Quietly pinching the walnut-sized thing in his hand, the nine monkeys held the half-kneeling cook who was coughing and wheezing, and easily stuffed the walnut-sized thing back into his arms.

In the hands of the sneaking characters in Sijiu City, this thing to attract people's eyes and create chaos has already appeared in the Tang Dynasty, and it is called 'Miaozi' in the jargon, and it is also called 'Bangzier'. There is the owner who has probably heard of the name of this thing, and after arranging it with false rumors, Leng just said that this thing is a fairy treasure that can perform tricks - slamming it on the ground, and after hearing a thunderclap and a puff of white smoke disperse, the stealth figure who was still standing in front of him has disappeared!

In fact, it is open to the open, this thing is not unusual at all, the left is just a street child when playing like to drop the cannon, smash the cannon, when loading gunpowder has more weight, the use of the common fine sand, but carefully hold the glass ballast smashed out of the end, piggyback hand and then take the soaked tung oil after the dry cardboard shell wrapped, a throw out is a dry day thunder movement!

There are also those who are more exquisite, and they have to find the apprentices who are famous for making firecrackers and fireworks in Sijiu City, and the old Chen family of the 'Zhentian Palace', who is famous for making firecrackers and fireworks, and spend a lot of money to mix some other things in the 'seedlings'. The walnut-sized 'seedling' throws it out and blew it up, and the piggyback can still smoke and burst into flames, and the smoke drills into the nose, and it doesn't take a bowl of tea to do it, and no matter how strong the man is, he has to collapse to the ground like mud!

As for the master in the old Chen family's account in the 'Earthquake Palace', the big shopkeeper in charge of the house said - the things made by the old Chen family have always added a festive atmosphere to people, and there is absolutely no reason to make things and take them out to hurt people! Therefore, it doesn't matter how much money you take, who you invite to come to your door, and you have things like hurting people and adding to the blockage. None of them!

There is a saying that scarcity is precious, but if it is counted in Sijiu City, it is just a half-hung apprentice who was driven out by the old Chen family of the 'Earthquake Palace' can be this high-grade 'seedling', even if it is 365 days a year, there is a certain number of things that can be made. If you put these high-grade 'seedlings' into the hands of the men who are sneaking around in Sijiu City, it will really be a sprinkling of pepper in the sea - just seeing the pepper noodles and throwing them in. But I can't see a spicy fish!

It's such a rare thing, tonight in this German good hall, a guy asked Yan Xu to throw out more than a dozen, regardless of the side, just counting the price of accumulating these 'seedlings', then you can know that Yan Xu has made a lot of money, and he is determined to get the thing he is thinking about in his head!

Half-truthfully helping the half-choked cook slap his back, the nine monkeys stomped around Yan Xu, who was constantly throwing 'seedlings' into various houses, but his mouth was still half-silly and shouted to the cook: "Master." What's wrong with you, this is? How come you can bake a foreigner's hanging oven cake and fry the hearth?! ”

Coughing and shaking his head, the cook, whose face was splashed with black smoke from the explosion of the oven, shouted breathlessly: "Where the do I know where the is I toasted and fried, you kid don't talk nonsense"

Seeing that Yan Xu had already rushed to the side of the two-story building, the nine monkeys half-truthfully picked up the cook who had finally taken a few breaths: "Then what should we do?" Is it running or fighting fires? ”

Confused with his eyes, the cook looked at the smoke and fire in the whole house, and the half-grown children who were screaming and running around, and suddenly jumped to his feet and shouted: "What the hell is still asking me? Why don't you hurry up and put out the fire?! If we burn down the good hall, our rice ruts will really be gone."

Pretending to look back at the room that was still smoking, the nine monkeys shrunk their necks as if they were quite scared: "Then let's have a basin and bucket." But I can't stand the call when so many houses are on fire, right? Do you want to open the gate and wait for the water dragon team to come? ”

Reach out and slap it the head. The cook, who was dizzy from the bombing and smoking, suddenly jumped up: "It's really open the door and open the door."

Stretching out his hand to support the stumbling cook, the nine monkeys secretly worked hard under their feet, half supporting, half pushing and fooling the constantly screaming cook to the door, quickly helped the cook remove the heavy deadbolt, and then moved the two top door bars behind the door aside!

The gate had just opened, and there was a street at both ends of the door. There was already a series of crunching brass bells. As the crisp sound of the copper bell got closer and closer, it was obvious that the sound of wooden wheels rolling on the street on the rack car carrying heavy loads also clearly reached the ears of the nine monkeys!

But at this moment, all the lights in the hall were suddenly extinguished. For a moment, there were half-grown children running around like flies in the courtyard of Shantang. and those handymen who had just brought wooden barrels and copper basins in their hands, suddenly let out a series of exclamations: "It's amazing, the electric light line is called burned."

"But don't mess around, it'll electrocute you!"

"Oh, what are you doing with an empty basin? Fetch water! ”

"Where are you going? It's smoking, but where are the flames?"

Pinching his sharp voice, the nine monkeys picked up a large broom placed by the door and stuffed it into the cook's hand, and shouted playfully: "But don't burn that small building and burn the small building, Doctor Ke can't spare us!" ”

There was suddenly a big broom in his hand, and he also heard the screams of the nine monkeys in his ears, and the cook, who had not fully recovered until now, suddenly stumbled towards the two-story building in the good hall, and his mouth also opened his voice and shouted: "Du Ma Yoer will be gone if he doesn't have a meal to fight the fire."

Although the scene in the good hall was a pot of porridge in the blink of an eye, none of the German doctors ran around, but they all gathered next to the two-story building, and the Luger pistol in their hands was also bright and bright, and a pair of eyes swept towards the boundaries that were easy for people to slip into.

And in front of the foyer of the two-story building. Schroeder, who was also clutching a pistol in his hand, waved his arms and shouted at his companion in German: "No one is allowed to approach the laboratory!" If there is a forcible intruder, you can shoot! ”

With Schroeder's shouts and the sound of pistol loading one after another, Klinder also grabbed a pistol and rushed to the foyer of the small building, pointing at the brass bell that was getting louder and louder at the open gate of Shantang: "Who opened the door?" Immediately close the gate and forbid anyone to walk around"

He shook his head vigorously. Schroeder raised his hand and pointed to several large wooden carts that had already appeared faintly at the gate of Shantang: "It's too late!" Those damn water dragons have arrived! Hell, that's a gang of robbers who take advantage of the fire! ”

As soon as the words fell, a loud shout came from the gate of the good hall: "Is there a master?" Come out and say it works! Ma Yuer, our masters came to help you fight the fire in the middle of the night, why didn't anyone who knew anything about people? ”

With a blue face, Schroeder reluctantly pinned the pistol behind his waist, turned his head and whispered to a few companions beside him: "Take out all the money you are carrying!" Whether it's Dayang or Mark, give it all to me! ”

Listening to Schroeder's obviously commanding tone, several German doctors with pistols in their hands did not ask much, and stuffed some of the oceans and banknotes they were carrying into Schroeder's hands. Then I watched Schroeder rush towards the gate of Shantang!

Not to mention the natives of Sijiu City, even Schroeder, who came all the way from Germany, has long been able to hear the cocoon of the famous name of the water dragon team in Sijiu City!

In the early years of Sijiu City, there was no official water dragon team at all, and all of them were water clubs and water bureaus organized by wealthy merchants and chambers of commerce out of their own pockets. On weekdays, there are firefighters patrolling the streets, and as soon as they see a place on fire, they will immediately ring the gong in their hands and beckon the water dragon team pushing the waterwheel to come and put out the fire!

A four-nine city in Kenuo. Almost ninety percent of the houses are made of bricks and wood, and once they catch fire, they will burn down the company camp. Relying on the water dragon team set up by those chambers of commerce out of their own pockets to support this fateful scene, discerning people will know what it means to be a drop in the bucket at a glance.

It is under this scene that has to be managed, the government of the Republic of China has finally set up an official firefighting team. There are only about 200 people in total, and the household belongings that can be taken out are two foreign water trucks. It's really time to be in a hurry, and you have to rely on those big wooden waterwheels to save your life!

Moreover, the firefighters in this firefighting team are doing a desperate job, but it is really difficult to support their families in Sijiu City with the few small dollars they take! Coupled with the rules of the Republic of China government, no officials are not corrupt, and nothing is corrupt. Naturally, the upper beam is not correct and the lower beam is crooked!

Seeing that everyone's house is on fire, the fire brigade and the water dragon team are coming very quickly, and the copper bells shaking all the way are known to the world!

On the scene in Sijiu City, this road is called gagging! Let's make noise first, so that the big guy knows that the fire dragon team rushed to the burning realm as soon as the fire started. The official face can naturally be reasonable, and no one can gossip in private!

But when they got to the ground, whether it was a wooden cart loaded with water or a foreign water truck, they all stopped the car unhurriedly, and then came out to speak, and looked for the owner in front of the scene of the raging fire.

The words are also said simply - the official salary cannot support people, and the brothers below do not expect this salary to live! If you are sensible, then why do you have to take out a few, which can be regarded as a reward for the hard work of these brothers?

There is the sensible one, and immediately there is as much as there is in the waist, and the bag is stuffed into the hand of the man who spoke. If this is not enough, the shops in the neighborhood, and the friends who have saved over the years will quickly borrow and turn around, and the masters of the water dragon team have always taken enough money to do things - only now they don't owe!

Not to mention the soup talk that there will be a good reward in the future, such a big fire will burn down, and even thousands of belongings will become a piece of flying ashes, and in the future, maybe the big boss in front of him will become a general!

At that time, you let the men of the water dragon team go to the city gate and wait for the few eldest sons you asked for as rewards?

When the money was in hand and the amount was sufficient, the men of the water dragon team lazily grabbed the water spray pump from the frame car, and sprayed water to the burning place with a little or no time, but the accuracy was 108,000 miles away, and all of them were sprayed to the shops and houses next door that were not on fire!

If someone comes out to block the crossing, the men of the water dragon team immediately pick a pick-okay, you say you don't spray water, then let's rest!

Seeing this scene, the owner who was on fire had to rummage his waist bag again, and he had to bow to the neighbor next door with it, just begging all the high-ranking masters in the neighborhood to help break a few expenses, so that the masters of the water dragon team could extinguish the fire, so that they could grab half a bowl of scraps from this Zhu Rong's hands!

It's easy to wait for the flames to disappear, and there are only a few cigarette butts left in the burning realm, and the masters of the water dragon team suddenly come to their senses. A group of people tied their arms to separate the others from the fire boundary, and kept saying that they were afraid that there would be a dark fire again, and they had to wait for the masters of the water dragon team to clean up the fire, so that they could enter the inside!

The other group was not ambiguous, and they had all kinds of household items in their hands, such as hooks and axes, and rushed into the smoke of the fire with a roar. Regardless of whether there is really a dark fire around him, the first thing he has to do is to run to the almost burned cage cabinet.

Under the beating and smashing of the family in his hand, the gold, silver, pearls, jade, and valuable things that the owner was busy running for his life did not care about the gold, silver, pearls, and valuable things, and naturally all went into the pockets of the men of the Water Dragon Team. There is also the master with a lively brain, who picks up the ground that has been burned to the point that he can't see the shape, and nine times out of ten he can find the gold and silver lumps that have been burned and then condensed!

That is, seven or eight years ago, there was a fire in the Quanye field outside the front door, and the men of the water dragon team picked up gold, silver, pearls and jade in the fire, and stuffed the fire jacket they were wearing into the bulging bag, and even the aisle had to grit their teeth and move forward, which was really taking advantage of the fire to rob and make a windfall!

If you let such a group of masters who only have silver in their eyes enter the gate of the good hall, even if there is really nothing unsightly in this good hall, after this group of masters tossed down, then

Then it's better to let Shantang be burned again!

Holding a handful of oceans and Deutsche marks, Schroeder rushed to the gate of Shantang almost at the speed of charging on the battlefield, and stopped sideways in front of the half-old man who was wearing a crooked copper hat and had just a cigarette in his mouth, and stuffed the ocean and Deutsche Mark in his hand into the arms of the half-old man, and shouted in a low voice: "Take this money and leave here with your people!" This is the German Charity Hall, we can take care of our own affairs, and we don't need your interference! ”

Without looking at the handful of oceans and Deutsche marks that Schroeder stuffed into his arms, the half-old man in the crooked copper hat sneered, raised his hand and lit the cigarette in the corner of his mouth, took a puff, and then shouted to Schroeder in a loud voice: "Hey, you German man, are you generous enough?" See, more than 20 waterwheels outside Chongwen Gate have all arrived here, and people have also come over to the small 200, so you will reward these few? This is what you did when you left Germany to send Germany to call Hanako, isn't it? (To be continued.) )
