There is a small residential area in Nanhai Experimental Farm, which was built for the agricultural committee for naturalized workers. They are standard dormitories made by the construction company, similar to the old-fashioned tube buildings. [No pop-up novel website] Wu Nanhai and several elders working in the Agricultural Committee occupied a small piece of land on one side of the dormitory area and built the Agricultural Committee Elders' Dormitory.

The appearance style of the COA Apartment is similar to that of a residential building in the 1980s, but it is only double-storey. The structure is similar to a townhouse, with 8 households in each row, each with two floors and a small yard. Areas vary from 80 to 120 m².

Wu Nanhai applied for a large apartment, and finally moved into No. 404, Building 4, through a lottery. The entire "villa" has a layout of 4 bedrooms, 1 living room, 2 bathrooms and 1 kitchen. 120 square meters of usable area. The interior walls are simply whitewashed, the living room and bedroom floors are inlaid with bamboo floors, the bathroom and kitchen floors are covered with ceramic tiles, the bathroom supplies are blue and white porcelain sets chosen by Wu Nanhai according to his own preferences, and there is a multi-stove in the kitchen. All are decorated uniformly by the general office. Furniture and soft furnishings are configured by the veterans according to their personal preferences. In order to ensure the safety of the elders, these apartments have the same electricity supply as the apartments in Bairen New City. Equipped with electric lights and electrical sockets.

Wu Nanhai's home is decorated in a traditional style. A large south-facing room on the second floor is Wu Nanhai's master bedroom. A rosewood column bed lies in the deepest part of the room. Next to the bed are three layers of five stacked official boxes, a huanghuali shelf for hanging clothes, and a Chinese dressing table against the wall. There is a large glass mirror inlaid with Lingao production. There is a flat desk lying in the middle of the room. On the desk is a mechanical alarm clock bought on Taobao, plus two round stools, which is the complete configuration of the master bedroom. Wu Nanhai bought these furniture from the trophy warehouse under the Planning Academy. Most of them are trophies from previous battles. For example, this Babu bed is said to have been copied from a wealthy family in Sanliang City, Guangdong during the Battle of the Pearl River Estuary. The official boxes and frames were confiscated during the Qiongdao Public Security Battle. When allocating suites this time, the Planning Institute specially sorted out a batch of furniture from the warehouse and auctioned it to the elders.

Because there were rumors that the previous owners of these furniture were killed, not many people were actually willing to buy them. Coupled with the issue of usage habits, more people still want to use modern homes. But buying modern furniture requires booking at least six months in advance. And because the material production tasks of the engine plan are prioritized, the specific delivery date is far away. Wu Nanhai didn't care much about these things because he was religious, and he liked this "retro" style, so he bought it cheaply to decorate his apartment.

After washing up in the bathroom, Wu Nanhai came to the living room and sat on the chair, picked up the tea on the Eight Immortals table and took a sip. The publications ordered by the Propaganda Department for each elder have already been laid out on the table. On weekdays, there is only one copy of "Lingao Times". Today, because it is Monday, there are also weekly internal publications: "Weekly Updates" and "Weekly Updates" Venus". This is the most important "two publications and one newspaper" in Lingao's publicity slogan. Among them, the theoretical publication "Morning Star" is only confidential material for the elders and is not allowed to be circulated to outsiders. "Weekly News" is open to high-level naturalized citizens for reading.

Wu Nanhai opened the "Weekly Updates". In addition to publishing the current proposals and issues of the Senate; the work plan, projects and implementation progress of the Executive Committee, this publication also includes some of the Senate's ruling areas and the Ming Dynasty and various parts of East Asia. A compilation of important current affairs news.

He skipped the recent series of reports on Operation Overlord. The last chapter was published today - he was not very concerned about the war, and his eyes fell on the appendix. This is the latest list of seizures compiled by the Planning Institute:

"...During the entire Overlord operation, a total of 340,000 taels of grain were seized, 1,100,000 taels of silver and silver products of various qualities, 21,000 taels of gold and gold products, and 40 pieces of 50 pieces of various jewelry were seized. liters of standard transport box. Ten thousand bundles of silk, five thousand bundles of raw silk, three thousand bundles of old raw silk. Ten thousand bundles of spices, fifty-five thousand pieces of porcelain. Thirty thousand bundles of cotton, two thousand bundles of woolen cloth, excluding miscellaneous groceries. Their number, specific types and quantities are currently being counted.

Two hundred and eighty thousand kilograms of artillery, cannon, firearms, swords and guns were seized. Another 150,000 kilograms of various copper, iron, lead and other metal materials were seized. …”

This time the Planning Institute made a fortune. Wu Nanhai thought. If the newspaper hadn't said that the Zhongzuo Station Pier was burned down, there would probably have been more seized. Since the launch of Operation Engine, the financial and material tensions should be greatly alleviated. The purchase of large agricultural machinery that I have applied for for a long time has been approved.

But at least a large number of people were captured. These people captured from Fujian can be enriched in Kaohsiung. After all, Taiwan's current climate, water and soil are difficult for northern refugees to adapt to. It would be beneficial to increase the number of people from southern Fujian who can adapt to the environment to enrich the development group. Wu Nanhai knew that the Executive Committee had high hopes for agricultural development in Tainan, and was determined to develop the Tainan Plain as a large granary for the Senate - he had to make some achievements.

However, Tainan's population loss is too great. The northern population is not accustomed to Tainan's acclimatization. Although strict disease control measures have been implemented, the death and illness rates of immigrants in Kaohsiung's development are still very high. Now that there are tens of thousands of people in southern Fujian, it should be a great help to Tainan's agricultural development.

Although there are not many pages in the "two journals", they contain a large amount of information. Wu Nanhai only browsed them briefly during breakfast to get a grasp of the latest developments, and did not study them in detail until late at night. He picked up today's "Lingao Daily" again.

Nowadays, the layout of "Lingao Times" is becoming more and more professional. Each newspaper has 2 large pages, with a total of 16 pages. Lingao Times has canceled the internal and external editions. The page content focuses on editorials, policy presentations and science popularization. Today's front-page news is a long report about Operation Overlord, "Jinghai Pingbo," with the headline in the headline. Next to it is a special commentator's chapter "Establishing a new maritime order and promoting economic development" in bold letters.

Wu Nanhai didn't want to read more. He had already read the content of the report in "Weekly News". It goes into more details than this long report and is closer to the real situation. He turned to page B, and the first part was a commentary written by Yao Long Nuxia—that is, Du Wen—affirming the Jeju Island model. The entire article was actually affirmation and praise for the Jeju model. Compared with the usual Du Wen There are always endless criticisms, and this editorial is really rare.

There is an article below: "Character Article: Lieutenant Colonel Shi Zhiqi Full of Pride"

Lingao Times intern reporter Ge Sanpang reports

Today is the day to attack Zhongzuosuo City. The sea is sunny and windy, and the waves are high. Lieutenant Colonel Shi Zhiqi, the eternal helmsman of the First Marine Expeditionary Team, insists on landing with the sailors and personally commanding the operation. After hearing the news, the commanders of each company in the expedition team panicked and didn't know what to do, so they all tried to dissuade them, saying that the sea was extremely rough and landing by boat was risky. But Lieutenant Colonel Shi Zhiqi said heroically: "I like to ride on the landing craft of our navy the most. You said that the waves are rough and it is difficult to charge and land by boat. In fact, charging without fear of danger can reflect the bravery of our sailors. As the first expedition team As the chief officer, I should fight together with the sailors." He said that he should go deep into the vast sea soldiers and mingle with them, don't worry, go sailing. After hearing this, all the commanders looked at Chief Shi with tears in their eyes and reverenced them, secretly making up their minds to capture Zhongzuo City.

In this way, Lieutenant Colonel Shi Zhiqi boarded a landing craft and rode the wind and waves towards the rough sea...

"Look! Our sailors have made rapid progress. They have a completely new look..."

"Our Navy's readiness is foolproof."

Lieutenant Colonel Shi Zhiqi stood on the swaying and splashing deck, watching with satisfaction the scene of the first expedition team setting sail. He continued to stand on the deck, talking to reporters, and pointed out to the boat commanders the programmatic guidelines for further developing the naval force. At this time, a huge stormy wave hit us with such force that it seemed to swallow up the small boat. The commanders sincerely asked Lieutenant Colonel Shi Zhiqi to sit down quickly. However, he was still nailed to the deck like a javelin with his sword in hand. He said: "Don't worry about me, just keep sailing." Everyone on the boat stared at the lieutenant colonel's green pine-like back with admiration, and their eyes couldn't help but get wet again.

Lieutenant Colonel Shi Zhiqi said that to understand the life of the expedition team, one must go to the sea and see how they fight against the rough waves.

The swells grew higher and the wind became stronger. The waves rushed towards the ship, shaking the ship so hard that even the well-trained sailors found it difficult to support it. Lieutenant Colonel Shi Zhiqi's clothes were wetted by the splashing waves, but he remained unmoved. At this moment, he It is the Dinghai Shenzhen of the First Expedition.

Nearby, when the landing craft approached the beach, Lieutenant Colonel Shi Zhiqi gave the order for the first expedition team to disembark and land. At this time, reporters from the Fubo Military News jumped out of the boat first. They carried cameras, preparing to record the moving scene of Lieutenant Colonel Shi Zhiqi wading ashore. Lieutenant Colonel Shi Zhiqi held a pipe in his mouth and held his command knife at his waist with his head held high. The sea water was up to his knees... What an exciting scene! The photographers lost no time in taking pictures of this moving scene. There were only a few dozen steps from the landing craft to the shore, but Lieutenant Colonel Shi Zhiqi was filled with emotion: "Although I only took a few dozen steps to reach the land, these few dozen steps were the most profound steps in my life." .When I finished walking these dozens of steps and stood on the beach, I knew that the First Marine Expeditionary Team was invincible. We came to attack the enemies of the Senate, because on the corpses of the enemies there, the words "First Expeditionary Team" flashed. The badge of team glory!”

"The people at this propaganda outlet are all graduates of the Beibang Propaganda College!" Wu Nanhai put down the newspaper indifferently.
