This is so beautiful, I'm covered
Chapter 11 Celadon Noodle Bowl
When Kou Yi stepped into the warehouse covered in cold air, there was only Boss Fan inside.
Boss Fan couldn't stand on his legs for a long time, so he was sitting on a wooden wheelchair.
Hearing that Kou Yi came in, he turned back with a slightly teasing tone and said, "I disturbed your rest, I will have to apologize to that child later."
"..." Kou Yi looked away from his leg, walked behind him, stretched out his hand to hold the armrest of the wheelchair, pursed his lips into a straight line, and asked after a while, "Is there a problem?"
Boss Fan smiled: "There is a problem. The brothers ordered the goods just now and found a lot of things that shouldn't appear."
If Governor Li used an official ship to transport the goods, it would probably be spices, medicinal materials, gemstones, etc. brought back from overseas.
If you don't use the official ship and take the civilian road, then it is probably some shady goods, and it may even be private salt.
Not all officials are worthless, and Kou Yi also knows this well, so he replied, "Is it for leaking boats?"
Boss Fan nodded and said, "It's indeed a leak, but it's not that simple."
He turned around and patted Kou Yi's hand, and said, "Go and see."
Kou Yi was in a fog, so he went to investigate.
Lifting the top cover of a wooden box, I saw a full cloth bag lying inside, and when the drawstring was removed, pure white powder came out.
Kou Yi crushed it with his fingers, showing a look of astonishment.
He is very familiar with this thing, it is saltpeter powder - the raw material for making fire/powder.
Great Wei attaches great importance to military development, and the production of gunpowder and firearms is not solely the responsibility of the treasury-funded country, but also with the help of merchants.
In the four districts and eleven provinces in the southeast region, the highest administrative officials and the highest military officials perform their duties, and the administrator is Governor Li.
Therefore, Governor Li is actually a civil servant, not in charge of the military, let alone responsible for any weapon manufacturing.
There are two responsible for the manufacture of weapons, the official is the southeast army battalion, and the merchant is...
"You mean, it's related to the Zhou family?" Kou Yi got up and said.
"In addition to several boxes of saltpeter, there are other raw materials for firearms." Boss Fan replied, "These are far from what the Li family needs. The Zhou family is the only arms manufacturer in the southeast, so I'm afraid they cannot get away with it. "
Kou Yi's jawline was tense, as if he didn't care about it, he walked back to Boss Fan's back, and said softly, "What's the matter with me?"
Boss Fan had anticipated his reaction long ago, and then said: "The Li and Zhou families have similar tastes, and they have taken advantage of each other over the years. Now the Li family's disaster has fallen from the sky, and it has been burned to ashes. It was originally the work of the Zhou family. The goods are wandering around and cannot be returned. It is said that the servants are making trouble, do you think so?"
Kou Yi was extremely cold and stiff, he held onto the armrest of Boss Fan's wheelchair and was about to go out, his voice was filled with impatience: "It has nothing to do with me."
"Oh..." Boss Fan sighed softly, let him push himself out, and said, "Brother wants to seek justice for you."
Kou Yi paused, and after a while, he just said, "Thank you, Brother Fan."
He hasn't had a rest since he came back last night. Boss Fan couldn't help but change the subject when he saw this matter, and asked: "You have been alone all these years, and you have never talked to anyone except me and Xiao Dou. Why? For the first time this time, take the initiative to bring people into the gang?"
Kou Yiwu heaved a sigh of relief, not mentioning the "Zhou family", his expression softened a bit, and he replied: "I should have told you last night, but I forgot. The servants you said were making trouble, it was... "
Boss Fan reacted quickly: "He is the servant of the Li family? No wonder the time to board the boat was right after the Li family was destroyed."
"At the moment everyone thinks that the fire in Li's mansion was deliberately done by him. If he doesn't take him in, he will die if he goes back."
Kou Yi's attitude towards Boss Fan is different from that of others. He basically asks and answers, and his tone contains respect that is not intentionally revealed.
20 years old is still the age when many people are stunned, but it seems that only when he is in front of Boss Fan can he faintly reveal a childish look.
Boss Fan laughed and said, "What does this have to do with you taking him in? Is it because you are afraid that he will die?"
"Cough..." Kou Yi blinked unconsciously, and said, "He has a clever mind and good skills, and he can enter Tiankun."
He also knew that he didn't answer the point. After thinking about it, he added, "I brought him into the gang, so I will take good care of him. There are many people in the gang, and I won't let him do nothing for nothing."
Boss Fan was so disturbed by Kou Yi's sudden promise that he wanted to laugh, he waved his hands and said, "Whatever, I don't care about you."
"However," he changed the topic again, and smiled, "Xiao Dou asked me to ask you, are those crazy things that the gang said about you true?"
"..."
"You made a bet with Xiao Dou. You promised that the knife would not be stained with blood or dust when you came back from this trip, but the tip of the knife was stained with blood. If you accept the bet, just answer him a question, otherwise he will scratch his heart and lungs. Jump, it's your brother Fan's ears that suffer."
Kou Yi sighed lightly, and asked, "What's the buzz?"
"Three days on the boat, the nephrite is in my arms, the fragrance is warm and my teeth are full."
Kou Yi's temples twitched suddenly, Boss Fan didn't usually say such sour words, this was the result of Dou Xueyi embellishing the rumors spread by the public.
"He's a man, how come there is such soft jade and gentle fragrance?" Kou Yi said speechlessly, "In the few days when Kuang was sailing, he and I were not just doing nothing."
Boss Fan shrugged, and replied: "It's really because your performance is so different from usual, Xiao Dou naturally finds it interesting."
Kou Yi pushed Boss Fan back to the main ship's room, helped him to sit on the bed, and finally left.
There are not many business matters, but a lot of irrelevant things are asked.When he passed by Dou Xueyi who happened to be returning home after preparing the medicine, he couldn't help giving the curious ghost a blank look.
"Hey..." Dou Xueyi looked at Kou Yi's back and paused, walked back to the room quickly, and asked impatiently, "Have you asked? Are you asleep?"
"...No." Boss Fan said helplessly.
"Didn't ask or did you sleep?"
"Didn't sleep."
"Ah... Let me just say, that little Pei is not very old, and Master Kou is not an old beast." Dou Xueyi said, but he sat down by the bed with some disappointment, and passed the medicinal soup, Said, "By the way, I saw Xiao Pei go to the food cabin just now."
Pei Yuli did go to the food cabin.
The main rudder of the Tiankun Gang is on the Diaoyu Island side, but the basic necessities of the gang members are all carried out in the fleet. For Tiankun, the Diaoyu Island is more of a huge warehouse.
As for what's inside, Pei Yuli hasn't found out yet.
He just wandered around in the food cabin, chatted a few random words with the helpers who came forward to talk, and came up with such a piece of information.
It's early morning now, and there are many breakfasts prepared in the dining room, it's a bit like a market in the city, with cooks in front of every stall.
It's just that there is no need to spend money for food here, because everything in the Tiankun Gang is made by helping the crowd to fight together.
Pei Yuli didn't pay much attention to food, and the result of being used to being hungry since childhood was that he was very insensitive to hunger.
But he knew that he was completely frozen by the cold wind the night before, and if he didn't find something warm to eat, he might catch the cold again.
He was not in the mood to choose, he went straight to the nearest place and ordered a bowl of steaming white shallot noodles, and sat in a corner by himself.
In such a huge gang, it is impossible for everyone to have the same hearts.
Yikou Yi is proud of his talent and attitude towards people and things, and there must be many people who are dissatisfied with him.
Pei Yuli picked up a noodle and put it in his mouth. He didn't taste anything, but as expected, someone had already cast their eyes on it.
He lowered his head and ate the noodles without squinting.
Soon, from the corner of the eye, I saw two people, one tall and one short, walking towards this side.
"Brother Xiong!" It seemed that someone hurriedly shouted from behind, "Don't be impulsive! Come back!"
But the tall and short man didn't turn back, but pulled away the chair opposite Pei Yuli with two clatters, and sat down.
"Alas!" Seeing that there was no way to dissuade the person behind, he stomped his feet on the spot and walked away by himself.
The one tall and the one short looked at Pei Yuli for a long while, but at first they didn't say anything, and then seeing that Pei Yuli didn't take the initiative to answer, the taller one stretched out his hand and knocked on the table very rudely.
When he knocked, the wooden table shook, and the noodle soup was so full that it almost spilled out.
Pei Yuli slowly raised his head.
Only then did I see that these two people are all in a thick body, although there is a huge difference in height, their facial features are almost the same, they look like a pair of brothers.
"What's your name?" The tall man tapped on the table again.
Pei Yuli raised the corner of his mouth slightly, showing a superficial smile, and replied, "Pei Yuli."
"Which words? Say it clearly."
"Feiyi Pei, 'The yin is full of depression, and the festival is full of lili'[1], the bamboo is full of gloom." Pei Yuli put down his chopsticks, "Brothers, did I make it clear enough?"
The two of them looked contemptuous and shallow-minded at first glance, they didn't know what "depressed" and "lili" meant, and when they heard that the other party's question seemed to be sarcasm, they felt a little bit embarrassed at the moment.
The short one said bluntly: "Eat a noodle, you bitch, and give it a name, it's so fucking sour, what the hell!"
His voice was already loud, and he couldn't stop talking.
Many people in the food cabin whispered and glanced this way.
The tall one stretched out his hand to stop him, and signaled his companion not to be so ostentatious, he sneered, and said: "I still think Kou's eyes are on the top of my head, how high can my eyesight be, I've been doing this for a long time. "
He let out a few more suppressed weird laughs, and said: "Some women prefer to fuck men instead of fucking, and normal people don't want to be some kind of second chair. Could it be that men are more attractive and more energetic?"
Pei Yuli narrowed his eyes and said nothing.
"May I ask you, are you dumb?" The short man came up and sang again, pushing his two strong arms forward, causing the long wooden table to bump forward as a whole.
The wooden chopsticks fell from the bowl to the table, rolled down again, and landed on the ground with a crisp sound.
The noodle soup was knocked left and right in the bowl, and a piece of it was splashed out.
"I don't know who has more water," Pei Yuli raised his eyes and glanced at the two brothers, his right hand had already been stretched out, and his tone was harsh, "But the soup in this bowl must be as much as your blood! "
bang——
Under the eyes of everyone, the celadon noodle bowl shattered on the short man's head, and the shards fell to the ground together with the noodle soup.Blood spurted out, ran down the man's dark forehead, flowed through his astonished eye sockets, and stained half of his vulgar face red.
Boss Fan couldn't stand on his legs for a long time, so he was sitting on a wooden wheelchair.
Hearing that Kou Yi came in, he turned back with a slightly teasing tone and said, "I disturbed your rest, I will have to apologize to that child later."
"..." Kou Yi looked away from his leg, walked behind him, stretched out his hand to hold the armrest of the wheelchair, pursed his lips into a straight line, and asked after a while, "Is there a problem?"
