Chapter 151

In the camp square, everyone gathered around the printer, staring at it eagerly.

As the "founder", Xu Wen must also be present.

When printing the first wall, there were still some places that were not smooth and needed to be debugged. It took a lot of time, about a whole day.

When we reached the second wall, things went more smoothly and our efficiency was greatly improved.

By the time we reached the third wall, it only took twelve hours.

There was no significant improvement in efficiency after that, and this should be the maximum speed that can be achieved at the current level.

This miraculous printer caused the whole Rainbow Island to gasp in amazement!

Tan Changlin and Luo Zemin, two grown men, were as happy as two kindergarten kids, shouting and jumping!

Amidst the busyness, National Day is here again!

The visiting delegation went to the island as usual.

This year, in addition to the visiting delegation, the sisters-in-law on the island, the newly arrived young comrades, and the children from kindergarten and primary school have all prepared programs.

The atmosphere on site was more lively than in previous years.

Especially when young lesbians perform on stage, the cheers from the audience are so loud that they almost overturn Rainbow Island.

Xu Wen covered his ears, leaned on Lu Yuanzheng's shoulder, and giggled.

They were noisy, but that was what we call a fiery affair.

The performance was barely halfway through when someone hurried over to find a way to start their expedition.

Xu Wen straightened up so that Lu Yuanzheng could speak to him with a straight posture.

Xu Wen had seen the person who came before. Even if he hadn't seen him before, he could tell that he was a sentry just by looking at the fully armed appearance.

Xu Wen heard him tell Lu Yuanzheng that the people on the card had moved and there were signs of an armed assembly.

Lu Yuanzheng was a little puzzled. Ever since the Kaya crashed into Rainbow Island, it had been in a state of huddling like a turtle. Why was it moving now?

Do you want to attack the island while the island is celebrating a festival?

This is no small matter.

Lu Yuanzheng ordered the performance to be suspended, and all officers and soldiers immediately entered a state of combat readiness. Most of them were transferred to the vicinity of Rainbow Island, and a small number stayed behind to protect the visiting group, the young girls, their sisters-in-law, and their children.

Xu Wen hurriedly followed the expedition.

"You stay here." Lu Yuanzheng's expression was very serious and his tone was completely commanding. He did not allow Xu Wen to object, as if he wanted to knock her out on the spot if she disagreed.

Xu Wen hurriedly took two steps back, "Don't get excited. I just want to ask you, do you need a translator?"

Lu Yuanzheng froze halfway with his hand raised and let out a cry.

There are actually translators left on the island, but they are not as good as Xu Wen in communication.

Lu Yuanzheng thought about it and took Xu Wen out, while asking the clerk to get a set of protective gear for Xu Wen.

The soldiers of Rainbow Island did not have bulletproof vests. The only protection they had was a military green steel helmet.

Xu Wen had a small head, and when he put on the helmet, most of his face was covered.

She followed Lu Yuanzheng into the car.

This time it wasn't an electric car for fun, but an army green jeep.

The jeep sped toward the cliff.

When they reached the edge of the cliff, both sides were already fully armed, waiting for their respective commanders to give the order to start fighting.

Xu Wen was a little nervous. It was the first time in his two lives that he was so close to a war, or to be more exact, he was right in the middle of a war.

As a translator, she certainly couldn't hide behind others. She stood on the edge of the cliff with a loudspeaker and shouted to the Kaya.

Xu Wen is afraid of heights and usually wouldn't get so close to the edge of a cliff. His little face wrinkled into a frown.

Lu Yuanzheng knew that she was afraid, so he supported her with his hands behind her back.

To Custer who was watching from below, it seemed as if Lu Yuanzheng was forcing Xu Wen and trying to force her off the cliff by threatening her.

Custer shouted: "We warriors of Country F never use ladies as shields."

Xu asked: "..."

Seeing that Xu Wen was slow to speak, Lu Yuanzheng asked her, "What did he say?"

Xu Wen pursed his lips, hesitating whether to speak.

There was an officer next to Lu Yuanzheng who had just graduated from military school. Although his English was not as good as the greeting, he could understand this sentence and took the initiative to translate: "He said we are not masters and use women as shields."

Lu Yuanzheng: "..."

Xu Wen was afraid that Lu Yuanzheng would ask her to translate something embarrassing again, so she spoke up: "Why do you want to attack Rainbow Island? Don't you want to live in peace? Is this your own decision or your country's intention? Do you know what the consequences of doing this are?"

Custer was surprised. "What? Aren't you going to attack us?"

Xu asked: "..."

There was no need for Lu Zheng to give orders. Xu Wen asked himself and found out the whole story.

It turned out that Custer and his men thought that there was such a big commotion on the island, with the noise and bustle just like warriors marching before going to battle.

He thought that Rainbow Island was going to send troops to attack them.

What is not mentioned is that although Custer and his team refused to admit that they were the ones who installed the sound system, they actually did it.

Moreover, all the equipment that had just been deployed for a few days was taken away by Lu Yuanzheng's men, leaving only a few sets of equipment, which was quite a blow to them.

They themselves know that this is called telling lies with their eyes open.

I was always afraid that the officers and soldiers on Rainbow Island would get really angry and start a fight with them.

How could I not panic after hearing such a big commotion?

Xu Wen explained the meaning of National Day, saying that it was a celebration of his own country and he had no intention of attacking them.

After hearing Xu Wen's translation, people on both sides were at a loss whether to laugh or cry.

The long journey is somewhat disappointing. Personally, I really want the two sides to fight each other.

This way he could take the opportunity to beat up Custer.

But it was only a fleeting thought, and he would never do such a thing that would harm the country and the people.

So they regrouped and brought the band back to continue the unfinished performance.

After all the trouble, the atmosphere has dissipated a lot.

Xu Wen was a little tired, but he insisted on staying until Dongsheng's performance was over and then took him home.

Just like previous National Days, officers and soldiers took turns to rest.

The difference from last year is that last year there was only one boat that went to Zhongxing Island at a fixed time and location for everyone to visit.

This year, there is an additional Pengcheng for everyone to choose from.

Most of the soldiers who went out were married and brought their families with them.

A small number of singles go out to buy daily necessities.

Only a few young girls who had just arrived on the island chose to go out. They did not go out alone, but went with other single warriors.

Such progress made the lucky man's comrades jealous and also really surprised Xu Wen.

How many days have the girls been on the island?

This speed reminded Xu Wen of the military training at the beginning of the school year in his previous life. The half-month military training would usually produce several couples.

Lu Yuanzheng said it was not surprising that the young man found a partner. He was diligent, sociable and sweet-talking, the type that girls liked. If the conditions on the island were not like this, he would have been married long ago.

Xu asked: "..."

During the National Day holiday, Xu Wen had very little time to go out.

The ship's designer has arrived.

It was not the young designer Xu Wen and the others thought, but an old designer with gray hair but very energetic.

This designer has a name that fits his profession very well: Ma Liang.

It easily reminds people of the boy and his magic pen in the fairy tale.

Ma Liang also brought a student named Deng Kai.

What’s interesting is the attitude of the two people when they first arrived on the island.

Ma Liang was smiling and approachable, and took the initiative to talk to Xu Wen. Deng Kai, however, was a bit like Tan Changlin when he first arrived on the island, a little arrogant.

How could Xu Wen feel comfortable running around when such an elderly designer came to the island in person to paint for him?

I stayed on the island and accompanied the old designer to draw pictures.

As for Deng Kai, his job is more about taking care of the old designer and serving as his assistant.

Dongsheng had nothing to do, so he would often come over and watch.

He is only five and a half years old. He can't sit still very much and often runs outside.

It is said that every profession has its own specialties, and we must admit that an expert is an expert.

As long as Xu Wen describes the specific appearance, the experienced designer will know what the part is and what it is used for.

The old designer drew a sketch, and only a few strokes made a picture. In Xu Wen's opinion, his drawing was not as good as his own.

But the actual situation is like a doctor's instruction manual. Although it is incomprehensible to outsiders, nurses and pharmacists can understand what the doctor writes and how to use the medicine at a glance.

Deng Kai was like a nurse or someone in a pharmacy, and he could tell at a glance what Ma Liang was painting.

After Ma Liang drew the sketch, Deng Kai re-drew it.

He painted very seriously, and his drawings looked a bit like the drawings Xu Wen had seen in his previous life.

Whether it is a plan or a facade, each part is marked with a serial number and name.

The drawings he re-drew were the actual ones that could be used for shipbuilding in the future.

This old designer seemed to be particularly famous in their unit, so much so that Lian Zhenxing came all the way from Haicheng to see him.

Song Xueqin also accompanied him, and he had to accompany him on the long expedition.

Dongsheng was happy. Dongsheng had a good relationship with Lian Zhenxing. He called him Uncle Lian and followed Lian Zhenxing around.

In addition to Xu Wen's group, there was another group that did not take a holiday, namely the officers and soldiers who printed the walls, as well as Tan Changlin and Luo Zemin.

They were divided into several groups and took turns on duty.

Walls were successfully built in the square.

Lian Zhenxing, Song Xueqin and Ma Liang have all visited the museum.

Tan Changlin also seemed to know Ma Liang, or to have heard of him, and was very respectful to him.

This still made Xu Wen feel quite strange.

After hearing that this was also the result of Xu Wen's research, Ma Liang expressed his admiration for Xu Wen directly, "Young people are formidable! Comrade Xu Wen, you will definitely achieve great things in the future!"

Song Xueqin immediately took over the conversation and asked Xu Wen.

He had met Xu Wen quite a few times and was relatively familiar with him.

Lian Zhenxing was relatively unfamiliar with Xu Wen. Listening to Song Xueqin's endless chatter, he sneered in dissatisfaction, "Look at your smug look! Someone who doesn't know would think Comrade Xu Wen is your daughter!"

"She is not my daughter but my daughter-in-law!" Song Xueqin looked proud.

"She's still my daughter-in-law!"

Lu Yuanzheng: "..."

Has anyone ever asked him if he wanted to be a son?

Although he had no room to refuse.

They are not old enough to act like children, yet they are so childish.

Tan Changlin, who was standing to the side and yawning from sleepiness, turned his head and asked Xu Wen: "Was I as stupid as this guy when I first arrived on the island?"

Xu Wen exclaimed, followed his gaze and saw Deng Kai.

She tilted her head and thought for a moment, then nodded, "I'm smarter than you."

Tan Changlin was so arrogant that he bowed his head only when Xu Wen got angry. And within three days, Deng Kai's attitude towards Xu Wen was basically the same as his attitude towards his teacher Ma Liang.

Tan Changlin: “…”

Xu Wen added: "I didn't expect you to have such a clear understanding of yourself. You are indeed quite stupid."

Tan Changlin: “…”

He took a deep breath and said, "Now I feel a little sympathetic towards those women who said bad things about you."

It took Xu Wen a moment to realize that he was talking about those sisters-in-law who scolded her.

Following the principle of asking when you don't understand, Xu Wen humbly asked, "Why?"

"They will end up worse than me."

Xu asked: "..."

Is this a compliment or an insult to her?

In the midst of the busy work, half of the wall was printed and the sound-reflecting devices were also installed.

Although the Luyuan Expedition's unit did not have such advanced equipment, they were very smart. They modified the sound signals received from the seabed. They were not used by them, but they were definitely not used by the Kaya either. Moreover, they released sound waves different from the original ones, which were particularly likely to interfere with the receiving equipment on the Kaya.

All the large movable machines on Rainbow Island, such as cranes, extra-long trucks, and even armor were deployed as transport vehicles, working together to move the printed walls into 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 is put on the transport ship, the crane arm cannot reach the seabed.

The material and weight of these walls meant they were destined to sink to the bottom of the ocean.

The soldiers and frogmen on the ship had to use their own strength to prevent the walls from falling down, and they had to pull them to the appropriate position and then secure them.

Just by imagining it, you can tell that this is a dangerous and laborious project.

After being fixed, the chains were not removed but nailed directly to the seabed to prevent them from falling towards the Kaya.

At first, the people on the Kaya didn't know what they were doing, and Custer stood on the deck watching the excitement.

Two days later he couldn't laugh anymore.

He was not a fool, he knew very well what the wall was used for, and he knew even more clearly what the material on the wall was made of and what the sound cameras installed on it were used for.

From that day on, Custer never went on deck again.

A week later, Kaya became a "frog" sitting in a well and looking at the world from afar.

The Kaya was surrounded by walls on all four sides, and one could not see the outside world unless one climbed to the top of the railing.

All they could see was a small patch of sky above the Kaya.

Tan Changlin and Luo Zemin retired after their mission and left the island first.

When they left, Xu Wen was the one who saw them off.

Luo Zemin was fine. He and Xu Wen were partners and met each other often. He was even quite excited and couldn't wait to leave the island and return to Pengcheng to show his skills.

Tan Changlin, on the contrary, looked particularly reluctant to leave.

Xu Wen teased him: "If you are so reluctant to leave, why don't you stay?"

Who knew that Tan Changlin actually thought about it seriously for a while before shaking his head and saying, "Not now! My colleague said that the project has not been completed yet. I have to go back and finish my project before coming back."

Xu Wen took this as a rejection and did not try to persuade him further.

After receiving the news from Kaya, Country F will inevitably protest.

Unfortunately, protests are useless.

If you don't want to, then drive the Kaya away!

Can’t drive away?

If you can't drive away, you can park it at our house. I'm kind enough to build a shed for your boat. If you have any objections, then you are ungrateful or have ulterior motives.

Besides, do you need permission to build a shed at home? First, you don't occupy other people's land, and second, you don't affect your neighbors' behavior.

Let's tear it down?

On what basis?

Do you have any improper desires for our territory?

Or do you have some other agenda for parking your battleships here?

Then we need to talk about it in detail.

Can country f recognize it? Of course not.

But in this way, no matter what the purpose of the Kaya was, it would be impossible to implement its original plan without its eyes and ears.

Their shouts were of no use, and their men could no longer sneak out from the bottom of the sea.

The Kaya and the officers and soldiers on board looked like they were in prison.

This time, the maintenance engineers of the Kaya finally bought the "scarce parts" and they were delivered to the Kaya soon after, indicating that the ship was repaired and ready to leave.

Lu Yuanzheng and his men removed a wall at the rear to allow the Kaya to leave.

At this point, the nail at the door of the house was finally pulled out.

The whole Rainbow Island cheered.

To celebrate this moment, a bonfire party was held on the island in the evening.

A light show to be exact.

It's not a good day to light a fire in such hot weather.

Xu Wen's pregnancy reaction was also coming to an end, and her belly was slowly bulging out, but she no longer liked strange tastes and no longer had dry belching in the morning and evening.

The fourth to sixth months of pregnancy are said to be the most comfortable time of pregnancy.

Basically, it does not affect normal life.

Things like parties are okay to attend.

Still the familiar buffet and barbecue.

Xu Wen's female students also came to participate.

Now, each of them regards Xu Wen as a role model and admires him very much.

At first, they felt cheated because Xu Wen didn't really teach what was taught in class. Apart from teaching them to study on their own, he didn't really teach them much.

Half a month later, Xu Wen sent out another test paper. Although the test paper was not the same as the last time, the question types were similar.

After Song Baoying and the others helped to read the papers, Xu Wen distributed both papers to everyone.

In the first examination, only a few people could score above 80 points, and less than half of the people passed.

The second time, one-third of the candidates scored above 80 points, and two-thirds passed.

This is mainly because everyone receives different education and has different cultural levels in their respective locations.

The difficulty of the two sets is similar, and the second set is even slightly more difficult than the first.

The contrast between the two results is so obvious that everyone cannot help but be convinced.

After seeing that everyone had basically mastered the skills of self-study, Xu Wen began to teach content related to the college entrance examination.

Not to mention that Xu Wen has the magic mirror as a cheating tool, even if he doesn't have it, just based on Xu Wen's real cultural level, teaching high school students of this era would be a piece of cake.

Many future learning experiences and methods are really valuable now.

Besides, the college entrance examination in a few decades will not be as difficult as the current one.

If Xu Wen is determined, he can start his own business and open a tutoring school.

After all, individual economy is becoming more and more free.

When it comes to starting a business, Luo Zemin is an expert!

He not only has technical skills but also has a great business sense.
