Chapter Ninety-Four: The Wedding
Chapter Ninety-Four: The Wedding
Everyone was a little embarrassed, Zhai Xiaoshan was reminded of the tragic past, and couldn't help but burst into tears, choked up and couldn't speak.
Wanqiu looked at Zhai Xiaoshan, who had been crying, took out a handkerchief from his sleeve and handed it to him. Zhai Xiaoshan was a little surprised, and looked at Wanqiu at a loss, and then at Zhao Zizhong.
Zhao Zizhong nodded to him, and Zhai Xiaoshan took the handkerchief and held it tightly in his hand. Wanqiu's face was slightly red, revealing a light smile, and she said softly: "Mr. Zhao, the slave family is also a hard-working person, who was abducted by traffickers since he was a child and sold to the land of fireworks. I don't even know where I live. The current name is still given by the godmother, and I don't know what my surname is. ”
She looked at Zhai Xiaoshan, her eyes were full of pity, and she said: "Although the slave family was bought and given to you by the head of the Cui family, and you can't control your own destiny, I don't feel sorry. We are all ill-fated people, and since we have been arranged by God to become husband and wife, it must be a destined marriage in a previous life. The slave family will be a virtuous wife in the future, give birth to children for you, and take care of you for the rest of your life. ”
The people in the room were all moved when they heard Wanqiu's words. Two girls were still wiping tears from their eyes. Du Da Lei patted Zhai Xiaoshan's shoulder, "Boy, you are so blessed, marrying such a good daughter-in-law makes Lao Tzu a little jealous of you." ”
Zhai Xiaoshan looked at Wanqiu with some excitement, and said in a trembling voice: "I~ I'm very stupid, I can't, I can't say good things." But I swear, I will be good to you in the future, otherwise there will be five thunderstorms in the sky! ”
Na Zhe saw Fang Juniang wiping her tears, so he walked over and grabbed her hand, shook it lightly, and whispered: "Don't cry, I will be good to you in the future." ”
Fang Juniang nodded and grabbed Na Zhe's clothes. Zhao Zi looked at the atmosphere in the room a little sadly, so he said loudly: "Everyone is happy, we are here to congratulate a couple who are about to have a happy event." Let's look into the wedding and see what is missing. ”
Du Dalei had been observing Fu Hongyu carefully, and saw that although she didn't speak, her eyes were red, and then he lowered his head and sat silently. He thought to himself, this little woman is also very emotional, not exactly an iceberg beauty. It seems that Lao Tzu is going to use the eighteen tricks of picking up girls, and he will definitely be able to chase her in the future.
Zhao Zizhong and everyone scrutinized the wedding, wrote down some omissions with notes, and took the brothers out to leave.
Back outside the dormitory, he said to Zhai Xiaoshan: "Xiaoshan, when I see Steward Cui tomorrow morning, I will ask him to prepare all the things he needs." You work hard tomorrow, but you still train normally with the players. In the evening we will hold a wedding for you, and then we will give you three days off so that you can spend time with the bride. ”
Zhai Xiaoshan hurriedly said: "Chief, I don't have to take a vacation, otherwise there will be no one to train with the escort team." ”
Zhao Zizhong shook his head, "It's okay, I'll let Hu Shuiyang keep an eye on the construction site tomorrow, and then I can lead the team to train." You can take a vacation with peace of mind. ”
-------------------- --------------- ----------------
When he got up in the morning, Zhao Zi saw Cui Zhaorong again, arranged the wedding, and brought the craftsmen and homeless people to the construction site.
He explained the essentials of construction to the craftsmen, and began to draw lines according to the drawings, and asked the masons to build the walls of the blockhouse with stones. Wei Hongye sent people to send more than 20 barrels of cement, which should be enough.
The masons tried to pick out stones of the same size and began to build the wall. The handymen brought sand, mixed it with cement, and mixed it with water to mix the cement mortar.
Zhao Zizhong took the drawings and explained the precautions of construction to Hu Shuiyang in detail, and told him that he would replace Zhai Xiaoshan tomorrow and go to train the escort team, so that Hu Shuiyang could keep an eye on the construction site.
Hu Shuiyang was a little unconfident, and he excused himself: "Mr. Zhao, I'm afraid I'm not competent, right?" Why don't I train the convoy and you'll be here to supervise the work? ”
Zhao Zizhong said with a smile: "Lao Hu, I believe in you, as long as you follow the drawings, there will be no problem." If something happens, it's mine, and besides, I don't care about it at all, I will come to see it every morning and evening, and solve the problems that arise in the construction with you. You can do it boldly! ”
Hu Shuiyang had no choice but to agree, and then seriously asked for advice on the issues that should be paid attention to, and the two discussed while watching the scene, and the time soon reached noon. The walls are already half a meter above the ground, and the craftsmen have initially mastered the method of using cement to build the wall, and it is estimated that the progress will be faster and faster in the future.
Zhao Zizhong said goodbye to Hu Shuiyang and prepared to go to the bow and crossbow workshop. He walked through the valley to the bow and crossbow workshop. It's a much bigger place than the last time he came, and there are more people, and everyone is busy.
When Du Dalei saw Zhao Zizhong, he immediately ran over. He smiled and said, "Welcome leaders to inspect the work, isn't it good here?" Ask the leader to give a rating. ”
"What do you say? You'd better get down to business. I ask you, how many bed crossbows have been produced? ”
"Boss, at this stage, I am mainly establishing an assembly line, straightening out the production process, dividing the production of bed crossbows into more than a dozen processes, and setting up 14 production teams. Each team has a special person in charge, and records the number of production every day, and assesses it together at the end of the month. The team with a high output will be given a bonus, and the team with a decrease in production will have their salary deducted and the team leader will be dismissed. ”
Zhao Zi nodded emphatically and said, "You have done a good job here, which is worthy of praise." When do you estimate when you will be able to produce a qualified bed crossbow? ”
"It should be soon, now each team is speeding up the production of various parts, and a lot of them have been made, and after passing the inspection, the overall assembly will be carried out, and it is estimated that it will not take a few days."
"Now that Cui Daoshu has got three warships, he lacks long-range weapons. The sooner you get the bed crossbow, the sooner we can install it on the ship. The convoy will be able to go to sea for training as soon as possible. ”
Du Dalei's eyes lit up, patted his chest and said: "Boss, I must work hard to produce a bed crossbow as soon as possible, and I still have to go to sea to hunt whales!" How exciting that is! ”
Zhao Zizhong laughed, "You keep working hard!" I support you to go whaling, it's a great way to train the navy and also increase our income. It's a win-win-win-win thing. ”
------------------- ---------------------- ------------------
At night, the cafeteria is full of red lanterns of different sizes, which Na Zhe made with the students, and it is regarded as a handicraft class. The children were so happy that dozens of lanterns were made in one afternoon.
Zhai Xiaoshan was wearing a red robe and stood stupidly at the door of the canteen, greeting the people who came to the wedding banquet. The squad leaders of several escort teams helped entertain the guests, and there were already more than thirty people sitting in the cafeteria, all of whom were the backbone of the island. Everyone gathered in small circles and talked about it.
Zhao Zizhong came to the door of the cafeteria with his brothers, and Zhai Xiaoshan hurriedly stepped forward to greet him and bowed deeply to everyone. Zhao Zizhong helped him up, "Xiaoshan, you don't have to be like this. Today you are the bridegroom's official, go and entertain other guests, we can do whatever we want. ”
Zhai Xiaoshan hurriedly said: "I thank you gentlemen for attending my wedding, you must have a few more drinks later." ”
Everyone agreed, Du Dalei took a huge box and said to Zhai Xiaoshan: "Boy, this is a gift from our brother, guess what?" ”
Zhai Xiaoshan looked at the box, shook his head and said, "I'm a stupid person, my brain is not bright, don't let me guess." ”
Everyone laughed, and Wei Hongye said, "Okay, tell him directly." ”
Du Dalei opened the box, and inside was a crossbow, and dozens of crossbow arrows were placed next to it. He said to Zhai Xiaoshan: "This crossbow is made by the chief master of our bow and crossbow workshop, with a long range and great power. Boy, I'll give it to you, I hope you use this crossbow well and make more credit, we won't hesitate to reward it. ”
Zhai Xiaoshan was very excited, gently touched the crossbow body with his hand, then bowed to Du Dalei, and said: "Mr. Du, I will work hard in the future to live up to the expectations of all gentlemen." ”
Zhao Zi said gently: "Okay, today is your big day, let's go in, you can welcome the guests here." ”
The brothers entered the cafeteria, and everyone came over to say hello. When Zhao Zizhong saw Guo Jintao, he pulled him aside and asked with a smile: "Old Guo, tell me about the training in the past two days!" ”
Guo Jin said happily: "Mr. Zhao, according to your orders, I can toss those landlubbers miserably." But I admire them, they are all good guys! No matter how uncomfortable it was, they gritted their teeth and persevered, and no one quit. And they are very disciplined, never running around on the boat, and they look like they have undergone strict training. ”
Zhao Zizhong said with relief: "It seems that the hard work of the past few months has not been in vain!" Something has finally come to fruition. Lao Guo, I gave Zhai Xiaoshan three days of marriage leave, and I will lead the team to go to sea for training tomorrow. You go back and think about it, tomorrow find a small island that is uninhabited, we will throw the team members on it, do not give them food and water, and let them find a way to survive on the island for seven days on their own. ”
Guo Jintao was a little puzzled and asked, "Can this work?" Nothing will happen, right? ”
Zhao Zizhong said confidently: "Don't worry, there will be no problems." Most of them are from homeless backgrounds, and they are very good at finding food, and this kind of training is to test people's ability to survive in an unfamiliar environment. ”
Guo Jintao agreed, and began to reminisce about the nearby islands. Zhao Zi saw him thinking again, and left. Cui Zhaorong walked over and said with a smile: "Mr. Zhao, everyone is here, and you can start the ceremony." ”
"Then let's start, I'm hungry, waiting for the wine!"
Cui Zhaorong laughed, and after a while, he said, "Mr. Zhao, please go and officiate at the wedding." After all, you are the highest status person on the island. ”
Zhao Zizhong shook his head, "I'd better forget it, you let Na Zhe and Du Dalei preside, the two of them can enliven the atmosphere the most." ”
