Daming pirates

A hardwood gate more than three inches thick slowly rose at this time. Their gate was different from the common two outward-opening or inward-opening gates of other village forts.

It is composed of a large door made of thick wood, and the way to open it is to lift it up and down using a winch and a pulley block.

The reason why the village gate adopts such a structure is because Yu Xiaotian accepted the lessons from Zhou Cheng's old lair. If Zhou Cheng's men had closed the door faster at that time, they would not have been able to successfully break through the village gate and rush directly into the East China Sea.

In the village, Zhou Cheng's lair in Dongshan Village was taken over with little effort.

Because of this, Yu Xiaotian thought about changing their village gate to an up-and-down opening method, and designed a winch for the village gate. When opening, four people pulled the winch and relied on a set of pulleys to open it.

Slowly lift the village door. Although it is a bit laborious, in case of emergency and the door needs to be closed, you only need to open the ratchet structure on the pulleys one by one, and the village door will fall down in an instant, blocking the enemy in the village.

Outside.

Village gates of this structure are sometimes used on city gates, but there are very few small villages like theirs that use village gates of this structure. However, the benefits are obvious. If anyone wants to rely on sneak attacks in the future,

To invade their village, the village gate alone was enough to buy them enough time.

If this kind of thing were to be made by ordinary people, it would probably be very difficult. Even if the craftsmen mastered the technology in this area, they would keep it secret and would not show it to others easily. But for Xiaotian, designing a set like this

The machine is not difficult at all. A winch and a few fixed pulleys and movable pulleys can easily solve these problems, and it is very smooth after the trial. This makes everyone admire Xiaotian's ability again.

They were so impressed that even the blacksmith Zhang was in awe of the mechanism designed by Xiaotian and even praised it as a good one.

This was the time when they successfully tested the village gate. After the village gate was lifted easily by the four young men, Li Gouzi immediately asked people to light firecrackers as a celebration ceremony.

With the successful installation of the village gate, the main peripheral defense project of Treasure Island Water Village has been completed, which means that for a period of time in the future, they will no longer have to worry too much about the security of their lair, as long as they do not encounter a large-scale

attack, their stronghold can easily withstand the attack of dozens or even hundreds of people, and will not fall easily again.

Yu Xiaotian looked at the village he had built with his own hands, and was in a good mood. He calculated the time and found that there were only more than ten days left before the Spring Festival, so he ordered that everyone here be given another set of thick

New clothes.

Although they are located on the coast of Fujian, after entering winter, the temperature at sea has still dropped to a very low level. It turns out that the single clothes on everyone's body are no longer enough to resist the cold wind, but some time ago they were busy building the village, and everyone was busy building the village every day.

If you have to do strenuous physical labor, you can still get by.

But now that the Spring Festival is approaching, the temperature is getting lower and lower, and people are gradually becoming unable to stand it any longer. If they stop for a moment, they will shiver with cold.

So Yu Xiaotian ordered Li Gouzi to solve the problem of keeping everyone warm from the cold more than a month ago. Now there are seven or eight more women on the island, plus Lan'er and other original women, now there are already seven or eight more women on the island.

With more than a dozen women, Yu Xiaotian did not use them for such strenuous work as building a stronghold, and only asked them to take care of cooking, laundry and other chores. So all the women began to devote themselves to sewing for the people on the island a month ago.

The work of making winter clothes has begun.

In addition, Yu Xiaotian specially allocated money to purchase some cotton and cotton cloth from the Li family and provided them with sewing thin cotton clothes for the people on the island.

After more than a month of rush work, the first batch of thin cotton-padded clothes was finally handed over to Li Gouzi. In Li Gouzi's opinion, it was just a matter of handing out these clothes, but Yu Xiaotian didn't think so. Although these clothes

The clothes are simple in style, rough in workmanship, and the fabric is average, but the relatively strong cotton makes them look shapeless at all.

But in Yu Xiaotian's opinion, these clothes are valuable because they are uniform in style and color. After all, they represent the symbol of their sea wolf. No matter how vulgar they are, they cannot be given out easily. What he wants is for everyone to pay attention to these clothes.

After putting on this suit, I felt a sense of belonging to the sea wolves in my heart.

So he told Li Gouzi not to rush to distribute the money, but to wait until the village gate is completed to distribute it uniformly.

Following Yu Xiaotian's order, Liu Laoliu immediately blew the bamboo whistle. After the tribesmen scattered throughout the village heard the sharp bamboo whistle, they were all shaken out of habit and immediately moved toward

He ran towards the direction of the village gate where the bamboo whistle sounded.

Nowadays, under the training outline formulated by Yu Xiaotian, everyone has gradually formed a sense of execution of orders, and understands what orders and prohibitions are. As soon as they hear the bamboo whistle, they immediately form a conditioned reflex, and immediately

Start automatic assembly.

In addition, Yu Xiaotian promoted six people including Heitou, Han Xian, Luo Xianbin, and Li Dazui to boatswain and captain. He organized the three waves of tribes and handed them over to these guys, forming a junior officer system.

As a basic manager, I will help Yu Xiaotian manage these tribes.

In the past, when they only had about twenty people, Yu Xiaotian could still manage them by himself, but now the number of his subordinates has increased to more than seventy people. If he is allowed to manage these people in every detail, Yu Xiaotian will not be able to manage them.

The sky is already somewhat overwhelmed, so establishing a primary management system has become a must.

And Heitou and others were very happy after being promoted to boatswain and captain. Even though this was just a small official like a sesame mung bean, for those of them who were just ordinary people before, they still felt very proud.

He is full of energy, and according to Yu Xiaotian's requirements, he strictly manages his subordinates, which makes Yu Xiaotian worry a lot.

In fact, no matter what line of work they are in, including their current work as pirates, it is actually similar to starting a company. It is a question of how to effectively manage and operate it. As long as this matter is solved, many things will fall into place, and it will not cost too much in the future.

energy.

But this kind of thing is not a simple matter for ordinary people. The reason why military generals are hereditary is that it is difficult for ordinary people to get ahead. The most important thing is that those generals from a family have mastered the skills of controlling troops.

, and it has always been kept secret, and it is difficult for ordinary people to learn what it contains.

Although most of the pirate leaders are strong men, few of them systematically master how to control their subordinates and effectively allocate operational skills. The management of many pirate groups is very chaotic and it is difficult to develop and grow. This is also the reason why sea pirates

There are as many as crucian carp crossing the river, but very few of them actually become big.

Yu Xiaotian has a natural advantage in this aspect. Even though he did not study management in the old time and space, he was more or less exposed to many things related to this aspect. After entering the society, he mingled in all walks of life.

, it also allowed him to accumulate a certain amount of management experience and learn some useful things. In addition, in the old time and space where he lived, information was highly open. Even the most ordinary people could not accept the amount of information they casually accepted.

It is hundreds and thousands of times more than the era he lives in now.

Yu Xiaotian is not a fool, and his vision is naturally much broader than that of many people of this era, especially in general studies. Even compared with the scholars of this era, he can be called a great master.

Therefore, managing such a team and making it operate effectively is not a problem at all for him. He can just think of ways to deal with these people.

Yu Xiaotian put his hands behind his back and watched the tribesmen rushing from all over the place. Under the loud orders of Heitou and others, they lined up nervously in a horizontal line in front of him, silently counting the time. When the last person entered

After forming the team and standing up straight, Blackhead and other soldiers began to report the numbers loudly, reporting to Yu Xiaotian the expected and actual number of personnel in their charge.

Yu Xiaotian waited quietly for them to finish counting, feeling quite proud in his heart.

A few months ago, everyone here had a poor background. They didn't even know what standing in line was, and everything they did was chaotic. After several months of training, there are now some soldiers.

In his appearance, those who were trained by him began to obey the rules and became more respectable. Compared with other peers, this kind of discipline was enough to make them look down on themselves and even try to catch up.

Therefore, Yu Xiaotian feels that this is an achievement for him. Through his efforts, he believes that one day he can completely shape these people into the team he wants and become a team that can follow him across the sea.

The power of.

After listening to the reports from all the soldiers, Yu Xiaotian loudly replied: "Everyone is here! Take a break!"

Upon hearing the command, dozens of subordinates immediately put their hands behind their backs and stood with their feet apart, but their chests were still high, their waists were slightly relaxed, and their chins were slightly raised. They looked proud.

It feels quite majestic, but what's a little funny is that most of the people in this group have bald heads, and there are some guys with hair in buns mixed in, which looks a bit nondescript.

Yu Xiaotian slowly took two steps forward and glanced around the subordinates. He was a little dissatisfied with the situation and secretly thought to himself, if these people all shaved their heads, they would probably look different.

It's better looking, but Xiao Huangdao is the first one to follow him out right now.

Those guys are not interested in shaving their hair. They think that keeping their hair symbolizes a status for them, representing their seniority as sea wolves. In addition, they have deep-rooted physical and skin problems.

Bound by their parents' ideas, they are determined not to shave their hair.

Therefore, Yu Xiaotian was quite helpless about this, and could only temporarily let them continue to grow their hair as a reward, allowing them to enjoy the sense of superiority of seniority.

(I’m dizzy. Today’s hit list has dropped so much that I can’t find this book! After checking, it’s not even higher than the old book “Burial of the Ming”. I’m so depressed! But I still have to thank my brothers for their support. It’s still at number 8 on the red ticket list.

Name, and special thanks to the brothers from Wandering Jiangnan for the reward! I hope the brothers will continue to support me!)
