Chapter 982 Chapter 220

In the end, he decided to start with the basic construction first.Build a pier in the southwest direction.The revetment was leveled, and a trestle bridge was built, extending to the sea area with a water depth of more than 2.5 meters.Ensuring that large and medium-sized ships of the Navy and Big Wave Shipping Company can directly load and unload operations without barging.The pier itself is defended by a three-story bastion.Around the bastion, is a small fortified residential area.Lu Wenyuan resettled [-] households here, mainly fishermen from the island.

These people are his "navy", guarding the pier, patrolling Longkou Bay, and fishing to improve food.

As for Lu Wenyuan's own headquarters, it was located on the mountain of Qimu Island. On the top of the mountain, a watchtower was first built to monitor the entire island and nearby waters, and also serve as a lighthouse for guiding the fleet into the port in the future.

The water source on the island is poor, and the water source is all in the mountains.The site of the farm is located on a water source.

Not only directly control the water source, but also build pools and channels around it to concentrate the water source in the mountains into the pool for storage.Excess water is drained down the mountain through channels, where it can be temporarily used as agricultural water.

The scale of the farm itself is not large - the roundabout area of ​​Qimu Island is small, and the water source is scarce.In the long run, it is not a suitable base. On the plan, it is only a transit base built to cooperate with the Dengzhou operation.However, the fortified farm itself is very solidly built, and a large amount of relief rations, clothing, and sanitary products will be stored inside.

There are pools, large warehouses, headquarters and residential areas in the farm.There is also a standard barracks for a company.In addition to the protection of a masonry wall with parapet crenellations, there are six small double-layer salient fortresses.According to the plan, each salient fort will be equipped with a cannon.

The land outside the mountains was slightly leveled, and the land above the tide line was used to plant miliflower. When Kong Youde's incident happened, he used it to set up tents and mat sheds. A refugee camp could be established in no time.As a test, and in order to solve the housing problem of the laborers who built the base, he first built ten "longhouses" with simple wooden frames, reed mat ceilings and walls.Each room can accommodate 100 people.

In addition, there are a number of supporting buildings such as kitchens and toilets. After operation, it is believed that they can basically meet the needs.

However, this kind of mat shed has poor insulation performance and is not strong.Summer is barely okay, but in winter, if refugees are not provided with enough winter clothes and cold-proof equipment, it may be completely symbolic.

However, the need for more and better facilities involves the issue of transporting materials from Hong Kong.Lu Wenyuan knew that most of the transport capacity was now transporting materials to the newly opened Taiwan base, and it would be impossible to make a special trip to deliver materials to the small advance base on Qimu Island.

Almost all the building materials for the construction of the Qimu Island base were locally sourced, and the craftsmen were also hired from the local area.Thanks to the relationship with the Catholic Church in Shandong through the relationship of the Jesuits, and the care of Sun Yuanhua and other church members at all levels, Lu Wenyuan's work in the local area is not blind at all.He built the first phase of the Qimu Island base with almost no use of naturalized personnel.

Lu Wenyuan was deeply impressed by the poverty of the three eastern mansions and the cheap prices.Here is far from being compared with Jiangnan and Guangdong. There is reclaimed land everywhere, but the crops on most of the land are growing poorly.The villages around Chim Island are without exception very poor.Lu Wenyuan hired workers to work in the local area, and it was so low that laborers did not need money, but only asked for three meals.

Due to the extremely cheap labor force, Lu Wenyuan recruited a large number of laborers: no matter men, women, old or young, everyone was needed.Those who have strength do heavy work, and those who have no strength do light work.Utilizing a large amount of cheap labor, the first phase of the construction of the Qimu Island base was progressing rapidly. By the beginning of August, [-]% of the construction had been completed.

At the same time, the laborers reclaimed the fields, repaired canals and sumps, and built windmill towers—the windmills had to be transported from Lingao. Seeds of seaweed.

In order to protect the construction on the island and prevent idle people from mixing in, although Lu Wenyuan did not dig a trench on the long embankment, he built a wicker fence—it looks inconspicuous, but it will be very strong after it is rooted and filled with sand and gravel.The Loess Plateau uses this method to intercept mountain torrents to improve soil erosion, and can create a large number of fields in gullies.

From the looks of it, the construction on the island is thriving.Despite this, Lu Wenyuan still hopes that the reinforcements will come soon—especially when the northward detachment rushes to land on Jeju Island, so that at least some supplies can be transported to him along the way—not to mention, just this pile of three-eyed guns and Artillery is worrying.As for this group of poor and malnourished Xiangyong, he also felt very unreliable.

The only ones who can be relied on are a few naturalized people under his command, especially Huang Ande. Seeing him practice Xiangyong decently every day makes him feel at ease.

That Zhao Yingong was handed over to Wang Qisuo, and he has recovered now.Now he is the deputy captain of the Township Bravery Team. He can see that he has a lot of fists and kicks, and he can also shoot arrows with his bow.

According to overt and secret investigations and conversations, Lu Wenyuan has a general understanding of Wang Qisuo's basic identity: a local military household who sells private salt to make a living, and there is no one at home.This situation is very common among naturalized people, and it is not surprising.Lu Wenyuan didn't care either.

"Lao-Macao films, new films from La-Australia are released... Guan Yunchang warms wine and kills Hua Xiong, Spider-Man fights Spider-Man, *** bravely fights evil in Ya Nei, The Adventures of Five Heroes..."

Accompanied by the clear sound of gongs, there was the yelling of peddlers from the side of the street, and the children in the alley rushed to the street corner, taking out a handful of copper coins from their pockets and throwing them into the hands of the peddler, shouting: "Let me go first!" Look, let me see first."

This is an ordinary morning in Guangzhou City.Every day in Guangzhou, 176 such hawkers walk through the streets and set up more than 300 "Australian film cameras" in the market, bringing visual entertainment that should not belong to this time and space to children and adults in this time and space.

Skade, who was wearing a clear suit, was sitting in a carriage and witnessed this scene, with a smile on his lips.

"Lao-Macao films" are similar to the "Lao-Ocean films" of the last time and space in the late Qing Dynasty and the early Republic of China.In a wooden box, a mainspring is used to drive a ratchet mechanism to drive a film reel, and the pictures on the film are played continuously. The viewer has to pull the rope to tighten the mainspring. Everyone knows that this is an Australian product, so it is called an Australian film. .The light comes from the sunlight collected by the lens, and at night, the light is provided by the oil lamp, but the effect will be much worse.

This thing was requested by the Ministry of Colonial Trade and the Ministry of Culture and Propaganda, and was designed by the Machinery Factory.Compared with the traditional "foreign film box", the structure is improved, the weight and volume are reduced, and the effect is enhanced.

This entertainment has greatly increased the burden on Lin Hanlong's optical factory - the main component of "Australia View" is the lens, although the performance requirements are very low, they have to be ground out one by one anyway.For this reason, Lin Hanlong had to work with the veterans of the machinery factory to develop a device that can grind simple optical lenses in batches.

Of course, the Ministry of Colonization and Trade developed this set of things not to entertain the people of Ming Dynasty, nor to increase income-although the hawkers who obtained the "franchise" from Zichengji said that the income of this business is not bad, but the "franchise" of several hundred taels a year Fees" and the income from renting "Macao movies" can only be regarded as a drop in the bucket in the entire Lingao economic system.

The important point is for publicity, especially to spread the "Australian way of life".Build momentum for the upcoming commercial center.At the same time, the people of Ming Dynasty were attracted to immigrate to Hainan Island.

Guangzhou is the gathering place of wealth and population in the whole of Guangdong. As long as the concept of Lingao as "a bright light" and "a paradise" is established here, it will not only attract those poor people who are struggling to make a living and hope to pursue a new life, It can also attract some rich people.

Before the second campaign against encirclement and suppression campaigns, the Planning Institute had mentioned the problem of the small size of the economy in a national economic work expansion meeting of the Executive Committee.And the constraint of all this is the population.

Industry requires a large number of people—especially when the industrial system of the Senate is at a relatively low level, so it has to rely on crowd tactics to expand production capacity.Therefore, the collection of manpower has become a top priority.

He did not hesitate to invest almost all the strength of the Senate in the engine plan, and the ultimate goal was to obtain a large number of people.

Although the "La-Australian film" promotion has little effect on the overall labor internment program, it can still have a great impact in the long run.

"Come and watch, the latest Australian film - Australian workers moving into new housing, large iron factory melted iron, farms producing thousands of catties of rice per mu..."

The hawker changed another part of the film: this part is a film that blatantly promotes "new life".Because of the novelty of the content, it also attracted many people to watch.After all, Australians are already popular in Guangdong, and many people want to know more about them.

"Cough, cough, cough, cough..." Guo Yi, who was also sitting in the carriage, was still not used to cigars, so he put down the cigar in his hand.

"I said Guo Sir, cigars are not cigarettes, don't inhale them into your lungs. The smoke is too strong." Skaide slowly exhaled a puff of smoke, "You are now a representative of the Australian fans in Guangzhou, and you are the representative of the Australian fans in Guangzhou. Esquire, pay attention to details."

"Esquire, it's all your idea, but I was forced to smoke this thing-I didn't smoke or drink in the past."

"Fart, you don't smoke or drink when you work in a powerful department? How can the leader use you?" Skaide ignored Guo Yi's complaints, "You have to pose more elegantly, so that the old money will spend money. Money!"

This matter has always been a pain for Guo Yi - he worked hard back then, but he didn't get a deputy-level officer until D-Day.Of course, the reason is definitely not smoking and drinking.
