Full of gold river~

Jin Manhe Ye~

Manjin River ~ Jin ~ Man ~ River ~~ Yo ~~

。。。

The loud sound of trumpets from the deck forcibly pulled the old gold digger out of his gold-filled sleep.

In the first half of last night, the wind and waves were fierce, the ship was bumpy, and the old bones of the old man were almost about to be torn apart.

In addition, as an old gold digger, Lao Yutou has developed a long-term habit of vigilance, and his sleep has always been very shallow.

Last night, the old man only slept for an hour.

During this more than 40-day voyage, Lao Yutou did not sleep a few peacefully, but fortunately, the ship passed the Jiaoguang sea area safely, and there was not much left for the next voyage.

Lao Yutou rubbed his rough face like black charcoal after being roasted by the scorching days of the Golden River, and stroked his gray hair again.

casually picked up the cigarette stick sandwiched between the sleeping side of the cabin, pinched a small ball of tobacco leaf powder from a tobacco leaf bag embroidered with large gold ingots, pressed it on the cigarette holder, and then took out the fire fold and blew it, and then smashed it against the tobacco leaf powder, smashed it~ smashed it and took two deep breaths, squinted his eyes, and then slowly spit it out, with a satisfied expression of soul returning.

Lao Yutou glanced at the gold ingot pattern on the tobacco bag, seemed to think of something, hesitated, took another deep puff, and then put away the fire fold.

The business was important, and he didn't know if the three-seal petty official slave was dead, so the old man hurriedly left the room and ran towards the lower level of the cabin.

The criminal law of Tianluo country stipulates that the official slave is a pariah, the face is branded as a slave, he can not eat three meals a day, he can only eat scraps, he lives on the side of the pig house dog pen, he cannot read, he is barefoot in all seasons, he is covered by single clothes, and his illness cannot be treated.

According to the number of slave marks on the face, the official slave is also divided into single seal official slave, double seal official slave and triple seal official slave. If a commoner gives alms to officials and slaves, he will be punished severely!

Not everyone can buy official slaves, and they need a qualification certificate issued by the local government.

If the master wants to take the purchased official slave out of the Tianluo Kingdom, the master family needs to be more strictly scrutinized.

Lao Yutou, originally a native of Dongning Mansion, a few decades ago, took this Manjin ship, went north to the Manjin River to pan for gold, and traveled to and from Dongning Mansion and Manjin River for many years, not to say that he was rich and noble, and he also had a house in Dongning Mansion, with three children under his knees.

The official master in the government still knows the old man well, and in addition, the old man used some silver, and the little official slave with three seals was taken by the old man to the boat on the Manjin River.

Some things can be accommodated, but some rules are deep-rooted, such as officials and slaves are not allowed to eat three meals, only eat scraps at each meal, etc., otherwise they will incur bad luck!

Veteran shipowners who have been sailing at sea for many years have seen all kinds of incredible anecdotes on the sea, and they are even more convinced of these rules that have been passed down for thousands of years.

Lao Yutou, relying on his friendship with the shipowner for decades, said that he had some silver, and then asked for a small window room adjacent to the pigsty for the small official slave of Sanyin, saying that it was a room, which was originally a place to keep some poultry.

"If the Dragon Lord is gracious, the little official slave will survive", the boat boss comforted the old man Yu Tou.

"I said Lao Yutou, you ran back and forth for such a small official slave of the Three Seals, isn't it, is he your illegitimate son?" The boat boss quipped.

"Hey, you just bypass me, I beg for a living in Manjin River all the year round, and I don't know where Linjiang County is, how can I have anything to do with the Lin family. Brother, you also watched me run all the way, I and my brothers have been begging for a living in the Manjin River for decades, and now that I am old, I bought such a small official slave, and it is also a few old brothers, tighten my belt, and make up the money, if this kid dies halfway, my brothers and I have worked in vain in the past few years. Old Yu said with a bitter face.

"A few years ago, when I went out to sea on the Manjin, the cabin with many gold diggers couldn't sit down, and even the corridor was crowded. The boat boss also sighed with some emotion.

After decades of friendship, the shipowner still recognizes the temperament of Lao Yutou, but there are rules for sailing, and Lao Yutou takes too much care of the three surnamed petty officials and slaves, which makes the old shipowner muttered a little in his heart, turned around, and reminded Lao Yutou to pay more attention.

。。。。。

Old Yu turned down a small staircase and came to the kitchen.

A chubby cook was making breakfast, and when he saw Lao Yutou's anxious appearance, he quipped: "Old Yutou, have you come to see your son so early?" ”

"You stinky boy, how can you make fun of the old man~" The old man pulled his face and pretended to be angry.

"The wind and waves were so strong last night, that little official slave of the Three Seals, there should still be movement now, right?" Old Yu Tou's face was a little worried.

"Won't you go down and see for yourself?" The young man snickered and replied to the old man.

The old man touched two big steamed buns from the steamer, and was about to go forward, when the fat cook saw this and hurriedly stopped him.

"Stop! I said, old man, don't you understand the rules of sailing? The fat cook was a little angry, "What do you want to do with two big white steamed buns?" Hurry up and put it down! ”

"Look at what you stinky boy said, my old man is hungry, can't he take two steamed buns to pad his stomach?" The old man knew that he was at a loss, and hurriedly explained,

"It's useless for you to take the steamed buns, the sliding door of the lower cabin was locked by the owner before dinner yesterday, and it is strictly forbidden for any idlers to wait."

"Hey! I paid for the official slave I bought, I went to see if it was dead or alive, it didn't work? Old Yu glared at the fat cook and argued angrily.

"Old Yutou, it's not me saying you, you treat that little official slave like your own son, this is a big taboo for us sailors, and it also violates the criminal law, the ship is about to enter the port, and the shipowner is also for your good, so as not to be truthful." The fat cook persuaded with good words.

"If you really want to see it, just lie down in the crack of the deck over there and take a look, in terms of food, there are still leftovers, don't worry too much, these untouchables are very hard, they don't eat a meal or two and don't starve to death." The fat cook continued to comfort.

。。。。。。

The aroma of steamed buns overflowing from the steamer in the kitchen upstairs woke Lin Lu up hungry early.

Just now, Lin Lu listened to the conversation between Lao Yutou and the fat cook word for word.

Last night's waves, in addition to slapping into a blueridge sea bream, poured in more icy sea water and water vapor, now taking advantage of the sun can reach the small room, Lin Lu stood up with difficulty, stretched out his hands out of the small wooden window, pressed his face tightly against the wooden window, and let the sun and sea breeze caress his cheeks and arms.

Looking at the endless blue sky and the sea, when I was a child, I played with my friends in the river, and the scenes came to mind.

"What does the sea look like, you say?" Lin Lu floated on his back on the water, his eyes looking at the blue sky.

"I heard that the sea is very big, much bigger than the small river we have here, in short, it is very, very big, the sea is blue, just like the sky, and there is a fish called the Horn Light Sea that emits blue light, called the blue sea bream, and it is very delicious." The second stunned man replied with an oath.

"You are dumbfounded, have you ever seen the sea, the water is all blue or yellow, how can it be blue? What fish glow, you think it's fireflies. The second stunned man was refuted, and his heart was weak.

"My uncle has been to the sea, and I heard that the sea water is yellow, all mud and sand, and the sea water tastes bitter and salty," Da Zhuang swore to take over.

"Da Zhuang, it stands to reason that the water in the sea flows down from a small river like ours, why is the water here tasteless, and when it comes to the sea, why does the water become bitter and salty?" Iron Pillar retorted.

"I don't know about this, my uncle has definitely been there, and brought back several catties of salted fish, and a few of you have eaten it, isn't it particularly salty?" Da Zhuang patted his chest and promised.

"That fish is really salty, you mean, the sea is very salty, so all the fish in the sea are salty?" The second stunned asked.

"That's how it should be," Da Zhuang hesitated and replied.

"We have tasteless water here, and it keeps flowing into the sea, so will the water become lighter and lighter?" Tiezhu asked.

"That's how it should be," Da Zhuang replied.

"The sea is getting lighter and lighter, will all the fish in the sea die?" The second stunned asked.

Everyone was worried about the future fate of the small fish and shrimp in the sea, and they all fell into silence for a while。。。。。

"When we grow up, we will go to the beach to play together, and then we will all know? If you want to go together, swim with me to the other side!! Lin Lu plunged into the water, and other friends followed.

。。。。

。。。

。。

The splashing waves wet Lin Lu's hands and pulled him back from his memories to the cruel reality.

Lin Lu looked at the magnificent scene of the sea and sky through the small wooden window, and muttered softly,

"Friends, the sea is really big and blue, Uncle Da Zhuang is right, the sea water is really bitter and salty, and what the two stunned people said is not wrong, there are really blue fish in the sea, not salty at all, very delicious!"

"Partners, Lin Lu went overseas to work as a slave laborer this time, and it seems that he is destined to be buried in another country in this life, Lin Lu now looks at the sea, even if he has completed our agreement."
