In the end, the manager could not resist Galdan because this gentle young man was not only his subordinate, but also his friend. In the past winter, the two formed a deep friendship. Galdan changed from an ordinary subordinate to a drunkard, a tutor and a neighbor. If he hadn't considered that his sister was less than sixteen years old, Galdan might have become his sister-in-law. Even so, the relationship between them was still close.

In the end, the manager took Galdan to a textile factory in Humal, which was also the largest textile factory in Humal. It owns the most advanced textile machinery in Humal. The manager is not only an important partner, but also a small shareholder of the textile factory. Therefore, Galdan can stay in the textile factory all day without having to sneak in.

Galdan was very excited to visit advanced hydraulic machinery, but after he stayed in the textile factory for a whole day and learned about hydraulic textile machinery, Galdan felt only despair.

In essence, Galdan's trip to the empire was a spy attribute. Of course, it was only a trivial matter to investigate the news for the Qing Dynasty. He wanted to understand the secret of the rise of the empire to learn from it. Before coming to the empire, Galdan's impression of the empire was mostly heard from hearsays, and more negative news.

In Galdan's perception, the soldiers of the Empire were cowardly and dared to shrink behind the city wall or form formations to set off guns and cannons, and did not dare to fight closely. The Empire's victory was mainly due to its large population, so it did not require the soldiers to be equipped with armor. There were many similar lies. However, after he entered Humaar, what he saw was different from the rumors. At least it was definitely not worthy not to give armor to soldiers. After all, the high-quality armor produced by Humaar is very cheap.

Galdan was interested in all the novel objects of the empire, but there were also differences between the primary and secondary. For example, Humal's shipyard was not guarded in winter, and Galdan could watch it at will, but he lacked interest because neither Tibet nor the Western Regions used ships. Galdan was most interested in forging and textiles, because these two industries were recognized as the leading industry in the empire's advantageous industries, and the raw materials, ore and wool required by both industries were not short of Galdan's hometown. His hometown also had big rivers, so naturally there was no shortage of water.

However, the theory is much crueler than reality. The Junggar tribe may not lack wool, but its quality is absolutely unfavorable. The empire introduced the long-fleece sheep species from Spain. Even if the quality is not considered, the Junggar cannot accurately comb, clean, remove fat, and bleach like the empire. There is no cheap dye for dyeing, and there is no blacksmith who can process essential parts of hydraulic machinery such as screws and gears. He even suspects that even if he can transport a set of machinery back, the craftsmen in his hometown may not be able to assemble it.

Hydraulic machinery does not just have water. Hydraulic machinery requires stable water flow, so ponds, sluices and canals must be built, and this is a completely different job. Galdan also imagined hiring or even kidnapped a group of people back to his hometown. However, after visiting the textile factory, he found that if the same textile factory was built in Junggar, there were more than a thousand people who needed to be kidnapped, and these people were not found in Humal. Galdan clearly realized that the difficulty of opening a textile factory on the grassland was about the same as capturing the land outside the empire’s Shanhaiguan. Only in this way can the required talents, machinery and technology be collected. Of course, Galdan’s idea was still wrong. At least the textile factory he visited and some key parts in the hydraulic machinery were provided by only a few big cities in the empire’s hinterland, and there were no Vladivostok and Yongning City.

In any case, Galdan at least understood that the textile industry needed complete industrial support, technical support and talent echelons, rather than what he expected to do by kidnapping a few people and stealing a few parts. However, this truth from practice was so cold and ruthless for a Junggar noble who wanted to revitalize his tribe and resist the rule of the Central Plains dynasty. What Galdan did not discover was that the longer he spent in the empire, the more incredible things he had seen, and his beliefs and persistence were slowly loosening.

As an ambitious young man, Galdan obviously would not be restrained by these things for too long. After understanding this period, Galdan clearly realized the fact that both the Junggar tribe and Tibet were too far from the empire. They were not a profound scholar at all. They could save a book with rich knowledge, and they could not make up for it by his own struggle. Therefore, Galdan chose to give up. He felt that technology, knowledge and military could not guarantee that his tribe would not be annexed to the empire and that his beliefs would not be controlled by the empire. The only possible means was politics. There was no need to search within the empire. He had a rich knowledge reserve and a stage for practice.

After making the decision, Galdan chose to end some of his plans and instead became a real spy, reconnaissance the empire's military deployment in several provinces and appeasement zones outside the pass, and then returned to the north of the mourning area to put a perfect end to his trip to the east. He simply had a perfect cover. When spring came and when the managers purchased all kinds of goods, Galdan boarded the Dogfish merchant ship, brought the account book, letters and various documents, and went to Yongning City to do what the accountant should do. This round-trip journey was Galdan's spy journey.

The Pigfish is a passenger and cargo merchant ship that travels between Humal and Yongning City all year round. Its huge belly can carry dozens of tons of cargo, and the two masts provide the main power. In the spring, it will be loaded with fur, medicinal materials and leather produced by Humal to Yongning. Of course, the larger cabin space belongs to ironware, furniture and other products. Because after the establishment of the Heilongjiang Appeasement Zone, there were many more towns along Heilongjiang. These towns that were ineffective for any cargo, which was also what Galdan chose to do.

The important reason is that the Dogfish will pass through many towns and military bases, which are the targets of Galdan's investigation, but Galdan ignored one thing. Many people on such a ship had the same security as the living environment. One of Galdan's suitcases disappeared at the first stop of the Dogfish, and then it was a wallet with him. When he arrived at the transit station for the trip, Heilongjiang City, Galdan only had the clothes he was wearing, and even the underwear that was drying in the aisle was put on the crotch of which dog thing he was wearing.

"Thieves! They are all thieves. If I ask me to catch you, I must twist his head off!" After throwing away the important file bag, Galdan finally couldn't stand it and shouted angrily on the boat.

The captain who was directing the unloading of goods heard Galdan's shouts and hurriedly ran out of the cabin. Looking at Galdan's disheveled hair, waving his arms and shouting. The captain cursed: "Shut up, and you have caused the local sheriff, but what happened? If someone stole something, go to the city to report the case. But I remind you one thing, the Pigfish will leave Heilongjiang City tomorrow. If you haven't handled your own business at that time, I won't wait for you, and the ticket will not be refunded!"

"But my stuff was stolen, and it was an important account book and my ID card inside." Galdan roared. He didn't care about the account book, because when he set off, a account book had been sent to Yongning. It would be fine if he lost the original, but the key is that his ID card was also inside.

As a Mongolian, Galdan felt the various inconveniences of foreigners in the empire during the four months of living in Humal. Whenever he walked alone on the road, there would always be a sheriff asking him about his origin and looking at his ID card. When he walked with the manager, there would be no such situation. The plateau redness on his face and Mongolian appearance on his face were difficult to move to Yongning without his ID card.

"If you suspect someone has stolen, go find someone. Don't yell here, otherwise I will be polite to you." said the captain.

But where did Galdan find it? From Humal to Heilongjiang City, there were hundreds of people on the ship, and he didn't know any of the passengers who were still in the cabin. Just when Galdan had nowhere to vent, several sailors came out of the cargo hold with wooden boxes. Galdan saw at a glance that one of the sailors' shoes was his own. Galdan immediately called him and grabbed the sailor's neck: "Where did your shoes come from? These are my shoes!"

The sailor was an old fried dough stick on the Pigfish. He was not afraid of Galdan's troubles. He slammed his feet on the box and asked, "You said this is your shoe. Can it agree if you call it?"

"It's a pair of shoes, how can I agree!" Galdan said angrily. He suddenly remembered something in his heart. Although his shoes were bought in Humal, the insole inside was given to him by his sister who was in charge. He knew exactly what it looked on. Galdan immediately said: "The insoles of this pair of shoes are embroidered with plum blossoms, and each has a word, which is my name, Chahun."

As he said that, Galdan had already pulled one of them off. Sure enough, there was a plum blossom pattern on the insole and a word "See". The people around him were immediately interested, but the sailor didn't care at all. He snatched his shoes and put them on his feet, widened his eyes and asked, "Why are you embroidering your name on my insole?"

"Yes, yes..." A group of sailors also agreed. The captain held the knife and leaned against the side to watch the show, without any intention of being fair.

Galdan was furious. Seeing that the group of people were unreasonable, he rushed up and kicked the sailor aside, cursing: "I have to smash your nest today!"

Galdan also has martial arts skills, and is skilled in archery and horses, and has great strength. He suddenly attacked several sailors and called out his parents. However, the captain himself also had two brushes and was holding weapons. Although he dared not unsheath the sheath and exposed his blade, he finally had something to do with Galdan.

As the fight broke out, the Pigfish exploded, and the crying and screaming attracted the security team patrolling the dock. As the whistle sounded, the security team holding sticks rushed into the cabin of the Pigfish and caught all those involved in the fight without saying a word. The security team leader was a one-eyed dragon. After entering the cabin, he saw the captain's knife thrown to the ground and said, "You are still smart and have not drawn your sword."

The captain's face was covered in blood and grinned: "I understand the rules. The sword is fierce. I draw my sword today, and I am afraid I will not be able to leave."

The security captain nodded and asked, "What is the reason for fighting here?"

"This ship is a thief's nest. They stole my things by guarding themselves..." Galdan was restrained by the two of them and told him everything that happened.

The security captain ordered the sailor to take off the shoes, pull out the insole and throw them in front of Galdan: "Then you can at most prove that the insole is yours. These shoes are sold everywhere. Who can say that they are yours? As for the things you lost, will you lose them if you say they are lost? Who can prove that you have brought them on the boat?"

Before Galdan could speak, the security captain looked at the people involved in the fight, with injuries on his face and body, and said, "You have all beaten people, and they have all been beaten. The insole is back to Chahun. This matter is over, are there any objections?"

The captain waved his hand: "We have no objection."

"What about you, Chahui?"

Galdan said angrily: "I have objections, I want to search the ship!"

"Why do you need to search for a ship?"

"I want to get my stuff back," said Galdan.

The captain shook his head helplessly, thinking that he encountered a lump of wood, and said, "I have helped you find the insole you lost. As for whether you lost other things, I don't know, but I see the matter of your beating. Come on, take this guy off the boat and take the horn to sober up."

As soon as the words came, the two men carried Galdan out of the cabin. Several sailors spitted and cursed: "Dog Tartar, you have the courage to slander me, and you dare to slander me for stealing you."

"Bah, I'm shameless. I have to go to the prison to be at peace. Go and eat your prison."

"I don't agree, I don't agree!" Galdan shouted loudly, and suddenly used force to break free from the two sheriffs. He was about to find the security captain just now, but suddenly he felt ache in his head and was knocked out by someone. The security captain left the stick to his waist and waved his hand: "Send it to the trumpet, keep it alone, see if this dog is still barking, it's shameless to give it a shameless thing!"

"Yes, sir!" the sheriff's subordinate responded, dragging Galdan toward the public security office.

The captain stood on the Pigfish and said to a group of people watching the fun: "Did you see? This is the end of the Tartars. You should also be careful, don't make trouble for it, the sheriff is not easy to mess with."

"Boss, he was caught. How can we explain to Yongning? After all, the ticket was bought."
