I want to be a good person

After a day and night of cold wind blowing, the train arrived at Dalian Port.

There were only three short stops on the way to restock coal and water. No one came to steal wood, which were the most abundant things. Otherwise, how could there not even be an armed Japanese escort?

The pace of development is so rapid, and the mentality of using Northeast resources to feed back to Japan is so urgent.

In the mid-term of the Republic of China, railway workers were treated well. After the great strike struggle led by the Party, they were given 15 days of official leave every year, two sets of work clothes a year, and could retire at the age of 60 with their wages still paid.

At the dock, Zhang Aiguo, like other coolies, carried large bags and loaded food onto the Japanese transport ship through the swaying planks.

With back aching, the foreman gritted his teeth and took steps forward, the chips in his hand decreased one by one, which were receipts for settlement.

As a casual worker, I do temporary jobs.

I stopped and wanted to drink some water. My thin clothes were soaked with sweat. I was tired, really tired!

Carrying a heavy bag is the best way to blend in and observe. Which ship should I take to Japan?

You can't just do it randomly.

Four Japanese soldiers were standing on the pier, leading two wolfhounds and staring fiercely at every worker.

A dozen fake police officers kept walking around and intimidating the coolies. There was only a rope between them and the wolfhounds.

Dozens of people kept carrying the goods, and their sweat made their feet wet and formed a thin layer of ice.

"thump"

Someone fell into the sea, but the coolies didn't make a sound or look up. They just walked carefully on the road under their feet. There were a few planks and people coming and going, which were more swaying than the tow ropes.

The man's head popped up in the sea, two meters above the surface of the sea, and was no longer seen. When the foreman heard about this, a smile appeared on his face.

At noon, I had two mixed-wheat steamed buns, corn and acorn flour, a bowl of cold porridge, and a small piece of pickled cabbage.

The porridge was distributed by charity halls run by gentry.

I was a little exhausted, so I exchanged the chips in my arms for money, 5 cents. The foreman deducted 2 cents from me, saying that it was a mutual aid fund for peers. What an exploitative class!

Damn, it sounds nice, but it looks like a cross, which was dyed red with the blood and sweat of so many people.

Thinking of the foreman's face, I smiled and said, "Do you want to do it or not? If not, get out. There are plenty of people vying for this job!"

I endured it again and again, and really wanted to shoot him to death.

I endured the ordeal until the end of the work, and the only confirmed information was that the ship was returning to mainland Japan. Thinking about the temporary suspension of work in the afternoon, God really rewards hard work!

"My dear men, the locust army said we have worked hard, let us take a break, drink some water, and thank the locust army for their grace."

"Boss, what are the locust troops bringing?"

"Cars, what a fool!"

Zhang Aiguo slumped his shoulders, lowered his head, and handed over a cigarette.

"Okay, you are capable of doing things. Just for this cigarette, as long as you are obedient, you will be able to do the work. If you do a good job, I will let you become my disciple."

"You guys too, fucking do it."

Getting started means joining a gang.

The envy in the eyes of the casual workers is hard to conceal. Times are progressing, and even a small foreman can make big promises!

"Don't worry, Boss. I will definitely work hard and make money so that you can marry me another sister-in-law!"

"what!"

"You are a good boy, and you can speak very nicely. I like to hear that!"

"Hey kid, don't blame me for charging you 25 cents. It's a rule, okay?"

The foreman took a deep puff of his cigarette and exhaled forcefully.

"I only get five fucking cents, and I have to take responsibility if anything goes wrong. It's not easy to make money!"

"Work hard, let's win over some people, and when I get promoted, you will definitely get some benefits."

This is the rhythm of preparing to kill the big brother and waiting for an opportunity to take over. It's really a promising job!

Zhang Aiguo smiled along, wondering in his heart what the Japanese were pretending to be.

The Japanese drove a total of six trucks, three of which were three-wheeled. The security was very strict and they carried the boxes on board personally, which must have been valuables.

It was dark and the moon in the sky was too shy to see people.

The lights were on at the dock and the laborers were still working.

"thump"

Someone fell into the water again.

"Who?"

"Liu Zhi"

Oh, isn’t this the little brother I just recruited?

The foreman's face was filled with regret. He fell down on the last trip. It was a bad start. He had better just do his job honestly!

Zhang Aiguo felt very cold after falling into the icy sea water. His body was losing temperature rapidly and small waves were surging on the sea surface.

I took a sip of soju to warm my hands and feet, and looked up from the water. The middle of the ship's side was more than 3 meters high, and I could not get close to the gangway on one side. The tall chimney used a reciprocating triple-expansion steam turbine. There were sailors moving around, so how could I climb up?

I couldn't soak in the sea water for a long time, so I couldn't visually estimate the length of the steel-hulled ship, the Nitta Maru. When it was fully loaded with cargo, the water level was just at the waterline. It seemed to be a 2000-ton ship, quite similar to my own ship.

After counting, there were less than 20 Japanese devils on the ship. He was alone and had no way to hold them hostage, so greed began to creep in.

Zhang Aiguo held the wood and swam to the outside of the bow. With the cover of night, he climbed up along the anchor.

The Republic of China's navy was tiny, and the searchlights on the dock covered the dock area, so they didn't take any precautions at all.

After climbing to the anchor chain barrel, Zhang Weiguo tried but couldn't get in.

He held the chain tightly with his left hand, pressed his body against it to avoid the wind, and swung his claws with his right hand.

"when"

The flying claw caught the object and pulled it hard, and it fell down. This happened four or five times before it was finally caught.

As he climbed up, Zhang Aiguo felt that his face had turned pale and he was almost exhausted.

This ship is actually a long bridge-style building with many traces of activities on one and a half floors, and the cockpit and cabins are together.

There are three cargo holds on the ship, two in the front and one in the back.

Zhang Aiguo dodged and used the equipment on the deck to hide himself.

Zhang Guo swung open the cargo door, slipped in, and closed it. The cargo hold was full of food and felt steaming inside.

What are the Japanese trucks transporting?

It is said that there is a lot of gold in the Japanese homeland. I really want to go and see it, but I am just a layman.

After changing clothes and drying my hair, I ate some dried meat and Yamato canned food to restore my strength while thinking that things were troublesome and a bit reckless.

The Japanese will definitely arrange frigates to accompany us. How can we avoid them?

Operations at sea would be suicidal, as the transport ships have no weapons or equipment.

If we really take a boat to the Japanese place, we won't know how they unload the goods. Once we get in, we suddenly find ourselves in a dilemma.

The transport ship is more than 70 meters long, almost 8 meters wide, and has a draft of more than three meters. With the front and rear masts lowered, the height of the boiler chimney plus the draft does not exceed meters, so there is great hope...

(Refer to Type 1C transport ship, 2400 tons, 14 knots speed)

Yes, there is hope. There is still some space if we squeeze it.

After finishing the food in his hand and swallowing the last sip of wine, he figured things out and became excited.

People cannot live without pursuits, and they must face difficulties head-on.

If you don't take what heaven gives you, you will suffer the consequences; if you don't seize the opportunity when it comes, you will suffer the consequences.

As for the island you want to go to, just go there openly and do it honestly. That's how you do it.

After deciding to get up, he opened the door and went to the deck, holding two bastard boxes, and walked towards the bridge area.

On a dark and windy night, it’s the time to kill!
