"Is there such a good thing?" Allen pretended not to know.
"Of course. Will I lie to you?"
Allen's father was very excited and hurried to pack up the things with his mother.
"Allen, come here and help us! We are moving into a new house!"
"We are going to live in the city!"
The house they got for free was in the city. They were going to move to the city from the town.
Suddenly, Allen's mother said, "By the way, your father has forgotten that we can find a job in the ship factory after it is completed!"
The two of them were very happy. After all, it was very tiring to open a restaurant in the town before, and they didn't make much money. But now, they could work in the ship factory, so they didn't care about the restaurant anymore.
It must be easier to work in the ship factory than opening a restaurant.
"Arrange work?" Allen pretended to be surprised.
He also knew about it. In order not to make his parents too tired, he specially ordered Shane to allow people in the small town to work in his ship factory.
"The owner of this ship factory is really a good person. He not only gave us compensation but also arranged a house and work for us." Allen's mother was very grateful to the owner of the ship factory.
Allen smiled. He wondered how his mother would react if she knew that he was the boss of the ship factory.
Allen wouldn't tell anyone about it, he could not tell anyone about this at present.
Suddenly, Allen's father was stunned.
Allen asked, "Dad, what's wrong with you?"
His father looked at him and said thoughtfully, "Do you think there is something wrong with this matter?"
"How could such a good thing happen? Not only did he give me money, but also gave me a house and arranged a job!"
Allen's father doubted the authenticity of this matter.
Allen smiled bitterly.
"Dad, is it just a verbal statement? Isn't there any paper contract or something?" Allen asked.
"I think so. We will sign the contract with our mayor in a few days."
"Well, then let's see how the contract is written, okay?"
The father nodded and said, "You're right. We'll know whether it's true or not then. If we really sign the contract, then it's true."
Allen continued, "If you really have the compensation of ten million, you don't have to work hard to open a restaurant in the future. You two just enjoy your life at home!"
The father laughed and said, "You're right. If we really have so much compensation, why do we still work so hard?"
So much money was enough for the three of them to spend a long time.
"But we can't just stay at home. We still have to work. Why don't we go to the ship factory to work?" Allen's father said.
"Well, I think so. Let's go to work in the ship factory later!" Allen's mother agreed.
After a while, the three of them sat at the dining table. Allen's father became worried.
Allen asked, "Dad, what's wrong with you?"
"I still think the compensation of ten million is too much. I'm flustered with so much money." Allen's father said.
Allen didn't know how to comfort his father. His father even thought there was too much money.
"In fact, the money is not very high. Many big cities have more compensation than this!" Allen comforted him.
"Oh, I see. Is there really so much compensation now?"
"Of course, but the compensation depends on its location. If it's a good location, no matter how much money they have to pay."
Allen advised, "Anyway, you can go to the town and have a look when you sign the contract with the ship factory."
In fact, it was normal for them to get so much compensation. After all, it was a military land, and the military would certainly not let the people of Bama State suffer losses.
Three days later, a meeting was indeed held in the town, and all the residents attended.
They saw a representative of the ship factory and a general beside him.
The general was Shane.
Everyone was surprised to see Shane. They didn't expect that it had anything to do with the navy.
They thought that they were building a ship factory, which might be cooperation with the army.
Everyone seemed to be relieved. After all, with the protection of the army, this matter must be true.
The owner of the ship factory must be very rich, and each household could get ten million.
The small town by the sea was actually not big, only five or six kilometers wide.
But even so, it was still a very big project to build the whole town into a ship factory.
At this time, Allen also came. He was standing in the crowd.
Allen looked at Shane with a smile.
He wouldn't have thought that the mysterious captain was standing there.
Shane really didn't know that the mysterious captain was standing there.
After all, the location of this town was really good, and it was very close to the navy base in Santiago.
And near the sea.
Besides, Allen wanted to distract his attention. In addition to the small town, two other small towns were also expropriated.
The project involved more than 2,000 families. On such a large scale, even if Shane suspected that the captain was among these people, he could not find out.
And there was no need to do that. The mysterious captain was helping Bama State until now without any other purpose.
Allen chose this place to build a ship factory, not just to take care of his own home.
This place was indeed suitable for a ship factory because there was a deep water port nearby, which was very suitable for large ships to dock.
Allen looked at Shane. It was the first time that he had looked at him so closely.
They used to talk on the screen, not face to face because Shane couldn't see Allen at all.
If he ran up to Shane and said, "In fact, I'm the captain Allen."
Shane might be taken aback.
The meeting held in the town was for everyone to sign their names. Soon, everyone had signed their names.
Every resident was very happy. After all, they couldn't refuse such a large amount of compensation.
Even some families who didn't want to leave their hometown where they had lived for many years were persuaded by their family and signed their names.
After all, with so much compensation, they could still arrange a job and give them a house.
No one would refuse such a good offer.
There was a term in the contract that all the residents here could choose to work in the ship factory or leave here voluntarily.
About half of them chose to work in the ship factory.
