Chapter 80: Reclamation of the Island

"Daughter-in-law, how did you know about torpedoes?"

What does it mean?

This is suspicious of her.

But it doesn't matter, she's already prepared, and it's not false at all.

"I've heard the fifth brother talk about it."

The fifth brother, Jian Zheng'an, Ye Linxing's companion, is now on the other side of the East China Sea.

Unlike Ye Linxing, who switched from the border army to the navy, her fifth brother entered the navy directly.

"Fifth brother told you this?"

Jian Yuelan smiled, "I didn't say it, but it was rare for him to go home once, and he was drunk by the eldest brother and them, and he lamented the difficulties of the navy." โ€

Speaking of this, she pretended to sigh, "Actually, I don't know torpedoes, but I know the English alphabet." โ€

"Do you think, the iron lump that the fishermen salvaged from the sea happened to have English letters and Arabic numerals, if it were you, what would be your first reaction when you saw this thing?"

She threw the question to Ye Linxing, and the man lowered his eyes and thought for a moment, and said seriously, "Something is wrong, there is something wrong with this iron lump." โ€

"Not really."

Jian Yuelan said with a smile, "I saw this thing at the time and reacted like you, but because I went to send things to Seventh Brother and Seventh Sister-in-law, and entered their factory, I knew at a glance that this was not a product of my country." โ€

Spreading her hands, she said innocently, "It just so happened that the fishermen said that they were going to send the torpedo to the purchasing station, and I said in my heart that no matter whether this thing is useful or not, we have to take it down first." If it's useful, it's naturally the best, and if it's useless, I can't lose a few dollars. โ€

"It turns out that my decision is correct, as soon as the patrol arrived, they recognized this thing as it was not simple, and then Bai Ye and they came. If I don't know the importance of this thing, then my consciousness is too low. โ€

One question and one answer became a perfect answer, Ye Linxing's doubts were completely dispelled, he yawned, buried his face in her neck socket and muttered, "Daughter-in-law, I'm so tired, you can sleep with me." โ€

Jian Yuelan was not happy, mainly because she didn't wake up long after taking a nap, so she wasn't sleepy at all.

"You go to sleep, I'm not sleepy now."

"Then you accompany me, and when I fall asleep, you are doing your own thing."

"Yes."

This is not a requirement that cannot be met by violating the principles, and Jian Yuelan readily agreed.

Ye Linxing was really tired, and he fell into a deep sleep after lying on the bed for less than two minutes, snoring loudly.

Even when everyone was asleep, their hands were still holding her hands and interlocking their fingers.

She didn't rush to leave, but waited a few minutes before pulling out her hand and sitting in front of the embroidery frame to embroider the family photo.

The embroidery stopped, and it was time for dinner, she put away the embroidery thread and went to the kitchen to make a rich dinner, the original intention was to make up for the man, which Cheng wanted to call him to eat after it was done, good guy, he couldn't wake up when he slept so deeply.

Helpless, she could only save the food for him and wait for him to wake up before eating.

Bai Ye, who had eaten dinner, came over to visit the door, saw that she was pulling weeds, and immediately came over to take over her work and asked her if she had eaten, and after getting the answer of eating, she looked around, but did not see Ye Linxing, and asked, "Lao Ye is not at home, why didn't he come to pull the weeds and ask you to pull them?" โ€

Jian Yuelan thumped her waist, "I'm still asleep, I can't wake up when I shout." โ€

He groaned, and seriously suggested, "You can wait for him to wake up and let him pull it out." โ€

"What's wrong with you pulling it out."

Ye Linxing, who was almost awake from sleep, heard his words before his brain fully woke up, and couldn't help but open the window and said, "Pull some grass for my house, and you will be unhappy with it, as reparation, you have to pull it out today." โ€

Bai Ye, "ยทยทยทยทยทยท"

What did I say, to be scolded like this by him.

"This is your garden, not mine."

Bai Ye didn't want to go back, Ye Linxing sighed, "You sent it to the door yourself, I'll go to eat first, and then I'll come to pull it with you after eating." โ€

Bai Ye was a good coax, and as soon as he heard this, he immediately urged, "Hurry up and eat, and we'll pull it out together after eating." โ€

Then, Ye Linxing ran out with dishes and chopsticks to eat while chatting with him.

Jian Yuelan could see that Lao Bai came over to help pull the weeds by the way, and the real purpose was to gossip.

Gossip where did the fishermen find it.

"Yaw."

Speaking of this, Ye Linxing was also quite helpless, "The two fishing boats didn't know how to run to the archipelago. โ€

Jian Yuelan didn't know the specific location of the islands, but Bai Ye knew it in her heart, and she was suffocated when she heard his words, "Then it's really fateful that they can survive." โ€

The archipelago is far away from the island, and there are no people on the key side, and some are deserted islands one after another.

In addition, the islands at high tide at night will be flooded, leaving only one island tip, and sometimes even a small tip.

That's why they would give up such a large archipelago as a station.

"It can only be said that they are lucky, they fish around the archipelago during the day, and climb the trees at night to take turns to keep watch for the tide, and they are lucky not to encounter the high tide so that we can find it."

An archipelago that is easily submerged by the sea, and you know that fresh water resources are hard to come by.

"What did they drink during that time on the island?" Jian Yuelan asked curiously.

"Hydrate with coconut and dew."

Ye Linxing said succinctly, "When people are cornered, they will burst out with a strong will to survive, even if there is no coconut and dew, sea fish and seafood can keep them alive." โ€

I really can't do it, and I still have urine.

The living cannot be suffocated by urine.

As long as the tide does not flood the entire island, let alone ten days and half a month, these fishermen can survive if the time is extended.

He leaned over to Bai Ye and said softly, "Old Bai, I think it's a pity to give up that island. โ€

"It's a shame indeed."

Bai Ye said with a painful look, "But if the problem of the tide cannot be solved, it is blind, not to mention that there is no fresh water resources." โ€

"Actually, this problem is not unsolvable."

Jian Yuelan answered, and the two men who heard it looked at each other, and said in unison, "Is there a way to solve it?" โ€

"Yes."

She said calmly, "You can reclaim the sea and create an island." โ€

This kind of feat has not been done in their country, "Transporting stones and soil from the interior to the past, increasing the height of the island to solve the problem of high tide, and the island can become a garrison after transformation, and the marine resources over there must be very rich." โ€

After all, away from shallow waters, the large fish population will be very impressive.

"Freshwater resources are actually easy to solve, since it is an island, there must be underground freshwater, find geologists to explore, and then artificially drill wells to freshwater resources."

"However, if you do do this, it will be a huge amount of work."

But once this feat is accomplished, it will be of great help to our coastal defence.

The two men looked at each other and felt that this idea could be done.

However, they feel that it can be useless, and they still need the consent of their superiors.

Thinking of this, Bai Ye said, "Go and talk about it?" โ€

Ye Linxing held the bowl and thought for a moment, "Go, I'll go when I'm done eating." โ€

Two minutes later, after eating the dishes and chopsticks, he said to Jian Yuelan, "Daughter-in-law, you stay at home by yourself, and I will go out with Lao Bai." โ€

"Okay."

Then, the two shouted Qin Hongqi and Lu Changsheng and left.

The white sister-in-law who saw her man leave, and when the others left, they couldn't see the shadow and asked Jian Yuelan.

"Little Jane, what are they doing when it's dark?"

"Something."

She didn't say anything specific, and the white sister-in-law didn't ask.

"Can you go home at night?"

"I don't know."

Sister-in-law Bai was about to speak, and a strange voice came from not far away, "There must be something wrong with your men, how can you go out after dark, my men won't, it's not that I said a few sisters-in-law, you should really discipline your men well." โ€

"If they mess around outside, you'll be the one who suffers."

Hearing this, Jian Yuelan and her anger instantly came up, and they all turned their heads to look at the person who spoke.
