By the time the group of follow-up people went down to the shore with large bags of luggage, the sky had completely darkened, and several servants in the Guangzhou Office lit the lanterns prepared in advance, but the scope of illumination was still extremely limited. In this era when urban lighting has not been realized, once it is night, it is pitch black everywhere, and it is also one of the most uncomfortable places for travelers.

"Now that it's getting dark, otherwise, I'll go back to the Guangzhou Office first, and then slowly introduce you to a few other comrades. Sun Changmi saw that it was not a time to talk about things now, so he said to Schneider.

"That's fine, put all the luggage in the car, and we'll go back." Schneider hurriedly ordered his men to drive the ox cart over. The bullock cart had been rented from a carriage and horse dealer at the wharf in the afternoon, so that it could carry the luggage when the ship arrived.

At this time, it is definitely not possible to carry those heavy and large materials, and what can be transported by ox carts is only everyone's carry-on luggage. Sun Changmi took advantage of this time to return to the ship and give a few more words to the left-behind personnel on duty, which was nothing more than fire prevention and theft prevention, and then returned to the shore and returned to the Guangzhou Office with Schneider and others.

Under the guidance of a few paper lanterns, a group of people in the second echelon followed the ox cart running Li one foot at a time, but fortunately, when the site was originally selected, the Guangzhou Office took into account that they would often go to the wharf by the Pearl River in the future to do business, and specially found a place very close to the wharf, and the work arrived in a short time.

There is no sign hanging at the entrance of the Guangzhou Office, only two lanterns under the eaves. The door plate has already been done in a carpentry workshop in Guangzhou, but Schneider is not in a hurry to sign it, which means that he will wait for this group of people to arrive and then choose a simple listing ceremony to enhance the internal cohesion of this small collective.

A servant had already rushed to the front, and called out a group of people from the courtyard to help bring in the luggage from the ox cart. Among the newcomers, only Sun Changmi went to the Cliff Office once because of his work, and when he saw this courtyard, he naturally made a comparison: "I said Lao He, it's good for you to find this place, look at this regulation, it should be bigger than the Cliff Office, right?"

He Xi has been in the Cliff Office for several months, and he is most familiar with this, so he said with a smile: "This courtyard is a standard northern courtyard, and the courtyard with four entrances is nearly twice as large as the Cliff Office. This is not that we deliberately exceed the standard, after all, there are so many people under the establishment of the Guangzhou Office, and in the future, we will not only usher in the place to be sent, but also put some goods, and the place must be more spacious. ”

Sun Changmi waved his hand and said: "Lao He, you don't need to explain, since the executive committee has approved this expense, it means that it is clear that this money cannot be saved." It's a bit expensive, but the Guangzhou Office is a place to make money, and with Mr. Shi in charge, he got it back in a few months. ”

Schneider smiled: "You hold me up so high, and you're not afraid of falling to death for me!"

Everyone laughed and entered the second courtyard, and then listened to He Xi: "Everyone has worked hard all the way, we have prepared a reception wine for everyone to wash the dust, today we will not talk about work for the time being, only talk about revolutionary friendship, everyone can relax a little." By the way, the cost of today's reception wine was specially approved by President Shi, and it was included in the office expenses of the Guangzhou Office, so you are not welcome. ”

Schneider is not only the leader of the Guangzhou Office, but also the financial supervisor of the entire crossing group, and the special approval of this fee is of course just a gesture for him. Of course, no one will really point fingers at the cost of such a meal, thousands of taels of house purchase money have been spent, and it is not a big deal to have a meal while the people in the Guangzhou Office are gathered.

A banquet table had been set up in the main room on the north side, and Schneider and He Xi beckoned everyone to sit together. This large yellow rosewood round table was included with the furniture that came with the purchase of the courtyard, and it can seat 12 people, and now 10 people are still a little more spacious. The naturalized people who came with them were brought by their subordinates to eat in another side room, and naturally they were also entertained with good wine and food.

Schneider was naturally elected by everyone to sit in the first seat, while Dr. Morgan sat in the second seat because he was the oldest, and the rest of the people sat down next to each other in turn. Schneider took the wine jug and poured the wine glasses one by one for everyone, and then raised his glass and said: "You have been bumpy on the sea for so many days, you can't eat or sleep well along the way, I know this feeling very well, even if you arrive here, even if you are home, everyone will have a good rest after eating and drinking." In addition, the staffing of our Guangzhou Office is now complete, and I hope that all colleagues can unite as one in the future to do a good job in the work of the Guangzhou Office!

"Cheers!" everyone toasted together.

"This wine is good!" Morgan complimented as soon as he put down his glass, "It's much better than the fruit wine we drank in Victory Harbor!"

"Now the grain in the base camp is all controlled materials, and it can't be used to make wine, and the taste of fruit wine is naturally not as good as this grain wine. He Xi explained to Morgan: "But this wine is really good, it was recommended to us by the big shopkeeper of 'Fu Ruifeng'." After all this time, this is the best liquor I've ever tasted. ”

"Would you like to consider buying some and sending them back to Victory Harbor?" Mr. Sun quipped.

"Send it back to Victory Harbor? no, no, no, not ......," Schneider interjected: "Instead of sending it back to Victory Harbor, it is better to use this wine to make money in the mainland market." As long as Shengli Port brings some glass bottles every time we come over, we can set up a workshop in Guangzhou to specialize in filling. As long as we change the packaging of this wine, the price can increase by at least five times! As long as we negotiate the price with this brewing workshop, they should be happy to cooperate with us and make a lot of money!"

"It's really three sentences that don't leave the bank! Mr. Shi is really a professional!" Sun Changmi couldn't help but admire Schneider's economic acumen. Anything that came to him seemed to be naturally transformed into a business opportunity, and it was no wonder that the Executive Committee sent him to Guangzhou to preside over the trade work with the mainland.

"Okay, don't praise me, this sycophant can be saved until you are transferred to the Guangzhou Office. Schneider made a joke, and then filled his glass again: "Why don't you captain hurry up and introduce me to a new colleague!"

Sun Changmi remembered that he hadn't had time to introduce the second echelon to Schneider and He Xi just now, and patted his head and said: "It's my negligence, I'll punish myself later!"

After the joke is over, it is the right thing to introduce everyone to know each other. In fact, these people have been in a large group for several months, more than half a year, most of them have already met, and some of them know each other's names, but they don't necessarily know what kind of work each person is engaged in. Although Sun Changmi's trip also brought the electronic files of these people, which will be handed over to Schneider for safekeeping later, this kind of mutual introduction at the wine table is also a process that employees must go through when they join the new unit.

"Sister Ma should know each other, right?" Sun Changmi first introduced the oldest one in the second echelon.

"I know, Sister Ma must know!" Schneider replied repeatedly.

Ma Yu, 38 years old, female, worked as an intern teacher at a health school before crossing over, and is now affiliated with the medical department under the Ministry of the Interior, mainly responsible for medical and nursing guidance, and is also responsible for the training of naturalized nursing personnel. Considering that Guangzhou will be an important window for the mainland to send population to Sanya for a period of time to come, and that health and epidemic prevention work is a key project that must be constantly grasped, the Executive Committee selected Ma Yu from among the candidates recommended by the Ministry of the Interior, on the one hand, because of her practical work experience, and on the other hand, it is also to make it more convenient for the Guangzhou Office to have a female comrade in dealing with immigration affairs in the future.

Of course, the Executive Committee will never admit that the fact that there is still pressure from feminists to approve the opening of the ** in Shengli Port is a bit of a loss for the Executive Committee, and leaving a place for female members in the Guangzhou Office is also a kind of remedial measure after the fact. The Executive Committee decided that a small compromise in personnel arrangements in exchange for the silence of a few feminists was a good deal.

Although Ma Yu is not young, she is extremely well maintained, and her appearance still looks like a young woman in her twenties, and many people even call her "Tianshan Tongma" behind her back. Ma Yu is single and has not started a family, and she is very beautiful, and it is said that she went to an art academy to study when she was young, and she has an outstanding level of painting and singing, which is very in line with the image of a Chinese art woman in the public's mind. At the beginning of Ma Yu's entry into the crossing group, it once aroused the interest of many single men, but later these people retreated, they were not frightened by Ma Yu's age, but because this outstanding appearance Sister Ma is said to have a bit of a special sexual orientation and is not interested in men, so she has not started a family until middle age.

Of course, the authenticity of this news has yet to be verified, but this has made Ma Yu's reputation even more famous within the crossing group. A large group of single otaku are clamoring to burn heterosexuality on the internal forum every day, lily is king, and Ma Yu's appearance is just in line with this joke, plus her temperament and appearance are also superior, and with the support of a group of otaku, she quickly became a grassroots idol figure within the group.

Although Schneider does not belong to the otaku family, he still admires Ma Yu's beauty and appearance only at the level of appreciation, and Schneider is not interested in women older than him. In his opinion, Ma Yu's comprehensive su zhì should at least rank in the top three among the female members within the crossing group, if it weren't for the weakness of being older, it would probably not be a grassroots idol but a national goddess.

Ma Yu's personality is very cheerful, and he doesn't have any shelves, so he raised his glass very happily and said to Shi He and the others: "Mr. Shi, Lao He, please take care of you in the future!"

"Don't dare to be, everyone takes care of each other, take care of each other!" Shi He and the others didn't dare to hold it up, so they hurriedly raised their glasses to greet each other.

After Ma Yu were two people sent by the Military Police Department, Xiao Liang and Yu Yao. Regarding the details of these two people, even Sun Changmi, who led the team, was not particularly clear, and He Xi and Morgan, two people who were attached to the military police department, were present, and he could not blow it casually, so he could only briefly introduce the names of the two and the tasks they would undertake in the Guangzhou Office.

However, He Xi has been in contact with a lot of internal personnel files because of his work, and he has an impression of these two people: "If I'm not mistaken, both of you should be from Guangdong, right?"

Xiao Liang nodded and said, "I am from Chaozhou, he is from Shantou, and he is very close. I think the Executive Committee selected us, which should have something to do with our hometown. ”

Xiao Liang's guess is indeed good, and the Executive Committee has indeed paid special attention to the origins of the candidates when selecting personnel, especially those of the Military Police Department. In a place like Guangdong, if you send a few northerners to it, I am afraid it will be difficult to adapt to the local climate and diet for a while. Guangdong natives like Xiao Liang and Yu Yao are unlikely to have such problems, and with the two of them, they can also provide some help for the Guangzhou Office to be familiar with the local people. As for other information, it involves the executive committee's long-term layout of Guangdong, but it is inconvenient for the two to disclose too much on such an occasion.

Sha Xi, a 25-year-old single man who was sent by the civil affairs department to be in charge of immigration affairs in Guangzhou, worked as a tour guide in a travel agency before the crossing, and was a fanatical crossover culture lover. However, this guy has no other work experience except for the tour guide, and the technical position is obviously not his share, but fortunately, he has been selling his mouth for many years, and the people he has seen are all kinds of people, and he is very good at treating people, so he was finally asked by Ning Qi to go to the civil affairs department to do things.

Prior to his assignment to Guangzhou, Shaxi's main job was to settle a steady stream of immigrants at Shengli Port, and the GDO felt that he had some practical experience and was suitable to come to Guangzhou to take charge of immigration-related affairs. If Shaxi is not selected in this screening, it is very likely that he will take on an important position such as immigration officer in the newly established Port Management Committee. And now this position that is being watched by many people does not know who will be cheaper in the end, compared to Sha Xi, who was sent to Guangzhou by the order of the Executive Committee, from a certain point of view, it is more like the feeling of being suddenly assigned to the frontier. However, he himself is very open-minded, after all, the future of the Guangzhou Office is very bright, and the significance of being able to do something here is no less significant than earning a table in Shengli Port under the nose of the Executive Committee.

"Little brother Sha Xi can work with you is really an honor for the little brother, please take care of you in the future!" This Sha Xi spoke very fast, like a cannon, without punctuation marks at all, probably also in the career of a tour guide.

The person sent by the Ministry of Information Industry is named Chen Tianqi, a twenty-six-year-old single man, who worked in a city archive before the crossing, a standard otaku, and only radio in his spare time except for the second dimension, and is a senior player who has passed the CRAC, that is, the China Amateur Radio Work Committee. Although Chen Tianqi did not have a professional background in communications, his understanding and familiarity with the technology of radio was no less than that of professionals such as Wu Zhuo and Zhang Guang in the Ministry of Information Industry.

When the Executive Committee received the personnel application information from the Guangzhou Office, Meng He directly took out Chen Tianqi's file: "There is no need to choose, he is the most suitable." ”

Familiar with the application and maintenance of radio stations, and have work experience in file management, such personnel requirements are simply tailor-made for Chen Tianqi. However, Chen Tianqi was still a little dissatisfied before he set off, because his volunteer destination was not the Guangzhou Office, but the Haihan Archives, which was still in the plan.

The purpose of this archive is to put as much information as possible on paper before the various electronic devices brought by the Crossing Group are discarded, including the vast amount of data in the hundreds of large-capacity hard disks in the large number of jù libraries.

This is undoubtedly a costly project, and even when the last hard disk of the crossing group is scrapped, the project may still not be successfully completed, but this is a project that the crossing group cannot avoid and has to do. Even if these people are all geniuses, it is impossible to replicate the scientific and technological level of the 21st century in one generation, and many things they still have to leave to future generations to study slowly, and the various materials brought from the world before crossing will become the reliance of future generations to change the world, and it is difficult to say that the world will be ruined because of too much information left.

Chen Tianqi aims to preside over this large archive, and he wants to engrave his name forever in the history of science and technology in the New World. Unfortunately, although the Executive Committee has put the establishment of the archive project on the agenda, it is still a long time before the project can actually begin. The construction of the archives is not the most troublesome thing, and the Executive Committee can now allocate enough labor and materials to squeeze in, but what really makes the Executive Committee feel that it has to occupy a large number of people, because only the people who travel can understand the principle of the storage of the large number jù library, and organize it according to the rules of classification of the number jù, and then the time-consuming process of writing. At most, the literate naturalized people can help copy the books, but it will certainly not work to get them to organize the knowledge system, and in the end all the delicate work will have to be done by the traversers themselves.

In order to transfer Chen Tianqi to Guangzhou, the executive committee had a lot of words, and finally several big mouths were dispatched together, and it was a gamble and a wish, and finally Chen Tianqi, who only wanted to nest in Shengli Harbor and wait for a big deal, changed his attitude, and the executive committee promised that when the archives project entered the actual operation stage, it would definitely leave a space for the two-dimensional culture in the entire process of replicating the digital library.

Of course, the Executive Committee also has unspoken subtext, if you Chen Tianqi can't find so many painters to copy the classic works he requested, then don't complain that the Executive Committee is untrustworthy.

No matter what, Chen Tianqi finally obeyed the organizational arrangement and obediently packed his luggage and came to Guangzhou. In the coming period, he will be responsible for the confidential organization and radio liaison work of the Guangzhou Office, completely liberating Schneider and He Xi from tedious housekeeping.
