CHAPTER XXIII
The cell boss watched Pyongyang in embarrassment, and after being kicked, he hurriedly ran in.
Pyongyang's nose is crooked, and I haven't seen so many soldiers with bright knives. Why don't you just rob a prisoner, what a big deal? No matter how big the matter is, I will tell His Majesty the King tomorrow, and I will be guilty of stumbling with him.
Li Xiao returned to the outside of the cell, and after a while, the cell boss dragged a person out of it.
Seeing that this guy's face was like gold paper, his legs were drooping when he was driven out, and he didn't react at all. If no one is holding it, it will collapse on the ground like mud. Look at this appearance, Ao Canghai is right. If he hadn't come today, he wouldn't have seen the sun tomorrow morning.
"You dare to lie to Lao Tzu? This person is not Ai Husheng! Seeing the person standing up, Li Xiao immediately grabbed Pyongyang's neck by the collar. Barking like a wolfdog!
The matter in Pyongyang is about to pee, and I don't understand that Mao, the Ming general, said that this person is fake. Hearing the translator of the tongue man, the cell boss knelt on the spot. Swearing, this is definitely Ai Husheng.
"Don't make a fuss, it's true." Ao Canghai asked a North Korean officer who had seen Ai Husheng, and leaned over to Li Xiao and said.
"Uh......!" This is Ai Husheng? Listening to this name, it should be a big man, how thin is this like a chicken cub. Look at this head, it is only one meter six when it is bigger, the hair covers the face, and the face cannot be seen clearly, and the clothes are worn on the body and wander around. The exposed arm is no different from a stick of firewood. This fucking looks like a genius of the world, obviously a genetically mutated monkey.
I heard that this guy is almost thirty years old, and it is estimated that he should have passed the development period in this life and will not grow any longer.
"Recognized? Make no mistake! The hair covered the face, maybe mistakenly. ”
"That's right! How is a person of this size? Whoever it is, you recognize it again. Ao Canghai had no choice but to drag out the North Korean officer again. The torches were almost pestle on his face, and Li Xiao could smell the smell of burning manes.
The North Korean officer nodded affirmatively, and Li Xiao reluctantly admitted this fact. I can't help but warn myself in my heart that the vision of life will be extraordinary!
"Take it away!" Li Xiao let go of the collar of Pyongyang's neck and kindly helped him brush it. The heart that hung in the air about Pyongyang finally let go, and as soon as my spirit relaxed, my whole body went soft. If no one was there to support me, I almost fell to my knees.
There are only two things that rule the world these days, superstition and the sword. These guys with knives can't be provoked the most, and even the king has to look at people's faces, not to mention beating him for a small matter. If he really killed, the king would not help him. At most, it means that you can make up more money for your own family.
As soon as he walked to the door of the official office, he saw Hong Yihan hurrying over. Seeing that Li Xiao's face was white, he asked him why he wanted to break into the prison and rob him. Although it is not said that this is a gross violation of the sovereignty of the DPRK, it is still necessary to coax this uncle under the current circumstances. The Tartar soldiers will come back at any time, and this master is gone. Who will protect Pyongyang?
"Tomorrow I will go to the palace and give an explanation to the king." This kind of thing is not clear to Hong Yihan, or it is better to tell the king of Joseon directly. Judging from Li Kun's attitude, this should not be a big deal. At least he is much stronger than Zhao Shujiao, so he didn't rob the army!
Back at the station, Li Xiao personally checked the prodigy's injuries, and after groping for a while, he finally breathed a sigh of relief. The bones are not broken, they are just skin wounds. Let him treat his wounds, and the old hen stewed Korean ginseng and drink a bowl. I guess I'll be able to get up tomorrow morning!
The next morning, when Li Xiao went to dinner. Ao Canghai was sitting on a chair, combing his beard with two hands like a squirrel eating pine nuts. Maybe I've seen too much of the three strands of long hair of North Korean officials recently, and Ao Canghai has also learned from others, combing his beard with a wooden comb all day long.
Don't look at it, people's beards are smooth and smooth. Your curly beard will not become three strands of hair even if you comb it for a lifetime. Regardless of this old fellow, it's good to have something to do. It's better to groom your beard than to go to someone's little nurse's house all the time!
"I said you wasted so much effort to get back a half-crippled. Is this man so useful? Seeing Li Xiao walk in, Ao Canghai complained.
"It works! It's useful! I didn't understand it when I told you! Li Xiao felt that teaching political economy to a bastard like Ao Canghai was a kind of destruction to himself!
"You know, it's big or small. Don't make it impossible for the king of North Korea to come to power, after all, this is someone else's territory. ”
"I think Lao Ao is right about this, I went to see it yesterday. The quality of North Korea's coal is good, and the coal blocks are all black and shiny, and at first glance it is good coal. The kind of ore you mentioned, North Korea also has it. It's not far from Pyongyang, you see. I look at it seems to be a little better than the ore in Shandong! Man Gui walked in and threw a piece of ore on the desk.
Li Xiao took it and took a look, the black-brown ore was mixed with yellow. At first glance, you can tell that it is high-quality pyrite ore, and North Korea is really a good place. The iron ore that Tuohong Yihan got two days ago is also in quite good condition. Compared with the iron ore purchased by the fifth master, it is much better.
All kinds of ores are so important to Phi Dao that in winter, Phi Island is inseparable from coal for heating. The factories on Phi Island are also inseparable from the support of coal. Every year, the amount of coal consumed by Phi Koh is a staggering figure.
If North Korea is willing to provide these things, then Li Xiao will save a lot of things. At least the fifth master can also take time out to collect information from all aspects.
"Don't worry, the King of Korea won't mind." Li Xiao said indifferently while admiring the ore.
"Wouldn't mind, would definitely mind. I don't understand why such a person should come back. The body is thin and has no strength, and the shoulders can't be carried and the hands can't be lifted, which makes people upset to watch. Man Gui looked at useful people, and all of them were virtuous with him. If it is a warrior who runs a horse on his arm and stands on his fist, he will definitely be respected. Ai Hu is ......! There are too many differences in appearance, which is extremely inconsistent with Comrade Man Gui's aesthetic standards.
Li Xiao didn't speak, just looked straight at the door.
Ai Husheng, whose face was blue and purple, was standing at the door, supported by a female nurse. Li Xiao had instructed last night that if he could move this morning, he would call him over for lunch together.
The embarrassment only lasted for a short time on Ai Husheng's face, and the guy stepped through the door and walked in. He bowed deeply to Li Xiao, and said in a Hebei accent with a straight and round tone: "I've seen General Li!" ”
"Oh! Sit down, I'm calling you here today to talk to you. Li Xiao smiled and motioned for Ai Husheng to take a seat.
"Why does he sit in this room and eat?" Ao Canghai's face darkened all of a sudden, and the only people in the whole camp who were qualified to sit in this room and eat were Li Xiao, Ao Canghai and Man Gui. Except for Hong Yihan, who can come to eat a meal from time to time, others don't dare to eat here at all.
Ai Husheng is a newcomer, why is he sitting at this table to eat?
"Dare I ask what do you call this person?" Before Li Xiao could speak, Ai Husheng turned to look at Ao Canghai and asked.
Ao Canghai's neck was held high, and he glared at Ai Husheng with his nostrils and said disdainfully: "The people in the camp are all called Lao Tzu Ao Ye, and the one over there can be called Man Ye." ”
"Oh, Ao Ye is invited! Master Man, please! Ai Husheng gave a salute to Man Gui and Ao Canghai respectively, and then asked with a smile: "Ai has just arrived, so naturally he is not qualified to sit here to eat." But Ai wants to know, how can I sit here and eat? ”
"Huh! It's good to say that eating here is not based on seniority. It's by skill! I heard you're good at business? Ao Canghai's face was arrogant, as if a street gangster was as strong as a middle school student.
"Yes! Ai followed the boat at the age of thirteen and ran for ten years. Wa ......! ”
"Nobody wants to hear that from you, No! You go and sell this thing to the monks in the temple. As long as you can sell it, Lao Tzu will recognize that you are qualified to eat in this room. Ao Canghai threw the wooden comb he was holding in his hand to comb his beard on the table and said contemptuously.
"Old Ao, this is a bit excessive. How can a monk use a comb! Man Gui also couldn't stand it anymore, Ao Canghai was obviously making things difficult.
Li Xiao didn't speak, but wanted to see how this Ai Husheng responded. If you don't even have this little bit of contingency skills, then you are probably a pseudo-talent. Wu Daji's old bastard is fooling himself!
"Oh! This one! Ai Husheng slowly walked to Ao Canghai, picked up the wooden comb on the table and played with it in his hand.
"Yes, that's it!"
"I don't know how much Ao Ye wants Ai to sell before he is qualified to eat here?"
"Uh......!" Ao Canghai was stunned at this time, but he didn't expect this guy to ask how many were sold. Isn't this a thing that makes people stupid in the head......!
Looking at Li Xiao, Ao Canghai said viciously: "One hundred!" ”
"Oh, what's the time requirement?" Ai Husheng asked again.
"Three days, in three days, you can sell a hundred wooden combs to the monk, and Lao Ao will serve you."
"Good! However, what if Ai sells 200 handfuls? ”
"Two hundred! Hehe! Ao Canghai sneered, it seems that this guy was really beaten stupid. If you can sell one, you have to cheat, and you can pay back two hundred.
"If you can sell two hundred, you can eat while sitting and I will eat while Lao Ao is standing. But let's talk about it, a wooden comb costs one or two silver. Ao Canghai immediately increased the ante and wisely indicated the price. Let Ai Husheng have no more loopholes to drill!
"Lao Ao, it's too much." Man Gui spoke again.
Li Xiao was also a little apprehensive in his heart, after all, Ao Canghai's conditions were a bit too harsh.
"Okay, I promise!" Ai Husheng said, stretching out his palm.
Ao Canghai happily high-fived Ai Husheng as an oath, even if this is a certainty, there is no way to change it.
