Chapter 176: News of the Pigeon

Cao Deshun said: "Brother Liang Xian, we still have a lot of things to deal with at home, we can't wait here, we have to go back to Jinling as soon as possible." ”

Liang Daguan was very unimpressed, "Brother Cao, money can never be earned." You and Brother Wang go back, I have a rare opportunity this time, I must go and see for myself what whaling is all about. If I don't go this time, I may not have a chance in the future, and maybe I will regret it for the rest of my life. ”

"What about the establishment of a cooperative shop?" Cao Deshun asked.

"In this way, I will write a letter, you can take it back and give it to my second brother, so that he can fully cooperate with Brother Cao. Is that okay? ”

Cao Deshun had no choice but to agree.

As it got dark, many bonfires were lit on the beach, and the women set up cauldrons and began to cook, stewing whale meat.

Du Dalei sniffled and said to the three of them, "You haven't eaten whale meat, have you?" ”

The three of them all shook their heads, and Du Dalei pointed to the cauldron, "The whale meat will be cooked in a while, let's eat it together, and let you taste the taste of fresh whale meat." ”

Cui Daoshu also said: "Three brothers, this is a rare thing. Whale meat is not something you can eat casually, you must try it. ”

All three agreed to come down and waited quietly. After about half an hour, Du Dalei came over with a few sailors and gave each of them two bowls. One bowl is multigrain rice, and the other bowl is fragrant whale meat.

Du Dalei helped them put the bowl on top of a big stone, and also carried a bowl of whale meat, and ate it with everyone.

The three of them chewed the whale meat slowly, and felt that it tasted very good.

"It's kind of like beef." Liang Daguan said.

"But the meat is a little more delicate than beef." Wang Mingjun is also a senior foodie.

Everyone ate and chatted, and soon killed several large bowls of whale meat.

Cui Daoshu asked the three of them to go back to rest, and Du Dalei said goodbye to them with a smile and continued to work.

Cui Daoshu returned to the camp with the three of them, and after sending them to the small building, he walked to the conference room.

Entering the conference room, the brothers had been waiting for a long time.

Cui Daoshu sat down, recounted the three-day negotiation process in detail, and then took out the agreement and let the brothers watch.

Everyone gathered together, watched carefully, and asked Cui Daoshu a few questions from time to time, and Cui Daoshu answered them one by one.

After more than an hour, the brothers figured out what the agreement was about.

Wei Hongye said with a smile: "Old Seven, the results are huge. We have successfully sold our products to inland areas and will definitely make a lot of money. ”

Zhao Zizhong continued: "Not only to make money, but also to extend our tentacles to the vast continent, which is a great achievement. ”

Na Zhe said thoughtfully: "Brothers, I have an idea, let's discuss it when I say it." I think it's time to form an intelligence agency, and with the trade routes clearing, we can send some people to join the joint shops and start gathering intelligence. What do you guys think? ”

An Dalang asked curiously, "Intelligence agency? What does it do? ”

Boris explained: "It is to send some spies, using the identity of shop managers and men as a disguise, to go to the mainland to find out the news. ”

"Oh, I see!" An Dalang understood.

"Then we don't have the talent for this right now!" Wei Hongye sighed.

Na Zhe thought about it and said: "Old Wei, now we will select some clever people from the island, open a crash training course, teach them some knowledge of intelligence gathering as soon as possible, and send them out to perform simple tasks first." Let's slowly improve their abilities in the future. ”

Zhao Zi nodded emphatically, "This method is good, but who will be the instructor?" ”

Wei Hongye smiled, "Lao Zhao, each of us has watched a lot of spy war dramas, everyone brainstormed, first put together a set of teaching materials, and then everyone went to give a lesson to the selected intelligence officers." Let's try it first. ”

An Dalang didn't understand again, "What war drama are you talking about?" What is it? ”

Everyone realized that they had slipped their mouths, looked at each other, and didn't know how to answer.

Na Zhe had no choice but to start editing: "Da Lang, we are talking about 'spy war drama', which is a kind of hundred operas that perform singing and dancing." It is very popular in the West, many people like to watch it, and we have seen it many times before. ”

"Then what does this 'spy war drama' have to do with spies?"

"Da Lang, there are often plots in spy war dramas that depict excellent spies asking for information, and many people love to watch this kind of tense and exciting performance."

An Dalang didn't seem to understand, so he didn't ask.

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief, and finally dealt with it.

Cui Daoshu suddenly remembered something, and immediately said: "There is good news, I sent someone to find the carrier pigeon. ”

The brothers were very excited, and Na Zhe hurriedly said, "Did you really find it?" That's great, I've loved playing with pigeons since I was a kid, and this time I'm going to get a few to play with. ”

Cui Daoshu continued: "One of my family's caravans met a man near Suzhou, who is in his fifties this year. This man is a man who is obsessed with keeping pigeons, he is alone and devotes all his energy to raising pigeons. He has a few hundred pigeons and is well known locally. ”

"Will he come here, then?"

"My housekeeper promised him a good salary and would fund him to keep a lot of pigeons, and he agreed. It is estimated that in another month or so, the caravan will be able to bring back both people and pigeons. ”

Zhao Zi thought about it again, "If we can successfully breed carrier pigeons, it will be much more convenient to transmit information in the future." When the pigeons arrived, let Cui Zhaorong be responsible and fully support the pigeon. If you want people to give people and things to things, you must breed carrier pigeons as soon as possible. ”

Cui Daoshu asked, "Brother, how are the new refugees?" Did you really kill a few people that day? ”

Zhao Zizhong said with a solemn face: "Yes, that day, there were some homeless people who wanted to make trouble and instigated everyone to riot, but they were suppressed by us with escort bullets. We caught seven thugs, who were definitely not good people, and in order to deter most of the homeless, we killed them. The body was then hung on a tree so that other displaced people could see it every day. Now the displaced people are very honest, and they cut down trees every day, build shacks, and build wooden houses, and they will soon be able to solve the problem of housing. ”

Wei Hongye advised: "Don't let them be idle, and when the wooden houses are built, let them go to repair the salt pans and roads." Infrastructure construction requires a lot of manpower. ”

Boris said: "It is also possible to pick out craftsmen and skilled people from among these people and assign them to various workshops. ”

Zhao Zi thought about it and said, "If you select some more people to join the escort team, let's choose two hundred people first." Da Lang, you will plan with Fan Jinchun tomorrow and implement it as soon as possible. ”

An Dalang agreed, and the brothers chatted for a while, and then they all went back to sleep.

The next morning, Cao Deshun and Wang Mingjun found Cui Daoshu and said that they wanted to go back as soon as possible and began to form a joint shop.

Cui Daoshu had no opinion, so he arranged for people to load sea salt into the boat they brought, and prepared a small amount of soap, candles, lamp oil, perfume, and toilet water, and asked them to go back and give them to some dignitaries and wealthy businessmen, so as to open up the sales of these goods.

Cui Daoshu said to Cao Deshun: "Brother Cao, you must send these things to the palace and present them to Your Majesty and the Empress." If they use it and think it's good, you can spread the word in Jinling and say that the queen likes the goods very much. The rich people of Jinling will definitely pursue these things, and then we will make a lot of money. ”

Cao Deshun said happily: "Don't worry, Brother Xian, I will definitely do this and send these things to the palace as soon as possible." ”

Two days later, Cao Deshun and Wang Mingjun boarded a ship and left Qishan Island. Liang Daguan stayed, waiting to go to sea with Du Dalei to go whaling.

Wei Hongye asked the craftsmen to make dozens of soccer balls, and then sent the soccer balls to the school, and went to the school every afternoon to teach the children to play football. ”

Na Zhe went crazy with him, and led a group of children to set up the "Barcelona" football team, ready to fight against Wei Hongye.

Wei Hongye did not show weakness and also formed a team called "Real Madrid". He often plays games with Barcelona and is known as the "national derby".

An Dalang and Fan Jinchun selected 200 new team members, and they will be tortured to * tomorrow, and they will go back to the dormitory and fall asleep.

Zhao Zizhong and Boris divided the nearly 1,500 displaced people into three parts, and set up a camp in the north, east and south of the island. Then together with Hu Shuiyang, he organized the displaced people to start building roads.

The weather is getting hotter and hotter, and the displaced people are working hard in the scorching heat. Zhao Zizhong asked people to set up a cauldron next to the construction site, added some medicinal herbs to the pot, and began to cook medicinal soup.

After the soup was cooked, some sea salt was added to the soup to replenish the salt for the displaced people.

But tomorrow someone will suffer from heat stroke, and the two Lang Zhong on the island will be busy enough.

After several days of hard work, Du Dalei finally finished dealing with the two big whales. Liang Daguan has been pestering him, never leaving an inch, always asking him when he will go to sea.

Du Da Lei's head was as big as a fight, and he couldn't wait to throw Liang Daguan into the sea.

Liang Daguan's persistent nagging finally defeated Du Dalei, and after Du Dalei consulted Zhao Zizhong, he decided to go to sea tomorrow to go whaling.

After Liang Daguan learned the news, he jumped with joy. In the evening, he held a banquet in the hotel to thank the seven brothers.

The next morning, Du Dalei took the high-spirited Liang Daguan to the sea.

At noon, Guo Jintao found Zhao Zizhong, who was training the escort team, and said that he wanted to discuss something with him.

Zhao Zizhong led him to the woods, took off his sweat-soaked coat, and sat down next to a big tree.

"Lao Guo, if you have anything to say, why is it mysterious?"

Guo Jintao also sat down, wiped the sweat on his face, and said, "Mr. Zhao, I have been patrolling back and forth between the route from Mingzhou to Qishan Island these days, and I have discovered a very important thing. ”
