Chapter 292 Why Not Run
Chapter 292 Why Not Run
The old wine had a strong aftereffect and they had to go out to sea in the early morning, so they didn't dare to drink too much. Each of them drank a bowl and boasted while eating.
Chen Yongwei looked at the time and said with a red face: "Brother, I'm full, I'm going to watch a play with Achan."
Li Changle waved his hand, "Get lost! You're a man who values women over friends!"
Li Daxiao also wanted to watch the show, so he stood up with Chen Yongwei and said to Li's father and others, "Atanggong, Ashu, I'm going back too."
"Ah Xiao, wait!"
Father Li went into the house and took out two mooncakes and two "salt-holding" rice fish, and handed them to Li Daxiao. "Ale and the others prepared these for you. Go home and go to bed early and drink less."
"I know, Grandpa Tang." Li Daxiao happily took it, "I'll come early tomorrow morning."
"Okay!" Father Li sent Li Daxiao away and sighed to the others, "This child is dragged down by the pile of children his parents gave birth to."
"Now we are not allowed to have children even if we want to!" said Li Changle, who still wanted a little girl. He felt there was no hope. Anan loved teaching so much, and if he had more than one child, he would lose his job.
"Yes, as long as they don't have five children a year like Ah Xiao's parents did, and have one every three years, a family still needs three children. One son is really too few, and it's easy to spoil the child."
"You also said that there is no preference for sons over daughters, then why is it that if you are reborn as a son, you are not allowed to have a second child? If you are reborn as a daughter, you are allowed to have a second child?"
"If you're lucky enough to have a daughter as your first child, wouldn't it be nice if your second child is a son?"
"How can it be that good!" Li Changle sighed, "You guys are still the best, you have two daughters, while I only have two bad boys."
The burden of raising children is light now, so people are not allowed to have children even if they want to.
When raising one child in the future becomes more difficult than raising ten now, people will be encouraged to have children. Thinking of this, Li Changle wanted to utter a traditional Chinese quintessence!
The masters grumbled a few words, then, at the order of Li's father, they put the plates and cups away and brought them into the house.
Li Changle thought about leaving in the early morning tomorrow, "Brother-in-law, how many people in your village want watches?"
"Ah Xi said there are five or six. Bring out a few more."
"I'll give you fifteen. Tell them that our price is ten bucks cheaper than the black market in Lucheng."
"Ah Xi has told them. Please write down the price of each type for me to avoid confusion."
Li Changle gave the watch to Zhang Dejin. After taking a shower, he didn't want to go to the theater. He dragged his tired body back to the house and lay down to sleep. When he woke up, it was time to set off.
When the brothers arrived at the dock, they saw Wang Xincheng already waiting there. After greeting him, they bought some ice cubes and got on the boat. Chen Yongwei had already filled the tank with fuel.
Second Brother Li and Li Changle went to buy diesel. Big Brother Li brought Wang Xincheng on board and introduced him to Chen Yongwei.
"Uncle Awei!" Wang Xincheng called out honestly.
"Just call me Awei!" Chen Yongwei scratched his head and said embarrassedly.
Brother Li secretly found it funny when he saw this. Now, there was one more person who was not very smart. "Acheng and I are in the same boat. I will ask your uncle to teach you later."
"Hey hey!" Wang Xincheng followed him onto the boat. The fishing boat he had helped before was not equipped with a diesel engine or a trawl net. It was an old-fashioned rowing boat that also used a hand-cast net.
They only operate near the coast and have never been to the sea outside Yantou Mountain.
After Li Changle and Li Erge came back from refueling, the fishing boat sailed out of the dock and headed straight towards the waters of Chuiyuan Island.
From a distance, he noticed that three rudder lights were lit side by side in the waters of Chuiyuan Island. "Fuck, who is so shameless? They don't even follow the rules?"
"Brother, it's probably that bastard Lai Mao and the thugs in town."
"Speed up and catch up with big brother." Li Changle saw that big brother Li in front of him slowed down, so he stepped on the accelerator and shouted to him, "Brother, someone is looking for trouble."
Brother Li said sullenly, "You should know the rules. Don't be impulsive. Go up and take a look first."
Lai Bao, who was on the opposite boat, also saw the fishing boat coming and pulled Juanmao worriedly, "Brother, let's go quickly. If you don't follow the rules, you will suffer."
"You monkey-brain, you are still a leopard. I think you will be called a rat from now on." Curly looked at him with contempt. "I tell you, whoever has the stronger fist rules the rules these days."
"No, the rules at sea are different. They are operating in this area, so other ships cannot come."
Lai Bao became extremely jealous when he thought of the fish caught in the traps. No wonder the Li brothers stayed here and stayed there. Last time they got tiger eels, and this time they got twenty or thirty sea cucumbers.
"What do you mean, you little rascal?" The man with a face full of flesh glared at him, "You said to come earlier, and I brought people here earlier.
We are having a great time, and you want me to leave? Don’t you see that this net is full of money? "
Of course you are not afraid. We are from the same village. I will be in trouble when I go home.
Lai Bao said with a sad face, "Big Head Brother, you really have to follow the rules when you're out on the sea. If you don't believe me, go back and ask your relatives.
Big Brother, we have already collected their traps and got so many good things that we can sell them for a lot of money. Let me tell you, that old jerk Li Changle is very fierce..."
"Who are you trying to scare, you monkey?" Datou slapped Lai Bao in the face. "Get lost. If you're afraid, just hide in the cabin and don't come out. There are more than a dozen of us and only four of them. It's three against one, so I'm not afraid of them!"
"Big head brother, this kid is too timid, don't take him to play in the future." "Hurry up and follow the instructions, I'm closing the net."
“Here they come, here they come!” A dozen thugs came over with flashlights.
Lai Bao regretted telling Juanmao the news that the Li family's fish were good. Seeing that Li Changle and their boat were getting closer and closer, he hurriedly hid in the cabin.
Li Changle's fishing boat was moving side by side with Big Brother Li's. Their boats were getting closer and closer to the other two boats. The boat on the opposite side was even more arrogant. When they saw them coming, they showed no intention of giving way.
At the same time, they arrogantly shone a dozen flashlights towards them.
Li Changle and his brother slowly brought the boat closer and stopped about ten meters away from them. They saw three fishing boats lined up together, with someone pulling a net on the bow of the middle boat.
"Your aunt..." Chen Yongwei cursed in a local dialect and picked up a stick in anger, "Brother, look, they are still fighting."
There were twelve or thirteen gangsters standing on the boat, one by one, shining flashlights at the man pulling the net. They seemed not to have seen Li Changle and the others coming, and they cheered wildly as they watched the man shaking the net.
"Big Head Brother, this looks like a grouper, right?"
"Fuck, it's a grouper! Are you from the seaside?"
"Wow! This is a cutlassfish, look, it's shining silver!"
"Of course I just pulled it up!"
"This kind of food is delicious, so fresh that it makes your eyebrows drop!"
Li Changle looked at the gang of thugs coldly, thinking that Brother Li's approach of using courtesy before force would only encourage their arrogance, so he turned and walked towards the toolbox.
Brother Li shouted at the man pulling the net, "What's wrong with you guys? Do you know the rules?"
More than a dozen flashlights were directed at Brother Li's boat at the same time. Big Head sneered and shouted, "What are the rules? Even a three-year-old knows the principle of first come, first served. Are you getting old and confused?"
Curly shook his legs, "Fuck, we didn't see a single hair of a person when we came here, and you come and say it's yours? Why didn't you come and guard it earlier? You come so late, you can't even eat hot shit in time."
Li Changle recognized that it was the curly-haired guy from that night, and was sure that it was Lai Mao who brought them here. He took out the bullets and loaded them into the gun chamber without saying a word.
It's obvious that this kind of gangster is strong on the outside but weak on the inside, and he is ruthless and cruel. It's impossible for him to sneak in and pull the trap in the middle of the night. He would have gone to rob the boat long ago.
Brother Li picked up the harpoon and pointed it at Juanmao, cursing, "Fuck your ancestors, which village are you from, you jerk, how dare you be so arrogant?
In terms of first come first served, I have been working in this area for more than a month, and the ground cage net is still there. Are you blind and your eye sockets are gone?"
"Oh oh!" A gangster waved a flashlight, "Brothers, did you hear that? These old bastards are still here. They still know they have the trap net."
"Hahaha, you old jerk. We have already collected those traps for you. We are so considerate and put them back for you. No thanks!"
A group of thugs holding flashlights, relying on their numbers, shouted at Li Changle and the others.
"Get lost, don't bother me fishing, just run around for a bit and come back when you guys have a good time."
Lai Bao heard the loud shouting outside and thought that Li Changle and his brothers were scared, so he excitedly came out of the cabin.
Chen Yongwei picked up the battery lamp and turned it on to the brightest level. The strong light shone directly onto the small wooden boat and he saw Lai Bao coming out.
"Scumbag, damn your ancestors... How dare you disobey the rules and bring people from other villages to grab the land!"
"Come out, you bastard! We are here. What are you afraid of just a few old bastards?" Curly-haired shouted at Li Changle while holding a long iron rod. "You old monkey, get out of the way quickly! Don't wait for me to use force on you!"
"Big head brother, those old bastards, why are you afraid of him? Just rush over and beat them to death! Knock them over and feed them to the turtles!"
Datou held the iron rod and pointed at Brother Li and the others, "Get lost! You are still talking about rules to me. I am the rule. Do you understand, you old bastard?"
A skinny monkey excitedly waved a flashlight and a stick, "Big Head Brother, drive the boat over and teach these old guys a lesson, so they know what the rules are!"
"Hahaha, tell a few more old turtles to strip naked and swim a few laps in the water."
Second Brother Li turned his head to look at Li Changle, and saw him walking towards the bow with a hunting rifle. He was immediately relieved. He casually held the harpoon, looked at the gangsters who were arrogantly shouting at them, and asked Wang Xincheng who was holding the wooden stick tightly.
"Ah Cheng, are you afraid?"
"A little scared!" Wang Xincheng didn't understand Li Changle and his brother. Why didn't they run faster when they knew that the other side had more people and more boats than them?
He remembered his former boss saying that when encountering bad guys at sea and finding that one's side was not at an advantage, one should run as fast as possible.
Otherwise, you may meet a ruthless person who will beat you up, rob your boat, and throw you into the sea. If you are lucky, you will meet a savior and be saved.
You are unlucky. In the vast ocean, no one can see you anyway, so if you drown, your death will be in vain.
Brother Li looked at the honest child and said, "Don't be afraid. They will not dare to act arrogantly soon."
