Su Qi'an and Xie Cang were taken by the overseers and came to a place called the Dongchang Ship Area.

Here, thousands of craftsmen and strong men are divided into four parts, and the East Factory Ship Area is the main part of the specially built hull, which is the most critical factory area.

There were twice as many overseers as the other three shipyards, whips in their hands, fierce eyes on everyone who came and went.

As long as there is laziness and ineffective work, they will be beaten immediately.

These overseers are not ordinary thugs, they are not bad, and they really have to deal with these unarmed craftsmen, strong men, and fight a dozen of them, there is no problem.

Su Qi'an and Xie Cang are not craftsmen and do not know much about shipbuilding, so they are classified into a group of coolies who specialize in handling construction materials, to put it bluntly, a group of coolies.

There are a lot of coolies like this, and most of them are strong and strong.

Under the supervision of the overseer, Su Qi'an obediently followed the coolies to carry them.

There was no intention of resisting, and they were very cooperative, and the overseers who watched this scene were slightly satisfied, and the whip raised in their hands was slowly lowered.

For Su Qi'an, as long as he wants, he can give up this private shipyard 100%.

But Su Qi'an's purpose is not this, from his point of view, there is definitely more than one private and hidden shipyard like this in Yuezhou.

can have such a scale, not so unscrupulously under the guise of verifying identity, wantonly arresting people and tricking them into working as coolies.

Even if it is some famous masters, they are all caught together, and there is no fear at all.

This shows that the owner behind this shipyard has a lot of background, and secretly building so many civilian ships is definitely a big deal.

If you don't figure out the situation and do it, even if you destroy this small workshop, at most, when the limelight passes, it will definitely be like a burned weed, and the spring breeze blows and grows again.

Therefore, now we can only remain patient and observe silently.

On the way to Su Qi'an, in the team not far in front of them, several coolies, obviously physically exhausted, fell down all of a sudden, and the goods of the small cart overturned at once.

This scene directly made the overseer scold, and it was directly a coolie who fell to the ground with a whip.

"Hmph, a bunch of useless waste, don't pretend to be dead, get up for the uncle, delay the process, and take the life of your waste."

The whip struck the coolie hard, and with each whip, the skin suddenly opened, and the coolie curled up, struggled, and got up tremblingly.

At this time, Su Qi'an gave the veteran behind him a look, and the next moment, seven or eight people rushed directly over and hurriedly helped up the overturned cart.

Xie Cang hurriedly stepped forward, made a flattering look, and said to the overseer, "Don't be so angry, it's not worth it to be angry, it's still important to be angry, or the progress of the project is important, so let's speed up the progress."

Looking at the group of veterans, he helped the small cart up cleanly, the anger on the overseer's face eased slightly, glanced at Xie Cang, and said.

"Well, it's still your kid who knows each other better, I know you, you're new today, yes, you just came here with this awareness, work hard, and you'll be indispensable in the future."

"Then thank you for the promotion." Xie Cang smiled and nodded.

"You waste, you can't catch up with a new arrival, you have seen it, this time I will give you a chance, if there is a next time, I can't spare you."

Under Xie Cang's flattering persuasion, the overseer walked away scoldingly.

Xie Cang turned around, and Su Qi'an and the two hurriedly helped the fallen coolie up to help him continue to work.

Although the man was scarred, there was a sense of perseverance on his face, and he expressed his gratitude to Xie Cang and Su Qi'an for their help.

Through understanding, Su Qi'an knew that this person's name was Xiao Si, not very old, about thirty or so, and before he was arrested, he was a technical craftsman under one of the four major shipyards in Yuezhou.

Working in a regular shipyard, life was not bad, but Xiao Si had a problem, he liked to drink, and some time ago, because of drinking, something bad happened, which caused an accident on the military ship he was responsible for building.

Later, he was directly kicked out of the shipyard, positively

Worried about his livelihood in the future, he ran into a group of officials, saying that his identity was suspicious and arrested him here.

It stands to reason that with Xiao Si's skills, he should do his old job, but the people here directly treat him as a coolie and don't even give him a chance to get close to the ship.

Not only Xiao Si, but also the people who came with him, whether they were craftsmen or anything, they were all dealt with according to coolies.

"It seems that this private shipyard will not be safe to use for craftsmen who don't know the roots." Su Qi'an said secretly.

In contact with Xiao Si, Xiao Si also knew the identities of Su Qi'an and Xie Cang.

He was not very surprised, but with a somewhat wry smile, he whispered, "I advise the two famous masters to keep a low profile, here, only a low profile can save your life."

Xiao Si's kind reminder that Su Qi'an and Xie Cang naturally understood that before they were caught here, he knew that if they dared to kill the famous lord, or even the nobles with the title, they would kill them, and these people themselves were no different from outlaws.

To be able to arrest people under the noses of the high-level officials in Yuezhou and build this kind of private shipyard, it is difficult not to say whether there is collusion between Yuezhou officials, and it can be determined that the officials of Yuezhou officialdom should be rotten.

Su Qi'an, Xie Cang and others were arrested and worked as cattle and horses in this hidden private shipyard for more than ten days.

In the past ten days, they have experienced what it means to be inappropriate and what it means to be at the bottom of society.

In the past 10 days or so, at least 20 people have been killed, and more than half of these 20 people have just been arrested and are not convinced.

As a result, there was no accident, he was directly killed, no matter what identity he was, as long as he came here, he had only one identity, tired cattle and horses.

If you want to survive, you have to be obedient.

In the past ten days, Su Qi'an and Xie Cang have been dressed fairly well from the beginning, and now they are no different from low-level beggars.

The clothes have long been torn, the hair has long been scattered, and the faces are black, and if you don't look closely, you think they are a group of beggars.

Although they looked embarrassed, getting along with these coolie craftsmen for more than ten days allowed Su Qi'an and Xie Cang to grasp a lot of information.

The owner behind this private shipyard has a large background, and it is likely that he is one of the high-level people in Yuezhou.

Moreover, the purpose of building a large number of ships is to make an early escape for the high-level of Yuezhou.

Once the wartime is unfavorable, the Yuezhou *** will take these civilian ships in advance and flee quickly.

Of course, the authenticity of this news remains to be verified, after all, it is the speculation of the low-level coolies, which is somewhat groundless.

After all, if you really want to build a ship and run away in advance, this kind of construction can be done in less than a month by an ordinary shipyard.

It is not enough to secretly arrest Zhuang Ding, looking at the scale of this private shipyard, it is obviously more than that of ordinary shipyards, and looking at the meaning of his construction, it has not stopped at all, and the time of the shipyard's existence will not be too short.

Therefore, what the truth is remains to be verified.

Of course, more than ten days of cattle and horses gave Su Qi'an and Xie Cang the biggest gain.

That is, in a few days, the coolies in the East Factory Ship Area will come to a big ***.

This kind of secret information can be said to be confidential, and it is not Su Qi'an and Xie Cang's turn to know.

This is thanks to Xiao Si's revelation and matchmaking.

The cattle and horses of more than ten days are not done in vain, they work hard and complain, without any shelf, unlike other famous masters, even if they are caught here, the arrogance on their faces is very full, and they don't take them in their eyes at all.

Only Su Qi'an and Xie Cang mingled with them, and they didn't dislike them at all.

This kind of equality and people-friendly style made the coolies of Dongchang Shipyard accept the two.

Through Xiao Si, gradually, I learned the news of ***.

In the Dongchang ship area, Su Qi'an didn't mean to stop it, so he could use them to test the water and see if he could blow up some big fish behind the scenes.

Once the coolies in the Dongchang ship area are ***, the effect is absolutely great, after all, the coolies in the Dongchang ship area occupy almost three of the entire coolies

One in one.

This kind of large-scale ***, it is difficult to stop it by relying on the supervisors of more than 100 people.

Take advantage of this opportunity to let Su Qi'an see the strength of this private shipyard.

As time passed, another three days passed, and today is the agreed shipyard***.

Many coolies in the Dongchang ship area work silently as usual.

Until a few small carts, in front of the eyes of the overseers, overturned again, and all of a sudden, three overseers jumped out of the high platform in an instant.

They didn't say a word, and they lashed out at the coolies who overturned.

With their eyes, how can they not see that these people are doing it on purpose, and the purpose is nothing more than resentment in their hearts and deliberate provocation.

The overseers are not accustomed to this kind of provocation, and will respond with the most severe lashes.

The piercing sound of breaking wind, accompanied by the angry scolding of the overseer, echoed in the open space of the factory.

It's just that the overseers who were whipped this time did not expect that when they were punished, they were surrounded by a large number of coolies.

The overseers noticed this, looked up violently, looked at the coolies who surrounded them, raised their whips, and cursed angrily.

"Fuck me, what to see, a bunch of garbage, want to rebel, don't want to die, give me back to my post!"

Immediately afterwards, the whip in his hand was slammed at the coolies who surrounded him.

Only this time, instead of retreating, a coolie who feared them with anger on his face, with a whip on his face, grabbed the whip from the overseer's hand.

The rest of the people rushed up and pushed the overseer to him, and at this time, I don't know who shouted.

"Brothers, these guys don't treat us as human beings, and it is death to do things silently, and it is also death to resist, so they simply break the jar and break it."

"Follow me!"

It was this slogan that directly ignited the anger in the hearts of the coolies in the Dongchang ship area.

Everyone put down their work, used the materials for building the ship as weapons, and rushed towards the overseers on the high platform.

Those who did not have the appropriate weapons and materials even used the small cart as a siege vehicle and slammed it towards the high platform.

For a while, the entire Dongchang ship area began to be in chaos, and *** began.
