Chapter 138 Overturned

Li Changle turned around and saw Chen Yongwei smiling at him meaningfully.

"Brother, you are so reluctant to leave me that you followed me after only a few steps?"

"You're laughing at me!" Li Changle punched him. "What are you laughing at?"

Chen Yongwei laughed and glanced at him sideways, "You were fighting with her man, not with her, why are you hiding when you see her?"

"You want to be beaten, right?" Li Changle smiled and kicked him. "Those people in the village said you were an honest leader, but you are not honest at all."

"That's what they said, I didn't say it!" Chen Yongwei said, nudging him, "This woman is not a decent person. I saw her walking in step with Wang Mazi's brother-in-law and boarding the Wang family's small wooden boat. Tsk tsk, these people really know how to have fun, and they're not afraid of breaking taboos!"

"You monkey, hurry up and find a wife so you don't have to worry about these things all day long."

"It's not my wife's business!" Chen Yongwei spat, "I'm telling you, seeing this kind of thing will bring bad luck."

"Ever since I saw those two bitches get on the boat, I stepped into a mud pit while scooping the sea, and lost my sand shovel. I didn't even catch a single fish, and I went home with an empty bucket for several days in a row."

"Sometimes this kind of thing is really weird. You just stepped into a mud pit and you're lucky if you haven't caught any fish for a few days."

"My grandma said the same thing. She even went to the temple to ask for holy water and asked me to sprinkle it. Only then did I get rid of the bad luck."

He knew about the Wang family's bad deeds in his previous life, and he also knew that Wang Mazi's wife married him just for his money.

After getting married and living a good life, she started to become restless again. She disliked Wang Mazi's ugliness and fishy smell, and started to hook up with Wang Mazi's brother-in-law.

Bah! She still wanted to seduce him. Seeing her flirting, I vomited the food I hadn't eaten the night before.

After leaving the village, the two took a shortcut along a small road and headed towards Zhang's house.

Seeing that there was no one around, Li Changle told Chen Yongwei about the beads, and he was so happy that he almost stepped into the rice field.

"One is over a hundred, and the total is over two hundred? Brother, did I hear you right?"

"You heard it right." Li Changle told Awei about his plan again.

"Okay, call the eldest brother and the second brother to join us, and we can make money together."

"Well! When we get the beads out, if we're lucky we'll get some good stuff and sell it for money. I plan to build a house in Nanshan. What do you think of your plan?"

Chen Yongwei frowned and looked at him, "Why did you think of building a new house in Nanshan? It's so good at the entrance of the village!"

Li Changle repeated what he had said to Zhou Ruonan, "I think Nanshan is good. If you like to build at the entrance of the village, when you build your new house, go to the entrance of the village to approve the foundation."

He hoped that Chen Yongwei and his two brothers would be like him and obtain land in Nanshan to build new houses, so that they could get more new houses and more demolition compensation in the future.

But now no one is optimistic about that place, and everyone wants to stay away from the beach.

Chen Yongwei shook his head, "I won't go. If you say Nanshan is good, then it must be Nanshan. I will go there and be your neighbor."

"Building a new house is a big deal. Go back and discuss it with grandma."

"I said I would definitely tell her, but in the end, she still depends on me."

"That's true. My mother said that she never tortured the parents of her children. Your grandmother is the same to you."

Chen Yongwei nodded. "A-nai had a hard life. She suffered more than anyone else in her life. She lost her mother in childhood, her husband in middle age, and her son in old age. She experienced all three major tragedies in life. She said that God let her reincarnate as a human being so that she could suffer."

"I know how hard it is for her. Remember to respect her and let her enjoy her old age."

"I know."

The two brothers arrived at Shuilu Zhang half an hour later. They walked to the door of Zhang's house, scooped a ladle of herbal tea and drank it before entering the yard.

As soon as Li Changle entered the house, he saw Boss Zhang in the courtyard, putting chains on a tricycle painted in military green. "Boss Zhang, is this my tricycle?"

"It's yours, come and give me a hand!" Zhang Lao Da said as he stood up and motioned for him to help turn the tricycle over. Pointing at the tricycle, he said, "I found a thick iron sheet to make a carriage for you. I guarantee it will be useful to you."

Li Changle patted the carriage board and said, "It's really good. It's good to use. I'll promote it for you."

"Thank you!" Zhang patted the cushion and smiled at him, "Can you ride a tricycle? Do you want to try it?"

"This is easy!" Li Changle got on the tricycle, pedaled twice in the yard, tested the brakes, and nodded with satisfaction, "Not bad, what Boss Zhang does is really amazing."

He felt that Boss Zhang was born to do this job, and the new car modified from an old one was better than the one he bought.

Chen Yongwei was itching to try it, "Brother, come down, I'll try the three-wheeler."

"Okay!" Li Changle got off the tricycle. "I'll give the balance to Boss Zhang. You can try it out and see what kind of bicycle you want to order."

"Hmm!" Chen Yongwei got on the bike, pedaled a few steps, and felt the bike leaning to one side and it seemed like it was going to flip over soon. He hurriedly adjusted his posture, but the more he adjusted, the worse it felt.

"Fuck! The steering wheel of this car seems to be tilted. I can't adjust it no matter how hard I try."

Li Changle understood immediately after hearing this. People who first learned to ride a bicycle always feel that the tricycle is leaning to one side when riding it, and feel that the tricycle is about to fall over. Then they will unconsciously try to find a sense of balance and slightly adjust the handlebars in that direction, but the more they adjust, the more it leans, and finally, it really falls over...

Some people learn to ride a tricycle but then can’t ride a bicycle anymore. This is the case with his teacher Zhou.

"Riding a tricycle is different from riding a bicycle. You don't need to find a sense of balance when pedaling. Relax your hands, don't turn the handlebars, relax your hands, relax..."

"Oh no! It's going to overturn..." Chen Yongwei saw the tricycle slanting towards the courtyard wall, so he quickly stepped on the brakes and jumped off, thus avoiding the tricycle from overturning.

"Damn it, three wheels are not as easy to use as two wheels."

Zhang Laoda laughed. "When I first rode a tricycle, I was almost the same as you. Just do as your brother said. Don't worry about the handlebars. Just ride forward. You will get it right after riding a few times."

"I'll learn slowly later. I'll order the bicycle first." Chen Yongwei said with a red face.

Boss Zhang asked happily, "Do you want to order something better or something normal?"

"Brother, what do you think?"

"Let's order eighty." Li Changle patted Zhang Lao Da, "We are old acquaintances, give me a preferential price!"

Boss Zhang looked at the two of them with a smile, "Well, don't ask me to give you a discount. I'll find you good brand parts. It'll be much more cost-effective than paying you a few dollars less."

Chen Yongwei glanced at Li Changle and nodded, "After installing it, paint it well."

"Don't worry, I promise to use good paint for you." Zhang Lao Da said with a smile, "Make the costume look good, so that it will be convenient for the young man to pick up the girls when he watches the show."

Li Changle took the opportunity to say, "Boss Zhang, there is a suitable girl in Shuilu Zhang, please help me to connect with my brother!"

"Okay, I'll talk to my mother." Zhang Laoda said as he picked up an air pump and a tricycle lock made of a chain and a padlock. "A Le, do you want the padlock and the air pump?"

Li Changle took it with a smile, "You gave it to me for free?"

"Then I'll lose money." Zhang Lao Da laughed, "I'll give you six dollars in total, half of it is sold and half of it is given away."

"You are so stingy. You want me to pay for something worth more than a hundred dollars!"

"I really didn't make much money from you. You can tell by the quality."

"Okay, I believe you!" Li Changle took out another six yuan from his pocket and handed it to him together with the balance.

Boss Zhang took the balance from Li Changle, wrote a receipt for Chen Yongwei, and sent the two of them out.

Li Changle rode his tricycle and took Chen Yongwei to the boat shop. As soon as they reached the intersection, they saw their eldest and second brothers coming out. "Brother, have you been to see the boats?"

Brother Li smiled and nodded, "I've seen it, the modification is very good. Uncle Zhang said you can come and pick it up tomorrow morning."

"Let's go and take a look." Li Changle rode a tricycle into the boat shop, got off the tricycle, and Chen Yongwei also jumped off.

Brother Li walked up to the tricycle and patted its seat. “Wow, it’s new. Did you just buy it?”

"I ordered it from a high-rise building near the bridge. It's an old tricycle that was converted. It cost me one hundred and forty dollars."

"Not bad!" Brother Li touched the cargo box, "It's so big, it can hold a lot of things, and it looks more economical than a bicycle."

Brother Li nodded repeatedly, "Brother, let's order one later."

At this time, Lao Zhang also got off the boat and took the four people to the boat. The boat looked much more pleasing to the eye after being modified and maintained.

The winches and net-lifting machines on both sides have also been installed, and the water tank has been repaired. There is only a rudder, a maneuvering device and a compass in the small control panel, as well as a bed that can only be used by one person to lie sideways.

Chen Yongwei grinned happily, "Brother, we can go out to sea tomorrow."

"Yeah!" Li Changle was also very happy. After being a fisherman for two lifetimes, he finally had his own fishing boat in this life.

Brother Li patted him on the shoulder and said, "Ah Le, you two should work hard in the future!"

"Don't worry, big brother." Li Changle said with a smile, "I still want to earn money to buy a big boat at Uncle Zhang's house!"

"Ah Le, work hard. When you come to buy a big boat, Uncle Zhang promises to give you a preferential price." Old Zhang smiled and picked up the crank, and said to Li Changle: "Ah Le, do you want to try?"

"Okay, let's try it!" Li Changle picked up the crank and inserted it into the starting shaft. He skillfully operated the switches and valves on the diesel engine and turned the crank vigorously.

"Da da da" the diesel engine spewed out a puff of black smoke and the hull vibrated. He adjusted the course and drove forward quickly.

Big Brother Li looked at Li Changle happily and said to Big Brother Li: "Ah Le is good. I was worried that he wouldn't be able to drive the boat well!"

Brother Li smiled and nodded, "He has been smarter than us since he was young, and he learns things faster than us, but he is just too lazy to move."

"Yeah, we never thought of using plastic cans to catch octopuses, we only knew how to use clay pots."

Brother Li felt that the third brother had changed a lot after coming back this time. If he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, he wouldn't have believed that others said it was his younger brother.
