As a result of the assessment, fifteen or sixteen men with shipbuilding skills, including the patriarch, remained in Bopu as shipyard workers and moved into the newly built village of Baitu with their families, and these shipyard workers could not live together in the name of a large family. ()

Wu De also further improved the regulations, in each household, a maximum of three generations are allowed, the first two generations are allowed to have a couple each, and the third generation is allowed to set up a separate door if the marriage is completed. Married brothers are prohibited from remaining in the same household.

The separated households are then mixed into each standard house, and each standard house is allowed to have a maximum of two families from the same family.

The rest of the Lin family were all relocated to Bopu, separated according to the same method, and then separated in the residential area of Bairen Commune for use as basic labor. In this way, the Lin family, one of the two ruling families in Baitu Village, was demolished, and the patriarch Lin Xianming also lost his original prestige, and now he can only go to work in the shipyard - each of them owes sixty taels of silver to the purchase price of the crossing group. In fact, many of the Lin family's clansmen could afford this money, but none of them dared to get rich, for fear of robbing it to this group of thieves.

If the older Lin family members had seen the tyranny of the government and were so subservient to the Lingao Power Crossing Group, then the young children who grew up in Baitu Village, a three-way area, would have quite objections. Especially those children of the close branches, who have been in the upper echelons of the village since childhood, are even more obsessed with the loss of prestige. The most unacceptable thing is: the last side branch who usually has a low status in the clan, because he is skilled in work, has become an employee of the shipyard.

Lin Gong naturally did not have a chance to be a worker. ranks, but he has not yet married, and can continue to stay under his father's household registration, but his identity has become a "member" who must work every day to do odd jobs to earn work.

Employees get monthly money and have high incomes; Members. It's just that I work hard every day, and I do hard and tiring work. He couldn't stand this alone.

There's a guy who's been hanging out with him all the time. 's cousin spoke: "Big brother, what do you say - what does the eldest uncle think?" Our Lin family is just scattered?! ”

"What else?" A wilted, squatching guy on the ground said, "People. The family is very capable—"

Lin Gong's brother Lin Gongxun kicked him violently: "You Lin family. The scum! Bag goods! I doubt that you are the seed of the Lin family! Can you say that? ”

"But—" The guy who was beaten seemed to be an angry bag, and he didn't dare to fight back. Resist, just muttered, "It's not that you can't beat them"

"Fuck your ass, he. Aren't they just better weapons and poles? Playing hand-to-hand combat, this kind of B goods Lao Tzu beat him seven or eight by one! The guy who beat the man said menacingly, glancing at the sentry not far away. The crowd seemed to be particularly unhappy, and when they saw that the sentries and short-haired "cadres" around them did not interfere, they scolded even more.

"That's it, the eldest brother and the second brother don't have a lot of kung fu."

"Kao firearms are not heroes!"

"Don't use firearms, fight one-on-one, and don't beat them all over the ground to find teeth!"

"One dozen and one I still think of bullying them, too many to say, one dozen three."

"Look at their shabby appearance, the clothes they wear can't even cover their buttocks."

"All the heroes of our Lin family are bloody!"

"The Lin family doesn't have you as a bastard! It must be a wild seed! ”

……

It was quiet at first, but it got louder and louder. It seemed that the anger of everyone was vented on this unlucky man, and foul language mixed with fists and kicks fell on him, and this person hurriedly crawled "Get out".

At this time, one of Lin Gong's nephews named Lin Guangding squeezed over and whispered: "Uncle Gonggong, tell everyone to stop scolding, beware that the wall has ears." ”

These words were originally kind, and Lin Gonggong scolded: "You are also a decrepit boy!" There is no egg in the goods. Ah Ao Tsai are all overseas barbarians, so I scolded them to their faces, and they didn't understand. Saying loudly in Hokkien dialect, he said seven or eight foul words to a "real man" in the distance, and sure enough, the other party looked at him without any reaction, and the children of the Lin family around him cheered.

"Good! Brother Gong is really amazing! ”

"Ah Ao Tsai is a decrepit boy! I don't dare to put a fart. ”

"Ah Ao Zai doesn't dare to offend our Lin family, the shipbuilding is Kao Uncle Ancestor!"

Lin Guangding also had to advise: "This, Uncle Gong, there is our place among the long-term workers who work for them—"

"Hmph, what are a few Han Jian afraid of?" Lin Gonglao suddenly felt that he was very strong and was not afraid of anything, "I will pinch them to death with a finger stretched out." ”

was bragging, Lin Xianming rushed over and scolded in a low voice: "You are dead!" What kind of farts are you farting? He glanced around cautiously, "Why do you think our Lin family hasn't been destroyed?" ”

Lin Gongzhi was obviously not convinced, and wanted to raise his voice and say something.

"Don't say it, it's all scattered and go back!" As he spoke, he dragged his son to a deserted place.

"Don't say such boundless big words in the future!" Lin Xianming whispered, "This gang of thieves is amazing. ”

"Dad, sooner or later, they will be destroyed by the surrounding sea lords, even if the sea lords can't destroy them, we will send someone to report to the official, and the court will also suppress them, as soon as the soldiers arrive-"

Saying that, he received a heavy blow on his head: "The imperial court? The court is doing our! Without the imperial court, we are better haode to live in Fujian guarding the ancestral tomb! Lin Xianming said and slowed down his tone, "...... The shorthairs are also passable, give a house to live in, pay wages, and don't want us to work in vain. We, the little people, whoever becomes the emperor will not have to pay taxes on food, clothing, and housing. Don't give me trouble! ”

Lin Xianming saw that his son finally stopped talking, so he said, "How old are you?" I don't know how thick the sky is! What is a good thing about the government? You will work for me honestly, and when the time comes, I will naturally want to get you to work as a worker in the shipyard. Shorthair still values your father. ”

Lin Gonglao muttered a few words, he and his father had different ideas. Lin Xianming only wants to take his clan to live peacefully in troubled times. Lin Gongji still has the power desire of young people, and he never forgets that the Lin family has been a local tyrant in Baitu for many years, and he is the son of the village chief.

In contrast, the rebound of the Lu family is much smaller, one is that they have a smaller population, and Lu Youtian is a person who knows the current affairs very well, and he has no doubts about the policy of the traverser, so he immediately let the clansmen scatter and register, and even his son Lu Shouyong is not married and registered a separate household. His request was very simple, to keep his son, a blacksmith who had not completed his master, so that he could continue to teach him the craft - he saw the fate of the Lin family, and all the children of the Lin family who were not skilled in the craft were counted as basic laborers. It seems that there is no craftsmanship here in Shorthair, and you will definitely be deflated.

Because the men of the Lu family are blacksmiths, after the assessment, they were divided into two batches according to the level of jishu, most of them were assigned to Bairencheng and became employees of the machinery factory, and a few stayed in Bopu as ironworkers in the shipyard. Because of Lu Youtian's acquaintance, there are relatively few people in the Lu family, so no children have been beaten into the basic labor force to earn work points, and those whose skills are too poor to be workers have entered the apprenticeship team, divided into shipyards and machinery factories, and learned to be fitters and metallurgists in the new era.

Lu Youtian stayed in Bopu and became the foreman of the ironwork workshop of the shipyard. Shipbuilding requires a large number of iron parts, because Wen Deji has not yet been able to figure out all the specific processes of European-style shipbuilding, and many of the jishu and techniques of Chinese-style shipbuilding are still continued when shipbuilding.

A few years ago, Wen Desi led several mechanical professionals to draw a complete line drawing and structural drawings of various parts of the ship, although it was very rough, at least it could be regarded as a basis for shipbuilding.

Shortly after the first day of the new year, the shipyard placed the keel under the direction of Wen Desi. The keel was placed on the keel pier of the dock, and the bow and stern pillars were embedded at both ends of the keel, which was a very heavy task, which was completed with the help of the construction company's steam crane, and it was then that Wendeji realized that he had not installed hoisting equipment for the dock, and he suddenly built several earthen poles.

The bottom ribs are then placed transversely on the keel, and the inner keel is placed on the bottom ribs along the keel, and the inner keel, the bottom rib and the keel are bolted to each other. The bottom ribs are straight except for the ends. The timber at both ends begins to bend, that is, xiangshang upturned. The compound ribs are tightly attached to the bottom ribs. These are curved or curved ribs that make up the curved edges of a sailboat. It took Wu Kuangming a lot of brain cells to bend the ship according to the angle required by the design without harming its strength, but thanks to the boiler, this process became fast and effective.

All the ribs are mounted very compactly, and they are double-layered in the middle part of the boat and at the place of the KAO near mast - this is where there is a huge strain force. Heavy thick pressure plates are arranged horizontally on the inside of the ribs, supporting the ends of the deck beams. The mast holes have reinforcement plates, made of sturdy sandalwood, which are vertically chased between the deck beams and fastened with bolts to support the mast, while the root of the mast is erected above the inner keel. This frame is further clamped with the vertical ribs behind the girder beams, the piercing ribs and the horizontal ribs behind the beams.

During the construction process, scaffolding was erected around the hull to facilitate the construction of the boatman, the plates of the shell were bolted to the ribs of the ship, and in order to prevent water leakage, a large amount of kapok was used as a filling - this natural fiber hardly enters the water and has a great buoyancy. All seams are sealed with a mixture of tung oil, hemp silk and oyster shell ash in the Chinese twist seam method. The inner and outer hulls of the ship were also coated with a layer of wood tar.

The internal structure of the ship was modeled after that of the Chinese ship, with watertight compartments - since the ship was not made as a battleship and was not intended to be equipped with many guns, an all-through lower deck was not necessary.
