Chapter 892: The Grief and Indignation of the Ship Boss Hua Ying (I)
Two-year-old Hua Ying, who is Chinese New Year's Eve today, has been following his father on the boat since he was a child, and now, the son inherits his father's business, owns a large wooden boat, and runs between Taiyuan and Santie City (Baoyuan County belongs to the jurisdiction of Santie City) for a long time.
Although Hua Ying is a veteran on the water, he can be honest, and he belongs to the kind of person who will never get angry unless he has to, but once he gets angry, he will go crazy...... As far as his character is concerned, he has only been angry once in the past 32 years, and a local gangster insisted on occupying his wife and forcing him into a corner, so he was ruthless and found an opportunity to directly stab the gangster fourteen times, and as a result, the house and boat left by his father, he chose the boat, and the house became someone else's.
Before the little devil came, everyone was talking about how the little devil was cruel, and others advised him to run to the rear with the boat and his family, but he said, "No matter how cruel the little devil is, he still has to eat and do things." As long as they still need to eat, they will definitely need to use the boat, and they will not do anything to us. ”...... At that time, the local grain grown in Taiyuan was not enough to eat, so some were generally transported from other places to adjust.
After the little devil came, at the beginning, as Hua Ying judged, although the little devil did not look down on other people, but for these boats and boatmen, they gave them some food, and the purpose was naturally to hope that these boats and boatmen would work for the little devils, such as water-transporting weapons and ammunition, food, soldiers, and the like.
Hua Ying's personality is honest and loyal, although he feels that he is more tired than before, and the money he earns is about the same, but looking at the current lives of other ordinary people, and then looking at his current life, he thinks it is already good. Therefore, although I am angry at the little devil's wanton treatment of the Chinese people*, and even inappropriate for others, Hua Ying is too responsible, and every time she has the urge to fight with the little devil, she can't help but think of her family in her mind, so the fear comes to her heart, and she can only endure it...... This is probably the reason why many people are obedient: in the face of threats, they will find all kinds of excuses to excuse their inner fear and cowardice, and then deal with it safely!
Three days ago, the head of the general (equivalent to the president of the shipping industry association, of course, now it is natural that the big traitor is the president. The elder has long since run away. Gather people like Hua Ying who have their own boats to a meeting, and say that in the last five days, everyone should stop trading, especially not being able to drive far away. I didn't say the reason, I just said that it was a strict order from the little devils. But he told everyone to stay on the ship and not leave the ship, otherwise, they would be killed.
Running a boat, when there is business, naturally they don't want to rest, and everyone complains about this, but the little devil presses it, and no one dares to move. Especially the next day, I saw that someone was disobedient and secretly drove the boat out, but as a result, he was stopped halfway, and all the goods on the ship were confiscated, and the head of the boat to the guy was all shot in public. Everyone dared to be angry and didn't dare to speak, so they could only accept it helplessly.
For this reason, Hua Ying also comforted her family, "Isn't it just three or five days? ”
However, although Hua Ying is honest and responsible, she is also a little clever.
He felt that such an order was too unusual, something big would definitely happen, and now he was killing the whole family, which showed that the little devil would make a big move in the near future. So, in the afternoon he went to the chief, originally to ask the chief, and he stayed with the boat, but let his sons and daughters go ashore and stay at the children's uncle's house for a few days. As a result, he didn't see his head, but was extorted by a little traitor leader who was a manager on the dock, and spent a full five oceans to secretly send his precious children to his uncle's house.
Although I was blackmailed and distressed, I thought that my children were safe, and then, no matter what kind of major events happened, I didn't have to worry about cutting off the incense, which was worth it...... originally wanted his wife to follow, but his wife was worried about Huaying's safety and didn't agree, so she had to stay.
So, Hua Ying stayed on the boat with peace of mind, played a small card with her shipmates, drank a little wine, and really relaxed.
I had nothing to do for two days and two nights, and late at night on the third day, the dock suddenly became lively. Looking through the window, Hua Ying knew that it was finally time to come.
With a little curiosity, he followed the men who had come to call them ashore.
Then, Hua Ying saw countless big cars, coming in and out, occupying the entire wharf, and Hua Ying didn't know how many big cars there were, because he was a little dazzled by the headlights of the car, so he didn't bother to care about these. However, he noticed that the car was full of large boxes of various sizes.
Soon, the boss of the ship like Hua Ying was called to a meeting by the head of the company, and the guys were called to help carry things...... I didn't see the crowds of traitors urging like overseers, and the little devils on the side, holding spears with bright bayonets, were watching there, who dared not obey?
Hua Ying and more than 20 other boat bosses followed the chief boss to a small auditorium, and saw a little devil wearing glasses at first sight.
The little devil didn't say much, just a few words of thanks to everyone for their support for the common prosperity of Greater East Asia, and then, it was to send money, thirty-five oceans for each ship's boss, and it was only half, and he would give the final payment when he came back.
Huaying is not stupid, knowing that the ocean is very valuable now, generally run a boat, if the journey is moderate, a round trip will take about five days, even if you can bring the goods when you come back, the money you earn is generally about 20 oceans, except for labor and costs, you don't earn much. Just like when he sailed from Taiyuan to Santie City, a round trip was about sixty oceans, and he had to bring the goods with him when he came back.
And now, as soon as the little devil came up, he gave thirty-five oceans as a deposit, and even if he ran back empty, it would have to be seventy oceans. Even if someone goes through a few procedures in the middle, these thirty-five pieces of ocean are iron and iron, and the rest can get about twenty yuan, which is a big profit.
So, here's the question: why is the little devil who has always blackmailed and exploited everyone so generous all of a sudden?
Naturally, some people asked, but without waiting for the little devil to explain, the 'dog' raised by the little devil always stood up and scolded everyone, "The money is enough for you, what are you doing when you ask so much......?" Don't blame me, the boss, for not reminding you, I've memorized it all: along the way, don't ask what you shouldn't ask, don't look at what you shouldn't see, and don't listen to what you shouldn't hear. Otherwise, the whole family's head will be lost, but don't blame me for not greeting you earlier. ”
At this point, everyone was silent.
It's useless to be silent, what to do has to be done according to what the little devil said...... Fortunately, the thirty-five oceans are iron and iron, and they can be regarded as a lot of peace of mind.
More than 20 ship bosses stepped forward one after another to take the money, sign and draw, and began to prepare when they returned.
Hua Ying did his duty, watching the large and small boxes continue to move to the ship, he suppressed the curiosity in his heart vigorously, and tried to do a good job of the three principles of not paying attention to it and not looking at it.
But Huaying's wife Zhang Xiaohua couldn't suppress the curiosity in her heart, and wanted to ask under the pretext of helping, but before she could get close to the box, she was yelled at by a little devil with a gun.
And what makes Hua Ying puzzled is not the more than ten boxes of different sizes, and the occasional crisp impact sound can be heard when they are put down, and it is not that no ship has to send four little devils to take care of it - so mysterious, so many boxes, at a glance, you can know that they contain very important things, and it is normal to send someone to take care of them, Hua Ying has no opinion on this, and there is no place to say if she has an opinion...... In fact, because Huaying's ship was located in the middle of the fleet, there were few people, like the front and rear ends of the fleet, there were eight people, and each ship was equipped with a light and heavy machine gun.
What really puzzled Hua Ying was that when these six little devils got on the boat, they actually brought their own food, vegetables and fruits, which made Hua Ying unable to figure it out.
After thinking about it for a long time, Hua Ying thought of a possibility: the little devil attached great importance to this shipment, and even the ship bosses didn't believe it, and he was afraid that someone would drug their food, so he simply brought his own food - in addition, he really couldn't figure out any other explanation.
When the day dawned, the cargo was loaded, and the fleet of twenty-seven large ships set off immediately...... In order to cover these large boxes, the outside of the boxes was also covered with sacks, which, when viewed from a distance, would make people think that they were merchant ships loaded with grain.
After opening the boat, Hua Ying discovered a strange thing about the little devils: these little devils actually hid in the boat and didn't come out, eating, drinking, and sleeping in the boat, and only in the middle of the night did the little devils go out like the prisoners, and they came out for a few hours, and they absolutely hid back in the cabin before dawn.
At the beginning, seeing the little devil behaving like this, Hua Ying was still glad in her heart: It's best if you don't come out, I'm still afraid that you will harm my stinky mother-in-law...... At that time, it was the custom of running boats, women were not allowed to get on the boat, but if it was the wife of the boat boss, and she was old and had been living on the boat, she could be an exception, because such a woman was no worse than a man in terms of experience and ability on the water, at least much stronger than some novices, and she could be regarded as a helper, so everyone did not regard her as a woman. What's more, this is the wife of the boat boss, and the boat boss wants to take it, who can say anything? Anyway, the boat is not his own, and the ship boss is not afraid, so what are we worried about? On the contrary, with a woman, at least, the food made is better than that made by a group of old men, isn't it?
But after a long time, Hua Ying was surprised by this, but unfortunately, she didn't dare to ask. However, after thinking about it for a long time, Hua Ying felt that it must be something that the little devil was afraid of, or something that he was avoiding, otherwise, with the rampant nature of the little devil, it would be impossible to do so, not to mention that all the little devils on the ship were like this, it must have been ordered in advance to have such a unified action.
Moreover, Hua Ying also found that although the little devils are ferocious, these little devils still respect themselves...... Didn't you see that every time you give them wine and meat, they will still nod or bend slightly to express their gratitude?
This made Hua Ying very happy, and her perception of the little devil also changed.
However, Hua Ying has forgotten the old Chinese saying, "Dogs can't change their!"
No matter how polite the little devil is to you, it must be for a reason, otherwise, with the arrogance and cruelty of the little devil, especially the attitude of looking down on the Chinese people, why would they suddenly be so polite to you?
Sure enough!
Along the way, the little devils didn't cause trouble, but when they were about to arrive in Santie City, something happened.
Or rather, the little devils themselves messed things up and paid a heavy price for their arrogance......
