Chapter 199

On this day, after Lin Hongfei gave a map surveying and mapping class to the students in the teaching brigade, he left first.

When we were leaving, a group of students greeted and saw off from the senior instructors and the short instructors.

As soon as he stepped out of the classroom door, he saw his personal adjutant Li Kui waiting outside. Seeing Lin Hongfei coming out, he hurried up to greet him:

"Company Commander, Officer Wu just sent a message that a man named Wayne is here."

When Lin Hongfei heard it, he smiled immediately: "The big nose has finally come. If he doesn't come again, I thought he was robbed by water bandits."

"Let's go back to the county office!"

Immediately, Lin Hongfei took Li Kui and several guards to the county government. On the way, Lin Hongfei asked Li Kui:

"Kuizi, I heard that Mrs. Huo told you about the marriage. Is there such a thing?"

Aunt Huo is Huo Yunshan's mother, the Huo Bai family. Speaking of which, Aunt Huo and Bai Wenju are relatives of the same clan, and Bai Wenju wants to call Aunt Huo an old lady.

Li Kui said with some embarrassment: "Yes, it's Aunt Huo's niece from her mother's family, the daughter of Director Bai's second uncle's family."

"Two days ago, my aunt took me to Baijia Village and looked at the girl from a distance."

"How do you feel?" Lin Hongfei asked with a smile.

Li Kui blushed, and he, who was always not good at words, held back for a long time before uttering a sentence:

"That's right, it's pretty good!"

Li Kui followed Lin Hongfei from Lu Province to Jiangdu County. He has been doing things decently for so long and won Lin Hongfei's trust. He has been promoted from the company orderly to Lin Hongfei's personal adjutant.

It was precisely after seeing this that Bai Wenju's family, a big family in Jiangdu, took the initiative to ask Huo Bai's family to be a matchmaker, so as to further draw closer to Lin Hongfei.

"Then get married as early as possible. I just bought a big house in Jiangdu County and set aside a side yard for your wedding room."

"The Bai family is considered a big family, we can't let this big family look down on us."

"I'll give you this betrothal gift, and I'll make it according to the highest standard in Jiangdu County. When the time comes, I'll ask Huo Yunshan to bring a company to pick up the bride, and make the formation happen!"

"Anyone who dares to make trouble or block the door during the marriage reception, just drag me out and beat me up!"

His personal adjutant wanted to get married, so Lin Hongfei, the chief officer, naturally couldn't stand by and watch.

Moreover, through the big battle to welcome the relatives, it also showed their attitude to the Bai family and other big families by the way.

Marriage with my Lin Hongfei's subordinates is fine, but don't bully your son-in-law from other places just because you are a local, let alone think that you are an old man, so you can point fingers and make irresponsible remarks on your son-in-law.

When Li Kui heard this, he was naturally very grateful. He is not a person who can speak beautiful words, and all his gratitude will be reflected in his actual actions.

Not long after, Lin Hongfei returned to the county office. As soon as he entered the front hall, he saw Wu Yongquan and Ding Dehu chatting with a foreigner with yellow hair and a big nose. On the sofa beside him were four foreigners in suits. .

After seeing Lin Hongfei, Wayne immediately jumped up from the sofa and shouted happily:

"Mr. Lin, long time no see, these days, I never stop thinking about you!"

The corner of Lin Hongfei's mouth twitched a few times: "Speak well, don't make such sour things."

Back then, after Wayne got acquainted with Lin Hongfei on the train to Lu Province, the two began to cooperate for a long time.

At the beginning, Wayne was only responsible for importing machines, dyes, gray cloth, etc. to the dyeing factory in Qingcheng.

With the deepening of trust between the two parties, Lin Hongfei simply invested, and jointly opened a foreign firm with Wayne, and the scope of business was also expanding.

When naming the foreign company, Lin Hongfei named the foreign company 'Wal-Mart Foreign Company' in a very malicious way.

Some time ago, the father of one of Wayne's college classmates was promoted to an executive at the Springfield Arsenal in the Lighthouse Country, so the foreign firm's business also began to get involved in the arms industry.

After chatting for a while, Wayne didn't forget about the business, and immediately introduced the four foreigners he had brought to Lin Hongfei.

Among the four people, two are senior engineers in the coal industry, one is Ross and the other is Bender. This time they came here to investigate the situation of the coal mine and help them establish an efficient and advanced mining mechanism.

Among the remaining two, one was named Phils, who had worked in the Port of Chicago in the Lighthouse Country for many years, from a low-level dock worker to a middle-level manager. It can be said that he has rich experience.

Lin Hongfei hopes that this person's experience can be used on Jiangdu Wharf to further improve the situation at the wharf.

The last person was named Chris. Lin Hongfei knew this person. When he opened a new dyeing factory in Jinmen, this person was responsible for the site selection and construction of the dyeing factory.

Lin Hongfei once checked the situation in Jiangdu County and the entire Jiangbei area. He found that the textile printing and dyeing industry here is basically small workshops, and there are no large dyeing factories or textile factories.

The textile market in the Jiangbei area is basically occupied by two dyeing factories in Dongjiang City, the provincial capital, and several dyeing factories from Hubei Province.

If it is other commodities, Lin Hongfei can bear it.

But he started to make money by opening a dyeing factory, and his Feihu brand sold well in Lu Province, Hebei Province, Fengtian and other places.

Now, on my site, all the products are sold by other dyeing factories, can this be tolerated?

Therefore, Lin Hongfei planned to let Chris build a dyeing factory in Jiangdu County, firstly to earn foreign exchange for himself, and secondly to solve the problem of dressing the soldiers of the independent regiment.

Of course, there is the most important point, to absorb part of the labor force in Jiangdu County!

The reason why the gentry have more prestige among the people than the official is that they directly control a large amount of land and production tools, and the common people can only obey them in order to survive.

In this way, the gentry relied on the so-called "public opinion" and thus had the qualifications to challenge the authorities and negotiate conditions.

Therefore, since ancient times, the imperial power did not go to the countryside, not because the emperor did not want to go to the countryside, but it is true that few people can't do it.

Therefore, Lin Hongfei can deter the people living in Jiangdu County in a short period of time through violent means.

But fundamentally speaking, ordinary people will still obey the gentry who leased their land.

After all, as the county magistrate, Lin Hongfei is still too far away from the common people.

And the gentry who provided land and tools to the people were too close.

Therefore, the solution to this dilemma is to give these ordinary people a new way out.

You can still support your family without farming!

And opening a factory is the solution.

The people worked in the factories and could earn cash every month, so they no longer had to rely on the handouts from the gentry.

Over time, their sense of belonging will completely fall on the factory, thus cutting off their attachment to the gentry and no longer obeying them.

A factory needs a lot of strong labor, and behind each strong labor is a big family.

These strong laborers work in Lin Hongfei's factory, wear the overalls provided by Lin Hongfei, and take the salary given by Lin Hongfei, and their hearts will naturally turn to Lin Hongfei.

These workers and the families behind them are Lin Hongfei's future base in Jiangdu County.
