The ship boss recruited enough people and loaded all the goods into warehouses, and the ship finally sailed. After finishing his busy work, Lu Changfeng felt relieved and was finally out of danger. Lu Changfeng roared and fell straight on the deck, looking up at the blue sky, feeling indescribably relaxed physically and mentally. The boss of the ship looked at him like an idiot, thinking that this kid was tired and that he would not be deceived by him.
Life on the ship was dull and boring, so Lu Changfeng tried his best to keep a low profile. Just do whatever the ship boss asks you to do, raise the sails when you raise them, and move the cargo when you move the cargo. Because he is well-behaved, hardworking, and good at cooking, everyone likes him. Within ten days after boarding the ship, he became familiar with everyone. The boss of the ship simply transferred him to the kitchen and worked full-time as a chef. He did not have to work hard on other tasks on the ship.
There were five boats in total, and they were huge. Especially the main ship that the ship boss and the others were on was a giant at sea that Lu Changfeng had never seen before, with a height of four stories. On this voyage, there were more than a hundred shipwrights and sailors, plus fifty or sixty guards, and they were carrying a warehouse full of goods, weighing more than ten million kilograms.
According to the boss of the ship, Old Han, the fleet belongs to the Shen family. The Shen family is not only a famous merchant family in Leiyun Continent, but also a martial arts family. This trip to sea was led by Shen Xinqin, the eldest daughter of the Shen family, to the Starfall Empire's Tiger Shark Port for delivery. Miss Shen lives in the Accord on the top floor of the ship, and servants like Lu Changfeng have no chance to see her.
On the deck, the evening breeze was blowing, and Old Han and a group of sailors were drinking.
"Come on, brother Lu, thank you for your hard work. It's our first time drinking, so I'll give you a toast first!" Old Han said with an honest smile while holding up his wine glass.
Lu Changfeng replied: "Brother Han, thank you for taking care of me." Lu Changfeng drank it all in one gulp and suddenly spit it out, breathing heavily: "This wine... tastes weird."
Old Han's face turned red: "Brother, this is a joke. My brother bought this wine from Guo Laowu in Yuntian Port. It cost five copper coins a bottle. I'm afraid the dirty money this kid earned was watered down. There's nothing you can do about it, from the dock. Things are no better than those in the interior, not only are they not as good, they are also more expensive.”
"No wonder, Brother Han, please wait a moment. I'll get some good wine for you." There are several large bottles of wine stored in Nangong Xiu in the Qiankun bag, which Lu Changfeng brewed without telling his wife. He didn't want to expose the Qiankun Bag in public, so he went to the kitchen as an excuse and took out two bottles of Bamboo Leaf Green.
After opening the bottle cap, a strong aroma of wine spread out. Lu Changfeng filled them with wine. Amid everyone's exclamations, Old Han picked it up and took a sip, smacking his lips and saying, "This wine...is sinful!"
Everyone wondered: "Boss, what's wrong?"
Old Han let out a long sigh: "I'm afraid the royal wine in the palace is nothing more than this. It's too wasteful. Brothers, pour it back quickly and leave a small sip for each of them. We have to drink this wine slowly. We It will be several months until we reach the shore! By the way, where did you find this wine?"
Is it that exaggerated? Lu Changfeng said casually: "I brewed this wine myself. Brother Han likes to drink it, but I still have a few bottles. Let the brothers drink these two bottles tonight and enjoy themselves."
Everyone cheered in unison, drank the wine in one gulp, and everyone praised him.
"I didn't expect that brother not only cooks good food, but also makes such good wine. If you ask me, you have such skills, you are really overqualified to come to this ship. When you go back, open a restaurant to ensure a prosperous business and a lot of money. Brothers They all go to work for you.”
"Brother Han is joking. I swore to the master who taught me how to make wine, not to sell wine, so as not to steal his business. However, if brothers like to drink, I will brew a few tanks for you when I get back."
"That's it, that's such a pity. Hey, the most pity is that we can't make wine on this ship." Old Han sighed, and suddenly said: "Even though my brother still has a few bottles, he should drink it sparingly. With such a beautiful wine, we can't wait for it." You are a rude person, drinking from cows like this is too wasteful.”
Old Han glanced at everyone, then suddenly remembered something, and said: "Brother, don't sleep on the same bunk, and don't put the wine in the kitchen. These guys are so cruel. You guys, go and clean up Brother Lu's room tomorrow. Put out the wine, lock the door, and give the key to Brother Lu. You can't steal the wine, do you understand?"
The sailors laughed and said, "I know, the boss ordered me, but how dare we do it?"
Finally having his own room, Lu Changfeng was happy: "Thank you so much, Brother Han. I accept your kindness. But in my opinion, this wine should be kept by Brother Han, and I can keep a bottle for myself." .”
Old Han was elated: "Brother Lu is really a real man, a real man." He pointed at the others and said, "Look, this is my real brother, generous. You guys, all do your best. Whoever behaves well, I will Give him a sip."
Everyone laughed, and the deck was filled with joy.
Suddenly I heard a woman shouting: "Who is the cook? Miss, please cook some more vegetables. Do you understand the rules? Miss has not eaten yet, and you have already eaten."
A girl dressed as a servant led a woman down from upstairs. This woman is wearing a yellow skirt, with a graceful figure, a pretty face, and a haughty look. She is a complete ice beauty. It seems that she is the eldest lady of the Shen family that Old Han mentioned. The sailors had been on the ship for many years and rarely saw women, so they were all stunned.
Miss Shen glanced at the deck, and her cold gaze made all the sailors feel cold in their hearts. They lowered their heads and did not dare to look again. The eldest lady Qiong sniffed, her cold face gradually relaxed, but she suddenly said coldly: "Who asked you to drink while sailing? Stand up for me."
Everyone's faces were ashen. They shouldn't be drinking while sailing, and if they let the eldest lady catch them, their wages would probably be deducted. Old Han stood up helplessly: "Miss, it's me."
The eldest lady frowned and said: "Old Han, you are also an old master, how could you make such a big mistake? Your wages will be halved this month, can you accept the penalty?"
If you deduct half of the salary, it would be almost a month of work in vain. For poor workers like Lao Han, the punishment is too harsh. Lu Changfeng felt sorry and stood up and said: "Miss, wait a minute, I gave this wine to everyone. It has nothing to do with Brother Han, please punish me if you want!"
The pretty maid scolded: "How dare you, who are you? How dare you talk to the eldest lady like this."
The eldest lady waved her hand, indicating that it was okay, her beautiful eyes swept over Lu Changfeng, and said slightly angrily: "Who are you?"
Lu Changfeng said respectfully: "Little Lu Changfeng..."
"I didn't ask your name, I asked you what you do on the ship? Seeing that you are not old, why are you on the ship?" The eldest lady said impatiently. She really didn't need to know much about this kind of handyman.
A guard next to him laughed and said, "Haha, who do you think you are? Will the lady ask your name? Are you stupid?"
These guards relied on their high cultivation and usually looked at people through their nostrils. They didn't take sailors like Lao Han seriously at all, let alone handymen like Lu Changfeng. People under the eaves had to lower their heads. Lu Changfeng heard the ridicule, but didn't take it to heart. He lowered his head and said, "I am a chef. I specialize in cooking for everyone."
Miss Shen said curiously: "Oh, such a young chef? Old Han, you won't hire a child laborer, right? According to the rules of our Shen family, child laborers are not allowed to be employed."
