Chapter 83 Looking for crew members to enter Huangshan Village

After discussing the price, the village chief and others drove away.

Hong Yun discussed with Hong Zhennan and decided to start construction directly.

Hong Zhennan sent two apprentices back to Hongxi Village to deliver a message.

Early the next morning, Hong Zhenhai brought the first batch of villagers to Chencun.

"Brother Yun, that's all for me to come and start construction today."

"There are some people who probably plan to wait and see, and my brother is urging them."

This time, Hong Zhenhai brought more than fifty people, both men and women.

It was basically a couple, which was something Hong Yun had specially advised.

The couple came here together. When working, the main force of the male and female helpers could also cook.

And having a wife follows you will be more motivated, right?

Otherwise, if other men earn too much and their own men are lazy, the wives will probably go crazy.

"Well, don't worry, the raw materials have not been shipped yet. You can take everyone to the village to arrange it today."

"We can live in the village as much as possible, but we can't take too much. We will take them to renovate the dilapidated yards today."

There are so many houses in the original village of Chen Village, and Hong Yun has no plans to move it for the time being.

For a while, the factory was not so easy to build, so where did the workers live?

Now there is a free village to live in, so it will definitely not be cleaned up at this time.

He asked Hong Zhenhai to take the villagers to the village to clean up. Hong Yun, who was idle, began to hold paper and pen outside the village.

While looking at the terrain, draw drawings.

He is not professional in this thing, but after all, he has a high vision and can draw a rough idea.

Then, if you ask a few architects of this era to design according to your own ideas, it will definitely be better.

"Brother Nan, I have to ask you to go to Hong Kong Island. The materials are one or two, and I have to find a few engineers who understand architecture."

"Don't be afraid of the high price. As long as you have the ability, the price can be as high as possible."

The drawings are almost done, and the outline is enough. He doesn't have the ability to do more details.

To find Hong Zhennan, this cousin must be letting his cousin take action today.

He is familiar with Hong Kong Island, and many things are indispensable. He needs to help him.

"Don't worry, Ah Jun, this little thing is not a big problem."

After Hong Zhennan nodded, he immediately ran away with his apprentices on horseback.

Although the waterway is closer, there is also a ship that the village chief and his team stayed before leaving, which is considered a ship delivered in advance.

But now they can't find any sailors who can drive such a big ship.

This made Hong Yun feel a little in trouble, and this problem seems to be difficult to solve.

"Ahai, are there many people in the village who will take the helm?"

If there is something in my heart, Hong Yun has no intention of practicing.

During lunch, he pulled Hong Zhenhai and asked.

"Yes, Brother Yun, our village is close to the river. Many people have boats at home, and our brothers have also driven them."

"Is that so good? How many people can enter the sea?"

After hearing what Hong Zhenhai said, Hong Yun felt a little relieved and quickly asked the most critical questions.

"This... Brother Yun, you are looking for someone who drives the big boat, probably not in our village."

"Our village drives small boats, so we are naturally not afraid of rivers, but if we want to enter the sea..."

Looking at Hong Zhenhai's sucking teeth, Hong Yun also knew that this really made them feel a little embarrassed.

But when they were in a dilemma, Hong Yun became even more embarrassing.

Although he also asked Hong Zhennan to help find a few experienced sailors on Hong Kong Island, even foreigners can do it.

But the distance water cannot quench the nearest thirst, and this time it takes at least one week to stop.

And the village chief of Chen Village and others will probably not be able to come back for a while.

Of course, even if you come back, it's useless.

Thinking of this, I suddenly thought of the village chief’s attitude when talking about the sailor’s issue.

If you taste it carefully, it won’t be right. The more you think about it, the more confused Hong Yun is...

It was a good time when discussing cooperation, and even outside the conversation, the village chief was very happy that Hong Yun did not buy all the boats.

In this way, the remaining ships they have come in handy and deliver goods to Hongjun through the river.

When he heard that Hong Yun wanted to recruit them, he immediately responded fiercely, saying that he was unwilling to go out to sea...

It’s just a joke. How big is the difference between running in the river and running along the coast?

"Ahai, why don't you find a few experienced people first and try it out?"

"See if you can control that ship, and by the way, see if there is any problem with that ship."

The village chief's attitude must have made Hong Yun look more cautious.

"Brother Yun, we can do the problem of seeing the ship, but we really don't dare to drive the ship."

"The sea is different from driving a boat in the river. It is too dangerous to suddenly enter if you are not in the sea."

Hong Zhenhai didn't want to go against Hong Yun's instructions, but this incident really made him embarrassed.

Even if he could sacrifice his life to do things for Hong Yun, others might not be the same as him.

"Hey, by the way, Brother Yun, I suddenly remembered that there is more than one Chencun in this area."

"Brother Yun, look, there is Xiao Huangshan over there, and there is a Huangshan village on it. There are many people in that village who also go out to sea."

"But they heard that there are no big ships in their village. If you want to go deep into the sea, you have to cooperate with Chencun. Therefore, the price of seafood in their village is relatively high and it is not easy to sell."

The sea goods in the village are not easy to sell, so they are naturally not as rich as Chencun, so their reputation is not as good as Chencun.

However, these have nothing to do with Hong Yun.

In his eyes, there were only sailors who could drive big boats.

"Oh, Huangshan Village? Do you have any acquaintances?"

"Yes, my brother Chao from their village...is Li Chao, we have a good relationship."

"Then Li Chao is not old, but he is an old sailor. He goes out to sea many times. It is said that the village chief of Chen Village wants to dig him several times."

When Hong Zhenhai mentioned this Li Chao, Hong Yun's eyes suddenly lit up.

"It's really a place to search for it without any effort. It's so great, Ah Hai, let's go over and take a look."

At this moment, Hong Yun immediately felt that he was full.

After slapping the food in the bowl in a few bites, wiping it, then getting up and walking out of the house.

When Hong Zhenhai saw this, he did not dare to neglect it.

He reached out and grabbed two handfuls of peanuts from the plate on the table, took two steamed buns and stuffed them into his pocket, and ran out.

“Can you get on a horse?”

"Yes, Huangshan Village is just halfway up the mountain. The mountain road is easy to walk on. I also visited his house last year."

In the courtyard, Hong Yun turned around and asked, and after getting the exact answer, he went directly to the stable next to him and untied his mount.

The two rode their horses all the way up the mountain to Huangshan Village.

Halfway through, Hong Zhenhai finally filled his stomach with the steamed buns he had put in.

"Hire...Brother Yun, look, there is Huangshan Village, and the family at the easternmost end of the village is Li Chao's family."

"Okay, let's go directly to Li Chao's house."

Following the direction of Hong Zhenhai's finger, Hong Yun saw a relatively new yard at the east end of the village.

However, it seems that there is a section of the courtyard wall that has fallen down somehow, and many broken bricks and tiles are scattered on the ground and no one cleansed them.

"It seems something is wrong. Did the Li Chao family get into a thief? Or was it robbed?"

After walking in, I looked carefully and saw that there was a wall on the front of Li Chao's yard, connected to the gate, as if someone had knocked down.

That way, it really seemed like the Japanese entered the village.
