Chapter 16 He even dared to bomb the Yellow River!
Zhang Guohao stood there, not in a hurry to leave, watching the five idiots thrashing about in the seawater. Before long, they all fainted from the pain.
Zhang Guohao kindly flipped them over so that the fallen men were face down, preventing their wounds from being exposed and frightening passersby.
Zhang Guohao left in a hurry. The girl was stunned for a moment, but instead of going to Zhang Guohao's house, she turned around and went to a crowded place.
People won't learn to turn back until they've suffered a major setback.
This girl named Gang Sheng thought she had escaped her misery, but will anyone really treat her like a human being after leaving Zhang Guohao? That's a big question mark.
Zhang Guohao didn't care where the girl went. His most important task now was to eat his fill, work on the ship, earn money, and only then could he become a superior person in Hong Kong.
Upon seeing Zhang Guohao arrive, Boss Huo nodded without saying anything, busy reconciling the accounts.
Zhang Guohao used to help with loading and unloading goods. He doesn't have a fixed position now, nor is he required to come or leave at any time. Everyone knows that Zhang Guohao's main role is as a bodyguard, so he might as well do a little bit of everything.
Even Boss Huo personally loads and unloads the goods; he's already taken so much of a cut, he can't act like a big shot.
Anyway, Boss Huo has seen it all and won't let himself suffer a loss.
All the windows on the ships have been replaced with new ones, and the gun holes and peeling paint have all been re-welded and repainted.
Regardless of what's inside, from the outside, Boss Huo's ship still looks sturdy!
After all the supplies were loaded onto the ship, Boss Huo ordered the ship to set sail. Perhaps because they had been badly hurt by those pirates a few days ago, the sea was calm and they met Manager Zhao without any problems.
Then everyone happily started eating their late-night snack.
"Boss Huo, could you talk to Manager Zhao next time and ask me to have some rice and steamed buns? A bowl of noodles, even with the soup, is just enough to fill me up."
Zhang Guohao squatted down next to Boss Huo and said to him, "Life is peaceful now, so the quality of life is actually higher."
As a native of northern China, and with the added benefit of time travel, Zhang Guohao can eat as much as ten locals!
"Okay, I'll talk to Manager Zhao about it in a bit."
Boss Huo turned around, glanced at Zhang Guohao, and replied with a smile, "Being able to chat about food peacefully is better than fighting to the death!"
While they were having a late-night snack, Manager Zhao came over, looked at Boss Huo and Zhang Guohao, hesitated for a moment, and gave Boss Huo a look.
Clearly, Manager Zhao had something he wanted to say to Boss Huo alone.
"Manager Zhao, Ah Hao is one of us. You can tell me anything."
Boss Huo glanced at Zhang Guohao, then nodded to Manager Zhao and said.
In just three days, Zhang Guohao had already been taken as a confidant by Boss Huo, thanks to Zhang Guohao's handsome face and strong abilities.
His handsome face is endearing, and his formidable abilities are admirable.
To put it bluntly, given Zhang Guohao's formidable fighting prowess, it wouldn't be surprising if he sneaked into Boss Huo's bedside in the middle of the night and casually took Boss Huo's head and all his savings.
Such people can no longer be won over by simply offering money; you have to rely on personal relationships and trust to gamble on the other party's gratitude.
Seeing this, Manager Zhao hesitated for a moment, then said in a low voice:
"We've received some intelligence that the navy over there has been deployed and has been roaming around our area recently. You guys need to be careful these days."
Manager Zhao's tone conveyed anger, shame, reluctance, and a touch of embarrassment.
It's all tears when I think about it. The current situation here can be summed up in one sentence: we have the sea, but no defense.
From the beginning of the Qing Dynasty, the development of the navy was not very satisfactory.
The Republic of China wasn't much stronger either.
They've even separated now, and all the warships here combined aren't even as big as a single large American aircraft carrier.
While they could drive the island troops back into the sea on land, they were truly helpless once they were at sea.
Even now, during naval training here, they still use bamboo poles and washbasins as equipment.
The island raiders have been harassing the southeast coast quite a bit lately. When they come to cause trouble, Manager Zhao and his team really don't have any good solutions.
All I can do is remind Boss Huo to be careful when transporting the goods.
Mentioning this makes Manager Zhao furious. When will he be able to get rid of that place?
"What? They're not going to bombard me, are they?"
Upon hearing this news, Boss Huo was stunned and asked in disbelief.
"Boss Huo, you don't know Jiang. He even dares to bomb the Yellow River. We're just a tiny speck of dust. How could he possibly take us seriously? He might even be secretly cursing us for not knowing what's good for us."
Zhang Guohao, standing nearby, made a sarcastic remark.
The Yellow River, our Mother River, though it spends most of its time criticizing its filial sons and grandsons, its descendants have never forgotten to tame it.
Even for ancient dynasties, the management of the Yellow River was of paramount importance!
As a result, Chiang Kai-shek blew up the Yellow River. Does he even deserve to be called a person? Bah!
Upon hearing Zhang Guohao's words, Manager Zhao turned his gaze over and nodded approvingly. Could this kid be one of their own?
Upon hearing this, Boss Huo recalled a few years ago when he saw that incomprehensible news in the newspaper. At that time, the young Boss Huo was almost dumbfounded.
However, the Yellow River was too far away, and Boss Huo was busy finding a way to make a living, so he didn't take it seriously. Now the blame is about to fall on him. Boss Huo felt cold sweat running from the top of his head to his heels whenever he thought about it!
If they get bombarded, how many shells can their ships withstand?
However, Boss Huo quickly calmed down. "When a person dies, the bird flies to the sky; if they don't die, they live for ten thousand years." In some places, people just value business above all else.
At worst, I'll just avoid it if I happen to run into it. And with Zhang Guohao's all-seeing eye, if he keeps a close eye on things at night, nothing should happen.
Even if the other ship is faster, and you can't escape even if you spot it, what if?
As long as I'm careful enough and run fast enough, I can get from under the noses of the foreigners to under the coastal defense guns of my home. Do they still think they can trade their lives for mine? Nor would they dare to openly attack me in front of the foreigners!
This job is easy to do!
"Manager Zhao, I'll say it again: as long as I'm alive, this supply line will not be broken!"
Boss Huo solemnly said that he is never ambiguous when it comes to serious matters, and if he says he can do it, he can do it!
"Be careful in everything you do. I'll treat you to a drink after the war is over!"
Manager Zhao looked at Boss Huo, who had solemnly assured him countless times, and said earnestly, "In this matter, no matter how solemn or serious we are, it is not excessive."
"Let's go home!"
Boss Huo put down his bowl and shouted to his men.
"Manager Zhao, could you please prepare some rice and steamed buns next time? The noodles are tasty, but they're so watery and not filling at all!"
Well, Boss Huo ultimately forgot to mention the late-night snack, so Zhang Guohao could only shamelessly bring it up.
