The dozen or so big men were all Yuan Er's cronies, and they were all punks who followed Yuan Er, but now that Yuan Er gained power, he suddenly became a respected figure, so he only followed Yuan Er's lead, and immediately heard Yuan Er's words Surround Lin Yuan at the core.

What Yuan Er didn't expect was that Lin Yuan, who was surrounded by the core, didn't show the slightest sign of panic, but instead laughed. Yuan Er said angrily, "Lin Yuan, what are you laughing at?"

Only then did Lin Yuan put away his smile, and said to Yuan Er: "Do your subordinates know who I am?"

Yuan Er said angrily: "Why don't you know? Aren't you Lin Yuan?"

Lin Yuan smiled and said, "Since they know that I am Lin Yuan, they must know that I am the governor of the three northeastern provinces. I don't think they don't know what crime it is to kill a feudal official of the imperial court?"

When Yuan Er heard this, he smiled grimly: "Lin Yuan, don't think that you are the governor of the three provinces in Northeast China. There are five people and six people. Let me tell you, you are not even a fart in the eyes of Mr. Yuan. What do you say?" Say, can my men and I be afraid of you?"

Lin Yuan smiled and said: "You are not afraid of me. Are you not even afraid of the laws of the Qing Dynasty? If your Master Yuan is really not afraid of the laws of the Qing Dynasty, it is a conspiracy to rebel. You can ask your master, Does he have the guts!"

Yuan Er laughed wildly when he heard Lin Yuan's words, and said after laughing, "Lin Yuan, do you think anyone will believe that you came to the shipyard in the middle of the night?"

Lin Yuan said: "As the governor of the three northeastern provinces, I have no reason to come to the shipyard in the middle of the night, so no one should believe it."

Yuan Er said: "Since no one believes it, it's over, I'll kill you secretly, and no one will know it!" At this point, Yuan Er's eyes were solemn, and he said in a gloomy voice: "Brothers, do it! !"

The big guys charged up and wanted to arrest Lin Yuan. Lin Yuan stretched out his hand and pulled out the pistol from his waist. Yuan Er sneered and said, "Lin Yuan, do you want to scare people with a pistol again? Let me tell you, my group Brothers have lives in their hands, none of them are afraid of death, how can you deal with so many people with one gun?"

After Yuan Er finished speaking, he suddenly saw Lin Yuan smile at him, and then suddenly jumped towards him, rushing out from between the two big men.The two big men fought back and tried to catch Lin Yuan, but Lin Yuan's jump was too fast, the big man rushed to Yuan Er before even touching Lin Yuan's clothes.

Yuan Er saw Lin Yuan rushing in front of him, and then felt something cool on his forehead, and then heard Lin Yuan's voice: "Yuan Er, don't move, if my gun goes off, The bullet went right into your head."

Yuan Er wondered in his heart: "Why is this Lin Yuan so fast? Why are my subordinates so useless!" At this moment, Lin Yuan said leisurely: "Yuan Er, we don't have any deep hatred, as for you to die? Let you Let your subordinates go out first, let's talk alone."

Yuan Er didn't want to die, and judging by today's posture, Lin Yuan could get out of his body even if he killed himself, so his death would be too unworthy, so Yuan Er said to everyone: "You go out first, Shuai Lin and I Chat alone."

Everyone went out after hearing what Yuan Er said, and only Yuan Er, Lin Yuan, and Du Yeer were left in the room. Lin Yuan pulled a stool and sat down, and said with a smile: "Yuan Er, Du Yeer, you are panicking!" What? Although I have discovered the tricks of your shipbuilding, as long as you agree to my conditions, I will not tell what I saw."

Yuan Er frowned and said, "Is what you said true?"

Lin Yuan nodded with a smile, Yuan Er said: "Don't lie to me, you have a grudge against Master Yuan, how could you let go of such a good opportunity for revenge."

Lin Yuan smiled disdainfully after hearing this, and said: "First of all, I want to tell you that Master Yuan and I have no enmity. The quarrel between the two of us is caused by him. Secondly, my enemy is a foreign devil. If you are not interested in internal fighting, you will not attack your master for his faults, do you understand?"

Yuan Er nodded and asked, "Then tell me, what conditions do you want us to promise you?"

Lin Yuan said: "Allow me to take away the Chinese skilled workers in the factory."

Yuan Er frowned and asked, "Is it that simple?"

Lin Yuan replied firmly: "Yes, it's that simple."

Yuan Er said heartily: "Okay, I agree!"

Lin Yuan took away the pistol pointed at Yuan Er, and said with a smile: "If you do this earlier, you will be fine? Well, I'm going back. You should go to bed early tonight."

After Lin Yuan finished speaking, he stood up and walked out, Yuan Er suddenly said, "Wait."

Hearing this, Lin Yuan thought to himself: "What kind of trick is this Yuan Er going to play again? Let me threaten him with my actions." So Lin Yuan turned around, raised his pistol, and asked while looking at the muzzle of the gun. "What's the matter with you?" That's clearly saying: "If you dare to play tricks, I'll shoot you!"

Yuan Er knew that Lin Yuan was threatening himself by playing with the pistol, so he chuckled and said, "Lord Lin doesn't know something, I won't stop you from taking the skilled workers away, but if the skilled workers don't want to go with you, neither will we." There is no way, so you have to do the job of recruiting workers yourself.”

Lin Yuan thought to himself: "The wages I give are definitely higher than yours, and the conditions in my territory are better than yours. How can you compete with me?" Lin Yuan laughed and said, "What you said is reasonable, I promise it will be."

Yuan Er smiled and said, "Very well, Mr. Lin, please go slowly."

Lin Yuan came out from inside and got back on the off-road vehicle. The driver hurriedly asked, "Shuai Lin, what happened? Why did you stay inside for so long?"

Lin Yuan smiled and said: "It's nothing, just saved a life, and fell asleep, but I didn't sleep well that night, and was woken up severely, let's go back now, they have agreed for us to recruit workers .” The driver also smiled, without asking any more questions, and drove back to the nearby post house.

Early the next morning, Lin Yuan said to Wan Ling and the others: "I've made all the arrangements. We can go in and recruit workers today. Let's take out all the banners we prepared."

Wan Ling also said: "That's right, let's go as soon as possible. I investigated yesterday. Their skilled workers and senior workers are only five taels of silver a month. We give them ten taels, which is double theirs. In this way, they come There must be a lot of people here, we are mainly recruiting skilled workers this time, so we need to set the threshold higher, and get there early so that we can review as soon as possible."

So Lin Yuan came to the shipyard with people, tables, and banners. As soon as he entered the door, he saw the guard from yesterday. The swelling on his face hadn't gone away. When he saw Lin Yuan, he greeted Lin Yuan warmly and followed him around. , soon Lin Yuan arranged everything, and the craftsmen saw Lin Yuan and their banners gathered around. Anyway, the warship they built was only painted, so they were very leisurely.

Lin Yuan said to everyone: "Go to my shipyard, and you will be given ten taels of silver every month. After you go, you will also be given a settling allowance of 20 taels. Come and sign up, everyone."

What surprised Lin Yuan was that none of the people below came forward, and no one even came up to ask a question, Lin Yuan thought to himself: "This is strange, our conditions are so good, why don't they come? "
