"Damn it! Where did the third mate on our ship go? Ulyanko!!" The bosun shouted loudly: "You idiot, I asked you to recruit new sailors on board to help move the cargo, what the hell are you doing? Why don’t you go quickly?”
"I'm sorry, boatswain! I've tried my best to look for it, but basically I can't find any helper!" Third Officer Ulyenko explained in a low voice: "Now every cargo ship is rushing to recruit new sailors, so we have to raise the salary. I can’t find anyone to pay me!”
"You bastard! You know how to prevaricate!" The boatswain snorted angrily: "If Captain Haddock finds out that you are lazy and inactive, he will have to skin you!"
"Hey, I wonder which ship still needs temporary sailors?" At this time, a pair of sailor brothers pulling a huge iron cart suddenly came from the distance. The car walked to the edge of the pier.
One of the sailors was Guan Heng. He put his hands around his mouth and shouted: "We brothers want to be sailors together, but there is no reward. We just need to let us brothers take a boat to the next port and take the push truck with us." Just get in the car and get on the boat!”
That cart was the shape of liquid metal that Guan Heng had changed with a controller. It was completely different from a sports car. From the appearance, it was just a weird tin car. Because the style of a sports car was unique in that era, Guan Heng therefore liked it. In order not to attract attention, its appearance was changed!
"Huh? There are stupid sailors who don't want to be paid?! Go and have a look!" Immediately, more than a dozen stewards on the ship gathered around!
"Hey, yellow-skinned boy, look at your young age, do you have any strength?"
"Being a sailor is a physically strenuous job. You need to have at least several hundred kilograms of strength in your arms. Can you do it? Everyone, am I right?"
"It's just that you don't look very strong. Don't let the cargo weigh you down again! Hahaha!"
"Can't you trust me? Okay, everyone give in!" Full of confidence, Guan Heng walked up to a box weighing hundreds of pounds, stretched out his arms and lifted the box above his head. He walked around three times in a row. The anger doesn’t come out, the face doesn’t change color!
Finally, Guan Heng put down the box easily and asked, "How is it? Is my strength okay? Who is willing to hire us?"
"Young man, you are so powerful! Come to my ship! Even if you don't want a salary, I can provide you brothers with enough food, including white bread, butter and fruit for every meal!"
"Don't listen to him, young man, butter and white bread are not delicious!" Another person took a fancy to Guan Heng's strength, and he shouted to recruit: "You brothers, come to our boat, we can eat salted fish and bacon here as you like!"
The crowd was noisy for a while, and everyone wanted to recruit this seemingly inconspicuous boy with magical power to their own ship, because Guan Heng's strength was at least as strong as five or six strong boys, and he didn't want any reward!
At this time, someone couldn't help but asked strangely: "Young man, what is the use of bringing such a broken iron car?"
"I'll tell you the truth!" Guan Heng said with a slight smile: "Our brothers are jugglers from China, a country in the far east. This iron cart is an important tool for our livelihood, so we have to take it with us..."
"Ahem, Ah Heng, be careful. The boatswain of the Unicorn is paying attention to us!" Because she was paying attention to the surroundings, the sharp-eyed Qin'er noticed someone coming. At this time, she quickly pulled Guan Heng's skirt to remind her, Qin'er has transformed into a short man with a dark complexion. Others can't tell that she is a beautiful girl.
"What should we do now?" Qin'er asked immediately.
"Just calm down and watch my performance!" Guan Heng, who was confident, smiled slightly and suddenly turned over on the iron cart!
Guan Heng first came over with several kites and turned over, and then a golden rooster stood firmly on the roof of the iron car. He shouted loudly: "You good guys who go to sea and run boats, you have been drifting on the sea for several months or even several days." Years ago, so our brothers would sometimes perform jugglers on cargo ships to earn a living. Whoever is willing to take us and the iron truck in will be our next boss!"
"We are willing! We agree to all your conditions!" The first mates and second mates on several ships were rushing to hire Guan Heng and Qin'er. At this time, the boatswain on the Unicorn broke through the crowd and walked closer. He said: "Young man, apart from not wanting to be paid and wanting to get on the ship with the iron truck, do you have any other requirements?"
"Uh, about this..." Guan Heng rolled his eyes and stood up from the iron car with a sigh. He walked up to Boatswain Pete and said: "My brother and I actually like to drink two drinks. If there are enough drinks on the ship, That would be the best!”
"Hahaha! You like wine, but you have such a bad temper with me! Then you should board our Unicorn!" The boatswain raised his thumb and pointed at the cargo ship docked not far behind him. He said with a smile: "We are alone. The Horned Beast is a cargo ship specially designed to transport fine rum to the Spanish royal family!”
"I can't promise to satisfy your other requests!" the boatswain said, patting his chest: "But for the sailors who board our ship, I have enough control over wine!!"
"Okay, then our brothers will be sailors on the Unicorn!" Guan Heng and Qin'er looked at each other and gave a knowing smile, and then he shouted: "Everyone, please disperse, I want to push the iron cart aboard It’s a boat!”
The stewards on each ship were very sorry to see that they could not hire Guan Heng, a strong man, to come on board to help, so they left in twos and threes shaking their heads in anger.
Boatswain Peter led the way and walked to the Unicorn ship. He found Captain Francis Haddock and told the matter. The bold and bearded captain immediately welcomed Guan Heng and Qin'er: "Hahaha, Welcome aboard my Unicorn, there is no bad boy among the good-drinking seamen, Guan Heng, and this little brother, your name is Aqin, right?"
"Well, wait until tonight, old Haddock will open a few boxes of rum for you to hold a welcome party!" Francis waved his hand carelessly and said: "That's it! Don't be restrained then, let's have a good drink together!"
"Thank you very much, Captain Francis!" Guan Heng quickly bowed respectfully, and then quietly said to Qin'er: "You are indeed the ancestor of the captain we know. He always looks for opportunities to drink!"
"Pfft!" Qin'er almost stopped laughing. She quickly covered her mouth, for fear of showing some girlish behavior. It would be bad if it aroused suspicion!
That night, the Unicorn, which had already set sail, held a grand welcome party on the deck to welcome the arrival of Guan Heng and "Aqin". Guan Heng's strength was indeed amazing, and he was of great help to the sailors on the ship. Don't be busy, everyone loves him and Qin'er very much!
