Material Empire - v2 Chapter 729
The news that all the outgoing steel had been detained did not return to Xingchuan until three days later, and all the owners of the small steel mills were frightened.
Not all factories ship these days, but steel is always produced outside the county. The working group did not take action in Xingchuan County, but blocked all the outbound passages in Xingchuan County, which is equivalent to jamming the necks of various steel mills. Qin Hai remembers an ad in the later generations, saying there is no killing without purchase. Similarly, to stop the steel bar companies from producing, they do n’t have to worry about checking. As long as their sales channels are stuck, they will naturally support them. No longer.
Steel is not an unusual consumer product. For example, fake cigarettes and wine can be transported through mountain roads. As long as you are willing to get tired, it is not difficult to bypass the checkpoints set by the government. Steel is a bulky and heavy commodity that can only be transported by large trucks or flatbeds, and these vehicles are not possible to detour on mountain roads and can only take regular highways. In addition, due to the large load capacity of these cars, the driving speed cannot be increased, which makes it impossible to achieve the “punching” method. Of course, those self-employed or transportation companies that engage in transportation will not be interested in accompany the steel plant bosses to die. It is really unnecessary to redeem a truck for a steel cart.
“Who the **** is it? It’s too cruel!”
“Don’t this kill us?”
“It would be better to just copy our factory!”
The little bosses were uneasy and angry at the same time. In their opinion, this time the operation was far more vicious than the previous inspection of the factory.
The copying of the factory did not happen in Xingchuan, but it happened in neighboring counties. A small steel plant does not have much fixed assets, the most expensive one is just an electric furnace. Add some steel casting and rolling equipment, at best hundreds of thousands of dollars. When encountering such a thing as copying a factory, the boss often leaves the factory and runs away. Have law enforcement officials pull the equipment away. When the limelight passes, they can use their savings to add equipment. Continue construction.
But this time the situation is different. The other party first tricked the steel mills into purchasing a large amount of scrap steel, and used the money for these raw materials. Then blocked the exit to prevent local strip steel from leaving the country. The things that cannot be sold are no different from the waste products, and the failure to get back the payment means that they have completely lost money in this sale.
The usury merchants in the county got the news right away, and they started to urge debtors to pay on time. Otherwise, it will be profitable until the last drop of blood on these little bosses is drained. However, steel cannot be sold, and no one has the ability to repay usury. As a result, contradictions arise.
Few usurable loans are good, and when I heard that the borrowers couldn’t afford the loan, they arranged for the door to force the debt. The little bosses had no choice but to join forces. Collectively resist the dredging of usury merchants. There have been dozens of brawls in order to collect loans in just a few days, and one even almost killed.
At this level, Gao Xuejian finally couldn’t sit still. He arranged for Wang Yue, the director of the office, to go to Kangtai County to learn about the checkpoint.
Qin Hai actually took the command at the checkpoint in Kangtai. However, in order to avoid trouble, he did not come forward directly, but pushed a battalion commander in the army named Zhang Qianqian as the commander at the scene. When Wang Yue came to the checkpoint, he saw the active officer with a straight waist and majestic face.
As Cui Hongchun suggested, Qin Hai went directly to the early Ming Dynasty. I would like to invite a group of elite soldiers from Weijing District in the early Ming Dynasty to help him complete this operation in the future. Governance of small iron and steel is a real task assigned by the central government, and it is not too outrageous to ask the army to provide cooperation. Qin Hai did not use ministry officials to take charge of various checkpoints. It was because I was worried that the officials of the ministries and commissions would be involved too much, in case of some intercession. These officials can be embarrassed and may even release water. In addition, investigating and dealing with inferior steel is a matter of breaking people’s money, and it will probably trigger *. Finding some army officers to command is also convenient to control the situation.
“Director Zhang Ying, when did you set up this checkpoint, why didn’t you say hello to our place for such a big thing? Some things, let’s help coordinate, will be easier than you.” Wang The more I saw Zhang Qiang, the more he smiled, but with some dissatisfaction inside and out.
Zhang Xiang expressed expressionlessly in front of him and replied, “Director Wang, we are ordered to act and communicate with the place. I don’t understand.”
“Director Zhang Ying, you have deducted so much steel, how are you going to dispose of it? These steels were shipped from our county, and our magistrate is very concerned about your disposal plan.” Wang Yue asked again.
Zhang Qianqian still had that expression, and said, “Sorry, Director Wang, I have been ordered not to allow any inferior steel to pass through this road. As for where these steels come from and how to dispose of them in the future, I don’t know.
“Who should I know about this?” Wang Yue was anxious. The thing he was most afraid of was the situation where oil and salt did not enter. When Zhang was able to loosen his mouth, he would have a way to get in. Pry open a slit.
Zhang Xiangqiandao: “Director Wang can learn from the State Economic and Trade Commission’s Working Group for the Management of Small Iron and Steel. We are also assigned by the working group to carry out the task.”
“So … how long do you plan to check?” Wang Yue asked.
“This … no comment.” Zhang Qianxiang replied very simply.
Wang Yue touched the ash of his nose, and could only go back to report to Gao Xuejian dimly. Gao Xuejian was somber when he heard the situation introduced by Wang Yue. If he can’t think of it again with the smiling Qin Hai who seemed to be weak and incompetent, then he has been fooling in the official world for so many years. He just couldn’t figure it out. Even if Qin Hai found a serious problem in Xingchuan County’s Xiaogang Iron and Steel, it was not necessary to use this method to solve the problem. Since he has the ability to mobilize the troops, he went directly to the village to seize those factories. Easy?
He certainly did not expect that Qin Hai was not blindly pursuing suppression, but was thinking of leading these small steel companies to the path of large-scale and regular operations. To do this, you have to consider some tricks.
“You mean, all these checkpoints are for Xingchuan?” Gao Xuejian asked Wang Yue.
“Yes, several checkpoints are built on the highway about two kilometers outside our county. Obviously, it is to stop the steel transportation of Xingchuan County. I called and asked several other counties, and they did not appear there. A similar situation. “Wang Yuedao.
“Mother’s! I’m sorry about this surname Qin, he didn’t go anywhere, so we only selected Xingchuan to do the research, and that’s it. After the research, I didn’t put a fart, and let us go back. Such a big move, is this trying to force us to die? “Gao Xuejian exclaimed angrily.
“Mayor Gao, else, let’s go to the province and fight with them?” Wang Yue suggested. Zhang Xiangqian said that the order was a working group of the State Economic and Trade Commission. Wang Yue knew that Xingchuan County did not have such a big face to talk directly with the Economic and Trade Commission, and could only coordinate through the province.
“Looking for the province? How to find it, and for what reason?” Gao Xuejian asked angrily.
Wang Yuedao: “They don’t target other counties, they just target us at Xingchuan. Isn’t this reason enough? What is the opinion of the Economic and Trade Commission on Xingchuan? Can you say it directly, why use such a vicious means? As a central ministry, It is unacceptable to engage in such a scheme. “
Gao Xuejian shook his head and said, “No, we can only go to the province in this way. In the end, we can only ask ourselves. It is not that the province does not understand the situation of our county. What the economic and trade commissions pressed down, the province will not. Take the initiative for us, after all, this matter is reasonable, can we say that the county should protect these small steel mills? “
“However, the province has not forced us to shut down small steel mills in the past.” Wang Yue argued.
Gao Xuejian sneered: “But the province has always asked us to shut down small steel mills. As long as these small steel mills have always existed, it is our own fault, and the province will not hold us back.”
“This …” Wang Yue was speechless.
Yanning Province has many cities and counties engaged in small iron and steel. The province has always adopted an attitude of opening one eye and closing one eye. When national governance was intensive, a campaign was launched in the province to clean up one hundred homes ~ www.mtlnovel.com ~ to meet the requirements of the country. When the limelight passes, these small steel mills are resurgent, and the province will not care.
After all, the province needs the taxes provided by these small steel mills and the small steel mills to settle employment, which are more important than energy saving and environmental protection.
However, this tacit understanding between the province and the cities and counties below cannot be discussed on the desktop. Unspoken rules are unspoken rules. Although everyone knows them well, no one will recognize them publicly. In Xingchuan County, if the province wants to help solve the problem of steel checkpoints, it must be able to come up with good reasons, otherwise Gaoxian Jianlian would not even mention it, and had to figure it out by himself.
“Mayor Gao, we can report to the province that these checkpoints were attacked suddenly. The intensity of investigations has affected the livelihood and stability of our county. If this continues, the owners and workers of small businesses will We are going to be hungry. We will not explain anything that affects stability at that time. “Wang Yue said.
Gao Xuejian pursed his lips, silenced for a long time, and then nodded: “In the name of maintaining stability, it is really the only way. However, just saying it may affect stability, it is not convincing. The best is … “
“I see, Gao Xian, I’ll arrange it now.” Wang Yue said intently. (To be continued)
