My abandoned oil town became a new frontier

A few minutes later,

Looking at the truck gradually disappearing at the end of the street, Liu Ming walked towards a small alley in the county street.

After another minute or so, Liu Ming turned into the yard of an old brick house.

The yard is large but a bit messy. There is a lot of scrap metal piled up in the northwest corner. There is also a pool of black stains and some wrenches next to it. It seems that it should be a place where machinery is often repaired.

anyone there?

Looking around and seeing no one, Liu Ming shouted.

Yes! Who are you looking for?

Not long after he finished speaking, a young man with short hair and trousers rolled up opened the door of the room at the end of the courtyard.

Oh, hello, can I rent an excavator here?

Seeing this,

Liu Ming asked immediately.

Xu Xing specifically told this before setting off, so he found out about this place when he went to the county to purchase supplies.

Are you just renting the excavator or are you renting the driver and the excavator together?

The young man looked Liu Ming up and down.

Even the driver! I also need a loader, a small hoist and a trencher. By the way, if you have that kind of muck truck for rent here, we need two more.

Liu Ming nodded.

According to his and Xu Xing's plan, Yiyuan was planned to be built directly south of the campground, and the current gravel parking lot would be further transformed and upgraded into a small square in front of the main entrance of Yiyuan.

The south side of the campground is now full of ruins and ruins.

If you want to have the reception capacity in one month, you must have this kind of machinery.

You want so much? Boss, what kind of project are you doing?

Hearing this,

The young man then took out a pack of cigarettes from his pocket, pulled one out and handed it over.

Thank you, I don't smoke! It's just an ordinary infrastructure project. By the way, our boss asked if we could have two more drivers. He wanted to work in three shifts without stopping for 24 hours.

Liu Ming pushed the cigarette back.

Oh, it's no problem to have a driver, and it's even better to work three shifts! It's just the wages.

The young man paused and spoke again.

Wages can be settled daily or collectively after completion, it's up to you!

Liu Ming is very confident.

Although Xu Xing has not told him his detailed past or family background so far, nor why he stayed alone in Binghu Village, there is one thing Liu Ming is sure of, that is, Xu Xing is by no means a poor man!

Whether it was buying a tree quietly or transferring money before departure this time, it was enough to explain the problem.

therefore,

He only cares about doing things and doesn't think about money.

Can wages be paid on a daily basis? Uncle, my name is Feng Jun. How about we go into the house and you have a cup of tea first? We will discuss the details and sign the contract if there is no problem!

I heard that wages can be settled on a daily basis.

The attitude of young people is even worse than before.

OK!

In this way, the young man and Liu Ming walked towards the hut, still chatting about related matters as they walked.

Uncle, where is this project?

Ice Lake Village!

Ice Lake Village? That abandoned oil town? Is it going to be redeveloped again?

“It’s not considered development!”

Oh, then it looks like we need to bring more tents! By the way, uncle, how are we going to get food there? Is it a canteen on the construction site or do we have to deal with it ourselves? If we go by your standards, we should probably have about twenty people over there.

Construction site canteen?

When the young man asked, Liu Ming stopped in his tracks.

I haven't really considered this issue yet.

As the boss, Xu Xing needs to make overall plans when building Yiyuan. When there are few people, he can still make ends meet. But what happens when there are more people? You can't boil water for cooking every day, right?

After a pause, Liu Ming turned his head and said,

This hasn't been decided yet. I'll call the boss later and see how he arranges it!

Uncle, if it's inconvenient, I can help you ask. I know a few bosses who specialize in selling fast food near the construction site. Basically, they go wherever there are projects. I don't know if they are willing to go to Binghu Village.

Is there such a fast food restaurant?

Liu Ming's expression changed.

Yes! They can't be regarded as fast food restaurants, they can only be regarded as mobile vendors on construction sites.

Okay, let's ask for help first. I'll tell our boss when it's done.

Okay, uncle!

After the rain, the weather has cleared up again, and the feeling of summer has returned to the northwest. At nine o'clock in the evening, the sun has just set.

Binghu Village has changed from the dead silence of the past, and voices and laughter can be heard from time to time.

Looking at the building materials piled up like a hill in the open space, he slowly turned around and walked into the hut.

Just an hour ago,

He saw off Li Zhijun, who had come to deliver goods, and then welcomed Zhang Dapeng and others who had rushed back from Asai County. Finally, there was another round of unloading, and they had just finished their work until this time.

Qian is really a super scumbag! In one afternoon, more than 7 million Xia coins in the card already have a new owner!

After pouring a glass of boiling water, Xu Xing once again opened the Yiyuan design and construction drawings placed on the table.

Li Zhijun’s friend is super efficient!

I made the call at around three o'clock in the afternoon, and the electronic contract was sent over at around five o'clock.

After signing the contract and paying the deposit, Li Zhijun's friend said that their construction and installation team would be able to enter the site tomorrow, and also asked Xu Xing to determine the location of the well as soon as possible, so that their team could dig the well and build the generator set at the same time.

There must be a space for a well in Yiyuan. Only in this way can we ensure that the newly built Yiyuan has the charm of the Sioux City Yiyuan on earth. But what about the trees inside? Is it possible to copy them all one-to-one?

moment,

Xu Xing took out his pen and marked a location while shaking his head and muttering to himself.

In fact, it is not as difficult as imagined to make a one-to-one copy of Yiyuan, especially the trees and those Taihu stones.

Not bad as expected,

During the next construction period, we will definitely be able to clear out a lot of main beams, wooden rafters and various scraps that can be exchanged for pawn value from the ruins. You can just buy them directly from the system mall at that time.

But the only thing that worries Xu Xing is the climate!

Whether in reality or on the Internet, it is said that the northwest has no scenery in winter. There is a reason why this is said.

Binghu Town is located in the northwest, and the lowest temperature in winter is minus 20 or 30 degrees Celsius. The pond in Yiyuan is not bad. As long as it is dug deeper, even if it freezes, it will not affect the fish and shrimp inside.

But the trees in the design are definitely not suitable. When winter comes, everything becomes desolate. We can’t wrap them in plastic every winter!

“How about replacing it with a hardy, cold-tolerant, evergreen tree that’s available all year round?”

Xu Xing picked up the water glass and took a sip but quickly shook his head.

No! This will make the winter look more green, but it will also lose that feeling. The reason why Yiyuan is beautiful is that every building and even every tree can complement each other. Sophora japonica and big poplar trees are planted in It’s not like being by the pond!”

how to do?

Thinking about it,

Xu Xing paced back and forth for a moment and suddenly an idea came to him.

That's right! Why don't you keep some of the original tree species and add some more plum trees? Not only will they not freeze to death in winter, but they will also bloom.

The more I think about it,

Xu Xingyue felt that this idea was very feasible. He couldn't say for sure, but it could at least be a reserved plan.

but,

Just when Xu Xing wanted to further study what other tree species were more suitable for Binghu Village, Zhang Dapeng's voice suddenly came from outside the door.
