Travel through the 1945 super power construction secret base

"Mom, I've been back for a while, and I've always wanted to find something to do. But I don't know how to farm, so I want to open a machinery factory on the land beside the village road. Do you know who owns that land?"

While his mother was busy picking vegetables, Wang Ze suddenly remembered the piece of woodland with no crops planted on it that he had just seen, and immediately asked his mother about the situation.

Hearing her son mention this, the busy Queen Mother stopped what she was doing and pondered for a moment. She soon realized what her son was referring to. She sighed softly.

"The piece of land you mentioned is indeed ours. If you have any plans, just go for it. Alas! Your eldest brother gave most of the family's land to the village collective, and only the piece of land you mentioned was kept as a future backup cemetery."

There was a hint of complaint in Wang's mother's words, but Wang Ze knew that as a member of the organization, his elder brother must focus on achieving the organization's goals. So he quickly comforted his mother.

"After all, my eldest brother is also responsible for an important task in the organization, and there is no need for our family to be attached to these lands. It would be a good thing to distribute them to the villagers."

Upon hearing this, the Queen Mother nodded silently in agreement.

Wang Ze saw that his mother's mood had eased a little, so he continued

"Mom, actually I have learned some mechanical knowledge and skills, and I believe I can make some money with it. It's just that the initial stage may require a certain amount of capital investment." After saying this, he couldn't help but reveal a little shyness.

When the Queen Mother heard that her youngest son had a request, she immediately leaned forward and asked in a low voice with concern:

"We have money. When your brother comes back, you can discuss the specific plan together. No matter how much money is needed, we can afford it."

Time passed quickly, and half a month passed in the blink of an eye. When the eldest brother finally returned home, the materials for making adobe bricks were ready and ready to start the firing process.

Night fell. After dinner, the two brothers sat in the yard and talked about building a factory.

Wang Jixin looked at his brother who looked serious. Although he didn't know much about building a factory, he would definitely support his brother if he wanted to do it himself. So he patted his brother on the shoulder and said, "As long as you have confidence, it will be great for our development if you can build this factory. I don't have any problems. Just list all the equipment you need and leave the rest to me!"

Hearing his brother’s firm support for him, Wang Ze was filled with gratitude and motivation.

After all, he has studied mechanical manufacturing for so long, and having a factory of his own has always been his dream!

"Okay, then I'll go back and think about it carefully, and give it to you after I've sorted it out." Wang Ze said in a firm tone.

"Well, no rush. You can think about it slowly tonight. But remember to give it to me early tomorrow morning. I have to rush back to the county town to deal with some things early tomorrow morning." Wang Jixin smiled helplessly, indicating that time was a bit tight.

Hearing this, Wang Ze sighed secretly, wondering why he had to leave after only staying for one day?

But since his elder brother was busy, he could only accept the reality.

Back in the house, Wang Ze immediately picked up a pen and paper and began to make a list of the equipment needed.

The next morning, as soon as the sky turned pale, Wang Ze couldn't wait to hand the paper with all his demands to his eldest brother.

After taking the list and examining it carefully, the elder brother asked doubtfully, "Are these all the equipment? Are they too few? Are they enough?"

Wang Ze smiled and explained: "It's enough. We just need to build a small processing plant that can produce some basic agricultural machinery. Buying too much equipment will not only waste money, but also cause idle resources. Therefore, careful budgeting is the kingly way!"

The reason why Wang Ze wanted this factory was not because he really wanted to start a large-scale enterprise.

To him, the factory simply provides an outlet for his products that have special powers.

After all, no one except himself can predict what will happen ten years later, and by then, these items will be handed over.

It is enough as long as you do not hire workers, do everything yourself, and avoid being labeled as a "capitalist".

"Okay, I'll tell you after I've dealt with it. During this time, you can level the land and repair the factory building."

Wang Jixin could not hide his disappointment. He had hoped that his brother could build a factory to manufacture weapons.

Considering that the current war with the Kuomintang is still unclear and the duration of the war is difficult to predict, if there is a factory that can produce weapons and equipment, it will undoubtedly have a positive impact on the war situation.

However, the reality is not so. What we see is just a small private workshop.

Although he felt a little regretful, Wang Jixin didn't say much.

Since my brother has decided to do this, I will just let it go. After all, my brother is unwilling to help me with farming, and he knows nothing about farming. He can't just sit there doing nothing all day, right?

Although the family's financial situation was sufficient to support an idle person, it was still inappropriate in the eyes of outsiders.

Looking at his brother's back gradually walking away, Wang Ze was secretly happy.

After all, if the knowledge accumulated after years of hard study is not used, it always feels like a waste of effort.

"Mom, I'm going to the village chief's house to talk about building a factory."

After his eldest brother left, Wang Ze hurriedly ate a few mouthfuls of food, said hello to his mother, and walked towards the village chief's house.

Villages in the north are usually not too big, the terrain is flat, and villagers like to build houses close to each other.

So it didn't take long before Wang Ze arrived at the village chief's house.

"Is the village chief here?" Standing at the door, Wang Ze raised his hand, knocked on the door, and asked.

Hearing the noise, a young man in his twenties quickly walked out of the room.

When he saw Wang Ze outside the door, he smiled and said enthusiastically

"Jize is here! We are all family, so you can just come in directly from now on. There is no need to be so polite by knocking."

As he spoke, he called Wang Ze into the house and shouted, "Dad, Wang Jize is here!"

In terms of seniority, their generation uses the word "ji".

In terms of seniority, I should actually call this young man uncle.

"Ji Ze, you're here early! Come in and sit down." Hearing the voice, the village chief came out from the inner room, stood at the door and said to Wang Ze with a smile.

Wang Ze walked into the house, sat down on a chair, and told the village chief the purpose of his visit.

"Village chief, this is what I am planning to do. I am planning to build a machinery factory in the woods at the east entrance of our village. I would like to ask the villagers to help me level the land and build the factory building."

After entering the house, they exchanged a few pleasantries and then got straight to business.

"Oh? So it's the forest land left by your family. No problem, that area is really big. I'll contact someone to help clean it up later."

When the village chief heard this, he immediately understood what the other party meant and agreed without hesitation.

"As for the cost of the work done by the village, you can just settle the wages like you did when you built my house."

"Row!"

The village chief did not say much about the wages.

In fact, when he helped Wang Ze build a house, he had already made it clear that no compensation was required, but such good intentions seemed to be ineffective.

After all, Wang Ze has always been accustomed to using money to solve all problems.

As he had never personally experienced the human touch in the countryside and the mutual assistance between neighbors, he naturally could not understand the deep meaning of them.

"Jize, you should walk around the village more often. Look, you've been back for a month, and although the villagers know you exist, few have actually seen you."

The village chief hesitated for a moment, but couldn't help but give a kind reminder.

"Ah? Got it, Village Chief."

After listening to the village chief's words, Wang Ze responded casually, then said goodbye to the village chief and left.

He had no intention of following the village chief's advice because he was not used to living in an environment where everyone in the village was related.

Although he knew that what the village chief said was right, he still insisted on his own opinion, thinking that it was enough for him to just live his own life.
