Chapter 14 Li Worm
In the main hall of the Five Lakes Gang, Ye Fenglai sat on the main seat with a golden sword, looking quite majestic, and under him stood Zhang Neng, the steward of the Five Lakes Gang.
Zhang Neng said with a smile: "Helper, the Xiao family's boat has docked, and the young master and shopkeeper of the Xiao family are still at a loss at this time, hehe, I see that the young master of the Xiao family is not very old, and he will cry if he doesn't get it right, right?" ”
Ye Fenglai smiled: "I, Ye, am a person from the rivers and lakes, and I don't want to bully a hairy boy, but his eldest brother Xiao Dalang is too ignorant of lifting!" Hey, I thought Xiao Dalang was a friend, but Xiao Dalang didn't treat me as a friend, who can blame me? ”
Zhang Neng flattered: "What the helper said is reasonable!" As the saying goes, women are like clothes, so Xiao Dalang is stingy with a piece of clothing, why should the helper talk to him about the morality of the rivers and lakes? But he frowned again and said: "However, the rice and grain transported by the Xiao family this time are 50,000 stones, which is a big deal, and I always feel that it is a pity to miss it like this!" ”
Ye Fenglai's eyes also showed a hint of regret: "It's really a pity." But I once said cruel things to Xiao Dalang, so that the Xiao family would not want to divide the goods at the Ping'an Wharf in the future, wouldn't it make people laugh if they broke their promises? His expression became a little arrogant: "Forget it, just a few hundred taels of business, I Ye can afford to put it down, but for the Xiao family, these rice grains are worth tens of thousands of taels, hum, I want to let them all rot on the dock, see who is more uncomfortable than whom!" ”
On the embankment of Ping'an Wharf, Shopkeeper Hu walked around in front of Xiao Ruixue, and kept talking: "Fourth young master, the boats have already docked, and those boatmen are complaining one by one, how ugly are you listening to their scolding, how is this good, how is it good?" ”
Xiao Ruixue hugged her head and said, "I know, I'm not deaf!" Shopkeeper Hu, can you stop for a moment? I'm dizzy when you're spinning around like this! ”
Shopkeeper Hu was stunned, put on a bitter gourd face and said, "Fourth young master, then you have to think of a way!" ”
Xiao Ruixue smiled bitterly: "Aren't I thinking? ”
At this moment, the shipwrights on dozens of merchant ships began a new round of noise.
"Principal, you're fucking old enough to let the dog eat, you've lived for a long time, and you can't even do the matter of hiring a husband? You fucking better hurry up and reincarnate and be a new person! ”
"The brothers traveled all night on the boat, but they were all hungry and destitute, and they waited for the goods to be unloaded and went into the city to eat and drink and look for the girls! That's good, I can't even see the ghost of a porter at the moment! ”
"You old man, is it because you are late to sleep with the girls at home, so you can't do it in time?"
"I must have choked on the milk of the girl, and I forgot to bring the silver taels of the hired person when I went out! As the saying goes, you don't work hard without hair on your mouth, your mouth is full of hair, and you can't do things well! ”
Shopkeeper Hu listened to the malicious curses of these people, and burst into tears of anger: "Insult Sven, insult Sven!" ”
The curses of the boatmen still did not stop, because they did not have a direct employment relationship with the Xiao family, but were employed by the boat company hired by the Xiao family, and most of them were used to walking the rivers and lakes, full of ruffians, scolding people for filth and without scruples, although some of the Xiao guys who accompanied the ship have always been kind to appease, but it did not have much effect. They saw that Xiao Ruixue was young, and most of them thought that the shopkeeper Hu was the main thing, so most of the foul language was directed at him, but they just scolded and scolded, probably because they felt bored, so they turned to curse the employer.
The employer is naturally the Xiao family, and the boatmen are already insulting the women of the Xiao family with their own words, although they don't know how many wives and concubines Xiao Hui has, or how many daughters he has, but anyway, they are open-mouthed, so they scold whatever they think. Xiao Ruixue finally couldn't bear it anymore and said angrily: "Do you guys lack virtue in their mouths? ”
When the boatmen heard that someone was arguing with them, they couldn't help laughing, but they scolded even more happily.
"Boy, look at your thin skin and tender meat, isn't it the Xiao family's master Luan (homonym)?"
"Look at his appearance, he looks more handsome than a woman, and his voice is soft and soft, it must be, it must be!"
"Grandpa also likes you as a white and tender little man, do you want to get on the boat to play with grandpa? The silver gun wax-like head of the Xiao family is definitely not good, and grandpa guarantees that you can experience what it means to be immortal! ”
Xiao Ruixue's face turned red and white, she couldn't help but recall that in her previous life, there were enemy generals who insulted her in front of the battle, and the words were not as ugly as they are now, and she was stabbed in the chest with a shot during the battle, and directly picked up the camp sacrifice flag for three days, which can be described as very relieving. However, now it is impossible for Xiao Ruixue to use this method to fight back against the abuse, not only is it impossible, but she also does not dare to offend these shipwrights too harshly, because she is afraid that they will take the burden and do nothing. So she could only smash her teeth and swallow in her stomach, and said to the shopkeeper Hu: "You go to find a restaurant nearby, let the restaurant get some wine and food, and send someone directly to the boat, first block the mouths of this group of evil guys!" ”
Shopkeeper Hu nodded, but said with a sad face: "Fourth young master, the old man thinks that this is actually not very useful, and they will continue to scold after eating!" At present, the most important thing is to hire a porter as soon as possible, otherwise the problem will never be solved! ”
Xiao Ruixue has already understood that although this shopkeeper has lived a lot of age and knows a lot of things, he has no opinions, and he is easy to panic when he encounters problems, and staying here will only add to his own blockage. She wanted to call him directly to do it, but it can be seen that he is still being scolded by a group of villains when he is old, and she can't bear it in her heart, so she squeezes out a smile and says: "Shopkeeper Hu, you go and do it!" Don't worry, Young Master Ben already has an idea in mind! ”
When Shopkeeper Hu heard that Xiao Ruixue had an idea, he couldn't help but be overjoyed, and hurriedly said: "Hey, okay, I'll go, I'll go!" With that, he trotted away.
Seeing the shopkeeper Hu leave, Xiao Ruixue's smiling face immediately turned into a bitter gourd face, she squatted down and hugged her head again: "I have a fart idea!" ”
What happened on the side of the Xiao family's merchant ships continued, and many porters who came to watch the excitement after resting on the embankment inevitably gathered. Xiao Ruixue had also tried to recruit some porters to work by herself before, but the porters relied on various gangs to make a living, as long as the gang they belonged to didn't nod, they wouldn't dare to lose their livelihood for this time, so Xiao Ruixue was also helpless.
"Wow, there are really a lot of merchant ships of the Xiao family! Let me count, thirty-two ships in one, two, 、...,! This Xiao family is also our big customer, and this time it should be a big deal, why is no one willing to take over? Dwarf Tiger, do you know why? Someone in the crowd asked, his voice sounding like a teenager, and his tone was a little lively.
"Li Worm, you don't know, and it's impossible for me to know." The other replied in a voice that sounded like a teenager, but in a slightly wooden tone.
Someone in the crowd smiled and said, "Li Worm, it's rare that there are things you don't know!" Haha, let me tell you, this Xiao family seems to have offended the Ye Gang Master, so no one dares to take over his family's business! ”
The person known as "Li Worm" responded: "Which Ye gang leader? ”
"Li Worm, are you a little unlucky in your brain? In addition to the Ye gang leader of the Five Lakes Gang, which other gang leader is surnamed Ye? ”
"Tsk, you just say that Ye Fenglai won't get it, if you don't say the name, how can I sometimes remember who is with whom?"
"Li worm, you're really gasping! If you don't have a good brother who is not afraid of heaven and earth, do you dare to be so arrogant? ”
"Hehe, what's wrong with me being arrogant, what do you dare to do with me?"
"I dare to hit you and me!"
Xiao Ruixue heard that someone was on the bar behind her, and she couldn't help but look back to see what had happened. It didn't take long for her to locate her target, because there were two people in the crowd pulling, both of them were dressed in short clothes, and it seemed that they should be porters on the safe dock. One of them was a little taller, about twenty years old, with dark skin, a plain appearance, and a strong build, and he was holding the other man by the collar and raising his fist. And the one he grabbed by the collar was a fifteen or sixteen-year-old boy, with slightly whiter skin than him, similar to Xiao Ruixue, some eyebrows and eyes, and some agility in his expression, but he was as thin as a bamboo pole.
Li Worm deliberately stretched out her face and said with a smile: "Come on, come on, I'll stretch out my face to hit you!" If you dare to leave a fingerprint on my face today, when my brother comes, I will let him twist you with one hand!" ”
At this time, there was also a stocky young man who was half a head shorter than Li Worm'er and looked like a tiger in the middle of Li Worm'er and the sturdy young man, and the young man said while desperately trying to pull them away: "Li Worm'er, don't say it anymore!" Brother Hei Niu, everyone works on the same dock, don't hurt your anger because of a little thing! ”
Li Worm was still grinning: "Dwarf Tiger, you don't have to interfere!" I don't expect him to dare to do it, don't look at his strength, everyone calls him a black bull, in front of Wuji, he doesn't even deserve to lift shoes! ”
The young man named Black Bull took a deep breath, obviously holding back his anger, but he exhaled heavily, then put his fist down, and said, "Okay, you are amazing!" But Li worm, let me tell you, you dare to act in front of me! Calling Ye Gang Leader by his name like you did just now, I don't believe that he will beat you up if he knows? ”
Li Worm smiled: "At Ping'an Wharf, I, Li Worm, am not afraid of anyone!" It's not that Ye Fenglai hasn't fought against my brother Wuji, and his subordinates are just defeated, so I'm afraid of him? ”
Hei Niu sneered: "Okay, since you are so kind, even the Ye Gang Leader is not afraid, then let me ask you, the Xiao family has so many merchant ships here, and the Ye Gang Master has ordered that no one is allowed to take this deal, do you dare to go?" ”
Li Worm'er's face changed slightly, and after a pause, he said, "Why don't I dare?" Of course I dare! ”
Hei Niu said: "Who wouldn't say big things?" I can also say I dare. But you alone, how can you accept this deal, isn't it the same as saying it in vain? ”
Li Worm was stunned for a moment, then raised her head and said, "Who said I was alone?" Who is I, Li Worm, as long as I want, I can call hundreds of people to join me at any time! ”
At this moment, Xiao Ruixue's expression moved slightly, but she felt that the young man named Li Worm seemed to be slapping his swollen face and becoming fat, so she planned to wait and see what happened.
Hearing Li Worm'er's answer, a smug smile flashed on Hei Niu's face, and suddenly he shouted, "Is there the principal of the Xiao family here?" Please come out! This Li Worm said that he could take over your business, but he is a capable person here for us, and he is the only one who can say it! ”
Li Worm'er's face was full of surprise, he didn't expect the black bull to suddenly come to such a move.
Xiao Ruixue's eyes rolled slightly, and she already stood up with a smile: "I am the head of the Xiao family, dare to ask which one is Li Worm?" ”
