On September 15, a huge fleet from the Bay Area finally arrived on Shenlong Island.

Wang Xuan has been waiting for a long time, and it has been half a year since he came out this time, so Xiao Wang Jing should be able to call his father.

"Hurry up, the warehouse has been cleared, the shelves are ready soon, and the local supplies have arrived. The quartermaster shouted loudly, and instructed the warehouse keepers to hurry up the cleaning of the scene, lest there be a delay of half a minute, and His Majesty the King was waiting outside.

As the saying goes, if you don't work hard or be lazy, you won't be able to look long.

"Back to Your Majesty, the men are ready, and there are still a thousand engineers on standby. ”

Wang Zhi was a little out of breath, and came to Wang Xuan in three steps and two steps, with anticipation.

With money, people, and equipment, it's time for him to show his skills.

"Have you got the list of people from the locals?" asked Wang Zhi.

"I got it, 5,326 technicians and their families, more than 2,300 families of immigrants, or 8,634 people, and nearly 3,000 businessmen and free people. The rooms are well prepared, from single apartments to villas and mansions, as well as guest houses for internal employees in each factory. ”

Wang Zhi's sentence of 'enough' made Wang Xuan breathe a sigh of relief.

Leaving their hometowns, dragging their families to the distant Southern Continent that does not know tomorrow, and there is no good reception environment, how can they be expected to take root here and struggle for a lifetime?

This is the minimum courtesy for defectors.

"That's good, let's organize people to unload the goods as soon as possible. ”

The arrival of supplies has already made the government of the Southern Continent, which is desperately short of tools and equipment, impatient, and has also made the three indigenous tribes who are gradually falling to auspiciousness once again see the auspicious and powerful heritage.

It is a great feat and achievement that a small country living in a corner of the country can actually cross thousands of miles and occupy a place in the territory controlled by tigers and wolves in the far southern continent.

However, the mascot is dissatisfied with the comfortable status quo, and continues to transfuse blood from the local area, according to this trend, I am afraid that the southern continent will be modified in a few years.

In the eyes of the natives, the mark of civilization and strength is the value of force.

Undoubtedly, artillery and powerful warships capable of piercing through storm walls are the best proof of the strength of the force.

Now, let them gradually integrate into auspiciousness and become auspicious subjects, which is emotionally resistant, and no one wants to easily lose their ethnic heritage.

But from a rational point of view, except for the upper echelons of the clan who will feel a little lost, there is not much resistance.

More importantly, the auspicious promise is too good, of course, the premise is that it can be fulfilled.

Not only will the existing life pattern not change, but the welfare of the powerful people in the clan will also be improved, although they are no longer in charge of the powerful departments, but the scope of management has been expanded from one clan to the entire southern continent, and it is no longer considered a high-ranking official who has risen and fallen secretly.

Once the decision-making level is leveled, the rest is no longer difficult.

The people of several ethnic groups are not stupid, and a slight comparison between the present and the future can lead to a very obvious conclusion.

Especially the people at the bottom of the peasant tribe, it is better to be a mascot than a mascot.

The pomp and circumstance of the arrival of this huge supply fleet allowed them to witness first-hand how proud and proud it is to have a strong navy, and this feeling is a distant hope that they cannot get day and night.

The mascot jumped on the road to welcome the Chinese people from afar, and the strong sense of cordiality had already overflowed from the smiling faces and tirelessly waving arms, and even they could feel this heartfelt sincerity.

In such an environment and atmosphere, there is no one who does not want to be part of the welcoming crowd.

Jixiang, in just over a year, has unconsciously engraved the imprint into their hearts, affecting everything for them at all times.

The people from the Planning Bureau of the Ministry of Construction had already gathered around His Majesty the King, for fear that he would be a little softer in this regard, and he would make promises and empty the tools and instruments.

Wang Xuan naturally knew what they were coming from.

"Alright, I'm safe now, I don't need you to protect me with a human wall. ”

After Wang Xuan complained, Li Chun of the Planning Bureau continued: "Your Majesty's safety is greater than the sky, and we should work hard." ”

Stretching out his hand not to hit the smiling person, Wang Xuan had no choice but to go to the small government affairs of Shenlong Island.

Li Chun and the others followed closely behind, and had no intention of giving up.

Wang Xuan was stared at uncomfortably, so he stopped, turned around, stretched out his hand and said, "Take it." ”

Li Chun was overjoyed, hurriedly took a few steps forward, took out a somewhat gray folding paper from the left pocket of his jacket, and handed it over with both hands.

Wang Xuan saw that his face was full of joy, his face was already weathered, and the unhappiness in his heart instantly disappeared, and after taking the distribution list, he patted him on the shoulder, and returned to the government affairs yuan without saying anything.

This matter has been haunting Wang Xuan's mind.

Li Chun is not an example of the Southern Continent, let alone an auspicious case.

These grassroots cadres who have been promoted by leapfrogging with the rapid development of Jixiang have unknowingly served Jixiang for more than four or five years, but the pay and return are seriously unequal, which is his dereliction of duty.

Not to mention anything else, the first batch of officials to go to the southern continent have not seen their relatives at home for more than a year, and they only rely on the returning ships to bring a letter from home to report their safety, talk about their feelings, and that longing, that nostalgia can only be suppressed by endless work.

He himself is not like this, the last time he went home and got along with Xiao Wang Jing, the bits and pieces of his memory are the most valuable wealth in his memory, and he is deeply locked in his heart, unwilling to disperse even a slight.

It's time to put an end to it. ’

On the second day, after the engineering troops joined the busy transport team, the speed of transportation increased sharply, and by the evening all the supplies had been transferred to the warehouse.

On the evening of 16 July, people from all walks of life, including the owners of the islands, gathered at the Small Government Council and asked Wang Zhi for approval.

Wang Xuan now lives in Glory Town, and they don't dare to disturb it.

After Wang Zhi got the application list for the material distribution of the Planning Bureau from Wang Xuan's hand, he divided this part of the tools and equipment separately to take care of it, this part cannot be moved, and it is used to implement the guarantee of this year's government construction and development plan.

So when people from all walks of life crowded the Government Council, he was not anxious.

When he appeared in the conference room with confidence, his hands were pressed weakly, and the noisy scene suddenly quieted down, and countless pairs of eyes were staring at the half-hundred-year-old man like 'hungry and thirsty'.

"Ladies and gentlemen, I am aware of the intentions, and now I will begin to announce the distribution plan. ”

The staff set up the blackboard, Wang Zhi took a piece of chalk and stepped forward, and sorted the materials that could be distributed according to the list, and wrote them down one by one, ranging from toilet paper, matches, tickles, ear spoons, socks, slippers, to all kinds of wasteland construction tools, machines and equipment, which are very complete.

Everyone's eyes have a new focus, and the pen in their hands is getting bigger and bigger with the board area, and they are also writing and drawing, calculating how much they can get from these quotas.

Of course, these materials can be temporarily credited, but at the latest of two years, they will have to be returned to the government with principal and interest.

He Long and Han'er were squeezed into the corner, and they couldn't see it very clearly.

Han'er suddenly became agitated and said, "Boss, use this, I brought it before I came." ”

A delicate reading glasses were handed over from Han'er's big rough hand.

"Hey, isn't this the third brother's reading glasses, how can it be in your hands?" He Long's tone was suddenly stern.

"Don't be angry, the third master deliberately left it when he returned with the fleet, tell me not to tell you, I'm afraid you don't want to. Han'er was a little afraid of He Long's attitude, and spoke a little fast.

Hearing this, He Long's brows stretched slightly, and after taking the glasses and looking at them, he gently put them on his face, and everything in front of him instantly became clear, just like when He Huan was still in Hejiazhuang more than ten years ago.

"My third brother is a good person, I am strict with you because I don't want to take advantage of others, we have received enough favors, and we don't know how to pay it back. ”

Han'er felt a little empathetic, nodded her head, lowered her head and folded her hands to count the debts owed over the years, which dispelled a lot of depression in He Long's heart.

"Come on, I'll remember the owner, I don't need you to show off. ”

"Hehe, I also have this strength, and the owner doesn't let me show off. Owner, quickly calculate how many shovels and forks we can divide this time, as well as the fishing nets that close the river, this is estimated that few people will fight with us. ”

When He Long heard this, he stopped chatting and calculated with his heart.

After Wang Zhi finished writing, he sat in the chair and rested for a while, and only after a few sips of tea did he regain his energy.

"Guys, that's all there is to it, and the list of all parties registered in the register is also well documented, don't be afraid of fraudulently claiming it, do it yourself. ”

Subsequently, the allocation amount calculated by the staff had been posted, and He Long followed the crowd two more steps forward, only then did he see the details of the materials he had shared.

"1,000 iron nails, 10 meters deep and 200 meters long customized fishing seedling nets, 20 feeding barrels, 2 feed mixing barrels, 2 pairs of trawl nets, 10 bags of cement (100 catties), 20 catties of salt (1 catty), five sets of household goods, 1 set of kitchen utensils, 10 sets of sanitary ware, 10 sets of daily chemicals, 10 catties of liquor......"

Every time He Long recorded the same, he unconsciously repeated it in his mouth, and Han'er on the side was surprised once.

"The owner, there are a lot of supplies this time, is it no longer available in the short term?"

Before He Long, who had come back to his senses, cleared his head, Wang Zhi at the top spoke.

"Ladies and gentlemen, there are a lot of materials this time, as well as a set of new steam units developed by the research institute, which Your Majesty assigned to the steel mill by name. Materials such as salt, matches, daily chemicals, and wine can be produced here after half a year, in other words, the follow-up supply will be mainly based on machinery and equipment, and with them, we can make everything that can be made locally. ”

This sentence resonated with everyone.

Some businessmen may wonder if everything can be made here, how can local goods be used to make huge profits?

His Majesty the King said that 'monopoly is the most profitable', and it is precisely because there are no auspicious commodities here that they make a lot of money and make a fortune. There are so many stunned people who want money and don't want to die, and dare to cross the sea after buying a few small boats.

As soon as the question was formed, he was robbed by Wang Zhi again.

"Don't worry about not making money after the product is produced and sold, it's just that the way to make money has changed, and the products sold have also changed. For example, you can still act as an agent for self-produced goods, and use the earned goods back to the country in exchange for a high price difference; for example, the special products in the two places are different, which cannot be made by the factory, and the exchange of what is available is the right way to make money, which you know better than me, and if you have any questions, you can consult the business branch. ”

This is also what Wang Xuan wants to say to the businessmen, opportunities to make money are everywhere, but the simplest, most direct and most violent industry has given way to rule the Southern Continent.

When Wang Xuan learned that Wang Zhi personally presided over the material distribution meeting and personally wrote a board book of more than 1,000 words, he was stunned for a while before he came to his senses, and he was furious and counted all the ministries and commissions of the small government council from beginning to end, and even the wolf cub raised by the kitchen chef was not spared.

He also didn't care about harming the pond fish, from Zhao Sheng, a kind elder who was also a minister and a father, to the old man who worked hard for the people all his life, and then to Aunt Liu, who cared for his brothers and sisters like a biological mother, passed away one after another, he had a knot in his heart.

Don't die anymore!

With each walk, he felt that he had one less point to rely on.

He didn't want to feel it, and it scared him, and it made him feel overwhelmed.

He's not a man in power, but he's afraid of uncontrolled helplessness, and he needs the security of being in control.

Wang Zhizi was also reprimanded by Wang Xuan, and it seemed that his face was gloomy, but in fact, everyone knew that His Majesty's care for Member Wang had reached an unparalleled level, and the honor was so high that he was afraid that he would be on par with Premier Zhang, who was far away in the north.

Although Wang Zhi was blamed by His Majesty of the younger generation, his heart was warm, which reminded him of his son's entrustment before leaving, which was verbose and down-to-earth.

On September 20, the materials that needed to be loaded back to the mainland were put into the warehouse.

According to the process, the logistics department signs after the inventory, and then the handling team can be loaded on the ship.

This time I went back, and it was not just as simple as going back.

The first batch of officials to come here should start a planned rotation, and those who are willing to move their families here will not be hindered, they are all auspicious land, as long as the subjects are willing, the king can only be supported.

The first list of returnees has come out, and one-third of the officials of government functional departments are listed, and the owners of each island can basically get a quota as long as they submit an application.

There are also quite a few people from the four ethnic groups, including the Tu nationality, and there are thousands of people who drag their families with them, some admire auspiciousness and want to settle down, some want to inspect and make plans again, and some want to study and contribute to their ideals.

These Wang Xuantong all came down, there are many beds, and there are enough.

Then there are the soldiers, there are many veterans, and they all have to be rotated.

The ashes of wounded soldiers and martyrs have to be transported back, not to mention the fallen leaves to return to their roots, at least let their families see each other for the last time.

When the combined fleet invaded, how many people died in Jixiang, and at that time, the Jixiang Wang clan was rain or shine, sending ashes from door to door.

It is the tradition of auspicious soldiers not to abandon or give up, and if these brothers are not brought back, the officers are afraid that they will not have the face to go back.

Finally, there is the captive of lust, George has eaten a lot better recently, and he is white and fat, and Wang Xuan has the idea of keeping him in the zoo to collect tickets.

In terms of treating the enemy 'ruthlessly', the mascot has reached a consensus in his genes.

"Calculate how many beds there are, try to bring all the ones you want to go back to, meet relatives and friends, and even if people settle here, their roots cannot be broken. ”

"Yes, the minister will do it. Wang Zhi responded, raised his leg and was about to go back to arrange, and the angry Wang Xuan almost said dirty words.

"You don't need to do this little thing yourself, and don't look at what time it is, go back and rest. After speaking, he turned his head to Yang Tao and ordered: "What are the people in the logistics department doing, let them go and hand over to the fleet, who can't do the data thing?"

Yang Tao went out with a smile and ordered, Wang Zhi also smiled and nodded to make amends, "The minister will go back to wash and rest, and Your Majesty will rest earlier." ”

"Wait, my eldest sister sent some wild ginseng and took a few to use. ”

Wang Zhi was about to excuse himself, but he was stopped by Wang Xuan's unreasonable big hand, and he had no choice but to go back to the bedroom with a box of three mountain ginseng.

September 24 is a good weather, just like when Wang Xuan set foot here, although the months are different, the sun is still shining, the wind is light.

"Your Majesty, the weather is good today, and Miss Xiaoya must have thought that you were going to see her. ”

The atmosphere was a little cold, and Yang Tao chattered again, like an early magpie, tireless.

In front of the familiar courtyard again, the small courtyard on the opposite side of the stream was cleaned very neatly, and even the wildflowers and weeds were carefully cared for, and the spirit was very good.

Although Xiaoya is from the Mu tribe, the land where her brother often works has been handed over to the internal guards to take care of, but the people of the Tu tribe are hired.

Eventually, after interrogating the survivors of the original Pioneers, they searched the designated location and found only half of the human skull nearby, buried in this clothed mound, and nothing else was found.

Xiaoya's brother couldn't survive the torture, vomited something, and was finally tortured to death.

There were only two people alive who insulted Xiaoya's corpse, and they were scraped to death by Yang Tao in front of Wang Xuan, in front of George and other generals, and the minced meat was fed to the crocodiles of the armor clan in the east.

Wang Xuan folded some wild flowers and inserted them on Xiaoya's mound on the south side of the courtyard on the riverside, which was very neat.

"Xiaoya, I see you're here...... I'm sorry I couldn't find the others, I'm sorry. ”

This time, as usual, Yang Tao and the other internal guards were far away, and they couldn't bear to disturb or feel this desperate thought.

Listen to the birds, smell the flowers, good.

"I'm leaving, I wanted to take you back with me, but after thinking about it, I still don't think it's appropriate.

This is the place where you were born and raised, here are your fathers and brothers, and here are your relatives and friends who are far away in the south.

I haven't met them, but there must be one of them that you care about.

I'm sorry I didn't tell my wife about us.

I know you don't care about that, but I still can't let go, so I'll tell her everything between us when I go back this time.

Don't worry, your sister Qing'er is a gentle and kind woman, not quarrelsome or jealous, gentle and virtuous, you will like it when you see it.

If she sees you, she will be overjoyed......

Jixiang is a good place, I will definitely let you see it when I have the chance, it is really beautiful. ”

Wang Xuan said that he was tired, so he simply lay on the ground, rested his head on his hands, closed his eyes, and the fragments in his brain kept being pieced together, and a roughly complete film took shape, which was the result of countless memories.

Every time I come here, my thoughts are like stubborn seeds that are not afraid of all difficulties and obstacles, and they persistently hold up a piece of the sky after overcoming thorns and thorns all the way, and then take root and sprout.

"Don't be afraid, I'll come to see you from time to time,

Hehe, when I think of the scene where the courtiers desperately persuaded me, my scalp is a little numb.

Although I am sometimes bored, I also feel the warmth of the spring sun, like your smiling face, just the youth we get along.

I'm gone, you're going to be well,

I'll be fine, too.

You said that you are still waiting for me here in the next life,

I promise you,

Whether there is an afterlife or not,

I'll come early and wait for you where I am.

We

See you or leave!"
