Open an aircraft carrier to fight against Japan

Lin Yuan said hesitantly: "You want to go to the place where the British examine the ore? I'm afraid it will be very difficult. The place where they inspect the ore is located in the British Consulate. Is there any way for you to go in?"

Liu Jinqiu said: "We can find a way to transfer people from the British consulate. If you hold a banquet, can't you invite them to dinner?"

Lin Yuan said: "It's not necessary for everyone to attend the banquet, it's still impossible to call out all the people inside."

The two thought for a while, and Lin Yuan asked, "Old Liu, how is your acting skill?"

Liu Jinqiu said with a smile: "Do you want me to disguise myself and sneak into the consulate? No, I can't do it. I have to laugh. When I was in college, they never asked me for stage plays."

The two fell into deep thought again, and Lin Yuan thought to himself: "It's impossible for all the British in the consulate to come out, and it's not okay to let Mr. Liu disguise himself in. How can there be any good way?"

Lin Yuan said: "Tell me about your plan. If you enter the place where the ore is inspected, what do you plan to do?"

Liu Jinqiu said: "This is what I think. If the British want to test the content of aluminum, they should also use colorimetry. There must be no colorimetric analyzers in this era, so they can only use visual colorimetric analysis. The principle of colorimetric analysis is simply: prepare a series of solutions with known aluminum content, these solutions have different colors, and then compare the color of the solution with unknown content with them, and its color lies in which two concentrations Between, its content is between these two."

"If you want to mine ore, you need to test a lot of samples, because the scope of the mine is very large, you have to test ores from different places. It would be too troublesome to prepare a set of standard solutions every time you test the ores, and the preparation of standard solutions After it comes out, it cannot be left for too long, because the color will change over time, so, in order to save time, the color of the standard solution is generally recorded on a cardboard, which is called a standard color card."

"What I want to do is to find this standard color chart and replace it, so that they will mistakenly think that the aluminum content is high when they test."

Lin Yuan asked: "You changed the standard color, won't they see it?"

Liu Jinqiu said: "The difference in this color is not very big, and it is difficult to distinguish it with the naked eye."

Lin Yuan said: "Then you make it, and I'll send someone to replace it, wouldn't it be all right?"

Liu Jinqiu shook his head and said, "It's not that easy! Your people have no experience in using these things, so they probably won't recognize this color chart; the color charts used to measure different elements are different, and the ratios of many elements are different. The colors on the color chart are relatively close, and inexperienced people can’t distinguish them at all; I don’t know the size, shape and material of the color chart. It’s not easy to find out if the color is changed, but once these things are changed, you can see it at a glance gone."

After hearing this, Lin Yuan asked, "What you mean is that we can only do tricks if you go in and see this color chart yourself, right?"

Liu Jinqiu nodded solemnly and said, "That's right."

Lin Yuan thought for a while, and suddenly asked, "Old Liu, how is your heart?"

Liu Jinqiu didn't know why Lin Yuan asked this suddenly. He was taken aback for a moment, and then replied: "My heart is very good. During the last physical examination, the nurse said that I am a 60-year-old man with a 30-year-old heart... ..." Lin Yuan said: "Okay, I see, you are busy with the copper smelting first, and I will leave the matter of sneaking into the British consulate."

Lin Yuan thought to himself: "It is too early to determine how to get in. We must first determine where the British used to test the ore. There must be many Chinese in the British consulate, because there are few British people and many The work still needs to be done by the Chinese.”

Lin Yuan ordered someone to find a person who was cleaning in the British Consulate, and asked, "Is there any room in the British Consulate that has been vacant recently?"

The man replied: "There is a small building on the north side of the yard. There were still people there a few days ago, but it suddenly became empty recently." Lin Yuan quickly asked: "Think about it, when did it start to be empty?"

The man frowned and thought for a while, then said: "It was five days ago, I remember very clearly, that day they told me that this small building does not need to be cleaned."

Lin Yuan thought to himself: "Five days ago, wasn't that the day when the British expedition team set off for Shaling Mountain? It seems that this building is where they live, and the laboratory must be there."

Lin Yuan hurriedly took out the floor plan of the British Consulate, put it in front of the man, pointed to the north gate and said, "Look, this is the north gate of the Consulate. Which small building are you talking about?"

The man looked at the floor plan and said to himself: "Outside is the market, here is the north gate, and that small building is..." Then, the man pointed to a building with his hand, firmly Said: "That's right, it's this building!"

Lin Yuan smiled as he looked at the building, and thought: "It will be easy to handle from now on."

The next day, Lin Yuan approached Liu Jinqiu and said, "Mr. Liu, I've already figured out a solution. I can't tell you now. You have to go outside the consulate first."

Liu Jinqiu agreed with a smile, and was about to go out with Lin Yuan, but Lin Yuan said with a smile: "Don't go out in work clothes, go and change into that Sichuan brocade robe, we have to go to the street in style! "

Liu Jinqiu knew that Lin Yuan's arrangement must be reasonable, so he changed his clothes according to Lin Yuan's request, and the two rushed to the consulate all the way.

The two walked outside to the market, and suddenly, a big man rushed out from the corner of the street. He was holding a sharp bone-cutting knife in his hand, wearing clothes full of holes, and his messy long hair covered half of his face. The big man rushed out, grabbed Liu Jinqiu, and put the knife on his neck.

Seeing this scene, everyone in the market screamed in fright and hid aside, watching from a distance, the big man shouted at Lin Yuan: "Boy, pay 50 taels of silver, or your father's life will be gone!" .”

Liu Jinqiu didn't have the slightest fear, instead he smiled and said, "Young man, if you have any difficulties, tell us, we can help you, if you do this..."

Before Liu Jinqiu finished speaking, the big man interrupted him with a snarl, and said, "Old man, I only want to make money, not to kill, be honest, don't move or talk, I will never hurt you A hair!"

Lin Yuan quickly said: "Brother, don't be like this, just speak up if you have something to say..."

The big man roared angrily: "Young bastard, talk nonsense, look at me, I don't even have any clothes, how about you? It's silk and satin, I just want money, give me the money quickly."

Lin Yuan spread his hands helplessly, and said, "I left in a hurry, I didn't bring that much money!"

The big man looked at Lin Yuan for a while, and said, "You say you have no money, no one will believe it! If you have no money, take off your clothes and go to the pawn shop to change them!"

Lin Yuansheng was afraid that he would hurt Liu Jinqiu, so he hurriedly unbuttoned his coat and said, "I'll take it off, put down the knife, don't hurt him..."

At this moment, there was a commotion among the crowd on the street, a group of arresters rushed over, and the head arrester recognized Lin Yuan at a glance, stepped forward and said, "My lord, what should we do?"

As soon as the big man saw the arrester, he pulled Liu Jinqiu back, walked to the edge of the consulate, and kicked the door open.
