Chapter 58 Xinhuating County & Imperial Shipyard
Li Yong and everyone held a bonfire party on the beach that night, all of them had a great time, Li Lizhen and Li Yong sat on the beach and listened to the sound of the waves crashing together.
"It's as if it all can be stopped."
"Little fool, good things remain in our hearts later, even if we grow old in the future, think back to today's good times, remember, is the most beautiful."
Li Lizhen didn't understand his words very well, just leaned on his shoulder silently, remembering all this in his heart, the night was getting late, the bright moon on the sea was extraordinarily bright, the bonfire on the beach, the crazy people, the lovers who poured out their love to each other, as the curtain came down, everyone returned to their tents to rest contentedly, because Li Yong told them that tomorrow he would take them to see the sunrise from the sea, some people had not slept all night, some people were snoring, and in the early morning before dawn under Li Yong's toss, all the sleeping people were woken up, After some washing, they all sat together and waited for the first day when the sea level rose, and time passed little by little, when they saw a red light slowly illuminating from the sea level, which seemed to dispel the whole night.
"Look at it, it's so beautiful~"
A few girls covered their mouths and watched the red sun slowly rise from the sea, the magnificent scenery was the first time they saw it, Li Yong wanted to take out his mobile phone to take pictures, but unfortunately he didn't, those villagers wanted to look at these young ladies from big cities like fools, what is there to see, the brain is in the water, in the eyes of these villagers, it is better to see the sunrise that there is no than having a full meal in the morning, the registration of the villagers was completed yesterday, just those hundreds of households, all the registrations were registered in half a day, But there are very few skills and specialties that can be used, Li Yong also understands, after all, those who have some ability have already left, so after settling these first residents of Xinhua Pavilion City in the future, he will take everyone back to Suzhou. After Li Yong returned to Suzhou, he began to draw the planning map of Xinhuating County in the study, and drew everything he thought in his heart one by one.
Li Yong's planning plan was also completed two days before the arrival of his construction team, and this time there were more than 100 old craftsmen who had participated in the construction of Xishan, as well as 20 ghost team members.
"You've got it, you've worked hard."
"Childe, I can't say how hard it is, we are working day and night to make you wait for a long time."
"Okay, let's not talk about politeness, I have probably drawn this new Huating City planning map, you can take a look and give some advice."
More than a dozen craftsmen in charge looked around Li Yong's design drawings, roughly no different from Xishan, which is not difficult for them, after all, Xishan at that time can be much more difficult than now, to experience or not, to technology or not, can only take those people to slowly explore, now for these, they are handy, quickly read the planning drawing, they all said that there is no difficulty, as long as the materials are enough, the construction of the first phase is expected to be completed in two months, but the port and shipyard are not good, After all, they have never built such a building, this needs time for them to ponder, Li Yong also knows that the meal has to be eaten one bite at a time, it is impossible to become a big fat man in one bite, and he is not in a hurry, after all, those skilled shipbuilders and sailors with experience in going to sea are not enough.
"In this way, the first phase of Xinhua Pavilion City will be built first, and the place where the residents will live will be built, and then we will study the port together, and finally the shipyard."
The old craftsmen could only do so when they heard this, and with the help of ghosts and guards, they set up tents in a clearing, which would be their temporary residence and office area in the future, Li Yong walked on the beach in Huating County, thinking about what to do next.
"Tie Zhu, you inform the people from the Intelligence Bureau, let them send a message back to their hometown, and let Xue Rengui send a two-hundred-strong Xishan army here, I'm a little worried that someone will make trouble, and let Gundam arrange someone to come here and be responsible for handling daily affairs."
"Yes."
Li Tiezhu saluted Li Yong, and hurriedly ran to ride a horse to convey Li Yong's order to the person in charge of the intelligence bureau in Suzhou City, and Li Yong took a few craftsmen to the dilapidated fishing village, and the guards gathered all the villagers, Li Yong said to them.
"Fellow villagers, you also know me, what about you, you are unwilling to leave this land, agree to stay, gather you all today, that is, to start fulfilling my promise, now you go home and move out all the useful and valuable things in the house, temporarily move to the tent over there, these are my best craftsmen, they will give you a new house in two months, of course, you may know my rules, my rule is not to raise idlers, You young and energetic have to go to the construction site to help work, the old and weak women and children help cook and wash clothes or something, we will provide you with three meals a day, ten cents a day, and the workshop that will be built in the future will also give priority to you and your family to enter, but if in the process of work, some of you are lazy and slack off, then don't blame me for not being ugly, I will drive these people out mercilessly, not even compensation, do you understand? ”
The fishermen, who were dressed in tatters, were also very confused when they heard this, but when they heard that they had three meals a day and a salary for their work, they were naturally very happy, and they went back to their broken huts to put away the things they thought were valuable, and then followed the guards to the outside of the neat rows of tents, and then lined up one after another, and several ghost team members at the gate outside the tents guarded the gate to maintain order at the scene.
"You will live in this simple living area from this day onwards, then you have all listened carefully, the camp must be kept clean, no open defecation, no littering, do you see those wooden barrels? That's for you to throw the garbage inside, you have to go to the thatched house, the wooden house on the left is the men's thatched house, the right one is the women's thatched house, if we find you defecating in the open, littering, a fine of ten cents, you supervise each other, if you find that someone violates the law, you can report to us, as long as the investigation is true, the fine of ten wen will be rewarded to the whistleblower, in addition, in the future, everyone is not allowed to drink raw water, violators must be fined ten wen, must wash their hair and bathe every day, violators are fined ten wen, and finally, anyone who commits adultery in the camp will be killed! Do you understand everything? ”
After listening to these things that the villagers were used to, why couldn't they get here? But now people take care of their own meals a day, and they also work for wages, these things are all trivial, they are all simple fishermen, the ghost team leader guarding the gate looked at these villagers who did not answer, and made a gesture to the two ghost team members on the side.
"You all understand, now start lining up here, read the name to him to get two sets of clothes and your identity waist card, you have to keep the waist card with you, if you lose it, report it immediately, the first time it will be reissued for free, and the second will charge a production fee of ten wen each time, and finally the clothes you are wearing will be thrown away in the bathhouse over there after entering the camp, let's start."
"Zhang Duoyu."
"This."
"Zhang Mancang."
“……”
One of the villagers was recited and walked out, in fact, the list was read according to the household registration they had just started, according to the population of each household, if there was only one person in the family, they would arrange to live with other bachelors, six people in a tent, if there was a family, according to the family in a tent, those villagers with new clothes in their hands, felt tears flowing, they had not seen new clothes for many years, after entering the camp they began to be brought to two huge tents, The two large tents were twenty meters apart, and in front of each tent stood two soldiers wearing black armor helmets and masks, very different from those outside who wore black clothes and black masks from the nose down, these soldiers held the horse lance in one hand and the hilt of the long knife at the waist in the other, majestic.
"The women are over there, the men are here, each person receives a piece of soap, the use of the soap is to wipe it directly on the body with water, and then clean the instant noodles with water, twenty people go in each time, after entering, throw your current clothes into the wooden barrel inside and are not allowed to take it away, when we come out, we find that it is not clean, it will make you re-know that it meets the standard, which is also your daily standard in the future, go in."
Those villagers did not dare to be disobedient, looking at these soldiers armed to the teeth, their feet were soft, the villagers each received a piece of soap and threw their torn clothes into the wooden barrel, there were twenty large wooden barrels in it, and there was a large pool in the middle, and there were several wooden scoops for scooping water next to the pool, which was used for them to add water, and the water in the pool was lukewarm, and the villagers began to wash it seriously, and when they used what kind of soap, they were all startled, and they thought they were poisoned, There are also a few men who ran out with bare buttocks, so frightened that the women who were still queuing outside covered their eyes and screamed, and the consequence was that they were directly kicked back by the black army, and they knew that these were normal reactions when soap washed their bodies, and they also smelled the faint fragrance of soap, and they were relieved, thinking that it was impossible for people to poison them for their broken households, bucket after bucket of clean warm water under the effect of soap, clean the villagers who were dirty, and those who washed their bodies, The villagers in clean new clothes, with their wives and children, were excited, and then what made them unbelievable was that when they walked into the clean and tidy tents, they were better than their original broken thatched huts, although the beds were marching beds, but they were also better than their thatched beds on the ground, not to mention those folding chairs and tables, there were cups for them to drink water and dinner trays for eating, there were quilts and pillows on the marching bed, and a little girl took his father's hand, innocently looking at everything inside, Because she had never seen these things before, she asked her father curiously.
"Dad, what are these? It's so beautiful, can you use it? ”
The man picked up his young daughter and kissed her scented hair, two lines of tears streaming down his eyes.
"Yes, you can use all of these."
"Okay, I'm so happy, I don't know if there are slugs, hehe~"
Seeing his daughter's happy appearance, the man muttered.
"Mother, child, how nice it would be if you were still alive......"
Every family who stayed in the tent had a different mood, but more people cherished what was in front of them, everything that happened they thought it was in a dream, they began to get out of the tent, found former neighbors or friends, and began to visit each other's tents, and finally found that everyone was the same, those patrolling black-armored soldiers did not disturb these villagers, just patrolled silently according to the patrol route, and those villagers found that those black-armored soldiers did not have any ill will towards them, as long as they did not violate the rules of the campand they won't even bother with them.
"It's time to start eating, take your rice plates and bowls, go to the big tent over there to line up, don't cut the queue to maintain order, if someone cuts the queue to make trouble, cancel the meal, the food in it is enough, not enough can be added, but it can't be wasted and packed."
Those villagers took the rice plates and chopsticks in the tent, dragged their families to the outside of the canteen and began to line up to enter, looking at the big pot inside, vegetables, meat, and steaming rice, and even hot soup, the villagers who had eaten the food sat on the table inside, eating the half-fat pork, many people felt crying, some of them had not even eaten meat for several years, this meat was so fragrant, the person who cooked said while cooking for the villagers.
"Everyone eats slowly, if it's not enough, then come and fight, but you must eat as much as you can, you can't waste it, you all know the value of food, so you have to cherish it."
The scenes that happened in the temporary camp were still the beginning of the good life of the poor people, and Li Yong and a few craftsmen came to a tidal flat with a rice plate, eating and discussing at the same time.
"You have also seen that our shipyard will be built here, the Imperial Shipyard, we have no experience in building this, so we have to explore, I have found some old shipwrights on the coast, they will arrive in a few days, how to build this shipyard, we have to think about it, because this is not to build those small boats on the river, but to withstand the huge waves and sail in the sea, not only to build warships that can fight, but also to build cargo ships that can pull cargo and carry people, and even build merchant ships for others in the future, Therefore, how can the shipyard reserve the dock, that is, it cannot affect the construction of warships, and it cannot affect the civilian merchant ships, how many docks should be built? How big the dock is, we have to think about it. ”
The old craftsmen listened and thought it was very reasonable, because such a large shipyard, if they went on a business trip because of their calculations, the losses would be unpredictable.
"Childe, I think we should call the people from the research institute as well, after all, we have no concept of the size of the ship, which directly affects the size of the dock, why don't we start to do some basic design, and then wait for those old shipwrights to come, and then discuss how to change, and finally combine the size of the ship in the research institute, and then make the final draft, what do you think?"
Li Yong looked at these old craftsmen who had been trained, and felt very comforted, originally they didn't even know what Arabic numerals were, and then he wrote some books about the foundation of architecture with some memory, that book is a rough idea, many are not detailed, but in these old craftsmen are holding his book of heaven to study a new set of things, Li Yong feels what is called the spirit of craftsmen, these are a group of people, they have accumulated a lot of experience in the construction of Xishan, and boldly innovated, It also brought out some apprentices who like to learn architecture.
