When talking about the robbers, Jiang Zhunsheng sighed quietly and said: This matter started more than a month ago. In fact, Wei Luo and I didn't know much about the whole process, we just heard other people talk about it.
How come you are the chief and deputy general manager of the shipyard? Zhan Chenqi said.
Well, the robbery happened at night, and the two of us happened not to be in the shipyard. The reason is that that day we completed the activation key of the Tongtian Shenzhou. Everyone was very happy at that time, and Weiluo invited me to have a drink.
Celebrated. So at that time, we entrusted all the affairs of the entire shipyard to the supervisor, the Xu Xiao you just met.
Wait, what is the activation key of the Sky-Bearing Divine Boat? It sounds very important. Zhan Chen asked casually.
The key to the Shenzhou that reaches the sky is actually the rudder in the Shenzhou operation room. Although it is just a rudder, its connection with the control system in the ship's control room contains an extremely exquisite design, just like a rudder.
The key is the same. Without this rudder, the entire Tongtian Shenzhou cannot be started. It took Weiluo and I more than a year to build it.
Well, I really want to see where such an important thing is now. Zhan Chen couldn't help but say.
Just at this moment, a sound came from nearby, attracting everyone's attention. Zhan Chen followed the sound and found that it was Xu Xiao who accidentally dropped a part to the ground, making a noise.
Xu Xiao, you are an old man in the shipyard, no matter what you do, Wei Luo immediately scolded Wei Luo for being so impatient in doing things.
Sorry, I accidentally let go. Xu Li said hurriedly.
Be careful next time
OK.
Zhan Chen didn't say anything. He looked at Xu Xiao and narrowed his eyes slightly, because he clearly saw Xu Xiao's panic expression when he talked about the rudder. There must be something fishy in it.
However, he smiled calmly and said: I don't think this is anything, Mr. Wei, you don't need to make a fuss. After a pause, he pretended to be curious and said: Now I just want to see the legendary rudder in the end.
What does it look like?
Jiang Zhunsheng smiled and said: Haha, it's not easy to deal with Weiluo. Let's take the manager over to have a look.
Haha, okay, Wei Luo readily agreed, and then led the two of them out of the Tongtian Shenzhou and into a tightly guarded secret room. There were four guards at the door of the small secret room. When opening the door, they had to
A special token is used, and only Jiang Zhunshen, Weiluo and Xu Xiao are equipped with this token.
When the door of the secret room opened, Zhan Chen saw a translucent, ivory-like rudder lying quietly on a high platform in the center of the secret room. A trace of doubt flashed in his eyes, and he thought: Could it be that I am too worried?
?
However, he still didn't give up and said to Jiang Zhunsheng and Wei Luo beside him: "Can I take a closer look at it?"
Wei Luo smiled and said: Of course, you are the biggest here.
Jiang Zhunsheng couldn't help but smile after hearing this.
So, Zhan Chen walked forward, picked up the rudder and inspected it carefully. It turned out to be fine and ingenious in workmanship. At the end of the support pole behind the rudder, there were many gear-like designs, which were indeed like a key to open the door.
.
After looking at it for a long time, Zhan Chen didn't see what was going on, so he had to put the rudder back and said, "Well, this rudder is really exquisitely made, and I am amazed. Mr. Jiang and Wei, you two"
His skills are indeed superb.
Haha, the manager, Miuzan, is really embarrassing the two of us. Jiang Zhunshen and Wei Luo said in succession.
After exiting the secret room, the guard immediately closed the door. Zhan Chen asked Jiang Zhuansheng again: I have something unclear. Why is the rudder of the ship so tightly guarded?
Jiang Zhunsheng said solemnly: Because this key is extraordinary, it takes a year to make, and it is the key to launching the Heavenly Ship. It is almost impossible to copy, so it must be properly preserved and carefully guarded. It will be about another month.
In time, the Tongtian Shenzhou will be completely completed, and we will hold the maiden voyage ceremony. At that time, we will test this key. If it is a complete success, we can deliver it to Mr. Ning for acceptance. Only in this way can we be considered thorough.
Liberated.
Zhan Chen nodded and said: So that's it, then we have to stand our guard well in the last month and don't let anything happen again.
Oh, isn't it? That incident happened last month, and many people died. Afterwards, Mr. Ning was furious and personally punished the person involved. Unfortunately, the former manager, who was also my good friend, got into trouble because of a momentary oversight, and ended up with his body and head missing.
, It’s really not worth it. Speaking of this, Jiang Zhunshen burst into tears, obviously he had a deep friendship with the original manager.
Zhan Chen was wary when he heard this, and secretly thought: It seems that I have to be careful. What happened in this dock last month was not as simple as it seemed on the surface. If something goes wrong again, I will probably have to step forward.
The former general manager has followed in his footsteps.
Thinking of this, Xu Xiao's frightened expression seemed to appear in front of his eyes again, and he thought: There must be something wrong with this Xu Xiao, so I will start investigating from him.
Thinking of this, Zhan Chen said: Mr. Jiang and Mr. Wei, I have troubled you to accompany me for so long.
No matter where, we are lucky to be able to work for the General Manager. From now on, the two of us will have to rely on the General Manager. They both replied.
You two go and get to work. I'll walk around the shipyard again to learn about the situation.
Jiang Zhunsheng and Wei Luo looked at each other and said: Then we will leave first.
As the chief and deputy supervisor of the shipyard, they do have a lot of things to deal with.
After separating from the two of them, Zhan Chen went straight to the Tongtian Shenzhou and saw Xu Xiao still directing the workers to be busy, so he walked towards him.
When Xu Xiao saw Zhan Chen coming back, his expression changed, but he immediately returned to normal. He forced a smile, walked over to him, and asked: Manager Zhan, what are your orders?
Zhan Chen looked around with great interest, and then said: Supervisor Xu, I don't have much to do, I'm just very curious about the Tongtian Shenzhou, so I want to come and see more.
Xu Xiao smiled and said: As long as everything is fine, I still have to go to work.
Wait, can you introduce to me the structure of this Shenzhou? I am interested in everything.
Haha, Mr. Steward, if you didn't tell me earlier, no problem, I know every detail on this ship.
Haha, that's great
So, Xu Xiao led Zhan Chen around the Shenzhou inside and out, explaining it while walking. Through his mouth, Zhan Chen learned a lot of information about the Shenzhou.
It turns out that the Tongtian Shenzhou is driven by three sets of power systems. The masts on the ship are equipped with sails, so that the Shenzhou can draw on the power of natural wind; and the propeller at the stern can allow the Shenzhou to gain huge boosting power in a short period of time. This
The system relies on a system installed in the hull of the ship
Power furnace, and starting this power furnace relies on a huge spiritual array embedded on the surface, which requires burning a large amount of yuan stones; in addition, operating such a large Shenzhou will of course also rely on manpower, which is on the hull
The rows of holes are used to facilitate the use of long pulp.
Only with these three things can the Tongtian Divine Boat gallop through the turbulent waves; swim on the surging rivers; swim in the cross-currents of monsters and beasts, ride the wind and waves, and reach the very center of the Yuan River.
After seeing this, Zhan Chen was eye-opening and full of praises. Of course, he did not forget his purpose. While Xu Xiao was in the middle of conversation, he suddenly asked: Supervisor Xu, I heard that our shipyard suffered a disaster last month.
You were in charge of the shipyard during the time of the robbery. Is there such a thing?
When Xu Xiao heard Zhan Chen's question, the smile on his face immediately disappeared, and he responded carefully: "Go back to the war manager, this is indeed the case."
Haha, can you tell me about the situation at that time? I just came here and don’t understand anything. In order to dispel his doubts, Zhan Chen tried his best to act casual, as if he asked about this matter inadvertently.
Xu Xiao observed what he said and saw that Zhan Chen didn't seem to suspect him. He felt a little relieved and said: Manager Zhan Chen, it's no wonder that you are concerned about this matter. It's a long story at this time, since our Ning family is here in Yuanhe.
Since the dock was set up on the shore, the surrounding bandits are afraid of the strength of our Ning family and dare not come easily. Everyone has always lived in peace and harmony.
Over time, we people here have developed the idea of sitting back and having nothing to worry about. We are usually unprepared, and the defense force in the dock has also plummeted from the original two hundred guards to one hundred people. At that time, the entire dock, including the general manager, Emperor Wu,
There are only ten powerful people in Dzogchen.
I expected that something would happen sooner or later if things continued like this, and sure enough, late at night on the 3rd of last month, a group of 100 robbers quietly broke into our dock. At that time, Director Jiang and Deputy Director Wei went out to drink. Only one person was left in the dock.
I was the one in charge of the work. I was fully engrossed in my work and didn't even have time to pay attention to what was happening outside.
Until that group of bandits broke in, they were killing and looting everywhere, and took away many of our unfinished parts. Finally, they started to set fire, turning the entire shipyard into a sea of flames. I led the people and fought to the death.
, only then did the group of villains be repelled, and the losses were not further expanded.
Zhan Chen praised: Brother Xu, you are still a person who has made great achievements.
Xu Xiao was stunned for a moment, then laughed awkwardly: People who have merit do not dare to take responsibility, I just do my duty.
So, did the shipyard suffer any losses? Were important things damaged or lost?
No, fortunately, the Tongtian Shenzhou was basically completed at that time. The unfinished parts were only small parts, so our losses were not big. Xu Xiao paused, then complimented Zhan Chen and said: "Manager Zhan, you are here now, we are here."
I have taken reassurance. I heard that your martial arts are excellent and you are also the top among the many powerful Dzogchen warriors. As long as you are here, I believe that the gang of thieves will not dare to attack.
Hahaha, Brother Xu, this is just a rumor, and I am only above average. If I want to keep the dock safe, I still need your help.
It was expected that it would be difficult to extract any useful information from him, so Zhan Chen had no choice but to accept it as soon as he was ready, and said to him: Okay, I feel a little embarrassed for disturbing Brother Xu for so long, so I will leave first.
Please walk slowly.
So, Zhan Chen got off the Tongtian Shenzhou and walked towards the outside of the shipyard. As he walked, he was thinking: How true or false are Xu Xiao's words? I am also in the dark now, but from what he just said
Judging from his words and expression, it is obvious that he is hiding something. No, I have to collect more facts and evidence to reveal the truth behind this whole thing.
Thinking of this, Zhan Chen couldn't help but speed up his pace. At this moment, a bad premonition suddenly arose in his heart, as if something else would happen.
