Volume 1 The End of the World Chapter 046 It’s Better to Fight Early Than Late

Su Ming's dormitory is located in the upper half of the small entrance inside the character Hui. Like the lower half of the headquarters, it is in the middle of an H-shape, facing the camp gate. There are three H-shaped buildings with six rooms on the second floor, and three officers are stationed there.

Together with Zhang Xiaobo, Zhu Xuefeng, Tian Jinlai and Alberto, they prepared a base and prepared sufficient materials for prefabricated houses. The construction workers were just having fun, building thousands of square meters of prefabricated houses, complete with water, electricity, and bathrooms, in one day.

Halfway there, Wu Kezhou trotted closer.

"Brother Su, are you free?"

"Why don't you go to the shooting range and want to be put into confinement?"

"Stop talking, I'd rather go to the shooting range if Xiao Yue catches me."

"Say inside the house."

Su Ming did not change his route to the headquarters, which was often "occupied" by Moman. He went straight back to the dormitory. He wanted to be alone and quiet, so it was best to find someone to complain to and complain about. If he had someone, Wu Kezhou used to be his line

The person is now his subordinate, but has never been his friend. Sitting in the room, unable to speak, Wu Kezhou handed over three pieces of application report.

"This is... an electric arc furnace, an electroslag furnace, a heat treatment furnace, a forging hammer, a drilling machine, a milling machine... Do we have these things?"

"You can find out if you open the container, or ask Uncle Ye to check the cargo manifests of each ship? Hehe..."

"With so much machinery and a lot of motors, what does Xiao Yue want to do, dismantle the ship?"

"Spindle motor, servo motor, positioning motor, three motors are indispensable for a machine tool. The milling machine also has a water pump motor. To put it bluntly, there are not enough machine tools. Xiao Yue has a whim and wants to build his own machine tools."

"Build it yourself? Ha, so brave!"

"How courageous? Do we want to settle down on this shabby island?"

The day before yesterday, Xiao Yue accepted an amazing job: to make a cannon. The sailors were all shunned for fear of not being able to do it, and they risked their lives by dragging their buddies on their backs. Others were fine. The veteran "comrades" headed by Qi Guoqiang all despised it, and Li Dongmin had a big mouth.

It is said that the husky wants to eat the moon. No one blames Ye Te for his imagination. If you push hard, the boss can still dominate the bow?

In this way, not only did Xiao Yue fail to find a helper, but his cousin also abandoned him. This guy was really stubborn. He neither went to the boss to cry for mercy, nor asked the boss and his second uncle, who had a personal relationship, for help.

Go to the headquarters. So, with this application report, we not only need people, but also machinery, materials, and factories and workshops.

"Do you think we can leave in a short time?" Su Ming roughly read the report.

"This...sigh!" Wu Kezhou sighed and sat down. "The newcomers have learned about monsoons, ocean currents, longitude and latitude for more than ten days, and only one-third of them have understood it and laughed. Alas, teaching these newcomers is like teaching illiterate people how to read. The following is

Learning to read radar, sextant, magnetic compass, gyro compass...it takes only one or two months. Half a year, right? How can I start sailing on a boat within half a year?"

"You can't build a cannon in half a year?" Su Ming asked again.

"This..." Wu Kezhou was stunned by the question and lit a cigarette before answering, "If the machinery is complete...skilled technicians are also available, plus materials...well, there should be no shortage of materials. The most difficult gun barrel, seamless steel tube container

It doesn’t matter if they don’t exist, the worst thing is that they can be dismantled from the ship. With so many ships, a few suitable seamless steel pipes can always be dismantled. It depends on how determined the commander is. If he is determined enough, he might be able to build a beggar’s version of the pipe withdrawal in half a year.”

Not everyone can do everything. Wu Kezhou is a seaman with a professional background. He graduated from a university with a major in maritime engineering. He is not only familiar with shipboard machinery, but also knows the general manufacturing process. In fact, his biggest specialty is detecting waterways, which was once the eastern

The pilot of a large port. He said he was second in the fleet's exploration of the channel, but no one dared to say he was first.

"Do you doubt the commander's determination?" Su Ming became more and more cunning as he asked.

Wu Kezhou smiled ugly, smoked and didn't answer. It's okay to scold Xiao Yue, but forget about the boss! He had just been scolded at the morning meeting, and he was still frightened.

"Xiao Yue found the wrong person!"

Su Ming took out a cigarette from the cigarette case and lit it. He rarely smoked, and he was so worried right now that he really needed one. "You old guys, your ability to help is limited. The veterans among the newcomers can't do it without him."

We need helpers. Two of them are demolitionists. Whether it is smoke or smoke-free, there must be professionals who are involved in explosives. In addition, skilled technicians are also among the newcomers. Don’t be fooled by the name of construction workers.

It is the lowest-end skill for newcomers. They have rich professional experience, and construction workers are just the status quo. On average, each person has three work skills, which is not surprising to me. When collecting the files, I had the impression that they are fitters, lathes, forgers, and mold workers.

, some people said that they have done it before... No matter whether they are intermediate, senior or junior technicians, they are also valuable. I will check the files and make a list."

"That's right!" Wu Kezhou shouted, slapping his thigh, his eyes shining, "Some of these guys might not be construction workers. I heard they got paid a lot of money abroad and got in. Anyway, it's not that difficult to pretend to be construction workers. I'm Cao, like this

If so, there is a 70% to 80% chance that Xiao Yue will come up with big guns in half a year."

Su Ming heard the implication and puffed out smoke and asked: "Why, someone made a bet on whether Xiao Yue can build a cannon?" Wu Kezhou laughed dryly and said: "Hey, Li Dazui made a bet, the odds are one to one hundred.

One thousand yuan per order, bet Xiao Yue to find the boss within five days to beg for mercy. Can he build a cannon? Who dares to open this kind of handicap, and no one will place a bet if it is opened. Hehe..."

Seafarers have high incomes, and fixed allowances are only superficial. For example, when training new people, a subsidy of 100 yuan is provided for each class. Everyone has a share, which is equivalent to getting double subsidies. In addition, when the ship is launched, maintained, and inspected, regardless of the length of time, there is more than 100 yuan.

subsidies. Therefore, these guys can still make money to play without cashing in their private goods. The gambling table is open every day, and there is never a shortage of handicaps.

"You can bet whatever you want." Su Ming put out the cigarette butt and looked at the people on the front line. "It's best not to be exposed. Otherwise, no one can protect you."

Wu Kezhou didn't dare to look at him and sighed: "Okay, Brother Su, I promise not to place a bet."

The good talk got involved in gambling, but the talk failed. Su Ming said: "Tell Xiao Yue to set up a team of personnel before talking about other related materials. We will try our best to find a way to satisfy them. Today, we will take him to collect steel plates and scrap iron first. I trust him.

It'll come in handy." After saying this, he waved to see the guest off.

Settling down and seeking development, collective habitual thinking. Yate ordered the manufacture of cannons, which seems to be a revelation. It is easy to understand that it is easy to understand how to build something that is in short supply. Is it necessary to build cannons? Taking the establishment of the town of Ushuaia as the time point,

It must have been before 1870. This means that the most powerful weapons in the outside world are at most sailing battleships. And with the 80-round cannon of a large warship per minute, it is easier to blow up a sailing battleship than to draw water. It takes a lot of people and money to build the most primitive cannon.

, if it’s not just messing around, what is it?

“It’s better to do it early than to do it late!”

After sending Wu Kezhou away, Su Ming said to himself. The sailors protected each other and made the camp a mess. It was not too idle and noisy. He supported Ye Te from the bottom of his heart to mess around. Action is the best support, and he wanted to follow the trend and "throw around".

, type the word "papermaking" on the computer.

Two hundred and ninety people consumed it, and the first material in crisis was toilet paper. Originally, eleven ships of daily necessities could not be used up in a year. These days, everyone maintains the old habit of not finishing the ten pieces of paper for each meal.

, there are a lot of people there. Not to mention toilet paper, Wu Kezhou wants to shoot people when distributing it every day. The waste is serious, which is not the reason. Everyone "hides" or steals, free of charge. Seeing the rapid consumption of toilet paper, Mo Man

Come up with countermeasures: limited free, excessive charges. Three pieces of table paper and six pieces of toilet paper per person per day are not enough to buy. A pack of paper towels is 50 yuan, and a box of tissue paper or a roll of paper is 100 yuan. No money.

?There is no money to work overtime, and there is plenty of work to do in the fleet and camp. Recently, everyone is talking about it. It is said that a pack of tissues on the sailor's gambling table can really be mortgaged for fifty yuan.

"Looks like we really need to build a cannon!"

After typing out three project proposals in one breath, Su Ming thought of Ye Te's "big brain". If he stayed in Tierra del Fuego for a long time, he would first solve the problem of eating. The staple food may be enough, but there is not much non-staple food left. He doesn't want to eat every meal.

Seal meat can only be harvested from the sea. The fastest and most profitable fishing is whaling. Tierra del Fuego is rich in seals and is also a place where whales like to hang out.

"Whaling Cannon."

After typing these three words, Su Ming's depression of making a snitch was gone. Building a whaling cannon is far less difficult than building a cannon. The manufacturing process can provide training for the cannon. Once it is built, the sailors will have no time to spare.

Whaling is exciting and fun, and a bunch of bored guys are likely to rush to do it. While providing non-staple food, it also reduces the pressure on public security, killing two birds with one stone.

"I gave it to him the day before yesterday. It has nothing to do with me whether he sees it or not."

"I will read it. If he doesn't, Mr. Ye will also read it. I am a Ph.D. from 211 University. Thank you, Brother Xing."

"Whoever is your brother, call him captain."

"Yes, thank you, Captain."

Su Ming typed out a few pages of the project application form and connected it to the printer to print. Xing Datong and Fei Dade, "brothers in distress", passed by the window and had a strange conversation that made him laugh.

Xing Datong is a professional and is familiar with firearms. He is responsible for looking after homes and nursing homes. He may or may not go to the shooting range training. Feida has not recovered long and is replenishing his physical fitness and disassembling pistols. He was placed in the former security team and usually does odd jobs.

.I want to be unwilling to be lonely and propose some kind of plan to Ye Te.

The group of nearly 300 people is not a small one, and there are many people who want to make progress and "become officials". Moman's economic plan was replaced by a financial director. The imitators "continued", and Su Ming took five of them.

In this regard, Ye Te is very strict about organizational principles. He will never get involved in materials that are not recommended by several superiors or management. Fei Da is very shrewd and follows the path of "honest man" Xing Datong. Leave it to him, Su Ming, and 90% of the time he will get it.

It's hard to see the light from the bottom of the box.

"Wait, Captain, do you still have those dollars?"

"Why, do you want to take it back?"

"No, no! Did you hear that? The private goods brought by the sailors must be returned to them. If the goods cannot be returned, they will be converted into money, and then they will distribute them."

"It's none of my business, what do you want to say?"

"Oh, I want to say that we, a group of people, have to think of something. We have no goods. Do you have some U.S. dollars? Those construction workers got three thousand U.S. dollars after boarding the ship. If the commander is merciful, let the U.S. dollars be converted into RMB.

.Although it’s not as good as a sailor, it’s still a little bit rich, isn’t it?”

Hearing this, Su Ming couldn't listen anymore. Thinking of Ye Te's abnormal arbitrary behavior these days, there was no doubt about it. What was it? He knew exactly what the sailors were thinking. Now it seemed that the newcomers also wanted to take the opportunity to get involved.

There is a large-scale undercurrent that cannot be turned a blind eye to.

Did he really regret it? He and Huang Yafa wanted to be together.

I regretted it at this juncture and let the extremely seductive MLM leader get involved...

"Seafarers should be the owners, at least half of the owners, of the supermarket at sea."

A few days ago, Fei Da had to spread such remarks in private. There was no market for trying to win over seafarers. The market has been occupied by "Uncle Ye is the major shareholder of Maritime Supermarket" and was "concocted" by Su Mingli in front of the camp. The undercover Interpol has authority, and then

The story of Ye Te's escape is a good explanation for the appearance of the uncle and nephew in the "Supermarket on the Sea". Later, this statement became deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, and the uncle and nephew did not explain it, which was nothing but acquiescence. So after hearing Fei Dade's remarks, Su Ming

At that time, he smiled proudly. But now, he was a little lucky that Feida had to eat US dollars as food and was in bed for a long enough time due to poisoning.

Xing Datong has been taken advantage of, and the MLM leader is so pervasive!

Su Ming was a little nervous.

"Old Huang, has the list been finalized?"

"No, several candidates for barge captain are unwilling to work unless each ship is equipped with six veteran seamen."

"How is that possible? Where are the other people? The captain doesn't have anyone to do it either?"

"Oh, that's a barge! Our trip is uncertain for tens of thousands of sea miles. There is a serious shortage of manpower, with three seamen leading a group of rookies. The captain's standards are at the lowest, and everyone I ask says no. Oh, do you have anyone to choose?

"

"I didn't. I said, it's up to you. I'll go to the shooting range and shoot a few shots. Call me when you've decided."

The cow's trouble is not over yet, the horse's trouble has happened again!

Su Ming put the walkie-talkie on his tactical vest and put on his helmet with a sigh. Regardless of whether there was nepotism in important positions on the ship. The position allocation was difficult and would inevitably affect the training plan.

"Maybe it's not a bad thing?"

He was worried about everything, but the one with the headache was the boss. Su Ming put down his problems in his heart, and immediately relaxed after adjusting his position. He shouldered his P90 submachine gun, opened the door to the dormitory, and ran out of the camp. He had to face Ye Te and do everything according to Ye Te's advice.
