Chapter 470: The Inheritors

Accompanied by the Yu Linglong sisters and the two uncles, after a different New Year, Shi Lei's life is on the right track. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 infoDuring this time, he still has to work on his big plans, especially to get all the preparations here before his term is completed, although it seems that there is still more than a year to go, in fact, the time is still a little tight.

Of course, it is also necessary to take as much time as possible to accompany the two pregnant women of the Yu Linglong sisters, but this will not delay Shi Lei's work. The matter of training government soldiers, with the help of those subordinates who have been in charge before, Shi Lei only needs to go over from time to time to show his existence and mobilize everyone's enthusiasm.

However, for the transformation of the last two sea ships, Shi Lei is more concerned. With those star iron raw materials, Uncle Blacksmith will start manufacturing those weapons used on the ship in the future, and the rest of the work has already been done, just wait for the weapons to arrive, and all the assembly work can be completed.

This didn't take much time in total, and then it was the recruitment work that Shi Lei was most concerned about. In Guangzhou, it was vigorously publicized and prepared to recruit a group of capable sailors.

Although there are not many merchant ships in Guangzhou that organize their own sailing, there are always some experienced seafarers available, and some simply work for the merchants, or even if they have their own fishing boats, they can always find some qualified people.

Moreover, the reason why Shi Lei appeared at the recruitment site, just like the last time the tulou was built, was to come to those dark piles arranged by his own family.

As a result, I don't know whether to rejoice or feel unlucky, but most of these candidates who have worked as sailors are old hands of their own families.

They all had a face full of vicissitudes, and they didn't know whether it was the hardships of life that made them suffer from the wind and frost early, or the life of seamen, which left too many traces of time on their faces, and they all looked older than their actual age.

But what really made Shi Lei feel sad was that the two uncles told him that there should be a lot more people in Guangzhou than now.

Those who didn't come, I don't know if they didn't want to put this fate in the hands of others and impose it on their descendants, or because they were buried in the wind and waves early, and they didn't even have a descendant, so they disappeared silently into the world.

Shi Lei will definitely not forcibly involve their descendants anymore, and it is good to let them live a life that truly belongs to them, and maybe when the time is right, he can also give them some help, thank their fathers for their silent dedication.

And for those who have broken the inheritance, Shi Lei can only send a stick of incense to his heart, and put their names and other old people who have sacrificed their lives for their families in the most important position in the family to pay tribute. We should also put it in our hearts, remember their contributions, and always remind ourselves that there is such a heavy responsibility, and he, the head of the family, has the responsibility and obligation to bring these people a better life.

These people who have experience as seafarers are undoubtedly a valuable resource, except for a few who have a bad reputation or are really unsuitable for physical condition, and basically recruit them, even if this is still unable to meet the minimum needs of the fleet.

Even if there were slave sailors who had become veterans, they scattered among the ships, which was barely enough to keep the ships running. If there is an accident or encounters with pirates, this will definitely not be enough.

In desperation, I had to recruit some ordinary fishermen who had experience in going to sea by themselves, but these people needed to be carefully selected. After all, Guangzhou is a city close to the sea, and there are definitely not a few people who go down to catch fish by themselves, but it is difficult to say whether they can have the skills suitable for sea vessels, and they must be carefully selected.

In addition, their background should also be relatively clear, the spies who are infiltrated by other people's families in the province, even if the real core secrets are only in the hands of those old people who really belong to the Shi family, and they have to guard against such annoying things as spies.

After finally getting this job done, Shi Lei naturally did not hesitate to first transform all those old looking family members. They are all the most valuable treasures of his family, and Shi Lei even guesses that among these people, there may be pioneers who have been to the American continent, or how did his potatoes and peppers come from.

The origin of these manpower, and Shi Lei's speculation, have actually been bothering him all along, but several uncles haven't said it yet, so naturally there should be their reasons. Maybe knowing these things too early is not necessarily a good thing for him, at least at his current level of mind, it is really not suitable to know too many secrets.

He also lacks the confidence and means not to be afraid of other people's temptations, and at this time, he really doesn't know that it is safer, and it is not easy to reveal some clues from him. He just needs to work hard to strengthen himself and bring these people a bright future.

The manpower of the Cheng family's first station has also arrived in Guangzhou, and the manpower of several other companies will also arrive one after another. They are all observers, responsible for following the Shi family's fleet to inspect the situation of the route, and by the way, they also study the details around Yinshan in more detail, so as to make advance preparations for the next real start of putting personnel.

When the time comes, a large group of people, it does not mean that they will not be left to care if they are thrown over there, whether there is food or drink around, whether they can meet the basic needs, if someone is red-eyed, to what extent the first batch of people can resist, these are all calculated first, and they cannot be blindly brutal. After all, they don't go to do a ticket and go to be robbers.

In addition, they also want to follow, develop more of the market of the country, but also find more goods that can be traded, but also take into account the market capacity over there, and the province's own family members have to compete with each other, which is a bit unbeautiful.

There are also some real professionals, geologists like Shen Xing, who need to be responsible for the most important part to see if this vein is really as high quality, high yield, easy to excavate as Shi Lei said, and it is best to determine the location of the first wave of excavation at the same time. We must ensure that there is a good harvest on this first trip, so that we can get as many benefits as possible before this benefit is taken by Datang as a whole.

In short, the task of this group of people is still quite heavy, and the only people who can really reach this group of people are those who can trust themselves.

It's just that the reformed manpower on these ships is a formidable force, and hundreds of seafarers who are full of physical fitness and are not short of force are thrown to the place of the Japanese country, which is definitely a force enough to attack the city, and it should not be a problem to retreat with all their bodies.

This matter was arranged, Shi Lei temporarily relaxed, and the plan to fully enter the mining of ore in the Wa Kingdom was to be carried out step by step, this kind of huge matter, how could it be done so quickly, and within a year, Shi Lei was already very satisfied.

Before he leaves office, he can see the real benefits of this matter, which is Shi Lei's biggest goal, and even the successor of his position has begun to look for it, and it is still possible for several families to work together to push a junior to come here, this kind of interest must be able to hold on for a while, just keep it for as much as possible.

Putting down this biggest matter, Shi Lei is not idle, if he has a little free time, he will start preparing for the water park he envisioned.

It will be a place that will be remembered, a magical place where everyone who comes will experience a unique and happy journey. (To be continued.) )
