Agriculture Maniac

Chapter 132: Features of Shiliying

What Yu Yang saw before him was an extremely unfamiliar Yujia Village.

Apart from the small Western-style buildings and the small bungalows planned on both sides of the road leading into the village, the rest of the place, as far as the eye can see, are shacks built in a disorderly manner.

Some of these shacks have one-meter-high adobe walls, with a few wooden sticks on top, a layer of plastic tarpaulin discarded from trucks, and then a few bricks and stones on top.

Some use wooden stakes as support, with a circle of cement sacks that have been disassembled and sewn together tied around them, and then a few asbestos tiles are built on top.

Some people also use straw mats, iron sheets, discarded furniture and idle vehicles to build various kinds of "houses".

There are so many houses that they form narrow alleys filled with smelly water and garbage.

Being in it, you can vaguely hear snoring, quarreling, reading, cutting vegetables...

If you look far away, you will see messy clothes drying, freshly washed baby diapers, penned chicks, and running dogs...

Yu Yang suddenly thought of the product of an era, the urban village.

But the current conditions are obviously not as good as those of urban villages. They should be called villages outside the village or slums.

Then a set of data emerged in his mind.

At the turn of the millennium, the number of people living in slums worldwide was approximately 10 billion, accounting for 16% of the world's total population.

By 20, with the rapid development of the global economy and the assistance provided by the World Health Organization, the number of people living in slums had risen to 21 billion, accounting for 30% of the world's total population.

Therefore, the faster the economic development, the greater the gap between the rich and the poor.

Therefore, slums are a problem that is difficult to avoid in the process of urban development.

It can be said that as long as the region has a certain economic scale and agglomeration effect, it will always attract more and more immigrants from rural areas and surrounding small and medium-sized cities, further aggravating the slum phenomenon.

Fortunately, the shacks outside Yujia Village are not real slums.

Just like the one we visited in Yuyang.

The two-year-old baby was put into a bamboo basket, and then the lid was tied and hung under the beam. The little baby was left crying heartbreakingly, but there was no one at home.

Ask someone to call the other party's parents...

My mother didn't show up, but my father came running over in his camouflage uniform covered in mud.

"Leader, we don't want to be like this either. I paint walls at a construction site for 26 yuan a day, my wife picks vegetables in the canteen for 18 yuan a day, and my parents clean fishing nets by the lake, and the two of them make 15 yuan a day."

"If I leave one person to take care of him, I will definitely earn a lot less in a year."

"We earn this money to buy him a house so that he doesn't have to live here like us in the future."

In rural areas, in most families, the father goes out to work, the mother stays at home to farm, and the grandparents help out.

That is to say, out of a family of five or six, only one is earning money.

In 99, the monthly income of this family reached 2000 yuan.

Although we cannot be said to be well-off, we are definitely not poor.

You can take a look at the other person’s living environment…

While Yu Yang was playing with the baby, he took out his cell phone to contact the office.

"We need to build a large nursery as soon as possible, and it would be best if it could be put into use within a week. By then, all employees of the Sanyuan plant, whether regular or hired, can entrust their children to the school for care."

"Boss, we can't even spare any houses right now, let alone large venues."

"Where is the grain station?"

"They were all full, and the three large tiled houses were separated into three small rooms, with two families living in each small room. Even the newly established street office was squeezed into one small room for work."

“So many people packed in?”

"Boss, before the Spring Festival, the population of Shiliying soared from 3 to 10, and after the New Year it soared from 10 to 30, and the number is increasing every day."

"We have set up checkpoints at every entrance and exit of the factory, but we can't stop people from outside from coming in?"

"How can we stop people who come in from the bean fields with their mouths on their backs? Village Chief Huang had planned to put up a circle of iron nets around the factory area, but later he gave up because of the cost issue and the fact that the iron nets might not be able to stop them."

"..."

Yu Yang suddenly thought of Shenzhen.

It is said that many business tycoons got rich by drilling through the iron net in the early stage of Shenzhen's development.

Actually, think about it.

When Shiliying develops to a certain stage and begins large-scale demolition, the shacks in front of us will definitely be able to get demolition compensation.

Because the threshold for settling in Yujia Village is to pay a handling fee of 2 to 5 yuan, and then obtain the right to use construction land of 20 to 50 square meters.

Otherwise, it would be impossible for this family to build a shack here, and even if they did, it would be demolished.

In deep thought.

There were bursts of recorded shouts coming from outside using a small loudspeaker.

"Tonight at 11 o'clock, at the intersection on the south side of Hangai, there will be 150 trucks of cement. Each truck will be unloaded for 50 yuan. We need 300 people. Only laborers are allowed. If you want to go, please sign up quickly... Let me be frank. If you sign up and get the corresponding license plate number, but don't go to unload the goods, I will definitely kick you out of Yujia Village."

"After 12 o'clock tonight, at Taiqian Railway Station, there are 120 carriages of wood. People follow the semi-trailer to unload and reload. Each car is 60 yuan, and 480 people are needed, regardless of gender..."

"Tomorrow morning, the red bricks from the Jiuxian Township brick kiln will be loaded onto trucks. Each red brick costs 5 cents..."

Along with the shouting, faint voices of conversation could be heard.

"Second Master, this is my nephew. He just graduated from high school and has been idle at home. He just came here. Do you think he can sign up?"

"If you are not from Yujia Village, you can't."

"Second Master, have a smoke."

"I can't break the rules, otherwise Sanyuan won't recognize me as his second grandfather. How can I enter the ancestral forest after a hundred years?"

"We are all in the same village, please help us."

"Your nephew?"

"Yes."

"A close nephew?"

"My sister's son."

"You can't lie to me. A few days ago, Yu Tiezhu from the east end of the village said that a stranger was his son's brother-in-law and asked me to arrange a job for him for a small profit of 3000 yuan. Later, it was found that I whipped Yu Tiezhu 50 times, and his back was covered with bruises. Now he is still lying in the village clinic and applying Chinese medicine."

"Don't worry, Master. I will never lie."

"Well, since we are from the same village, he is your nephew, and he has a high school education, then I will make some arrangements..."

The second grandfather flipped through the notebook and read: "Sanyuan Building Materials Group has just been established and is recruiting product promotion managers to promote ballastless tracks, precast concrete components, and customized steel structure products.

The customer groups are mainly Dongshanfu railway organizations, urban rail transit organizations in various cities, and large construction groups... What's your name?"

"Hu Wei, well, Second Grandpa, I only graduated from high school, can I do this job?"

"Normally, the admission threshold for Sanyuan Building Materials Group is a bachelor's degree. With your qualifications, you can't even think of getting in, but you are the nephew of Yujia Village, so this is easy. I will call Xiao Tao, the person in charge of Sanyuan Building Materials Group, and you can start work today."

"Why don't you thank me quickly, Master?"

"Thank you Grandpa Second."

"We are all family members... In addition, you should inform the people that the requirements for settling in Yujia Village have been raised to 20 to 50 yuan, and the allocated construction land area remains unchanged, still 20 to 50 square meters."

"so tall?"

"As salaries increase, the threshold must be raised. Otherwise, if outsiders flock in, these shacks will have to cross the highway and extend to Hangai."

After Second Grandpa finished speaking, he saw Yu Yang walking out of the low shack and quickly greeted him, "Sanyuan, why are you here?"

"There's a fire in the north. I'm coming to take a look."

"Oh, it was noon. A little kid in the Red Education Class didn't go to the cafeteria after school. He wanted to go home and cook a meal for his parents. He accidentally set the oil pan on fire. Fortunately, no one was hurt."

"Who is in charge of our shantytown?"

"The old branch secretary is in charge of finance, your grandfather is in charge of discipline, the population director is in charge of household registration, the women's director is in charge of childbirth, and I am the head of the village's economic affairs office, mainly to solve employment problems... In the first quarter, our village took in more than 7600 million yuan."

"so much?"

"More than 2600 households have settled here, and we charge 2 to 4 yuan for each household. Then there is the income from the village's collective industries and the leasing of the village's collective land."

"It's good, but this shack needs to be renovated. When the weather is hot, it is easy to cause clustered diseases."

"I know. The village committee has purchased a large amount of quicklime and disinfectant. We will disinfect regularly in the future and try to do the best we can."

"Tsk tsk, I didn't expect you to speak official language... What I mean is that although we can't solve the slum phenomenon, we can use existing products to change the current situation."

"Ok?"

"Tear down the shacks, divide the land into zones, build large steel-structured plastic greenhouses, and isolate rooms ranging from 20 to 50 square meters. At the same time, solve the problems of power supply, water supply, dry toilets, and centralized garbage disposal. With our current human, financial, and material resources, it is estimated that we can make a big change here in three days and make it well-proportioned."

"We have also thought about this method, but the problem is that we need to collect villagers' opinions. It was easy to solve with only two or three hundred households before, but now it is three or four thousand households..."

"Taxation is bullshit. Anyone who disagrees is not a villager of our village."

Yu Yang waved his hand, "It's settled. After three days, if I don't see what I want, you all leave Yu Village."

"……"soon.

The loud speakers mounted on many watchtowers announced the demolition of Yujia Village.

At 3 p.m., Sanyuan Construction Group recruited construction workers from Pingyang County to form a demolition team and went door to door to notify people to take away babies, carry away old men and women, and transport away dog ​​cages and chicken cages...

At 4 o'clock in the afternoon, bulldozers entered the site and dump trucks rushed back and forth.

At 6pm, the pile driver entered the venue...

At 8 o'clock in the evening, the steel arrived and the welding machine entered the site...

At 12 o'clock in the morning, amid the sound of cutting, rows and rows of plastic greenhouses were laid out to the east towards Pingdong Lake, to the north towards the brick kiln industrial zone, to the south across the provincial road towards Shili Mall, and to the west to the highway...

The next morning.

Brick Kiln Multimedia Conference Room.

The chairman of the Municipal Second Construction Company, who is in charge of the shack renovation project, reported on his work:
"The steel-structured plastic greenhouse is 50 meters long and 30 meters wide. It is partitioned inside with 'iron-wrapped sound insulation cotton', with entrances and exits at both ends and a corridor in the middle.

There are fifteen households in the north and south. The southern households are 3.2 meters wide and 6.5 meters long, and the northern households are 3.2 meters wide and 15 meters long, trying to make up for the area of ​​the villagers' original shacks.

One plastic greenhouse can accommodate 30 households. 2000 greenhouses are being installed this time. When all are completed, it can accommodate 6 households, almost solving the housing problem of the entire Shiliying at one time.

Later we will improve the structure of the plastic greenhouse, install ventilation facilities, fire-fighting facilities, and pave cement roads.”

Yu Yang looked at the PPT that had been prepared overnight, as well as the various design drawings, planning drawings, structural drawings, and bird's-eye views that were presented on it.

"Very good, this is also our local feature."

“It’s just that plastic roofs are not durable, especially when residents use fire to cook, which will accelerate the aging of the plastic paper. They must be replaced once a year, and they may even leak due to children throwing debris at them.

Furthermore, the heat insulation is not good. In the summer, a greenhouse effect occurs inside, and ordinary people cannot sit still.

So I discussed with Fan Tao that we planned to jointly invest in the development of a thermal insulation material to be used for thermal insulation and cooling of the tops of residential plastic greenhouses, breeding farm greenhouses, and many production and processing plants.”

When Yu Yang heard this, a series of thermal insulation products immediately emerged in his mind.

Thermal insulation film, thermal insulation cotton, thermal insulation board, thermal insulation oil, thermal insulation paint...

In summer, the sun shines on the surface of objects, causing the surface temperature to rise to 70-80℃.

Some of these materials can reduce the surface temperature of an object by 30°C, while others can reduce the surface temperature by 40°C.

It can even keep heat and reflect ultraviolet rays...

Of course, the effects are different and the production costs are different.

Referring to the existing resources at home, the best choice is definitely fire-proof and waterproof thermal insulation coating.

Especially when using the dock to configure the asphalt concrete of ballastless track, the dock has reflected parameters such as waterproofing, fireproofing, sound insulation, light reflection, ultraviolet reflection, and absorption and weakening of infrared rays in the cement ingredient list.

"Sure enough, the most amazing building in our house is not the town center, nor the stables or the blacksmith shop, but the dock where we can build a ship in the future."

Yu Yang pondered for a moment and looked at the chairman of the Municipal Second Construction Company. “When we were developing ballastless tracks, we used a waterproof, fireproof and high-temperature resistant cement paint. Later, when we developed inks, pigments, etc., we removed some inorganic substances from plant-based materials.

According to researchers, these inorganic substances mixed with cement paint can be used as reflective and heat-insulating coatings.

However, this needs to be confirmed by researchers.”

The chairman of the Municipal Second Construction Company did not ask where the researcher came from, because this is the company's core secret, otherwise where did the Sany bean seeds come from?

"Boss, when can we start mass production?"

"Let me ask over there. If it meets the requirements, the new cement paint will be produced by Fan Tao's building materials company, and your company will be responsible for the related construction."

"it is good!"

……

noon.

Yu Yang came to the dock, found the asphalt concrete formula, copied the cement ingredient list from it, and then referred to the ingredients of some inorganic reflective thermal insulation coatings from another time and space to configure a new type of cement paint.

For him, with his extensive construction experience in another time and space, this was not a difficult task.

Just a moment.

A grayish white viscous cement liquid appeared before our eyes.

Looking at the properties, it is a reflective, heat-insulating, high-temperature-resistant, fire-proof and waterproof material.

No sound insulation effect.

But by adding a lightweight concrete formula, also known as cement foam technology, it can soundproof.

By adding mineral powder and fly ash, it can prevent corrosion.

If we continue to add the remaining reagents for the development of ballastless track and reduce some of the ingredients of the new cement paint, it can also speed up the solidification speed, resist high temperatures, reflect ultraviolet rays, absorb and weaken infrared rays...

Yu Yang backed up all the formulas, wrote down the simplest new cement paint, and then asked Fan Tao to arrange people to transport cement and related ingredients to start trial production at the ballastless track prefabrication plant on the spot.

The company purchased cement worth tens of billions of yuan from the cement factory in Liao City, which directly gave birth to a prehistoric giant - Shanshui Group.

What Sanyuan Building Materials Group lacks the least now is cement.

In order to produce "prefabricated concrete components", the company purchased a large amount of ingredients, aggregates, and steel from surrounding cities and counties, so there is definitely no shortage of related ingredients.

On the second day.

The first batch of trial-produced new cement paint has been applied to the top of the first completed plastic greenhouse.

Day three.

2000 plastic greenhouses were completed under the contract of Sanyuan Construction, the largest general contracting company in Dongshan.

A total of 300 bulldozers were deployed, including 150 provided by Shantui.

There are also hundreds of excavators, dozens of pile drivers, and 5 construction workers recruited by Sanyuan Construction from Pingyang.

The massive construction process is like a passing storm.

Wait until the fourth day.

After the new cement paint was applied, Shiliying looked like a sunny day after the rain, and it was clean and tidy inside and out.

"Residential steel-structured plastic greenhouses... can be considered a feature of Shiliying."

“Perhaps this is also a product of the times.”

Yu Yang stood in the sentry tower on top of the brick kiln chimney, looking around with a cannon-shaped telescope. He was quite satisfied with everything at the moment.

Then he looked at the plastic greenhouse nursery that had been planned to be set up and was now in use.

Relevant supporting facilities are being built and recruitment information for kindergarten teachers has also been released.

Perhaps two weeks at most will solve the problem of an unattended baby.

At this time, the city police chief called.

"Xiao Yu, Jiang Quan has been released. The Beijing High Court has declared him innocent and cleared him of the theft of Trinity bean seeds."

"Fujima must have spent a lot of money to make that tiger work so hard."

"Can I ask around?"

"Neither the boss nor the city manager can get the inside information, so what can you find out? Forget it, this matter has nothing to do with us."

After chatting with the city police chief for a while, Yu Yang planned to climb down the brick kiln chimney and chat with Mrs. Smith.

Unexpectedly, a 3D bird's-eye view suddenly popped up in my field of vision.

In the picture, the factory tracks are constructed in multiple sections and run in parallel. After being connected to each other, they reach the Tianwai Bridge.

In an instant, Pingdong, Pingyang, the northern part of Fei City, the western part of Tai City, and the Dongyue Scenic Area were connected into one, and the colors on the map all turned into their own blue.

[You have occupied 62% of the land in the current area (Tai City), triggering the decisive battle.]
Then, a group of armored and helmeted bandits jumped into view.

Go!

Kill!
Then a huge sword symbol was posted on the Taishi Municipal Compound.

[Occupy this place and gain a first-level town center.]
Seeing this, Yu Yang quickly took out his cell phone and dialed the boss's number.

"Boss, have you moved out?"

"what?"

"Move out of the city compound. Construction will start there tonight. The logistics distribution center project will be launched."

"So fast?"

"Haven't you seen the changes in Shiliying?"

"I saw it. It was moving frighteningly fast, but we haven't cleaned it up yet."

"It's too late. The bulldozer has already boarded the train."

"..."
