Ants exploded, I opened a power plant to supply power to the world

Chapter 253 Chapter 252 Comparison of changes before and after joining Zhetong Electric Power
Lin Zhe, who was standing next to him, naturally understood what Nong Weiqi meant when he heard this. This was definitely a good thing for the group.

After he finished speaking, Nong Weiqi specially expressed his gratitude to Lin Zhe.

"Boss Lin, on behalf of the hundreds of thousands of people here who have access to electricity thanks to your Zhetong Power, I would like to express my gratitude to you. In the future, this number may be in the millions or tens of millions! Thank you for your contribution to the power supply of the northwest region!"

Chuckling and nodding, Lin Zhe agreed with Nong Weiqi's evaluation.

"Mr. Nong, there is no such thing as gratitude or not. They are all users of our group. They pay for our electricity. This is just a supply and demand relationship. If we want to express gratitude, we should thank these local villagers for supporting Zhetong."

After all the nice talk, everyone was happy. Then Lin Zhe introduced Nong Weiqi to him.

The first batch of areas that have completed power supply includes 98 towns and villages, including Huaixi County, which has benefited hundreds of thousands of people.

The second list has come out, covering a total of 200 townships and towns in Gansu Province, which is more than double the number of the first list.

Tomorrow, work will begin at the locations on the second list, and the vacation for the power operators in Zhetong in the northwest region will soon end, and they will return to work.

Moreover, in the third and fourth batches, as the personnel continue to be completed, there will be more and more of them. We will strive to ensure that all rural residents in the northwest region have access to stable and convenient electricity supply before the end of the year.

Nong Weiqi was shocked after hearing what Lin Zhe said.

To be honest, he believed this number only because he understood Zhetong Power Group and knew that Lin Zhe would not brag. If it were any other power company, even the largest power company in the province, Nong Weiqi would not believe it.

It sounds hard to believe that electricity will be supplied to all rural and township areas by the end of the year.

Only Zhetong Power can really do it in so many township areas in less than a year. After all, the "island power supply station" model they are currently adopting really saves a lot of costs and time.

If it were other power companies, they would probably have to install the wires step by step to complete the power supply.

In this case, it would be a blessing to complete the basic power construction in the townships and villages in the province within three years, let alone one year.

……

Jincheng, Yu Hongbo’s home.

Since completing the power supply construction in Huaixi County last time, Yu Hongbo's vacation has come to an end after returning home to rest for a few days. He has to return to the group tomorrow to start the next batch of work.

For dinner today, my wife naturally prepared a large table of dishes, all of which were Yu Hongbo’s favorites.

According to the daughter-in-law, even if Yu Hongbo wanted to eat the food she cooked in the next two days, he would not be able to eat it, so today he must satisfy his craving.

Braised tofu croquettes, sweet and sour pork tenderloin and fried hairtail, plus a dish of braised prawns and a bowl of egg drop soup, the table is complete.

"Wife, the hairtail fish you fried today is really good. Your cooking skills have improved again."

"That's right, why don't you check who your wife is? Turn on the TV and watch TV."

As he said that, he turned on the TV, and then the two of them sat in front of the TV, eating and chatting. This is a scene in countless warm families.

As the plates on the table were "halfway done", today's news began to be broadcast.

Because they are locals of Jincheng, the channel they chose is Gansu TV, and this is their news time before the 7 o'clock show.

"Hello, audience friends, today is..."

After the host announced today's date, he began to officially broadcast the news.

"Today, the provincial government... Nong Weiqi came to the Jincheng plant of Zhetong Electric Power to inspect the work. Nong Weiqi spoke highly of the power supply operations carried out by Zhetong Electric Power in the northwest region..."

Normally, when the two of them turn on the TV, they just listen to the noise and use it as background noise, just like most people do. In fact, what happens in the news has nothing to do with most of them.

But today, the TV news came out that their top leader went to inspect the Jincheng plant of Zhetong Electric Power where Yu Hongbo was working, so this naturally deserves attention.

"Old Yu! Look, isn't this your company?"

"Yes, good fellow, our Mr. Nong went to the group to inspect the work."

As they talked, the two of them looked at it carefully. The Gansu Provincial TV station gave it quite enough space, using a full eight minutes to introduce the matter. It also introduced the Zhetong Power Group to the TV viewers, including their ongoing power supply operations in the northwestern townships.

There is no doubt that many people who watch provincial TV stations will know the words "Zhetong Electric Power Group" and will pay attention to it.

"Tsk tsk, your company is really amazing. Mr. Nong went to inspect it and said some good things about it."

Upon hearing this, Yu Hongbo raised his eyebrows proudly.

"Of course not. Our Zhetong Electric Power Group is the best company in the world. There is nothing wrong with that. I think Mr. Nong's praise is absolutely true. I even have to praise him a little more."

"Okay, okay, I know you guys are awesome, stop watching TV, the food is getting cold~"

……

The next morning, Yu Hongbo left home and took a bus to the suburbs. The journey was quite far.

After changing buses for more than an hour, Yu Hongbo arrived at the group's factory in Jincheng.

Taking another look today, Yu Hongbo feels that the progress has accelerated a lot, and some facilities can be seen to be completing the roof.

We walked through the construction site and arrived at the parking lot. Although it was temporary, the open space was still large. Most of the power supply vehicles of Zhetong Power in the northwest region were parked neatly here.

They have also received a new task, and the group's second batch of power supply list in the northwest region has been released.

Yu Hongbo naturally also received the task. Last time he led a team to be responsible for the power supply in Huaixi County. This time the place he was going to was not far away. It was right next to Huaixi County. There were a total of seven towns under the jurisdiction of Lindong County.

There are seven towns in total, and Yu Hongbo has almost enough manpower.

In addition to the nine power teams under its own jurisdiction, the group also dispatched three more power teams, totaling twelve power operation teams and sixty staff members, in addition to a mobile power supply vehicle from the emergency power supply department.

This configuration is similar to the last one.

After confirming the basic matters, Yu Hongbo and his men set off.

However, before setting off, they first went to a nearby gas station, which had cooperation with the group. They did not need to do anything to refuel, they just needed to keep records, and the group would then settle the bill.

According to the above statement, the group may also build a special "gas station" in the Jincheng factory area, but it will be exclusively for the use of factory vehicles.

Because the Northwest region is vast, the rate of car usage is higher than in other places.

To put it bluntly, Yu Hongbo and his team had to travel a long distance on a mission, so they had to refuel frequently. Under such circumstances, the group would naturally consider the issue of refueling for them. Setting up a "gas station" in the group's factory area would be convenient for Yu Hongbo and other staff members, as they would not have to wait in long queues.

On the other hand, it is also a sign of the group's perfection.

After refueling, Yu Hongbo led the team to Lindong County.

……

From Jincheng to Lindong, Yu Hongbo and his team started on the highway at 9:30 in the morning and it took them almost four hours to reach Huaixi County.

After arriving in Huaixi, it will take about half an hour to an hour to reach Lindong.

Since they had to pass by there anyway, Yu Hongbo arranged for his brothers to get off the highway directly when they arrived in Huaixi, and have a bite to eat and rest nearby. In addition, Yu Hongbo also wanted to take a look at the "power supply station".

As the first small county to have its electricity supplied by him, Yu Hongbo was quite concerned about it.

The "power supply station" had been set up before he left, and formal work began shortly after he left, including two old masters who had previously worked under Chen Yusheng at the local power plant.

I also went to Jincheng for training under the arrangement of the group, and then successfully passed the electrician certificate.

The information Yu Hongbo has received so far is that the two masters are already working at the "Zhetong Power Supply Station" in Huaixi County.

Including the two masters, there are a total of seven employees at the Zhetong Power Supply Station in Huai County. The two of them are responsible for daily maintenance and follow-up maintenance for some surrounding residents.

The remaining five people are an electrical team, or rather two electrical teams, because there are two vehicles in the power supply station. They will go to work when there is a problem that needs to be repaired in the town below.

Although it is a power supply station, they are also established within the group. In addition, their salaries are not as high as those of Yu Hongbo and others, but the configurations of their cars are the same. Zhetong Power is equipped with Buick Falcon pickup trucks as standard.

……

After getting off the highway, Yu Hongbo first took so many people to the beef noodle restaurant where they had eaten on the first day they arrived in Huaixi County. The beef noodles here are good, so he had to have a bowl if he passed by.

Because there were so many people, the noodles had to be eaten bowl by bowl, so Yu Hongbo ate first. After eating, he asked his brothers to take a rest, and he went to the power supply station to take a look.

Unlike when they first arrived, the house that the group initially bought was in an abandoned state.

But now when you drive over there, it has a completely new look, and there is a sign at the entrance with the words "Zhetong Power Huaixi County Power Supply Station" written on it.

The business hall is right after you open the door. Although it is not big, it is similar to the telecommunications business hall in an ordinary small town, but it has everything you need and there are staff members inside to receive you.

"Hello~"

Just after saying hello, the salesperson inside also saw the Zhetong Electric Worker's uniform that Yu Hongbo was wearing.

"you are?"

"I'm also from Zhetong Electric Power. I just stopped by to take a look."

"Oh, would you like some water? There's hot water here."

After casually saying hello, Yu Hongbo also went to the back, which was the power supply station of Zhetong Electric Power, which was also where the Volt Ants worked.

As soon as he entered, Yu Hongbo saw the faces of old acquaintances, the two masters who had worked under Chen Yusheng.

They were also very happy to see Yu Hongbo. After all, it was Yu Hongbo who contacted them first. Now Yu Hongbo came to them again and greeted them warmly.

Yu Hongbo also asked about the job.

"What else can I say? Working at Zhetong Power is definitely the best. Although Boss Chen treated us well before, the power plant didn't make much money. The monthly salary was only 1,800 yuan. When things were better, it was just over 2,000 yuan at most. Now, the basic salary for the two of us is 3,000 yuan a month."

"Yes, and we calculated that we didn't even have social security before, but now the group pays for all of us, as well as five insurances and one fund. This month, we have at least 4,000 yuan."

This is absolutely true, their wages are indeed at this level now.

Although it's not as high as Yu Hongbo and others, four thousand yuan a month is more than enough to live on in Huaixi County, which is much better than before.

The two masters also said that in the past they had to buy everything they needed for work, including masks and gloves.

But at Zhetong Electric Power, all work-related items are distributed by the group, including various labor protection supplies, so you don't have to pay a penny yourself.

The two brothers were very happy about this, especially because the gloves distributed by the group were of much better quality than the white gloves that cost a few dollars each outside.

"Hey, Team Leader Yu, you've done a great thing for my brother and me."

"That's right, if you hadn't reported it to the group, we wouldn't have the life we ​​have now. I'm making more money and have a 'job position', so I can speak more confidently in front of my wife when I go home ~ haha"

……

Yu Hongbo was very happy to hear the two masters praising the group and themselves.

Then he looked at the power supply box in the power station with them and confirmed the working status of the "volt ants" inside. After confirming that there was no problem, Yu Hongbo said goodbye to them.

This time I came here to take a look and also to meet these two masters.

Now that we have seen and seen everything, it is about time to set off and continue to Lindong County.

Lindong is right next to Huaixi County, but it is much better than Huaixi. Huaixi has a total population of less than 30,000, but Lindong County has a total population of over 100,000. This is the size of a normal "small county town".

There are quite a few towns under its jurisdiction, a total of seven towns waiting for Yu Hongbo and his team to complete the power supply one by one.

After coming out of the power supply station, Yu Hongbo returned to the beef noodle shop. Everyone in the shop was full, so they got in the car with a greeting and continued to head towards Lindong County.

……

On the other hand, the officials of Lindong County knew about this matter a long time ago and were aware that the names of seven townships under their county were included in the second batch of power supply list of Zhetong Power.

They knew clearly that this was Zhetong Electric Power doing good things for their local area, so they made some preparations in advance to welcome and entertain the staff of Zhetong Electric Power.

Just at the highway exit of their Lindong County, several key leaders of the county government also appeared there, and they had prepared a lot of gift boxes, all of which were local specialties of Lindong.

After a long wait, Yu Hongbo and his convoy finally arrived at the exit.
