Chapter 2923
The carriage that Li Yuande was riding in stopped at the door of a warehouse at Pier No. [-], and immediately someone trotted over and opened the door for him.Li Yuande himself does not have any personal assets in Sanya, this carriage is also Li Nai's car, and it is only temporarily lent to him.The conspicuous golden Furuifeng company logo on the carriage door can be seen from a long distance away. People who have worked here all year round can tell at a glance that important people from the Li family have arrived.
"Is everyone here?" Li Yuande asked as soon as the car door opened.
The person who opened the door for him was the steward on the pier, and he immediately responded: "Everyone is here, I will wait for you, young master, please follow me!"
Li Yuande didn't ask any more questions, and followed the steward into the warehouse.
The warehouse has quite a lot of space, and the goods stacked in it only take up less than half of the space, and near the door, there are several people sitting around using boxes as stools.Seeing Li Yuande coming in, these people immediately stood up and greeted Li Yuande.
Li Yuande cupped his hands to everyone and said: "Everyone has worked hard, let's sit down and talk!"
Li Yuande's route is not to be a high-ranking shopkeeper, but to run around and manage things with the ship, so he has always been unassuming.Moreover, these people present are capable people called by Uncle Li Nai to do things for him. There will be many places where they need to contribute in the future, and they are even more polite now.
Li Yuande didn't know all of these people present, so he asked the steward who led the way to introduce their identities and origins, and let these people get to know each other by the way.
These people are all the bosses of the ship that Li Nai recently transferred from various places. They have been traveling between ports in various parts of the South China Sea all year round. They have rich sailing experience and are in line with Li Yuande's mission requirements.
However, although everyone is working for Fu Ruifeng, they are running on different routes, and they are not necessarily familiar with each other.It wasn't until the steward reported their names and origins that they really got to know each other.
After Li Yuande greeted these ship bosses one by one, he introduced the main topic: "Thank you, everyone came to Sanya for a meeting. I was supposed to find a restaurant to receive everyone, but the next schedule is too tight, and I have to rush to Yinggehai Salt Field later. , I can only wait for a day or two to come back and then hold a banquet for everyone."
Everyone quickly expressed their gratitude. For them, Li Yuande was their boss, and it was their duty to serve him.As long as the pay is in place, you can go in the wind and rain, and it is not a big deal to have a meeting in the dock warehouse.
Li Yuande went on to say: "The reason for calling everyone here, I think you already know a thing or two when you receive the notice. The next task for you is to temporarily form a fleet in Sanya, and then go to the South China Sea with me. The army serves as logistical support."
"You are all capable people who are familiar with the situation in the South China Sea. I believe that you will be able to take on such an errand. I hope you will do your best both in public and in private. After this matter is over, the Li family will definitely have a reward!"
A man with gray sideburns said: "Young master, I dare to ask, how long is this trip to the South China Sea expected to take, so we can arrange things at home first."
Li Yuande replied: "It's not that I don't give permission, it's really because I can't be the master. Everyone, we are following the official army on this trip. How long we will stay in the South China Sea depends on the action arrangements of the official army. But things I don’t dare to inquire about military secrets, so please forgive me.”
Li Yuande paused, observed everyone's reaction, and then added: "The South China Sea is a long way away, and the transportation tasks we will be responsible for at that time may not include Sanya. I suggest that you prepare to stay in the South China Sea for a long time, and Let’s start with a one-year period! If you still can’t return to China after one year, then you can make adjustments according to the actual situation. But I promise that no matter where I go, I will try my best to keep you in touch with your family by letter.”
Another black and thin man asked: "I heard that the purpose of the official army's operation is to expand the territory. If we go to an unknown place, how can we receive and send letters?"
Li Yuande said: "It's okay, we are going with the officers and soldiers, and this matter can be resolved. I will greet the officers and soldiers at that time, and the letters we contact with our families will also be sent by military mail. You can rest assured."
Those present are all well-informed people, so they naturally know the special nature of military post.Military mail has a dedicated delivery channel, both in terms of speed and security, far surpassing civilian mail.And no matter how far the sending place is from the receiving place, military post does not cost money, which is one of the benefits that only soldiers can enjoy.It would certainly be a good thing if Li Yuande could secure such treatment for them.
Another boat boss asked, "Then what should we do next?"
Li Yuande said: "Everyone can rest in Sanya for a few days, and at the same time, let your crew prepare for the ocean voyage. After a few days, the various materials we purchased will arrive at the port one after another, and we will start loading. Waiting for the Ministry of National Defense As soon as the order arrives, we will leave as soon as possible.”
Someone asked: "Will there be naval protection during our voyage? Will we enter the theater and become the enemy's target?"
Li Yuande said: "As far as I know, we will not carry out high-risk combat missions, and the scope of activities should be within the scope of the navy's control. If we are lucky, we will not see the scene of fighting from the beginning to the end. That is to transport the wounded and prisoners of war for the military on the return journey.”
The expressions on the faces of everyone present were obviously a little more relaxed. Although going out to sea and sailing a boat is a very risky business in itself, there is no need to add risk to the risk.In case of being involved in a naval battle, an ordinary civilian ship is equivalent to a living target with no power to fight back.
Of course, Li Yuande's statement is somewhat exaggerated. He hasn't formally met with the military generals yet, and naturally he hasn't received a corresponding security promise. It's just to reassure these ship bosses.
As far as Li Yuande himself is concerned, he really wants to see the scene of the Haihan army fighting.Even if you can't become a navy, if you have the opportunity to see the navy in action, then it is not in vain to accept this job.
Li Yuande spent an hour answering various questions raised by the ship bosses in order to dispel their doubts.At the same time, he also generously stated that during the execution of special missions, the salaries received by the ship bosses will be doubled, and there will be other rewards after the mission is over.
Under the heavy reward, there must be a brave man. Even though they knew that this trip would have certain risks, the bosses who were summoned finally chose to accept the conditions offered by Li Yuande to participate in this special operation.
Li Yuande asked his followers to take a box of money from the carriage and distributed it to everyone, asking them to take it back and distribute it to the sailors on their respective ships as a reward before departure.
