It feels so good to have a woman taking care of me, at least it won't be like before. When I wake up, I feel like I'm stuck in the sky, and there's not even a place to unload the goods.

After getting up in the morning to practice, Li Xiao began to have lunch comfortably. After vomiting all night yesterday, his stomach was already empty. With a slightly rosy face, Tokugawa Chiki knelt down in front of Li Xiao and gave him his rice bowl.

Add rice.

A British official, a Japanese wife, a French lover, a German repairman, and an Italian gardener. Such a life is heaven on earth.

I’ve never tasted anything else, but Japanese wives are pretty good. But when I think of the later island country action movies, it seems like repairmen, gardeners, and food delivery guys all have to be careful. It seems that security work in the backyard needs to be improved.

schedule.

The dishes are very simple, one plate of meat, one plate of fish, and two vegetables. The taste is very light, and it can be seen that it is the craftsmanship of Tokugawa Senhime. Li Xiao doesn't like Japanese food very much, but now his stomach is empty, so he can do this

.

I devoured a bowl of rice to fill my stomach. I was thinking about whether I should find a cook and train Tokugawa Chihime.

Walking into the courtyard, there were machine guns mounted on the roof. There were soldiers patrolling the tall courtyard walls. Jiang Chaozong stood on the roof like an owl, turning his head from time to time and looking around vigilantly.

This guard company commander was still qualified. Looking at his red eyes, you could tell that he hadn't slept all night. When he saw Li Xiao in the yard, this guy slid down from the roof with his sliding pole.

"Go to sleep for a while. How many nails can you make out of your iron body alone?" Li Xiao patted Jiang Chaozong on the shoulder, looking disgusting as if a leader cared about his subordinates.

"Sleep! The deputy company commander has to stay on duty for the rest of the night. I only took up the post this morning. The guard posts are also rotated every half an hour in accordance with your instructions to ensure that all soldiers can sleep."

"Yeah!" Li Xiao nodded. The army is like this. It requires a whole set of mechanisms to operate. Just relying on the efforts of one or two people will be exhausting.

"How is Huzi doing?"

"After Mr. Hu got up in the morning, his head hurt terribly. He probably fell asleep again now!"

"Oh! Then let's go out for a walk." It was the first time in his two lives that Li Xiao came to Macau. He was very curious about what this place, which is famous for its gambling, is like now.

The weather today is very good, the wind is windy but not too strong. It feels slightly cool on the body and feels very comfortable. This kind of weather is not common in Macau in July.

As soon as he went out, a large group of people followed him. The people on the street ran around in fear, and the Zheng family's guards also came out. They drove the pedestrians away like wolves and tigers, as if they were afraid that others would not know that they were local snakes. Damn it

What a fart!

Li Xiao remembered a famous story about a leader who went to a supermarket to inspect. When he saw a meat seller, he immediately made a sign of concern and asked: "How much meat do you sell in a day?"

The butcher's answer: "When it's good, it weighs more than 200 kilograms, and when it's bad, it weighs more than a hundred kilograms."

The leader asked again: "How much meat did you sell today?"

The meat seller's reply: "You came today, but the supermarket was closed and no one was allowed in. Not a pound of meat was sold!"

The leader was a little embarrassed: "Then I'll make an appointment for you today. Help me cut two pounds of pork belly back."

"When you come today, the knife has been confiscated and you can't cut it."

Li Xiao felt like he was the leader, surrounded by minions behind him. He was not much different from Nan Batian in the old movie image!

"So many people are following, how can you watch." Li Xiao frowned, and Jiang Chaozong ordered to go out. The people who followed him disappeared immediately, and the guards of the Zheng family also followed from a distance. Behind Li Xiao, only Jiang Chaozong led him

Four soldiers armed with short-barreled muskets followed the escort!

Macau is actually quite interesting these days. After all, there are not many buildings that combine Chinese and Western styles. But in Macau, there are such buildings everywhere.

A bluestone road is considered a street, with drainage ditches on both sides. They are all made of stone, with obvious European characteristics. Europeans like to use stones no matter what they do. China also has many ancient names, but buildings are all

It's made of wood, and it's a quick success. But even if it escapes the flames of war, it can't escape the fierce termites.

Even in the Ming Dynasty, not many ancient buildings from the Sui and Tang Dynasties have been preserved. The buildings from the Han Dynasty are even rarer. At least Li Xiao has not heard of any buildings from the Han Dynasty. Even if there are so-called buildings, they have been repaired many times by later generations.

Europeans are different. Castles made of huge stones sometimes take one or two generations, or even longer, to build. But once they are built, they go through many vicissitudes of life. In addition to force majeure factors such as earthquakes,

Very difficult to destroy.

Therefore, later generations of Chinese people lamented that other European castles have a long history, but it is difficult for us to find the buildings of our true ancestors.

One thing that surprised Li Xiao was that no matter rich or poor, everyone here lived in brick houses, and thatched huts were rare. Unlike in the north, many houses were thatched huts. Even the capital was no exception.

There are a series of thatched houses not far outside Deshengmen.

I heard that many people were burned to death last year when the water was taken away.

The brick and tile houses here are also different. The tiles on the roof are all glued with cement, which makes them look very strong.

After thinking for a long time, Li Xiao finally figured out that this is Macau Island. Things like typhoons are frequent visitors here and they come here almost every year.

Thatched houses are easy to put up, but they can fall apart very quickly, let alone resisting typhoons. Even strong sea breezes during the rainy season can probably blow the thatched houses away.

Although they are all brick houses, there are still big differences between the rich and the poor. The poor have small doors and small yards, while the rich have tall watchtowers. The yards of each house are built like turrets, and

Many courtyards clearly have Roman columns and arches, which are obviously Western features.

It can be seen that the social security in Macau is very problematic these days. Otherwise, everyone would not need to build their homes to look like blockhouses.

There are various traders on the street, most of which deal in porcelain, tea, silk and other businesses. After all, this is a transit station for bulk trade. Westerners like China the most, and these are the things they like.

It is said that China maintains a huge trade surplus in its annual Sino-foreign trade. A lot of the silver plundered by Spain and Portugal from the Americas fell into the pockets of maritime merchants.

Of course, there were also things imported to the Ming Dynasty from abroad, the most important of which were spices. Passing by the entrances of several merchants, Li Xiao asked about the smell of strong pepper noodles.

The streets are full of people of all colors. Li Xiao estimates that Macau may be the most international place in the Ming Dynasty.

In addition to the large trading houses, there are also many small vendors on both sides of the street. What makes people feel strange is that these small vendors are often people from the Ming Dynasty.

In addition to selling some handicrafts, these people mostly sell all kinds of snacks. Those who sell pastries can just set up a stall, but those who sell snacks can't do that. They need to set up a few tables and chairs, usually

It's the women who work in the kitchen, and the men who work outside.

The meal just now was too light and I didn’t feel very full. Li Xiao chose a Chaos stall and sat down. The dark and thin stall owner greeted him enthusiastically. When he saw the soldiers following Li Xiao, a smile instantly solidified on his face.

.

"Here are six bowls of chaos!" Li Xiao didn't care about his expression and sat directly on an empty table.

The small Chaos stall was doing well, and even found two old black men among the diners. Li Xiao was surprised to find that the two black brothers were using chopsticks to pick up the braised soybeans in the plate and eat them. It was incredible to be able to use chopsticks to such a superb level.

Not to mention being an outlier among foreigners.

The boss looked at Li Xiao in confusion, "Here are six bowls of chaos!" Li Xiao made a six sign to this guy.

As a result, this guy was still confused. He couldn't understand what Li Xiao was saying.

It’s no wonder that many people these days live within a dozen or twenty miles for their whole lives. The Liaodong accent that Li Xiao speaks may be another language to this guy.

"Seven bowls of chaos!" Suddenly a voice came from behind, which solved Li Xiao's problem. Looking back, Ai Husheng was rushing over.

"People here all speak Cantonese, and some even speak Hakka and Chaoshan dialect. If I ever meet someone speaking those languages, I wouldn't be able to understand them."

Li Xiao had heard that there were many dialects in Guangdong, but he couldn't understand a word of it. In his ears, there was no difference between Cantonese, Chaoshan, or Hakka people, and he couldn't understand any of them.

Fortunately, there is this guy Ai Husheng. As long as he is here, Li Xiao doesn't seem to have to worry about translation.

The boss bowed to Li Xiao, then quickly ran to his wife, crowing like a chicken, causing her to fall into chaos.

Although he couldn't understand what he was saying, the Chaos was cooked authentically. When Li Xiao took a bite of the Chaos, it tasted really good. And not only did the Chaos taste good, it was also big. It was like dumplings in the north. No wonder the black brothers

I also went to this little stall to eat.

It is affordable and the price is probably fair. The two parents-in-law who sell Chaos can be seen at a glance that they are honest people. The woman is making Chaos and making Chaos at the same time. The man is working hard to greet the customers. When there are no guests, a small

The girl was beside the woman, her little hands busy washing the dishes.

With a few of his men, Xili ate a big bowl of wontons while snoring. He had sobered up from last night's wine, and Li Xiao felt like he could beat a tiger to death now.

Ai Husheng took out a handful of Daming Tonggeer from his sleeve to check the account. The boss waved his hands and did not dare to ask for it. Li Xiao looked at the Zheng family guards standing in the distance and had a new understanding of the power of the Zheng family here.

.

Grabbing the boss's withered hand, Li Xiao forced all those copper brothers into the boss's withered claws.

The boss was so excited that he didn't know what to say. He bowed and saluted to Li Xiao. He muttered something, but Li Xiao couldn't understand it.

"Let's go shopping." Although there are only two or three streets in Macau now, it does not hinder Li Xiao's interest in shopping at all.

"No...!" Ai Husheng and Li Xiao had just walked out for more than ten meters when they heard a lot of noise behind them.

Li Xiao turned his head strangely and saw a group of people surrounding the Chaos stall. Li Xiao could hear women screaming and men wailing. Occasionally, there was the sound of cups and plates falling to the ground and breaking!

"Go and have a look!"

Jiang Chaozong and his men pushed through the crowd, and Li Xiao walked in. When he saw clearly what was going on inside, his hair stood up in anger.
Chapter completed!
