If things don't go well, will they cause some problems with the building materials?
That's hard to say. In short, let the county government deal with this. He's just a town mayor who rented a piece of land to Xing Baohua.
Station Chief Zhou arrived in the county around noon. He quickly reported to his superiors before lunchtime.
I arrived in such a hurry that I didn't even have time to ask if the leaders were busy. Turns out the main leaders were in a big meeting, so I had no choice but to wait in line in the afternoon.
It wasn't until after 3 PM that I met with the county leaders and listened to Mayor Zhou's report. I received a reply that the county would fully support the town's work, providing manpower and materials as needed. Furthermore, the county construction company was instructed to send personnel to support the Guoli Town construction company.
This is such a small job, it should only take half a month to complete, right? If we don't finish it, how can we live up to General Peng's praise of this "hometown of architecture"?
Let's show the grandeur of our hometown of architecture and launch a major campaign.
The county has eight townships, and each township has its own construction company. They have drawn personnel from all over the place, from construction workers to technicians, and have assembled about seventeen or eighteen companies.
Once these people were in place, they began helping Zhang Lei with blueprints, budgets, and materials.
The materials clerk sent by the county took a day and a night to compile a list of all the building materials and report the required steel specifications to the county. The county then negotiated with Zhang Gang to urgently procure a batch of steel.
Cement plants, brick factories, and sand plants are being urgently prepared and mobilized. Several rice companies in the city are paying substantial taxes. The city is using the tax revenue from cost-cutting measures to start construction, as building materials are in short supply.
They've used over 200,000 bricks alone. All ten brick factories in the county are out of stock, so they have to fire them on the spot, which will take time. It will take almost half a month to gather enough bricks. We can't afford to wait that long.
The only option is to transfer personnel from surrounding districts and counties. County leaders take this matter very seriously, personally overseeing the coordination and also reporting it to the city.
Using these connections alone, Zhang Lei's small construction company simply couldn't have completed the project. Of course, he was also under a lot of pressure. Although he was in charge of the project, many superiors came to visit, and the daily food expenses alone amounted to three to five hundred yuan.
If Xing Baohua hadn't provided 300,000 yuan in start-up capital, his company wouldn't have been able to survive for more than a few days with the little money in its account.
As resources continued to arrive, more and more migrant workers joined the workforce, primarily welders and skilled workers. A group of bricklayers also joined, all of whom were unemployed farmers from villages surrounding Guoli Town.
A loudspeaker was all it took to summon three or four hundred people. The wages were high, and they worked in two shifts to meet the deadline.
As is customary, a ceremony is required for groundbreaking. Mayor Zhou dialed the phone number Xing Baohua had given him.
A very sweet voice asked who the other person was.
Mayor Zhou suggested mentioning the groundbreaking ceremony and seeing if Xing Baohua could be invited to attend. This way, the county leaders could meet with this big spender, and if they could even discuss some economic projects, Xing Baohua would be seen as important by the county leaders.
Then, Xie Yingying relayed Xing Baohua's exact words: "Stop with the formalities, getting it finished quickly is more important than anything else. Let's just set off a few firecrackers on the construction site as a symbolic gesture!"
