Chapter 1143: Seasickness
“Where’s Miss Bai?” Master Wu asked when he saw Gu Boyang standing outside Bai Zhi’s cabin.
Gu Boyang said: “She just vomited again. She’s very weak and just fell asleep. Is there something wrong with my lord?”
Master Wu looked disappointed, shook his head, and said, “It’s nothing, I just suddenly felt uncomfortable. I originally wanted to ask her to diagnose and treat me. Since she is not well, it’s fine. It’s not a big problem.”
Gu Boyang snorted and stood up straight without moving.Master Wu’s thoughts of going in and taking a look disappeared, he started a conversation with Gu Boyang, and asked with a smile, “I saw you playing with a black thing that day. It looks very special. Is that also something from the United Kingdom?”
Gu Boyang’s hand touched his waist, and the pistol was pinned to the waist of his trousers.
This was what Master Wu talking about.
He nodded: “Yes, this is something from there, and not in the Central Plains.”
Master Wu asked, “Can you show it to me?”
Gu Boyang immediately took out the pistol and handed it to Master Wu: “Master, please take a look.”
Master Wu took it and thought it was a very light guy, but he didn’t think so. When he got it, it was quite heavy. Although the shape was strange, it was exquisite in workmanship. It was a very special kind of thing. Why didn’t he see it when he was there?If this thing will be presented to the emperor, the emperor will like it.
“What is this thing for?” Master Wu asked.
Gu Boyang said with a smile: “It’s useless, it’s just a thing to play with in your hand.” A gun without bullets was a useless thing, isn’t it?
Master Wu was playing with the pistol, and the more he played, the more interesting it became, so he said to Gu Boyang, “Brother Gu, why don’t you sell this to me.”
Sell it to him? Gu Boyang raised an eyebrow, thinking of that year, when he first came to this world, he had nowhere to go. He even had trouble eating, and almost starved to death on the street. It was the owner of Jubaozhai who rescued him and gave him a hand. He had enough to live on for a few months, and to thank the benefactor, he gave him the pistol.
Unexpectedly, after more than ten years, the pistol was returned to his hands.
This time, helping Master Wu as a translator, he got some benefits, but he knew that if he wanted to survive here, these benefits were far from enough.
He needs more.
“Okay, since Master Wu wants it, then ask Master Wu to make a price.”
Master Wu didn’t expect him to be easy to talk to, he thought he would be reluctant.
“Five hundred taels, what do you think?”
Gu Boyang raised his eyebrows: “Gold?”
Master Wu secretly took a deep breath. Five hundred taels of silver was already a high price, but he wanted gold? Is this thing worth so much money?
Five hundred taels of gold was not a small amount for him.
Master Wu thought about it for a while, thinking that if he catches up with the grand ceremony after returning to the capital, can this thing be given to the emperor as a congratulatory gift?
If he can make the emperor happy, the five hundred taels of gold will be worth it.
Thinking of this, Master Wu gritted his teeth and said to Gu Boyang, “Okay, it’s a deal.”
As a result, Gu Boyang got a 500 taels instant golden ticket, and Master Wu got a pistol without bullets.
Who doesn’t knows who took advantage of whom?
Bai Zhi has not eaten for three days and even vomited up the water she drank every day, she felt nauseated when she saw the food. She wanted to die.
Gu Boyang came in with the freshly boiled porridge, “Eat a little bit, we will arrive tomorrow at the latest, just bear with it.”
Bai Zhi propped up and sat up and pushed Xiao Qing next to her: “You should eat it too. Swallow it no matter how sick you are, so that we can get off this ship alive.”
