: Prepare for a rainy day

I was on my way to Tai'an City a few days ago and passed by it. At that time, there was a notice posted on the street that prohibited people from Anyi County from going to Xinfeng County to work.

A few days later, the wind became even more severe. At the junction of the two places, officials were actually arranged to set up a fence to prohibit entry and exit!

Seeing this scene, Wang Kang was also speechless. Dong Qian took great pains to prevent him from going smoothly.

But it’s essentially useless!

If I really want to go, can a fence stop me?

Wang Kang is also preparing to attract more people to live and settle in Xinfeng County. The first step is to poach people from Anyi County.

I am so angry with this Dong Qian.

When the convoy arrived at the post, Dong Qian was not there. His subordinates, perhaps seeing Wang Kang's strength in the past few days, did not stop him.

Instead, Wang Kang was allowed to pass directly.

The next step is to enter Xinfeng County, which is also the scope of his fiefdom, so naturally there will be nothing.

On the way, he saw that there were already many laborers doing construction work in the county town. This was the arrangement Wang Kanglin made when he went to Tai'an City, Yongzhou.

Some houses have been demolished and the foundations have been excavated in place...

Observing the whole journey through the car window, everything was carried out according to the plan he made, which was quite orderly.

From this point of view, Nie Zhongxing did a pretty good job.

When he returned to the county government office, Wang Kang didn't take a break and immediately summoned people to convene a meeting.

He will be away for five or six days and needs to know the progress of the project in detail...

"What are you going to do?"

Just as he was about to leave, Zhang Xianxian asked.

"Meeting."

"Meeting?" Zhang Xianxian was confused.

"Oh, it's so hard to communicate with you.

Wang Kang explained helplessly: "Just discussing some things!"

"I'm going too!"

"You are the enemy. This involves the secret development of our Xinfeng County. It is not convenient for you to participate." Wang Kang said directly.

"you……"

Zhang Xianxian paused for a moment, wanting to refute but couldn't.

"Aren't you here to see the scenery?" Wang Kang said with a smile: "I have already arranged the people. If you need anything, just let me know."

"goodbye!"

After that, Wang Kang ran away, leaving Zhang Xianxian stamping her feet with a sullen look on her face.

When we came to the meeting hall, everyone was already here, but there were a lot more people than at the beginning. This was because they were gradually promoted as the project progressed.

Now all parts are ready.

Fire bricks, cement firing, concrete processing, glass manufacturing, iron and steel smelting, production of new products, etc... have all begun to form a system.

When the construction of Xinfeng County is completed, these various industries will gradually expand in scale and form a complete industrial chain.

Complete Wang Kang’s layout of replacing agriculture with industry.

By then, Xinfeng County will be transformed into an industrial city.

And these things are not available in this era. Every one of them is in short supply. Only then will the real profits be made...

Based on this, we can develop and strengthen the power of the Earl's Palace. This is when the Earl's Palace of Fuyang will truly reveal itself in the Kingdom of Zhao!

Of course, you have to eat one bite at a time, and it will take some time to achieve your goal...

Wang Kang sat at the head of the table and looked at the people below him. Among them were several faces that he was not familiar with.

From only three or five people at the beginning, to more than a dozen people now, and to reach such a scale, it only took more than 20 days. Wang Kang is still very satisfied with this development speed.

Of course, this was all possible because of his money.

Exchange money for development time.

With a slight cough, Wang Kang attracted everyone's attention and said in a deep voice: "I have been away for a few days and just came back today. I specially called everyone together to discuss the matter so that I can have an understanding of the progress."

"Old Nie, just tell me first."

Nie Zhongxing is now Wang Kang's deputy and the adjutant of the Ministry of Works. Apart from Wang Kang, he controls the construction site and city construction and has great powers.

Nie Zhongxing, who previously served as the head of Xinfeng County, followed Wang Kang after he entered the city. He only wanted to develop Xinfeng County and let the people in the city live a good life.

This kind of thinking is worthy of Wang Kang's attention, and he himself is capable. He is also a native of Xinfeng County and has served as an official.

Most of the people working today are also from Xinfeng County, which makes communication easier.

After hearing Wang Kang's roll call, Nie Zhongxing stood up and said, "Reporting to Master Kang, more than half of the road construction has been completed. According to the current progress, it should be opened in about twenty days."

"In terms of city construction, we will also start planning according to your previous arrangements, demolish old residences and build new ones."

Wang Kang said: "Arrangements must be made for the demolished houses to avoid causing conflicts."

"Don't worry, we have already communicated with you. Director Lin's early publicity was very good, and the people are aware of it."

Nie Zhongxing said with a smile: "Master Kang is trying to improve the lives of the people. If anyone doesn't want to, then he is stupid."

"Don't just say what you say, talk about the problems!"

Wang Kang laughed and cursed.

Speaking of this, Nie Zhongxing said seriously: "Master Kang, the date has arrived in June, and the rainy season has also arrived!"

"Although it doesn't rain too frequently, Xinfeng County is in a mountainous area and is surrounded by mountains. As long as the rain is a little heavier, flash floods will occur..."

"In the past years, countless villages have been destroyed by flash floods. Now we are still doing construction. If there is a heavy rain, the impact will be huge."

Someone immediately echoed: "Director Nie is right. It will be rainy in June, so we must take precautions in advance."

After listening to what Nie Zhongxing said, Wang Kang also remembered that as far as he knew, the village where Liushan was located was hit by a flash flood before. He fled and met the third lady Li Mei, and they fell in love with each other.

This matter also attracted his attention.

Construction is going on everywhere now. On the road side, because tunnels are being built, he has already designed drainage ditches and so on in advance.

But there are many related things. The most affected is iron ore mining. The iron ore is located in the cracks of the mountains. If there is a heavy rain and a flash flood occurs, it will be dangerous.

Thinking about it, Wang Kang immediately ordered: "What will happen to God, we are not sure, but we must prepare for a rainy day."

"You guys discuss it and formulate a plan as soon as possible. You must consider everything comprehensively and how to deal with an emergency...and then implement it."

"Yes!" Several people responded.

"Go on...any more questions?"

Next, Wang Kang asked them one by one, including cement, fire brick firing, etc., and understood everything accordingly.

In the end, there were a few special people in charge, one was responsible for the production of iron ore, and the other was responsible for smelting iron and steel.

This is a relatively important place, and it needs to be kept confidential. The method of making steel must not be spread to outsiders.

"Uncle Deng, what's the problem with you here?"

Wang Kang asked a relatively older man.

He is a centurion general in the Earl's Palace, and he is responsible for the mining of iron ore.

Deng Yu said: "To tell you, young master, there is no big problem here. Everything is being mined normally. The iron ore reserves here are very large, and the mining difficulty is not high."

"So what about your side?" Wang Kang turned to a few craftsmen who were responsible for smelting iron and steel.
