Chapter 209: Pirate Trails

Soon, a group of people arrived at the shipyard, now the shipyard is much more lively than before, since the establishment, the shipyard has not stopped recruiting shipbuilders everywhere, now the Jiangnan coast has basically not been able to find a shipwright, either in the sea merchant or was taken to Shandong, Tianjin shipyard.

It cost a lot of money, but it was worth it. Zhu Houwei couldn't help but sigh that if he hadn't gathered them together and put the technology into use, he didn't know how many unique technologies would have been drowned in the long river of history.

However, the problem also comes, these craftsmen are not like the miserable Longjiang Shipyard before, they can barely live in Jiangnan, but the treatment here is much better, and they also have a royal background, so they came here. There is a unique technology, but it still holds the psychology of passing on the son but not the daughter, and it is also very secret from the colleagues in the shipyard. A few days ago, the technology of several craftsmen was cracked out by the master of the shipyard and became a general technology in the shipyard. But this did not fundamentally solve the problem, and some craftsmen from Jiangnan were already clamoring to leave. After working in the shipyard for a period of time, I know that there are not only many craftsmen here, but also many of them with high standards, and maybe when their secret skills will be cracked, it is not a loss that can be made up for by the current high salary.

"Second Young Master." Zhu Houwei fixed his eyes and saw that it was Yang Yixing, who is now the person in charge of the shipyard, and there were three old people behind him, that is, the old men of Longjiang Village before, Li Ruqing, Qiu Run and Yang Tie. Seeing that the three of them were about to bow and salute, Zhu Houwei hurriedly stopped, "The three of them don't need to be polite, and now the shipyard has to rely on the three foils." Li Ruqing was the oldest, smiling with a wrinkled face, and there were not many teeth left, and he arched his hand at Zhu Houwei and said, "Your Highness is serious, now this shipyard is full of talents, and Director Yang is also a capable person, and the three of us old men can rest." Zhu Houwei's face was pale, and he asked Yang and his entourage, "Did you make the three of you suffer?" Li Ruqing hurriedly shook his hand and said, "No, no, what the old man said is true." The three of us are now old and not in good health, and if it weren't for the shipyard's hospital that treated the three of us well, we might have been buried in the ground. Now the old children and grandchildren are working in the shipyard, and they have a good job, and even the younger ones have entered the Chaoyang Academy to study and read this year. The three of us want to retire, and if the shipyard asks the three of us to help, we will come, or we will stay at home and live this idle life. It's really not that Director Yang treats us thinly. Yang and his entourage turned to the three of them and saluted, and said respectfully, "The group has just arrived, and they are young, and it is safe for the three to help them, and they dare not forget it." Nowadays, the shipyard is full of troubled people, and if the three of them are not there, there is no bottom in the heart. Not to mention, the boatwrights from Jiangnan had to leave a few days ago, and the three of them came forward to settle the matter, otherwise the party would not be able to do it properly. ”

At the mention of this, the three old men also frowned, and the old man Yang Tie said, "That's just a temporary calmdown, if you can't think of a way to come out, sooner or later you will have to do something." "The three old men have rich life experience, and they are also from boatsmiths, and they know very well what those boatwrights from Jiangnan think, even so, the three of them can't think of any way.

Zhu Houwei said with a smile: "If you think about it together, it can always be solved." But the three shipyards are still inseparable, so please take them back if you are at home. Among the three, Qiu Run, who was in the middle, said, "Your Highness, the old man is a straight intestine, just say what you have directly." It's nothing to stay in the shipyard, but after all, we are too old to work, we just talk about it, but with such a high monthly income, the three of us really can't help it. Only then did Zhu Houwei understand, thought about it, and then said, "It's better to do this, the three of them are still in the shipyard, and they will use the name of a consultant." I get twenty taels of monthly money every month, and I don't need to come to the shipyard every day. If something happens, the shipyard will come back to the three of you, and those three will usually go to the shipyard and give pointers. If this happens again, the three of them will come out to ease up and let everyone talk in peace. ”

The three of them glanced at each other, and Lao Li, as the eldest brother, said, "Your Highness, the monthly money is still too much." Ten taels a month, the three of us took it with a thick old face. Zhu Houwei smiled, "Okay, okay, just follow the three." The three of them bowed their hands and thanked His Highness. "This matter is settled, and it is a happy situation for all.

Several people went to the office of Yang and his party to chat for a while, and then Yang and his party went out and began to gather all the craftsmen.

After about half an hour, the shipyard was basically shut down. The craftsmen were all called away, and the workers who were doing the hard work were staring at each other, not knowing what was happening. Some of the brave ones also followed the craftsmen, ready to see the excitement, but no one came out to stop them anyway.

A large open space in the shipyard was now crowded with people, probably at least a thousand, and that didn't take into account the workers on the periphery. On the south side of the clearing, there is a simple high platform, but standing on it can also be seen by the people behind.

There was a commotion in the audience, and these craftsmen didn't know what was going on, so they just said their guesses there, causing others around them to discuss. There are more people talking, and the voices are getting louder and louder.

After a while, four people came to the stage, and when the people in the audience saw that these four people knew each other, the young factory director and the three respected shipyard veterans. Mr. Li is the oldest in the shipyard, upright, and has the highest prestige in the shipyard. I saw him stand on the north side of the high plane, the closest to everyone, and then pressed his hand towards the noisy crowd, and then after a few seconds, the noisy crowd suddenly fell silent.

Although Li Lao is old, he is still full of energy, and said loudly, "Everyone is quiet, let Director Yang say a few words to everyone." Listen carefully, this is a big event about everyone's life or even generations. ”

Everyone listened even more attentively, wishing that they had a good ear and could listen to the words on the high platform without any difference. Yang and his entourage stepped forward, first bowed to everyone, and then said loudly, "I, Yang and his entourage, have been in the shipyard for less than a year, but everyone should know me." Although I am young, I am sure that I will do what I say. Whether it comes first or later, they are all experts, and some things are also unique secret skills. But if the shipyard wants to do it well, it needs these things. Many people's craftsmanship is passed down from their ancestors, and the children are not passed on to the daughters, why? That is to think that future generations will have a craft to be around and not starve to death. I also understand the reason, but today is different from the past, how fast the shipyard is developing, everyone knows the bottom of their hearts, maybe when the shipyard will be able to figure out these technologies by themselves. But now our shipyard can't be wronged, so we made a decision, in the future, as long as it is beneficial to the shipyard, the technology that can be used, as long as it is reported to the shipyard, then you can get two to ten taels of silver per month, this is not the end of you can't do it. If you don't work anymore, the money will still be given to you every month, and if you die, then give it to your son, and it will be passed on from generation to generation, until you don't use this technical shipyard, and it will be over. Everyone thought about it carefully, if they really didn't want to leave, the shipyard would also let them go. Also, if you have any questions in the future, you can come to me directly, or you can find these three. If there is any problem, everyone will talk about it calmly. That's it, let's disperse. ”

As he spoke, he arched his hand and walked away cleanly with the three old men. The originally quiet crowd exploded all at once and began to discuss. This is a matter of vital interests, and it is necessary to listen to more opinions before making a decision.

The plan given by the shipyard can be said to be very sincere, especially the benefits will not stop until the process is not in use. This is not the era of the information explosion in later generations, and the technology you learned in your freshman year is outdated by the time you graduate from your senior year. In these days, it may take decades, hundreds or even hundreds of years for a technology to be developed.

Zhu Houwei hid in the corner just now, and then the reaction of the crowd was also seen, and Zhu Houwei was relieved, because many people began to waver, and the local and Longjiang craftsmen would not have any problems.

Just as he was humming a little song and slowly walking towards the office of Yang and his entourage, he suddenly heard the sound of "bang", although it was not very clear, but soon, he heard the bell, which was an emergency signal from the dock. Zhu Houwei turned his head to look at Zhu Yuan, who was listening carefully to the bell, and after ringing, Zhu Yuan said solemnly, "I found a pirate." “
