Chapter 176 Simple Stealing Rice

Not daring to delay any longer, Li Shutong joined the snatching battle.

If he can eat half a catty of meat normally, he will eat at least one catty this time.I usually eat two bowls of rice, but now I eat three bowls and feel that I can have more.

In the end, two people ate a round belly.

After finishing the last glass of sake, Zhao Chuanxin took out a cigarette and lit it.

The waiter took small steps and stepped forward to remind: "Sir, we don't allow smoking here."

"roll!"

Now Li Shutong is like a firefighter, and immediately explained to the waiter in Japanese in a low voice: "Let him suck it, and I will give you a tip later."

Although he couldn't understand, Zhao Chuanxin guessed it and shook his head helplessly.

The country is easy to change and the nature is difficult to change.

Suddenly, a bag was pulled out from behind.Pass it to Li Shutong: "From today on, you will pay for basic necessities, food, housing and transportation. After I leave, the rest will be your living expenses."

Li Shutong, who used to be the home of Zhongming Dingshi, gradually became dilapidated because the Qing government changed the salt industry to official salt.

It's not too poor now, but it won't be long before life starts to get tough.

There is no need to count them down, he also knows that there will be no shortage of money in this bag.

Li Shutong, who didn't want to eat the cheap food, flatly refused: "Thank you for your kindness, but I don't need it."

"You still don't know me very well, who would dare not accept the money Zhao sent out?

You must know that these three words Zhao Chuanxin are definitely not in vain! "

"..."

Shit, I have heard of taking money by force, but I have never heard of giving money by force.

Seeing his twitchy look as if he had eaten a fly, Zhao Chuanxin dusted off the soot: "You don't think you will be rewarded for nothing, do you? When you return to China, remember to go to Lugang Town.

I heard that you plan to study music recently, but I want to learn piano. You should study hard and teach me how to play the piano. This is the tuition fee. "

After hesitating for a while, Li Shutong asked: "Mr. Zhao always heard about it, who told me about these things?"

Now it was Zhao Chuanxin's turn to hesitate.

He wanted to talk about what history had to say.

After a while, he smiled: "Lu Xun said it."

……

You can eat delicious food, and you can live in top-level suites.

Li Shutong felt that Zhao Chuanxin was more luxurious than his previous life.

"The top-level suite is very big, let's just live in one, without extravagance."

"Don't talk nonsense, I never share a room with a man."

"..."

That night, I slept soundly.

The next morning, after Zhao Chuanxin washed up, he knocked on Li Shutong's door.

The door creaked open, and Zhao Chuanxin said, "I thought you ran away."

Li Shutong shook the money bag in his hand: "If I didn't have this bag of money, I might have run away."

"Brother, you are a little cowardly, and you always want to escape.

Fear of difficulty is not a good habit.

Remember in the future, don't give up when you encounter difficulties, set a goal to earn him [-] million! "

Li Shutong rolled his eyes: Toad yawned so loudly!
The two had breakfast, and Zhao Chuanxin went to the watch shop, but Li Shutong found that he didn't buy anything.

Then find a rickshaw driver, tell Li Shutong the location, and let him translate it.

When he was approaching the destination, Zhao Chuanxin said to Li Shutong: "It is not easy for you to participate in this matter. So you just wait here, and I will come back to you when I am done."

Reminiscent of Zhao Chuanxin's behavior style, Li Shutong is not without worry: "It is best to act in a proper manner, after all, you are in a foreign land."

"Are you afraid that it's the opposite?"

Ignoring him, Zhao Chuanxin got out of the car.

……

Chao Haiguang was really busy, especially Zena Keith, who was not interested in his business in the past, came to add to the trouble today.

More or less, he knew it was because the man was coming today.

He hypnotized himself: That's because they are all engaged in art, Chao Haiguang, don't think about it.

It is said that when people hypnotize themselves, they should use the affirmative style.

For example, don't think blindly, you can use "be enlightened" to express.

Otherwise, the subconscious will only accept the affirmative part.

For example, don't think blindly but think blindly.

That is to say, at this time, Chao Haiguang has been implying to himself: I want to think about it...

Sure enough, a picture soon appeared in my mind.

In the picture, Zhao Chuanxin came, and Zena Keith flew up with a happy smile on her face.

He glanced guiltyly at Zena Keith who was doing nothing beside him, then lowered his head and pretended to be working.

If you think of Cao Cao, Cao Cao will be there.

There was a knock on the door, and Chao Haiguang's heart tightened.

Suddenly, he felt that this was quite exciting.

Bring a lot of adjustments to life.

"Come in."

A staff member opened the door and leaned in with half of his body: "Zhao Sang is looking for you."

Then came Zhao Chuanxin's bright smiling face: "Mr. Chao Haiguang, I'm here."

He was holding two paper bags in his hand. The material of the paper bags was just ordinary kraft paper, but they were delicately made, which gave them a simple and simple beauty.

"Zhao Sang, please come in!"

As he spoke, Zhao Haiguang glanced at Zena Keith out of the corner of his eye.

Zena Keith stood intentionally or unintentionally, so that Chao Haiguang couldn't see her expression.

Zhao Chuanxin pretended not to see the eagerness and desire in Zena Keith's eyes.

He smiled and handed the paper bag: "It's the first time I came to the door, and I brought a little gift, it's not a respect."

Chao Haiguang took it and handed it back to Zena Keith, wanting to see her expression by the way.

And this green tea has superb acting skills, and before he turned his head, he restrained his expression and smiled politely.

And Zhao Chuanxin secretly gave her a thumbs up.

Give your acting skills a thumbs up!
There was a time difference between the two of them and Chao Haiguang's turning his head.

According to the customs of the Japanese, it is estimated that they will not open gifts from friends in person.

But Zena Keith's western thinking is just the opposite.

She opened the bag directly, and saw a packing box inside. After opening it, there was the Tonneau series watch launched by Cartier just this year lying quietly inside.

Skeleton dual time zone, men's and women's models are produced using two independent mechanisms.

The watch is naturally a good watch.

"Wow! So beautiful."

Zena Keith marvels.

Looking at Haiguang, he knew that the watch was expensive: "Oh, Zhao Sang is too polite."

Zhao Chuanxin can accurately pinpoint Chao Haiguang's thinking thread every time.

If you are jealous, then I will give you money.If you think about it, I'll give you an expensive gift.

then,

Chao Haiguang fell into a very abnormal and chaotic mood and couldn't extricate himself.

"Zena, sit in my office, I will accompany Zhao Sang to visit the warehouse."

"No, I'll go too, and I haven't seriously visited your company yet."

Chao Haiguang wiped the sweat from his forehead.

Why did you go so early, you were so attentive when Zhao Sang came?
He said forcefully, "Don't make trouble!"

This time, Zhao Chuanxin praised Chao Haiguang.

What a mess, can you participate in this matter?
Zena Keith looked at Zhao Chuanxin for help.

Zhao Chuanxin turned a blind eye.

Seeing that his goal was achieved, he no longer needed to deal with her.

Grain storage warehouses are different from ordinary port warehouses, and there are many types of granaries.

Coastal granaries like Kobe are vertical silos.

Chao Haiguang said: "Every small unit here has stored 80 shims. There are at least four passes to unload from the port of entry, storage, random inspection, and exit from the warehouse. You see, we went up the steps and looked down. The storage The surface of the volume does not seem to be much, but in fact each unit is 1-2 meters deep..."

He really thought that Zhao Chuanxin came to learn from the scriptures, and explained everything to Zhao Chuanxin in detail.

This thing can't be called a commercial secret, but the details can be seen in the real chapter. What they did is impressive, and there are really merits.

Although Zhao Chuanxin was not really engaged in transportation, he watched and listened carefully.

Until I got out of this dark vertical silo and saw the light of day again.

Zhao Chuanxin asked again: "There are so many silos, if you turn them over every day to prevent mold, you will have to use a lot of workers, right?"

"No, no, Zhao Sang must be engaged in general cargo transportation. Food management is a very profound knowledge, and it must be done by experienced people.

You see, there, there, and there are all old rice. If it is out of the warehouse, we will give priority to these rice.And there and there are all imported new rice, which is expected to be stored for about two years.

This way of management will not only reduce the number of workers, but also the guards will not be so nervous..."

"Soga!"

Zhao Chuanxin can be said to leave contentedly.

"When there is a chance, I will treat you two to dinner."

"It should be me doing the landlord's friendship."

"Good talk, good talk."

Regardless of Zena Keith's crazy hints, Zhao Chuanxin turned around and left.

Lao Tzu is a god among thousands of flowers who never touches a single leaf, so how could he give you a chance?
Let's make a fuss, okay?
After finding Li Shutong, Zhao Chuanxin boarded the rickshaw he had been waiting for.

"go!"

Li Shutong asked: "How is the matter going?"

He was afraid that Zhao Chuanxin would stab Lou Zi again.

"Very bad."

Zhao Chuanxin grinned.

Li Shutong naturally knew that Zhao Chuanxin would not say what he was doing here.

But he still has a question: "We stopped at the watch store before, and you didn't buy anything. Is there any deep meaning in that?"

"I didn't buy it, but I stole some watches. Here, I'll give you one."

Zhao Chuanxin casually threw a box over.

"steal?"

After taking the box and opening it, Li Shutong was shocked.

Don't say that he has never done such a thing as stealing, he dare not even think about it.

Who the hell is stealing things.

The key point is that you still speak out openly?
"Don't worry about the details.

Dude, you can remember that if you can steal things from Japan, you can steal them if you can, and if you can't steal them, you can grab them. "

Here again, here again!

"But I didn't see your action at the time? When did you steal it?"

"If even you find out, can I still steal it?

Do you know what people in the world say about me?
He is the handsomest man among robbers, and the best son among hooligans.That's right, I am the legendary Bandit Commander——Zhao Chuanxin! "

"Hehe, I think, if I can hear the truth from you in this life, the solar energy will come out from the west!"

Li Shutong is pulling his ass with a knife——opened his eyes.

When he arrived at the port, Zhao Chuanxin said again: "You wait here."

"Don't you need me to translate?"

"It's better not to show your face, because what happens next may exceed your imagination."

It sounds like a feeling of fear.

In fact, it didn't take long. Uncle Li waited for less than an hour before Zhao Chuanxin came out.

The expected earth-shattering hot scene did not appear.

Li Shutong wondered, "Didn't you say it was beyond imagination?"

"Hehe, don't worry, let the bullets fly for a while."

As a result, nothing happened during the day, and the two had a meal and went back to the hotel to rest.

After Zhao Chuanxin ate, drank and slept, he went out in the dark without Li Shutong's knowledge.

When he came outside the wall of the granary at the port, he activated the blue ghost armor.

After two run-up steps, he floated onto the wall.

Cloaked in black, he hid in the dark night, stalking and watching on the top of the wall for a while, and then jumped down lightly when there was no movement.

According to Chao Haiguang, some new grain that has just entered the warehouse does not need to be turned frequently.

With the way they manage the granary, random inspections will be carried out after entering the warehouse. After the random inspection, this part of the new rice will not be bought for at least two to three months.

Zhao Chuanxin sneaked close to the new rice warehouse identified by Chao Haiguang during the day. There was no chain head here, and he didn't find the patrolling guards either.

In the granary, theft generally occurs, basically by insiders.

Except for Zhao Chuanxin, no one could smuggle out a large amount of grain without alarming the gate.

Such moths rarely appear in the granaries of private enterprises, because it is too difficult to bribe the guards and gatekeepers to steal grain.Even if some workers secretly put two handfuls of rice in their pockets and took them home, the loss is just a drop in the bucket.

Maybe that's why the guards are lax.

Enter the granary, linger in the small unit warehouse not facing the main entrance, and easily fill the secret space.

This trip went so well!
He secretly estimated that, based on the volume of the secret space, this trip contained at least 160 tons of rice.

Go back the same way and jump out of the wall, the next stop is the port.

The granary was very close to the port, and Zhao Chuanxin boarded the cargo ship that he had agreed to during the day, and the captain was a Chinese.

He said bluntly: "Start the boat!"

The captain was confused: "But Boss Zhao, you haven't loaded the cargo yet?"

"Stop talking nonsense and sail!"

"Okay, you have the final say when you pay."

Zhao Chuanxin strolled around the cargo hold of the freighter, and those cabins were full of rice.

After locking the cabin, Zhao Chuanxin came to the captain's cabin with the key and whistled: "Take the key, and open the cabin when you arrive on Hong Kong Island. After connecting with the Lugang Town Charity Association, they will naturally know how to do it!"

The captain was surprised and said, "Aren't you going back? Are you going to swim back to Kobe?"

Looking at the port where the lights have become dim in the night, it is quite difficult to swim back.

With a grin, Zhao Chuanxin said, "That's exactly what I mean!"

As he said that, Zhao Chuanxin jumped down the boat, and with a plop, the captain hurried to the side of the boat to look down, where was that figure?
This made the captain scratch his heart with all his claws, itching.

Weighing the key in his hand, he stamped his foot and went to the cargo hold.

Not everyone has the principles of life.

At least not this captain.

He unlocked the door and took the lantern to shine inside.

The dim yellow light of the wind lamp fluttered in the cabin, and the captain gasped!
I saw that the cargo hold was full of rice.

Every grain of rice is reflecting the yellow light of the wind lamp. When there are more rice grains and densely packed, the yellow light becomes a whole, which is very dazzling.

A bizarre "Liao Zhai"-style story was brewed in the captain's belly in an instant.

What kind of fairy descended to the earth to rescue the suffering, what kind of fox fairy repayed his kindness and gave away rice, what kind of sea dragon king turned into a man and jumped into the sea to transform into a dragon again...

It was almost midnight when Zhao Chuanxin returned to the hotel.

There was no car at night, and he was too much tossing, so he just went back and touched the pillow.

The next morning, while having breakfast, Zhao Chuanxin suddenly said to Uncle Li: "Okay, your task has been successfully completed, and I can do the rest myself.

Go back to school! "
