with a length of [-] miles from north to south and [-] miles from east to west has been built in Beiping."

"Peking to Daning nearly a thousand miles of railway plan, from Peiping through Shanxi to Shanxi Xingdusi three thousand miles of railway."

"The main lines are planned to be successfully completed, and they are about to be completed, as well as the local branch railways up to [-] miles..."

"Create mountains when encountering mountains, and build bridges when encountering water. All the railway colleagues are working hard day and night to complete the goals of the headquarters with all their strength."

"To live up to the expectations of the prince and the little prince, the achievements of the Ministry of Railway Engineering today are undoubtedly great, and the results are gratifying."

"But the footsteps of railway workers will never stop, and they will not be satisfied with the present. The next stage of the railway plan will be even bigger, paving the way for industrialization."

"Shaanxi has a vast land and abundant resources. The land area is nearly four times that of Beiping and three times that of Shanxi. It is also a tough battle for the Ministry of Railway Engineering in the next stage."

"The railway to the north of Kaiping is the most urgently needed and the most focused railway section. The three railways here totaling [-] kilometers will also be the most urgent battlefield for the Ministry of Railway Engineering."

……

The Chief Secretary of Shaanxi, together with the Xingdu Division of Shaanxi, covers Ningxia, Gansu, later generations. Although the population is far less than that of Shanxi, the area is much larger.

It is also one of the main reasons why Zhu Yuanzhang's first vassal came here.

According to Zhu Gaochi's request, Shaanxi is also the place where investment is most urgent at the moment, and its level is higher than that of Shanxi.

Because Shanxi also has a King Jin.

It took an entire hour for the handover ceremony to officially land.

in the afternoon.

A restaurant hosted the banquet.

With the emergence of new demands and more and more such behaviors, restaurants have developed accordingly and began to provide large venues.

More than 300 people attended the banquet, most of whom were foreigners.

at the end of the field.

There were eight people sitting at the big round table.

These eight people all know each other and have the same identity. They were former trainees in the cabinet of the steam engine of China Heavy Industry, and they were even in charge.

"Let's go, there is no one at that table now."

The food on the table was ignored, and the diners all stared away.

Someone picked up the wine glass and stood up in a hurry, walking towards the middle area.

Ahead is the area where the bosses are located, as well as important guests, such as officials, or big businessmen like Zhang Dehui.

The central region is the management level within the Ministry of Railways, as well as important partners.

At the end is the level of the railway's internal team leader, and their small partners, who can't even talk about cooperation.

Eight people raised their wine glasses and came here to toast to others.

through conversations on both sides.

It turned out that these eight people were engaged in the decoration industry. During the construction of the railway headquarters factory area, they contracted many small projects.

For example, painting the walls, laying the ground, installing doors and windows, installing lamps, providing equipment and engineering projects such as tables and chairs.

The steam engine is the first factory of China Heavy Industry, and the steam engine outer cabinet department was born first, and has trained many talents with broad horizons.

With the rise of the China Heavy Industry factory, the staff of the steam engine outer cabinet have more directions.

It's like when the computer industry was just getting started.

Those who were the first to invest in the computer industry were undoubtedly blown up by the wind, and the first batch to enjoy the dividends of industry expansion.

This is the case for the staff in the outer cabinet of the steam engine.

There are Zhang Bo who broke the restrictions, and now the most famous businessman in Beiping, there is also Xu Ning, a veteran of China Heavy Industry.

These guys are all from the steam engine cabinet.

Most of the people have risen with the tide, and a small number of people have left the department. With the help of the relationship over the years, they have become a link in the countless downstream industrial chains of China Heavy Industry.

Zhang Bo is a "monster" bred in this environment.

More people don't have Zhang Bo's unconstrained and unconstrained courage. They mainly follow China Heavy Industry to make a living, which can be regarded as supplementing China Heavy Industry's ecological chain.

"I regret it very much now. I shouldn't have lost my mind back then. Why did I decide to leave China Heavy Industry?"

The man made a toast to his former colleague.

"Don't talk nonsense. I have been working with you for three years, and I still don't know you well. I knew you would leave sooner or later since you failed to compete for factory director."

The steward patted the man on the shoulder.

"Haha, you still understand me. I am a person with a lot of desires, and I can't stand rules. There are too many temptations outside."

"Everyone's pursuit is different. You are living so well now."

"Everything is good, but I am worried that one day China Heavy Industry will change its development direction, and our group of people will not be able to keep up."

"Don't worry, outsiders don't understand the development situation of our headquarters, so why don't you know that the little prince supports the downstream industry."

"Okay, there are many people who come to toast you, so I won't provoke the people waiting behind to scold me. I'll finish this glass of wine, you can do whatever you want."

A banquet hall with forty countertops.

The bright glass windows opened the floor-to-ceiling curtains to let the afterglow of the evening into the room, and the guys in the restaurant lit the candlesticks.

Others used thin chisels to remove the lanterns, and then hung them up high.

Red lights, yellow lights, and white lights illuminate the hall like daylight.

The current Zhonghua Heavy Industry has strict rules and a positive atmosphere.

The dishes on the table are exquisite but not extravagant, tasteful and not wasteful.

Avoid wasting food.

Not to mention the appearance of a wine hostess, it is expressly prohibited by China Heavy Industry, and any staff of China Heavy Industries is not allowed to have a wine hostess as a company.

If they are found, they will be dealt with together, and they will be severely punished.

Because with the appearance of color, it must be corruption.
