The next day, Bai Guoshi didn't get up until very late. He heard from the brother on duty at the entrance of the group that a girl had come to see him because he had rejected her before he even got up. [No pop-up novel website] Bai Guoshi thought that this was probably Zhao Xue - he came to him early in the morning, needless to say, he wanted to go to the cafeteria to have breakfast together. This was a great opportunity to increase emotional communication, but he actually missed it. He knocked his head in frustration.
Another depressing thing is that after I came out of the committee yesterday, my head was dizzy due to the long argument. As a result, Wei Aiwen asked me for cigarettes, and I muddleheadedly gave him the whole pack that I had only smoked yesterday. He is in pain, that is a package of hard China - the current price of a package of hard China is ridiculously high. Fortunately, I brought a whole one with me.
"What a bad luck." Bai Guoshi thought and felt depressed. He didn't even bother to eat breakfast. He took out a piece of disgusting grass No. 5 rice cake from his pocket. This was the standard ration during field operations, but everyone didn't like it. I love to eat, so I kept a lot of it.
Chewing the rice cakes that he seemed to never be able to swallow, Bai Guoshi came to the exploration team office. As soon as he sat down and poured a glass of water to swallow the rice cakes, Liu Zheng came in and laughed a few times when he saw him. Bai Guoshi was puzzled.
"Xiao Bai, Zhao Xue will be officially transferred to our department from today."
"Really?!" Bai Guoshi stood up in excitement and almost choked on the rice cake.
"Don't get excited, of course it's true." Liu Zhenghan smiled and reassured him, "With a combination of men and women, the work won't be tiring. Xiaobai, you have to seize the opportunity-"
Just as Bai Guoshi was about to say something, he saw Zhao Xue bumping in and saying, "I heard that I'm being kept at the base and won't be allowed to go out on missions!"
"Well, haha, yes," Liu Zheng nodded, "your legs are not good, so you are not suitable for such remote field activities. When our exploration team increases in size, we need someone to guard it, and we can't resort to empty city tactics. This also combines with your Your IT expertise is to analyze and organize intelligence. Your job is very important. First, provide them with a mission briefing before each remote team leaves, so that they can have a preliminary understanding of some general information about the target to be reconnoitred; second, after they return, summarize The collected intelligence will be written into a report and submitted to the Intelligence Committee. There are still a lot of administrative matters to be handled, which is a heavy burden, but don’t worry, my comrades and I will try our best to help you." Zhao Xue said thoughtfully: "It is so important. …”
Seeing that she had been fooled, Liu Zheng quickly said that I had to leave first, and you were busy. Create opportunities for Bai Guoshi.
Bai Guoshi suddenly felt that he was a very lucky person. Could it be because of the merit accumulated by giving him a pack of cigarettes for free? Wei Aiwen is not an old woman crossing the road.
Just as he was thinking about how to speak, Zhao Xue had already spoken: "I'll look for you in the morning. Why are you still sleeping?"
"I was exhausted yesterday. You don't know how late the executive committee meeting was," Bai Guoshi couldn't help bragging about himself, talking about how impressive his report at the meeting was. He also added such things as his solemn point out that the executive committee was The executive committee humbly accepted the problem of the committee not paying enough attention to long-range exploration, repeatedly exclaiming that there were capable people in the exploration team, and in the end even large-scale exploration adventures became his proposal.
Bai Guoshi felt guilty while talking about it, but when he saw his smile and the look of admiration in his eyes, he couldn't help but continue to brag.
After they had finished talking, Bai Guoshi asked: "What did you want from me this morning?"
"I received the transfer order this morning. I still have a lot of things in the IT department, and I want you to help me move them."
"Okay, I'll go right away." Bai Guoshi hurriedly volunteered.
The next day, all personnel, including the new personnel, redistributed the groups to try to balance the strength of the two groups. Use the old to bring the new model for training. Since the recent mission was to follow a large group of people on an island-circling expedition, the direct quality requirements for the team members were not so high, and the exploration team gained valuable breathing time for training. The contents formulated by Liu Zheng mainly include:
1. Wilderness survival training, basic wilderness survival training, combines experiences and lessons learned from actual combat missions.
2. Basic individual tactics, including grappling techniques, etc., are mainly taught by people from the special reconnaissance brigade.
3. Basic team coordination tactics, including cross-covering, etc., with special emphasis on the coordination training of guns and crossbows.
4. Professional knowledge of flora, fauna, minerals and meteorology.
5. Navigation adaptation training. Each group has to go to Bopu for rowing and swimming training.
After several days of training, everyone's various levels have been greatly improved - thanks to the long-term labor after D-Day, no matter how useless an otaku is now, he has good physical strength. With physical strength, what he teaches is nothing more than It’s about skills and synergy.
Liu Zheng took the team to Gaoshanling, Lingaojiao and other places to conduct a series of practical survival training in the mountains and at sea, and also engaged in a confrontation between the two groups AB. In addition to honing the skills of newcomers, it also has the effect of enhancing feelings and improving morale.
Wen Desi went to the shipyard every day these days to supervise the construction of their first ketch. The blueprint of this ship was built based on the line drawing of the famous "America" in history: a displacement of 170 tons, a total length of 30 meters, a width of 7 meters, a draft of 3 meters, two masts and a fore-and-aft sail. Even the captain only needs 9 people to operate it.
Since this ship was the first large-scale ship built by the Crossing Group itself, it was called "Ship Zero" before it was officially launched and named to show its status from scratch.
The shipwrights of Baitu Lai are the main force in shipbuilding. Building a large Western ship is a brand new challenge for the shipwrights. It is also a test for Wen Desi, and it is a test for the overall industrial level and collaboration ability of the travelers. .
Because no one had any experience in launching a 170-ton ship, the shipbuilders of New Spacetime adopted a more appropriate and safer dry dock shipbuilding process. Although the project was huge, it would be of great significance to the shipbuilding industry after its completion.
The dock was dug manually and mechanically. It is not a pit entirely on the shore. Strictly speaking, it is a semi-open structure. Most of it was excavated on the beach, and the other part was made of wooden piles and bricks in the sea. It is surrounded by stone works. The walls and bottom of the dock are reinforced by pouring bamboo-reinforced gravel concrete.
It is relatively easy to solve the problem of water pumps for docks: Not only does Chuanhuan Group have its own equipment such as water pumps and water pumps, but modern ships such as the Fengcheng Ship are almost equipped with several of them. After the steam engine is successfully trial-produced, there will be no problem in using it to pump water. .
The lock is made of iron-framed wooden boards. A large amount of high-quality wood was consumed to build the lock. The lock also used shipbuilding caulking technology to increase the water density between the board walls. The gate is opened and closed by the winch traction rope. In order to drive the winch and water pump, the mechanical department specially manufactured a boiler and supporting steam engine for the dock: a fifty-horsepower horizontal steam engine. In addition to opening and closing the gate, it can also drive the sawmill during the day. Wood, pumping water for the dock at night - the locking of the dock gate is not very good.
In order to build the No. 0 ship, Chuanchuang Group has begun to gather resources on a large scale since the beginning of the year. The Ministry of Machinery Industry has specially set up ironworking workshops in the shipyard to manufacture various iron and copper parts for ships. Some large metal parts are manufactured by metallurgical factories.
The Wenlan River is responsible for transporting a large number of materials: bulk and heavy materials are transported downstream by floating rafts, while lighter materials are transported to the shipyard by two-wheeled vehicles, manpower or horses.
The shipbuilding timber was seized from Baitu Village and had been fully dried for several years. These timbers basically come from Fujian - Lingao cannot provide so many large timbers locally. Because the No. 0 ship is a trial product, in addition to the use of iron wood in key parts such as the mast and rudder, a large amount of cheap fir is used. In addition to wood, Baitu Village also provided tung oil, hemp silk, oyster shell ash, hemp rope, and a large number of iron parts-including four-claw anchors. Ready-made accessories greatly shortened the shipbuilding period, otherwise the time traveler would have been busy for several months just collecting and manufacturing these things - Wen Desi often secretly felt lucky to have occupied Baitu at that time.
The shipyard has an abundant labor force, the main force being villagers who have been forcibly relocated from Baitu Village. They have all participated in shipbuilding to a greater or lesser extent, and can directly engage in shipbuilding projects with a little guidance. Wen Desi focused on cultivating craftsmen with a foreign surname named Zhang Jiji, and took him to work in the shipyard every day. Zhang Jiji is now the chief shipbuilder of the shipyard. Because he has learned many Western shipbuilding techniques and techniques from Wen Desi, everyone is very energetic.
In contrast, the children of Lin and Lu's family were a little frightened and obviously absent-minded. These two families, especially the Lin family, are a large and powerful family and have controlled the village administration of Baitu for a long time. They have a strong reputation among immigrants from Baitu Village. The Executive Committee is very wary of clan power and will never allow this phenomenon to occur within their direct jurisdiction. So as soon as the housing in Xinbaitu Village was completed, Wu De immediately began to dismember the two families.
Lin Gonglao stood at the door of the quarantine camp office. The young face was distorted and looked resentful. The more than ten children of the same race around him all looked gloomy - they had just learned the results of the assessment and the whereabouts of the distribution.
In the past few days, all male immigrants in Baitu Village who are over 16 years old have undergone a skills assessment. Since the Lin family is a shipbuilder, the assessment content is various skills related to shipbuilding: including carpentry, twin-line work, iron work, tin work, turning work, oyster shell work, decoration work, carving work, etc. Peng work, cable work, cable work, paint work, five-ink work, etc. basically cover all the contents of ancient ship craftsmanship. The assessment content and specific scoring were done by Zhang Jiji, but Zhang Jiji was not face-to-face, so as not to offend people's feelings. From his regular contacts, Wen Desi knew that Zhang Jiji had some complaints about the Lin family's past control of village administration and misappropriation of most of the shipbuilding profits. As long as he had no scruples, he would not be merciful to the Lin family! ~!
