Another busy day ended, and Lola returned home with a tired body. Aunt Anne has not yet returned home. Recently, wars in Europe are in full swing, and orders for various military supplies soared, and all factories are working overtime. For example, the leather goods processing factory that Aunt Anne went to, which was said to be run by several senior army officers, has been working overtime for three consecutive weeks recently, saying that it was to complete the order for large batches of ammunition packs and leather boots for the Spaniards.

Speaking of my aunt's work, it was arranged by Mr. Shinzaemon, the Inspector of the Intelligence Bureau. Although this oriental man looked cold, he was actually an enthusiastic person. He used to send his pirate neighbor to Majima once, and this time he helped my aunt solve the work.

In fact, Lola hasn't seen Shinzaemon for a long time. The intelligence agent walking in the shadows seems to be very busy recently and has been chasing several leaks at the Dayu River Naval Shipyard. Lola vaguely heard that the State Intelligence Administration had quarantined and reviewed more than ten people in the factory, and finally arrested three of them, and lowered the level and salary of five technicians who disclosed information in violation of regulations.

Speaking of this leak case, Lola, as a new generation of technician at the Dayu River Shipyard, also heard something. Perhaps afterwards, a technician (also a Dutch spy) was passing on various data from the domestic "Super Yong" fast cruiser, and was broken into the door by intelligence personnel who had long been suspicious of him. Two Dutch spies who were connecting were captured on the spot. After interrogation, the Dutch spy hidden in the Dayu River Shipyard admitted that he had accepted the employment of the Dutch East India Company and had successfully transmitted intelligence to the outside world, namely the design parameters of the "Yangwu"-class fast cruiser designed by the East Coast people in the early design.

This kind of scandal broke out in the factory. Naturally, everyone has no good life. This is not. Even Lola, who has always been low-key on weekdays, was questioned by an intelligence agency. She was temporarily transferred from a sensitive job because of some things that had happened before, which made her feel very angry. Therefore, after thinking for a long time, Lola decided to change the environment. I heard that the shipyard in the New China Colony had just been opened and all kinds of shipbuilding technicians were urgently needed, and they also gave generous conditions to attract talents. That is, every local technician who settled there would get a piece of land no more than twenty acres of land for free, and allowed you to redeem an additional thirty acres of land, which was extremely generous.

Although I heard that the land there is mostly barren brick red soil. If you plant it, you may not have much output, but you can choose to buy some woodland. Not to mention the priceless trees growing on the woodland, even if it is useless shrubs and forest land, you can plant some fruit trees, tea trees, etc. After cleaning it, with the rapid development of the country's economy and the increasing income level of the people, these investments will definitely get rich returns in the future. I heard that after the introduction of lychee trees from the east, many local nobles began to spend money to buy land there and then prepared to hire people to plant this tropical fruit tree.

For example, a team leader of the Scarecrow who had been ripped off by Lolala many times in the South African River Fort, joined forces with Toricali and Viviani to buy an island with hundreds of meters in the New Huaxia Bay. He began to plant some flowering fruit trees and breed bees. He heard that the watch factory they jointly established was very popular in China. Therefore, it is not short of money to buy such an island with no development value. Not only that, the guy also attracted Frank, the son of the Baron Toulouse, France, to invest in the corn deep processing (i.e. winemaking) industry in the New Huaxia Colony, which was very prosperous.

When the deputy director who decided to recruit Lola to the factory heard about Lola's idea, he boldly advised him to go to the Far East Hei Shui Port to develop without success. Because he heard that there would also be a ship repair shop there in the early stage, so it is highly likely that he would upgrade to a shipyard. Therefore, when the ship repair shop is still unknown, you should squeeze in first, and when the scale over there is bigger and more technical personnel, your status will naturally rise. At that time, you will find a way to transfer back to your local job, which is much better than if you and a large group of people are scrambling to live in three shipyards in China.

After considering it, Lola agreed to the proposal. In her thoughts, there was not much difference between New China and Heishui Port, and it was far away. Hearing her answer, the deputy factory manager was obviously relieved. It was a foregone conclusion that Heishui Port wanted to build a shipyard. The Ministry of Transportation assigned technicians and craftsmen to the three shipyards under its jurisdiction (Dayuhe Factory, Zhenhai Factory, and Modern Factory), and asked each unit to send several people to set up the shelves on the other side of Heishui Port. How could technicians and senior craftsmen who lived very well in the local area be willing to work in such a place where birds do not shit, each of them gave many reasons to shirk. At this critical moment, Lola actually took the initiative to go to overseas colonies to work. How could the deputy factory manager let go of such a good thing? Therefore, after some tricks, he fooled Lola to Heishui Port in the Far East - a city still in the wilderness.

With a "squeak", the door was pushed open, and Lola, who woke up from her reverie, turned her head and looked out. Aunt Anne walked in with a basket of vegetables, with many fishy shrimps in the basket. Lola knew that the shrimp smelled so strong that her aunt probably went to the Dutch to buy cheap dead shrimps again. Although she had told her many times that it was not short of money, Aunt Anne still had always been accustomed to buying some cheap dishes. Occasionally, she was so distressed that she was so sad that she bought expensive flour. Lola was also speechless about this.

"Dear Lola, guess who did I meet today?" My aunt started shouting as soon as she entered the door, "I met Bogdan, by the way, that Albanian! He is now the deputy sheriff. I heard that he was promoted to deputy sheriff because he won the second place in the county's patrol system competition. Moreover, it is said that he will be sent to the Far East Hei Shui Port as the acting director of the police station, and is in the same place as you. I have asked him to take care of you."

Listening to her aunt's repeated words, Lola said "Oh" in a low mood, saying that she knew. But after thinking about it, she reminded her aunt, "Aunt Annie, try not to speak French when she is at home in the future. If the neighbors hear it, the Fengji police will come to the door to cause trouble again. Oh, by the way, they are no longer called Fengji police, they have been classified as military organization and have been changed to military police."

The Bogdan they mentioned was naturally Bogdan, the auxiliary police officer of Zhenyuan Township Police Station. Because of his outstanding performance in the years of fighting with Gao Qiaoma bandits, he has killed three people and seized several horses. Therefore, he was approved by the county police station to become a formal patrolman last year. However, once the luck comes, it cannot be stopped. In a competition between the county patrol system this year, Bogdan performed well and won the runner-up. Therefore, he was quickly promoted to a deputy police officer and assigned to Heishui Port in the Far East to preside over the work of a police station as a deputy police officer. It can be said that if nothing goes wrong, it would be natural for Bogdan to remove the word "agent" on his head a few years later and be promoted to a formal police officer.

As for Bogdan's acquaintance with Lola and others, this matter dates back a few years ago. At that time, this down-and-out Albanian man had just crossed the border and smuggled to the east coast, and was penniless, making a living by collecting cattle and sheep manure for people outside the city. Lola, who was still in school at that time, once saw him pitiful and once gave him a few cents. Later, Bogdan left Dongfang Port and went to Zhenyuan Township to make a living, and Lola gradually forgot about this matter.

But unexpectedly, at the end of last year, the Albanian, wearing a patrol uniform, rushed from Zhenyuan Township to Dongfang Port, and gave Lola one yuan in principal and interest. Only then did everyone know that Bogdan was in operation. The so-called heroes don’t ask where the source is. This Albanian who had fought with the Turks for many years was in the East Coast system that did not care about bloodlines and was only talented, and soon stood out and made a name for himself.

Today, I met Bogdan by chance on the street. After hearing that he was going to work in the Eastern Hei Water Port, Anne, who was worried that Lola would take office alone, asked Bogdan to help take care of her niece more. Bogdan naturally agreed. He was a person with a clear grudge. He had helped him in the most difficult time, so what is he doing now? It's just a small matter!

After the two finished speaking, they talked about something else. For example, a group of Ming people came from the New China region at the Dock of Dongfang Port; for example, in recent months, the business of leather goods processing plants has become more and more prosperous, so that everyone's overtime wages have increased significantly; for example, this year, the first batch of grain was produced by Dafengbao in the north, and the prices of flour, which were originally high-end rice and flour, fell in response to the sound; for example, a batch of high-end fabrics made of llama hair were transported back from the southern Baleen Whale Port, and sold in state-owned stores in the city, etc.
