Rebirth of a fishing village: starting from Hua Axiang in Jiehu Village

The sea breeze is getting cooler.

Ma Baozhu brought out a large pot and placed it directly on the ground on the platform. There was no need for a table. He took out clean bowls and filled a bowl for himself if he wanted to eat.

“Yummy!”

"There is nothing more comfortable than a bowl of hot porridge at this time, and it is made from such fresh squid!"

Zhao Shi filled a bowl of porridge and nodded while drinking.

The wind at night is cooler at night, and the air is moist from sea water.

Don't look at it. It's hot during the day, but it's cooler at this time, even a little cold.

The piping hot porridge is better than anything else. It not only fills the stomach, but also warms up the whole body, which is very comfortable.

Shi Guangming drank most of the bowl of porridge, picked up a small squid, put it in his mouth and took a bite. It was extremely crispy and fresh.

Shi Guangming didn't speak. He drank two large bowls in one breath and then stopped.

“So delicious!”

Shi Guangming touched his belly. It was really delicious, no joke.

"It's really great here. There are lights now at night, and a lot of small fish gather here. There are really a lot of these small squids. If there are some other fish that you want to eat, put a fishing net Or just use a fishing net to catch it.”

"I want to eat this night when I'm waiting for the early morning, so I'll get some small fish, shrimp or squid or something like that!"

While drinking porridge, Ding Ailian pointed to the netting line of the fish steak at her feet. Group after group of small fish gathered, but none of them swam into the cage. There were sea bass one after another, weighing more than ten or twenty kilograms. They were all floating on the water, staring at the school of small fish.

Although these small fish are not too big, they only have one or two fingers, but they are very delicious when you pick them up and fry them.

In the past few days, I, Ma Baozhu, and the other four people who came here to work on the fish steaks all caught these small fish or squids to eat.

"Ma Baozhu! Ding Ailian!"

"Xiaoxiang told you, you can eat the fish here if you want!"

"It doesn't matter if it's sea bass or black bream or grouper or whatever."

"This fish can definitely be sold for money and can be sold for a lot of money, but for people like Ding Xiaoxiang, Zhao Dahai and us, these fish are really just fish and not worth so much money."

Zhao Shi reminded Ding Ailian and Ma Baozhu that the fish here can be eaten whether it is sea bass, black snapper, or grouper, including the most valuable red grouper.

"Second Grandpa."

"Xiaoxiang has told me about this matter, and also told Ailian about this matter."

"If you want to eat sea bass or black sea bream, we will get some."

"There are a lot of people waiting for fish steaks like this in Grouper. It's okay to come here twice a month to eat. I will pay attention to the arrangement."

"But having said that, those of us who eat fish steaks all day long don't really want to eat too much fish, shrimp, and crab every day."

"Vegetables and meat are better, I like to eat them more."

Ma Baozhu nodded. Ding Xiaoxiang had told herself this a long time ago, and she had said it more than once, but whether she or other people in the grammar preferred to eat meat and vegetables.

"right!"

"The size of the fish in the fish steak is really big. You can eat it once or twice. If you eat more, it really won't taste that good."

"These small fish, shrimps, or squids, I think they taste better."

Ding Ailian smiled and filled up another half bowl of porridge. This was really not to be polite or anything else. It was just that people like her ate too much and it was not very good to eat it every day. Meat would be more delicious.

Zhao Shi and Shi Guangming both made friends with Ding Ailian or Ma Baozhu. This is actually a fact. People who grew up by the sea must like to eat fish, shrimp and crabs, but this does not necessarily mean eating big fish, shrimps and crabs. In many cases, children Fish and shrimp are fresher and more delicious.

"The sea water here at our fish raft is very deep. I think you can find a few crab pots and put them here."

"You can catch crabs or other fish every time you go, but anyway, if you have nothing to do, just put some crab pots and pull them up to take a look when you have nothing to do in this place."

"The sea water here is so deep, there must be crabs, at least there must be big Shi Jiugong."

"Ding Dawen's fishing boat is parked and waiting for Zhao Dahai to come back from fishing. He does the same thing. Sometimes he even fishes."

Shi Guangming told Ma Baozhu and Ding Ailian that they could set up wires or fish at this place.

Regardless of the crab pot or the fish you caught, if you want to eat it, you can eat it yourself, or if you want to sell it, the money from the sale belongs to you.

"Grandpa Shi."

"This is what Ding Dawen does on the fishing boat, but it's not good for us to do it on the fish steak, right?"

"It's okay to put some fish, shrimps and crabs in crab pots or something to eat, but it's not good to sell them yourself."

Ma Baozhu hesitated for a moment and shook her head. Ding Dawen did indeed do this, but she felt that fish steaks could not be used in this place. It would be okay to put a crab pot to catch something and cook it, but selling it for money was really not possible.

"It's up to you to make up your mind on this matter. If you think it's okay, then look at it this way. If you think it's not okay, don't do it."

Zhao Shi knew that Ma Baozhu was worried about opening such a hole. The people who worked on the fish steaks were all thinking about placing the crab pots, and few of them worked seriously or it would affect their work. Ding Xiaoxiang had said about the fish steaks. The main thing is that Ma Baozhu is in charge. If Ma Baozhu thinks it's okay, then do it. If Ma Baozhu thinks it's not okay, then don't look at it. This is not a big deal.

Ma Baozhu nodded and just made up his own mind.

Zhao Shi and Shi Guangming finished two bowls of porridge and sat for a while to see that it was almost time. They felt a little sleepy and went back to the room to sleep.

"Elaine."

"Why don't you go take a nap?"

"I can just keep an eye on the fish steak here, there are others too!"

"Don't we have to go see the fishing boats with Shi Zhongwei while we wait for dawn? I'm too tired if I don't sleep a little longer."

Ma Baozhu urged Ding Ailian to go to bed quickly.

Ding Ailian shook her head.

"What's going on with you? Are you still worried about Shi Zhong borrowing so much money to buy a fishing boat?"

When Ma Baozhu saw Ding Ailian like this, she knew that she was still thinking about borrowing money.

"How can we not worry! This is a huge sum of money. When will it be repaid?"

Ding Ailian knew that Shi Zhongwei should indeed borrow this amount of money, but it was a lot more than before, and she was really worried about when she would be able to pay it back.

Ma Baozhu is the target of her eldest brother Ding Dawen, and she is waiting to marry into the family. That is his sister-in-law. There is nothing to hide what she thinks in her heart.

"Xiaoxiang has told you the truth here more than once. You know what it's about."

"It's not because you really can speak to the Queen of Jiale Shi Zhong one day and live a better life. How can Xiaoxiang have the need to do such a thing?"

"Xiaoxiang didn't ask Shi Zhong to pay off the money for a year and a half or something."

"Don't think about it!"

"I'm not marrying Shi Zhongwei yet! There's no need to worry about such things."

Ma Baozhu smiled.

Ding Ailian is really worried too much.

"Why!"

"That's right, but why don't you worry about it? This money is really too much!"

Ding Ailian breathed a sigh of relief. Baozhu or Ding Xiaoxiang had told themselves the truth countless times. They knew very well that Shi Zhongwei would definitely be able to make money by buying such a fishing boat, but he still couldn't help but worry.

"Forget it, forget it!"

"No matter how you talk about this matter, it is of no use. If you want to worry about it, then you can only worry about it. Only when Shi Zhong pays back the money you borrowed will you feel relieved!"

"The past few years have definitely been a bit harder, but if you think about it, after you have worked hard these past few years, the fishing boat will be your own, and you can make a lot of money every time you go out to sea. You can’t find such a good deal even with a lantern.”

Ma Baozhu knew very well that in the next two or three years, Shi Zhongwei and even Ding Ailian would have a hard time. Especially Shi Zhongwei must have been very hard. Most of the money he earned from booking a fishing spot every time he went out to sea was even an absolute amount. Most of it has to be paid back, but after a few years, such a big fishing boat is yours, and the money you make next is yours.

"The key to this matter is that this Haitiao boat was not bought by Shi Jiehua, not by Shi Guangming, but by Shi Zhong for himself. All the money he made was for Shi Zhong, waiting for you to marry him. Okay, this is for you two young couple."

"You don't need me or Xiaoxiang to explain this to you again and again?"

"You can figure this out yourself."

"If you want to get such benefits, you must take certain risks. With Ding Xiaoxiang's support, you don't have to worry about this anymore?"

Ma Baozhu patted Ding Ailian on the shoulder. These reasons were not complicated. This was the fundamental reason why Ding Xiaoxiang was willing to borrow money from Shi Zhongwei to buy a big fishing boat.

"I have to tell you."

"If Shi Zhongwei doesn't dare to do this, Xiaoxiang or Zhao Dahai might not be happy for you to marry Shi Zhongwei. The other one is that if Shi Zhongwei just borrows part of the money, he won't say no. Zhun Xiaoxiang and Zhao Dahai simply don’t want to borrow money.”

Ma Baozhu is a little older than Ding Ailian, has experienced more things, has richer experience, and can see this matter more clearly.

"Xiaoxiang is your cousin."

"Zhao Dahai is your cousin-in-law."

"Don't look at Zhao Dahai and Ding Xiaoxiang. We are now cooperating with Shi Guangming and his family, and we can make a lot of money through this cooperation. But no matter what, the most important thing is to choose a good family for you."

"If Shi Zhong doesn't dare to do such a thing even if he has such an opportunity, then he really has no future at all. There is no need to marry a man like this."

"It's not like you don't know the weight of what Zhao Dahai and Ding Xiaoxiang say in front of your parents. As long as they don't agree, they must weigh it carefully, or even the matter will be ruined."

Ma Baozhu told Ding Ailian about this in a low voice.

"ah?"

"Is this really what it's like?"

"If Shi Zhongwei really doesn't dare to lend money, is it possible that Sister Xiaoxiang will not agree with what Shi Zhongwei and I are doing?"

Ding Ailian asked, she really hadn't thought about this.

"This is my guess!"

"But it's not far off! If you don't believe it, ask Xiaoxiang tomorrow or some other time if he really thinks so."

Ma Baozhu didn't know if Ding Xiaoxiang really thought so, but he felt that it was not too far off, at least Ding Xiaoxiang would have such plans.

"Don't think so much about it."

"Whether it's this matter or something else, if you can't make up your mind or can't figure it out, just ask Xiaoxiang. As long as she agrees with you to do it, you can do it. If she doesn't agree, don't think about any reasons and just don't do it."

Ma Baozhu knows Ding Xiaoxiang's ability.

"That's right!"

"Sister Baozhu."

"Don't you and my brother have any other plans? If you have any ideas, tell my sister Xiaoxiang, there will be no problem."

Ding Ailian looked at Ma Baozhu. Since she started working on the fish raft, the matter with her elder brother Ding Dawen was set in stone. She was just waiting for the two families to meet and discuss the matter.

"No idea."

"Your brother and I are both people with relatively straightforward personalities and don't have any great abilities."

"This is different from your situation with Shi Zhongwei."

"Your brother and I have discussed that there is no need to do anything else. He honestly drives the fishing boat for Xiaoxiang Zhao Dahai, and I stay here at the fish raft. The work is not too tiring, it is close to home, and the money is not bad."

"You can't find such a job even if you look for a lantern."

"Your family is in business. If Dawen could do such a job, your father would have taken him to do business long ago. Isn't it because he can't do business that he goes out to work?"

"You can't even work."

"Thick personality Like a stone. "

"In recent years, no job has lasted long and everyone has been bullied by others."

"Now, driving a fishing boat is the most suitable job for Dawen."

"It's really not tiring to do this little bit of work every day. The time spent at sea is relatively long, but it's not far away, and you can come back every few days. This is really good enough."

Ma Baozhu smiled. What Ding Ailian meant was that if she and Ding Dawen had any ideas and wanted to do business or other things, they could talk to Ding Xiaoxiang, including borrowing money, but she and Ding Dawen really didn't have too many ideas. Their personalities were not suitable for doing business or other things.
