Chapter 82
Although Yu Xiaotian led people to wait for news on the island north of Dalian Island first, he did not let these guys idle. In the past two days, he took them to continue to practice on the boat, and still took them personally to strengthen all their personality fighting skills.
At present, they are pirates at sea. Because of the limited conditions, there is a lack of firearms on the ship. Most of the time, they still rely on hand-to-hand combat to defeat their enemies, so they have no time to do this business and can't live long at all. This has been tested by Zhao Tong, who died before.
So these people now know the benefits. When Yu Xiaotian let them practice their fighting skills, no one dares to be lazy.
Yu Xiaotian doesn't let them practice any routines, and he doesn't have any routines himself, but he is a master of free combat and has his natural advantages in fighting.
These days, he has tried to use all kinds of long and short weapons with the descendants on the island to integrate them. He also had some tips and thought about a few moves to use, so he passed them all to everyone and asked everyone to practice and try his best to be familiar with these moves. Try to form an instinct.
But he also knows that his own tricks are certainly not smart, but there are not many masters in this industry at sea, and they pay attention to a fast word, so as long as these people are familiar with these moves, at least they will be more powerful in the future!
As for how to continue training them in the next step, Yu Xiaotian feels that he still needs to find a way to find someone for advice, but he doesn't have such a condition at present. Let's talk about it later if he has a chance.
So at present, he can only find another way to strengthen the protection ability of his subordinates. At sea, it is impossible for them to wear iron armor. Once they fall into the water without bubbles, they will immediately drown people. Therefore, wearing armor on the ship is at most good to wear leather armor, which can more or less provide some protection. Protect.
In addition, Yu Xiaotian also designed a small arm shield based on some cold weapons he knew before. This small shield is only about one foot in diameter. Generally speaking, it can be held or tied directly with a rope after being put on the arm. In this way, the left hand can be freed. Come on, hold long weapons in both hands.
However, at present, he has no materials on hand, so he can only do an experiment first. After he tried it himself, he felt that it was okay. Xiaodun can provide them with a certain degree of protection without affecting their actions. It is very suitable for protection in a narrow space. In this way, he made up his mind. In the future, all the brothers on the ship will be equipped with this small shield to somewhat strengthen their protection ability.
Of course, he also knows that this era has begun to develop from the era of cold weapons to the * era. If they want to greatly improve their combat effectiveness, they still have to rely on guns.
But at present, they don't have this ability, and there are not many ways to buy it. There is no need to consider self-made for the time being. Yu Xiaotian is confident that he can design useful guns, but at present, they don't even have a blacksmith, let alone make guns. The development of firearms is inseparable from technology, materials and machinery. Development, without this foundation, now he is considering building guns and cannons, which is simply looking at the moon in the water, so he can only find some ways to improve his combat effectiveness within a limited scope.
Now they are short of everything, which is also the reason why he is not in a hurry to get the payment for the goods of the ship. He has no intention to convert these 500 taels of silver into cash at all. The main purpose is to establish a good relationship with the owner of the Li family and supplement some of their urgent needs. Let's talk about the materials.
Before he came, he had actually discussed this idea with everyone. Although these people were a little reluctant, considering that Yu Xiaotian was also for their long-term plan, these people did not raise objections.
The reason why he did not directly propose to stewor Li to buy supplies is that he still wants to meet their owner first. Only after seeing this shopkeeper Li can he judge whether this person can be handed over or not, and whether he is worthy of their trust. Otherwise, he will still have to find a new owner in the future. Of.
At this time, if they can't find a solid and reliable nest owner to support them, it will be difficult for pirate groups like them to develop at sea, which is why Yu Xiaotian insists on waiting here to meet Shopkeeper Li in person.
With their training, the news was not difficult. Two days passed in the blink of an eye. The night after they unloaded the goods, a small sump appeared in their place. A clerk of the Li family climbed up the boat along the rope ladder and saw Yu Xiaotian. After giving a gift, he told Yu Xiaotian that they The shopkeeper is already on his way. He can go to Dalian Island tomorrow morning. Please go to Dalian Island at noon tomorrow.
Yu Xiaotian is relatively satisfied with this news. The shopkeeper of the Li family is willing to see him in person, indicating that he does not despise them too much. Although they are very weak at present and are unknown among many pirate groups, the shopkeeper Li is still willing to come to Dalian Island in person, which shows that Li will be Li in the future. The family is willing to establish a long-term relationship with them, not just because he is angry for the Li family, but just a general politeness.
After the first experience of Dalian Island, the people on the ship were not much worried about Yu Xiaotian going to Dalian Island this time. The next day, they returned to the outside of Dalian Island again. At this time, the Li family's boat was already waiting outside the dock. As soon as they saw their boat, they immediately leaned up and Yu Xiaotian, Zhao Mazi and others took the boat and sailed back to the dock.
As soon as Yu Xiaotian entered the Li family's warehouse, he saw a white and clean middle-aged man with a beautiful short must-bearded man quickly greet him from the yard. He seemed to be very familiar with him. He held his hands and said with a smile on his face, "This is determined to be the shopkeeper!" Li Yi, Shanshan came late and let the shopkeeper wait for a long time, and I hope she can forgive me! Forgive me!"
Yu Xiaotian immediately knew that this was the shopkeeper of the Li family, so he quickly hugged his fist and laughed loudly and said, "How dare you! Yu Xiaotian, today, I take the liberty to ask Manager Li to come here a hundred miles away. It should be Yu's apology! Manager Li is polite!"
As soon as Zhao Mazi saw Li Yi, he quickly trotted to Li Yi and bowed, "Zhao Hai has seen his family!"
Li Yi smiled and said, "I dare not! Zhao Hai! Yu is not your boss now! Don't call me that again! If it weren't for you, I wouldn't know the shopkeeper, and I would like to thank you!
Okay, this is not the place to talk. Please inside the shopkeeper, please! I have ordered people to prepare a little wine, so we'd better sit down and talk! Please, please!"
While talking, Li Yi came forward, like an old friend he hadn't seen for many years. He grabbed Yu Xiaotian's arm and pulled Yu Xiaotian to the back of the warehouse with a smile.
Yu Xiaotian couldn't help sighing secretly. The reason why Li Yi can revive the dilapidated family in a short time is that the level of receiving and treating people is really not low. People like him are really talking to people and talking nonsense. No wonder he can become a big businessman! The first time we met, we could be so intimate that he would have been unable to do it.
After entering the hall where they sat last time, Li Yi waved his hand and let the idle people wait to push down, and did not invite Yu Xiaotian to sit down. Suddenly, he said to Xiaotian and said, "Please accept Li's worship! Since Li learned that the shopkeeper found enemies on behalf of our Li family and helped to kill enemies, he wanted to see his benefactor day and night! Thank you in front of the kindness, but I didn't expect to see the kindness so soon, and I hope that the kindness will be worshipped by Li!"
Yu Xiaotian was in a hurry by Li Yi. He quickly went up and held Li Yi and said nothing to let Li Yi go down. He hurriedly said, "Mr. Li is too polite! You're welcome! Yu just hit by mistake and broke the secret collusion with pirates surnamed Jiang and attacked your Li family. It was not a special trip to vent his anger for Shopkeeper Li. Everything was unintentional. How could Shopkeeper Li be so polite! This word "gratitude" is indebted! This is killing Yu! Please get up quickly!"
With that, he forcibly dragged the shopkeeper Li up and pulled Li Yi to prevent him from worshipping again.
Li Yi struggled slightly and found that Yu Xiaotian was extremely powerful, so he gave up and pulled Yu Xiaotian to give him to the top position, pressed Yu Xiaotian to sit down, and then sat in front of Yu Xiaotian. Then he greeted Zhao Mazi and Liu Laoliu to sit down and asked stewor Li to quickly bring the dishes.
In a short time, a table of delicious food came to the table like water. Compared with the last time steward Li entertained them, this table was much more exquisite and rich, but today, Xiuer and two other women were not allowed to accompany them.
Shopkeeper Li personally poured a lot of wine for Yu Xiaotian, picked it up and said to thank Yu Xiaotian, "Thank you very much. Since the shopkeeper is a person of temperament, I, Li Yi, am not polite. Today, I will first have a glass of water wine and three cups of wine to the shopkeeper! I hope the shopkeeper won't refuse!"
Yu Xiaotian was no longer polite this time. He took the glass and dried three cups in a row, showing the bottom of the glass.
"Good! Yu Da's head is so bold! Sit, sit! Let's talk while eating!" Manager Li filled Yu Xiaotian with wine again, and then greeted Yu Xiaotian to sit down and talk.
After a short contact between the two sides, they felt that the relationship had narrowed a lot. Manager Li asked Yu Xiaotian where they were. Yu Xiaotian did not hide it and told Manager Li that they were temporarily on a small island south of Haitan Island. Li Yi frowned slightly and said, "Golden Treasure Island? I haven't heard of it!"
"Hehe! Treasure Island is a name given by Yu casually. It was just a small desert island before! Manager Li hasn't heard that it's natural! To tell you the truth, after killing Jiang Baihu in Fu'an County, I committed a big case. The local officials and pirates are looking for us. With our strength, we can no longer settle on the sea in the area of Funing Prefecture for the time being, so we have to be forced to go south and avoid the coastal area of Fuzhou!
To be honest, we have just gone to sea and have limited strength. In the future, we have to rely on the help of Manager Li, so that we can gain a foothold on this sea! This time, Yu took the liberty to invite Shopkeeper Li to come for a while. In fact, he just asked Shopkeeper Li for more help!" Yu Xiaotian put down his chopsticks and said to Li Yi.
Li Yi shook his head and said, "It's really polite for the shopkeeper to say so!" You are kind to me and help you, which is my part of Mr. Li! If there is any need, as long as I can do it, I will never refuse!"
After listening to this, Yu Xiaotian nodded and said, "It's really Yu's luck to see Manager Li today! Since Manager Li said so, Yu will not be polite to Manager Li!
Now Yu has just gone to sea, and all kinds of materials are in great shortage. After handing over the goods to Mr. Li this time, he wants to supplement some materials! But I don't know if Manager Li may help me get these things!"
With that, Yu Xiaotian took out another list and gave it to Li Yi.
(Wow, the second update, brothers, check it! Don't waste red tickets! Stay!)
