He said: "What kind of investigation are you going to do? I have to send people to protect you. The natives don't ask why they kill people. As long as you are a stranger, it is enough."
He talked about something that happened not long ago. A hawker who often went to a native village to do business was killed on the road for no reason.
"...The natives are very suspicious and fickle. We were having a good conversation with you a minute ago, but your word or look, or if his tribesmen have any different opinions, will kill you right away!" Wei
Bachi shook his head, "Especially in the area at the southern tip of Xiaoliuqiu where you are going, the natives are notoriously cruel. The Pingpu people here are afraid of them. Now we have to be armed when we go out to take pictures of refugees to build infrastructure.
No protection is allowed."
Fang Jinghan felt a little horrified when he heard this - he and his colleagues from the remote exploration team have gone deep into the Shengli area of Hainan Island more than once. Although the other party is often hostile and distrustful of outsiders, as long as there is a guide to lead the way, the two parties can still communicate.
And they are quite friendly to the traders who bring their goods - they will never kill people for no reason.
Liu's face didn't change: "I'm afraid of birds, so I don't believe that my two revolvers are vegetarian. Let's kill a few villages first!"
Dr. Zhong saw that Xiao Fang was timid and wondered what kind of medicine was being sold in the Wei Bachi pot. According to the basic books he had read before setting off, several indigenous tribes in Taiwan were a headache for the Dutch.
In Madou and Xingang, only a few dozen European soldiers and a few hundred indigenous "Imperial Association Army" were able to solve the problem: killing dozens of people and burning down a village would force them to surrender. When the Dutch first arrived in Taiwan
I felt that the natives were a threat simply because they did not have enough troops at the time. With the strength of the Senate in Tainan, it would have been commonplace not to carry out a proactive sweep - more than half a year after the landing, none of the local Tagalyan and other ethnic groups had
Going out to engage in hostile activities speaks volumes. There is no need to be so alarmist.
What if Fang Jinghan doesn't go, is he "spreading panic" if he reports back to Lingao?
After everyone had had enough wine and food, Wei Bachi invited them to his office to "take a rest." Wei Bachi's office is located on the second floor of the city government. It occupies a large room - Dr. Zhong visually estimated that the area is at least
One hundred square meters, with large windows. The room is extremely bright. A heavy desk made of solid wood is covered with Lingao tempered glass panels. On the wall behind him hangs a wooden coat of arms and a clock.
Dr. Lishi has also participated in several meetings as a consultant on various emblems of the Senate, but has never seen this strange emblem.
He could not see Wei Bachi's personnel information, but anyone who knew his ideals would know that this was the badge of the General Administration of Labor Reform Management in Wei Bachi's plan.
On both sides of his desk were hung the Morning Star Flag and his personal Veterans Flag, which looked very grand.
The most eye-catching thing in his office is a huge display board on which he wrote "Kaohsiung's Second Five-Year Plan" in black imitation Song font. The picture below was drawn by himself.
Even though Wei Bachi had never studied planning, what he had in mind was purely self-study for fun. However, the planning drawings are quite satisfactory, and they are a bit like a hobbyist going to the sea.
Seeing that Dr. Zhong was very interested in the plan, Wei Bachi stepped up and explained enthusiastically:
"Dr. Zhong, look, this is the overall planning concept for Kaohsiung City. It has not been submitted to the Planning Institute. Please take a look and give me some advice..."
Wei Bachi was frothing at the mouth as he explained, and the more Dr. Zhong listened, the less interested he became - he felt that it was like going to a third-tier city for dinner with someone in the old time, and the city leaders talked about building the city into an "international" city.
A flavor of "a modernized metropolis".
What "... Kaohsiung is uniquely endowed to develop military industry. Based on military industry, it must develop supporting industries such as steel and chemical industries. At the same time, it should engage in some light industries such as textiles and food, as well as some equipment manufacturing. It will form an industrial system that can operate independently. Support various industries.
Actions like this."; "The chemical industry cluster based on the Kaohsiung 10-million-ton refining and chemical integration project of Imperial Oil Company, the shipbuilding industry cluster based on Kaohsiung Iron and Steel Corporation and Kaohsiung Shipyard, and the Kaohsiung Heavy Machinery Plant.
Equipment manufacturing cluster. The military industrial cluster based on the Empire Factory 1024 will be lined up in the Kaohsiung Port Area of the old time and space..." Just these words sound suspicious.
Zhong Lishi then just said yes, without expressing any specific opinions. Wei Bachi saw that he had no reaction when explaining his grand plans and great achievements, and his interest was lost, so he immediately ordered people to arrange residence for several elders.
Since Zhong Lishi's main task this time was to install several clock machines, he went directly to the Customs Building to facilitate the construction. As for Liu Zheng and Fang Jinghan, they stayed directly in the newly built Kaohsiung City Guest House.
The guest house was prepared for the elders who have been coming to Kaohsiung recently. It was built in a sparse tall forest at the foot of the mountain. With the mountain behind it and the sea, it is both ventilated and shaded. It is surrounded by barbed wire and trenches. The buildings inside are also wooden structures with high legs.
House. It’s just that the construction is more exquisite. This is a building complex designed by Zhang Xingpei using his imagination:
In the middle is a large domed stilt house. With this circular stilt house as the center, it is surrounded by 21 small stilt houses on two floors. These small stilt houses are all made of ropes.
The bridge connects to the large stilt house in the center.
"Damn, it's like making a movie!" Liu Zheng couldn't help but say.
All roofs are covered with a thick layer of thatch for waterproofing and heat insulation - Kaohsiung has a tropical monsoon climate with high temperatures and rainy weather. Thatch can effectively insulate the heat from direct sunlight and slide away rainwater, so even the exterior walls of wooden panels
Thatch bales were also used as insulation.
Liu Zheng and Fang Jinghan saw this kind of stilt house up close for the first time. Although this house looks primitive, it actually contains many technologies that are beyond the times.
The stilt house structure in Kaohsiung was designed by Zhang Xingpei. In addition to being easy to process and install, it also fully considered the local climate and natural conditions.
The feet of the stilt house are diagonally braced to enhance its stability. Purlins, roof trusses and grass bundles on the roof are firmly tied with ropes to prevent them from being uncovered.
The wooden house itself is built in a round shape, and the roof is designed in the shape of a steamed bun. This kind of steamed bun-shaped house is close to streamlined and has better aerodynamic performance - the indigenous people on the Pacific Islands do have this kind of steamed bun-shaped stilt house, which is good at resisting typhoons.
showed its value.
After the architectural design drawings were released, Zhang Xingpei specially made several scale models and sent them to the Fluid Power Laboratory of the Ministry of Science and Technology in Gaoshanling for wind tunnel testing to verify their windproof performance.
The ladders in each house are installed from the bottom and stowed away at night, just like the downward-opening ramps of a B2 bomber.
"This is simply the mother ship of UFO." Fang Jinghan exclaimed. He noticed that all the stilt houses had saucer-like devices at the feet.
"This is useful for preventing snakes and rats from climbing." Liu Zheng had been to many mountainous areas in the southwest in the old days and was well-informed.
"Chief Fang, you live at No. 14, and Chief Liu, you live at No. 19." Wei Bachi's life secretary, who was leading the way, said with a smile.
No. 14 and No. 19 are both single-occupancy rooms. There is nothing else except a bed, a desk and a cabinet. The room is quiet and cool. The doors and windows are equipped with iron mesh screens - this
The product was trial-produced and put into mass production by the Industrial Energy Commission ordered by the Planning Institute under the strong request of the Ministry of Health. In order to minimize the loss of labor and minimize the harm of malaria in the development of Taiwan and Hainan, this is an indispensable defense.
means.
"Bathrooms, toilets, laundry rooms and restaurants are all in the central hall," the life secretary introduced. "There are people here to serve the chief 24 hours a day. You just need to pull the summoning rope in the room and someone will serve you."
"Not bad, whose idea was this? I think he should engage in tourism development." Liu Zheng praised.
"I don't know this, but it must be the crystallization of the wisdom of a certain great leader." Wei Bachi's life secretary said in respectful and enthusiastic words.
Liu Zheng asked casually: "Are there any other elders here?"
"There are quite a few. Veterans of the navy sometimes come here, stay for a few days and then go to sea again." The life secretary replied, and she added with a smile, "I don't know the details. You can go to the service desk during dinner.
Just ask and you will know.”
When Wei Bachi welcomed Zhong Lishi and the others on the roof, Li Siya made up as a fisherman girl in the same outfit and sat on a small fishing boat.
The boats were piled with fish and shrimp. Since the establishment of Kaohsiung as a city, the Coast Guard has set up a guard area in Kaohsiung and stationed patrol boats. Immediately afterwards, the "fishing tax" system was implemented in the waters near Kaohsiung.
There were originally Fujian fishermen fishing in the waters from Beigang, Da Yuan to Kaohsiung. However, this place is quite far away from the coast of Fujian, and with the presence of the Dutch, there are not many fishing boats. Wei Bachi set up here
They established a fishery cooperative, recruited nearby Fujian fishermen to join the cooperative, loaned fishermen boats and food, and purchased catches. They sent patrol boats to patrol and protect fishermen's operations. These measures attracted many fishermen to come here to fish - although they had to pay one-fifth of the fishing fee.
The tax on the catch is a bit heavy, but it can provide a sheltered anchorage, sell the catch nearby, and replenish drinking water, which saves the time of traveling to and from the mainland. In addition, the safety is guaranteed, so the fishermen are still happy to accept it.
Li Siya has had the experience of playing the role of a fisherman woman many times, so there is no flaw in her dress. She asked Guo Huaiyi to prepare this boat, which is a serious boat with a fishing license flag.
