Chapter 4 Yucai Road Project



"Well, I'll throw in the towel and offer my advice. My idea is to build the entire three-mile road from east to west all at once, leaving enough space for future construction. My initial plan is to have a 15-meter redline and a 9-meter road surface. Drainage ditches will be dug on both sides, with curbstones and water scoops. The middle of the road will be raised. If the budget allows, we'll pave it with cement. If not, we'll start with gravel and then build a cement road later when we have the opportunity."

Sun Zongyuan took a sip of water and continued, "Straighten the roads, reduce high places and fill low places, and gradually lower the road surface from west to east according to the terrain. This will reduce the amount of engineering work and budget expenditure, and solve the problem while spending less money and getting more done. That's all I can think of," Sun Zongyuan said as he thought.

"Does anyone have anything to add? Oh, no objections. Then please ask Sun Zongyuan to write a plan based on the proposal just now and report it to me before leaving get off work. I will review it and then report it to the secretary and mayor. Oh, it's 12 o'clock. Does Principal Jiang have anything to add?" said the township head Wang.

"On behalf of all the teachers and students of the school, I would like to thank the township party committee and government, and thank all the leaders present. I prepared a working meal today, on the one hand to thank the leaders for coming, and on the other hand to welcome technician Sun."

Principal Jiang is a very good person. At noon, Township Head Wang and several others drank a few glasses of wine at the elementary school. Village Party Secretary Li Zhidong actually drank seven or eight glasses and passed out drunk under the table.

Sun Zongyuan did not drink any wine. He toasted everyone with two glasses of water and drank two glasses of water with the village chief Wang alone. The village chief Wang was very satisfied.

After the courtesy toast, Sun Zongyuan quickly picked up a few dishes and ate two steamed buns on the pretext of work, and returned to the office early.

In my previous life, I was used to paperless office. Who doesn't know computers? Now there are no computers in the whole township. Then I picked up a pen and supplemented and improved the road construction plan I had made in the morning. Finally, I copied it again and checked it for mistakes. The handwriting was elegant and dignified. After all, I studied calligraphy for two or three years in a normal school, and I was a member of the municipal calligraphers association in my previous life.

At half past three, Sun Zongyuan thought that Village Chief Wang should have sobered up, so he took the plan to his office and knocked on the door. Village Chief Wang washed his face, picked up Sun Zongyuan's plan and looked through it. If there was anything he didn't understand, Sun Zongyuan would explain it to him.

Township head Wang added the political significance and, after further consideration, decided to have the seven villages in the Honghua work area volunteer to undertake the task of building Yucai Road. He also proposed that during the farmland water conservancy construction after autumn, if the workload was similar, the seven villages in the Honghua work area would no longer be asked to undertake additional tasks.

The funds for blasting explosives and building bridges and culverts used in road construction are borne by the township finances, and the road construction engineering team is responsible for construction.

An engineering command center was established, with the secretary and township head as the commander-in-chief, Township Head Wang and Zhang Qingcai from Honghua Township as deputy commanders, and relevant personnel including Sun Zongyuan as members. Several groups were set up under the command center, with Township Head Wang as the supervisory group leader, and Sun Zongyuan also had his first position: technical service group leader.

After returning to the office, Sun Zongyu spent half an hour copying the improved plan. At 4:30, he reported it to the village chief Wang. Village chief Wang took a quick look at it, patted Sun Zongyu on the shoulder and said, "This is the best plan I have ever seen. I didn't expect you to consider the problem so comprehensively and have such good writing skills. You can leave work at 5 o'clock. It's very rare to start working on the first day of work."

The next day at work, as soon as Sun Zongyu put down his bicycle, the village chief Wang came to him and informed him of the report he had given to the secretary and the village chief yesterday afternoon. Sun Zongyu's plan was passed smoothly, with basically no changes except for a few words.

"Secretary Li and Township Head Zhao are both very satisfied. They said that you have such good writing skills and it would be a shame for you not to be a secretary."

"Village head Wang, you must be joking. How could I be a secretary? I'm good at technical work."

"The Party Committee meeting will be held soon, and you will come with me to attend."

At half past nine, Sun Zongyan sat in the Party Committee meeting room for the first time and attended the Party Committee's special meeting to study the Yucai Road project. He accepted all the opinions put forward in the meeting and instructed Mayor Wang to take the lead and ensure that all preparations for the start of construction are completed within a week.

After the meeting, Township Chief Wang convened a preparatory meeting attended by Zhang Qingcai, Li Zhidong, Sun Zongyuan, and the heads of the police station, finance office, primary school, and other departments. The meeting was chaired by Township Chief Wang, and Sun Zongyuan conveyed the division of labor:

The police station is responsible for the construction environment improvement. No one is allowed to interfere with the construction project at will. If the situation is serious, the person will be arrested directly. In addition, the demand for explosives for road construction must be guaranteed.

The Finance Office is responsible for the implementation of bridge project funds, explosives funds and related materials to ensure the command center’s lunchtime needs.

The primary school is responsible for informing students' parents and asking them to cooperate with the construction of Zhenhua Road.

Sun Zongyu is responsible for road planning, investigation and design, calculation of project quantities, distribution of project quantities to seven villages, and takes the lead in road construction technology and project quality.

Zhang Qingcai was responsible for organizing people from seven villages in the work area to work, striving to complete the construction within ten days and ensure construction safety.

Li Zhidong was responsible for doing a good job in mass work, clearing the land, and relocating the three houses involved.

Mayor Wang made an emphasizing summary at the end.

After the meeting, Sun Zongyan said to the village head Wang: "Village head Wang, I have a ritual for planning and laying out the lines, but no one knows how to use it. A lot of calculations are still required after the design, and I need someone with good math grades to assist me. Otherwise, if I do it alone, firstly, I won't be able to do it, and secondly, it will take a long time, which will delay the construction and affect the autumn harvest."

"Do you have any good ideas?" Village chief Wang became anxious when he heard this.

“I don’t know if you have someone like this to help me.”

"I don't have such a person, if you have one, just say it directly."

"I have two students who are good at math and know some road engineering skills. Can I bring them here to work?" said Sun Zongyuan.

"What's your name? Tell me and I'll ask the secretary for instructions," said the village head, Wang.

Sun Zongyuan reported the names to the village head Wang. After getting a rough idea of ​​the two men's situation, the village head Wang hurried to report to the secretary.

After a while, the village head Wang came to find Sun Zongyu and said, "Zongyu, the secretary agrees in principle to the two people you proposed to assist you. If they perform well and have skills within a year, they can be included in the village's temporary worker team. They will have the opportunity to be converted to state cadres in the future. You can do it first. The secretary asked me to make a supplementary report at the next party committee meeting."

"That's great, I'll notify them this afternoon."

Around two or three o'clock in the afternoon, Zhang Hongzhi and Shao Shicheng rushed to the Honghua Township Water Conservancy Station. They also brought with them a level and theodolite borrowed from the Urban Construction School. Sun Zhiyuan taught them how to use them in the afternoon. Although the instruments were complicated, they were just repairing a simple section of road and did not use many functions in practice, so the two of them basically mastered how to use them in the afternoon. When it was almost dark, the three of them carried the instruments out of the government compound and found a mountain road to practice. Sun Zongyuan corrected the two's mistakes in use. The two used to worship Teacher Sun as a god, but now they admire him even more.

When he returned home and had dinner, it was already eight o'clock. Sun Zongyuan came to Secretary Li Jianguo's house and found that Secretary Li had not returned home yet. He took a slow walk around the yard, waiting for Secretary Li to come home.
