Wang Tianxiao completely ignored the doorman's words.
The doorman had no choice but to raise his voice, "I'm asking you a question, what exactly do you want?"
Wang Tianxiao then opened his eyes, looked at the gatekeeper, pointed at himself, and asked, "Are you asking me?"
The gatekeeper cursed under his breath, "This kid, he's putting on an act."
But seeing the engineer's car blocked, it wouldn't be good not to deal with it quickly, so they had no choice but to patiently say, "Could you please move your car? You're blocking our gate."
“It can’t be moved.” Wang Tianxiao shook his head.
"Why not just start the car and pull over to the side?"
"I can't move until I see Director Li. I'll just move my car if you tell me if Director Li is at the station or when he'll be back, otherwise I'll wait for him here."
“Hey, young man, our Director Li has so many things to do. He’s not someone you can just see whenever you want. If everyone wanted to see him, how would he get any other work done?”
"That won't do. I won't leave until I see him."
"Why are you still clinging to this?" The old gatekeeper was dumbfounded. This was the first time he had encountered such a stubborn person who was inflexible and dared to act like a scoundrel at the gate of a government building.
"Either you let me in, or I'll keep waiting. That's it, I have plenty of time."
The doorman was completely dumbfounded.
He saw Wang Tianxiao close his eyes again and start to sleep.
Meanwhile, the two engineers gave him a look that said, "Damn it, hurry up, we have other things to do."
The gatekeeper had no choice but to grit his teeth and say, "Fine, fine, I'm afraid of uneducated people like you. Move the car first, and I'll take you to see Director Li later."
"That won't do. What if I move it and you're lying to me?"
"Why would I lie to you!" The doorman felt his reputation had been insulted and raised his voice, "I'm not that kind of person."
"Really not?"
"Of course not," the doorman almost swore.
Wang Tianxiao then smiled, jumped off the motorcycle, and pushed it to the side.
Only then were the construction vehicles able to enter.
Perhaps to prove that he was a trustworthy person, the gatekeeper said to Wang Tianxiao as soon as the construction vehicle entered, "Come over and register."
"OK."
When Wang Tianxiao arrived at the gatehouse to register, he said with a smile, "Isn't it okay to see you? Why do you insist on saying no? I thought I had to write an application. It's so troublesome."
"Know when to stop. It's only because I'm being merciful that I let you in. If you keep nagging, I'll close the door right now."
“You wouldn’t do that, you’re not the kind of person who lacks integrity,” Wang Tianxiao said with a smile, putting down his pen.
"..." The gatekeeper was speechless.
The gatekeeper picked up the register and was taken aback when he saw that Wang Tianxiao had registered the reason as "electricity outage." "Didn't you just say you were from the forest farm?"
"yes."
"Why would you want to install electricity at the forest farm?" the gatekeeper sneered. "You ignorant fool, do you know anything? Do you even know how much it costs to lay power lines?"
"What do you mean?"
Just as the gatekeeper was about to say something, he saw a middle-aged man riding a bicycle back from outside. Upon seeing him, the gatekeeper immediately ran out the door to greet him, "Chief Li, you're back?"
"Hmm." Director Li seemed unfriendly to the gatekeeper, casually nodding and preparing to go inside, but quickly noticed Wang Tianxiao standing outside the gatehouse and asked, "What are you doing here?"
Wang Tianxiao never expected to run into Director Li so easily.
In fact, the reason he came to the power station this time was because he knew that ordinary people simply couldn't solve the problem of power outages at the station.
The reason is quite simple.
Because electric current is like water flowing from the power station to all the transformers and finally into every household, it cannot skip directly. Instead, like a canal, a channel for transmission needs to be built first.
The channels for electricity are electrical circuits, and the facilities are utility poles and public lines.
The erection of public lines and utility poles must be planned and not done arbitrarily; it must meet two basic conditions.
To cover more users and minimize power consumption during delivery.
Electrical wires... can also lose electrical energy.
Judging by these two principles, it's hard to imagine that a power station located halfway up a mountain, with no houses around, would be covered by electrical circuits.
Although all the mountaintops in later generations have electricity, in this era, before electricity reached every household, it was no small feat to get power directly to power stations.
Without communication with the power supply station, it would be impossible to implement this.
Wang Tianxiao walked up to Director Li, offered him a cigarette, and said with a smile, "It's like this, Director Li, I heard that we're going to send electricity to the countryside, so I wanted to know how to connect the electricity."
"This matter has already been publicized to every village. You should ask your village chief what he's doing here?"
As Director Li spoke, he prepared to push the cart into the office.
Wang Tianxiao hurriedly took a few steps to catch up, "Director Li, there's something special about this situation; it's a bit different from the usual ones."
"Oh?" Director Li was quite patient, stopping in his tracks. "Why are you special?"
"It's like this, Director Li, are you familiar with Yangziling?"
"Yangziling, I think I've heard of it. Is it the mountain to the west?"
“You’re right, Yangziling is a branch of Ziwuling. I’m a forest ranger specifically assigned to Yangziling by the Municipal Forestry Bureau…”
"You're not thinking of sending electricity to Yangziling, are you?" Director Li suddenly guessed what Wang Tianxiao was about to say and interrupted him in surprise.
