Shen Mazi was drinking wine with peanuts on the broken table outside. When he saw Hou Wang coming out of the darkness, he stood up and said:

"Master Hou, how are you doing with Master Huang in there?"

"He's fine. He smoked and fell asleep." Hou Wang patted his shoulder and pointed at his ear and said.

Shen Mazi had an ear disease a few years ago and had a high fever that would not go away, and he almost died. After Huang Siqing saw it, he sent someone to the clinic for treatment, and dragged him back from death.

After recovering from the disease, his hearing was severely reduced, but he was not completely deaf and could still hear at close range.

Mazi Shen nodded and sat down again to continue drinking.

Hou Wang took two steps away, his small triangular eyes rolled around in a circle, and suddenly there was a fierce look in his eyes.

I saw him quietly turning around, bending down to pick up a bench at his feet, raising the bench without saying a word, turning around and slapping Shen Mazi hard on the back of the head.

"Pap...pap..."

Poor Mazi Shen let out a dull groan in his throat, his body went limp, he rolled his eyes and threw himself on the table. He barely struggled, and bright red blood flowed out from the back of his head and dripped down the seam of the table to the floor.

Hou Wang looked on indifferently, and suddenly hit the second bench hard, beating Shen Mazi until his eyes popped out and his brains splattered everywhere.

He put his hand under Shen Mazi's nose and tried to breathe. When he saw that there was no breath left, he quickly opened the door gently, looked around and found nothing unusual, and disappeared outside the door in an instant.

…

Chen Tianhua stayed in Guangji Hospital for seven days and insisted on being discharged.

His gunshot wound is not serious, the bullet has been removed, and he can now move his arm, but it will take another half a month to remove the stitches.

He was in the hospital every day like he was in jail. Although Li Shuzhen came to accompany him every day, he still had his own business in Shuangqi Town, which had just started. Projects such as lake breeding had not yet started, and there were many people waiting for him there.

At A Hua's place, Sun Yong had already sent someone to notify him in advance, saying that Young Master Chen was engaged in the Li Mansion and that there were some things that needed to be dealt with, so he asked A Hua to sail back first.

When they heard that Chen Tianhua was engaged to Miss Li Fusan, Ah Hua and Xue Chaoyuan were of course very happy.

How come it’s so fast and you don’t even have to set up a few tables in Shuangqi Town?

The visitor said that this was requested by the third lady and that it was a new thing to do.

With this great news coming, Xue Chaoyuan and Ahua drove the modified sailboat back to Xibutou Village, and they had to tell all their relatives and friends quickly.

Relatives of Chen and Xue also wanted to celebrate.

Xue Wanzhen even smiled from ear to ear, "This kid is so old-fashioned that he didn't tell me in advance when he was going to get engaged. Even though I am a poor mother-in-law, I gave my daughter-in-law a pair of jade bracelets and kept them in the bottom of the box.

"

From Shuangqi Town to Xibutou Village, the news of Chen Tianhua's engagement in the provincial capital spread like wildfire, and they were told to each other.

In the past few days, Chen Tianhua's home has been crowded with people, and the doorsteps have been stepped down. Many people came to the house to congratulate him, and some people even sent congratulatory gifts.

Even though she usually doesn't think highly of Aunt Zhang, the neighbor next door to Chen Tianhua's family, she came to congratulate her this time and also accepted the gift.

In the countryside, if you have a promising future or achieve something high, the people who serve you will follow you one after another.

Dear fellow villagers, if something happens in the future, please call me.

People can be so snobbish sometimes.

Chen Tianhua stayed in the Li Mansion for two days, and on the third day he insisted on returning to Shuangqi Town, Shaoxing. His father-in-law, Li Cunzhi, finally agreed.

He requested that in half a month, he would come back to the Li Mansion to discuss matters and also go to Guangji Hospital to have the stitches removed.

Chen Tianhua naturally agreed.

Finally, Sun Yong personally drove Chen Tianhua to Xibutou Village on a sailing speedboat.

…

According to the planning and design of Shuangqi lime kiln, the first phase of fixed asset construction mainly includes the construction of two calcining blast furnaces in the second workshop and the construction of the office building.

Everything is going on in an orderly manner.

At the same time, the lake breeding farm in Guazi Lake is also proceeding in an orderly manner.

This project was carried out jointly by Chen Tianhua and Chen Zongyu. The total equity capital was 5,000 yuan, and Chen Zongyu invested 2,000 silver yuan, accounting for 40% of the shares.

This small project is inconspicuous to Chen Zongyu. Through this project, he can maintain contact with Chen Tianhua in order to achieve greater development.

Regarding the marriage between Chen Tianhua and Li Shuzhen, the third daughter of the Li family, Chen Zongyu agreed.

What we are doing now, without the support of the military community, the future will be unknown.

If there is support from the military community, there will be greater room for development in the future, not only in the physical sector, but also in the financial and banking industries.

Of course, Chen Zongyu didn't say much now. This was his grand plan, and he had already taken Chen Tianhua into consideration in this plan.

In addition to raising fish around Guazi Lake, Lingen and his family also bought seven or eight ponds near the lake. They tried raising yellow clams and herrings in the ponds. They tested them first. If successful, they will spread them throughout the village and throughout the country.

Town promotion.

The basic construction of Shuangqi lime kiln has begun.

After nearly five months of joint efforts by infrastructure workers and kiln technicians, a brand new second workshop was completed. Two larger and more fully functional calcining blast furnaces rose from the ground, and the tall chimneys spewed out billowing gases.

of thick smoke.

After testing, it fully meets the design requirements, which means that the quality control of temperature control for shellfish exercise has been raised to a new level.

Next to the workshop, there is also a boiler room to provide boiling water. The hot steam from the blast furnace cooling water is provided to the employee canteen and bathhouse, which not only saves energy, but also improves the working environment of the employees.

These conditions and advantages were unimaginable in the countryside in the late Qing Dynasty.

A two-story office building was built. The design adopts a single-sided exterior corridor building structure. The upper and lower floors have a total construction area of ​​about 2,000 square meters. An additional part of the building is about 800 square meters, which is used as a dormitory for employees.

use.

The whole building is bright and spacious.

Chen Tianhua's governor's office is on the second floor. It has a three-bedroom layout with a total area of ​​more than 120 square meters. The left side of the office is connected to his dormitory, and the right side is connected to the conference room and graphics design room.

The office has regular office desks and chairs, reception tables and chairs, file cabinets, etc., all of which are custom-made from wood processing workshops in Shaoxing city.

The office furniture and facilities in the entire building were copied from the city, and they are no different from the large workshops in Shaoxing.

In the corridors, there are placards and department signs designed by Chen Tianhua and made by the kiln.

Department signs include:

Governor's office, board room, conference room, finance department, supply and marketing department...

The slogan content is:

Work hard and work hard

Be diligent and frugal, control costs

Quality is king, quality first

…

In short, Chen Tianhua transplanted the most basic, simple and easy-to-understand parts of current business management to the current kilns of the late Qing Dynasty more than a hundred years ago, which made everyone feel fresh and new.

He made full use of his current scientific knowledge and technology to deeply process and classify shells, a natural raw material for calcium carbonate, to increase product value and generate maximum economic benefits.
