Chapter 249 Embarrassing Things (Revised)

The two brothers returned to the yard. Li Changle took out a box of batteries from the bucket and placed it on the table. He also took out two batteries from the plastic bucket and placed them here. He moved all the others onto the tricycle and rode towards Nanshan.

As soon as he came out of the alley, he saw a woman carrying a basket walking towards him. Brother Li whispered, "Why is my aunt here?"

"Which aunt?" Li Changle took a look and couldn't remember who this person was.
"Who else? My cousin Wang Huamei." Brother Li turned his head and glanced at him. "She is the mother of the fairy cousin who asked you to be your wife."

A large face with two snot bubbles suddenly appeared in front of Li Changle's eyes. "Fuck, after all this time, it's her house?"

When he was five or six years old, he went back to his mother's home with his mother Li. He was stopped by his fairy cousin who was obsessed with looks and wouldn't let him leave. His new clothes, which he had just worn on the first day of the new year, were covered with snot bubbles.

The little boy who picked up his brothers and sisters' clothes every year got smeared all over the clothes the first time he wore new clothes. As a result, he didn't dare to go to his uncle's house to pay New Year's greetings for several years, and was laughed at by his brothers and sisters for a long time.

"An, is your mother at home?" Wang Huamei also saw the two brothers and greeted them with a smile.

Brother Li smiled politely and said, "They are killing fish by the well. Just go and call and they will answer."

"Okay!" Sister Wang looked at Li Changle, who was much darker than before, and said with a smile, "You guys are busy. I want to talk to your mother about something."

Li Changle turned around and saw her walking away, then asked, "Second brother, did her fairy find Brother Dong Yong?"

"They are from the same village, and they already have three children." Brother Li said, "I heard from my uncle that my aunt's family has approved the land to build a new house, and they may come to see my mother."

In his previous life, Li Changle lived to be sixty and never heard of any family falling down. "Mother and father are getting paid now, and they don't have much to spend money on. It's not bad to make some interest from doing this."

Brother Li curled his lips, "My uncle said that his family wants to do a favor club, a 400 yuan club, which will be paid off in six years without any interest."

"What do you mean?" It was the first time that Li Changle heard of such a favor association, and he was unable to react for a moment.

"There are six families. Each family borrows 400 yuan from her. She has to pay back one family a year. The repayment will be in full in six years."

"Fuck! The interest rate for the club is already very low, and you want to do a favor club. Mother will definitely not agree."

Li Changle thought about the soaring prices. The family that paid back the 400 yuan without any interest would lose a lot of money.

"of course."

When the two brothers arrived at Nanshan and just arrived at the door of Jin's house, they heard Chen Yongwei telling Jin Chan in a vivid voice how the killer whale asked them for help yesterday, which made Jin Chan exclaim in surprise.

Jin Chan saw the two people coming over and pushed Chen Yongwei with a red face, "Brother Ale and the others are here."

Chen Yongwei turned his head and grinned at him, "Brother, uncle Tang and my eldest brother are picking up stones from the stone pit on the mountain. They said they want to pave the road in to avoid getting muddy when it rains."

There is a ruin left over from stone mining halfway up the mountain. There are many small stones in it. They are of no use for building houses, but they are just perfect for paving roads.

“Enough clay?”

"That's enough. I pulled a few cars down."

The three of them walked inside together. Li Changle saw that Zhang Dejin and the others were almost done with the doors and windows. It looked like they would be able to complete one layer of the wall in half a month at most.

Li Changle originally wanted to go to the mountain with them to pick up stones, but Brother Li Er remembered what Captain Zhou said.

"Ah Le, take your household registration booklet to the police station to get a gun license to save you trouble in the future."

"I would have forgotten if you hadn't told me." Li Changle went home, opened the door, took down the hunting rifle from the top of the tent, found a sack to put it in, carried it out, and rode his bicycle towards Jinxingdeng Village.

After passing the master's hall and taking the small path, you will reach Changtang. As soon as you reach the stone bridge, you will see Uncle Li standing there, looking at you with a smile.

"Ale, uncle just wanted to go to your house and ask you for a small favor."

Since Li Changle could remember, she had never seen Uncle Li smile so kindly to her.

As the old saying goes, if someone shows kindness to you without any reason, he is either a traitor or a thief. Let’s see what he says?

He squeezed the brakes, put one foot on the ground, and looked at him nonchalantly, "Are you asking me for help? Are you mistaken?"

Uncle Li stepped forward and held onto the handlebars of his bicycle. "No mistake. I heard that you collected a lot of jellyfish some time ago, right?"

"Yes, it's still pickled in the jar!" Li Changle glanced at him, "You don't want to help me sell it, do you?"

"Yes!" Uncle Li laughed, "Your aunt and I opened a dry goods store together. It opened on the 12th. I wanted to go and see your jellyfish, but your mother said you didn't sell them. I was planning to go to Nanshan to find you."

"You want to buy my jellyfish to help me. Look at you, you are so polite!" Li Changle looked at him with a smile, "Uncle, how much do you want to pay per pound for my jellyfish?"

Uncle Li smiled and said, "I'm not collecting it, I want to borrow it from you!"

He asked around in the town, and found out that poor quality jellyfish cost 70 or 80 cents per pound, while good ones cost more than one dollar, and only if you buy in large quantities can you save a dime or two.

I remembered that the second brother's family had collected a lot of jellyfish a few days ago, so I went to find him. Before I could finish my words, his wife pushed him out by saying that she didn't want to sell them.

Li Changle leaned back and looked at him in surprise, "Borrow jellyfish, how do I borrow it?" "The jellyfish your brother and his friends have collected haven't arrived yet. I want to borrow 500 kilograms of jellyfish heads and 500 kilograms of jellyfish skins to start the business. When he comes back and pickles them, I'll give you 25 kilograms of jellyfish per type of jellyfish with interest."

Uncle Li looked at him, as if he had gotten a great bargain, "In just half a month, you didn't lose a pound of jellyfish, and you got 50 pounds of jellyfish for free. We are family, so I came to you."

"Tsk tsk tsk!" Li Changle looked at him and pointed at his nose, "Uncle, do you think I look like a cadaver?"

I just told Ah Qing this morning that Aunt Li's abacus beads were all over her face, but I didn't expect there was someone who was even better at it. Uncle San was right, we just have to wait and see them perform.

Uncle Li smiled and said, "You are the smartest one in the family. If you think it is too little, I will give you another ten kilograms."

"You know I'm smart, but you still come to me?" Li Changle's face was full of sarcasm. "Jellyfish heads are 1.3 yuan per pound, and jellyfish skins are 1 yuan per pound. If you want, just bring money to buy them. I'm more than welcome to buy them. If you want to lend them to me, forget it!"

Uncle Li's face suddenly darkened. "One dollar and three cents, one dollar and one cent, do you think you are selling dried shrimps and eels?"

"As long as I'm willing, I can sell it for a hundred. What's it to you?" Li Changle said this and rode away on his bicycle.

Uncle Li was so angry that he yelled at him from behind: "You little bastard, do you think you're the only one who has jellyfish?"

Li Changle walked forward against the wind and decided to go back from the police station. He called Brother Li and the others to go back and carry the jellyfish into the house.

Thousands of kilograms cost thousands of dollars, and if you leave it outside, it will break down sooner or later.

As time goes by, there will be more and more restaurants, so we have to take advantage of the jellyfish rush in these months to collect more jellyfish, pickle them and sell them slowly.

I walked and thought, and soon I arrived at the border police station, a dam bigger than the school playground, with a two-story building to the east and a row of bungalows to the west. Standing at the gate was a young soldier with a gun on his back, standing straight.

Li Changle stepped forward with a smile on his face, "Comrade, is Captain Zhou here? I am a villager from Shatou Village, and I am here to apply for a gun license."

He wanted to ask Captain Zhou where those people from yesterday came from and whether the iron boat had an owner.
"Go in and go to the second room on the left." The young soldier said, and stood up straight again.

"Thank you, thank you!" Li Changle went to the second room in the row of bungalows, only to find out that it was not Captain Zhou's office, but the place to issue certificates.

I told the police officer who was processing the certificate what Captain Zhou had said and enthusiastically offered him a cigarette, but he refused it and acted as if he was just doing his job.

Li Changle thought he was going to be blocked, but after showing the gun and household registration booklet to him and paying a one-dollar processing fee, he got the gun license.

Li Changle put his evidence in his pocket and said, "Comrade police, Captain Zhou is not here?"

"Captain Zhou is busy. If you have anything to ask, you can go find the instructor."

"It's nothing serious. I just want to ask, when can I get the photos I took with my boss last time?"

"I'll ask for you when he comes back."

"Thank you, thank you! I'll come again next time."

After Li Changle thanked him gratefully, he went out and rode his bicycle back. From a distance, he saw a sidecar motorcycle coming towards him. He stretched his neck to take a look and was immediately as happy as if he had seen an old lover. He waved joyfully to Captain Zhou who was riding the motorcycle.

Seeing how happy he was, Zhou Chaojun couldn't help but smile, "Have you got the certificate?"

"It's done!" Li Changle smiled and handed over a cigarette. "Have those guys confessed? Is there any hope for my iron boat?"

"You bastard!" Zhou Chaojun poked him a few times, "You are really fierce, you even knocked off some pieces of scalp from your head.

There was a big hole in the shoulder blade from the knife, and two of them had fever last night and are still receiving IV drips!"

"They must be the three who jumped into the sea to escape. They wanted to kidnap the two fishermen. My brother and Boss Zou saw that they were beaten unconscious, so they took action out of anger."

Li Changle looked at him with fear, "You won't arrest us, will you?"

Captain Zhou saw this and said seriously, "How is that possible? You guys help catch the robbers, and we catch you, doesn't that mean we are protecting the robbers?"

Li Changle nodded quickly, "You are right, we are doing what is right and we should give awards to encourage everyone to do more good deeds."

It won’t happen now, but it will happen in the future. Not only will you have to pay a large sum of money, but you may even have to stay in jail for a few years.

"Don't ask about those people. Once we have found out everything, we will tell you what we should tell you. I will keep an eye on the ship for you. Wait for my news."

"Thank you, Captain Zhou!" Li Changle said gratefully, "When my brother is demobilized, I'll let him work under you if you don't mind."

Captain Zhou smiled and said, "I heard from Accountant Chen last time that your family is a military family. What branch of the military is your brother in?"

"Navy!" Li Changle smiled proudly, "My brother is very good in the army and even won an award."

Captain Zhou smiled and said, "The Navy is good, but the Border Police Station is a military job. I suggest that he retire and go to the Maritime Administration, where he can specialize in related fields. You can mention this to him when he is transferred."

"Thank you Captain Zhou for your guidance!" Li Changle had lived two lifetimes, but only today did he figure out that the border police station was a military organization. He thanked him with an awkward smile.
