Chapter 21: Ding Ruchang summoned

Lin Daxin is inspecting the factory area next to the Sailor School, Lin Daxin purchased from the British Jardine Matheson 10 factories in the textile factory, garment factory, wood factory, flour mill, machine equipment has been installed, because the production process is not complicated, the workers have basically mastered the technology from the British technicians, these four factories have begun to put into production.

In the textile and garment factories, Lin Daxin recruited some female workers from the Weihai Acropolis and the surrounding areas, and began to produce cotton cloth and clothes, which are now mainly used to make military uniforms for the cadets of the Sailor Academy.

The military uniform is the German SS uniform during World War II, although Lin Daxin has customized a lot from modern time and space, but there are only tens of thousands of sets, the SS military uniform is a relatively alternative clothing in modern time and space, Lin Daxin does not dare to buy an unlimited amount, and there are more than 40,000 students in the Sailor School, and there will be more people in the future, plus the damaged ones will also be replaced, and the number of military uniforms will be very large, and now there is its own textile factory and garment factory, which is just producing this kind of military uniform that Lin Daxin likes very much.

What was produced in the woodworking and flour mills was also supplied to the Sailor School.

Cement factories, power plants, steel mills, shipyards, chemical plants, machine factories and German arsenals were almost built, but the production process of these factories was more complicated, and the Qing Dynasty workers in the factories still needed training from foreign technicians, and it would take some time before they were put into operation.

At this time, a student of the Sailor Academy wearing an SS uniform, with two Mauser revolvers pinned to his waist, ran to Lin Daxin's side, took a breath and said: "Principal, someone from the Admiral's Mansion said that the Sailor in Lushun has returned and will be able to arrive on Liugong Island tomorrow. ”

When Lin Daxin heard this, his face showed a trace of excitement, and he said, "Father is back!" I see, Ergou! It just so happened that Lin Daxin also had something to report to Ding Ruchang, so he decided to go to the Admiral's Mansion immediately.

The student of the Sailor Academy wearing the SS uniform was Chen Ergou, who signed up with Wu Peifu and Jiang Chen.

Wu Peifu and Jiang Chen were both selected into the teaching team, and a few days ago, Lin Daxin set up a 30-person guard team for himself, with a strong physique and excellent training, Chen Ergou was selected into Lin Daxin's guard team. and was appointed by Lin Daxin as the captain of the guard.

Lin Daxin returned to his room in the Sailor Academy, changed his military uniform, put on the official uniform of the Qing Dynasty from Qipin, came to Weihaiwei Port with the guard team and 100,000 taels of silver, and took a small steamer to Liugong Island.

When he arrived outside the Admiral's Mansion, Lin Daxin asked the guards to wait outside, and walked into the Admiral's Mansion alone, and under the guidance of the servants of the Admiral's Mansion, Lin Daxin met Admiral Ding Ruchang in a study.

Lin Daxin knelt on the ground: "Lin Daxin, deputy general manager of the Weihai Weishui Master Academy, has seen Lord Admiral!" ”

Ding Ruchang, who was reading a book, waited for a long time before he glanced at Lin Daxin, who was kneeling on the ground, and said, "Get up!" ”

Hearing Ding Ruchang speak, Lin Daxin got up from the ground.

Ding Ruchang continued: "Pingshi, the old man didn't expect you to be so able to toss, you can make tens of thousands of people in a sailor school, do you know that someone has made a break to the court, saying that my Beiyang is reorganizing its armament in Weihaiwei, and has established tens of thousands of troops without permission, intending to rebel!" ”

When Lin Daxin heard Ding Ruchang's words, he chuckled in his heart, and hurriedly shouted injustice: "Lord Admiral, this is too wronged!" We are a sailor school, recruiting all students, although there are a little more, but it is definitely not an army! ”

Ding Ruchang snorted coldly and said: "The Water Master School is under the nose of the old man, can the old man not know what your Water Master School is like!" Hum! If it weren't for the fact that he was suppressed by Lord Li Hongzhang! It's not just you kid who can't keep his head! Even the old man can't get out of the relationship! ”

Lin Daxin looked up at Ding Ruchang's face, he didn't look very angry, and immediately said with a hippie smile: "The kid also wants to share his worries for the Admiral!" Japan has become more and more arrogant recently, and the boy is afraid that war will break out at any time, and if there is no reliable army at that time, the safety of our Beiyang Naval Division in the land direction will not be guaranteed! Hehe, in addition, this time the kid brought 100,000 taels of silver to the Admiral, saving the adults from worrying about the funds of the Beiyang Naval Division! ”

Ding Ruchang heard that Lin Daxin brought another 100,000 taels of silver, his whole face completely eased, and he said with a smile: "You kid is really a rich man!" 100,000 taels of silver said to take it out! Okay, the old man will accept your silver, as your kid said, in case my country really dares to risk the world's condemnation, my Beiyang sailor will definitely teach the Oriental children a lesson! Your 100,000 taels of silver is just enough to buy a batch of shells for the warships of the naval division, otherwise if there is really a war, my Beiyang naval division will not even have enough shells! ”

When Lin Daxin heard Ding Ruchang say this, he immediately said: "Lord Admiral, the kid will have someone transport 200,000 taels of silver in two days to buy cannonballs for the sailor!" ”

Ding Ruchang said approvingly: "Even if you kid has a conscience, it is in vain for Lord Li Hongzhang and the old man to defend you!" You kid will live in my Admiral's Mansion today! Tomorrow I will greet the sailor with the old man! ”

Lin Daxin hurriedly nodded and agreed, Lin Daxin said to Ding Ruchang that he had bought a few practice ships for the Sailor Academy, Ding Ruchang asked casually after listening, what kind of warships are they, the Beiyang Naval Division has its own practice ships, and Lin Daxin doesn't have to spend those unjust silver.

Lin Daxin has already purchased two prototypes of the Dingyuan ship and the Zhenyuan ship, the "Württemberg" and "Bayern" of the German Saxony-class ironclad ships, and also purchased 6 main warships and 8 torpedo boats of the Chilean Navy, preparing to use these warships as training ships for the Sailor School.

After Ding Ruchang listened, he looked at Lin Daxin in surprise, and he didn't close his mouth for a long time. Then repeatedly checked with Lin Daxin to see if this was true! It wasn't until Lin Daxin took out the purchase contract for the two Saxony-class ironclad ships "Württemberg" and "Bayern" signed with the German Lihe Foreign Company and the German Admiralty from his arms that Ding Ruchang believed that what Lin Daxin said was true!

Ding Ruchang looked at Lin Daxin's very innocent face, and Ding Ruchang secretly said in his heart, this kid can really toss! But the old man likes it! When those warships come back, it will be another Beiyang naval division!

Lin Daxin asked the guards outside the Admiral's Mansion to hand over 100,000 taels of silver to the people in the Admiral's Mansion, and then asked Chen Ergou to take the guards to the military camp near the Admiral's Mansion to live, and he entered the Admiral's Mansion.

That night, Ding Ruchang personally had dinner with Lin Daxin, and his attitude towards Lin Daxin during the banquet was very, very kind, which made Lin Daxin a little uncomfortable! After eating, Lin Daxin returned to the room arranged for him.

Lin Daxin's room is an independent small courtyard, and there are many flowers and plants planted in the yard, which have now been revitalized in April.

Lin Daxin, who couldn't sleep, walked to the yard, looked up at the full moon in the night sky, there was still a year before the First Sino-Japanese War, and now he has a force that can influence the direction of the war, more than 40,000 sailor academy students, after three months of modern training, Lin Daxin believes that if he encounters the same number of Japanese troops on land, he is still very sure of winning!

What's more, there is still more than a year to go, and Lin Daxin is confident that he will train an elite.

Now the purchased warships are about to come back, Lin Daxin is going to take out some of the more than 40,000 sailor academy students to become the navy, and if he wants these warships to have combat effectiveness, he must also draw some experienced sailors and gunners from the Beiyang Navy Division to help the trainees get familiar with the warships, so that in the naval battle of the First Sino-Japanese War, these newly purchased warships can come in handy.

Lin Daxin was thinking about things, and walked to the moon gate in the courtyard at random, and suddenly a person bumped into Lin Daxin's arms, Lin Daxin subconsciously hugged the person with both hands, took a step back, and the two did not fall.

"Oops! Why did you suddenly appear! Scared the hell out of me! Let go of me! A pleasant voice sounded in Lin Daxin's ears.

Lin Daxin looked down and saw that it was a young woman who bumped into him, and through the moonlight Lin Daxin saw a beautiful face that was both disgusted and happy, and the moonlight shone in her clear eyes, like two stars.

Lin Daxin quickly let go of his hands and took a few steps back, when two girls dressed as maids ran over, "Miss, you have nothing to do!" ”

The girl known as Miss, in her twentieth year, is tall and exquisite, with that beautiful face, Lin Daxin is obsessed with it all of a sudden!

Lin Daxin can be regarded as having seen the world, in modern time and space, he has seen a lot of beauties on the Internet and urban beauties in reality, but the beauty of the girl in front of him still shocked him!

Lin Daxin said a little sneeringly: "Yes...... I'm sorry! ”

The girl who was called Miss was hugged by Lin Daxin, her face was a little ruddy, and when she saw Lin Daxin's stunned appearance, she pursed her lips and smiled, glanced at Lin Daxin, and then took the two maids and left with a run.

Lin Daxin finally realized what it means to be Allure and smiled, stupidly watching the girl's figure disappear around the corner, Lin Daxin came to his senses, and was embarrassed to find that his saliva had flowed onto the front of his clothes.
