Chapter 151
In the battalion square, all the people surrounded the printer and watched
Xu Man, as the “founder”, had to be there as well
When the first wall was printed, there were still a few things that needed to be adjusted It took a lot of time, about a whole day
The second wall was smoother and much more efficient
By the time the third wall was completed, it had taken only twelve hours
There was no significant increase in efficiency after that, and it should be the highest speed achievable at the current level
This miracle-like printer caused the entire Rainbow Island to marvel!
The two big men, Tan Changlin and Luo Zemin, were as happy as two kindergarten children, shouting and jumping!
In the midst of all the hustle and bustle, the National Day came again!
The sympathy group went to the island as usual
This year, in addition to the delegation, the island’s sisters-in-law and new young lesbians, as well as kindergarten and elementary school children have prepared programs
The atmosphere was more lively than in previous years
Especially when the young lesbians went on stage to perform, the shouts of praise from the stage almost toppled Rainbow Island
Xu Wen covered her ears and leaned on Lu Yuanzheng’s shoulder, giggling
It was a bit noisy, but this was what was called “fireworks”
Halfway through the show, someone hurriedly came looking for Lu Yuanzheng
Xu Wen straightened up, so that Lu Yuanzheng could talk to him with a straight posture
Xu had seen him before, and even if she hadn’t, she would have known he was a sentry just by looking at his heavily armed appearance
Xu heard him tell Lu Yuanzheng that the people on the card had moved, and there were signs of an armed gathering
Lu Yuanzheng was a bit puzzled Ever since the Kaya hit Rainbow Island, it had been in a state of retreat, but why did it start to move now?
Do they want to take advantage of the holiday to attack the island?
This is not a small matter
Lu Yuanzheng ordered the show to be suspended, and all the officers and soldiers were immediately put into a state of readiness, with most of them transferred to the surroundings of Rainbow Island, while a small number of them stayed behind to protect the condolence troupe, the young girls, as well as his sister-in-law and the children
Xu Man quickly followed Lu Yuanzheng
“You stay here” Lu Yuanzheng’s expression was very serious and completely commanding, not allowing Xu Man to refute, with the intention of knocking her out on the spot if she didn’t agree
Xu Man was busy taking two steps back, “Don’t get excited I just want to ask you, do you need an interpreter?”
Lu Yuanzheng’s hand froze in mid-lift and he let out an ah
There were actually translators left on the island, but they couldn’t communicate as well as Xu Wen
Lu Yuanzheng thought about it and led Xu Man outside, at the same time ordering the clerk to get Xu Man a set of protection
Rainbow Island’s officers and soldiers didn’t have bulletproof vests, and the so-called protection was nothing more than a military-green steel helmet
Xu Man’s head was small, and with the helmet on, most of her face was covered
She followed Lu Yuanzheng into the car
This time is not a joke like electric car, is a military green jeep
The jeep drove fast toward the cliff
When they arrived at the edge of the cliff, both sides were already heavily armed, just waiting for their respective officers to give the order to start fighting
Xu Wen was a bit apprehensive, for the first time in her two lives, she was so close to a war, or to be exact, she was at the scene of a war
As an interpreter, she definitely couldn’t hide behind people She took a loudspeaker and stood on the edge of the cliff, shouting at the Kaya
Xu Wen was afraid of heights, and normally wouldn’t have gotten this close to the edge of the cliff, her small face wrinkled into a ball
Lu Yuanzheng knew she was scared, and propped her up with his hand behind his back
In the eyes of Caster at the bottom, it looked like Lu Yuanzheng was forcing Xu Man to threaten to back her off the cliff
Caster shouted, “Our warriors of Country F never use a lady as a shield”
Xu Man: “”
Seeing Xu Man’s delay in speaking, Lu Yuanzheng asked her, “What did he say?”
Xu Man pursed her lips, hesitating to speak
The officers beside Lu Yuanzheng had just graduated from the military academy, and their English wasn’t as good as Xu Man’s, but they could understand this one, and took the initiative to open their mouths to translate, “He said that we’re not manly, and that we’re using women as a shield”
Lu Yuanzheng: “”
Xu Wen was afraid that Lu Yuanzheng would ask her to translate any more difficult words, and grabbed the opportunity to speak, “Why do you guys want to attack Rainbow Island? Is it because you don’t want to live in peace anymore? Is this your own decision or is it your country’s intention? Do you know the consequences of what you are doing?”
Caster was surprised, “What? Aren’t you the ones who are going to come and fight us?”
Xu Wen: “”
Without the need for Lu Yuanzheng’s command, Xu Man opened his own mouth to ask for clarification
It turned out that Caster and the others thought that there was such a big commotion on the island, with the sound of people boiling over as if warriors were practicing before going out to battle
He thought that Rainbow Island was going to send troops to attack them
What was not said was that although Caster and the others refused to admit that they had put the sonar device in place, they had actually done it
Moreover, the devices that had just been set up a few days ago were all taken away by the people from the Road Expedition, and there were only a few sets of equipment left, which was still a pretty big blow to them
They themselves also knew that this was called talking nonsense with their eyes open
They had been afraid that the soldiers on Rainbow Island would be really anxious to fight with them
Now that they heard such a big commotion, how could they not panic
Xu Man explained the meaning of the National Day, stating that this was his country celebrating and had no intention of attacking them
The people on both sides cried and laughed after hearing Xu Man’s translation
Only Lu Yuanzheng was more or less resentful, and as far as his selfishness was concerned, he still quite wanted the two sides to fight
That way he could take the opportunity to beat up Caster
However, it was only a fleeting thought, he would not do such a woeful thing in any case
So he reassembled his team and brought them back to continue the unfinished show
After tossing and turning, the atmosphere dissipated quite a bit
Xu Wen was a bit tired and held out until Dongsheng’s performance was over, leading him home
The National Day was the same as before, with officers and soldiers taking turns to rest
The difference with last year is that last year there was only one boat that went to Zhongxing Island at regular intervals for everyone to play
This year there was an extra Pengcheng for everyone to choose from
Most of the outings are married officers and soldiers with their families
A few singles went out to buy necessities
Only a few young girls who are new to the island also chose to go out Not alone, but in the company of equally single soldiers
Such progress envied the lucky warrior’s comrades and really surprised Xu Wen
How many days had the girls been on the island?
This speed reminded Xu Man of the military training at the beginning of school in his past life, where often the half-month-long military training always produced a few couples
Lu Yuanzheng said that the young man will find a partner is not unexpected, people are hardworking will come to things mouth is also sweet is a recruiting young girls like the type, if not the island conditions are like this, it is expected to have been married
Xu asked: “”
The National Day period Xu Man, on the contrary, rarely have time to go out
The designer who built the ship came
Instead of the young designer Xu Man and the others thought he would be, there was an old designer with gray hair but a lot of spirit
The designer had a name that fit his profession, Ma Liang
It was very reminiscent of the boy in the fairy tale and his magic pen
Ma Liang also had a student named Deng Kai
What is interesting is the attitude of the two men when they first came to the island
While Ma Liang is smiling and approachable, taking the initiative to talk to Xu Man, Deng Kai is a bit like Tan Changlin when he first came to the island, a bit arrogant
The designer himself came to the island to be Xu Man’s paintbrush, so how can Xu Man still have the nerve to run around?
He honestly stayed on the island to draw with the old designer
As for Deng Kai, his job was more about taking care of the old designer and being his assistant
When Dongsheng had nothing to do, he would often come and follow and watch
He was only five and a half years old, he couldn’t really sit still and often ran outside
There is a saying that there are specialties in the arts, and one must admit that a connoisseur is a connoisseur
As soon as Xu Man described the specific appearance, the old designer knew what parts it was and what it was used for
The old designer drew a sketch, just a few strokes is a map, in Xu Man seems to draw better than he is
But in reality, it was like a medical prescription Although outsiders see it as a book, but the nurse and the pharmacy people can understand what the doctor wrote and how to use the medicine once they read it
Deng Kai was like a nurse or a pharmacy person, he could see what Ma Liang was drawing at a glance
After Ma Liang sketches, Deng Kai re-draws it
He drew very carefully, and the drawing came out a bit like the kind of drawings Xu Man had seen in his past life
Flat or elevated, each part was labeled with a serial number as well as a name
What he had redrawn were the drawings that could really be used for shipbuilding in the future
This old designer seemed to be particularly famous in their unit, so much so that Lian Zhenxing specially came from Haicheng to see him
Song Xueqin also accompanied him, and then Lu Yuanzheng had to accompany him even more
Dongsheng was happy, Dongsheng had a good relationship with Lian Zhenxing and followed him around
In addition to Xu Man’s group, there is another group of people who are not on vacation, that is, the officers and soldiers who printed the wall, as well as Tan Changlin and Luo Zemin
They were divided into several groups, taking turns on duty
A wall was successfully erected on the square
Even the revitalized Song Xueqin as well as Ma Liang came to visit
Tan Changlin also seemed to know Ma Liang, or had heard of him, and treated him with respect
This still made Xu Man quite strange
After hearing that this was also the result of Xu Man’s research, Ma Liang’s appreciation for Xu Man directly overflowed into words, ”The younger generation is fearful! Comrade Xu Man, you will definitely have a great future!”
Song Xueqin immediately picked up the compliment to Xu Man
He had met Xu Man quite a few times and was relatively familiar with her
Comparatively speaking, Lian Zhenxing was not too familiar with Xu Man Listening to Song Xueqin gush, he snorted in disbelief, “Look at that smug look on your face! Those who don’t know think that Comrade Xu Man is your daughter!”
“Not my daughter but my daughter-in-law!” Song Xueqin looked proud
“Or my daughter-in-law!”
Lu Yuanzheng: “”
Did anyone ever ask him if he was willing to be a son?
Though he didn’t have room to refuse either
The two of them were clearly not old enough to be like children, but they were so childish
Tan Changlin, who stood off to the side so sleepy that he kept yawning, turned his head sideways and asked Xu Man, “Wasn’t I as stupid as this dude when I first came to the island?”
Xu Wen gave an ah and followed his gaze to see Deng Kai
She tilted her head in thought and nodded, “People get on faster than you”
Tan Changlin stayed proud until Xu Man got angry before bowing his head And Deng Kai didn’t use three days to treat Xu Man with basically the same attitude as he did to his teacher, Ma Liang
Tan Changlin: “”
Xu Man added: “I didn’t expect you to have such a clear perception of yourself, it’s really quite silly”
Tan Changlin: “”
He took a deep breath, “I kind of sympathize now, with those women who say bad things about you”
Xu Wen reacted before realizing that he was talking about those sister-in-laws who had scolded her
Based on the principle of asking questions if you don’t understand, Xu Wen humbly asked for advice, “Why?”
“They will definitely end up worse off than me”
Xu asked, “”
Was this complimenting her or damaging her?
In the midst of the hustle and bustle, half of the wall printing was done, and the anti-sonar units were all installed
Although Lu Yuanzheng and his unit didn’t have such an advanced device but they were smart enough to change the sonar captured from the bottom of the sea, not for their use but definitely no longer for the Kaya’s either, and releasing sound waves different from the original ones, it was especially easy to interfere with the receiving device on the Kaya’s
Rainbow Island, all the large machinery that can move, such as cranes, extra-long plate trucks, even the armored were deployed as a transport vehicle, the joint efforts to move the printed wall to the sea
There were many ropes tied to the wall, all of which were in the hands of the frogman team
Because even if the crane got on the transport ship, the crane arm couldn’t reach the bottom of the sea
The material and weight of these walls doomed them to sink to the bottom of the sea
The ship’s soldiers and frogmen warriors hard by human force to prevent the wall crooked, but also have to pull them to fall into the right position and fixed
Just by imagining it, we know that this is a dangerous and laborious project
After they were fixed, the chains were not removed, but nailed to the bottom of the sea in case they fell on the Kaya
At first the men on the Kaya didn’t know what they were doing, and Caster stood on the deck watching the fun
Two days later he couldn’t stop laughing
He was no fool and knew exactly what the wall was used for, and even more so what the material painted on the wall and those sonar mounted on it were used for
From that day on, Custer never went on deck again
A week later, the Kaya was a sitting frog
Four walls surrounded the Kaya to death, without climbing to the top of the railing can not see the outside world
The only thing they could see was the small patch of sky above the Kaya
Tan Changlin and Luo Zemin finished their work and left the island first
When they left, Xu Man went to see them off
Luo Zemin was fine, he and Xu Man were partners who saw each other often, and even had a bit of excitement that he couldn’t wait to leave the island and go back to Pengcheng to show off his skills
Tan Changlin, on the other hand, was particularly reluctant to leave
Xu asked to tease him: “so reluctant to go, you stay do not go”
Who knew that Tan Changlin really considered it seriously for a while before shaking his head, “Not now! My colleagues said that the project isn’t finished yet I have to go back and finish my project before coming back”
Xu Wen only took this as a refusal and didn’t persuade him much
It was inevitable that f-nation would protest after receiving the news about the Kaya
Unfortunately, protests were useless
If you don’t want to, then you drive the Kaya away!
Drive it away?
If you don’t, you can park it at our house I’m kind enough to build a shed for your ship If you have a problem with that, then you’re just being mean or have ulterior motives
Besides, do you need others’ permission to build a shed in your own house? It’s not occupying other people’s land and it’s not affecting the neighbors’ behavior
Let’s tear it down?
Why should we?
Do you have something against our territory?
Or are your warships parked here with ulterior motives?
We’ll have to talk about that
Will the Fs admit it? Of course not
But this way, no matter what the Kaya’s intentions are, they can’t carry out their original plan without their eyes and ears
Their sonar won’t work, and their men will no longer be able to sneak out from the bottom of the sea
The Kaya, and the men and women on board, were in prison
This time, the maintenance engineers of the Kaya finally bought the “rare parts”, and soon delivered them to the Kaya, indicating that the ship was repaired and ready to go
Lu Yuanzheng and the others removed the tail wall and let the Kaya go
Thus, the nail in front of the house was finally pulled out
The whole island of Rainbow Island cheered
To celebrate this moment, a bonfire was held on the island at night
A light party, to be exact
It wasn’t suitable to light a fire on such a hot day
Xu Wen’s pregnancy reaction was also coming to an end, her small belly slowly protruded, but she would no longer like strange flavors or dry heaving in the morning and evening
The fourth to sixth month of pregnancy was said to be the most comfortable time in the pregnancy stage
It basically doesn’t interfere with normal life
Things like parties are fine to come to
It was still the familiar buffet and barbecue
Xu Wen’s female students also came to attend
Each and every one of them now regarded Xu Man as a role model and admired him to the core
At first, they felt duped because Xu Man didn’t talk much about classroom stuff either, except for teaching them to study on their own
Half a month later, Xu Man sent out another test paper, and although the paper wasn’t the same one as last time, the questions were similar
After a few of Song Bo Ying and the girls helped read the papers, Xu Man sent out the papers from both times
In the first paper, only a few of them were able to score more than eighty points, and less than half of them passed
The second time, one-third of those who scored more than eighty points passed two-thirds
This was mainly due to the fact that people were educated differently in their locations and had different levels of literacy
The two sets were of similar difficulty, and even the second set of papers was slightly more difficult than the first
The contrast between the two scores is too obvious to be unconvinced
Seeing that everyone had basically grasped the skills of self-study, Xu Man only began to teach the content related to the college entrance exam
Not to mention that Xu Man had the Magic Mirror as a cheating artifact, even if he didn’t, Xu Man’s own real cultural level alone could teach the high school students of this era just as well as play
A lot of future learning experiences and methods are really valuable now
Besides, the college entrance examination in a few decades and the current college entrance examination is not a difficulty at all
If Xu asked to have the heart, completely can start their own business to open a tutoring school
After all, the individual economy is now more and more free
When it came to entrepreneurship, Luo Zemin was the one who was good at it!
Not only did he have the skills but he also had a special business mind
