Chapter 533 Porter Li Zhi
In the back garden of the Qi Palace in Keelung City, in order to give Chou Chou and others a place to have fun, Li Yan specially built a huge shed in the garden. The shed was covered with various green vines to block the sunshine in the sky. Under the shed, there were various fun tools built for Chou Chou. For example, when he was in Dengzhou, the slides, Trojan horses and the like in the toy room were all moved here.
On a clearing ground under this shed, white lines are divided into five wooden fairways. Each fairway is lined with a pile of wooden bottles, each pile of ten, in a straight triangle shape, and looks very neat. Amid a scream, five round wooden balls rolling towards the wooden bottles, either fast or slow, through the fairway.
With the sound of "光", except for the wooden ball on the left that knocked down all the bottles, none of the other four wooden balls knocked down all the bottles. The most outrageous thing was the wooden ball on the right that stopped because the force was too small and the roots did not roll in front of the bottle.
"Oh~, it's great, I won again!" Yizi jumped up suddenly, and the ball on the left was her shot. Yizi was playing bowling balls made by Caier, Chou Chou, Australia and Nanyang five people. Speaking of which, Yizi is really talented and quickly mastered the skills. In just a few days, she has surpassed Li Yan and became the number one master in the Qi Palace.
As for the ball with too little strength on the far right, it was naturally thrown by Li Yan's youngest son Nanyang. He is only two years old now. Even the lightest bowling ball can only be held with both hands and pushed forward clumsyly. And every time he used too much force, he suddenly climbed onto the fairway. However, this kid was very naughty and never cried when he fell down. Instead, he liked to climb on the fairway to the bottle on the other end, and then pushed the bottle down one by one. Then he sat there and shouted at Yizi with pride: "Aunt~Aunt~"
Seeing the cute appearance of a villain in Nanyang, Li Yan, Xin and others who were watching were laughing happily. Speaking of which, Nanyang was Li Yan's eldest son, and Li Shimin asked Li Shimin to make the name clear. After thinking about it for more than a month, Li Shimin finally decided on the name Li Mian. There are many explanations for Cang, one of which refers to the ritual crown worn by emperors and literati. However, since the Southern and Northern Dynasties, only the emperor can wear Cang, and Li Shimin actually designated the name of Nanyang as Cang. The purpose of it is very interesting.
"Stinky Nanyang, I'm cheating again!" Yizi said angrily, then walked over to the small road and picked up Nanyang and spanked it. As a result, the little guy was so scared that he screamed. Later, he suddenly became aware of it and started to scream "Good aunt~ Good aunt~", but finally made Yizi giggle.
Yizi had been playing for so long. At this time, she was a little thirsty, so she put down Nanyang, ran to Li Yan and the others' table, reached out to drink a bowl of tea, and then said to Li Yan: "Sixth Brother, where did Brother Jiu go? Why can't you see anyone when you arrive in Taiwan?"
After hearing this, Li Yan showed a playful smile and said, "Don't worry, don't worry, your ninth brother, he is not here to visit Taiwan. The father has many things left to him, so in a short time, I guess you and Caier won't see him."
"Ah, I finally came to Taiwan, why did Brother Jiu have something to do again?" Yizi said unhappily. When she was in Chang'an, she had the best relationship with Li Yan and Li Zhi, but later, Li Yan went out to Chang'an for only a few times. After Li Zhi became the crown prince, he had no time to accompany her anymore. He thought that he would be with his two brothers this time, but he didn't expect that Li Zhi would disappear as soon as he arrived in Taiwan.
Seeing Yizi a little unhappy, the heart next to him immediately said: "Yizi, although Keelung is lively, there is nothing fun. Why not go to Penghu in a few days? Your sixth brother has an island there. The scenery on the island is very beautiful, and we can also swim on the island, grill fish, and pick up shells..."
"Okay, okay, let's go to Penghu. I haven't been there for a long time. I really miss the feeling of swimming in the sea!" Before Xin could finish her words, Caier rushed over and said. She was born in Tainan, not far from Penghu. She is very familiar with it and is also one of the places she wants to go the most.
Although Yizi is almost twelve years old, she grew up in the palace and has a naive personality, like a child. So when she heard that both sisters-in-law praised Penghu so well, she immediately put the matter of ninth brother Li Zhi aside and clapped her hands excitedly and said, "It's great. I've heard Sister Caier say there long ago. Sister Caier, you must teach me how to swim!"
Seeing that Yizi had diverted his attention, Li Yan also breathed a sigh of relief. He had given Li Zhi two suggestions, one was relaxed and free, and the other was very hard-working. As a result, Li Zhi chose the second one without any surprise. Now he has already started a new life under his own arrangement.
This is a wood warehouse in a shipyard next to Keelung Port. The dry warehouse is full of mountains of wood. Teams of workers are transporting these wood and then transporting it away by large carriages on the rails. Although the train has appeared now, the wood warehouse is not far from the dock. If it is used, it is too high. Therefore, this kind of carriage mounted on the rails has been used, and a large amount of wood can be transported at one time.
"Brothers, work harder. As long as we ship this batch of wood, we can rest today!" A strong middle-aged man shouted, then bent down and lifted a piece of sawed wood with another companion, took a few steps and threw it on a four-carriage carriage on the rails, making a loud "bang". He was the foreman of a transport team, with five people under his command.
"Liu Tou, don't you drink mung bean soup after you finish it?" A young man with a Jiangnan accent asked loudly. Although the weather in Taipei is not as hot as in Tainan, they all do heavy work, so they are tired and sweating profusely in a short while, so naturally they want to drink a bowl of cold mung bean soup to relieve heat.
"The little bastard knows how to drink, hurry up and finish the work. Today is the first day for Brother Yang to work. I treat you to the restaurant at the east entrance of the factory. Everyone can have a few drinks!" The middle-aged man called Liutou cursed loudly. Liutou is the oldest in this team. Although he is very rude in cursing, he is very responsible and takes good care of his brothers in the team, so he is very respected by everyone.
"Teacher Liu is so polite. If you want to invite me, I should invite you. How can I make Liu Ting pay?" A young and delicate young man next to Tiger Liu Ting smiled. He is the brother Yang mentioned by Tiger Liu Ting. He just came here to work today. His name is Yang Jiu. He looks seventeen or eighteen years old. He has a little thin figure, but he works very hard. He is shirtless like others, but his skin is white, tender and delicate, which is obviously different from the dark skin of other workers.
"Brother Yang, don't be polite. This is the rule here. Every new brother, Liu Tou will invite us to go out for a few drinks, and you don't have to worry about him. Liu Tou is very strict with her. Liu Tou doesn't have much money to help her, so he can't spend much money to ask us!" The young man with Jiangnan accent just now laughed again, and exposed Liu Tou's shortcomings, which made everyone laugh. Liu Tou cursed angrily and picked up a piece of wood to beat him, but unfortunately, this young man with Jiangnan ran away with a smile.
Yang Jiu also laughed. When he first came, Liu Tou had already introduced him. The guy with a Jiangnan accent was named Hu Han. He was from Jizhou, Jiangnan. To be precise, he was a fugitive living in Jizhou. He moved to Taiwan half a year ago and had been working in the factory for three or four months. In addition, the bearded man with Liu Tou was called Daqiang, and the tall and thin man with Hu Han was named Luo, but everyone called him Zhugan. As for the guy who carried things with Yang Jiu, he was a dull man in his twenties, named Wang San, who had a tiger back and a bear waist. He entered the factory two days earlier than Yang Jiu. He usually didn't like to talk, but he was very strong. When he was carrying wood with Li Zhi, he was mostly trying to use force alone.
Yang Jiu is the pseudonym of Li Zhi. A few days ago, Li Yan gave him two suggestions. The first suggestion was to let him walk around in Taiwan and observe with his own eyes. He would rely on himself to learn everything he could learn. The second suggestion was to let Li Yan help him arrange it, so that he could completely abandon his identity as the prince, integrate into Taiwan's life as an ordinary person, taste the ups and downs of the people at the bottom, and increase his social experience.
For Li Zhi, the first suggestion was to let him observe as an outsider. Just like when he went around casually in the Tang Dynasty and Dengzhou, Li Zhi was already a little bored with this. However, the second suggestion was completely different, especially to let him temporarily abandon the identity of the prince and become an ordinary person. This was undoubtedly very attractive to Li Zhi, who had been in the deep palace since childhood and had no chance to go out. Moreover, only in Taiwan did Li Zhi have such an opportunity. If he was in the Tang Dynasty, there would be countless pairs of eyes staring at him, even with the support of Li Shimin, he would not dare to do so.
Without surprise, Li Zhi naturally chose the second one. As a result, Li Yan laughed at the time and asked Li Zhi to pseudonym Yang Jiu. Caier helped him take this. She followed her Yang surname. Li Zhi wanted to use his mother's surname, but unfortunately the surname Changsun was too rare, so she simply followed Caier's surname.
Then after a few days of preparation, Li Zhi was arranged by Li Yan to this shipyard, and started from the bottom floor, transporting wood in this warehouse. Each team had a fixed amount every day, completing early and getting off work early. If the task was tight, overtime would need to work, and sometimes even not rest all night. Of course, overtime would be required for overtime. However, Li Zhi hoped that he would never work overtime, because he had just been tired and sore all over, and he wanted to lie on the ground to rest immediately.
