The next move was the sugar mill machinery and various parts, which Gui Xianning personally directed.

Every part was packed tightly and personally escorted into a special greenhouse by Gui Xianning.

In the greenhouse, Hou Xianglin assigned the "most educated" Chinese retinue named Hu Sheng's private school to Gui Xianning as his entourage.

This person is originally from Lianzhou, western Guangdong, and was originally a secretary under the account of Chen Shangchuan, the chief soldier of Lianzhou, because of his greed for alcohol, he was not tolerated by his colleagues, and then he was recommended by someone to recruit for Pimont, Macau, and participated in the "Battle of Restoration", married the daughter of the local aborigines as a concubine, and then was recommended by the Duchess and the Governor of Xiaopi, and transferred to the command of Hou Xianglin, still a clerk.

The ancestors of the Hu family are also sugar farmers, the family business is to make a living from sugar, as a family male, is inherited from the ancestral sugar craft, Hou Xianglin knew, he entrusted him with the position of sugar factory manager, in addition to the position of the governor's office clerk, but also the sugar factory manager silver two two January, it is also considered to let him return to the bank.

Now Hu Sheng is leading twenty soldiers of the garrison and ten Turkish-looking Turk tribesmen who seem to be more clever to help Gui Xianning, including his own concubines, and now, his family is earning Australian silver to eat Australian food.

The greenhouse will also be home to the island's first makeshift sugar factory, which Hou Xianglin intends to produce from sugar cane grown on the island, and these men will become the first generation of sugar factory workers, including the 20 Japanese ronin soldiers.

This soldier was eliminated from military training, and he was also relatively short, and after consulting them, he sent them to the sugar factory to learn techniques from Gui Xianning.

Of course, the employees of these sugar factories, except for Hu Sheng, are all white dings, so for Gui Xianning, the training of production and technical personnel is very arduous.

It is precisely because of this that the chemical team gritted their teeth and sent Gui Xianning over, but it is expected that the time to stay here is only about two or three months, and Xiao Guizi's main task is to install equipment and train employees, and the group of employees working in the sugar factory must be trained into qualified workers before the sugarcane matures......

The entire set of equipment for the sugar factory was copied from the equipment at home, the materials were made of steel from the caves, and the power engines, two 20-kilowatt Stirling engines, were original from the old world.

Hou Xianglin was very moved by this, saying that the family is really willing to give the capital here, Gui Xianning told Hou Xianglin, in principle, the original goods of the old world will not leave Mornington Island, but there is really no way at the moment, now the mechanical group is very busy, especially once the iron sand ore is transported to the home, Huali their metallurgical equipment will start, with self-made steel, the equipment replication plan of each professional group will start on the road, plus the mechanical group is stepping up the production of Type 57 rifles and the Federation Type 1 manual ****, It's too busy to replicate the power machine for the sugar mill.

Gui Xianning also said that some people have now put forward opinions that when these old-world equipment can be gradually replaced by the materials and equipment of the time and space, these original goods will gradually be transported back to the cave and sealed - it is said that not only the two Stirling engines, but also the steel pontoon dock......

The equipment of the sugar factory is not too complicated, the main part is nothing more than some iron containers, the most complex equipment is the sugarcane press, and the rest is some twisted iron pipes, and the complete set of equipment only took two days from being transported into the greenhouse to being installed in place.

By the time the work was completed, four days had passed, and in these four days, five hundred tons of iron ore and four hundred tons of coal had been loaded into Nicole's hold, but at this time there were still about five hundred tons of iron ore and two hundred tons of coal waiting to be loaded on the ship, and there were an average of seven to eight hundred people on the dock every day, and it seemed that it would take at least four to five days to complete the loading.

In addition, there are various specialties of Timor Island waiting to be shipped, including large quantities of wood such as mahogany and rosewood, in addition to hundreds of tons of rice, several tons of coconut oil and coconut shell fiber, the latter of which are industrial raw materials needed by Boss Luo's machinery factory and Huasheng Textile.

So Hou Xianglin sent a telegram to the Red Mansion, asking his family to make lifting equipment such as manpower lifting poles for the wharf here, just like the kind of equipment on the Red Wharf.

Lao Ba immediately called back on behalf of the Supreme Executive Committee and said that it was not possible at present, but if the Nicole returned to bring back labor, the mechanical team could get some labor support, and in that case, it might be possible to build you one in a few months.

Obviously, at present, we can only rely on manpower, and slowly carry it to the dock on our shoulders and backs.

During this time, ** and Xiao Pingguo, a temporary military music instructor, also took some of the guards to support Gui Xianning, because he was the busiest.

The sugar factory is just the first project, and there is another construction work behind it - the bomb @ pharmaceutical factory.

According to Gui Xianning's work plan, the installation and commissioning of the sugar factory will be almost completed in about ten days, and the next step is the construction of the bomb @ pharmaceutical factory, and this task can only be Gui Xianning's.

Bullet @ Pharmaceutical Factory is a factory that produces reinforced black **, 57 rifle bullets and 57 grenade @ bullets.

Moreover, this paper-shell fixed ammunition is also a general-purpose ammunition for the "Federation One" **** that will be put into mass production.

Of course, the ** factory here is completely different from the factory at home in terms of technical content, and the ** factory in Xin'an City only produces the main body of paper shell ammunition - the paper shell ammunition charge column and the reinforced black ** particles of grenades @ bullets.

And the round-headed buckshot, grenade @ bullet fragmentation projectile, fuse and that important nitrification additive are all pre-produced by the family's bomb @ pharmaceutical factory, and then brought over by Nicole, even if it is said, the ** factory here is actually a primary processing and terminal assembly plant.

However, Gui Xianning told Hou Xianglin** The two of them are only temporary, and soon after, the round-headed lead bullet and the grenade @ bullet fragment projectile will also be handed over to this side to do, because its technical content is so low that there is almost none, and this side is completely qualified to do it by itself, of course, the core technology ---- nitrification additives must be provided by the Red Mansion.

Moreover, if the mechanical team is busy, it is likely that the core equipment of the brick and tile factory and the cement plant will also be copied and moved.

Gui Xianning said that after the victory in the defense battle in April, there is basically a consensus among everyone at present---- it seems that we are fully capable of gaining a firm foothold here, and in this case, we will definitely invest more and more resources in Sin'an City in the future."

In the ten days that the Nicole was berthed in Xin'an Port, the wharf has been in full swing with all kinds of materials, which has also attracted more and more people to come to earn silver, and the labor force is slightly more abundant than a few days ago, so the construction of the Governor's Palace, which was in a semi-stagnant state due to the lack of labor for a while, the construction of the deep-water wooden wharf at the mouth of the Xin'an River and the construction of urban roads have also begun to resume work.

During this period, Sun Lao also presided over a discussion on the current situation facing Xin'an City, especially the situation in terms of law and order.

The topic of discussion continues to be the hot issue of labor.

When the Nicole arrived here, although everyone saw a large group of people watching the crowd on the dock square, Hou Xianglin** said that the current flow of people was only half of that before the big battle at the beginning of the month.

Obviously, the bloody battle, while victorious, also greatly deepened the enmity of the nearby tribes against us, as evidenced by the recent recurrent incidents of law and order, especially looting near the jungle.

As a direct consequence, the number of indigenous people who come to work in Sinanseong has been halved. In addition, it is the busy farming season, the estates on the outskirts of Dili also lack labor, and the idle laborers in Dili also have nearby places to make a living, and many people are unwilling to risk the risk of coming to Sinancheng by land to work, all these factors add up to the shortage of labor in Sinan.

However, Hou Wei and the others said that through our efforts, the situation has now improved.

Therefore, at the request of everyone, Hou Wei and Wei respectively reported on the recent response measures.
