Although Qin Zhiyuan expressed the idea of ​​not wanting to stay out of it, Foch still refused with silence.

Qin Zhiyuan is not worried, if Foch takes the initiative to pull Qin Zhiyuan into the vortex of politics, then it is worth Qin Zhiyuan's worry.

Foch's current approach is equivalent to a kind of protection for Qin Zhiyuan.

Anyway, he has already expressed his position, so Qin Zhiyuan will no longer worry about Louis Renault's plan.

Instead, he focused on the newly established tank workshop, which is the first systematic manufacturing workshop in Qin Zhiyuan's hands. Unexpectedly, it is so high-end and classy, ​​which caught Qin Zhiyuan off guard.

"We now have a total of 39,000 workers in the Renault factory, of which nearly 8,000 are responsible for technical work. This time, I have selected 4,800 people to organize production in three shifts to maximize the participation of more workers in the production line." Zhang Tianyun reported to Qin Zhiyuan in Qin Zhiyuan's office in the Black Swan Castle.

Zhang Tianyun and Zhou Hongguang are foremen in the Renault factory. They are responsible for the placement and transfer of all Chinese workers.

"Eight thousand people are a little less. I hope that these nearly 40,000 people are all skilled workers. In this way, even if only one in a thousand people learn faster, we can have 40 engineers, which is very important to us." Qin Zhiyuan attaches great importance to talents.

Forty people may seem small, but in fact, as engineers, the number is not small. According to the construction experience in another time and space, even if there is only one engineer, a factory can be supported. What the factory needs more is still skilled masters. Engineers are more often responsible for technical research and improvement.

"The thing that hinders our workers' progress is still language. Many workers still can't master French well. There are still obstacles in basic communication. They can only understand simple instructions, and they are powerless to do more complex ones. We are strengthening the workers' language ability through night schools, study classes, and tutoring groups. Once the workers pass the language barrier, the situation will probably be much better." Zhou Hongguang is more inclined to logistics and pays more attention to soft things.

"Look for Hu Wei De and see if we can find some language teachers to teach our workers." Qin Zhiyuan ordered, Gao Hongshi took notes, and he had to implement all these.

"We have looked for them. Mr. Hu introduced more than 30 people here, all of whom are international students from China, but compared with the huge base, it is really a drop in the bucket." Zhou Hongguang was also embarrassed.

The Chinese labor camp itself was equipped with translators, but the number was very small. There were only two or three in a camp of one or two thousand people, and there was only one in a camp of five or six hundred people like Qin Zhiyuan. Even if the students introduced by Hu Wei De were added, it was still not enough compared to the nearly 40,000 Chinese workers.

"We'll go find the two Mr. Huangs later to see if they have any subordinates. They've lived overseas for a long time, and there should be many people in their families who can speak foreign languages. If there are, let's borrow a few first." Qin Zhiyuan mobilized all the forces he could.

Although Borneo was a Dutch territory, Huang Bohan and Huang Jinsheng both had businesses, so they inevitably had to deal with different people. There must be people who could speak French, so it wouldn't be difficult to borrow a few to use.

"Recently, the Chinese workers' hearts are a little unstable. It's almost the New Year, and everyone is a little homesick. In addition, they are far away from their homeland. Some people haven't touched a woman for more than half a year, and their emotions are a little irritable. Two gambling cases were found a few days ago, and there was also a case of prostitution, which has not been dealt with yet." Zhang Tianyun hesitated.

"Gambling and prostitution must not be tolerated. All the relevant people involved will be sent back to their country, and no one can be left." Qin Zhiyuan killed decisively.

Gambling and prostitution are both representative behaviors of lack of self-control. One is the inability to control the greedy heart, and the other is the inability to control the lower body. Qin Zhiyuan will never tolerate such behavior, and he cannot let a rat shit spoil the whole pot of soup.

"Okay, I will arrange for someone to send them away tomorrow." Zhang Tianyun did not mean to beg for mercy.

There are all kinds of people in the world, and it is impossible to break the rules for one or two people who have no self-control. Zhang Tianyun understands this truth.

"Or, let's make a rule that less than ten shillings is not considered gambling, and small gambling is for pleasure." Zhou Hongguang believes that blocking is worse than dredging.

"A thousand-mile dam collapses because of an ant hole. Don't do evil because it is small, and don't fail to do good because it is small." Qin Zhiyuan insisted.

No matter what the rules are, as long as a small hole is opened, it will disappear. This is like quitting smoking. As long as you take a puff again, it means that you have failed to quit smoking.

"I received a telegram this afternoon. Yimin Company said that in the future, the workers they recruited will no longer be sent to us, but will be directly managed by Hu Wei De." Huang Fugui reported the bad news.

"I already know that it is not Hu Wei De who is in charge, but that Lieutenant General Qin. They are trying to set up a new camp." Qin Zhiyuan's face was gloomy.

After Qin Yunpeng's attempt to seize power failed, the Beiyang government came up with another plan. It directly ordered Yimin Company to terminate its cooperation with Qin Zhiyuan, trying to cut off Qin Zhiyuan's human support from the root.

The Beiyang government has its historical limitations after all. They don't know Qin Zhiyuan clearly enough, and they don't even know Qin Zhiyuan as well as Nivelle.

"What should we do?" Zhang Tianyun and Zhou Hongguang just received the news, and their faces changed drastically.

The reason why Qin Zhiyuan is valued by Old Renault and others is that, on the one hand, Qin Zhiyuan has the army in his hands, and on the other hand, Qin Zhiyuan represents the Beiyang government and has almost unlimited human resources. The Beiyang government is cutting off the source of the fire. Those politicians think that as long as Qin Zhiyuan's human support is cut off, they will naturally force Qin Zhiyuan to bow his head.

"It doesn't matter. I have contacted Huang Bohan and Huang Jinsheng. Their company will help us recruit people, and will increase the efforts. At most three months later, the number of people coming every month will not be less than 5,000." Qin Zhiyuan still has a backup.

The Chinese in Borneo are different from the Beiyang government. They are a group of abandoned pawns. Qin Zhiyuan has promised to protect the Chinese in Borneo, which is equivalent to the only hope of Borneo now. So no matter what Qin Zhiyuan asks, Huang Bohan and Huang Jinsheng will do their best to meet it.

When the Tongmenghui was making a revolution, they went to Borneo to raise funds. At that time, the Tongmenghui said that as long as the Republic of China was established, the safety of the Chinese in Borneo would be guaranteed. But in fact, the Tongmenghui did not do it. They did overthrow the Qing government, but let the Beiyang warlords pick peaches, which was equivalent to a chicken flying eggs. The plan of the Chinese in Borneo fell through again, and they were still abandoned pawns that no one cared about.

At this time of near despair, Huang Bohan and Huang Jinsheng found Qin Zhiyuan. Qin Zhiyuan is now the only support for the Chinese in Borneo. If Huang Bohan does not want to go to Singapore, and if Huang Jinsheng does not want to sell his property and return to the Republic of China, he can only choose to cooperate with Qin Zhiyuan and choose to support Qin Zhiyuan.

It is really a matter of fate.
