September 30, 1908, Guangzhou City, Guest House of the Third Division of the People's Liberation Army.
It was still hot in Guangzhou at the end of September, but it was cool inside the guest house because it was equipped with central air conditioning.
This guest house was originally the house of a certain big comprador.
This comprador was a descendant of the Thirteenth Party.
This house was mainly used by him to receive foreign guests.
The entire building was completely decorated in the Victorian style and was beautifully decorated.
Royal, the ultimate luxury.
After the liberation of Guangzhou, the comprador was liquidated by the new government and prosecuted on more than 20 charges including treason, crimes against humanity, murder, human trafficking, gang organization, drug trafficking, and fraud.
After a public trial, he was sentenced to death, deprived of human rights for life, and all his family property confiscated.
After the house was confiscated, it was assigned to the Third Division stationed in Guangzhou.
It was originally intended to be the headquarters office space, but the division commander, Comrade Zhuang Jiaxiong, thought it was too noisy because it was close to the port business district, so he didn't want it.
In addition, a house was selected as the division headquarters in a relatively secluded area.
Anyway, there were so many mansions and villas confiscated this time that the government and the army could not use them all.
So this place was converted into a guest house by the Third Division.
Although the name is "guest house", the environment and decoration here, even if placed 100 years later, will be enough to make many five-star hotels kneel down, but there will be no future generations.
Those advanced equipment, oh, and there is a lack of beautiful girls engaged in special industries and special services.
However, after this guest house was put into use, there were not many people living in it, even fewer than the number of business staff.
It was deserted all day long.
Because this place is not open to the public, and those who are not within the military or have business relations with the military, please go out and turn left for 200 meters.
There is a hotel there that is open to the public.
It wasn't until ten days ago that a large number of people moved in, which finally made this luxurious guest house somewhat popular.
Yes, these guests are the turtles and overseas Chinese who played pirates.
The Third Division is currently placing them all in the guest house, letting them have a good rest while waiting for the arrangements from above.
"I can't believe that our country's technology has become so advanced.
Even the hotels in France don't have this kind of air conditioning device."
"Well, it's the same in the UK.
Only some factories there have air conditioning units, but they mainly regulate humidity.
The effect of regulating temperature is very poor.
There really isn't anything as good as this.
And that thing is huge.
I've seen it before, maybe It is half the size of this hall, and it needs to be built in the basement.
It also needs a salt water pool.
How can it be as advanced as this air conditioner?
The main unit is only half a bedroom, and there is no need for a pool."
"It is already available in the U.S. market this year, but it is also made in China."
A group of young people were having a heated discussion in front of the air conditioner in the hall, and they were all very happy about China's scientific and technological achievements.
After talking for a while, their topic shifted to the bonus of this "pirate operation".
This time, the Science and Socialist Party government gave them bonuses based on the standards for combatants, which was 17.564 million yuan, divided among 256 people.
This group of young people were very touched by this move.
They originally thought that a bonus of tens of thousands would be pretty good.
You know, the estimated value of the items they snatched back was 87.82 million yuan, which was truly estimated based on the market price.
Many of the things in that batch were gems, jade, calligraphy, paintings, antiques and the like.
These things were difficult to sell.
If it wasn't sold by an expert, it would be good to get one-tenth of the price.
This is still a serious business transaction.

If the stolen goods are sold on the underworld, the discount will be even lower.
If it were true pirates who got these items, I would be thankful if they could sell them for five to six million yuan.
Even if the real money is easier to sell, few people can eat such a large amount, and there are great risks.
Who knew that the Socialist Party of Science and Technology would be so honest, give the valuation without any discount, and then distribute the bonuses without any discount, and also let them choose by themselves, and they can freely choose loot and cash.
As long as the value is the same, the two can be combined freely.
In addition to choosing some jewelry as souvenirs, the young people chose cash checks for most of their bonuses.
After all, cash is much more convenient to use.
Although most of these young people are from wealthy families, they are still very excited to have "earned" so much money on their own.
"Our government is really willing to give us more than 17 million yuan."
"Tch, don't think about who Chairman Wen is.
How could he take advantage of such an old man?
This is the true demeanor of a man.
It's like the Qing Dynasty's wretched and untrustworthy style.
No wonder it collapsed."
"A saint is born every 500 years.
China has been unlucky for hundreds of years, so it's time for a saint to appear."
"Don't talk nonsense.
Chairman Moon has emphasized many times in Materialistic China and other speeches that the monarchy has come to an end and China must be a republic in the future.
He will not be the emperor."
"This is something we all know.
This saint does not necessarily have to be an emperor.
Isn't it the same with presidents like the United States and France?
As long as he is the leader of our country, that's fine."
Like their contemporaries in later generations, everyone got sidetracked without even saying a few words about bonuses.
After chatting for a while, he brought the topic back.
"Well, how do you plan to use the bonus this time?"
Because the bonus this time was so large, these young people discussed it for several days before coming up with a distribution plan that imitated the ancient pirates' loot distribution method.
They were distributed according to their performance, investment and tasks in this operation.
The one with the most was Li Ang, who received 10 of the total, because he was both the initiator and the organizational commander.
He even had a ship, so he got the most. , no one has an opinion.
In the next allocation, Li Ang showed considerable talent.
Under his auspices, he calculated everyone's contribution very accurately and publicly explained the reasons during the allocation.
In the end, all 255 people were convinced.
Well, this is not only because he is very talented in data and calculations, but also because of his family background.
The Li family has been the leader of maritime merchants and pirates for generations, and it is not for nothing.
If the boss divides the spoils randomly, he is a typical "hairball" and is destined not to last long.
Among them, the ones who got the most points besides Li Ang were those who got out of the ship or performed best.
They all got 5 points.
The few people who got the smallest share also received more than 30,000 yuan.
These few people basically came to make up the numbers and did nothing.
Their only contribution was probably a few screams.
Well, considering that they are all girls, they can't ask for too much.
It's good to be able to participate in this kind of collective action and show their faces.
That's right, 28 of these people are girls, and of course there are still some outstanding performers among them.
For example, there was a female man named Dai Tianjiao who directly participated in the operation of joining a gang to hijack a ship and killed a Japanese crew member.

This time the bonus was divided into 3.5, and no one objected.
According to Li Ang's suggestion, they used 80% of their bonuses to invest in the shipyard, and the remaining 20% was spent on themselves.
According to Li Ang, the Socialist Party of Science and Technology will definitely develop navigation on a large scale in the future.
Whether it is a warship or a merchant ship, it will definitely have a bright future.
When the profits are made, everyone will share them according to the shares.
Wouldn't it be better to make money with money than to sit back and have nothing?
Moreover, it is easy to explain to my family, and it also supports the country’s industrialization process.
Isn’t it wonderful to achieve multiple benefits with one stone?
Everyone was convinced and enthusiastically contributed money.
However, this time Li Ang just came up with an idea and took half of the bonus as shares.
He stopped presiding over the matter.
Instead, he asked everyone to recommend a few colleagues who studied business management and finance to take charge of this matter. thing.
He said that he will join the army in the future and will not have the time to participate in the actual operation of the company and will only pay dividends.
On the one hand, there is no energy for this, and on the other hand, military regulations do not allow it.
Now this group of people are discussing how to use the money at their disposal.
Even if they only spend 20% of it, it is still a big number, especially the money they "earned", which is more expensive than spending family money before. joy.
Anyway, there are all kinds of weird ideas, so I won’t go into details.
When everyone was discussing in a lively manner, they suddenly discovered that Comrade Li Ang, the organizer this time, was sitting silently next to him.
"Brother Kaicheng, what's wrong with you?
Why don't you speak?"
Mark leaned over and asked.
Li Ang sighed and replied: "Oh, everyone of you has been accounted for.
I am the only one who has not received the notice."
After they submitted their volunteer applications, resumes, academic certificates and other personal information to the Third Division, they received a response quickly.
Most of this group of people received interview notices one after another, and soon the relevant departments came to pick them up.
As of today, only Li Ang and a few others have not received the interview notice.
"It's only been a few days.
If the Qing court wants to wait for notification from the Ministry of Officials, it will take at least half a year.
Why are you in a hurry?"
The female man named Dai Tianjiao came over and said.
If you only look at the face, this girl with a loli face is definitely a childlike beauty, but if you look at her body, you are destined to be disappointed.
Her strong muscles can make countless men burst into tears.
"Oh, Classmate Dai, have you received the notice?"
Li Ang asked smoothly.
Dai Tianjiao said happily: "Oh, I received it.
I just received it this morning.
I will go to the flight academy in Neijiang to register in a few days."
"You want to be a pilot?"
Everyone stopped discussing and looked at him like a prehistoric creature.
Dai Tianjiao was enraged by the look and said angrily: "What do you mean by your looks, women can't be pilots?
Chairman Wen has said that men and women are equal."
A man with gentle eyes stood up and said: "Classmate Dai, you just don't understand what Chairman Wen means.
When Chairman Wen talks about equality between men and women, he means that men and women are equal in personality and law and should enjoy the same political rights."
"We are not equal in everything.
Some things are only suitable for certain genders.

For example, we men can't give birth."
"Hahahaha" all the men present laughed.
Dai Tianjiao was about to retort when a voice interrupted her.
"Li Ang, who is Li Ang?"
Several officers walked into the guest house lobby, and one of them, a captain, asked.
The military uniforms they are wearing are different from the green or camouflage military uniforms commonly worn by the officers and soldiers of the Third Division recently, but are white military uniforms.
This familiar color immediately made Li Ang energetic.
"I, I am Li Ang, I am" Li Ang jumped up from the sofa.
The leading captain took out a document and said: "Comrade Li Ang, your application for joining the army has been approved.
Please prepare.
Come with us to the Navy Headquarters the day after tomorrow morning.
You can arrange your own affairs during the two days for the interview.
The day after tomorrow morning At 8 o'clock, we will pick you up":
