Li Xuewu put down Wen San's phone number and called Jicheng again.

This time the delay was a bit longer, and it was finally picked up by Xilin.

She also relied on Zhang Wanhe's previous influence and was able to thrive in the local area.

And because of the presence of old Jianghu Ding Wanqiu, he didn't seem sad at all.

This is a low-level industry, and few people pay attention to it. In addition, their original low-key behavior, and the fact that the business is not personal, allows a few people to have no trouble.

When she received a call at this time, Xilin could guess who it was.

Although I was looking forward to it in my heart, when I answered the phone and heard Li Xuewu's voice, I felt a little silent.

Li Xuewu, however, was not in the habit of writing on the phone and asked bluntly: "How is Jicheng? Do the people coming down the mountain look different?"

"No, it's still like that"

Xilin's voice was a little muffled. This was the first time Li Xuewu called her, but all he asked about were business matters.

"Pay attention"

Li Xuewu warned: "After checking whether there are any abnormalities in the things and letters in hand, and then keeping an eye on this year's harvest, you can go to the mountains for a walk if necessary."

"knew"

Xilin took the phone and nodded in agreement. Seeing what Li Xuewu said, she asked worriedly: "Is there a change in Steel City?"

"It's okay, just keep an eye on Ji Cheng."

Li Xuewu paused, glanced at the old lady coming out of the restaurant, and listened to Xilin's dull voice and asked: "Do you have a cold? Take care of yourself."

"No, it's salty"

When Xilin heard Li Xuewu's caring words, her heart warmed inexplicably, and she quickly explained.

Li Xuewu said a few more words and then hung up the phone. Without even looking at Ji Weidong's curled lips, he dialed the phone and called Jicheng again.

This time the call was to my second uncle. The guard didn't know who the caller was. Hearing that it was Li Gan, he politely said "wait" and went to call someone.

Because they were not far away, the second uncle answered the phone quickly. When he saw that it was Li Xuewu, he smiled and said: "You kid, who did I think you were?"

"Haha, I miss you, I'll give you a call."

Li Xuewu also had a playful smile and waved to the old lady.

The old lady didn't know what was going on, so she saw Li Xuewu waving and walked over.

When Li Gan saw Li Xuewu talking nonsense, he laughed and scolded: "Stop talking nonsense, can you still miss me? Tell me, what's the matter?"

Li Xuewu motioned to the old lady to sit next to him, took the phone and said: "As I told you last time, a friend is in Jicheng and I have something to do with you tomorrow. Please do me a favor and go to the mountain."

"What should I do?"

Li Gan smiled and said: "Is such a small thing worth hanging up the phone? It costs money, right?"

After he finished speaking, he remembered something and asked, "Is your home nice? Where are you?"

At this moment, Li Xuewu had already handed the phone to the old lady. The old lady also recognized the voice of her second son on the phone. She took the phone and replied with a smile: "Second son~"

"Hey, Mom!"

Li Gan was quite surprised when he suddenly heard his old mother's voice, and asked with a smile: "Where are you? At home or at a martial arts school?"

"It's here at Xuewu. Xiaoning moved here after she returned home."

The old lady smiled and chatted with her son, as if she really saw her son in front of her eyes.

It’s not like she didn’t know that there was a telephone in the courtyard, but the old lady had never taken the initiative to call the children.

It's one thing that I don't know how to use it, and it's also another thing that I don't want to disturb the children.

She has a happy-go-lucky temperament and doesn't want to trouble anyone with these things.

The phone was prepared by the government for my grandson, and it was not for her to chat about everyday things.

If Li Xuewu hadn't thrust the phone into her hand today, she wouldn't have thought of calling the children.

But as soon as I picked up the phone, I couldn't put it down. I was concerned about this and that, and asked all my son's family questions.

Li Gan was also worried about his mother over there. He told her about the situation at home and then asked about her family in Beijing.

The old lady's answer was simple, she just said yes, she was a mother-in-law at first glance, she reported good things but not bad things.

I said a few words to my son, looked at my grandson who was standing at the door to talk, gave some more instructions, and then put down the phone.

She didn't know exactly how much it cost to make a phone call, but she knew it was expensive.

But she didn't know that Li Xuewu had never paid for the phone in his home, and no one asked for it.

The strange thing is that when he first took over the house, Li Xuewu discovered that there was a telephone in the study room on the second floor. He tried it and it still worked.

The house here has been there for a long time, and no one has come to collect the phone bill. Li Xuewu checked the phone line and found that it was connected to the main line box.

It's possible to call here, and it's possible to call out, but no one has come to see me.

He was also worried about leaks, or that it might be related to the previous owner of the house. He investigated carefully, but there was no news.

I also told Ji Weidong about this problem, but he did try it out, and the phone company couldn't find out the reason.

He was also very clever and did not tell anyone the truth. When he replied to Li Xuewu, he just said that he could use it casually. No one knew about it anyway.

Li Xuewu suspected that the previous landlord had somehow figured out the technical loopholes in telephone communication in this era and the gadgets inside.

He didn't understand either. Anyway, the phone was fine for daily use. He didn't use the phone to talk about urgent official business or things that needed to be kept confidential, so it didn't matter.

Now Ji Weidong and Ji Weidong were standing by the goldfish pond muttering about Steel City. Although I didn't know how Wen San'er would deal with it, and I didn't know how much Zhang Wanhe had crossed, just in this sudden, he was going to break one of Zhang Wanhe's legs.

.

Ji Weidong also had a preliminary understanding of Li Xuewu's arrangements in the Northeast, but he did not expect that Li Xuewu's arsenal was so deep.

In fact, the reason why he noticed the abnormality in the fleet was because people from the Investigation Department often went to Steel City. Li Xuewu felt relieved about Wen Saner, but the Investigation Department was not.

This is also the reason why Li Xuewu did not pay too much attention to the fleet.

The lives of everyone on the ship were in his hands, and the fuel supplies were all under the control of Wen Saner as planned. Where could the fleet go?

This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading! Now Li Xuewu is anxious, Wen Saner will complicate the identity of the people on the ship, and this is what Li Xuewu means.

Crazy to add sand into it, implement a rotation system, and implement a ship adjustment system. There is always a small group on a ship, which is safer.

Now the fleet is just starting up. When the training is almost complete, Li Xuewu will ask Wen San'er to implement an elimination system. The sand mixed in is only light, but he dares to replace it all with sand.

It’s hard to find seafarers all over the world? There are plenty of seafarers in Tianjin.

The key is to wait for the limelight to pass, to wait for the fleet to develop to a certain scale, and at least to hide what cannot be seen now.

The food had to be eaten one bite at a time, and things had to be done bit by bit. With the investigation department helping him keep an eye on the fleet, Li Xuewu had nothing to worry about.

The important thing is that what Li Xuewu told Ji Weidong is that every ship, every time it goes to sea, needs a person from the Investigation Department to follow it, no matter where it goes.

This actually made Ji Weidong look at Li Xuewu in a new light. He really didn't expect that Li Xuewu had such courage.

Dare to allow people from the Investigation Department to board the ship, which means that Li Xuewu is not afraid that the people from the Investigation Department will know what is on his ship, nor is he afraid that the Investigation Department will know where his ship has gone.

The sea is so vast, who knows where the ships are, and there are many places where they can be controlled?

But it was Li Xuewu who suddenly came up with this suggestion, which made Ji Weidong think that Li Xuewu had an ulterior motive.

Ji Weidong's intuition told him that there was no free dinner in this world, and it was impossible for Li Xuewu to provide him with free dinner.

This was what he was thinking, otherwise Li Xuewu would have asked him if all his food had been fed to the dog just now?

The development of Steel City's fleet is far from reaching Ji Weidong's expectations, but this is not a matter of the fleet, it is a matter of time.

He thought that the fleet would be able to go to sea now, but Li Xuewu did not dare to directly send out the fleet that he did not control.

Ji Weidong values ​​performance, while Li Xuewu values ​​stability and long-term success.

However, because of the changes in the situation, he did not have accurate information, so he was not in a hurry to urge Li Xuewu. He just reminded Li Xuewu that the construction of the fleet must be ahead of the port affairs side.

Li Xuewu felt that there was no problem. Of the twenty-seven ships, three could already go out. This was not a sequence problem of one plus one, but a geometric problem.

There are three today, and there may be ten the day after tomorrow. Even if they are broken up and reorganized, or mixed with sand, they will still be able to take shape before October.

In half a year, if there are no new crew members with the old crew members, then Zhang Wanhe will really have no choice but to go home and take care of his children.

Li Xuewu has no shortage of leaders here, and looking at those few brats from the capital, they will definitely not be honest.

Wen San'er's words also reminded Li Xuewu that it was time to prepare for things in the capital.

Ji Weidong used his hands to pull away the water flowing from the dragon's spit, and asked Li Xuewu with sideways eyes: "Can you tell me clearly, why do we have to let our people follow the boat?"

"Isn't this bad?"

Li Xuewu raised his eyebrows and said: "There are still many places over there with the fleet, and it is just right to build a base with the steel city. Don't your leaders have this idea?"

"You can't say that~"

Ji Weidong twitched the corner of his mouth, squinted his eyes, looked at Li Xuewu, shook his chin and said: "But he persuaded me to let you do this. You said it yourself, so I feel something is wrong."

"Haha, you have an occupational disease, don't you believe me?"

Li Xuewu smiled and said: "Isn't this based on the principle of win-win cooperation and mutual help? This is public service."
