Poor family mother and son

Chapter 511 The most "expensive" and "heavy" thing in this life
"Can it work?" Mizutaka asked.

"It doesn't matter if we can do it or not. The young master trusts us so much, if he says we can do it, we can do it, and if we can't do it, we can do it!" Shui Duanfu tightened the rope so hard that he couldn't speak.

"Only 22 of us?" Shui Duangui was still not confident.

"Try it!" Shui Duanfu handed him the noose on his hand.

Shui Duanfu and the others broke open a bamboo raft with an upturned head, leaving only half the width, with guard boards nailed on both sides, and thick nooses tied at the bow and stern. Now he handed the noose at one end of the raft to Shui Duanfu Expensive.

Shui Duanfu said: "Ah Gui, I will take a person in to put stones on it in a while, and you pull the rope by counting fifty in your mind, and I will pull back when I see the rope is loose."

Shui Duanfu and Shui Duangui led twenty "May [-]th" workers to spend three nights and two days digging tunnels to connect the Meng family's warehouse in the northern suburbs of the city with the nearest river section.

The northern suburbs of the city are close to the canal, and there are many small rivers connected to the canal. Shui Duanfu and the others opened a hole beside the nearest small river.

A pulley is fixed at the hole, and two sets of pulley blocks are installed above the pulley, with a potter's wheel next to it.

Time is tight and tasks are heavy, and these children use all available resources to arrange:
The bamboo raft that was split in half was brought back by Shui Duanfu and Shui Duangui when they traveled to and from Fuzhou to monitor Meng Chun;
The boards for the fenders were pried from vegetable racks in the college kitchen;

The two sets of iron pulley blocks that only Chu Qing's workshop can produce were stolen from the college's warehouse;

Finally, the potter's wheel of the well in the backyard of the college was also unloaded.

If there is no time to practice, it doesn't matter if it works, Shui Duanfu and the others are ready to carry the stone with more than [-] people if this trick doesn't work.

When he was about to arrive at the raft, Shui Duanfu finished his confession, pulled the noose at the stern of the raft, and quickly crawled into the tunnel.

Shui Duangui lay at the entrance of the cave and guarded the pulley, and sent someone to watch around the warehouse.

This warehouse is full of stones, raw jade stones, and because they are the most important things of the Meng family, four people are on duty every day, and shifts are made at midnight.

When the shift is over, they will open the warehouse to check the stones inside, and Shui Duanfu will carry them by hand after checking.

Before leaving, Xiaobao took back the two "smoke balls" left by Lei Xiaopao from Chu Yuan and gave them back. If something happened, he would drop the balls and "smoke escape".

Shui Duangui touched the small hook on the cigarette ball in his arms to stabilize his mind.

They have been digging tunnels with trepidation for the past few days, but they did not disturb the guards, and secretly measured the strength of the guards.

The skills of the four guards were similar to theirs, but they were taller and stronger than them. Adults were more powerful than these half-grown children.

However, there are too many of them, more than enough to deal with four guards.

What Shui Duangui is worried about is that there are several warehouses in this area, which belong to several businesses and are not far apart, so if these four guards call for help, guards from other houses may also come to rescue them.

The guards guarded the warehouse, and Shui Duangui sent people to guard the guards.

The reason why they dug the tunnel was because the soil was soft enough, and the other reason was that the guards were too strict.

The warehouse is full of stones, and it takes a long time to evacuate it, and it also requires a lot of manpower. It is impossible not to make noise, so it is impossible to move on the ground.

It is much safer to dig tunnels, have land for sound insulation, and sneak away stones like mice.

"Don't be nervous, I'm here." A lazy voice sounded above Shui Duangui's head.

Shui Duangui's heart stopped beating for a moment, and then he waved his hand upwards, holding a judge's pen with a long handle in his hand!

"Hey! I'm so willing! Little old man, no, my father! You have used up all the gifts my father gave you for your birthday?" Hou Ze gently avoided the attack of the judge's pen, smiled and stretched out his hand to flick the water to give you a brain collapse Son.

Now that he has a father, the little old man's own son approves of it. Hou Ze never forgets to show it off wherever he goes.

Shui Duangui was so nervous just now that he didn't recognize Hou Ze's voice, and he didn't react until he instinctively made a move.

Hearing Hou Ze's ridicule at this moment, I couldn't help feeling a little ashamed: "My kung fu is so bad that I didn't even hear when you came."

It's not that he's poor in martial arts, it's that he hasn't learned how to multitask.

He was so focused on feeling the vibrations from the rope and the sounds from the guards around him that he couldn't separate his thoughts.

Shui Duanfu at the other end of the rope pulled the bamboo raft with four hands and four feet and climbed quickly. The other "May [-]" was not bad either, and kept following the bamboo raft closely, passing the bamboo raft as he climbed. Make it tighter.

The raw jade stones in the warehouse are divided into piles, a total of four piles, the largest pile is sapphire rough stones, the smallest pile is white jade rough stones, and the other two piles are blue and white materials and sugar white materials.

The stones are not very big, the largest one is about a hundred catties, usually twenty or thirty catties in size.

It can be seen that the Meng family did not bring back some large stones for the convenience of transportation.

But these four piles are far from the few thousand catties that Shui Maomao guessed, but twelve thousand catties.

Because it was night, there was no light on in the storeroom, otherwise, if you look carefully with the light on, these rough stones have even removed most of the stone skin, which can be said to be the best among good goods.

Shui Duanfu kept carrying "May [-]", and couldn't tell which pile was which rough stone, and he just moved it onto the bamboo raft.

Just put a handful of grass on the bamboo raft when emptying a pile of stones, which is considered a mark.

Shui Duangui counted to fifty in his heart, then waved his hand, and the other four children shook the pulley and pulled the rope together.

This potter's wheel is not small in size, and it is made of high-quality logs.

The diameter is as long as an adult's arm, and the thickness is also two feet, excluding the handle, the overall length is nearly the length of an adult.

A shaft wood with a diameter of nearly one foot and a length of less than one foot is sheathed in the center of the pulley.

The children struggled to thread the shaft into the hole in the large stone bar that served as a anchor.

A slightly curved handle of the potter's wheel is inserted into the inside of the potter's wheel.

The handle of the potter's wheel is also made of logs, with a diameter of more than one 拃 and a length of more than half a foot. It can accommodate three adults holding the handle and twisting the water. Now it is just right for four children to work together.

Four children shake the handle of the potter's wheel, and one child is responsible for stacking the rope layer by layer.

The rope used is not ordinary, it is the fiber rope used by Shui Maomao and the others to help the canal tank boats to pull the fiber rope, and it is very strong.

Shui Maomao is a person who "plucks the wild goose's feathers". He works for the government, and if he doesn't "smooth" things, he will be sorry for his conscience.

Soon, the stones of the first bamboo raft were transported to the entrance of the cave, and the rest of the children rushed over to carry the stones.

They stood in a row and passed the stones one by one to the boats in the river.

Load a ship and ship a ship.

The boat is small, considering the draft, it can't hold many stones in one boat, and a child has to be put on the boat, so the further to the back, the more difficult it is to carry.

Fortunately, the jade was stolen smoothly.

Hou Ze was on the ground to help watch, and he stopped all the threats posed by the four guards in time, so that none of the guards noticed that the warehouse was in trouble.

But Shui Duanfu and the others didn't even dare to wear shoes, for fear of making noise.

Because the other end of the tunnel leads to the river, a lot of water seeps into it, and the tunnel is relatively slippery, making the bamboo rafts slide smoothly in it.

When it was almost dawn, the warehouse was finally emptied.

Hou Ze asked the children to load a few big stones in the river onto the bamboo raft, and Shui Duanfu pulled them over to fill the hole with these stones. The two of them lay on the bamboo raft and did not want to move.

Just wait for them to pull themselves out.

They stole the most expensive and heaviest things in their lives.

exhausted.
