Chapter 123 (1/2)
Boten handed the letter to Xia Fei, but he didn't let him open it immediately. He pulled Xia Fei into the office, carefully closed the curtain, and locked the door, which allowed him to open and watch.
Xia Fei didn't understand why boten was so careful. He opened the envelope curiously and took out a piece of white writing paper.
Letters have long been forgotten by the vast majority of people. Now people prefer to use high-tech means such as e-mail or video calls. Unexpectedly, old porter still keeps such an old habit.
The lettering on the letter paper is neat and elegant. It's hard to imagine that old porter's hands full of calluses could write such elegant fonts. The characters he used were a kind of very ancient meteor, which seemed to be composed of countless interlaced meteors. The font was beautiful and complicated.
”Meteoroid!” One side of the ghost was very surprised and said: ”this type of font is also called aristocratic writing. Only some ancient big families in the alliance can teach family members to learn this kind of writing from childhood. It is absolutely impossible to learn this kind of writing without more than ten years' efforts.”
”Meteoroid is a symbol of identity. Ordinary people don't spend a lot of time learning this beautiful but complicated font. How could old Potter write this kind of writing? I'm afraid he's not just a repairman. ”
After listening to the ghost's explanation, Xia Fei was even more puzzled. Fortunately, he had a translation chip with good quality in his head, but he could read this ancient text. He read it patiently and carefully.
”Boten, you are the most loyal one among all my disciples. It's a great pleasure to have you around as a teacher.
When you read this letter, my teacher has already left. I want to get back some abandoned things. You don't have to try to find me. You can't find me.
This factory is no longer meaningful to exist. If you sell it and how much money you sell, you and your four brothers will share one point as a gift given to you by the teacher. In addition, another 10% will be given to the Sonny family. When I first arrived here, the Sonny family did not help me, as well as the workers. Give them more casual expenses and let them work in other factories 。
Song San and Lina are with me. One of them is disabled and the other is a girl. It is inconvenient for them to stay here. I will arrange them in person.
In addition, I have left something for Xia Fei. It's in my safe. The password is your birthday. If I guess right, Xia Fei will come back here. You can give it to him for me, and show him this letter. After reading it, burn it. ”
Xia Fei put the letter paper on the table and frowned heavily. Old porter didn't say what he wanted to do in the letter. However, judging from his meaning, he would not come back. Otherwise, he would not let boten sell the factory which had invested a lot of effort. You know, this is his lifeblood.
”The master will not come back, will he?” Boten asked nervously. In fact, he understood it in his heart, but boten was not willing to accept such a result, so he asked Xia Fei's idea again.
Xia Fei nodded. ”Yes, uncle Porter seems very determined.”
Boten was disappointed, holding his head in his hands. His expression was very painful. ”Why did master go there? We are not very good here.”
Xia Fei lit a cigarette and comforted him: ”maybe uncle Porter really has something important to do. By the way, what ship did he sail when he left?”
”A Gaia Tristan class frigate, fully armed and equipped with a dual engine system.” Said boten in a deep voice.
Xia Fei was slightly surprised. The dual engine system is a rare combination. Nowadays, the technology of transition engine is highly developed. Installing two engines will not improve the performance of the warship, unless it is to go to far or dangerous places.
To be sure, old porter must have been prepared, and the place he went to must have a very special environment, so he would specially drive a twin engine warship.
”What kind of environment would require a dual engine system?” Xia Fei lowered his head and thought hard.
Boten asked Xia Fei for a lighter to burn old porter's letter. His face showed an indescribable bitterness, and his eyes were dull.
Xia Fei sat aside without saying a word. At this time, Xia Fei couldn't think of any words to comfort him. After all, the feelings between their masters and apprentices were far beyond comparison. Boten would rather divorce than leave old porter, which shows how loyal he is to his master.
Standing up, boten called Xia Fei to the safe in the office and typed in the password, but it didn't open it.
”The master left something for you. You can see for yourself. I'll go out first.”
Boten turned to leave, Xia Fei held him, ”don't go out, let's see together.”
”No way.” Boten shook his head again and again, ”this is what the master left you. He didn't say let me see it.”
This wooden man has a simple and stubborn mind. Xia Fei suddenly feels that he is similar to ghost shadow in respect of respecting teachers and valuing the way. They are both extremely serious and serious. The difference is that ghost shadow only takes this matter seriously, and he is very careless at other times.
Xia Fei smile, ”Uncle Porter left this thing to me, so who is this thing after?””It's yours, of course.”
”Since it's mine, may I invite you to see it?”
