Rebirth: Outstanding

Chapter 20: Am i a boss?

Shi Yehui and Jiuwenlong used a rented minivan to collect vegetables from the countryside in the New Territories of Kowloon, and then took a boat to cross the sea to bargain goods at the Hong Kong Island barracks. Although Shi Yehui was often scolded in front of Song Tianyao for incomprehensible expressions, there was one Advantages, to be honest, Song Tianyao told him not to use the British army as an idiot to make profits like other vegetable farmers. He was determined not to make money. Before, he guaranteed the daily truck rental and sailing across the sea. Occasionally, I have to lose some gas money because of the sudden price increase of vegetables. Since Jiuwenlong’s foot injury has healed, even the trucks are no longer rented. Instead of using trucks to deliver food to the military camp on Hong Kong Island once a day, two people each have a pole, once in the morning and once in the afternoon. Pick dishes and take the ferry and tram to the barracks.

Speaking of fighting, the ten Shiyehui may not be able to beat the Jiuwenlong, but when it comes to walking with weights, the Jiuwenlong who has been practicing martial arts for many years is really not an opponent of Shiyehui who has been patrolling the city and wading on a pair of legs.

And after his foot injury healed, he was left with some disabilities. He walked slowly and looked like an ordinary person, and was somewhat lame when running or swiftly.

"Brother Hui, that Secretary Song asked you to rent a truck, so why bother to carry the pole by yourself? Continue renting the truck?" After Jiuwenlong got on the cross-sea ferry, he put the pole down and straightened his waist and walked to the side of the boat to blow the hair. , Wiping sweat to Shi Yehui who was also wiping sweat with a sweat towel next to him.

Shi Yehui waited until he wiped off his sweat before glaring at Jiuwenlong. Jiuwenlong looked down at his clothes and asked, "What's wrong? Did I wash my face in the morning?"

"You are on the street and eat so much for three meals a day? I don't save a little bit, and Fen's wife's shop is eaten up by you! Secretary Song took out the money to make money, not to ruin me every day. Of course, I can save it. Something." Shi Yehui became more and more angry, and reached out and patted Jiuwenlong's head: "I don't save the fare, you rush to the street every day to complain about the lack of oily food, where are the chicken legs or pig's feet!"

Since Jiuwenlong followed by his side and began to help deliver food, Shi Yehui no longer had the strong hatred of this young man, but he still looked at this guy not pleasing to the eye because he had to deal with tobacco and alcohol once and it was too late to return. I wanted to stay in the grocery store temporarily for one night, but in the face of Fen's wife, this Pujie told myself to live in an empty room on the second floor! I don't know if this Pujie said this on purpose, forcing myself to shook his head and refused in front of Fen's wife.

In addition to the two shortcomings of not knowing what to say and being able to eat, Shi Yehui feels that this guy is his qualified little brother for most of the time, willing to endure hardships, strong, and obedient.

Seeing that Jiuwenlong took out half a box of cigarettes from his pocket and handed it to himself first, Shi Yehui even felt that he didn't understand the shortcoming of observing words and colors, and Jiuwenlong had also improved.

"Brother Hui, I'm going to take revenge in two days. I'm afraid that I won't be able to help you. It's better to rent a truck to deliver food as you used to." After Jiuwenlong helped Shi Yehui light a cigarette, he lit another one by himself. He vomited a ring of smoke, pressed his arms on the railing of the ferry, and said, looking at the gray-blue water outside the ferry.

Shi Yehui looked at Jiuwenlong. He asked about the origin of Jiuwenlong before and knew why the other party was injured. However, Jiuwenlong never said that he wanted to take revenge. Already limped, I should be disheartened and had no idea of ​​revenge, but I didn't expect to mention it at this time:

"Vengeance? Your head is broken, you have a green sweat! I have specifically asked people about the double bonus red stick with the prefix. Do you know what is called the double bonus red stick? Your brother Hui, I can fight like this, it was just a blessing at the beginning Xingsijiuzai! You go to avenge him, do you want to limp your other foot?!"

"I don't understand the two red sticks of ghosts. He is different from me. He is a person with two hands. Isn't it three heads and six arms? I'm not afraid." Jiuwenlong scratched his half-length hair, which hadn't been cut for several months, and his tone was affirmative. Said: "Last time there were many other people, if one-on-one, I won't lose."

Shi Yehui stared at Jiuwenlong and said, "Even if you win? You will be killed by tens of thousands of people at the beginning of the word. You will avenge the sweaty youth. Are you going to fight them all? No, I don't agree with you. You follow me. I can save your life when I deliver food. I don’t want you to find a chance to die. The salted fish Shuan Ashuan you have never seen was burned to death by people from the rivers and lakes. Either I, Fen’s wife, or even show Either way, I hate people to go to the rivers and lakes the most. If you insist on taking revenge, only if we don’t know you."

"Don't you get grudges?" Jiuwenlong replied lazily to Shi Yehui, and flicked the soot into the sea: "I limped off my feet, maybe I won't be able to get my wife out in the future. This kind of deep hatred is unreasonable. Let him go? Either he will die or I will die? I am not afraid of death."

Shi Yehui said solemnly: "Take revenge? Of course, you want revenge. You can find Secretary Song, and let Secretary Song take revenge for you."

"A secretary, it's hard to say whether you can beat Brother Hui, you said that, don't you want Secretary Song to die?" Hearing Shi Yehui talked about Song Tianyao again, Jiuwenlong said disdainfully.

Shi Yehui casually patted Jiuwenlong's head several times in a row: "Push on the street! Secretary Song will be killed? He eats his brain! Not like you and me, no, not like you, only stupid strength , Secretary Song is willing to avenge you, just need to say a few words, that sweaty young man can order the coffin in advance?"

"A few words? Secretary Song is like a roadside goddess. Okay, then you can ask Secretary Song to avenge me. Is it really that powerful?" Jiuwenlong rubbed and was beaten by Shi Yehui. The lower head said with a smile.

"Why does Secretary Song want to help you for no reason? You are now helping Secretary Song to deliver food and do things, he will naturally take care of you in the future, not to mention revenge, you can make women wait in line for you to pick up your wife slowly. "Shi Yehui stood up while speaking, ready to continue to carry the pole.

"Brother Hui, you helped Secretary Song work so hard, and praised him all day long. Did Secretary Song take care of you?" Jiuwenlong asked curiously behind Shi Yehui.

The mother and daughter of Fen have a good impression of Song Tianyao. Jiuwenlong already knows that because the salted fish bolt died to save Song Tianyao, Song Tianyao put the mother and daughter properly, but Shi Yehui did not see any care, but often He was scolded by Secretary Song when he was talking to himself.

Shi Yehui picked up the pole and walked to the gate to line up, and said to the Jiuwenlong behind him: "Help me calculate 200 yuan a month and deposit it with Sister Yun, and use it as I need it, otherwise I can use the money to support you like this. Eat goods. Zhongyou, my parents’ ashes were also invited from the rural Yizhuang to Donglin Temple to support, but Secretary Song has not told me about this. It was Sister Yun that went privately when I was going to Yizhuang to burn incense for my parents. Tell me. In his eyes, I'm the waste material he doesn't look down on. He has done so much. Do you think this is taking care of me? I don't think Secretary Song is smart, so I can only work hard?"

"Hey, it sounds like Secretary Song is pretty good... Go in line behind! Squeeze again? Do you want to fight!" Jiuwenlong saw a few disembarking people line up unruly, and squeezed in front of Shi Yehui. , So he walked to the front of Shi Yehui, and pushed a few people who were eager to get off the boat and jumped into the line. Two of them wanted to speak swearing, but they saw that the Jiuwenlong had already held both hands and the joints were crackling at any time. Ready to fight, immediately bowed his head obediently, and went to the back to line up like everyone else.

When the line was finished, Jiuwenlong continued to say: "Then I will go fishing for some eels after I deliver the dishes, and I will go to visit Secretary Song and ask him to ask for a wife for me..."

"Fishing your mother!" Shi Yehui kicked Jiuwenlong from behind: "Give me food! You might as well call Jiuwenlong instead of Jiuwenlong! Go to the street!"

Jiuwenlong dared to be angry and didn't dare to speak, shut up and stood up. Shi Yehui's gangster posture caused shocked expressions on the men who had been driven by Jiuwenlong just now. I don’t know that this is wearing black-rimmed glasses. But where is the sacred guy dressed as a vegetable farmer, he shut up the sturdy young man with one kick.

...

As usual, the two rushed to the Xiyingpan Barracks. Harry, the big-nosed quartermaster of the barracks, was already very familiar with Shi Yehui. The quartermaster would also ask the soldiers to check whether the vegetables were fresh, Master. Hui's vegetables are often sent directly to the warehouse for weighing and storage.

After unloading the green vegetables, Shi Yehui took out a piece of paper from his pocket with a wavy note, remembering the number, and handed it to the quartermaster who was watching them unloading: "Forty-two catties of radishes, fifty-seven catties of goose, five kale. Eleven catties, 37 catties of watercress, and 35 catties of cucumber."

Several British soldiers in charge of munitions have already begun to weigh the vegetables. After the weight has been properly weighed, the quarters officer over there has already spoken in Chinese with the quirky accent that he has practiced in dealing with vegetable farmers every day: "High, I need your help with something."

"What's the matter?" Shi Yehui, whose real name is Gao Minghui wiped his sweat, panted and asked the quartermaster Harry, "What kind of vegetables do you need? Broccoli? Broccoli? I can help the sir to ask the vegetable farmer when I go back next time. , If you need it urgently, I will bring it for you this afternoon."

The quartermaster often asked him to help pay attention to some rare dishes for senior officers or his wife before. He thought that Harry was just asking him to help find some vegetables today.

"No, no, it's not Qingcai. When you go to the Admiralty Barracks in the afternoon to deliver food, the quartermaster there, Mr. Bruce, will also tell you the same thing. Mr. Bruce and I have talked about this before. Gao, you are a trustworthy person. Good guys, we deliberately asked someone to investigate you a few days ago and found that you are the most honest of all the people who deliver us food, more honest than those Indians, you will not occupy us soldiers It’s cheap, and you won’t trade a small amount of food for a lot of supplies, and you often help my wife and children alone bring some rare greens. Mr. Bruce and I have a good impression of you. Now those Japanese leftovers in the warehouse There are not many supplies. We are going to appoint you as the vegetable supplier for the three military camps on Hong Kong Island. If we do well, we can also suggest to the military camps in Kowloon that they also use you to supply vegetables. Of course, this is actually We would like to invite you to purchase a batch of grain for our family members. They used to go to the market to buy flour and rice at a high price. Those Chinese grain merchants always felt that the British should spend several times the amount of money to buy grain. , You are the best person to help us save money. If you may not have enough money for the goods, we can pay you for the food first.” Quartermaster Harry put away the note that Shi Yehui handed him and put it in his pocket Take out a note and give it to Shi Yehui: "This is the amount of food needed by the families of the three barracks. After you buy the food, inform us that we can send the army truck to the barracks."

Shi Yehui took it dubiously, took a look at the Jiuwenlong who was smoking with a few British soldiers next to him, then looked at the big-nosed quartermaster Harry, and finally said uncertainly: "Me? Help you buy food? "

Quartermaster Harry nodded, looked at Shi Yehui with grey-blue eyes and said: "Your hard work, politeness and most importantly honesty have won the favor of quartermasters from the three military camps on Hong Kong Island. High, if you do this time Well, show enough ability. I think you can set up a small warehouse or a small company by yourself in the future to purchase food and vegetables for our family. You will be a lovable boss."

"Me? Am I a boss?" Shi Yehui looked at Harry and asked blankly.
