Kang Wang and Wang also have a daily job: every other time to go to various hydropower stations to check on duty, so the General Affairs Coordination Committee specially approved two Colt pythons for the two to take with them, because they had encountered crocodiles at the gate of the substation of the Manshui Dam, as well as big snakes, poisonous or not I don't know, but they really scared these two enough.

I heard that the two of them were referring to a device of electric fish, and wanted to make this thing to protect the power distribution room, or the power grid, but the project was stopped by the executive committee, on the grounds that it was too dangerous and afraid of hurting the innocent, after all, there are Han people and children on the island now, and it would be terrible if the electricity was turned on.

However, it is said that the brothers have changed the plan, it is a hand-held electric shock device, which can be used to electrocute crocodiles and snakes near the substation room at any time, and this device has heard that Xiao Fei has strong support and participation, but now I don't know if the development has been successful......

These days Wang Nabin and Zhou Yuye are surveying on the hillock near the red wharf, a few days later, the two of them will be supported by more than a dozen strong laborers, these people will help them clear out a few empty semi-underground warehouses as temporary textile workshops, and then with the help of the traversers, officially install a few hemp textile equipment, and finally they will also get more than a dozen fixed Han female workers, at that time, "Federal Huasheng Textile Co., Ltd." will be officially listed, Wang Erren will be cross-chaired and vice president respectively, The two are confidently moving towards their goal of becoming a textile tycoon in the new world.

There is also a green line on the chart that represents the work of Lao Zhu, whose Sydney Island ranch is now thriving.

A while ago, the main laborers on the ranch were only him and the old bus when he was free, and in addition, two afternoons a week, a few female teachers might bring their children to help.

When it comes to the work in the pasture, it is not light to say that it is light, and it is not heavy to say that it is heavy, but it is very tedious, and the light work includes picking up chickens, ducks, goose eggs and taking care of poultry from the field, and the heavier work includes cleaning the sheds of livestock and poultry, bathing the livestock with a long-handled brush, and of course, there are also relatively technical work, such as milking cows and goat's milk, as well as delivering animals under the guidance of Lao Zhu, and even doing some simple treatments and so on.

Nowadays, the livestock in the ranch are fenced open, so the children are very interested in such wild activities and often have fun in the pasture. Of course, over time, according to the law of diminishing marginal efficiency, this pleasure will gradually fade away.

Sure enough, now the ladies and children rarely come, but fortunately, now Lao Zhu will be supported by thirty female laborers.

These women are all selected healthy women, and they are no worse than the men in these jobs, so he is now ambitiously planning to open up another battlefield, the construction of the Saifukuma Ranch.

Saifu Island is separated from Mornington Island by a narrow channel, this waterway is called Saifu Strait by Lao Zhu, the narrowest point is less than 400 meters, and the widest point is only about 4 kilometers, so it is easy to reach the opposite shore by rowing a small boat.

The ranch project is already in the implementation phase, and in a few days, Hou Xianglin will temporarily send Lao Zhu a dozen male laborers to first build a wharf somewhere on the other side of the Saifu Strait, and then build various sheds on the island, which is expected to be completed within a month.

There is also a bold bold line on the work progress chart about the expansion of sugarcane acreage.

The previous 100 acres of sugarcane cultivation had been implemented before the sailing training, and now it has reached an important period, and it is expected that a total of more than 20 working days will be intermittently taken out to fertilize the sugarcane fields and loosen the soil for water supply and drainage, so a large number of Han labor has been invested here these days, and with the implementation of the new pioneer plan, the planting area of various cash crops and grain crops in Lao Wang will be doubled again.

To the delight of the traversers, these menial tasks such as burning wasteland, digging ditches, and leveling the land were finally completely free from being done by themselves.

Although the menial work on the farm and ranch is no longer done, the young people are still living a tense and fulfilling life, in addition to the construction of the Xiliu River Flood Dam and the Moon River Hydropower Station, Captain Gu also resumed the sailing training in shifts in time, so these young people not only have to go to the construction site to work, but also take turns to attend practical training on the Nicole and Pride, well, continue to take cultural classes in the evening......

In these days, Mr. Zhao and Boss Luo have been conducting research in the cave, and it is expected that in a month, all the science and engineering men will be "liberated" and join the research team in the cave.

At that time, the glassworks, bricks, tiles, cement factories, sugar factories, and mines will be completely handed over to Hou Xianglin, who will take 50 to 60 Han laborers to work in the factory.

The doctors, as always, were busy with all sorts of research in the cave and took turns to go to the construction site.

It is said that there has been significant progress in the research in the chemical laboratory, the specific situation is unknown, the doctors do not take the initiative to say, and everyone is busy without taking the initiative to ask, but one thing is certain, I heard that as long as the coal distillation equipment of the chemical group is installed in place, the doctors will immediately have a major breakthrough in drug development.

In addition to the Han women, the female students of Sunflower Girls' College will also be part-time laborers there, so the labor force in the vegetable garden is sufficient, and the output of various vegetables and fruits is expected to be greatly improved, which can fully meet the needs of the new population.

Of course, although the ladies of the Red Chamber have long been freed from these menial tasks, there is an even more nerve-wracking battlefield waiting for the ladies now: naturalization training.

They were determined to train the young women who had just escaped slavery status into qualified Australian citizens, to become "their own people".

Indeed, for the ladies of the Red Mansion, how to educate the "families" in Sunflower Girls' College is an unprecedented challenge.

The first thing to face is the language barrier.

When the ladies first came into contact with these women, probably only Liu Sanniang could understand a little simple Chinese, and the so-called Chinese here refers to the Mandarin spoken by the ladies in the Red Mansion, after all, Mandarin has the same origin as Nanjing Mandarin, but with some umlauts and tongue curls.

Therefore, if the other party speaks slower and adds some body language, Liu Sanniang can also understand a rough idea after careful listening.

Of course, relatively speaking, Xia Xiaoou and they are too unfamiliar with the Daming official dialect three hundred years ago, if it were not for Liu Sanniang's knowledge of some Chinese characters, plus the joint deconstruction and translation of Han Yu, a college student in the Chinese Department, and Zhu Beiguo, a doctor of history, Liu Sanniang's dialect with a serious tone of Nanjing, the ladies in the Red Chamber would basically not understand.

The other two Han girls, seventeen-year-old Xiaolu and eighteen-year-old tea girl, could only speak their dialect, not even the common Hokkien Hakka.

After many inquiries and research, including through the personal inquiries of Han Yu, Zhu Beiguo and others, plus the exchanges between Dr. Duan Leyue during the time on the Nicole, I finally basically figured out the origin of these two girls.

Xiao Lu is a native of Chaozhou, Guangdong, his father's surname is Zhang, originally in the Chaozhou capital city by the crafts of the leather craftsman to support the family, and later was requisitioned by the army that did not know where to come, and never returned, the pillar of the family has never been heard from, so the family road has been defeated.

Zhu Beiguo and others were very moved when they heard this, and they knew that the Chaoshan region of Guangdong Province had changed hands several times in recent years between the Zheng family in Jinxia and the Qing Dynasty, and it was common for family members to be separated during wars.

Xiao Lu, who had no livelihood, was later sold by traffickers to Guangzhou City, where he was trafficked to Nanyang until he was bought by Australians.

Another girl named Tea Girl, eighteen years old this year, from the mountainous areas of Fujian, probably because she was born in a tea farmer's family, her name is Tea Girl, because she was very young and was adopted as a child daughter-in-law by a wealthy man's family, except for her father's surname Li, the tea girl only has a vague memory of the original family.

However, because of the war, the rich man's family also fell, and he was eventually sold to the human market, because of his mediocre appearance, he was later resold to maritime merchants, and later, he was sold to the distant country of Sulu until he was bought by the traverser.
