Chapter 224: The natives also celebrated the Mid-Autumn Festival
During the Mid-Autumn Festival, the indigenous laborers at the estuary base also had a holiday as required.
Although most of them don't worship the moon, they still only stay in the primitive totem worship, and they don't know the lunar calendar, but they can also take a three-day holiday, and it is a paid holiday, which really makes them happy.
I hope that the people of Hantang Group will have more holidays like this, and they will remember the Mid-Autumn Festival in their hearts, and there will be it again at this time next year.
In contrast to the change in the diet at the estuary base, the natives returned to their cottages and brought back a new way of eating, one that they didn't like to roast or boil as before—instead stir-fried.
Of course, the rice is still steamed.
They brought back thin iron pots, shovels for stir-frying, and kitchen knives of the Ming style, which were sold in the small market - not too cheap, but still affordable, after all, the Ming people's stir-fried food was so delicious that it was better than boiling or baking.
It's worth the cost, and the food and cloth are available anyway, and it's okay for a few months.
When they returned to their homes, they built stoves like the Ming people did—there were firewood, hay and other things, and charcoal.
They also bought oil -- they also knew that it was squeezed out of the coconuts they had sent by the Han Tang Group.
They had seen that the people of the Han Tang Group dried the coconut meat, and then put it in a large iron object, and then after a rumbling sound, the oil came out, and the oil was quite expensive.
There are also natives who privately want to try it to see if they can squeeze out the oil as well - the result is now in vain, it seems that only the people of the Han and Tang groups can squeeze it out - many natives have to exchange more coconuts if they don't want to spend a horse ticket.
They also bought some spices, and as for the stir-fry technique - they often saw the Ming people stir-fry their own vegetables at home - it seemed that it was not difficult, and the Ming people were also very generous, and often gave them some stir-fried vegetables, which they had eaten, and they were similar to those in the cafeteria, or more delicious.
When the natives who returned home began to stir-fry when they were cooking, the smell of stir-fried food would be more aggressive and smell more appealing than the taste of cooking.
In the evening, the whole cottage is filled with this aroma -
The president and Ah Wu glanced at each other, knowing that neither side could do anything about it.
Wu wanted to say something, but couldn't. They just got to eat—it seemed that they couldn't get in touch with the mountain gods and ancestors all of a sudden.
The president sighed and was speechless. In fact, he wanted to say: This is really a great change that has not been encountered in thousands of years! But he can't organize such a language, and maybe the idea should be similar.
The natives who came home also brought some pickles, sauerkraut. Some of these were bought in small markets, and some were given by the Ming people, and they were much more delicious than they were just salted or pickled.
They also made chairs, tables, and beds out of bamboo, and if they had time, they would have made them wooden, and they had seen them, and they knew how to make them—but the three-day vacation was a little less.
The natives who came back often said: "Hunting is work, weaving bamboo and burning charcoal are also work, and all the anger of the mountain gods should be directed to the Han and Tang groups."
It's just that now it seems that the life of the Hantang Group has been very good, and the mountain god doesn't seem to be angry yet-
The second day of the Mid-Autumn Festival is a gathering day for the indigenous people. They still made a great fire, and the witch added something mystical to it, and the natives smelled their familiar smell again, and began to be in a trance again, and began to sing the praises of their ancestors with the dance of the witch—the voice of the song was long and rhythmic.
But a few of the little natives somehow remembered the terrible cry of the big circular saw—that was the power of the Han and Tang cliques.
The day before the Mid-Autumn Festival, Dalu, the son of the president of Xingang and the deputy leader of the security team, got off the boat at the dock in Budai Town with two security team members of the same clan.
The situation in the northern part of Taiwan is special, they only have one day off, strictly speaking, only half a day off.
Coal, more coal! This is the only requirement of Hantang Group for them.
This is ahead of the demand for pyrite and sulphur, and they ignore gold and copper for the time being.
As soon as coal was first put into use, it showed its power - it took a quarter less time to burn than the same volume of coal.
The storage space and manpower that can be saved in this quarter of the time should not be underestimated -- at least for the sailing ships O3 and O4, which can travel to and from the Penghu Islands without worrying about their short legs -- as long as they are full of coal, the round-trip and patrol are not a problem, and if another coal bunker is built in Xiamen, the seamless connection between the two sides of the strait can be realized.
Of course, this is still the plan for October, and now it is being arranged, so there is no hurry.
For the boiler room of the Hongxing Thermal Power Plant, the labor required to add coal is much less than that of adding charcoal -- besides, burning charcoal always makes the people of the Hantang Group feel a sense of disobedience.
No matter how much you comfort yourself and say that the world is our storehouse - but you still can't stand it subconsciously, this kind of behavior is ridiculous!
Therefore, the technicians in the northern region of Taiwan also know the current situation, let's work overtime, fortunately, overtime pay is more. It's kind of a mental balance.
Some of the indigenous security guards and the hired guards were recruited to start recruit training in Keelung - but not in a centralized and closed manner, but in rotation.
In addition to the need for work, these people should also participate in the work of "double support" -- supporting farmers and workers, and this is all necessary.
The matter of training recruits, the people of the Han and Tang groups really didn't have much to do, and the Ming Wu Hualong and the indigenous Luda jumped up and down with joy - beating people, and it was a real beating, and then they went to take medicine in person -
Squadron Leader Sun Yu and Captain Wu Jianqiang are happy to see it, as long as their direction is good, the soldiers don't care about some details.
After returning from the Miaoli region, the Ming Wu Hualong and the native Daru formed a deep friendship, and the two complemented each other very well - of course, those Ming guards and newly recruited natives did obey these two, with standard movements and excellent skills - but they also coveted the pistol on the lap of their captain Wu Hualong.
Captain Wu Hualong has only demonstrated it once, and he has played it so accurately, and he can even - all the recruits were shocked.
Captain Wu Hualong said coldly at that time: "This is what I Wu Hualong exchanged for my life - here, anyone has to start from scratch - I don't care what happened to you in the past!" ”
Behind him, Captain Daru was also small-chested and straight—but he felt uncomfortable.
Why don't I have that pistol? Not even a Type 1649?! Although the steel crossbow is also good, it is always not as powerful as the gun; Although I still can't speak "Mandarin", at least I understand that "Mandarin", but I just can't speak it.
Daru repeatedly begged Captain Wu Hualong to ask him to find Captain Wu Jianqiang, which annoyed Captain Wu Hualong.
He said, "Are you kid finished?!" ”
Daru's deputy captain straightened his chest and said, "It's not over, I don't think it's fair!" ”
Captain Wu Hualong wanted to smoke him, but he couldn't find a reason, so let's pass on a message.
Captain Wu Hualong had no choice but to find Captain Wu Jianqiang.
At that time, Captain Wu Jianqiang was happy and said, "Is this old boy saying that it is unfair? Well, it's a bit unfair, so let's see how they're training indigenous recruits—"
Captain Wu Jianqiang thought to himself that it was not necessarily a bad thing to give them a few Type 1649 guns, and it was best to distinguish them from other natives.
The natives' training was enthusiastic.
This also indirectly stimulated the Ming guards - who were originally familiar with the earth monkey in their minds, but now they are still practicing with a board and a glance - who are we? Even those abandoned pawns of the Zheng family back then - of course, they are now full of military strength, firearms, no, should be called Type 1649 rifles, they are quite accurate, they cannot be regarded as abandoned pawns, and they cannot be said to be the same.
Liu Bandit King, who was guarded by the Ming people, also had a certain right to speak in the team of three hundred people.
He said to his brothers in private: "We were originally elite soldiers, and Yongshengbo asked me to wait to come, because I was afraid of losing the face of the Zheng family, and now our family members are all in Taiwan - you have to be careful." Before, those Zheng family abandoned the climate - don't let the familiar people compare with us - when Zheng Sanye came here, he just looked at me and waited, and didn't pay any attention to it, and I must think about the future. ”
And so did everyone.
Of course, rotation training is not as good as centralized closed training, not to mention that they still have their own work, and at the same time, they have to carry out double work.
But what satisfies the Hantang Group the most is that the Ming guards have no psychological barriers to these red-haired fans, that is, they scold when they should be scolded, whip when they raise their whips, and kick when they raise their feet.
Hantang Group has analyzed that the reason is very simple, everyone has fought each other, even if you can come to me, I can't go to you, but when fighting, you have heavy artillery, and I have clippers; You defeat me once, and I defeat you once. is a brother relationship between Da Liu and Xiao Liu, and the chance factor is quite large.
Therefore, for the current Ming pirates, this is the era of "the east wind blows, the war drums beat, who is afraid of whom in today's world", not a certain stage of the world, everyone is playing the stand-alone mode, and their own people play their own people - a sense of fearlessness, and now it is absolutely real.
The natives were not, and it seemed that they were really scared by the red-haired babies—except for Daru and the others, the rest were still a little afraid—and their actions were evident in the telescopes of the traversers.
This is not going to work, this situation and mentality are hindering the next step of the plan.
Natives are afraid of foreigners? Let it be an internet rumor.
Later, during the rotation training, the Hantang group disrupted and reorganized everyone, and a Ming man took two natives to supervise the work together.
In the binoculars of the Han and Tang cliques, no matter how the Ming guards abused the Hongmao, no one came out to persuade them anymore -- the Hongmaobo had been working for more than two months and had not yet learned to abide by the rules -- it was a matter of their own character to be beaten again.
It didn't take long for the Indigenous people to go from stunned to acknowledged to actively engaged.
Order could have been established on psychological or ** pain, and later, sadism became less and less.
The confidence of the natives was also built - what is self-confidence? It is the natives who believe that as long as you follow a certain rule and do it, you are invincible and no one can hurt you!
It's as simple as that.
The people of the Hantang Group did not take so many days off, but they gave Daru ten days off, and there is a reason here.
The Hantang Group needed Daru to do something for them.
