Wang Zhihong looked at the safety helmet beside the young man and couldn't help but frown. Of course, she knew about safety helmets.
In this era, very few construction teams in the country would distribute safety helmets to their workers. Even Zhang Zhizhi's construction team did not have one.
Wang Zhihong knew about this stuff because he had seen the construction team of the real estate tycoon Sassoon in Shanghai before.
"Just now, you said that foreign merchants have to register. If they don't register, they will be fined. Even the price of the goods they sell is required.”
Wang Zhihong didn't ask about the safety helmet. Instead, he asked about business. He felt that this rule was not very good. Wasn't it preventing other businessmen from entering Lu 'an? This would affect economic development!
The young man didn't care why Wang Zhihong asked. Instead, he said directly,""I've heard about this from others. Those foreign merchants came in and disrupted the market price in various ways.
There are even merchants who see that the prices here are low and maliciously raise the prices. There are even foreign merchants who join forces to suppress our local merchants, causing the price fluctuations in the market to be very large and disrupting the market.
In a fit of anger, our county lord introduced the Market Goods Management Law and the Industrial and Commercial Punishment Law, which stipulated that the price fluctuations of the goods in the market must be within a certain range.
If you want to do some promotional activities, lower the price or if there is a shortage of certain goods, you can raise the price! However, there was a percentage fluctuation range for both price reduction and price increase.
If you exceed this fluctuation range, you will be fined. They said that the purpose of doing this is to stabilize the market. However, the prices of our goods in Lu 'an are indeed stable now, unlike in the past where they would double the price from time to time.”
Wang Zhihong nodded his head as he listened. Thinking about the capital compradors in the Jiangnan area, weren't they like this?
In the year of the great disaster, the price of grain was raised to the sky. They did not care about the lives of the common people and only wanted to make money.
Just as Wang Zhihong was thinking about this, the sound of an engine came. Lin Xin, who was sitting beside him, opened his mouth wide and said,"Brother Wang, look! What kind of machine monster is that!"
Wang Zhihong looked up and saw an excavator walking in front, followed by a shovel and a few tall trucks.
"Excavator and shovel? Where did you get this?"
Wang Zhihong's eyes widened when he saw this scene. In this era, there were very few excavators and shovels in the country.
The domestic construction team did not have any construction machinery such as excavators and shovels. Only the foreign construction team had a few machines.
For example, the richest man in Shanghai, real estate tycoon Sassoon, only his construction team had an excavator and a shovel. This was something he had accidentally seen when he went to Shanghai previously.
Other than that, he didn't see any other construction teams, but he didn't expect to see this thing in a small county like Lu 'an.
In the current era, the labor price in the country was relatively low. The price of an excavator and a shovel was high, so the construction team would not spend money to buy these equipment.
"Big brother, make way. The people from the muck team are here.”
The young man's words pulled Wang Zhihong back from his shock. He hurriedly waited for Lin Xin to move aside.
Then, he saw the shovel pushing the soil together, and the excavator loaded the soil into the truck.
In less than ten minutes, a truck was filled. This efficiency was much faster than manual labor. If it was manual labor, three or four workers would need to fill it up. No matter how fast it was, it would take at least half an hour.
The young man waved at Wang Zhihong and said,""Big brother, come over! I'll talk to the driver. We're all from the same village. He can take you out!”
As he spoke, the young man walked to the driver's seat of the truck. After saying a few words to the young man in the driver's seat, the young man asked Wang Zhihong and the others to get on the truck.
Wang Zhihong sat in the front passenger seat, and Lin Xin could only climb to the roof of the car pitifully.
The truck started and drove out of the city.
"Little brother, where did you get your forks and trucks? Your place is so advanced! Forklift and truck were used."
Wang Zhihong started asking the driver after getting into the car. He was curious about everything in Lu 'an.
The driver was a young man in his twenties. He smiled and said,"My truck was manufactured by Red Star Trucks. As for the shovel, I don't know much about it.”
The driver glanced at Wang Zhihong and smiled."You look like you're from somewhere else, right? What are you doing in Lu 'an?"
Wang Zhihong's mouth twitched. Good heavens, everyone knew that he was from another city!
"Haha! I'm here to do business. This is my first time here. I'm here to see the market. That little brother told me everything just now.”
As Wang Zhihong spoke, his face revealed an interested expression."By the way, there's something I'm a little curious about. I heard that there's a big factory in Lu 'an. Where is this big factory located? I'm a little curious and want to take a look. Maybe I can wholesale some goods from this factory and sell them back.”
The driver smiled as he drove.""Are you talking about the Red Star Industrial Park? The Red Star Industrial Park was under the Daling Mountain Range in the west, beside the Xipi River. That industrial park was the boss. It was said that it occupied more than 100,000 mu of land. It was very complicated inside. If no one led the way, you might get lost.
This was still not enough. Red Star Construction Company was still expanding their factory. I heard that apart from the Xi Pi River, there is also a light industrial park being built beside the Pi River in the north. Many factories have already started production. Look at the work clothes I'm wearing. They are produced by the bedding factory there. And these boots on my feet are produced by the leather factory there!”
"A hundred thousand mu? There's also a light industrial park?"
Wang Zhihong's shocked voice immediately escaped his mouth. Wang Zhihong couldn't believe it. What kind of concept was this?
As far as he knew, even the Hanyang Munitions Factory occupied an area of 900 acres. This was already one of the three largest military factories in the country.
But how many acres did this Red Star Industrial Park occupy? More than 100,000 mu? Still expanding?
"What kind of ability does Han Bin have? How could he build such a huge industrial park? Where did he get so many machines and equipment?”
Wang Zhihong thought in shock. He really couldn't believe his ears.
Then, Wang Zhihong came to his senses. He turned to the driver and asked,"Little brother, you seem to be very familiar with this industrial park? You can go in as you please?"
The chauffeur tossed a cigarette to Wang Zhihong and lit one himself.""Go in casually? What are you thinking? The security at the industrial park was very tight. There were security forces patrolling outside. Without a work permit, it was impossible for you to even get close.
Previously, I went in because Red Star Construction Company was recruiting drivers. After I went, they gave me a temporary pass. I learned how to drive in the car factory's parking lot. Otherwise, how could I go in?"
