Chapter 322 Mining Development

For Yu Wanling, today's job is not only able to continue to be active at the top of the political level, but also has a realistic need to maintain life.

Leaving those boring people, Yu Wanling looked at it for a while, and then saw Fang Ruolian in front of her saying something to several women. She just walked over gently. When she was about to arrive, she took a deep breath and then squeezed out a faint smile and stepped forward: "Madam!"

Fang Ruolian turned her head and saw that Fang Ruolian came and stretched out her hand to pull her: "You can come here. We were just talking about forming a song and dance troupe. Wanling, you have learned to dance. Come and tell us whether it's better to choreography or modern dance!"

While listening, Fang Ruolian looked at the women's wives of these officials. These women are relatively young, and several of them Fang Ruolian also know them. One is the wife of Major General Shi Yanglin, the director of the Operations Department, the other is the wife of Lu Weixiang, the chief of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, and the other is the eldest daughter of Zhao E, the chief of Industry and Commerce.

Throughout the many military and political dignitaries present and the women they brought, they are actually relatively young, mainly because the Soviet military and political dignitaries present today are relatively young.

As a sub-faction of the Beiyang system, the military and political dignitaries, like the officials in the whole Beiyang system, are actually very young. Not only Zhao Dongyun himself is less than 30 years old, but most of the other military and political dignitaries are also concentrated between the ages of 30 and 40, with relatively few people in their 40 years old.

The military is fine. Some senior generals are relatively old. Many of them are over 40 years old, but the senior officials in the civil service system are younger.

When it comes to military and civil officials, it is generally easier for military people to feel young, but in today's Soviet system, in fact, the military class is a group of older people. Generally, senior generals are over 40 years old, and even school officials are mostly 30 or 40 years old.

However, in the civilian system, those grassroots officials who followed the pre-Qing Dynasty are older, but senior officials, especially those in the cabinet, are younger than the other.

For example, although this person is older than Zhao Dongyun, he is only 37 years old this year. Wang Zhixin, the chief of the police department, is 39 years old, Xiang Rui, the deputy director of the Ministry of Industry and Commerce, is only 35 years old, Chen Zhenxian, the chief of the Ministry of Agriculture and Forestry, is 31 years old, and Shi Zhaoji, the chief of the Ministry of Communications, is only 30 years old.

You can tell from the age of these people that the senior officials of the contemporary Soviet civil servants are young people, and few of those old officials in their 60s and 70s, and there are quite a large number of senior officials who have studied abroad. Two of the people mentioned above are international students. For example, Chen Zhen first came from studying in the United States. Rui came from Japan.

These officials themselves are young, and their wives are naturally not old women, so these senior ladies seen today are still mainly young ladies.

Although these young ladies said that their status is different from the past, to be honest, they are much more confused than those diplomatic ladies. Yu Wanling continued to smile and then said, "This ballet has the benefits of ballet, and modern dance has the benefits of modern dance. The year before last, I arranged several dance dramas with my sister. If everyone is interested, I'll call my sister to come with me and rehearse first!"

While Yu Wanling was talking, theyu guang in the corner of her eyes also happened to see Zhao Dongyun gathering with several cabinet officials not far away, muttering in her heart that she didn't know what else they would say? I don't think you will talk about parenting, singing and dancing dramas like these people!

When Yu Wanling and Fang Ruolian talked about how to choreograph the dance troupe, Zhao Dongyun on the other side also got together with Zhao E, Fang Biyong, Chen Zhenxian and Yang Debiao, which made several big men get together to discuss. Naturally, they are in this position, even if they are chatting. That's also a military event.

"Dushi, I heard that your Ministry of Agriculture and Forestry has made a big move recently. It is not easy to immigrate millions of people from Shandong and Henan to the northeast to reclamate fields!" When Zhao E spoke, his tone was a little relaxed. Today's occasion did not need to be so serious, so even if Zhao Dongyun was in front of him, Zhao E said a little relaxed.

When Chen Zhen first heard Zhao E's words, he immediately smiled: "This difficulty is naturally not small, but also thanks to the cooperation of the local governments in the three eastern provinces. Many government and counties there have been wanting to migrate from the customs for the past two years, and they have also made a lot of effort!"

Although the three eastern provinces are rich in various resources, especially land resources, it has always been difficult to develop due to the limited population. At the same time, Shandong, Henan and other mainland provinces have more people and less land. Many farmers dream of owning of owning their own land, which is exactly why the Ministry of Agriculture and Forestry has been committed to immigration in the three eastern provinces. The reason for the reclamation.

Since the Feng army controlled these provinces, the government behind the army has been eager to carry out large-scale immigration recruitment and recruited a large number of landless farmers to the three provinces in Guannei to open up wasteland. This kind of large-scale organization of immigration is naturally difficult to rely on the Ministry of Agriculture and Forestry alone, and also needs to The active cooperation of the prefecture.

Although today is a private occasion, Zhao Dongyun still said, "The recent work of the Ministry of Agriculture and Forestry is still worthy of recognition. The land reclamation has done well, but the provinces in the customs have just gone through the war, and the Ministry of Agriculture and Forestry should also vigorously do a good job to ensure the smooth progress of the autumn harvest!"

Chen Zhenxian said, "As the Ministry knows, in September, we have sent several working groups to the provinces to guide local governments and counties to help farmers with the autumn harvest!"

Contemporary China is still a veritable agricultural country. Agriculture can be said to be the foundation of the country. This autumn harvest is not only related to the livelihood of farmers in the coming year, but also to the collection of national agricultural tax. After the autumn harvest, a new round of autumn agricultural tax collection will have to be carried out at the same time, and these agricultural taxes will be able to greatly alleviate the current financial difficulties.

However, today is a private occasion, and it is not suitable to continue to talk about these issues in depth, so Zhao Dongyun just asked a few questions casually, and then turned the topic to other aspects. However, even if Zhao Dongyun restrained, the topic still inevitably continues to talk about many matters of work. Zhao E Even if others look relaxed, in fact, their words are carefully considered.

When Zhao Dongyun left and went to talk to other people, these people relaxed coincidentally, and the look on their faces looked much more natural.

Zhao E said, "Brother Duoshi, your immigration work and autumn harvest work are progressing steadily, unlike me!"

However, Yang Debiao laughed and said, "Look at what Brother Zhao said, others don't know. Don't I know that the development plan for the Chahar iron mine you submitted before has been greatly appreciated by the president. It has just been approved!"

Zhao Ehe said, "Although this iron ore development plan has been approved, the specific development is not small. Secretary Yang, as you know, we are financially tight now. I'm afraid it is impossible to develop by relying on official stocks, and it is not difficult to attract investment and develop!"

"What's so difficult about this? I heard that Tangshan Iron and Steel Company is not interested?" Although Yang Debiao is not a member of the cabinet, he is the first secretary of the secretariat in the presidential palace. His political status in the Soviet civil service system is no less than that of these internal ministers, so he has contacted a lot of affairs. He is not only involved in the Ministry of Agriculture and Forestry, but also in the affairs of the Ministry of Industry and Commerce.

In fact, the Chahar iron ore development plan submitted by Zhao E's Ministry of Industry and Commerce is still the approval drafted by him himself!

"Don't mention the Tangshan Iron and Steel Company. Although they also submitted a tender, the promised investment amount is only 300,000 yuan. This 300,000 yuan is just a drop in the bucket for the development of iron mines!"

Yang Debiao wondered, "This Tangshan Iron Mine is no longer short of money. How can it be used for investment?"

Tangshan Iron and Steel Company, whose predecessor is the affiliated steel factory of Fuyuan Machinery Factory. However, with the increasing scale of Fuyuan Machinery Factory, it also needs to focus on the military industry, so many affiliated manufacturers have been independent before, and this affiliated steel factory has become Tangshan Iron and Steel Company independently.

Relying on Tangshan's coal and iron resources, coupled with the capital and technical resources behind Fuyuan Machinery Factory, the steel production soon rose, and its steel output rose steadily. In addition to a small amount of steel production used to meet the steel needs of military enterprises such as Fuyuan Machinery Factory, the large part still relies on the private steel market, especially construction For the steel required for railway and large-scale infrastructure projects, the factory previously contracted a large number of construction steel required by Huludao Industrial Zone and Yingkou Industrial Zone. At the same time, it also contracted the rail orders required by Huludao Linear Railway, Yingkou Linear Railway, Fushun Branch Railway, Beijing-Zhang Railway and even the previous Beijing-Han Railway.

Although the construction projects such as Jinpu Railway and Longhai Railway planned by the Ministry of Communications need to introduce foreign capital, they are also prepared to use domestic rails in the contract.

The large private demand for steel has made Tangshan Iron and Steel Company live very well and makes a lot of profits every year. It is impossible for such a company with huge assets and rich profits to invest in iron or mining development, but one or two million is still not a big problem. Now there are only these 300,000, which is obviously not right. Often.

Zhao E said, "Don't mention it, Tangshan Iron and Steel Company has a big appetite. They not only bid for the development plan of Chahar Iron Mine, but also bid for the development of Anshan Iron Mine. This move is a huge amount of two million yuan, and there is still money to invest in the iron mine on Chahar side!"

"Well, it seems that their appetite is really big, but the development plan of Anshan Iron Mine is huge, and it is difficult for their family to eat alone, right?" Yang Debiao frowned and said, "Aren't you afraid that the capital chain will be broken?"

Zhao E said: "The scale of the iron ore found in Anshan is huge, and their family will definitely not be swallowed if it is fully developed, but now it is only the first phase of the development. We have also tendered for the development rights of a few mining areas, and I heard that they are contacting several foreign companies to raise funds!"

"This mining business is related to national interests. I'm afraid this joint venture with foreign investment will be more troublesome in the future!" Yang Debiao sighed after hearing this. Chinese people in this era are extremely wary of attracting foreign capital investment, and if they are not careful, they will be scolded as traitors.
