Gao Jianguo looked at Zhou Weifan's back, frowned and said, "There is something wrong with this person." ”

Li Ming shook his head and said, "Do you think he is a spy?" No, look at the bear-like one he was hungry for, what spy could be so dedicated as to risk starvation to death and break into our interior. And our appearance should be relatively accidental, and no force has this ability. ”

Gao Jianguo looked at Zhou Weifan's back again, and said gloomily: "That's not, I don't think he's definitely a businessman, do you know who I remembered when I saw him?" ”

Li Ming was stunned for a moment, thought for a while, and then shook his head.

"I think he's very much like Billy Chow, who comes in a submarine, and he's a person who doesn't look good anywhere, but I just don't think they're good birds."

After listening to Gao Jianguo's words, Li Ming also said cautiously: "You said that he and Zhou Billy are in the same profession and are also spies. It can't be a spy sent by Hou Jin, or someone sent by Mao Wenlong. ”

Gao Jianguo shook his head and said, "Houjin's impossibility, it should be Mao Wenlong's side." It doesn't matter, anyway, as soon as Mao Wenlong dies, Dongjiang Town will fall apart, just stare at him. ”

Li Ming thought for a while and said: "By the way, as soon as you say it, I remembered it, should we also use that Zhou Billy, this is a talent." It's not a matter of letting it go like this, please, or I'll talk to him and let him go to the intelligence department when I go back this time. This time, the composition of the Liao people is complicated, so he asked him to review this group of Liao people, and by the way, he will also investigate this Zhou Kefan. ”

They hurried for a few days, and finally made a roster of tens of thousands of Liao people. Liao Min's complexion has also recovered a lot after a few days of adjustment.

And the immigrant fleet finally came to Ocean Island again, this time Qiao Haipeng and Wang He also came with the fleet, and they got off the ship and got together with Gao Jianguo and Li Ming.

Wang He looked at the Liao people in the camp in the distance and said with a smile: "How is the situation of these immigrants recently?" ”

Gao Jianguo laughed and said: "They are just hungry, they can survive the winter, their bodies are all good and strong, they have eaten a few full meals, and they have recovered a lot, at least their feelings have been stabilized." How about the first batch of Liao people who returned with the ship? ”

Wang He shook his head and said with a wry smile: "There are still more than 100 people who didn't survive on the road, and more than a dozen died one after another when they arrived in Vladivostok." The situation of others is okay, although the composition of the Liaomin this time is complicated, but the quality is much better than the previous batch of Liaomin.

In addition, there are many women and craftsmen, and we also went to Jeju Island, where the situation is similar to here, and it is estimated that more than 10,000 Liao people can directly become apprentices this time, which is gratifying. And there are more than 30,000 single women in Liaomin, haha...... This time, we solved a big problem for our company at once. ”

After chatting for a while, everyone felt that it was no further ado, and immediately arranged for Liaomin to board the ship. Because many of the shipowners and boatmen in Dongjiang Town stayed on Ocean Island, and their boats were thrown into the bay, there were nearly 100 of them.

Several 10,000-ton giant ships could not enter the bay, and now they are all parked in the waters near Ocean Island, so these wooden ships, plus more than a dozen North Korean wooden warships captured by Zhou Cheng, have become transit ships that transport Liao people to the 10,000-ton giant ships.

Zhou Weifan also squeezed onto a Korean warship with many Liao people, and he was born in Jinyiwei, and he recognized the origin of the ship when he got on the boat, and he also found some dried blood stains where he was standing.

It shows that this North Korean warship was captured by these overseas people not long ago. What kind of strength did these overseas people come from, they actually collected more than 100,000 hungry people in Dongjiang Town. Even the current emperor can't take out so much silver.

The North Korean warship slowly sailed out of the bay of Ocean Island, and when the Liao people on board saw the 10,000-ton giant ship, they were all frightened by the scene in front of them, and several timid people were so shocked that they couldn't stand still.

Although Zhou Weifan was born in Jinyiwei and could be regarded as having some knowledge, at this moment, he was no different from those Liao people, and he was shocked by the four incomparably huge iron ships moored outside Ocean Island.

The treasure ship that the Three Treasures went to the Western Ocean was a small sampan compared to these giant ships. In the moment when they were stunned, the Korean warship had already come to the side of the huge iron ship.

Zhou Weifan raised his head and looked at the iron ship, the tall hull was three or four zhang, he followed an escalator that was put down diagonally, and carefully went up to the hull, he saw that the ship was almost fifty zhang long and seven zhang wide.

And he also deliberately knocked on the hull to verify his idea, it is indeed an iron hull, how many weapons and firearms can be made from these irons alone, even if it is a cannon, it can make thousands of people.

He looked closely at the hull and found no sails, so how did the ship walk on the sea. Countless thoughts flashed through Zhou Bifan's heart, which surprised him incomparably. Could this be an immortal artifact made by immortals?

Before boarding the ship, many Liao people knelt down for a long time, and their heads were bleeding before they dared to get on the boat. Even if he got on the boat, he looked cautious, as if he was afraid of angering the immortals.

Zhou Bifan walked down a wooden slope that led directly to the bottom with the Liao people, and was pushed into the cabin by several generals in colorful costumes, and he and a group of Liao people.

Surrounded by pine bark on all sides, the cabin smells of pine oil and smells refreshing.

Zhou Bifan found a place to sit down, still immersed in the shock just now, could it be that these people are all servants of the immortal family, but he immediately shook his head, absolutely not, although this ship is huge, but the iron and pine on the ship are all mundane things, without a trace of immortal temperament.

Thinking of this, he simply didn't think about it, and he didn't know where to drag them to, and he would naturally see each other when he got there. He leaned against the pine behind him, sat for a while, and then slowly fell asleep.

Li Ming looked at the empty immigration camp behind him, and he was relieved. Unexpectedly, this time it actually pulled away tens of thousands of Liao people here. Thinking of this month's suffering, he shook his head with a wry smile, and then also walked into the No. 1 landing ship.

As the whistles of the ships sounded, the entire fleet began to set sail and sailed away from the base of Ocean Island one after another. The migrant fleet stopped at Jeju Island on its way home.

The conditions on Jeju Island are much better than those on Ocean Island, and there are many more Liao people than on Ocean Island. The fleet unloaded a group of Liao people here, all of whom were screened by Gao Jianguo and Li Ming in the past few days, and there were thousands of them. Some of them are because of the complex composition, and some of them are selected by everyone based on their experience, and they will form the Jeju Island Reclamation Group together with the Liao people screened by Jeju Island and stay in Jeju Island Tuntian.

Wang Yaowu and Fujita were also tossed enough during this time, and it was not until Guo Song came here with the company's support staff and food that they relaxed.

Seeing Gao Jianguo and Wang He coming, Wang Yaowu hurriedly came out to greet them and reported the situation on Jeju Island to everyone. The situation here is similar to that of Ocean Island, where you have to face crazy hunger every day, and there have been a few big messes, but in the end they are all controlled.

Wang Yaowu also reported one thing, after the Korean sailors were annihilated by Zhou Cheng, they sent a small boat over, specially discussed Wang Yaowu's side, and asked Wang Yaowu for negotiations.

Gao Jianguo thought for a while and said, "I guess they don't dare to fight, so let's talk about it." Now we don't need to be too bad with them, so that they don't have to go around us like flies. Guo Song, you are responsible for negotiating with them, there are only two principles.

The first principle, repeatedly emphasizing to them, is that we are not going to occupy this place, but to stay here temporarily, to lease Jeju Island to the North Korean authorities, and as for the deadline, let's set it at 99 years, and give them a symbolic amount of silver every year.

The second principle is that the DPRK must sell grain to us every year, and we buy it at the market price, but the amount of grain sold each year must be set a little higher. You sue them, if they can't reach this amount, then we will rob them ourselves. ”

Wang He also smiled and said: "Well, this method is good, if we can get the food supply of North Korea through negotiations, it will also alleviate the current food shortage problem of our company." ”

Li Ming thought for a moment and said, "We can sign an official document with them to lease Jeju Island, and also let them have a step down." As a sign of our sincerity, we can return the four turtle boats to them. ”

Zhou Cheng next to him said with a smile: "Yes, give them those turtle shells, it's useless, let's take it back, we can't change it into a cargo ship or a fishing boat." But don't give them back the other dozen ships. ”

Song Tao laughed and said, "It's good to give them back four turtle shells, as for the rest of the boats, haha...... Drifting ......"

The fleet unloaded the screened Liaomin and left Jeju Island and returned to Vladivostok after a few days of sailing. Except for the boats that transported women and craftsmen who sailed directly into the Golden Horn, the rest of the ships sailed to the landing site in Trudovoye in the north.

The company is well prepared there, and several large, well-equipped migrant camps have been built. Two garrison battalions will be responsible for the security of Trudovoye. Fifty battalions of musket militia will be stationed in the migrant battalion as the backbone of the camp to manage these newcomers.

In order to cope with the rapid increase in population and avoid instability, a new round of military expansion plans has been submitted to the board of directors and has been approved by a majority.

The company has started a new round of recruitment, with 1,200 new garrison battalions added to the War Department, 1,200 new personnel to the Admiralty, 100 new personnel to the Air Force, 300 new artillery personnel, and 300 new personnel to the teams directly under the Military Commission (automobile, communications, medical, logistics maintenance and other technical arms).

These recruits will be stationed in the training team in the near future. The garrison brigade has begun to settle in the new camp, and a new round of intense training will also be launched at the same time. R1152
