Chapter 990: Gift!

PS: The second more is asking for a monthly pass, please support more.

"Make up a story?"

For a moment, Tao Dou was dumbfounded, and then exclaimed excitedly: "I don't believe it, by the way, that painting." That painting can prove that this thing is true, and Grandpa said that it was a relic of the Pirate King, which is why he cherished it so much......"

"Beans, don't make a fuss."

At this time, Tao Li said angrily: "That painting is indeed handed down by the ancestors, but it definitely has nothing to do with the Pirate King." Because things are not handed down by our ancestors, but grandma's dowry, so grandpa will pay so much attention. ”

"What?" Tao Dou's mouth opened wide, and he felt like his faith had collapsed.

"Well, your sister is right."

At this time, Tao Tao was also very sure: "The picture is indeed your grandmother's dowry, speaking of which, your grandmother was also born in a scholarly family, and later married your grandfather." So, stop daydreaming those unrealistic things, work honestly, and don't worry about your sister anymore. ”

“…… How so. Tao Dou was devastated and had a dejected expression. Not long ago, I thought I had arrived in heaven, but the next second I found out that it was hell. The ups and downs of life are too fast to accept.

"Who told you to be cranky?"

Tao Li glared, then turned around and said, "I'm sorry, this kid is often like this, he is already twenty years old and has not grown up." The brain always likes to think of messy things that make you laugh. ”

"It's okay, it's okay."

Gao Zhuang waved his hand and said with a smile: "Young people, it is understandable that they have a richer imagination. I think I was like this back then, always looking forward to one day getting a treasure map and digging up the treasure left behind by the Pirate King......"

"Brother Gao, aren't you doing something like this now?"

At the same time, Wang Guan smiled: "I didn't have the ability before. All this must be a pipe dream. But now that the conditions are in place, then it is possible to turn the dream into reality. ”

"You're right."

Gao Zhuang thought so, groaned, and suddenly asked, "Brother Tao, are you really willing to work on the ship?" ”

“…… Yes, of course I do. ”

After Tao Dou was stunned for a moment, he reacted instantly, a touch of excitement flashed in his eyes, and he nodded again and again: "This is my dream all along." ”

"Then you should know. Working on a ship is not an easy task. Gao Zhuang said solemnly: "The wind blows and the sun blows, and the sea water soaks from time to time, and the hardships are unbearable for ordinary people." ”

"Kodaka is right."

Tao Tao nodded beside him, with a little reminiscence on his face: "And sometimes, I have been floating on the sea for several months in a row, and I have never seen land. That kind of boredom can even make people sick. ”

"Don't be afraid, I can overcome it." Tao Dou said firmly. There is quite a bit of the momentum of a newborn calf who is not afraid of tigers.

"It's a nice talk."

At the right time, Tao Li frowned and said: "I'm afraid that if you stay on the ship for a few days, you will cry and wipe your tears to get off the ship, and it will not only be you embarrassed at that time." Brother Gao is not good-looking on the face. ”

"Sister, am I that kind of person?" Tao Dou said angrily: "I'm not that bad!" ”

"It's hard to say." Tao Li shook her head and said: "You are so ambitious, you can't work hard when you are on land, let alone on the ship." I'm afraid I'll get carried away if I'm floating......"

Tao Li's words are not only beating Tao Dou, but also for Gao Zhuang. Let him understand Tao Dou's problem, which can be regarded as a preventive injection, so that he knows in his heart. With these words at the bottom, even if Tao Dou really can't stand this pain in the future, he won't be too embarrassed if he doesn't do it.

"Sister, don't you tear down the stage." Tao Dou was really anxious, patted his chest and shouted: "I have made a statement now, after I get on the ship to work, even if I die on the boat, I will resolutely not get off the boat." ”

"It's good to be ambitious, but don't say such unlucky things." Gao Zhuang hurriedly waved his hand, and then said with a smile: "What's more, there is still a one-month probation period." Whether he can survive or not depends on himself. ”

"I'm sure I can do it......" Tao Dou raised his eyebrows and vowed to die.

"Alright, you clean up and go back to the boat to find me." Gao Zhuang nodded and said: "I've been here for two or three days, and I'll be ready to go to sea in a few days, you have to be mentally prepared." ”

"No problem, I can leave now......" Tao Dou was in a hurry, not wanting to miss this opportunity.

"Don't worry, you can discuss it with your family first." Gao Zhuang smiled: "It's okay to stay for two more days, after all, after going to sea, it will take at least two or three months before you can return to Fuzhou." ”

While speaking, Gao Zhuang also said goodbye to Tao Tao, and then under the send-off of the Tao family, he went briskly with Wang Guan. After returning to the pier to board the boat, he left Langqi Island and returned to Fuzhou Pier shortly after.

On the way, Wang Guan suddenly smiled and said, "Brother Gao, are you a little disappointed?" ”

"What?"

Gao Zhuang was stunned, and then understood what Wang Guan meant, and after smiling, he also nodded and sighed: "Disappointment is inevitable, after all, Tao Dou said it so reasonably, it really makes me feel a little moved." It's a pity that I didn't expect it to be a fabricated story. ”

"Do you really think it's a made-up story?" Wang Guan asked rhetorically.

"What do you mean?"

Gao Zhuang frowned and said, "Are you suspicious that Uncle Tao and Tao Li lied?" ”

"I can't say for sure." Wang Guan smiled: "After all, you are not very familiar with their family, strictly speaking, you are still a stranger." Tao Dou has no mouth to hide, and he is sure to be willing to say anything. But Uncle Tao and Tao Li are more mature and steady, and they must also know the truth that they only talk about three points when they meet people. ”

"Besides, even if the two don't know, it doesn't necessarily mean that Tao Dou's grandfather is making up stories." Wang Guan groaned: "The story is not so easy to make up, it must be made reasonable, there are no obvious loopholes, and some references are definitely needed, so I suspect that this matter is six or seven points reliable." ”

"At the very least, there must be such a thing. The original form of the character may be the ancestor of the Tao family, or the ancestor of Grandma Tao Dou, or the deeds of a certain person, and then let Grandpa Tao Dou know, and then repeat it to Tao Dou. ”

While speaking, Wang Guan also said helplessly: "But it's a pity, all this is speculation, and there is no way to verify it." Otherwise, it's a very useful clue. ”

"It's okay." Gao Zhuang smiled: "Take your time." I'm not in a hurry......"

"Hmm."

After Wang Guan nodded, he didn't say anything more. After returning to the Fuzhou wharf, he also disembarked from the ship. As the main person in charge of the treasure tour, it's not good to be away for too long. In fact, there is nothing to do, the specific work of the touring exhibition, that can be replicated, just follow the step-by-step line. Mostly some parties, a bit not so easy to refuse.

So in the next two or three days, Wang Guan was like a butterfly, shuttling through the major restaurants. Deal with a wide variety of characters. There are government officials, there are business elites, and more are peers in the industry. This is a great opportunity to expand his network, and Wang Guan naturally will not miss it.

Besides, it's just a wine banquet, Wang Guan has a special ability, which can be called the reincarnation of the god of wine, and he is invincible in the wine field. In the past two or three days, many people have not remembered anything else, but for the huge amount of Wang Guan. That's impressive. And he warned himself more than once that he wouldn't fight for wine next time he was killed. Knowing that you can't do it, that's not called courage, but pure masochism.

In an instant. The exhibition in Fuzhou is coming to an end.

When he was about to leave, Wang Guan did not forget to say goodbye to Gao Zhuang. When he walked to the boat, he saw Tao Dou's smiling face, and obviously he had officially reported to the ship.

"Brother Wang, you're here."

See Wang Guan. Tao Dou also hurriedly signaled: "Brother Gao is in the cabin, I'll take you to ......"

"No, I'll just go myself. You're going to be busy with your own business. ”

Wang Guan smiled and nodded, and then walked to Gaozhuang's cabin. As the captain of the ship, Gao Zhuang's cabin must be large enough. At this time, he was not idle, he was looking at a nautical chart, as if he was thinking about where to go for salvage.

"Brother Wang, you're here."

At this time, Gao Zhuang heard the movement, looked up, and immediately smiled: "What, are you ready to go?" ”

"Well, the exhibition in Fuzhou is over, and I'm ready to rush to the next stop." Wang Guan smiled: "Come and say hello to you, but depending on the situation, you are also ready to set sail." ”

"That's right." Gao Zhuang admitted: "It's been more than ten days of rest, it's time to move your muscles." ”

"Where is the goal?" Wang Guan said curiously, China's sea area is relatively wide, and there are too many areas that can be salvaged. But whether you can get something or not is another matter.

"The sea near Wenzhou."

Gao Zhuang didn't hide it, and smiled directly: "The relationship has been dredged up, and we are allowed to salvage there." ”

"That's not bad." Wang Guan thought for a while, nodded and said: "In ancient times, even if Wenzhou was not an officially designated port, the smuggling business should be relatively prosperous, and there must be a lot of shipwrecks on the bottom of the sea." ”

"I think so too."

Gao Zhuang thought so: "The area of Fujian and Zhejiang, that was the most rampant place on the sea in ancient times. There are definitely more shipwrecks, but they are very troublesome to find. Because of the different undercurrents in the sea, it is easy to carry sediment and cover the boat. ”

"Uh-huh......"

Wang Guan agreed very much, and after a few words of relief, he suddenly found that next to the sea map on the table, there was actually a scroll, a scroll that looked a little familiar.

"What is this?" Wang Guan was a little curious.

"Paint."

At this time, Gao Zhuang smiled a little helplessly: "That dragon painting of the Tao family." ”

"What?"

Wang Guan was stunned, and hurriedly reached out to pick up the scroll, opened it carefully, and saw that the painting was indeed a giant dragon with teeth and claws, swimming among the waves. The dragon has a strong physique, sharp claws, and is full of ferocity.

For a moment, Wang Guan was surprised: "How did this painting get into your hands?" ”

"Tao Dou brought it, saying it was a gift for me." Gao Zhuang sighed: "But I very much suspect that this is his private decision, in fact, he did not get the consent of his family at all." ”

"It is very likely to ......" Wang Guan agreed, after all, the country is easy to change, and the nature is difficult to change. Tao Dou can't do such a thing. (To be continued......)
