Open an aircraft carrier to fight against Japan

Lin Yuan thought to himself: "Maybe they think this matter is too unreliable. After all, ten taels of silver is not a small amount, so they don't believe it. Then I will mobilize them." Thinking of this, Lin Yuan walked from behind the table He walked out and said to everyone: "I am Lin Yuan. I believe everyone must have heard of me. I assure you that the promises I made can be fulfilled without any falsehood."

After Lin Yuan said this, he observed the expressions of the people. He didn't see the slightest move in the faces of the people, so Lin Yuan said, "If you don't understand anything, you can ask me."

After saying this, the craftsmen below still didn't move, not only that, but some of them turned around and left, Lin Yuan thought to himself: "Since it doesn't work for me to say this to a group of people, then I'll single out one person to do it. Tell him." Lin Yuan looked at a lean craftsman in his 40s at the front of the crowd, and thought, "I'll just ask that person."

Thinking of this, Lin Yuan stepped forward and said to the craftsman, "Master, our conditions are so good, would you like to come?"

What surprised Lin Yuan was: the craftsman shook his head, then turned around and squeezed out of the crowd without saying a word. At this moment, he heard the sound of a gong coming from a building behind, and everyone said, "Let's serve dinner!" It's time for dinner, so hurry up, you won't be able to make it if you get there late." So all the craftsmen dispersed one after another.

Lin Yuan returned to his seat full of doubts, and said to Wan Ling: "Mr. Wan, what's going on? Why is none of them willing to come?"

Wan Ling said: "I'm also wondering, I see that many of them have expressions of fear on their faces, could it be that someone threatened them?"

Lin Yuan frowned and said, "Old Man, what you said is really reasonable, with that Yuan Er's cunning, they can't let me take people away smoothly, so he must have blackmailed these craftsmen secretly. "

Wan Ling also nodded, and Lin Yuan said, "Well, let's go to their cafeteria and ask a few people secretly to see if Yuan Er is behind it?"

Lin Yuan asked his subordinates to take the things back first, and walked to the cafeteria together with Wan Ling. When they came to the cafeteria, they walked in. There was a long queue for the cooking place inside, and the craftsmen took the bowls by themselves, and then went to the cafeteria. Lin Yuan pointed to the rice and vegetables, and said, "Let's go and see what they eat."

After finishing speaking, Lin Yuan and Wan Ling walked over, and when they saw rice mixed with rice husks in the big rice pot, there was only one dish, cabbage and tofu, Lin Yuan said to Wan Ling: "It seems that their life is not good. What's the matter, if you don't follow us after all this, someone must be playing tricks!"

Lin Yuan said: "Let's talk to someone and ask what's going on." So Lin Yuan found an empty seat, and in front of him was a short and fat teacher. Lin Yuan smiled and said, "Hello, teacher. , how often can you eat meat here?"

The old master was very scared when he saw Lin Yuan, he hesitated and replied, "About a month."

Lin Yuan smiled and said, "Go to our place, there is meat to eat every day."

The master smiled and shook his head, then picked up his rice bowl and wanted to leave. Lin Yuan put his hand on his arm, pressed him lightly, and laughed softly: "Master, is someone threatening you? You are not allowed to follow let's go!"

The old master quickly said: "No, absolutely not!"

Lin Yuan whispered: "Master, you don't have to be afraid. If someone really threatens you and your family, you can tell me, and then you can go with me. I will send you and your family to the Northeast. I will give you an extra 50 taels of silver to ensure that no one can hurt you."

The old master smiled and said, "Shuai Lin, you misunderstood me. No one threatened me. Really, I won't go back with you." After saying this, the old master stood up and walked away without looking back. up.

Lin Yuan said to Wan Ling: "Mr. Wan, what do you think? I don't think he is lying to me."

Wan Ling said: "I think so too. He was very sincere when he spoke. I don't think someone is threatening them. What's going on?"

Lin Yuan shook his head helplessly, and said, "I don't know, I can't think of a reason."

Wan Ling said: "I don't know if you have noticed that they are always evasive when talking to you, as if they are deliberately hiding the truth of the matter. If they don't tell the truth of the matter, there is nothing we can do about it." Prescribe the right medicine, so the key to solving the problem is: We need to find someone who can tell the truth, but who can say it?"

After hearing Wan Ling's words, Lin Yuan suddenly said: "I remembered, I saved an old man last night, now we go to find that old man, I am also his savior, if he knows the truth of the matter, Will definitely tell us about it."

Wan Ling's eyes lit up, and he said, "Okay, let's go find this person."

Lin Yuan asked someone casually and found out that the old man on the night shift was called Yu Laowu, and his family lived in a small town next to the factory. So Lin Yuan and Wan Ling came to the town together, and lived in a small shop on the street. After buying some wine and snacks, he came to the old man's house and knocked on the door. The old man recognized Lin Yuan at a glance, and said in surprise, "Aren't you the thief last night? Why did you run out?"

Lin Yuan smiled and said: "It's all a misunderstanding, I'm not a thief, I saved your life yesterday, don't you remember?"

The old man thought for a while and said, "At that time, I felt something pressing on my chest in a daze, and then my brain gradually realized that it was you who saved me." The old man saw Lin Yuan's hand. With the wine and vegetables in his hand, he asked in surprise, "You saved me and bought me something?"

Lin Yuan smiled and said, "I came to you because I have one thing to ask you."

The old man nodded suspiciously, let Lin Yuan and Wan Ling into the room, and asked, "May I ask what your name is?"

Lin Yuan smiled and said, "My name is Lin Yuan, and his name is Wan Ling."

The old man kowtowed as soon as he heard it, but Lin Yuan stopped him and said with a smile: "Let's talk about serious business, let me ask you, do you know that I want to recruit workers in the factory?"

The old man nodded, and Lin Yuan asked, "Then did you say something to make people in the factory dare not leave with me?"

The old man frowned when he heard this, hesitantly said: "This..."

Lin Yuan showed displeasure, and said, "I heard that you, old man Yu, are a good person who repays your kindness with a spring of water. It's good now. Couldn't the kindness of saving your life be exchanged for a truth?"

Excited by Lin Yuan, the old man immediately said, "Okay then, I'll tell you what I said above." Then he lowered his voice and said to Lin Yuan: "Early this morning, the General Office and the Special Envoy Gather all the workers together, and tell them that Lin Yuan is coming to recruit workers, so everyone must not go.”

Lin Yuan asked, "What's the reason for not letting go?"

The old man said: "That's what they said, Lin Shuai, you don't understand shipbuilding technology at all, and the imperial court didn't let you build warships, so your recruitment is fake, and your hidden tricks are true. Please be careful, don't see You are tempted by the favorable conditions, and when the time comes, you will be deceived to go to the Northeast, and you will die without knowing how to die!"
