After crossing the place where I lived, there were walls and doors made of thick branches in front of the big stone, and they knocked under the stone, which was extremely solid.

In the corner beside the door wall, there were also some leather bags and suitcases, as well as manuscript pages scattered outside, and some unknown instrument shovels and picks thrown randomly among them.

The wall of the door was where more than a dozen people were imprisoned outside. As soon as I leaned in, a smell hit the sky cover, and the smell of shit and urine was mixed with a strange smell.

More than a dozen people were tied up and guarded before, so the other party put a box on a large size and directly solved the cracks of the rocks. They didn't have to think about eating, so they gave some dirty water to save their lives every day. A few of them were weaker, and they were carried out just now.

Among those people, two people were said to have been killed for resistance. The corpses were placed here. After a few days, they became smelly. The strange smell was that the corpse smell was mixed with, but the corpse had been removed to find a place to be placed.

Xu Zhiyu found an oil lamp from outside to light the lighting. Lin Mo slowed down his breath and went in with him. He had to bend over inside. With the dim flame, Lin Mo checked very carefully.

The other side of the stone was buried. Seeing the traces, these people did not sit and wait for death. They had already opened the part. Unfortunately, there was a big stone inside that was stuck very dead, so it was impossible for these people to move.

After coming out, he checked it carefully. Lin Mo felt that the ammunition was a little low, but he also found out the situation after asking.

The other party put a large amount of ammunition on the carrying bag and had been transferred to the top of the gang to hide. These were probably abandoned and left behind in order to reduce the burden.

Du Qihong came over and reported the situation of the other party's voluntary instructions.

From being discovered to being taken away, these people always said nothing. Until Du Qihong took the initiative to show his identity when he was comforting him, and when he saw the bodies that were shot dead during the fire exchange, these people revealed the situation.

To Lin Mo and others' expectations, they found out that the prospecting team entering the mountain had encountered this group of people nearby and were controlled and detained.

"Is there anything that can confirm their identity or conduct a prospecting activity related to the orders?"

Du Qihong shook his head and said, "They were searched by the other party, but some of them said they saw prospecting equipment and luggage piled underneath.

It is confirmed to the relevant departments that their identities and activities have not yet been carried out, but looking at their miserable appearance, they cannot be pretended, so they should not be wrong."

Lin Mo nodded slightly, without commenting, and immediately arranged for someone to go down to clean up and take stock of the luggage, instruments and other items they brought.

Du Qihong did not say much and continued to tell other situations that the other party took the initiative to explain. After hearing this, Lin Mo realized that the other party should have some indirect relationship with him.

Perhaps it was the recent series of cases where Japanese spies were cracked, which made the above intuitively feel the ambition and planning of the Japanese invading China, and began to make some corresponding responses and measures.

This exploration team was instructed by the Central Geological Survey Institute to coordinate with relevant departments and experts to explore and summarize large-scale mineral transportation in the Yangtze River main and tributary basins.

It mainly targets the middle and upper regions of the Yangtze River and the lower reaches, and is biased towards the rear, but due to various local realities, it has not been fully launched yet.

Focusing on the rear and rear areas is obviously aimed at the possible battlefield of aggression, which is one of the reasons why Lin defaults to having some indirect relationship with him.

This prospecting team is a prospecting team formed in advance. It is led by an expert in mining, with more than a dozen central and local departments to explore, mineral research students and guards. It will carry out preliminary investigations first and carry out preliminary work for more in-depth and meticulous prospecting work.

Coming here to explore is a temporary task received by the prospecting team, which can explore the distribution, quality and quality of limestone and dolomite in Laoshan area. If you want to mine nearby, you can provide steelmaking furnace materials for steelmaking for steelmaking.

The steel mill involved another reason why Lin agreed to be indirectly related to him. It is estimated that several arsenals and the Arsenal Office of the State Government of a certain scale. After feeling the above-mentioned defence and even support and opposition from the Intelligence Department to intervene in the military industry, and after failing to disturb the situation, they began to jump out and seek development (Lin Mo's reasonable speculation based on some reasons, the prospecting team could not be exposed to these situations).

These guys jointly asked the superiors to restart the construction of Pukou Steel Plant and provide support for their ordnance construction and production. The purpose may be to attract the attention of the superiors and seize the funds that the government may invest in military construction and production.

The National Government actively planned to build a steel factory in Pukou two years ago, but the following was lost due to the excessive investment. This was the matter that the Arsenal Ordnance Department started.

Of course, if this matter was gone, they would not foolishly use the original plan. It was probably repairing and chopping, and basically only retained the high-quality steel materials and related supporting facilities required for the production of military industry.

However, the investment will not be much lower, at least tens of millions will go up. This still takes into account the recent rise in silver prices. The above may consider it and make some preliminary plans, just like the current arrangement of prospecting work.

But if you want to truly implement it, it is not difficult. Not to mention the government's strategy has begun to tilt backwards from the prospecting operation of the government, and it is unlikely to build a steel mill in Pukou.

Regarding the economic situation that the government may face in the next few years, if you want to spend a lot of money, you probably have to find a way to do the funds yourself, otherwise you will wait slowly.

"I understand the situation well. There are food left by the other party below. You can check it out if there is any problem. If there is no problem, just get some liquid food on the spot and let them deal with it simply, otherwise some of them may not be able to stand it."

"I understand..." After Du Qihong received the order, he led the team members to deal with it, while Lin Mo came to the resettlement place to find out some other situations.

What Lin Mo wanted to know was naturally the various situations that the other party experienced in the past few days, especially the situation that happened just now from the gunshot to the discovery of someone.

This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading! "...You mean, before the gunshot, the other party arranged two people, took you out to ask, and after the gunshots, one person said a few words, what does it mean to leave one.

I was asking you at that time, the person left locked you up after leaving. After a while, you heard another person outside called the rest of the person away, and then we found you, right?"

The other party nodded and shook his head, saying, "It's not just asking, but also threatening, forcing, intimidating and even taking action. Especially after the gun fired, the attack immediately became ruthless. Fortunately, it was over soon and the person was called away. As for what they said, he could understand."

The researcher replied that he was a little younger than him and should be a student, but his condition was worse and he was already leaning on the tree with powerlessness.

This is normal. This type of major requires long-term work in the field. The physical strength and tolerance of young students may not be as good as those who have participated in some years of work.

Among these dozen people, they are generally older but in better condition. For example, the expert in his fifties is just mentally exhausted and in a low mood, but normal walking, sitting and lying down is not a problem at all.

"They said they wanted to solve us...ah, no, right... the first time I just called someone, it seemed to be supporting or guarding. They lowered their voices, and I didn't hear them very clearly.

The second time was to kill us, and the man was left behind and said he wanted to deal with us, but the man seemed to say that he had no time to hold on first. He seemed to drag the man away by force after hearing the movement.

They spoke Japanese, and I could barely understand it. They seemed to have noticed that some of us could understand it. In the past two days of conversation, they began to avoid us. When they did not avoid it, the conversation was mixed with oral language. I just asked to guess and listened only two words…”

This guy was weak when he spoke. After barely explaining those two conversations, the language behind him was organized a little in a mess.

Lin Mo did not continue to ask the other party, comforting and caring, so he contacted the researcher he had just communicated and continued to ask for some important content.

I first asked about the student’s situation, mainly because the other party understood Japanese. Lin Mo felt that the situation provided by the other party was not a big problem.

The student had a good family mirror. When he was in high school, he planned to send him to study in Japan and found someone to learn Japanese.

However, when the student was in his senior year of high school, it happened to be September 18th, and he was unwilling to go. His parents later learned through channels that the anti-Chinese sentiment in Japan was high, and persecution against Chinese and international students often appeared, so they agreed to take the exam in China.

Currently studying in a well-known domestic university in engineering and mining major, and in the second year of university, this is not a fake, requires internships. For this large-scale exploration activity, the Institute of Geology has provided internships to relevant departments and selected those with excellent grades to join the prospecting team for internships.

"You just said, they interrogated you, what are they asking? Have you provided an explanation?"

"...It's all about family situation, address, what you usually learn and study, what you have discovered this time... Anyway, I ask everything in a mess, and I ask about other people's questions.

As for the explanation, how dare we? We ran into the mountain and ran into them, and we killed one person directly. We just wanted to argue a few words and then persecuted one person. These people are inhuman animals and asked you about your home address. Who dares to say this?

At least before, these guys pretended to be a wolf grandmother for you, asking you out with a kind look on their faces, and shamelessly said that they didn't want to hurt us, but in the end they gave us dirty water. It's really...

Until one or two hours ago, they showed their true face and began to give us some tricks. They threatened and intimidated and attacked them even more ruthlessly after the gunshot. There was no light in the cave, and I had no way to judge the time.

No one has ever given me a word of advice, but even if I say it, most of the content will definitely be wrinkled and irrelevant. After all, we know very well that no one can save us and we can't live.

Anyway, we have just come from all over the place, and we don’t have much time to get together, so we can’t tell each other about it. Even if we talk nonsense, the other party will not know the truth or the fake in the short term.

I knew that he could understand those people's words, so I told us about the old story. We were even less clear about other more private things, let alone providing other people's situations with others."

Lin Mo accompanied the role of the listener very well, without interrupting it casually, but in addition to nodding from time to time, Lin Mo and Yu Guang were also paying attention to the every move of others on the scene at all times.

It was not until the researcher finished talking that Lin Mo asked for some details and added some content.

Thank you, lit the cigarette for everyone, and finally Lin Mo walked to the old expert who led the team.

"Professor, I wonder if I can talk to you alone? Some things must be discussed with you."

The old expert didn't say much, took a few long sips, walked silently to the side, and Lin Mo also followed quietly until he walked a distance and the other party stopped before he spoke.

"Old sir?"

"…Lin…Don't let the surname Lin, Lin Jirong, Shuangmulin, Heziji, the prosperous Rong, the tenth year of Guangxu..."

The old expert not only showed his identity, but also made his birthday briefly clear, and did not ask Lin Mo to try and interrogate him little by little.

The other party was a foreign student at the beginning of the century. After returning to China, he worked in the Northeast for most of his time, working in mining companies, departments and teaching institutions, engaged in mineral exploration research, mineral mining and processing, industrial and mining machinery smelting research, industrial and mining students' technical training and teaching, etc.

Lin Jirong's industry work ranges a wide range of industries, covering the entire upstream industry from prospecting to mining and then to smelting. Before September 18, he mainly worked in upstream industries such as military industry, mining, and other industrial categories in Northeast China.

His knowledge involves a wide range of areas and has extensive research in various fields. He is very versatile, but he has many fields of knowledge, which makes him less famous in a single field.

This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading! Or he spends most of his time studying silently, and in multiple fields, of course he is not working behind closed doors, and he must have communicated with the outside world, but he has been scattered into famous industries and has fewer interactions with many single-field researchers. He knows that fewer people know about him, and his reputation will naturally not be spread. Of course, there must be reasons why he doesn't care about these things.

After 918, he withdrew south with the team and later joined a local junior college and worked as a professor to teach students in school. This time he was invited to become the leader of the prospecting team and lead the team to carry out prospecting activities.

In the Nanjing National Government, the military industry has attracted a group of experts who retreated from northeast to south. Of course, some of them know his skills, so they found him to lead the team here for the other party to explore.

The researcher said something just now was not complete. Some laymen from the Arsenal Bureau saw that there were many high-grade iron ore distributed around Nanjing, and wanted him to explore it and see if there were undiscovered iron ore deposits in the Laoshan area next to Pukou.

If an iron ore deposit worth mining can be found here and iron ore is supplied nearby, the chances of success of the steel mill proposal proposed by the other party will be greatly increased.

However, Lin Jirong is deeply immersed in mineralogy, especially mineralogy. After a rough understanding of the geological conditions here, he knows that there is basically no chance.

However, it is not easy to directly refuse the party's request to drag it out, so Lin Jirong changed his direction, mainly to explore the distribution and taste of limestone and dolomite in Laoshan area, and to see if he could find limestone and dolomite mining areas worth mining.
