The current VIPs who came to watch the ceremony symbolically dug a few shovels on the foundation where the lines were drawn, and the Kunshan County embankment construction project officially began.

As a result, when assigning tasks, the guests opened their eyes.

I saw that after receiving today's mission, the gentry who served as section chiefs neither had to complete the team nor issued orders on the spot. They only had to take their own section flags and head in different directions.

And those Kunshan people who looked messy actually followed the Duanqi of each section and walked away in a blink of an eye!

This subverted the guests' perception. They originally thought that without whips and sticks, they would not want those mob men to obey the command.

It is simply unimaginable that a flag like this can make the people follow along in an orderly manner.

Those are forty or fifty flags!

How did it do it?

The answer is to combine the traditional Lijia system with the segmented and lump-in-one responsibility system four hundred years later, thus creating the effect of one plus one being greater than two.

In the previous month, Zhao Hao asked Zhao Shouzheng to divide the 62-mile-long river embankment into four districts and forty-eight sections. Each section has a section chief, and each section chief leads ten to twelve village chiefs.

There were ten A-ranks below each village chief, who assisted him in commanding one hundred and ten civilians.

In this way, we will take the lead in tidying up, clarify the responsibilities, and everyone knows who they are responsible to; each person commands up to ten people, which can avoid shirking, chaos and waste to the greatest extent.

After a month of running-in, Zhao Shouzheng's quasi-military management system can basically be achieved like a finger.

The command center only needs to assign different tasks to each section chief one day in advance, and the next day the husbands will know what they should do.

This not only greatly improves labor efficiency, but also the command center can take time to focus on the control of project quality rather than spending it on coordination and command.

But even if the guests copy it back, the effect will be greatly reduced or even useless.

Because any organizational form is just an objective flesh and blood body, if you want it to obey commands without fail, or even exert subjective initiative, you must inject soul into it.

From Zhao Shouzheng living on the dike, leading the way to fighting floods and surviving, to making every effort to ensure the lives of the victims and not starving to death... Everything is to make the people of Kunshan feel that the master of Xinlai County really cares about them and is really willing to give everything for Kunshan.

Only by establishing such recognition can the people regard the wishes of those in power as their own, and be willing to obey you, support you, act according to your orders, and actively move towards the goals you set.

The so-called "those who are in the same boat with storms and storms prosper, and those who are in the same desires as the top and bottom win." This is true.

How many people can do this today?

~~

When cement concrete appeared and the embankment was no longer a luxury, the enthusiasm of the people was instantly detonated, and the civilians began to dig the foundation, sifting river sand, pulling stones, and the entire embankment was in full swing.

The guests can finally visit the wall.

Even the shareholders of Jiangnan Company only learned about the existence of cement and concrete yesterday. At the company's first board meeting, they passed the resolution to open a wholly-owned subsidiary, "Jiangnan Building Materials Company", and appointed Hua Bozhen as chairman and general manager.

So the shareholders also saw the concrete with their own eyes for the first time.

They knocked the hammer and finally realized the terrifying solidity of the wool concrete.

Especially when they heard that building walls with cement concrete would become hard and sticky in less than a day, they all hissed and sucked in the air conditioner.

You should know that glutinous rice mortar usually takes more than ten days to harden, but it takes a year to really work.

In other words, when using cement to repair the dike, the speed can be accelerated by at least ten times, everyone will be surrounded by Hua Bozhen, chairman of Jiangnan Building Materials Company, and are excited to ask questions.

The cement concrete that combines the ugliness and power of industry deeply impacts everyone's cognition. Even if you don't like this kind of beauty-free thing, you have to admit that it is a perfect building material that will change the world.

"Brother Hua, wouldn't it be indestructible if this concrete was used to build a city?" Chen Tongzhi asked curiously.

"Of course, even hundreds of kilograms of gunpowder can't be blown away." Hua Bozhen replied proudly. After hearing this, the black gunpowder fell silent and cried. Huang Gunpowder was irritated and wanted to explode.

Everyone gasped for a while and asked again, "Then how did this thing be made?"

"This is the company's secret." Hua Bozhen smiled and said, "I will not be rumored."

"Then you can sell us a little, right?" the guest asked again.

"Sorry, the company's production capacity is currently limited, so we can only supply Kunshan with all our strength." Hua Bozhen said lightly: "If you are interested, you can apply first and wait until our production capacity increases before shipping."

“What’s the price?”

"One tael of silver per bag, sixty kilograms per bag." Hua Bozhen said in a deep voice: "This three-meter-long wall uses a total of ten bags of cement."

Some people who know how to calculate the price of glutinous rice mortar, and the result is that it is exactly twice as expensive.

This time, I was breathing in another air conditioner.

New mortar, which is more than ten times faster than glutinous rice mortar but only half the price, is usually called "invincible"!

"The glutinous rice mortar is going to be eliminated." The guests finally believed that with the help of magical cement, Kunshan County could really build a solid stone river embankment before the arrival of the storm.

Looking at the crowd who were sighing, Hua Bozhen thought to himself that in fact, a bag of cement costs nothing even for ten cents.

What kind of huge profit is this?

As a result, everyone thought that Jiangnan Company was doing charity...

Mr. Zhao kept saying, "I'm not doing business to make money." Do you really believe it?"

He died young.

~~

Kunshan County was busy, so the guests naturally had no time to bother, so they boarded the boat in the Xiaocheng River and said goodbye one after another.

Before boarding the boat, they saw the women, children, elderly people and half-aged children in Kunshan, rowing various boats to deliver water and meals to the embankment.

Fortunately, they were shocked too much today and were already a little numb.

Everyone agreed to Zhao Shouzheng that after the embankment was completed, they must ask them to come and open their eyes again.

Mr. Zhao naturally agreed and gave him a bag of cement as a souvenir before leaving.

The guests were naturally very happy and thought they could go back and study it carefully.

But there is one thing they can't figure out why the words "inedible" are written on the sack.

Could anyone in this world eat cement? Haha, it's ridiculous.

Listening to the guests' comments, a certain Prime Minister of the Hedao who refused to show up felt that he had received a heavy blow of 100,000 points.

I could only eat a piece of initial concrete to relieve my depression.
Chapter completed!
