The more Zhilinzhuang heard about it, the colder his heart became. He didn't expect that things would turn out like this for Gong Liuyi in the past seven or eight days. [No pop-up novel website] While worrying about how to solve the problem, another verbal conflict broke out between the candy cook and the laborers. The two sides disputed whether to make trouble, who would make trouble, and whether to "restore ancient laws."
There has always been a rift between the two groups due to income differences, but they were temporarily united by a common enemy. After Kan Tianxiong's work of "provoking the masses to fight against the masses" continued, the laborers felt that it was just work. The same is true in South China. There is no need to "restore the ancient methods." Restoring them will not do them any good.
Lin Zhuang thought in his mind: Mou Tianxiong's move was a blow to the bottom of the pot and had scattered the hearts of the people on his side. It was no longer possible to burn incense and start an incident at the agreed time.
If he cannot take action on time, Mr. Zhu will not be able to give an explanation, and Hai Yitang will no longer trust him in the future. For my own future plans, it would be better to go to South China. At least if I go there, I can still get a 28% rebate on the settlement fee. No matter whether I am in Xuwen or not, I will have the capital to do anything.
I made up my mind to go to South China that night to ask for a meeting with Mou Tianxiong.
Once a loser becomes a traitor, he will always spare no effort in betraying the interests of his former master. With his full support, the recruitment of unemployed workers in South China went smoothly. Liao Daxing had long followed Kan Tianxiong's instructions and prepared a large number of blank employment documents that had been certified in the "household housing" of the county government. They were fully covered with insurance and insurance. The workers only had to fill in their names and press their fingerprints. It's a contract. The whole process took less than half a day.
The storm calmed down so quickly. Needless to say, the laborers finally had a good life; even the pond-boiler who was most opposed to South China also succumbed to the general trend. After all, if the trouble is not successful, the "ancient method of making ponds" will not be restored. And I and my family always have to eat. Real needs are always the most powerful. at last. Except for a very small number of people who are unwilling to go to South China, most people have signed contracts with South China. Employed as a worker.
After everyone makes a contract to work. They were immediately given a Spanish silver dollar and half a stone to help them settle down, and then they were given a month's leave, asking them to go home first to settle their families.
Wen Tong's purpose in doing this is to avoid a sudden increase in the number of strangers in the factory. Although Huanan has lost a serious threat, the situation is still uncertain. There is no guarantee that among these workers, people from Haiyitang will take the opportunity to break into Huanan. Wreak havoc. Even if there is no such person, new workers have just entered the factory and there are not enough things to do for them. They are very quiet and lively, and it is easy to cause trouble.
So I simply sent them all back; it was too late to take care of this group of people after everything was sorted out.
A small number of workers who were homeless or whose hometowns were far away were first taken in by Huanan Tangxing and provided with shelter and food. However, Wen Tong also prepared a job for them, which was to help build a house on the Nanmentang open space outside the Huanan Sugar Factory. Ma Sanqiang, who built a simple "workers' village", became the leader of this group of workers because he had some prestige among the crowd.
This matter could be resolved smoothly, and even the county magistrate breathed a sigh of relief. After all, if there was a fight, it would also have an impact on the performance appraisal. What's more, the unemployed workers are still reasonable. Huanan was able to take the initiative to understand the situation and gained a lot of favor from the county magistrate.
Zhu Sanye smashed a cup. For several days. The whole Zhu residence was dead and silent, and not even a cough could be heard from up to down.
Lin Zhuang completely disappeared from Xuwen. According to some people, he received two hundred pieces of silver from Huanan and left Xuwen far away. Lest Mr. Zhu come to settle accounts with him, some people say he is already dead. He died on the county line from Xu Wen to Haikang, without a penny on his body. As for who killed him, some say that Mr. Zhu sent someone to kill him because he hated him for being a rebel; others say that he crossed the river in South China and demolished the bridge and killed him to silence him; or maybe he was killed by a strongman just because his money was exposed.
Sugar from Leizhou is still flowing into warehouses in South China. The air in Haiyi Hall has become extremely anxious. The owners and shopkeepers of various sugar shops who had previously obeyed Mr. Zhu's advice now had doubts about him. Although no one has raised it publicly yet, Mr. Zhu knows that this day is not far away.
If South China cannot be solved, not only will his reputation be ruined, but the Hai Yi Tang organization will also collapse in an instant.
Zhu An was in chaos: this was the first time he encountered such a tough and powerful opponent. The immediate solution is to resort to methods such as murder and arson. A quick cut of the knot may be able to end the existence of South China in one fell swoop. But the huge shadow that loomed behind Huanan made him hesitate and give up. If Huanan suffered such a big loss, the forces behind them would not give up. This is not about killing a small businessman from out of town who went to the countryside to buy sugar goods privately, nor is it about burning down a shipping company that was against him.
The news from Guangzhou gave him some comfort. Money in Guangzhou was tight recently, and it was difficult to mobilize one hundred thousand or two hundred thousand silver. I'm afraid that the bank deposits in South China are now at the last moment. As long as you grit your teeth and persist, maybe things will turn around.
Immediately, Guan Qiuhan sent another five thousand taels of silver to Gu Dachun, asking them to buy cannons and ships as soon as possible, expand the team, and completely blockade Hai'an Port. As long as the sugar boat can't get out, the silver boat can't get in. South China is still finished.
According to Zhu An's calculation, the South China Travelers also estimated at the meeting that the matter of breaking the naval blockade in seventy-seven would now be handled by the navy and there was no need for them to worry about it. The key is to deal with sabotage incidents such as arson. For people in this time and space: the simplest, most effective, and hardest to guard against is arson. One of the most common tactics used by tenants and slaves to rebel against their masters was arson. Arson is a serious crime, but it was difficult to pursue in ancient society. The entire South China Sugar Refinery is full of flammable materials, and the burning must be spectacular.
Fortunately, the terrain of the South China Sugar Refinery is pretty good. It stands alone on a wasteland, with a river on one side, an official road on the other, and most of the other side is covered by Nanmen Pond. Covered by a pool, the other side used to be a large open space, but now a "human village" is being built. There are far fewer areas that need to be focused on fortification. Meilin worked tirelessly to direct the continuation of infrastructure projects: building firewalls on all sides and digging fireproof ditches, especially a fireproof ditch between the workers' village and the sugar factory. Dig a water reservoir in the factory area for fire prevention. The area where bagasse is piled and dried is separated from the living area by a wind and fire wall. To ensure that even if a fire breaks out, other buildings will not be affected. Liao Dahua, a customary seamstress, has prepared fire-fighting equipment such as torches, lanterns, hook poles, buckets, axes, etc., and also purchased two hand-operated water trucks to allow the main militiamen to Part-time fire brigade, training every day.
Sister Bei has practiced and improved the original alert system and militia. Night duty and emergency contact means are arranged every night. An emergency assembly number for the young men in the South China factory was stipulated, and several nighttime assembly and fire-fighting drills were conducted. After a few days of this, the hastily assembled militia looked somewhat well-trained.
In addition to defense, preparations were also made for attack. With the guidance of Xiao Zhanfeng, a local, and the information obtained by Qiwei Escort Bureau. Finally, there is information learned from the mouths of recruited unemployed workers. Mou Tianxiong produced a fairly accurate background information. Including the map of Hai'an Street, the location and traffic conditions of various important landmarks, we also managed to obtain the plan structure of Haiyi Hall, the location of Zhu Sanye's residence, etc. Among them, Linzhuang made the greatest contribution.
Zhu An has also mastered his own living habits and activity patterns. He even used a digital camera with a ten-length focal length lens to take photos of the main members of Hai Yi Tang, their families and key members of his staff, and created a personal file.
A hall in the candy store was completely enclosed and became Beijie's combat command room. He and his special agents worked out several plans there. They are Case A, which killed Zhu An directly in an ambush on the road; Case B, which attacked his house and killed him; Case C, which set fire to Haiyi Hall; and Case D, which was a near-massacre.
The Ding case is the most terrifying: the special investigation team will kill all the main personnel of Hai Yi Tang within twelve hours, including the shop owners, shopkeepers, managers, and even their family members.
"It's too cruel, killing too many people," Wen Tong said.
"It's just a battle plan. Xiao. Sister Bei explained, "Be prepared. "
"I declare that I absolutely do not agree with such a bloody way of handling
Sister Bei didn't answer. He felt that there was no need to explain to people who didn't understand what a "combat plan" was, and he couldn't explain it clearly. In fact, his colleagues who made these plans also made a set of Earthly Branches contingency plans for use in case of failure to retreat. There are also four types of people: Zi, Chou, Yin, and Mao who take the plans seriously. He feels that There was no need to show it to him and make a fuss.
Lingao, Bopu Port.
The Whale is moored in the harbor. The darkened deck and hull after the coal was shipped have been washed clean with sea water by hard-working navy soldiers and shipyard employees.
Chang Shide's digging operation in Vietnam lasted for almost two weeks, and he finally selected a number of open-pit mining sites where coal could be mined. It was originally planned to load a cargo of coal back, but the structure of the whale was not suitable for loading unpackaged bulk cargo, so it only transported less than 100 tons of coal back to Lingao.
This discovery has given great excitement to the industrial sector, and of course it has also given the foreign affairs sector a big problem: how to occupy Hongji?
Just sailing over and setting up a few cannons can conquer a country, but it's still a bit weak for time travel. The sugar industry in Leizhou has not yet been completed, and it feels a bit difficult to open the mine again. Special discussions are ongoing within the executive committee on how to fully occupy the Hongji coal mine.
Chang Shide naturally did not participate in the discussion of the executive committee, nor did he return to Leizhou directly. He was still thinking about the rice he had hoarded in Vietnam. In this way, Gu Dachun got an advantage and caught Guang Bing, otherwise the Gu family pirates would probably cry about their bad luck.
Right now, the whale is preparing to carry out a special mission. To be precise, this is a fishing operation. The fish that were caught were the pirates of the Gu family. Large whales are bait, bait big enough to swallow a fisherman.
On the dock, there are piles of full straw bags ready for loading. Thanks to the efforts of the machinery department, Bopu's mechanized loading and unloading level has become higher and higher. Not only has the number of indigenous human booms been increased to four, but a large crane driven by a steam engine has also been installed. In order to adapt to Bopu's bulk cargo-based logistics needs, the machinery department is studying belt conveyors and grab machines. Once installed in place, the loading and unloading efficiency of salt, rice, iron ore and butterfly charcoal will be improved ten to dozens of times. A large number of loading and unloading labor at the terminals will be freed up.
What will be shipped to Xuwen is 200 shi of rice, which was allocated directly to South China from the inventory by the Planning Commission. Because of the reliable source of Vietnamese rice, Ma Qianzhu became much more comfortable in allocating grain. According to the navy's speculation, the pirates should have someone at a Xuwen port such as Hai'an Street who specially informed them. Therefore, the possibility of an accident when the ship enters Xuwen Port is relatively small, and you can safely transport food there.
The Admiralty has discussed how to eliminate pirates near Hai'an Street. Everyone agrees that proactively sending war fighters out to clean up the pirates will not have much effect unless they attack ships indiscriminately. Otherwise, the other party can disguise itself as a civilian ship to avoid search.
Take the power of the crossing navy. It's easy to deal with such low-class pirates. The only thing to consider is to minimize one's own losses and to eradicate the two key factors.
The best way is to go straight to the nest and eliminate it completely. However, Time Travelers lacks information sources in this regard.
Therefore, the most effective method that can be chosen is "fishing". In fact, Mou Tianxiong also proposed this suggestion. Fortunately, the opponent's intentions are very obvious, and it is quite easy to trap them.
Using a large whale as bait, this ship has a special shape. Pirates can tell it is a ship from South China at a glance, making it an easy target to identify.
Dude took over the task this time. All professional naval personnel went to sea to explore for resources. He is the only former naval officer left in Lingao. This heavy burden naturally falls on him.
The battle plan is to fish, but if you want to catch the fish cleanly, you must take the initiative.
The people who travel through time are in the light, and the enemy is in the dark. The navy is very unfamiliar with the sea conditions along the coast of Xuwen, and the enemy will most likely choose offshore waters to attack. The coastline in this area is lined with islands and reefs. Your opponent is much more familiar with the sea conditions than you are. You can use the favorable natural environment to hide yourself, observe the movements of the travelers, and choose the most suitable time to attack the Great Whale.
Initiative! He was deeply troubled by this problem. ! ~!
