Chapter 201: Yin Xiu
Said, Osaka. It is said to be the second largest city in Benben, an important industrial and commercial city, a water and land transportation center, and a famous historical ancient city. Located in the southwestern part of Honshu Island, on the Osaka Plain on both sides of the lower reaches of the Yodo River, and bordering Osaka Bay, it covers an area of 208 square kilometers. For a long time, with the advantage of good river and sea convergence, it has been the turnover center of domestic goods, China, and North Korea cargo logistics.
On April 15, 1912, Chen Liqing and his entourage finally arrived at this city after a week's voyage. Chen Liqing has never understood the history of modern times, nor does he know how the modern history has developed. After arriving in Osaka, Chen Liqing found that the gap between China and Yuben is still very large.
Although it is only the early 20th century, this city already has a model of a modern city, transportation, urban appearance, and people's spiritual outlook, just like Yanjing and Nanjing in China's seventies and eighties, full of a simple, clean and high-spirited taste. If there were such cities in China, Chen Liqing might be happy, but after the thorough reform of the Meiji Restoration, at this time, the book was considered to have entered the track of rapid development in advance, and the more it developed, the more anxious Chen Liqing became.
There is no way, people say that as early as 1868, Ben began a top-down, comprehensive and thorough reform, after decades of development in a generation, first won China in the First Sino-Japanese War, and then won against Russia, and became a complete power in East Asia. These rely on solid development, and trying to catch up with them all at once is basically a fool's dream. Looking at this book more closely, he found that he wanted to develop China on his own, and it was definitely not something that he could catch up with overnight.
Stimulated, Chen Liqing quickly put away his unnecessary sighs and began his arrangement in earnest.
Of course, at his current age, he can't speak, so he can only wait for Yangshuzhuang, Wakas and others to arrange all the matters of their trading fleet.
Fortunately, at this time, the development of the Osaka terminal was already perfect, and under the hard work of Yangshuzhuang and Wakas, the cargo of these ships was also unloaded and temporarily placed in the rented dock warehouse. And their group basically did not attract the attention of others, because there were many merchant ships from various countries that came to Osaka, and although they came with vegetables in a group of people, although it was a little special, as long as they had money, some of them would not pay much attention to them.
Besides, at this time, they got the British flag through Cheng Bijun's Malaysian father, and the registration also said that they were British ships, although I was curious about their group, but I didn't have the courage to provoke them for the time being. However, Chen Liqing brought a lot of vegetables, and when reviewing the tariffs, they encountered some small problems.
Because during this period, there were no imported vegetables, and the goods that came and went were either ores or various raw materials, and they had not yet encountered a precedent for real vegetables. Fortunately, Vacas, a foreigner, came forward, and those who said that they did not dare to offend much, according to the usual tariff rate, they took their money and let them pass, and did not attract attention.
After all kinds of goods were arranged, Chen Liqing did not arrange things for the first time, but gave everyone a day off. Seven days of sailing, others are not he has martial arts, one by one needs to rest down-to-earth, and when the rest is enough, this is good to work for him.
Everyone went to rest, Chen Liqing couldn't be idle alone, so he casually talked to Yangshuzhuang and Wakas, and he took care of himself and walked around Osaka. Before he didn't know about the various markets in Osaka, Chen Liqing naturally had to explore it slowly by himself.
Especially the vegetables, grains and fruits brought this time, he has great hopes for them, and naturally wants to find the market as soon as possible. As for visiting the current Osaka alone, Chen Liqing is naturally not afraid of martial arts.
Yin Xiu has been coming to Osaka for more than a year, but after coming to Osaka for more than a year, she is not here to study, but to work, or to put it another way, she accompanied her younger brother to take refuge in Yuben. Because a year ago, her younger brother was angry and accidentally killed the son of a local landlord, and in order to escape for their lives and escape responsibility, they were introduced by a relative to board the passenger ferry to Dongdu.
It's just that when they actually came to Yueben, they found out that she had been fooled again. The uncle who originally promised them to introduce them to a lucrative and good job actually changed his face as soon as he arrived in Yuben, and actually wanted to sell Yin Xiu to the Yiji Museum to be a kabuki, and buy his younger brother to the dock as a coolie.
This is just leaving the wolf's den and entering the tiger's den.
The two naturally disagreed, and tried their best to resist, but they were not able to resist the so-called uncle at that time, and in the end they were sold to the dance hall as an artist, and her brother was also sold to the dock as a coolie. In those days in the Art Gallery, Yin Xiu received good training and learned to speak. During that period, it was some light in Yin Xiu's darkness. But the good times didn't last long, and one day after the training, she was finally taken by a drunk big man who wanted to forcibly take her body. Fortunately, at that time, her brother finally arrived in time, not only beat the big man, but also escaped from the art hall with her. The two eventually tossed and turned, and when they arrived in Osaka, they wanted to leave Samoto by boat.
However, the ticket was a bit expensive, and the two could not afford such a large amount of ferry ticket costs, so they had to settle down temporarily in Osaka, working and saving money at the same time. It's just that how easy it is for two Chinese to live in the lower class of Yuben, in addition to living expenses and rent, they haven't even scraped together the money for a ferry ticket for a year.
On the contrary, sometimes, because Yin Xiuchang is not bad, he is often teased by guests and even violated by the boss when he is working. However, fortunately, there is her younger brother, and whenever Yin Xiu is about to be violated, her younger brother will jump out and teach those lustful bosses a hard lesson. As a result, Yin Xiu often changes jobs, and her younger brother often consumes their few savings because of fights.
And today, maybe Yin Xiu is too beautiful, even if she is wearing old clothes and simple clothes, she still can't hide her beauty and figure.
While she was washing the dishes, she suddenly had a bad premonition.
"Old, boss!" She immediately turned her head, but as soon as she turned her head, she saw the ugly old face that appeared in front of her. This face is familiar to her, it is the owner of this restaurant. At this time, the lewd man actually stretched out his hand, and it seemed that he wanted to hug her from behind, and Yin Xiu was so frightened that he almost broke the plate on the spot.
"Xiaoxiu, what's wrong with you?" The boss is a middle-aged man who has been on the top, and when he saw that the trick was not achieved, he actually changed his expression.
"Boss, I, I'm fine, I'm fine." Yin Xiu hurriedly shook his head, and then hurriedly said, "Don't worry, boss, I will definitely finish washing these dishes as soon as possible." ”
"Well, then Xiaoxiu, wash it quickly." The obscene middle-aged man didn't say anything, and still stood there looking at Yin Xiu.
Yin Xiu looked at him and wanted to open her mouth to drive away, but she didn't have the courage to do so. Trembling slightly, Yin Xiu only turned around slowly, ready to continue washing the dishes.
It's just that this time Yin Xiu is very uncomfortable, she clearly knows what this obscene boss will do to her after she turns around, but she can't resist. With his back to the lewd man, Yin Xiu's back was trembling. There is no way, sometimes women are under pressure from all sides in order to work and live for a living.
Seeing that the Chinese employee was still very obedient and turned around, the lewd man's eyes narrowed involuntarily again, and he rubbed his hands, the lewd man had long wanted to eat this beautiful and cute stunner, and today he finally had a chance. The man stretched out his hand and approached Yin Xiu slowly, slowly.
At this time, Yin Xiu clearly felt the danger again, gritted his teeth, Yin Xiu turned around again, and suddenly changed the topic while the groping pig hand didn't touch him: "Boss, this month's salary, when will you pay it, the landlady has urged us several times, and if we don't pay the rent, my brother and I will be kicked out again." ”
At the critical moment, Yin Xiu once again stopped the lewd man.
A trace of anger suddenly flashed on the lewd man's face, but after listening to Yin Xiu's words, he laughed again, and smiled very obscenely: "It's okay, Xiaoxiu, after you wash these dishes, I will pay you." ”
His body trembled again, gritted his teeth, and Yin Xiu nodded: "Okay, thank you boss." With that, she could only turn around and reach out to enter the sink again. At the same time, a strong sourness struck, and Yin Xiu hurriedly closed his eyes and stopped his tears.
In the end, her resistance had no effect, her waist stiffened, and Yin Xiu knew that a pair of salty pig hands were still on her waist.
She gritted her teeth and didn't say anything, but a silent tear fell into the sink. She continued to move, and a plate was quickly washed by her. At the same time, the hand on his waist couldn't help but tremble when he saw that the stunner did not resist, and then he began to slowly want to touch it.
"Don't!" Yin Xiu finally made a move, holding the salty pig hand, she bit her lip, and the grievances in her heart once again made her eyes sour.
"Xiaoxiu, don't you want your salary?" The owner of this groping pig hand made a fearless sound.
Yin Xiu's hand couldn't help but loosen, and when he saw it, the salty pig hand wanted to be in place in one step and quickly lifted up.
"Don't." Yin Xiu still grabbed the salty pig hand accurately again.
"Do you want to sleep on the street with your brother?" The owner of the groping pig's hand, spoke again.
Yin Xiu's eyes closed, and a line of tears flowed down again.
"Hey, hey." The salty pig hand tried hard again, trying to break free from the stunner's hand, but Yin Xiu suddenly shouted involuntarily: "Yin Li! ”
The next moment, the salty pig's hand shook violently, and he suddenly turned around: "There, didn't that guy tell me to let people block it?" "The lewd man knows very well that this stunner has a strong younger brother, and several times he wanted to eat this stunner, but he was ruthlessly destroyed, and several times he was also blocked and threatened by Yin Li several times, for this younger brother, he has long had a shadow and defense in his heart.
"What? What did you do to my brother? Yin Li is Yin Xiu's only closest person, and when he heard the lewd man say this involuntarily, Yin Xiu immediately turned around.
"Hehe, that guy disturbs our good things every time, I know he will come to pick you up on time every day, so just in case, I asked Mikawa to do me a little favor and let that kid do more things. Don't worry, I didn't treat your brother like that. The lewd man finally showed his perverted appearance, and as he spoke, his hand finally couldn't help but touch Yin Xiu's face openly.
"Don't!"
Yin Xiu finally felt a sense of urgency and hurriedly retreated.
"Haha, Xiaoxiu, don't resist, serve me obediently, I will definitely pay you." The lewd man rubbed his hands and approached Yin Xiu. And Yin Xiu has no way to retreat at all, and there is already a dishwasher behind him.
"Don't, don't." Looking at the lewd man, Yin Xiu's tears couldn't stop flowing down. And Yin Xiu, who is so weak, looks at the lewd man even more with the surname of a beast.
"Haha, it's okay, Xiaoxiu, I'll let you reach the top ......" The lewd man rushed over directly and hugged Yin Xiu heavily.
"Don't, don't!" Yin Xiu also began to struggle like never before, and broken things such as plates and bowls soon came out of the kitchen.
"You bastard, let go of my sister!"
However, at this moment, there was a sudden burst of shouting in the kitchen, and then the lewd man just turned his head, and when his eyes touched, he was punched heavily.
"Yin Li!"
"Sister!"
All of a sudden, it was put on this lewd man, and Yin Li hurriedly grabbed Yin Xiu. Just seeing that the old lady was violated by this beast again, the anger on Yin Li's face couldn't be hidden.
"I'll kill you!" Yin Li stepped forward again.
"Boss!"
However, at this time, several men rushed in the kitchen, and when they saw Yin Li rushing towards their boss, several people hurriedly greeted them. In just a moment, the small space of the kitchen began to emit all kinds of fighting sounds. Although Yin Li is only a sixteen-year-old boy now, he has been a coolie all year round, and he has a sense of fighting and fighting, and soon several people are out of the kitchen.
"Sister...... You brute, don't bully my sister, I'll kill you! ”
"Don't fight, don't fight, I'm willing, I'm willing to serve you!"
It's just that soon, Yin Li was only one person after all, and he was quickly knocked to the ground by several people, and blood was beaten. Seeing that the little brother was beaten like this, Yin Xiu hurriedly screamed.
"Hit, hit me!" The lewd man spat out blood, but still had no intention of stopping. And although this is a tavern, it is the time to close the stalls, and there are not many people. The lewd man was even more bold to hug Yin Xiu, and he wanted to violate his sister in front of Yin Li, so what.
Just when he thought that the plan had succeeded, another voice came from the fight: "Stop!" ”
This is a sentence in Chinese, and the middle-aged man did not understand it, but they stopped their movements and turned their heads to look at the place where the voice had come.
A child, a little kid about 1.5 meters tall, looked at him with an angry face.
"Yaga!"
"Hit! A little brat, I don't have to worry about him! The lewd man was not afraid, and with a wave of his hand, he still let his employees give a heavy hand.
"Damn it!" Chen Liqing couldn't help but burst into foul language.
"This is a toast and don't eat and drink, you grandma's stop for me!" With a slight jump, Chen Liqing jumped high, and then the sound of ping-pong sounded, and the employees who were pressing Yin Li's beating were kicked away by Chen Liqing.
Crash!
The windows of this tavern and the like were directly smashed!
"Sister!" And Yin Li was released, and rushed towards his sister almost regardless of the pain.
"You and him. Damn brute, I'll kill you! A punch directly rushed into the face of the obscene man who was already sluggish at this time, and the lewd man was knocked down with one punch. However, Yin Li still didn't understand his hatred, riding his fat body, punching mercilessly after punch.
Chen Liqing landed on the ground and watched Yin Li beat the fat man, but he didn't persuade.
Fortunately, Yin Xiu reacted quickly, and she hurriedly grabbed Yin Li: "Enough, brother, if you beat him again, he will be killed." ”
Yin Li stopped at this time.
"Sister, sister, it's okay if you're okay." Yin Li looked up at Yin Xiu, called twice, and then his eyes turned white and he fainted.
By the time he woke up again, he was already in the room he had rented with his sister.
"Sister!" And after waking up, he quickly bounced up and rushed directly out the door.
"Thank you, little brother Liqing, if it weren't for your help, my brother might have been beaten to death by that Nakayama Jiexiu." Outside the door, Yin Xiu was making tea for Chen Liqing, who had a young face.
"Sister." Yin Li finally remembered that it seemed that this little boy had saved him.
"Wake up, Xiaoli, why did you wake up so quickly, don't sleep more, lie down." Yin Xiu turned his head to look at Yin Li, and immediately stood up, and there was a series of worried greetings.
"It's okay, sister, this, who is this?" Yin Li hurriedly shook his head, he was obviously more curious about Chen Liqing.
"Hehe, hello, my name is Chen Liqing, and I am a Chinese." Chen Liqing smiled slightly, stood up, and took the initiative to introduce himself to Yin Li.
"Chinese?" The vigilance on Yin Li's face finally disappeared.
"Yes, Xiaoli, hurry up and thank Liqing, if it weren't for Liqing's little brother, I'm afraid you would be killed." Yin Xiu also hurriedly introduced.
"There is no need to thank you, the road is uneven, this little thing is what I should do, not to mention that everyone is still Chinese." Chen Liqing waved his hand.
Being able to meet these two sisters and brothers today can be regarded as a fate. Because he got lost, and he got lost as he walked. In addition, he can't speak, he can only walk around, and he can meet fellow villagers on the road, of course he has to help. In addition, the Yin Xiu in front of him still looks like a beautiful fellow countryman, so he has to help no matter what.
"Well, okay, but no matter what, we should all thank you, little brother Liqing." What Chen Liqing said was too formal, and the two brothers and sisters listened to it for a while, but fortunately, Yin Li was well-informed and a little chivalrous, so he still apologized to him. (To be continued.) )
