Chapter 1: First time in a butcher shop, apprentice to slaughter pigs! [Please collect]

starry night

The frost is cold and the dew is heavy, and the magpies are flying south

Beside the old and thick city wall, a butcher shop was brightly lit with candles.

Seven or eight rough guys were busy in full swing.

One after another, the fat pigs were held down and bled, and the piercing howls continued to pierce the night sky. The rich stench filled the air, making people dizzy.

A fat, muscular middle-aged man in a short coat, holding a purple clay pot, sat with his legs crossed and drank tea, looking at the thin young man in front of him casually.

He is thin and his clothes are full of patches!

Due to long-term malnutrition, his face was haggard and pale.

The fingers are also covered with calluses, obviously they have suffered a lot.

However, the young man's eyes were very clear and deep, with a hint of calmness and competence, which made people feel good about him.

The middle-aged man put down the teapot and asked casually: "Are you the grandson of Old Wei Tou? What is your name?"

"Report to the eldest lord, junior Wei Hong." The young man's eyes were clear and he replied in a neither humble nor arrogant manner: "I am 16 years old this year and I know a few words. My grandfather is the old Wei who works in Anlefang. He often mentions your reputation. , so I want this junior to have a meal with you.”

"The reputation of fart!" The middle-aged man spat out a mouthful of tea foam, and his expression softened a bit: "You don't have to scream like a big man. I am now the head stall of this butcher shop. If you are not afraid of hardship, Having a meal from you is a way of repaying the kindness of my grandfather."

"Thank you, stall owner." Wei Hong smiled.

The middle-aged man continued: "Our butcher shop doesn't have any rules. It's just a lot of dirty and tiring work. From now on, we will start work at 3:00 in the morning and finish at 3:00 in the afternoon. We will take care of breakfast and lunch."

"You have to be responsible for cleaning the inside and outside of the yard, the pig pens and latrines, helping when killing pigs, boiling water and adding firewood, cleaning the pig drains. When you have time, you have to go to various restaurants to deliver goods, and help in the kitchen."

"In addition, there is no salary during the apprenticeship, and rewards are only given during holidays. Do you remember this?"

Wei Hong silently nodded in agreement.

He doesn't care too much about wages.

Ever since he traveled to this world of immortality, he has been dependent on his grandfather, growing up in the slums of the divine capital of the Great Zhou Dynasty, and at the same time awakened to a mysterious system.

This system lives by sucking the life out of all things.

As long as Wei Hong kills people and animals with his own hands, he can absorb a ray of vitality from the other party, thus continuously increasing his own vitality and lifespan without any side effects or upper limit.

If he were an ordinary person, he would probably be tempted to kill people everywhere to become stronger.

But Wei Hong knew that this was a dangerous world. There were immortal cultivators who went to heaven and earth, warriors who shattered mountains and seas with their fists, and there was no shortage of weird evil spirits that could harm people's lives.

Those who kill will always be killed!

How can you walk along the river without getting your shoes wet?

Therefore, Wei Hong decisively abandoned this way of killing people to become stronger, and then asked his grandfather to find a job as a butcher's apprentice in a butcher shop. It didn't matter how much the salary was, as long as he could kill pigs and become stronger as soon as possible.

"Big stall, when can I start killing pigs?" Wei Hong asked curiously, looking at the pork with a hint of eagerness.

These are his experience packages!

"You haven't learned to walk yet, and you want to run away?" Zhu Sihai, a middle-aged man, sneered angrily: "Pig killing is a technical job. Only after passing the three-year apprenticeship assessment can you have the opportunity to become a swordsman. Take your time. Learn it.”

"Three years?"

"It doesn't necessarily have to take so long." Zhu Sihai patted him on the shoulder and comforted him: "Our butcher shop is affiliated with the Hutou Gang, and apprentices also have the opportunity to practice basic pile skills. If you study hard and practice hard, your arm strength will greatly increase. There’s nothing wrong with being a swordsman, there’s even a chance to join the Hutou Gang.”

Wei Hong's eyes lit up again when he heard this!

It is not easy to find immortals and ask questions these days. After all, the immortal cultivating sect is mysterious and difficult to find. Although the imperial family of the Great Zhou Dynasty has immortal cultivators as worshipers, not everyone can access it.

Therefore, practicing martial arts is the way out for ordinary people.

If an average person wants to go to a martial arts gym to practice martial arts, he or she has to pay a minimum monthly tuition fee of 12 to 80 taels.

Now you can learn martial arts by joining a butcher shop, which is naturally a nice surprise.

"Do it well." Zhu Sihai continued to draw the pie: "Although our pig butchers are dirty and tired, at least there is no shortage of meat to eat. I don't know how many people are envious of you. I will wait for you to make your body stronger and practice martial arts. It’s also a good way out.”

"Thank you, stall owner." Wei Hong expressed his gratitude.

He knew that Zhu Sihai was not lying.

The butcher shop apprentice is a hot job, and it is definitely not something anyone can do if they want to.

If grandpa hadn't had some relationship with the other party, there would be no need for him to become an apprentice.

"Yes!" Zhu Sihai nodded with satisfaction, then raised his hand to call a simple and honest young man with bulging muscles, as strong as a brown bear, wearing a linen jacket, and warned: "Li Daniu, this is the new apprentice Wei "Hong, take him with you."

"good!"

The young man nodded angrily.

He turned around, found a broom and handed it to Wei Hong, and said: "Brother Wei, please follow me to clean up the blood on the floor first. We will do all the chores in the store. Everyone can do a few things. If there is nothing, we will just go around." Cleaning, we have to help at any time if someone calls for it, do you understand?"

"Okay, thank you Brother Li." Wei Hong thanked him.

"Why are you so polite?" Li Daniu scratched his head and reminded in a low voice: "You can just call me Daniu. I only came two and a half years before you. Now we are the only two apprentices in the butcher shop. Whatever I do later, you will follow me. Just fine.”

After a while, the two began to get busy.

Cleaning the pigsty, washing blood, scraping pig hair, cleaning pig intestines, boiling water and watching the fire, all kinds of trivial things are constantly happening, and they are so busy that they don't even have time to touch the ground.

Wei Hong and Li Daniu are now at the bottom of the butcher shop.

Working hard and doing dirty and tiring work without getting paid, the taste of it is naturally indescribable to outsiders!

Moreover, due to years of hunger, Wei Hong's body is thin and weak. After a lot of work, he was sweating and his hands and feet were weak, and his face was pale.

"Brother Wei, take it easy." Li Daniu reminded in a low voice: "Look at your skinny appearance, there is no need to work too hard, otherwise you will be exhausted."

Wei Hong laughed dumbly, this man is quite interesting.

On the surface, he looks honest, but he knows how to be sneaky.

"It's okay, I can hold on."

Wei Hong gritted his teeth and continued to get water from the well in the yard to sweep.

Whether in his previous life or this life, he is a low-level person who has suffered a lot.

Now that he has a chance to make a name for himself, how could he hold back?

Thinking of his leaky home in the slums, and his grandfather who was nearly 60 years old and had raised him with great difficulty, Wei Hong felt endless strength in his heart, and he didn't care even though his hands were bleeding from the rope.

"I want to become stronger!"

"I want to have enough food!"

"I want my grandfather to live a good life!"

The boy's face gradually became firm.

There was no sign of fatigue in his clear eyes, only hopeful enthusiasm!
