043. Misfortune is not a one-way street
Guangzhou Sailor along the outer village wharf.
Wu Xin called several doctors in the vicinity, and in order to facilitate the delivery of medicine and tools, he also called a car. However, when I saw the more than 300 people, there were only two words to describe it - shock!
These more than 300 ragged and thin-skinned people were isolated by the rejection horse and Tie Bodhi on the field with their backs to the cliff within a radius of three or four feet, sitting or lying, snuggling up to each other, quiet without a single sound. Occasionally, there was a foul smell, which was blown away by a strong sea breeze. Not far away, on the high platform, there was a pitch-black cannon, facing the camp. Under the gloomy sky, there was a kind of despair.
There are more than a dozen small schools sitting around, and it is still a little strange to see that there are five or six people of their own. Luo Yunshi showed the paperwork, and the dozen or so people were even more strange.
"Yo, hey, what's going on?"
"Release? Is this telling us to release people? ”
Luo Yunshi looked at these little colonels, "I'm the owner of Xiangji, everyone, if these documents are okay, shouldn't you hand them over to me?" ”
The little colonel who brought them over on the side also shouted: "Don't look at the excitement, the general asked us to release them." Everyone is scattered, scattered, and there is no need to guard. He turned his head to Luo Yunshi and said, "Young Master Luo, I brought the place, these people are your business." However, there is a request from above, after all, this is a barracks, and within three days, the ship and the people will leave. Hehe, Luo Gongzi, three days, this is already a big face. ”
"I know, thank you." As he spoke, he stuffed a few coins of broken silver.
Xiao Xiao smiled, "Then Master Luo is busy, I won't bother." He turned his head and shouted to a few colleagues on the side: "Withdraw all this, release people, release people." Then he pointed to the cannon and shouted, "Whoever, take away this obnoxious thing." ”
After a while, the rejection horse and Tie Bodhi opened the opening, and the muzzle of the black hole also turned direction. However, the two or three hundred people who were circled together just silently watched the soldiers go about in silence, and still did not make a sound.
Luo Yunshi approached, the stench seemed to be blown away by the wind, exhaled, and said loudly: "Wang Shuigen, the first mate of the Yongjin, has arrived in Quanzhou, he is not dead, and he is now in the Huichun Hall Medical Hall." I am Luo Yunshi, the proprietor of Xiang Kee, and now, Xiang Kee has paid the ransom, and you go back to Quanzhou with me. ”
There was silence, and there seemed to be no response.
After a while, Luo Yunshi continued to shout: "Who is the captain of the Yongjin?" Captain of the Daikin? Captain Nikkin? I brought a doctor and medicinal herbs, and those who were seriously injured or sick could be treated first. ”
In the crowd, two people slowly stood up, one of whom could see that he was quite burly. "I'm the captain of the Daikin. Are you the proprietor of Cheung Kee? ”
"Yes."
"Is there anything to eat?"
Luo Yunshi was stunned. On the side, Wu Xin said loudly: "Yes, please wait for a while." Someone has already done it. After speaking, he said to Luo Yunshi, "Doctor Huang has already gone, it shouldn't take too long." ”
Indeed, it didn't take much time, this Dr. Huang also had some connections in the water division, and directly moved a few baskets of steamed buns, a few buckets of vegetable soup, and a few bowls directly from the water division's canteen.
Luo Yunshi asked the two captains to organize a few crew members who were in a slightly better condition to distribute food together. And the captain of the Yongjin, who didn't stand up, had several fractures, and a doctor was treating them.
Luo Yunshi walked up to Dr. Huang: "Dr. Huang, thank you." As he spoke, he handed over a tael of silver.
Dr. Huang excused: "No, no, Mr. Wu has given it." Very few owners will ransom the crew, and they are not in good condition, and they are not well treated, and they are afraid that many people will be in danger. Keep this money to save people. ”
After everyone had eaten and had their fill, the camp finally had a voice. At Luo Yunshi's request, Dr. Huang checked the two captains, but fortunately, there were no big problems with them.
Luo Yunshi took the two of them to the periphery, sat down and asked, "Do you know how many people are on your boat?" ”
The burly captain of the Dajin replied first: "There are a total of 150 people on my Dajin who are fully manned, and when they dock at the port of Guangzhou, there are still 147 people. I didn't allow them to jump into the sea to escape, the sea was too cold, the wind was too strong, and there was little luck in going into the sea. The hope of being able to live one day at a time. In the past month and ......, people have died every day, and eleven people have died on my Dajin. Counting the wounded, there should now be one hundred and thirty-six people. ”
Luo Yunshi nodded and asked, "What's your name?" ”
"Han Ayong."
"Good. Captain Han, I have a roster here, you can look at it, the missing ones are ticked out. ”
Luo Yunshi took out the roster and handed it to him. Han Atong took it and picked up the pen and hooked it.
"You're the captain of the Nikkin?" Luo Yunshi asked another sturdy man with a face full of furrows on the side.
"Yes, I'm Zhao Hai from the Rijin. The Nikin also went to sea at full capacity, but not long after going to sea, two crew members accidentally fell into the sea. When disembarking in Canton, there were one hundred and twenty-eight people. This month, this month, ....... Zhao Hai's voice choked, calmed down, and continued, "At the beginning, I still counted. I, I ......, and when I got to thirteen, I didn't count any more. Zhao Hai's tears welled up in his eyes. In the past few days, people have been carried out every day ....... ”
"I'll do my best, no more people will be less." Luo Yunshi said word by word.
Zhao Hai nodded and wiped away his tears, "Boss, I'll tick out the less." ”
After a while, Han Ayong returned the roster. "The owner, the worst should be the Yongjin. Their captain's name is Qi Bao, and they wanted to run away in the boat, but unfortunately they were discovered, so the captain was beaten the worst, and the crew of the ship jumped into the sea the most,"
Zhao Hai interjected: "I heard that Qi Bao was also caught once when he went to sea when he was young, and that time he jumped into the sea and escaped, and his uncle ....... He shook his head.
Luo Yunshi sighed, looking at these people in the camp, it is estimated that there should be less than a hundred people on the Yongjin. "Two captains, Luo has a reluctant request."
"Boss, you say."
"The sailor gave us three days to leave. When I came to Guangzhou, I didn't bring a crew with me. Look, is it possible to sail the ship to Quanzhou? If it doesn't work, it's okay to go to other terminals in Guangzhou, and I'll find a way. ”
Han Ayong looked at Zhao Hai, "Walking along the coast, it shouldn't be a big problem......
Zhao Hai thought for a while and said, "Crew, I don't know how many more can be used." To start the Nikkin Horn, at least 30 people are needed. ”
"In addition to personnel, we also need supplies. It takes at least three or four days to walk along the coast, and the supplies on board are gone. Han Ayong looked at Luo Yunshi.
"Supplies, can you handle it?"
Zhao Hai thought for a while and said, "I've been to Guangzhou a few times and know the place. ”
"How much does it cost to get three ships based on a ten-day supply?"
"Three?" Han Ayong shook his head, "Boss, the Yongjin can't reach Quanzhou." The ship was wrecked. Specifically, you may still have to ask Qi Bao. ”
"And, the owner, we have to determine the crew before we can know if the ship can sail to Quanzhou." Zhao Hai added.
Luo Yunshi nodded, "Then let's do it, you guys bring out the people who can be used on your own ship first." See how many there are, and then see what to do next. ”
The two glanced at each other and nodded, and Han Ayong asked again: "Boss, those wounded?" ”
"The wounded, I will take them back to Quanzhou by land."
"Boss, I think it's better to be as fast as the ship." Han Ayong suggested.
"Yes, the owner, let's see if we can drive the ship first, if we can open one, we can transport the wounded back to Quanzhou, so it is also stable."
**********
In the next two days, Luo Yunshi handed over everything related to the shipping to the two captains, and he didn't understand it anyway. Fortunately, there were more than 60 people who had no big problem, and they could barely drive the two ships back to Quanzhou. Qi Bao was too badly injured and still delirious. The two captains looked at the Yongjin and decided to use two ships to tow the Yongjin out of the wharf along the outer village.
On the contrary, there are not enough doctors, and there are too many wounded to deal with, Luo Yunshi made a temporary cameo as a doctor, and was actually greatly praised by Dr. Huang, saying that his handling of external injuries was professional enough.
Wu Xin was in charge of logistics, and Luo Yunshi simply handed over all the money to him. He set up a lot of tents not far from the sailors, and concentrated the wounded who were slightly injured and waited for the ship. Seriously injured people were slowly transferred to various medical centers.
In the early morning of the third day, a cry sounded outside Luo Yunshi's tent, "The owner, the owner, save my father, save him!" ”
Luo Yunshi rushed out of the tent and saw a sixteen or seventeen-year-old boy, hugging a man who couldn't tell his age and crying, surrounded by a circle of people. The man couldn't feel his pulse anymore. "Where's Dr. Huang?"
Someone on the side replied: "It seems that Captain Qi is no longer good, and Dr. Huang is in a hurry to return to the medical hall." ”
"What's going on?" Wu Xin put on a dress and hurried out.
The big boy was still crying, and the person next to him replied: "It was nothing, but I started to have diarrhea yesterday, and suddenly it didn't work." "Yes, there are a lot of diarrhea in the camp today."
Luo Yunshi was taken aback, "How many people are there?" ”
"More than half. I guess what you eat, right? I don't know who replied.
Luo Yunshi looked at Wu Xin, Wu Xin frowned, as if recalling, and finally shook his head. He said to Luo Yunshi, "I'll go and see which doctor is there." ”
Luo Yunshi sighed and asked the big boy, "What's your name?" ”
The big boy didn't answer, just cried. The one on the side replied: "His name is Ye Yangsheng, and his father's name is Ye Aqiang." We're all from the Yongjin. ”
Luo Yunshi raised his head and said to everyone, "Please do me a favor and carry him to my tent and wait for the doctor to come." As he spoke, he grabbed the answerer and asked, "Are you a sailor of the Yongjin?" What is it called? ”
"My name is Deng Long, and I'm a sailor on the Yongjin."
"You take me to the camp and see the people who have diarrhea."
Deng Long nodded and took Luo Yunshi with him.
