Chapter 30: Return to Vladivostok

Li Ming thought about it for a long time and felt that it was definitely not a matter if it always went on like this, so he reformulated the welfare standards for these temporary workers, and temporary workers who did heavy and rough work could be exchanged for a transaction every day. Temporary workers who work in logistics work for two days in exchange for a trading item. Do some casual work and get five days in exchange for a trade. All temporary workers are in charge of two meals, and this condition remains the same.

Li Ming is not reluctant to do that, mainly considering the complexity of human nature, people do not suffer from poverty and inequality. It's not a problem now, but after a long time, it's strange that there is no problem. Many people in the company did not understand the standard set by Li Ming, but Li Ming still pushed this standard out of his own hand.

Unexpectedly, when these locals learned the news, they all cheered loudly, whether it was the young and strong people who did heavy and rough work, or those old and weak, they were very satisfied, and they all felt that this standard was fair and reasonable.

After solving this problem, the company began to help them with physical examinations, baths, and distribution of clothes, and when they were done, half a day had passed, but with the addition of so many temporary workers, the company's shortage of manpower was temporarily solved.

As the work unfolds, the company needs more people to join the construction, although there are already people from other villages who have come to apply for temporary workers, but it is certainly not enough to rely on the local people, the land here is sparsely populated, and there are only a few villages within a radius of 100 miles.

It seems that he has to think of other ways, Li Ming has an idea, after the company's two ships are launched, he will go to nearby Japan first, catch some devils in Japan at that time, and let them temporarily serve as the company's initial laborers. Li Ming waited for the work here to be on the right track, so he returned to the modern society to discuss with everyone.

In the following days, the work of the advance team was very smooth, and the entire land on the north shore of the Golden Horn, except for the mountains and hills in the north, had been completely leveled, and the next step was to start further work according to the planning plan.

Li Ming explained his work, and opened the wormhole and returned to Vladivostok in modern society, and he came back with several military tankers and ten KAMAZ dump trucks, these construction machinery and various diesel generators are big drinkers of oil, and they need a lot of diesel every day, so this time they also came back with Li Ming to replenish diesel, and several trucks also came back to prepare to pull some food supplies, because there were hundreds of more foodies in the base, and the original preparation of materials was also a little insufficient.

Li Ming still chose the time in the early hours of the morning, which was also the time that the company had researched, because at this time, there would be no outsiders present in the two time and space, and it was very safe to open the wormhole at this time.

But as soon as he walked out of the wormhole, he found that the entire warehouse was brightly lit, and countless company employees were busy in the warehouse. When everyone saw Li Ming, they all stopped what they were doing and came over to greet Li Ming and them.

Gao Jianguo and Qiao Haipeng were not there, Guo Song and Hu Hai were in charge of the work here, they happily held Li Ming's hand and asked him about the situation of the advance team, Li Ming returned to the company with them, and told them about the work of the advance team along the way.

The two of them were also very excited to learn that the work of the advance team was smooth, they have been receiving supplies from all over the world in the past few days, and now they accept the most orders from China and Japan every day, and orders from other regions are also on the way, and all of them will arrive in Hong Kong within four months.

Gao Jianguo and Qiao Haipeng are now staring at the big Kamen, the two ships are in the final stage of drying and installing and debugging weapons, and the two of them are not at ease, so they both go there, and they have been on the ship every day for several days.

Ten brand-new 500-ton Japanese fishing boats and two 700-ton second-hand whaling ships have also sailed to Grand Kamen, and are installing weapons, and it is estimated that in ten days, they will be able to enter another time and space with the two landing ships through the Guò wormhole.

Before entering the wormhole, these ships also have to be loaded with supplies, especially the ammunition of various artillery guns on the ship, as well as various supplies. Anyway, now the Far East Company is trying to take advantage of the opportunities that can be used as much as possible to transport the materials of modern society to another time and space.

Li Ming arranged the supplementary tasks of several military tankers and several trucks and the supplies that needed to be used to pass the wormhole next time, and then rushed to the big Kamen, where he met Gao Jianguo and Qiao Haipeng on the two landing ships.

Together with the company's naval personnel and the personnel of the dockyard branch, they were busy on the two ships day and night, and each one was covered in oil. The two Crocodile-class landing ships have been launched, artillery and other weapons have been installed, and final preparations are underway.

Project 1171 Alligator-class landing ship:

Full load displacement: 4700 tonsStandard displacement: 3400 tonsLength: 113 metersWidth: 15.5 metersDraft: 4.5 metersSpeed: 18 knotsEndurance: 10,000 nautical miles / 15 knotsStaffing: 100 people: 100 people.

Military transport capacity: 300 soldiers, 1700t including about 20 tanks and various vehicles, 40 armored combat vehicles. Powerplant: 2 diesel engines, 6.6MW (9000 hp), twin shafts.

Missiles: 2 or 3 twin SA-N-5 "Cuppan" ship-to-air missile launchers, manual aiming, infrared homing, range 6km, flight speed 1.5Ma, flight altitude 2.5km, warhead weight 1.5kg, a total of 16 missiles.

2 twin 25mm/80 (Type 4 ship) guns, elevation angle 85°, rate of fire 270 rounds / min, range 3km, ammunition weight 0.34kg. 1 seat 122mm BM-21. 2 20-barreled rocket launchers (Type 3 and Type 4 ships) with a range of 9km.

Fire control system: 1 "Box" optical commander (Type 3 and Type 4 ships). Radar: 2 "Don" 2 sea search radars, I-band.

Now this Alligator-class landing ship retains only one "Don" 2 pair of sea search radars. A communications system, the rest of the armament and radar electronic systems were all removed, two brand new diesel engines were replaced, a crane was retained on the front deck, and many areas of the ship that needed to be repaired were renovated.

Armament placement scheme: one DZSU-23 Haomie double-barreled anti-aircraft gun is installed in the front and rear, four D-30122 mm howitzers are staggered on the front deck, which can fire at one side at the same time if necessary, and four HCBC 12.7 mm heavy machine guns are installed at the four corners of the rear bridge.

This kind of armament is already outrageously powerful in another time and space, and it can be said that it is armed to the teeth, Li Ming and Gao Jianguo stood in the bridge of a landing ship, and their hearts were also surging.

Piloting such a huge ship, in another time and space, you can absolutely sweep all the oceans in the world, the sail battleship of that era is scum, of course, you have to have enough diesel to do it, even if it is converted to steam engine power in the future, it still can't meet its ambition of cruising the world.

"Old Joe, the progress is much faster than expected, I thought it would take half a month, but now it seems that I can drive away in a few days."

Qiao Haipeng glanced at Li Ming with a smile, his eyes were full of excitement: "We are rushing to the schedule like crazy every day, so we can speed it up, those Mao Zi are really too lazy, if it weren't for a lot of dollars to stuff them, they wouldn't have thought about completing it for another month." ”

Gao Jianguo also smiled and said: "I'll take you to see the ten fishing boats in a while, all of them are 500-ton steel-hulled trawlers newly launched by the small Japanese shipyard, the electronic equipment on board, except for a weather radar and a set of communication devices, the rest are not installed, and the diesel engine is also the old model, although it is a little behind, but fortunately, the performance is stable, and the maintenance is also very simple, and each boat has also purchased a spare engine and a large number of accessories." Cruising at speeds of up to 10 knots, we also modified the foredeck, where a D-4485 mm cannon was installed, and two 12.7 mm anti-aircraft machine guns were mounted on either side of the foredeck. ”

Qiao Jianguo grabbed the conversation and introduced the situation of the two whaling ships to Li Ming.

"The two 700-ton whaling ships, although they are second-hand, are in good condition, we have also replaced the old engines, the cruising speed can run to 12 knots, the sonar and other high-end electronic equipment have been removed, the hull has been reinforced, and two double-barreled 23mm anti-aircraft guns and four PK7.62mm general-purpose machine guns have been installed on both sides of the foredeck.

Why choose small Japan's things, is because of fuel economy, and then there is the long life of small Japan's diesel engines, domestic fishing boats are really not good, if our base in the southern coast can still be dealt with, but Vladivostok here is frequently close to the Sea of Japan, and the distance from the mainland is too far, after repeated research and demonstration, we still think that small Japan's ships are reliable. It's expensive, it's so expensive, you can buy two semi-domestic fishing boats at this price. We also asked the manufacturer to help us increase the fuel tank and increase their stroke. ”

Li Ming nodded and said: "Don't talk about patriotism at this time, when we drive a small Japanese ship, go to Japan in another time and space to rob his mother, wouldn't it be cooler." ”

His words made everyone laugh, Li Ming suddenly remembered something, and said to Gao Jianguo and Qiao Haipeng: "By the way, this time our advance team is very smooth in all aspects, but there is a great shortage of labor, I will count your ships to go to Japan and North Korea on the opposite side to go around, grab some labor, we need at least a few thousand laborers, and there are too few natives near Vladivostok." ”

Gao Jianguo patted his thigh on the side and said: "Okay, I support this, the little devil has plagued us for so many years, and now it's time for us to find some interest and come back." ”
