    Toot, toot¡ª

    Under the clear blue sky, the waves on the sea surface were undulating. As the whistles from far and near gradually stopped, the ship Neptune docked. The sailors on the deck immediately became busy, dropping anchors and mooring ropes, and there were a lot of chatter, laughter and shouts.  Then passed into the port.

    ¡°Is this Goodtown? The air is so damn good, there¡¯s no fishy smell.¡±

    Looking at the busy port ahead and the looming town in the distance, the two sailors leaning on the deck railing raised their heads and took a deep breath. After years of sailing in a sea full of dangers, the moment of docking always makes people feel peaceful and excited.

    Listening to his partner's interesting words, the long-haired sailor casually took off his hat embroidered with the totem of a giant whale leaping into the ocean, nodded and said with a smile: "Yes, I come here several times a year. In a poor place, few people are willing to go out to sea to fight.  Fish, a group of farming country bumpkins, all have no culture. But the scenery is good, and the most important thing is that there are enough pubs, the drinks are cheap enough, and the women are tender enough" The short-haired sailor's eyes suddenly lit up, and his interest became more intense: "Then you really have to try it.  ¡±

    "What do you mean to taste?", "Hahaha!"

    In autumn, the morning at Goodtown Port is always a lively scene. As one of the main trading ports in the Dongrao Rock area, a large number of trading ships arrive here every day, and a large number of trading ships leave.

    The coming and going of these trading ships brought prosperity to Goodtown and also brought a lot of work of loading, unloading and moving goods.

    "Hurry up, there is still a shipment of goods today, move it quickly!", "Damn old thingI will quit sooner or later! Go back to plowing the fields and see who you yell at.", "Come and help me carry my shoulders!"

    In the Qingfeng warehouse, sacks filled with rice and grain are piled up like a mountain, and workers are constantly moving them. The boss¡¯s shouts and encouragements can be heard, and there are also workers muttering and cursing.

    "Huhhuh" A black-haired boy with bronze skin stood in front of the pile of sacks, panting slightly, but there was no trace of laziness on his face. He stared at the pile of yellow-brown sacks in front of him, thinking silently in his heart,  Soon, that's enough!

    When he thought that his dream for many years could come true, the young man's heart became hot, and the gnawing fatigue was swept away. He suddenly turned his head, looked at the warehouse manager Jino not far away, and shouted: "Manager Jino, I want to move three bags this time.  !¡±

    "Three guarantees?" The old man Jino looked surprised, which made the wrinkles on his forehead deeper. The old man looked at the sweaty young man, and at the same time he was relieved and felt bitter for him again.  The boy's name is Xin Lie, and Jino has almost watched him grow up. The seventeen-year-old Xin Lie has been working here for five years, and has grown from an ignorant child to the tall, handsome and green boy he is today.

    In the past few years, the weather in the four seasons was abnormal, and farmers lost their harvests year after year. In order to make a living, Xin Lie's parents had to leave their hometown and board a ship to work on the distant Fei'an Island in Aizhou.  In exchange for this, there was no news from now on. No one would care about the lives of a ship of civilians, except for various rumors: the ship encountered a storm at sea, the ship sank, and everyone died; the ship simply  Not going to Aizhou, the villagers were deceived

    Five years after his parents left, Xin Lie's grandfather, who depended on each other for life, became ill from overwork and died after falling ill. Xin Lie was only twelve years old that year.

    In another five years, Jino took great care of Xin Lie. On the one hand, he and Xin Lie's grandfather were old acquaintances; on the other hand, he liked Xin Lie very much as a person. He was a child who lost his loved ones at a young age and did not beg for help from others.  , live entirely by your own hands!

    What makes the old man even more happy is that Xin Lie did not give up his dreams and progress because of the difficulties in life.

    Jino knew that he had been working hard to make money in order to save enough to apply for the Giant Rock City Warrior Academy.  Although some people have said "I want to become a warrior" before and have worked hard for it, the old man always feels that Xin Lie is different from those guys who give up halfway. He believes that this kid will not stay in ancient times all his life.  From Dezhen, no.

    "Haha, three bags?" A burst of sudden laughter sounded in the warehouse. The laughing bearded man leaned against the mountain of sacks. He supported his waist with one hand and said with a weird smile on his face: "Xin Lie, you are such a boy.  Small waist, three packs at a time, it will be broken!" Before he finished speaking, there was a burst of piercing laughter from all around, and the workers were delighted, especially a few minions, who even laughed deliberately.

    Another man bowed down and bowed to Xin Lie, while pretending to be serious: "Hey, what are you worried about? Xin Lie is a warrior, so he is different from us dock coolies!  Not to mention three packs, thirty packs are no problem!¡±

    Seeing him continue to worship in a funny way, everyone¡¯s laughter became louder and louder, ¡°I think it¡¯s a hundred packets, right?¡±, ¡°You¡¯re so underestimating him, three hundred packets!¡±

    "That's enough!" Jino glared at the noisy thorns, looked around at the workers, and shouted: "No need"Live!  ?  Go and work on your own!  "

    When the boss spoke, everyone stopped. Many people curled their lips and still whispered something softly.

    A few years ago, Xin Lie was just a child who was new to the world. He once accidentally talked about his dream. Unexpectedly, the coolies often used it for fun. Life at the dock was too depressing, and there was always someone to make jokes.

    However, Xin Lie has an unyielding temper, so the two sides will have some verbal frictions from time to time. If it weren't for Jinuo, I'm afraid they would have had fist fights.

    "General Manager Jino." Xin Lie clenched his fists tightly with a determined look in his eyes. He didn't care what those people were saying because he knew what he wanted. "Please record it, three guarantees!"

    "Xin Lie" Jino was a little hesitant. There were many people in the whole dock who could carry three bags at a time, and only a few could carry three bags at a time all year round. Although Xin Lie was strong and strong, he was still a seventeen-year-old boy after all.  At his age, being able to carry two bags at a time is already quite impressive!  The old man has been the general manager for decades, and Xin Lie is the first in the record under the age of 20, but now he wants to change it to three packages at a time

    A childish figure vaguely appeared in front of Jino's eyes, struggling to hold a bag of sacks in both hands, and walking out of the warehouse with sweat on his face The figure slowly overlapped with the boy. Three bags are too many!  The old man walked towards Xin Lie. The wrinkles on his face made his face more kind. The water-filled pen in his right hand did not move for a long time. He advised: "Listen to me, just two packs."

    Xin Lie smiled slightly, shook his head and said: "Manager Jino, just three guarantees, I can do it."

    Looking at Xin Lie¡¯s deep black eyes, Jino pondered for a long time. Whether it was the childish figure or the young man in front of him, their eyes were so firm.  "Okay." After saying that, the old man made a few strokes on the account book in his hand and added three packs to Xin Lie's daily allowance.

    Hearing Jino say hello, Xin Lie took a deep breath, walked towards the pile of sacks in front of him, shouted lowly, and lifted two bags of rice to his shoulders with both hands at the same time. His feet suddenly sank, veins on his arms loomed, and his face was expressionless.  He is already used to the strange color and two packs!

    "Luo Tai, come help Xin Lie put a bag on his shoulder." Jino waved to a young coolie next to him. Luo Tai was an honest man and never participated in conflicts, so the old man was not worried that he would deliberately embarrass Xin Lie.

    Luo Tai responded and was about to leave, but suddenly he saw several coolies in the distance looking over. It was the guy who laughed the most happily just now. Their sneer expressions clearly told him to give Xin Lie some color.  have a look.  Luo Tai couldn't help but frown, and was trembling in his heart. Those people were a gang of bullies among the dock coolies. If he went against them, I'm afraid

    In fact, Xin Lie is a very good person. If possible, he really doesn¡¯t want to do this Luo Tai walked over slowly. He didn¡¯t understand the reason. He only knew that he couldn¡¯t go against those bullies. He didn¡¯t want to cause trouble!

    A trace of apology flashed across the young face, and he sighed secretly. He had already raised a sack with both hands, aimed it at the shoulders of Xin Lie, who was half squatting, and put it down heavily!

    Peng!  A strong force came, and his left shoulder suddenly seemed to collapse. Under the scorching eyes of the coolies, Xin Lie was caught off guard, his body swayed suddenly, and he was about to fall!  He gritted his teeth, tightened the muscles in his hands and arms, and the veins protruded like a crouching dragon, "Drink!"

    ?????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????

    "Be careful, be careful!" Jino shouted, and he breathed a sigh of relief when he saw Xin Lie regaining his footing.

    The coolies who were waiting to see the show looked shocked, what the hell is going on

    It¡¯s not surprising that Xin Lie can carry three bags at a time, but when his body loses balance, he can actually regain it?  This guy's physical fitness is so good

    The coolies were shocked and jealous, and finally turned to anger. They glared at Luo Tai with vicious eyes and said sarcastically: "You piece of garbage, you can't even hold a bag, haven't you eaten?!", "Luo Tai"  Tai, your father died early and your mother is willing to sell it! Is there any need to starve!?", "Just his mother? Who will do it?"

    Listening to these gloomy words, Jino frowned and was about to say something: "You"

    Luo Tai¡¯s face was full of humiliation, and his clenched fists were trembling slightly. Don¡¯t cause trouble, don¡¯t cause trouble

    "Come on." Xin Lie, who was carrying three bags of rice, suddenly spoke out, interrupting Jino's words. His cold eyes scanned the crowd, scanning the surly and ferocious faces, like a sharp knife, piercing everyone's heart.  heart.

    There was an eerie calm in the entire warehouse. A drop of hot sweat slipped quietly from Xin Lie's forehead and hit the ground. He scanned everyone and finally stopped at Cha Jun. He panted slightly and shouted coldly again: "Come on, Cha Jun."  , stop talking nonsense, if you have the guts, come -"

     Do these scumbags only know how to bully honest people?  ?

    "This" Luo Tai's heart felt as if he had been punched, and his mind instantly went blank. He stared blankly at Xin Lie, who was as imposing as a wolf, as if he was stupid

    "Go away!" The bearded man strode forward, leaning against the pile of sacks. His burly body dragged a long shadow on the ground, and his upper body muscles were dark and rumbling, making it difficult to imagine how much power was hidden in it.  His name is Cha Jun, the leader of the bully gang.

    Everyone was startled and suddenly came over. Xin Lie wanted to carry four bags?  Cha Jun helped him put his shoulders on?  !  Several coolie minions suddenly looked excited and clenched their fists eagerly. Now there was really something good to watch!

    Four packs!  ?  Not many adults can afford four packs at a time!  You must know that most bags have huge differences. Sometimes all it takes is one more straw to break the cow's back. Four bags should be in Xinlie's twenty-fifth year, not seventeen!

    Jino quickly stretched out his hand to stop him, but stopped when the words reached his lips. In the end, he chose silence.  To become a civilian warrior, the road you need to walk is extremely difficult. If you can't solve even this trivial matter, you might as well give up hope early; besides, suffering some setbacks may be a good thing for that kid

    Xin Lie looked at Cha Jun who walked in front of him with a calm expression, his half-crouched body motionless, as if he was just an outsider watching the show.

    Zha Jun still had a weird smile on his face. He easily lifted a sack with both hands and said in a weird voice: "Be careful."

    "Be careful, too." Xin Lie replied softly, with a mocking smile on his lips.

    The coolies all looked at the two of them expectantly and were ready to burst into laughter. In their imagination, Xin Lie would fall to the ground immediately, like a dead dog, carrying four bags at a time?  Still so childish.

    Looking at Xin Lie's faint smile, Zha Jun felt a suffocation in his chest. He dared to speak harshly when he was about to die, "Okay, I'll let you die!"  He snorted coldly, suddenly and quickly grabbed another bag from the side, raised the two sacks high, and slammed them on Xin Lie's shoulders!

    ¡°Zha Jun¡ª¡ª!¡± Jino shouted out loudly, with shock and anger in his eyes.  "Ah!", "Haha!" The coolies also screamed and laughed uncontrollably, five packs!  Who in the warehouse can carry five packages at a time?  If they don't know each other, that's under normal circumstances, no.

    Xin Lie's eyes narrowed, and his half-crouched body suddenly rose up. There was a muffled sound, and he grabbed it with his big hand, and the sack that fell down was held tightly!

    Can you still stand firm?  !  Zha Jun was taken aback. Without thinking much, he pressed his hands on the sack, gritted his teeth and exerted all his strength to press it down. He was determined to overwhelm Xin Lie!

    "This" The coolies around had different expressions. They clenched their fists and widened their eyes. Why hasn't that kid fallen down yet? Cha Jun, knock him over!  Luo Tai and Lao Jino were also staring intently, their hearts clenched tightly, be careful!

    "Ah - ah -!"  Go back: "Drink¡ª¡ª!"

    Within a few moments, Zha Jun was sweating profusely, his palms were numb, and his heart was anxious, but no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't hold back Xin Lie's energy!  If this continues, I'm afraid

    damn it!  This damn remnant really has brute strength, but brute strength alone is not enough Zha Jun sneered secretly, slowed down his hands pressing the grain bag, shifted his strength, and was about to kick Xin Lie on the inside of his right calf.  go.

    "Ah -" With another roar, Xin Lie's legs gradually straightened, and the muscles of his two arms bulged like iron walls. He had already expected that Zha Jun was going to make a dirty move, and with a rush of strength, five bags of  The sandbag is pushed steadily!

    Oops!  Zha Jun gritted his teeth and tried to continue exerting force, but his muscles suddenly failed to obey at all. His legs gave out and he fell to the ground full of dust and grain.

    Silence!  Except for the rapid and heavy breathing, there was no other sound in the huge warehouse. The coolies were completely stunned. Did Zha Jun lose?  And he lost to Xin Lie who was carrying five sacks?  Zha Jun is a strong man who is stronger than an ox, while Xin Lie is just a young man who has not grown up!  The minions who had been laughing happily before looked at each other in shock. They couldn't believe this was true.

    "I can carry five bags at a time now; in the future" Sweat was dripping down. Xin Lie lowered his eyelids, looked down at Zha Jun who was sitting on the ground, and said breathlessly: "Fifty bags, five hundred bags."  , five thousand bags"

    Looking up at Zha Jun with disbelief on his face, he almost forgot about Niu Pan.  As soon as he finished speaking, Xin Lie walked out of the warehouse step by step carrying five sacks.

    Son of a bitch Zha Jun's fist gradually regained its strength and clenched it tremblingly. He couldn't help but turn around and look at Xin Lie's back. That guy could he really do it in the future?Can you become a warrior?  !  He punched the ground to vent his anger, and the sand and gravel hit his fists with pain.

    "What are you all doing in a daze? Go get to work! There is still a shipment of goods today!" After coming back to his senses, Jino turned around and shouted at the coolies. His wrinkled old face was full of energy. Five packages at a time, he was alive.  After so many years, this is the first time I see how much potential that kid has

    "Oh.", "Ouch." With a sound like coaxing, the coolies resumed the transportation, but everyone's face was filled with unbelievable disbelief. Were they really drunk?  And Luo Tai over there didn't know what he was thinking, and he didn't come back to his senses for a long time.

    Several ink characters on the account book were blurred and blurred by sweat. Jino smiled and wiped the sweat from his forehead, swiped the pen, and added two packs to Xin Lie's daily allowance.

    The sun was high in the sky, and the port was crowded with people, laughing and shouting constantly. There were sailors arm-in-arming each other, patrolling stewards from well-dressed famous families, burly and strong entourage Of course, the most numerous ones were workers carrying goods, coming and going, sweating profusely.

    After leaving Qingfeng Warehouse, Xin Lie walked steadily toward the shore. The rice bag on his shoulder was the cargo of the "Gaomai" that entered the port this morning. It came from Giant Rock City, the dream he would definitely go to.  place.

    From a distance, you can see the totem of wheat ears carved on the hull. A full golden wheat ear in the middle stands upright towards the sky, and two green wheat ears on the left and right surround it in a circle. The Gaomai is a ship with a displacement of three thousand stones.  The wooden sailing ship is not as good as the most advanced Lingshi steamship today, but its load capacity can still reach 1,500 stones.  Xin Lie didn't know much about such behemoths, but he had long been accustomed to them.

    ?????????????????????????????? Step on the relatively spacious springboard and walk forward carefully, walk onto the deck of the cargo ship, Xin Lie carries the sack and walks all the way into the stern cargo hold.

    The dimly lit cabin was stuffy and hot, and the air was filled with a sour smell of sweat. At this time, in addition to Xin Lie, there were several coolies also unloading cargo.

    With a few muffled sounds of "bang bang", Xin Lie put down the five bags of rice and exhaled a long breath. He looked at the pile of rice on the board, rubbed his sore shoulders, and breathed heavily.  , a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

    It will be enough to move an additional 50,000, 5,000, or 298 packages!
