Chapter 176: Large-scale Pig Farm
Chapter 176: Large-scale Pig Farm
Whether the independent column can gain more territory in this war depends on how it operates.
The independent column’s base is now too small, and it must occupy more territory in order to continue to grow and develop.
.......
Li Dakang hummed a little tune all the way and walked briskly into the headquarters yard.
As soon as he entered the door, he saw Gundam lying in the yard resting.
"Commander, I have something important to report."
Gaoda opened his eyes when he heard Li Dakang's voice and sat up from the recliner.
"Minister Dakang, what do you want to report?"
Li Dakang took a small stool and walked to sit in front of Gaoda.
"Commander, the Ping An Clothing Factory is about to be completed, and the next step is to officially start production."
Gundam looked at Li Dakang in surprise.
"Minister Dakang, the construction progress of the clothing factory is too fast. I have been inspecting the troops these days, so I haven't been to see it."
"Commander, Lijiazhuang has mobilized hundreds of people to build a clothing factory every day, so how can the progress not be fast?"
After hearing Li Dakang's explanation, Gaoda became interested. He wanted to see how the clothing factory was built.
He attached great importance to the Ping'an Bedding Factory, which was the only large factory in the independent column's base and bore the heavy burden of the base's economic development.
As for the current situation of the Independent Column, they cannot produce other industrial products. Only the production of clothing does not require much technology and capital investment, and can be done as long as there are people.
In the future, the clothes produced by Ping An Bedding Factory will not only be supplied to the independent column, but also sold to the people in the base area.
Gao Da stood up and said to Li Dakang, "Captain Dakang, let's go see how the clothing factory is going now?"
"Okay, Commander."
Li Dakang took Gaoda out of the command center and walked towards the Ping An Bedding Factory outside Lijiazhuang.
After 10 minutes.
The two men came to the construction site of the clothing factory and saw hundreds of people busy building walls, with construction materials everywhere outside the site.
The entire bedding factory covers an area of more than 1 square meters and requires a lot of materials. Although it is only a small one-story factory building, it is a big project for that era.
"Minister Dakang, judging from the situation on site, it will be completed in two or three days."
Gundam turned and said to Li Dakang.
"Yes, Commander.
Once the bedding factory is completed, it can start production immediately. The workers have been recruited and are ready to start work at any time.”
Gundam nodded in satisfaction.
"Minister Dakang, thank you for your hard work during this period. The clothing factory is the most important factory in our base. We must protect it well."
"Yes, Commander."
The arrival of the two attracted the attention of Li Changlin at the construction site.
When he saw it was Gundam, he immediately trotted over.
"Commander Gao, welcome to the clothing factory."
"Village Chief Li, your Lijiazhuang construction team is great. In just a few days, you have almost completed the main project.
The independent column has many construction projects ahead of it, and I wonder if Village Chief Li is interested in taking them on."
Li Changlin was overjoyed when he heard Gaoda's words.
He was worried that he would have no work after the clothing factory was completed, but unexpectedly Gundam gave him a surprise.
"Thank you very much, Commander Gao, that the Lijiazhuang Construction Team is willing to take on these projects."
"Hahaha, then it's settled.
Minister Dakang, go back and do some statistics to see which construction projects we have that need to be started as soon as possible, and hand them over to the Lijiazhuang Construction Team for construction." Gao Da turned around and instructed Li Dakang.
"Yes, Commander, I will do the statistics when I get back."

After inspecting the garment factory, Gaoda took Li Dakang back to the headquarters.
Halfway through the journey, Gundam remembered about the farm.
"Minister Dakang, what is the current situation of the breeding farms in our base?"
Li Dakang thought about it and replied.
"Commander, we have now established four breeding farms in the base. We purchased a batch of more than 4 sows from a nearby village and more than 20 piglets from other places."
“In addition to pigs, we also raise a large herd of ducks and chickens.”
When Gundam heard that there were so many piglets in the farm, his eyes lit up.
"Minister Dakang, it's still early, let's go to the farm and take a look."
More than 10 minutes later.
Li Dakang brought Gundam to the breeding farm near Wild Wolf Mountain.
The farm was not built in Lijiazhuang, but in Yelang Mountain. The soldiers from the logistics department were responsible for feeding the pigs. This would be the most important source of meat for the independent column in the future, so Li Dakang attached great importance to the farm.
Gundam originally thought that the farm was going to be very large, but it turned out to be just a pigpen surrounded by wood and covered with a layer of thatch.
Well, for Gundam, who is used to seeing high-end pig farms in later generations, this farm is simply too simple.
He even suspected that a strong wind could blow over the pigpen.
Gundam walked into the pig farm and saw the soldiers feeding the piglets. A large group of piglets were crowded in front of the trough, smacking their food desperately.
This scene made Gundam hungry. These little piglets were so cute that Gundam couldn't help but think of roasting suckling pig.
No, no.
These piglets are all going to grow into big fat pigs.
Gundam turned and gave instructions to Li Dakang.
"Minister Dakang, these piglets are very important to the independent column. You must take good care of them.
Also, the sanitation in the pig pen must be cleaned every day, and it cannot be left until the next day,.........."
Li Dakang nodded.
"Yes, Commander. I will tell the soldiers about this."
After inspecting all places in the farm, Gundam left the farm with satisfaction.
He said to Li Dakang on the way back.
“Minister Dakang, I think the breeding farm can be further expanded. In the future, the independent column will develop breeding farms on a large scale.
Whether the soldiers can eat meat every day depends on whether Minister Dakang can give them enough support. "
Gaoda’s words made Li Dakang feel under great pressure.
"Commander, the logistics department will expand the scale of the farm as soon as possible."
Li Dakang decided to continue purchasing piglets and sows from nearby villages and towns in the future.
Fortunately, the logistics department had sufficient funds. The independent column had seized a lot of money in the previous battles. Whether it was buying pigs or raising pigs, it would cost a lot of money.
After the two returned to Lijiazhuang.
After Li Dakang said goodbye to Gao Da, he quickly returned to the logistics department to make arrangements for related matters.
Gundam went back to the headquarters and continued to sleep. He didn't have much to do now anyway, so he might as well take this opportunity to have a good sleep.
