    Late at night on April 26th, in Mobei County on the border of China and Jiangsu, the train station that should have been silent turned out to be extremely lively at this time. The few sections of railway track were covered with long freight trains.  It¡¯s so long and endless, with no edge in sight.  The low-wattage light bulbs in the train station were all replaced by super-powerful headlights, making the entire train station even more dazzling than during the day.

    People coming and going, in this cold weather, just put on a thin piece of clothing, and most of them were still sweating profusely.

    In front of a long locomotive, a group of people were busy adding coal and water. A worker asked the driver sitting inside the locomotive: "I mean, Lao Wu, this place has never been so noisy in a while. This train is so busy."  What exactly is packed inside? Not only your place, but also other trains are packed full of stuff. Are all these things going there? Why can¡¯t they be put there during the day? Do they have to be there?  Making a lot of noise at night.¡±

    When the driver named Lao Wu heard this question, he looked around, and then said: "I don't know what is in their cars, but what I have here is all clothes and a load of leather."  The whole car was packed with clothes, so densely packed that I couldn¡¯t count them. As for other things, I really don¡¯t know. It¡¯s not like you don¡¯t know. I was originally running on another route, but the higher-ups came down to notify me and called me.  Temporarily transferred here, I heard it was a notification from the top, what exactly do you want to do, how can a little person like me know anything?

    ¡°Don¡¯t ask too much, no one will tell you if you ask too much.  Anyway, this is considered overtime work, so if you have money, you can do it.  I would rather make two more trips. Nowadays, nothing can be done without money. Although we are considered as iron rice bowls, compared with those self-employed people, our little money is enough to live on, and we don¡¯t even have to think about nourishment.  "

    Hearing what Lao Wu said, the worker's eyes lit up and he asked mysteriously: "We have an old relationship. They give me 20 yuan for a day of work. You, a train driver, must pay that amount for a day of work."  It¡¯s not much less, but how much is it?¡±

    ¡°Not much, just a little more than you. Driving a train is considered a high-level job, so it¡¯s a lot more than you.

    Such an answer from Lao Wu obviously could not satisfy the worker, so he said with some dissatisfaction: "I said, Lao Wu, is this wrong with you? What is our relationship? As for being so strict? Why don't you just do more?"  Is it money, so it won¡¯t be a problem?¡±

    "Okay, I said, but you can't spread it anymore, the impact will be bad, that's all." Lao Wu stretched out a palm and made a gesture.

    "Oh, that's a lot, ten sheets of unity. This is just one day's salary, and it's the nourishment of you driving the train. If you do this for ten days and a half in a row, wouldn't it be more than your salary?  It's much higher. From the looks of it, it seems like these things don't belong to the country, right? If they did, how could you take such advantage?" the worker said with some sourness.

    "Don't talk too much. I took the money, but it's not like you don't have it. Don't act like this. You are a little less than me, but at least you are better than people in other bureaus, right? In other places, there is no  With such a job, you are jealous of me, and others are jealous of you? Don¡¯t be dissatisfied, and don¡¯t talk nonsense when you shouldn¡¯t. Who can make such a big fuss, can it be an ordinary person? The relationship must be great, otherwise it wouldn¡¯t be possible  It will be the order from the top." Lao Wu said as if he understood me very well.

    Hearing Lao Wu¡¯s reminder, the talkative guy immediately shut his mouth.  People like them who are engaged in railways have far less freedom than those in local state-owned enterprises. They can also do things like layoffs. But for people who work in railways, even if they are transferred, it is internal transfer.  It's different from the outside world, so the railway bureau's management capabilities are stronger than those at the local level.

    ¡°If he really chews his tongue on such a matter, and someone above him gives an order, he will have to walk around without food. Not to mention making money, whether he can eat or not will still be a problem.

    This conversation between the worker and the train driver can only be regarded as a microcosm of the entire Mobei Railway Station.  Even though they had made certain preparations for the sudden big move, they realized that their previous preparations were still not sufficient until the incident actually happened.

    Since the past few days, trains with various brands have been arriving at this forgotten small station in Mobei. After a few days, the originally relatively small railway station was suddenly filled with trains coming from north to south.  All kinds of freight trains are full. Although the situation is slightly better now, some locomotives that have completed their tasks have left, but even so, in the past month or two at this small Mobei station, passenger trains have still been busy.  It's out of service.  Those who want to go to Mobei must either take a car or walk on their own and take the train.It is basically impossible to reach Mobei.

    In the small office building of Mobei Railway Station, Liu Dong and others have been staying in a relatively clean office.  Among these people, not only Zhou Qingfu, but also Levget came.

    Seeing the busy situation outside, Levget said with some concern: "Boss, this train station is too small, and the throughput cannot meet the requirements at all. Why didn't you choose a larger train station in the first place?  What? That way at least there won¡¯t be too many problems with freight circulation.¡±

    "Big station? If I choose a big station, will it be like this? You know, ours can be regarded as smuggling. Although the upper-level people on both sides know it, it is not a legitimate trade of goods after all. If it is a big station, it needs to be settled.  There are many problems, especially in busy times like now, it is simply impossible to keep secrets on a large website. Where can a small website be so convenient?

    ¡°Besides, at the small Soviet station across from Mobei, all the personnel you control are from the military and have nothing to do with the local government.  No outsiders will disturb you.  If we change the big station, whether it¡¯s our side or yours, the local people will get involved.  You also know that people at the local level are the most difficult to deal with. Compared with the efficiency of soldiers, they are really not good candidates for cooperation.  Liu Dong said with a frown.

    "Boss, after these trains pass by, they will have to change tracks. The containers you are using now will be useless over there. There are so many goods this time, and I am afraid that the tracks will be changed and containers will be changed.  There are not enough personnel and machines, which will waste everyone's time. Boss, you must think more about this problem." Levget added.

    "This is a problem. It's easier for our company to handle it here. At worst, we can donate some lifting machinery to Mobei Railway Station, and then expand the site of Mobei Railway Station. Although it will cause some waste,  But when the transaction volume increases in the future, we can make a lot of money. On my side, Huanya is willing to invest, but on your side, I don¡¯t know if your people are willing to invest." Liu Dong said helplessly  arrive.

    It is not difficult for Liu Dong to expand a small station like Mobei. Anyway, among the domestic high-level officials, there is basically no one who doesn¡¯t know what it is used for, although the official will not admit it.  There are so many official personnel involved in this operation of Liu Dong Huanya. Even if this matter is smuggling, Liu Dong believes that no one will be crazy enough to take care of the affairs here.

    As long as the big project of Huanya has not disappeared, then the railway station in Mobei can definitely be changed however Liu Dong wants.  If in ten or twenty years you want to renovate a railway station from a small station to a large station, the cost will definitely not be low.

    But now, even though the raw material market has risen in the past two years, coupled with the rise in labor costs, it is still drizzle for Huanya.  Besides, the things that Huanya wants to get are only things that are convenient for freight at Mobei Railway Station, without any other problems.  Unlike some train stations in later generations, they were renovated, but their freight capacity may not be enhanced, but things like office building waiting halls will definitely cost as much as they cost, and they will be as lavish as they want.  Generous.

    For such a situation, it is definitely impossible to happen at Mobei Railway Station.  At most, Huanya will expand some railway tracks, and then bring some heavy machinery and equipment to Mobei. As for things like office buildings, Huanya will definitely not pay a penny, and at most they will be incidental.  If we do this, we will definitely not turn these things that have nothing to do with transportation capacity into key reconstruction projects.

    The reconstruction of Mobei is not a difficult matter for Huanya. The difficult thing is whether the small Soviet station opposite Mobei can also be reconstructed. That is the key issue that plagues the transportation capacity.

    Things in the Soviet Union are different from those in China. Although Liu Dong has a very important identity and a high status there, there are even a group of Soviet people who work with Liu Dong to make a living.  But things like train stations are not ordinary things.

    No matter how rich Liu Dong is, he still has to keep certain taboos in mind.  Therefore, the transportation problem of the small station on the Soviet side can only be solved by the Soviets themselves.  Liu Dong must not interfere in anything, even just giving money.  Of course, even if Liu Dong gives a little money, it won't make much difference. After all, rebuilding a train station, even in this era, is an investment of tens of millions of yuan.

    For those Soviet poor people, this is definitely not a small sum of money.  Especially when they don't have any money, they still have to pay more money to build a train station. For them, such a thing is a bit unbelievable.
