Dashan Makes a Living 1984

Wang Tianxiao didn't pay any attention to the concierge's words.

The concierge had no choice but to raise his voice, "I'm asking you something, what exactly are you going to do?"

Only then did Wang Tianxiao open his eyes, looked at the concierge, and pointed at himself, "Are you asking me?"

The concierge cursed inwardly, this kid, he even installed it.

But seeing that the engineer's car was stopped, it would not be good if he didn't deal with it quickly, so he had no choice but to be patient: "Can you move the car down, you blocked our gate."

"I can't move." Wang Tianxiao shook his head.

"Why? Just start the car and drive to the side, wouldn't it be fine?"

"If you don't see Director Li, you can't move. Just let me move the car, tell me if Director Li is at the station, or when he will come back, otherwise I will wait for him here."

"Hey, you young man, our director Li has so many things to do, and anyone can see him if he wants to. If everyone wants to see him, then he still has other jobs."

"That won't work. If I don't see him, I won't move away."

"Why are you still relying on it?" The old porter was also dumbfounded. It was the first time he had encountered such a single-minded person.

"Either you let me in, or I'll just wait, that's all, I have plenty of time."

The concierge was completely dumbfounded.

He saw Wang Tianxiao closed his eyes again and started to sleep.

And over there, the two engineers told him with their eyes, hurry up, we still have something to do.

The concierge really had no choice but to grit his teeth, "Okay, okay, I'm afraid of an uneducated person like you, you move the car away first, and I'll take you to see Director Li later."

"That won't work. What if I move away and you lie to me?"

"What did I lie to you for?" The porter felt that his reputation had been insulted, and raised his voice, "I'm not that kind of person."

"Really?"

"Of course not." The concierge almost swore.

Only then did Wang Tianxiao smile, jump off the motorcycle and push the motorcycle to the side.

The engineering vehicle was able to enter.

Perhaps to prove that he is a person of integrity, the concierge waited for the construction vehicle to enter, and said directly to Wang Tianxiao, "Come here and register."

"OK."

When Wang Tianxiao came to the concierge to register, he said with a smile, "Isn't it possible to meet, I have to say no, I thought I had to write an application, it was so troublesome."

"Just take it as soon as it's good. It's because of my old man's mercy that I let you in. If you talk too much, I'll close the door immediately."

"You won't, you are not the kind of person who has no integrity." Wang Tianxiao put down the pen and smiled.

"..." The porter was choked and speechless.

The concierge picked up the registration book and saw that the reason for Wang Tianxiao's registration was to pull the electricity, he was stunned for a while, "Didn't you just say that you are a forestry farm?"

"yes."

"What kind of electricity do you pull in the forest farm?" The porter laughed mockingly: "You don't understand anything, do you know how much it costs to lay the wires?"

"How do you say it?"

Just as the concierge was about to say something, he saw a middle-aged man coming back from the outside on a bicycle. When the concierge saw it, he ran out of the door to say hello, "Director Li, are you back?"

"Hmm." Director Li didn't seem to want to see the concierge, he nodded casually and was about to go in, but soon noticed Wang Tianxiao standing outside the concierge, and asked, "What do you do?"

Wang Tianxiao didn't expect to meet Director Li so easily.

In fact, when he came to the power station this time, he didn't look for anyone else but the person in charge, because he also knew that ordinary people couldn't solve the power supply problem at the station.

The reason is also very simple.

Because the current is like a water flow, it is transmitted from the power station to all the transformers, and finally enters thousands of households. It cannot jump directly, but is like a canal, and a transmission channel needs to be built first.

The channels of electricity are circuits, and the facilities are utility poles and public lines.

The erection of public lines and utility poles must be planned, not random, and must meet two basic conditions.

Cover more users and reduce the power consumption of the transmission process as much as possible.

Wires... also lose power.

Judging by these two principles, no matter how you look at it, it is difficult for the field station to be covered by the circuit in places where there are no houses around.

Regardless of the fact that all the mountaintops in later generations are connected to electricity, but in this era, before electricity has entered thousands of households, it is not so difficult to have the stations directly connected to electricity.

Without communication with the power supply station, it is impossible to land.

Wang Tianxiao walked up to Director Li, gave out a cigarette, and said with a smile: "That's right, Director Li, I heard that we are going to send electricity to the countryside, so I want to know how to connect it."

"This matter has been publicized to every village. You should ask your village chief, what are you doing here?"

As Director Li said, he was about to push the car into the unit.

Wang Tianxiao hastily chased after a few steps, "Director Li, my place is a bit special, and it's not the same as the general situation."

"Oh?" Director Li was still patient and stopped, "Why are you so special?"

"That's right, Director Li, do you know Yang Ziling?"

"Yang Ziling, I seem to have heard of it, is it the mountain to the west?"

"You're right. Our Yangziling is a branch of Ziwuling. I'm a forest guard assigned by the Municipal Forestry Bureau to Yangziling..."

"You don't mean to send the telegram to Yang Ziling, do you?" Director Li suddenly guessed what Wang Tianxiao wanted to say, and interrupted him in surprise.

Wang Tian smiled, "Director Li is really wise. I came to you today because of this matter. You also know that it is not easy to pull electricity in Yangziling, but the conditions on the mountain are very bad. Method.

"You know it's not easy to come back?"

"I'm here to discuss with you. As long as the electricity can be sent up, I can agree to any conditions. If you have any difficulties, please tell me, and I will come up with a solution."

"It's not easy," Director Li looked at Wang Tianxiao, shook his head and sighed, "It's hard, since you work on the mountain, you know that sending electricity to the mountain is undoubtedly more difficult than climbing to the sky.

"You probably don't understand yet. Sending electricity to the past is not a matter of touching the upper lip to the lower lip. He needs to bury the poles along the way, and also needs to erect a lot of wires. Moreover, because the transmission distance is too long, transformers need to be added. , this is not a small expense."

"I know this too..."

"Although it is said that the government has subsidies for sending electricity to the countryside this time, this kind of subsidies is very limited and definitely not enough to cover your requirements. In my opinion, this matter can only be discussed in the long run, and there is no plan to send it to the countryside. It can only let you Be wronged and wronged first."

Director Li learned that Wang Tianxiao was also a member of the Forestry Bureau, so he was already quite polite to him. Knowing that this matter was impossible, he was still willing to explain it patiently to him.

But since Wang Tianxiao came today, he had already planned in his heart, so it was impossible to give up so easily, and he said to Director Li: "Director Li, I know this is very difficult, but no matter how difficult it is, there is always a way. right?

I'm not here to embarrass you, but to show me the way. Well, tell me how to do this to make it work. As long as it can be done well, I will figure out what needs to be paid. If it doesn't work, I can go to our bureau, don't you think?

"You really want to pull?" Director Li looked at it for a long time, but Wang Tianxiao still didn't give up, and he was a little surprised.

"Yes, I really want to pull it." Wang Tianxiao said seriously.

Only then did Director Li get serious. He pondered for a while, then brought Wang Tianxiao to his office, and asked him to sit down and talk slowly.

Director Li took out a network map of electric power planning and spread it on the tea table. Wang Tianxiao noticed that Yang Ziling was not planned on this map at all.

"Little Wang, right?"

"Mmm, yes."

"Look, Xiao Wang, this time we laid the power grid, covering basically all the surrounding villages, but not including your station in Yangziling. Yangziling is located in the westernmost part of our Qingquan Town. Part of it belongs to our Qingcheng, and part of it belongs to Chi County. , is a border area, how to arrange this area actually depends on how the two counties communicate..."

"I understand the truth," Wang Tianxiao said with a wry smile, "but you also know how long this kind of communication will last. Since it is sending electricity to the countryside so that everyone can light up, then we can't be left alone. Abandon it, right?"

"That's true, but I've made it clear to you about the reality. Do you have any other good solutions?"

"I do have an idea."

"Then let's hear it." Hearing that Wang Tianxiao has a way, Director Li also became interested.

"Look, Director Li..." Wang Tianxiao tapped a place on the power distribution planning map, "This is the power supply station, right? Then this is Wangjia Village, and after that is Xialiu Village. Next to Xialiu Village."

"Yes, that's right."

"Should we lay public lines along a straight-line distance, plant poles along the way to send electricity, and then install transformers in the villages along the way to convert high-voltage electricity into 220 volts suitable for use?"

"Yes, that's right," Director Li looked at Wang Tianxiao unexpectedly, "Young man, I didn't expect you to understand this, it's really rare."

No wonder Director Li was surprised.

Unlike later generations, every household has electricity. Everyone has become accustomed to electricity. Many people have known about electricity since they were young. After going to school, they have a very thorough understanding of electricity.

But in this day and age, many people have never traveled far or downtown for most of their lives, so they have never seen electricity at all. Among them, most of them don't know the characters, let alone understand the basics of circuits.

So Director Li was surprised and surprised to see such a knowledgeable person as Wang Tianxiao.

"Then, can you arrange to install the transformer in Xialiu Village at this location?"

Wang Tianxiao didn't bother with Director Li's curiosity about him, and pointed his index finger at a position in the picture.

That is the westernmost part of Xialiu Village, and if you go further west, you will enter Yangziling.

"this……"

Director Li hesitated slightly, and said, "Accordingly, we generally don't set it up like this. Based on cost considerations, we will try our best to set the transformer at the closest and most suitable location from the public line in the village. The place you are referring to has deviated from the Our high-voltage transmission line is far away."

Wang Tianxiao knew that this way of thinking would not be accepted soon, so he was not in a hurry, and began to use his persuasive tongue to persuade.

"Director Li, I understand the truth of what you said, but you also said that this is not a regulation, but is set up like that under normal circumstances. Then I can also understand that this kind of thing is actually not something that can't be changed. , if it is due to special reasons, it can be used flexibly?"

"That's right, but..."

"Director Li, think about it, the work of laying the circuit network is just beginning now, so it will enter the village, but once people realize the convenience of electricity, it is imperative to fully lay it out."

Wang Tianxiao drew a line on the map along the route, "Think about it, this Yangziling will be powered on sooner or later. After all, it belongs to the public unit, so it can't be lit up in the village, and the station alone can be darkened?"

"Of course not. After full electrification, all areas and units must be covered. As long as we are willing to use electricity, we will meet everyone's electricity needs."

"That's it. If we want to send electricity to the mountain by then, do we need to add a voltage stabilizer here, so we can't connect electricity from the end of the village to the mountain? Then don't say that the voltage on me is serious. The downside is that normal use in the village will be affected.”

"Well, you are right. Even if you use electricity at that time, it must not be pulled from Xialiu Village. The load is too large to meet the requirements."

"So I just said, build the transformer directly at the location I designated, and lead it up the mountain separately. In this way, Xialiu Village and I will not interfere with each other, and both can use electricity stably."

Director Li nodded, thinking that what Wang Tianxiao said made sense, but he quickly realized it and shook his head again and again, "You are right, but now there is a fatal problem here."

"You mean that there is no plan to send electricity up the mountain, so there is no related budget?"

"Don't you understand?" Director Li said with a wry smile, "The power supply station in our town is actually the executive unit, and it can't decide anything. Often, when one thing is explained, it is already a firm order, and there is no discussion. There is only room for us to do it.”

"Don't worry, Director Li, I will not make things difficult for you. You can see if this works, you can help me find a way to set up the station of the voltage regulator at the foot of the mountain. In this way, you don’t have to pay more budget, and I can connect the electricity to the station smoothly, isn’t it a way to get the best of both worlds?”

Director Li was taken aback for a moment, quickly calculating the possibility of this matter in his mind, and soon he came to his senses and asked the first question first.

"Xiao Wang, I don't know the background of your forestry bureau, but as far as I know, Ziwu Ridge doesn't have much resources to lean on Qingcheng's side. Since this is just a sub-station, how much money can you afford? ? Even if I agree with your idea, can you really afford the cost of going up the mountain?"

Wang Tianxiao expected that he would ask such a question, and smiled slightly, "Thank you, Director Li, for your concern. I know this project is not a trivial matter, and it will cost a lot. However, with the capacity of our station, we can barely afford it. So this point on you, but don't worry."

"I didn't see it, you can spend such a large amount of money with a small base."

"Haha, it's also the expenses that have been accumulated for a long time. Because life in the mountains is very inconvenient, but the work can't be left behind, so the leaders of the bureau and the station have long been planning these things, and the expenses have also been planned in advance."

Naturally, Wang Tianxiao will not reveal the fact that he is the real investor behind the scenes, and he uses the venue as a shield for everything outside.

On the one hand, it can prevent others from being too surprised by him. On the other hand, no matter how clear the water is, the Forestry Bureau is still a government department.

Doing things must be more effective with less effort.

Sure enough, Director Li heard that it was a matter that both the bureau and the station attached great importance to, and the importance was quietly higher.

The two chatted again, and just when Wang Tianxiao felt that things were close, Director Li suddenly smiled slightly, and leaned lazily on the sofa, "Xiao Wang, I have basically grasped your requirements, but you have to To accomplish this, I still need to work hard, so just kidding, I helped you, what can you do for me?"

Wang Tianxiao was slightly taken aback.

For a while, he couldn't figure out what Director Li meant.

Is it to gain benefits?

Still want a favor?

Or, he really just wanted to make a joke.

Looking at Director Li's seemingly upright face, he quickly thought about countless answers to the questions in his mind.

Guessing Director Li's real needs.

While hesitating, his eyes scattered over the washbasin shelf in the corner of the wall. There was an enamel washbasin on it. The porcelain outside had fallen off a lot, forming many spots.

Hanging above the washstand was a black towel, the edges of which were torn and torn, it must have been used for some years.

Looking at the soap box next to the towel, there are only a few small flakes of soap left in it.

Wang Tianxiao can basically judge that Director Li is a fairly clean person.

It may be because electricity has not been widely popularized and applied in this era, so the power supply department is not yet a favorite. After a few years, with the development of civilian and industrial electricity, the power department has become a big brother and a popular department.

Right now, since Director Li is not doing it for private benefit, then Wang Tianxiao has prepared a way to deal with him.

"Haha, Director Li, before answering your question about self-payment, can I ask you something first?"

"What are you talking about?"

"How often do you plan to deliver electricity to every household?"

"Well..." Director Li made some calculations and replied, "It's estimated to be about three months. The main reason is that the recent land has not been fully digested, and it is not easy to dig holes for utility poles."

Wang Tianxiao shook his head.

"What? What do you mean?" Director Li was very puzzled seeing Wang Tianxiao's strange expression.

"Three months is not enough."

Wang Tianxiao shook his head again, and then added: "In my opinion, your project, not to mention three months, will be difficult even for another three months. It will be considered fast if it can be completed before winter."
