Chapter 9 Thomas

Not long after Master Li sent the two people away, when he was about to eat a few more mouthfuls of bread, the hatch was knocked open again. Zhang Shun suddenly got in and walked up to him.

"Young master, there is a place you should go!"

"Where? Where's Zhao Long?

"Brother Zhao has taken someone to look there!"

"Huh?" First, Zhang Shun came to report with a sneaky appearance, and then Zhao Long went out to guard in person, which made Li Mo interested? Is it possible that I just drew a huge pie here and found a vault on the ship?

"It's not such a coincidence, is it?" Thinking of this, Li Mo hurriedly asked Zhang Shun to lead the way. With the narrow passage under the deck, the two soon came to a hatch.

Seeing that Zhao Long was guarding the door at this moment, he quickly asked, "Is this here?"

"Young master, this is what Zhang Shun just found. There is a big warehouse in the back." Zhao Long arched his hand and said.

"Big warehouse? What's so strange?" Li Mo was puzzled that it was normal for such a five or six hundred-ton steamship to have two or more warehouses, especially the cabin where they were detained yesterday was not large, so he knew that this should be a multi-warehouse ship.

"Not only the warehouse, but also one person?"

"One person?"

Under the leadership of Zhang Shun and Zhao Long, Li Mo soon met the mysterious man of the two people.

A foreigner, a young foreigner, in his twenties, is quite handsome, with beautiful black curly hair. Maybe he hasn't seen the sun for a long time. His skin is whiter than that of women, and he is more durable than those with blonde curly hair!

But this is not a strange place for Li Mo, but that the young man was tied with his hands and feet and stuffed with a rag in his mouth.

"Is it because you were caught as a pig like yourself?" On the other turn, it's wrong. If you are a pig, why do you have to be locked in this hidden place alone? And he also gagged his mouth, which is obviously the treatment of sheavy criminals.

"Or did you offend the bearded captain? But what exactly did you do? Will it be tied up like this?" As Li Mo motioned Zhao Long to uncover the cloth ball in the young man's mouth, he finally ended the blind guess.

"Who are you? Where's Rudolph? Let go of me, let me go!" After the thing in his mouth was removed, the frightened man quickly withdrew his body into the corner and roared in English.

"Damn it, it's foreign language again. I don't know if your grandpa Zhang hates bird language the most!" Hearing the young man's roar, Zhang Shun kicked a few times, which made the other party stop a little.

"Grass, what is bird language? The young master also speaks foreign language!" Li Mo, who was full of black lines in his head, kicked Zhang Shun. Give me a touch!"

I'm wondering why the young master kicked him. Hearing this, Zhang Shun suddenly remembered that the young master could also speak foreign words. Didn't he treat the young master as a bird? He hurriedly lowered his head and smiled, "Ha ha, I'm not talking about the young master. How can you compare with these foreign barbarians? I'm listening to the orion in the foreign language you said!"

"The orbare is also a bird!" Li Mo stamped Zhang Shun a few feet fiercely, ignored his grinned, and sat opposite the young man.

Zhao Long bit his mouth and didn't let himself laugh. He walked to Zhang Shun and underestimated, "You deserve it." Only then did he stand behind Li Mo and protect him at any time.

Knowing that the flattery hit the horse's leg, Zhang Shun had to turn around and run to the hatch to be the gatekeeper.

"What's your name? Is it British or French? Li Mo sat opposite the man and looked at the other party carefully, "Damn it, the skin is good. After a hundred years, it will be put at the gate of the university. It is definitely the best choice!"

"Thomas. Moon, British, don't mix me with stupid Frenchmen. To be precise, I'm talking about British Jews!" The man looked at the teenager in front of him in surprise. Maybe he didn't expect the other party's English to be so fluent, but when it comes to his identity, he still looks very arrogant!

Can you not be arrogant! They are not only the people of the empire, but also a group of people who are known as "holding the secrets of sheepskin wealth". Think of those great names, Einstein, Fleming, Rockefeller, Morgan, Marcus Samuel, and the Lehman brothers.

God, even now in 1889, the economic black hands of Jews still cover the whole world!

However, this kind of arrogance has no impact on Li Mo. It's not that he doesn't know the deeds of the Jews, but that in the era of information explosion, he has heard too much and is already a little aesthetically tired.

Li Mo continued to ask with a blank face: "Why are you locked up here?"

"Where's Rudolph?" Thomas answered the question.

"It's on top! Now this ship belongs to me!" Pointing to the top, Li Mo was a little itchy. Shit, pretend to be confused with me, and you will cry later!"

"What? Is it yours? Are you pirates? Hearing that Rudolph was caught, the ship was gone. Thinking of the cruelty of the pirates, Thomas became nervous again.

"Don't be nervous." Li Mo comforted, "Tell me, why are you tied up here?"

"I'm British, student! I just wanted to take Rudolph's boat to the United States, but Rudolph lied to me. He went to Canada, so I beat him and was locked up here. I have no money. Please let me go. Thomas looked at Li Mo pitifully, hoping to arouse the pity of the teenager.

"Oh?" Li Mo twitched the corners of his mouth. Bastard, you can't make up lies. What's the difference between going to Canada and going to the United States? I really don't know anything!"

Li Mo stood up and carefully checked the large warehouse. He saw that it was full of large and small boxes, a few useless machinery, and most importantly, two small boilers. He asked in surprise, "Oh, it seems to be a misunderstanding, but Mr. Thomas, can you tell me about the following? What is the machine for?

Thomas didn't know that Li Mo had seen through his lies. Although Li Mo's English was fluent, he still believed that these short and stupid guys with big braids did not know the relationship between the United States and Canada at all. So when he heard Li Mo's question, he quickly said, "I don't know. Maybe it's the goods brought by Rudolph."

"Oh!" Li Mo gave a long oh, but the light in his eyes flashed by. It seems that there is not enough blood! Damn, otherwise how dare these foreign devils fool the young master one by one? Thinking of this, he immediately waved his hand and checked the cargo in the cabin alone.

After getting the instructions from the young master, Zhao Long didn't talk nonsense. The main reason was that Thomas couldn't understand what he said, so he was too lazy to waste his tongue and dragged the latter directly out of the cabin.

Touching a machine that he didn't know what it was for, Li Mo's eyes turned to more than a dozen oil barrels not far away. As his eyes moved, several boxes in the corner suddenly caught his attention.

The shape of the box made his heart beat faster, because he once saw this kind of box in the Military History Museum, which was...

Sure enough, as the lid of the box was lifted, the things that appeared in front of him made Li Mo excited and wanted to sing loudly. How many ashes-level military fans in China were envious of this thing in front of him!

Mauser 1888 is still a rigorous German style, but it opens the prelude to the history of modern rifles, which can be regarded as the supreme masterpiece in the eyes of military fans.

Sixty Mausers, plus five boxes of bullets and a bucket full of gunpowder, with these treasures, where else can't you go?

"God, you finally helped me!" Most of the resentment against the thief God made him travel through was resolved at this moment, but the accompanying fog made Li Mo more confused.

"Who the hell is this Rudolph? He can get the Mauser rifle that just appeared, and these machines. What on earth are they going to do? Gunpowder can be used to blow stones, but do you have to use such a good gun?

"No, these guys are by no means as simple as mining!" Thinking of this, Li Mo felt like dozens of ants scratching again. He quickly put away the rifle and took good care of Zhang Shun, who did not allow anyone else to come in except him, and immediately walked to the deck.
