Chapter 200: Too Few Talents
After Ross, Band and others arrived in Jiangdu County, they only took a day off and started to do related work.
Although the bandits in Jiangdu County have been wiped out by Lin Hongfei, for the sake of safety, he still sent two companies to protect the safety of the four people.
Midway through, Lin Hongfei would discuss with these four people about building factories, mining, and docks from time to time.
Coupled with other work in the county government office, Lin Hongfei basically has no rest time.
At this time, Lin Hongfei realized that there were not many people available on hand.
There is no need to worry too much about the military. Wu Yongquan, Guo Lang and others are enough to manage the independent regiment well.
Moreover, after the conscription work in Jiangdu County was over, Lin Hongfei found an opportunity to take out all the weapons he had signed in over the years and put them in a warehouse, and handed them over to Chu Liangyi, the Military Control Department of the Independent Corps.
As for the Military Law Department and the Engineer Company under Huo Yunshan, they also did a good job.
But Lin Hongfei is now very short of talents in internal affairs.
Originally, there were many officials and officials in the internal affairs system of Jiangdu County.
But the work ability of these people cannot be said to be useless, it can only be said to be both angry with man and god.
Not only that, most people also have the bad habit of eating, drinking, gambling, and having a lot of troubles in Jiangdu County.
To ask these people to help themselves deal with their internal affairs is simply asking for trouble.
Therefore, after some screening, Lin Hongfei left only a small number of grassroots officials.
Lin Hongfei was not expelled from the rest, and directly deprived them of power, reduced their salaries, arranged them in some Qingshui yamen, forcing them to take the initiative to roll the bed and get out of bed.
Anyway, Lin Hongfei didn't say that they were fired, they wanted to leave!
Be reasonable and justified!
As for selecting a group of internal affairs personnel from Jiangdu County, Lin Hongfei thought about it but gave up the idea.
As an outsider, he did not intend to reuse some local people too early, so as not to eventually form a local force.
After thinking about it, Lin Hongfei planned to write a letter to his old relationships, asking them to help find them and recommending a few people to come.
Writing a letter can actually be done by the clerks and staff.
But Lin Hongfei felt that he was asking for help or writing letters himself, which seemed more sincere.
So, for three or four days in a row, Lin Hongfei wrote several letters to Qian Minghe, Chen Fengchang, Xu Chengping, Chen Shouting, Li Jinlong and others, and then sent someone to deliver them as quickly as possible.
As for whether to find a few geniuses, Lin Hongfei did not have much hope. After all, Jiangdu County is a small county town, which geniuses can look up here.
Therefore, Lin Hongfei was very satisfied with being sent to some people who had been to middle school and had some basic qualities.
After all, nowadays, being able to recognize words is already considered a top student.
That's enough, what other bicycle do you need!
After the letter was sent, Lin Hongfei patiently waited for the reply. During this period, Ross, Band and others' inspections in Jiangdu County reached the end.
First of all, Ross and Band, these two people basically ate and lived in the coal mine for some time. Sometimes Lin Hongfei went to visit them and happened to meet them just after they came down from the mine. They were as dark as Africans.
Chris, who was responsible for the printing and dyeing factory, the site selection and construction of the textile factory, also roughly determined the plan.
Pheles, who had been inspecting Jiangdu Way for many days, also wrote his ideas into a document and handed them over to Lin Hongfei.
Faced with these three reports, Lin Hongfei was still very cautious. It took him four or five days to discuss with these four people for a long time before he decided on the final plan.
In addition to the dock's rectification plan, the two reports on coal mine renovation and factory construction were taken back to Qingcheng.
Lin Hongfei told Wayne very seriously:
"After returning to Qingcheng, you will immediately purchase all equipment, raw materials, accessories, etc. as soon as possible according to the requirements of the report, and then hurry up and send it to Jiangdu."
"The construction team must also be fully equipped as soon as possible, especially for engineers and special jobs. You must choose experienced ones. As for ordinary laborers, I can recruit them in the county."
“Before the end of the factory and coal mine renovation project, you must recruit enough technical workers and managers.”
"If they think Jiangdu County is too far away and don't want to come, then give them a salary. I don't believe that no one will come!"
"Don't be afraid of spending money. As long as our factory is built and the coal mine is renovated well, you can earn all the original costs!"
Wayne knew very well that this matter was related to whether Lin Hongfei could gain a foothold in Jiangdu County in the future and spread his power tentacles to the surrounding areas.
As Lin Hongfei's partner, Wayne knew very well that the greater the power Lin Hongfei was, the more profit he could make.
"Don't worry, mr. Lin, I promise you that all projects will be completed smoothly before the second half of next year!" Wayne said confidently.
"I hope so!" Lin Hongfei said slowly.
······
Songshan County is located in the north of Jiangdu County.
Unlike Jiangdu County, which is relatively wealthy, Songshan County is much poorer, and even its county is half as big as Jiangdu County.
In such a poor place, there is naturally no amount of money to make. In addition, poor mountains and bad waters are unlucky, so being an official here is simply asking for trouble.
Therefore, six years ago, after the last county magistrate left, Songshan County has been in a vacuum without government management.
If you don’t take the power thing, you will naturally pick it up.
Five years ago, Hong Tianwu, the largest opium dealer in the area, gathered a group of gunmen and knife hands under his command, and also carried a large number of young and middle-aged men in Songshan County to form the so-called Songshan County Self-Defense Security Army. Hong Tianwu claimed to be the commander.
Relying on the self-defense security army, Hong Tianwu became the de facto master of Songshan County and the local emperor.
However, Hong Tianwu is also a sensible person. No matter how prestigious he is in Songshan County, the upper limit is just like this. In such a poor place, he really has no future.
Therefore, Hong Tianwu has long set his sights on this piece of fat meat in Jiangdu County.
However, the Ren family militia under Ren Anfu was not easy to mess with. Hong Tianwu sent people to test it several times, but was beaten back by Ren Anfu, so Hong Tianwu had to give up.
But he did not give up on this idea. Since he could not defeat Jiangdu County by himself, he would find a few allies and defeat Jiangdu County together.
There are not many people who have the same idea as Hong Tianwu. Several large groups of bandits, militia groups, private armed forces around Jiangdu County are all jealous of the fat piece of Jiangdu Way.
Therefore, Hong Tianwu's connection really made him pull up a team of more than 10,000 people.
However, although there are many people and seem to be quite large in scale, only one-third of the people who actually hold guns.
