Siheyuan: Since 51

A few minutes later, Bai Sha began to report on her work.

"Two years ago, Siping developed a large self-propelled combine harvester. After expanding production, each county and district has now formed an autumn harvest team to assist farmers at a low price, greatly improving efficiency. The Industry Bureau has sent news that it is ready to earn foreign exchange and can export at any time."

Lin Zhiyuan frowned slightly, was speechless, and asked three questions in a row.

"Export? What export? What does earning foreign exchange have to do with them?"

After asking, he snorted coldly in a blunt tone.

"Tell them to continue to go down to the 50,000-plus communes, set up commune teams, and ensure at least three to five harvesters. We'll tell you when we're done."

Bai Sha was startled and reminded softly.

"There are more than a thousand counties and districts. If we calculate based on the three-machine system, there are only a few thousand vehicles. If we move it down to the commune, there will be hundreds of thousands, or even 200,000 or 300,000 vehicles. Isn't that a bit too much? Not only will the demand for oil increase, but farmers will have more free time and will be more likely to cause trouble if they have nothing to do..."

Without waiting for him to finish, Lin Zhiyuan raised his hand to stop him and asked in a deep voice.

"Who told you to start a quarrel? What kind of bullshit logic is that?"

After saying that, he paused and began to add.

"I don't deny that there are such people, but going out to do odd jobs and small businesses is in line with the simple nature of most ordinary people. In addition, hundreds of thousands of vehicles are enough to keep them busy for several years. With the improvement of oil technology, supply will definitely not be a problem."

Bai Sha didn't say anything else. She quickly wrote down the words, turned the page, and continued.

"With the implementation of the large power grid and small power station model, more than half of the rural areas have been covered by electricity. In particular, with the 52-year plan to implement the telegraph to villages plan, it is expected to be fully completed in another five years."

Lin Zhiyuan tapped the table with his fingertips, sighing.

"I didn't expect that it would be so difficult to provide electricity to everyone. How did each village solve the problem of having radios and loudspeakers before?"

Baisha is very careful in her work and basically sorts out all the relevant information about the reported problems.

"Wooden piles and aluminum wires have insufficient transmission capacity and limited power generation, so they can barely meet the needs. However, over time, there are safety risks."

"As expected, more haste makes waste."

Lin Zhiyuan sighed, pondered for a long time, and gave the order.

"Contact the security department and request assistance from the engineering corps. Also, we need to work harder on constructing the power grid and power stations. First, consider whether they exist, then whether they are good."

"With the help of engineers, it should be possible. Electric wires, poles, and even coal supplies..."

Bai Sha paused here and changed the subject.

"Cement plants can solve the problem of electric poles. With breakthroughs in electrolytic aluminum and copper smelting technology, electric wires will not be a problem. In this way, coal consumption will increase significantly. According to estimates, there will be a significant supply gap."

Lin Zhiyuan lit a cigarette, took a few deep puffs, and thought hard for a long time, but still could not come up with a solution.

Suddenly, he caught sight of the teacup on the table, and an idea suddenly occurred to him. He asked, "Where is the hydropower station technology?"

Baisha opened her mouth and spoke.

"The Xin'anjiang hydropower station has already been put into operation, and there are more than a dozen more under construction. They may not be completed in the short term."

Thinking back to his previous life, when the Three Gorges came out and shocked the whole village, Lin Zhiyuan was full of confidence even though he didn't know much about it.

"Vigorously build hydroelectric power stations. Provide money and manpower. You go and coordinate. Also, remember that Pepsi has been implemented. See if Xiao Zhong can spare the energy and funds to ensure the supply of coal and minerals during the period. Summarize the overall situation into a document and report to the office."

As he spoke, he remembered something and added.

"Oh, right? Windmills have been used to generate electricity for a long time. Let them study it. And what about solar power generation? The technologies should be interchangeable. If there are any difficulties, we can help solve them. If it really doesn't work, let Xiao Zhong find the information and introduce the equipment."

……

In the entire Special Economic Bureau, hundreds of people only serve Lin Zhiyuan.

Internally, special teams have been set up for each industry and department.

Externally, several large companies or certain regions also have independent teams.

Clear division of labor and mutual cooperation.

Bai Sha assigned the tasks, and after just two hours, all the measures on punishing corrupt officials had been summarized.

Appeared on the desk around noon.

Lin Zhiyuan ate while looking up information and writing and drawing with a pen and paper.

Very pretty, not very harmful, but extremely insulting.

In addition to double fines, imprisonment, and volunteer work, they are required to make long-term public confession in college or even in the community, which can be understood as being paraded through the streets.

Jiaobenji does not even have an anti-corruption department and relies entirely on public supervision.

The prerequisite is that officials disclose their assets. If someone reports it, the Property Department will check it and any unidentified assets will be considered as corruption.

All property was confiscated, the couple were imprisoned, and their descendants for five generations were not allowed to engage in politics or business, which was a bit like collective punishment.

Unexpectedly, the Russian bear is the most tolerant.

In Ning's era, corruption was considered to be a problem of property distribution and education was the main issue.

During this era, a system of cadre privileges was established, with high salaries and high benefits, and so-called corruption became one of the privileges.

During the Hegemony era, although the old privilege system was abolished, there were no effective measures.

As for Xiao Bo, let’s not mention him.

……

After combining several measures, deleting and revising them, and considering them for a long time, the outline of the report, including the importance of anti-corruption and punishment measures, was released.

Among them, anti-corruption and promoting integrity are old-fashioned issues and need no further explanation.

The punishment measures are somewhat novel.

The disclosure of assets is debatable. In today’s pursuit of equality, widespread publicity will only add to the unrest.

However, reporting and registering to the organization is entirely feasible.

Unidentified property is considered corruption, and one must make a confession report. Five generations of descendants and three generations of relatives are not allowed to engage in politics or business, which is much stricter than in previous lives.

Lin Zhiyuan finally finished writing. When he looked up, he saw Bai Sha looking anxious. He asked with a smile, "Sha Sha, what's wrong?"

Baisha frowned and said anxiously, "Leader, in another twenty minutes, it will be time to meet with Representative Finn."

Hearing this, Lin Zhiyuan picked up a few pieces of paper, gathered them together, straightened them out, and handed them over.

"Fortunately, there is still time. Please arrange it and finish it as soon as possible and show it to me."

As he spoke, he stood up and smiled.

"Clean up the office. I'm going to the bathroom."

……

At half past two, Finn arrived on time.

He is dressed in a suit, smiling, walking slowly and gracefully. Among the many family representatives I know, he is the most stable and the one who is best at hiding his emotions.

Lin Zhiyuan stretched out his right hand and greeted him with a smile.

"Mr. Finn, I haven't seen you for a long time. How are you doing?"

The two shook hands and Finn smiled slightly.

"Fortunately, it's relatively free. Since we are controlled by the Russian bear, there is not much to deal with."

Sit down, make tea, smoke cigarettes, the old routine.

After a brief reminiscence, considering that Finn was a shrewd man with strong principles in doing things, Lin Zhiyuan did not beat around the bush and asked curiously.

"Our previous cooperation went smoothly. I heard that the light industrial products not only met the needs of East Hans, but were also sold to surrounding neighbors. I wonder what brought you here this time?"
