Traveling through the sword to engage in military industry

Back in Yang Village.

Ren Zhong saw Zhang Wanhe, whom he hadn't seen in a long time, leading a group of people to greet him.

"Boss Ren, long time no see!" Zhang Wanhe greeted Ren Zhong with a smile, "How is it? Are you getting used to life in Yang Village? If you're not happy here, come to headquarters, and I'll be your deputy."

Zhang Wanhe's words made Kong Jie, who was accompanying him, immediately nervous.

"Hey, Old Zhang, Director Zhang, you can't do this," Kong Jie exclaimed. Although he was a bit softer in style than Li Yunlong, he still had the temper of a soldier.

"Old Kong, look at you, you have no overall perspective. Can your Independent Regiment's shallow waters serve Boss Ren, this dragon?"

Zhang Wanhe poached without any scruples, "In my opinion, Boss Ren can only fully exert his abilities in my place."

Ren Zhong's eyes flashed with excitement upon hearing this, looking like he had finally found rain after a long drought. Old Zhang had really delivered this time! He needed such talents too much!

However, Xu Jiucheng's face darkened slightly. Ren Zhong looked like a young student, and it was hard for him to believe that he could build a blast furnace in Yang Village that could produce iron. He knew that even he couldn't complete the design of an iron-smelting device from start to finish by himself.

If Zhang Wanhe weren't here, Xu Jiucheng would probably have questioned him immediately.

Gao Kaiming's dark face didn't show anything, and he listened to Zhang Wanhe's introduction with a slight smile.

"Welcome everyone to join the industrial family of Yang Village. Our various undertakings here are just starting, and we urgently need everyone to add bricks and tiles to consolidate the foundation of our nascent industry. If there are no objections, please come to the regimental headquarters, and we can discuss the work arrangements for the next step!" Ren Zhong stood up and said as a matter of course.

According to his idea, even if these people sent here were experts, they would still be under his leadership. Ren Zhong had always played this role in the industrial undertakings of the Independent Regiment.

"Director Zhang, isn't the industry in Yang Village led by headquarters?" Xu Jiucheng, who was already a little impatient, immediately turned to ask Zhang Wanhe when he heard Ren Zhong's intention that he would have to listen to him.

"Hiss..." Someone gasped, the scene seemed a bit disharmonious.

"Comrade Xu Jiucheng, the industry in Yang Village was built by the Independent Regiment under the leadership and with the technical support of Boss Ren Zhong. Boss Ren has always been in charge of management. Headquarters will not interfere with the development of Yang Village. I want to announce this very clearly to everyone: Boss Ren is the only person who ultimately decides on the leadership of Yang Village's industrial development. Whether it's personnel or technical routes, Boss Ren is the final decision-maker, and even the Independent Regiment cannot violate this rule," Zhang Wanhe announced very seriously, not expecting Xu Jiucheng to raise this question.

On this issue, the well-informed Zhang Wanhe knew that there could be no ambiguity.

It was necessary to clarify Ren Zhong's core control over industrial development; otherwise, these people he brought today would probably start internal strife with Ren Zhong in Yang Village.

Although Xu Jiucheng was also a talent that headquarters had finally managed to invite, it had been made very clear when he was invited that he was there to solve some on-site process technical problems, not to be a pampered guest.

Zhang Wanhe's decisive words immediately silenced everyone in the field.

Xu Jiucheng, who raised the question, looked even darker, obviously not expecting Zhang Wanhe's support for Ren Zhong to be so great. He came to the base area to work on steel, and from the bottom of his heart, Xu Jiucheng supported the Eighth Route Army. He highly recognized the Eighth Route Army's fight against the Japanese after entering Jin Province.

However, as a senior intellectual and the former Deputy Chief Engineer of a steel plant, Xu Jiucheng was not mentally prepared to work under the leadership of a young man.

Ren Zhong didn't expect such a problem to arise at the beginning.

But he didn't intend to back down either. Ren Zhong didn't intend to transfer the power to control the direction of industrial development in Yang Village, or even the industrial development of the base area in the future, because in this time and space, no one understood what kind of technical route was suitable for the development of the base area better than him.

If he gave in today, someone might jump out to object in every new undertaking in the future, wasting time.

The reason why he clung to Li Yunlong so tightly was because Li Yunlong cooperated with him very well. Old Li was a rough man and didn't have much education, but he had one good thing, that was, he valued practicality. After hitting it off with Ren Zhong, he spared no effort to support him and, of course, reaped fruitful results. He was about to achieve the Independent Regiment's freedom of bullets!

Once the steel came out, the freedom of grenades and landmines would be almost here.

Looking at the entire base area, who had such benefits?

"Perhaps everyone doesn't quite understand the current situation in our Yang Village. Director Zhang, how about this? I'll take everyone to visit the industrial situation in our Yang Village first. After the visit, if anyone still feels that staying in Yang Village is useless, then please find another job. After all, forced melons are not sweet," Ren Zhong said.

"Alright, Boss Ren, please lead the way!" Zhang Wanhe's eyes turned, knowing that without showing some real stuff, intellectuals like Xu Jiucheng who had worked in big cities would not be convinced. Seeing is believing. After they had seen the industrial miracle of Yang Village, they would no longer think like this.

Zhang Wanhe could manage the logistics work of tens of thousands of people in an orderly manner. The undertakings under his management involved technology, economy, and complex personnel relationships, making him the strongest all-rounder in the base area. He naturally wouldn't be bothered by this small scene.

Ren Zhong led everyone to the nearby explosives production area first. Even Xu Jiucheng was slightly moved when he saw that there was an explosives production site hidden under moss and vines!

It seemed that there was indeed something here!

Second update, there will be a third update later!
