Chapter 221: Grab a job?
The merchant ship's galley was in the room at the west end of the second floor, where the sea was just in sight, and apart from the next cabin for eating, the rest of the cabin was where the crew rested. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
Uncle Fu led me all the way over, and by the way, he also introduced the structure of the merchant ship. lest I accidentally stumble into a place I shouldn't go.
The upper part of our floor is the place where we saw Yue Yun just now, and we have split a room specifically for receiving distinguished guests. In addition, there was only Yue Yun's room and the storage room where the good goods were stacked. Uncle Fu said that there was a mechanism in the storage room, and there were copper plates embedded in the wood around it, so as long as the thieves entered, there was no hope of coming out alive.
The bottom layer is the bottom warehouse where the general goods are stacked, and the space in the bottom warehouse is very high, and it is divided into two layers with thick partitions, the upper layer is the goods, and the lower layer is where the boatman who is responsible for stepping on the twenty large oars is located.
Ten thick oars on one side. However, there were only four boatmen - tigers on their backs, and they pulled out the mountains.
They didn't really need to step on it, there were ten powerful tamed beasts on this ship. The crew members were only responsible for managing the beasts, and the beasts were all responsible for stepping on the oars.
"Uncle Fu, are all these fierce beasts caught by the caravan themselves, and what do they look like?" I stared curiously at the deck under my feet, eager to grow fire eyes and burn a hole in the deck, so that I could take a look at those fierce beasts.
Just as he was thinking about it, Uncle Fu in front of him suddenly stopped, turned his head and squinted his eyes and said seriously: "You are not allowed to go to the bottom, and you must not easily go to the top." Those fierce beasts only have green fangs, and although they are tame, they cannot withstand the stimulation of the living. Otherwise, you will eat people at any time!"
"Thank you, Uncle Fu...... I—I see. I swallowed, and my whole body seemed to tremble, and they dared to step on the oars of the man-eating beasts.
It can only be said that the strength of this caravan in terms of force is really not to be underestimated.
After listening to Uncle Fu's introduction, I decided that when I got acquainted, I must go to the bottom to open my eyes and see what kind of beast they caught. Don't you dare to mention it now, otherwise you will be thrown into the sea as a suspicious person, right?
As he spoke, he was only moments away from the westernmost cabin. As soon as you enter, you will see a variety of fruits, vegetables and meat, but there are few fish.
I think it's because I walk on the sea all year round, and I'm tired of eating fish, and I can fish myself, so I don't buy fish when I buy ingredients. The cabin is very cold, and it is supposed to be filled with ice cubes to keep the ingredients fresh on hot days.
"Yo, you're the kid who came to steal my job?" I was startled when someone suddenly came out from under the table with the cutting board, ingredients, and spices.
Fortunately, my little lady has become accustomed to this sudden fright in my heart, although I was scared to death in my heart, I could barely maintain my composure on my face. Of course, his sudden emergence didn't scare me to death.
I took a quick look at the person who came out, and it was not the same as the chef in my impression.
Thin, very thin, very thin! A pair of eyes as big as walnuts, a nose like a goshawk's beak with a crooked hook, thin lips and a teasing smile, collarbones on display, and a hand holding a piece of wood comparable to dry wood in his hand.
A strip of cyan embroidered fish pattern cloth is tied to his head, and a quaint bronze tripod earring hangs on his left ear. The bronze pendant is as thick as a thumb and is worn with a small and delicate brass ring that hangs from the ear through the piercing.
There are no earrings on the other side, but a braid from the top of the head hangs down from the ear.
Hidden behind the desk from the waist down, he couldn't be seen, but I guess his legs were also two thin bamboo poles.
The villain's name is Lu Youqian, he is not here to rob the master of his job, but to help the master master. I smiled and hugged my fist at him, no matter whether I am the city lord or not, I am well versed in the benefits of sweet mouths, so I am naturally polite.
When the other party saw me smiling so honestly, the teasing smile on the corner of his mouth was hidden.
He put down the firewood and wiped his hands on the cloth in front of him: "Your kid's mouth is quite sweet, but I don't know if the kung fu in his hands is just as good." You'd better not have any bad ideas, though, or I'll castrate you. ”
"Okawa, don't scare him. Uncle Fu spoke beside me, his voice old but majestic.
"Uncle Fu, what are you worried about? I, Ning Dachuan, am just a kid like my sister-in-law, and I am laughing. I won't really do that, as I said, since I got on the merchant ship, I am not the same person as before. Ning Dachuan walked around the desk.
Uncle Fu didn't bother to pay attention to his explanation, and Wu Zi continued: "Master Yue wants to test this kid, you go and bring the remaining fish that no one eats to cook for him." ”
"Good. Ning Dachuan shook his eyebrows at me, as if to say, "Boy, you have a difficult task." ”
I couldn't understand Yue Yun in an instant, listening to the conversation between Uncle Fu and Ning Dachuan, I guess the people on the boat were tired of eating fish. In that case, he also asked me to cook fish, wasn't it just deliberately difficult?
But he ordered the ship to sail away, doesn't it already mean that I must have passed this test?
"Uncle Fu, how long has it been since you have eaten fish?" No matter what Yue Yun thought, I just want to stay anyway! To be careful, I asked Uncle Fu for the necessary information.
However, Uncle Fu did not hide it, and said everything that should have been let me know: "I haven't eaten fish for five days." However, they can only eat fish to survive at sea. On the way to Qi country, I ate fish for about three months. ”
"Three months?!!Eat only fish every day?" I was stunned, I must have been tired of this for a long time! Five days of stopping in the intestinal village did not make much use at all.
It's no wonder that there are so many fruits, vegetables and other meats in this kitchen, and they don't hesitate to pile ice cubes in the corners of the kitchen to keep them cold. I walked over to the desk and saw that there were ice cubes bigger than bricks lined up under the desk.
Uncle Fu touched his beard, reminiscing about the days when he ate fish until he vomited, and even his eyebrows wrinkled: "Yes, I eat fish every day." Although the owner of the shore was instructed to buy more fruits, vegetables and other meats, it was still not enough to eat. In the last few months, I will definitely eat fish. But at that time, I don't think the fish is unpalatable. ”
"I just ate it continuously, and after a long time, I wanted to vomit when I saw the fish. Uncle Fu glanced at a few fish that Ning Dachuan turned out with disgust and froze into ice cubes.
When Ning Dachuan put down the fish, he also took over the conversation by the way and said: "If it weren't for the fact that these are rare varieties, the owner would be reluctant to throw them away, and they would sell them and say that this fish is not delicious in ice cubes and will not be bought." There will not be any left. ”
