Chapter 296 The letter of understanding is not written in vain
The officials invited by the He and Chen families also came to intercede, "Boss Ah Le, the He, Chen, and Lai families will double the compensation for the fish they stole to make up for your family's losses.

As village cadres, we are also fed up with these young people who don’t learn well, but the oldest among them is only in their twenties, and they still have a long way to go. Please be kind and give them a chance to reform themselves.”

At this time, Accountant Chen came over and called him to the door, whispering, "They said they are willing to compensate you three times for your losses. The people who spoke for the He family just now were town officials. Why don't you just let them go?"

Li Changle took out the list of goods sold today, "Look, Uncle Dong, these are the banknotes from the fish they stole today. The police station has registered them. Do we still want them to pay compensation?"

Accountant Chen glanced at the list and whispered, "The letter of understanding was not written in vain."

"Ok!"

Li Changle turned around and told the two cadres what had happened. "Two leaders, it's not that I'm ruthless. If I hadn't brought my shotgun today, we two boats and five people would have had no idea what would have happened."

As he said this, he changed the subject and said, "As the old saying goes, listening to others' advice is half the battle. Uncle Chen and the two leaders have come forward to mediate. I agree to write a letter of understanding to give those young people a chance to reform.

I also ask parents to pay attention to this. To be frank, these young men are lucky to have met my family. If they had robbed other boat owners, after robbing a few times and tasting the sweetness, who knows what they would do? "

As he spoke, he suddenly felt that what he was doing could be considered as saving young people who had gone astray?
After hearing this, the two cadres shouted to the parents of the Chen and He families, "What are Yaozu and Ah Ming doing? Remember what Boss Ah Le said, otherwise you will get yourself into trouble sooner or later."

"They are so bold that they dare to rob with iron rods and wooden sticks. If we don't teach them a lesson, who knows what kind of lawless things they will do in the future."

If the He and Chen families hadn't come to beg, they really didn't want to step in to mediate. These young men were causing trouble in the town, and if they weren't properly disciplined, they would end up working on sewing machines sooner or later.

"When they come out, we will definitely discipline them properly." Several parents responded with blushing faces.

The elders of the He and Chen families said awkwardly, "Boss Ah Le, we will compensate you for the loss right now. Can you return the two boats to us?"

The two ship owners also stepped forward and promised: "Don't worry, Boss Ale, we promise not to lend to those bastards in the future."

Next, let's talk about compensation. The tiger eels, fish, shrimps and crabs that Lai Bao and Juanmao stole the first time were sold in town for 150. The triple compensation is 450.

This amount was not just Li Changle's empty talk; it was admitted by Lai Bao himself. Several parents and cadres present also heard about it at the police station.

Li Changle took out the list of fish he had sold and said, "These fish have been registered at the police station. My fish were all sent to Phoenix Restaurant for sale. I don't want you to pay me three times the compensation. One time will be enough."

Accountant Chen didn't expect that he only wanted double the compensation, so he said to the town official, "Director He, Atang and his wife are honest and kind, and their children are also honest. If it were someone else, they would definitely ask them to pay triple the compensation today."

"One times the compensation is not much. The Li family is a kind family." Director He nodded in agreement. Several parents and village cadres also said that the Li family was a kind family.

The Chen and He families and several other parents kept expressing their gratitude and repeatedly assured that they would discipline their children well.

Lai Da was both angry and jealous. He was angry at Lai Bao for doing something stupid, which made his family lose face and pay money. He was jealous of Li Changle's family for being lucky enough to find such a profitable place.

Accountant Chen shook his head secretly after reading it, thinking that the old saying that if the upper beam is crooked, the lower beams will be crooked is absolutely true.

The total amount of compensation for the two times was 929. The first compensation of 450 was borne individually by the Chen family, the Lai family and the other three families, and the second compensation of 479 was borne jointly by the thirteen families.

Except for the five families that came, the other families didn't even show up. The Chen family, the He family, the Lai family and the other three families had to discuss and advance the money.

Of course, the Chen, He and Lai families still account for the majority, because the children of these three families are the masterminds, and He Yaozu of the He family is still the boss of these dozen gangsters.

Li Changle didn't care what they thought or how they divided their opinions, as long as he got the compensation money.

After the people present discussed it, the parents of the He family, the Chen family and three other families went home to get the money. After hesitating for a long time, Lai Da had no choice but to go home to get the money, and gave it to Li Changle with a painful look on his face.

Li Changle felt that it would be better if he felt the pain in his heart. Only when he felt the pain in his heart would he know to keep a close eye on his children at home, so as to prevent them from stealing everywhere and eventually end up in jail.

After those families brought the money, Li Changle wrote a letter of apology and gave it to them, then went to return the cranks and fishing gear to them.

The group of people invited Accountant Chen and the two cadres to go to the police station to submit a letter of apology. Li Changle and Li's father sent them to the intersection before going back.

Brother Li and Chen Yongwei came back carrying the killed and cleaned fish. When they heard that they had received nearly 1,000 yuan in compensation, they both said at the same time, "Who dares to steal our traps in the future?"

"We can't hide the fact that there are sea cucumbers in our area anymore. Maybe those nearby islands will be occupied by someone this afternoon."

Brother Li was very tolerant. "Who cares? As long as they can get the internet, it's their luck."

Chen Yongwei thought of the sea ducks and said, "Brother, remember to catch a few ducks tomorrow morning and send them to Killer Whale Island to raise them, so that we don't have no sea ducks and duck eggs to eat in the future."

"The sea there is far away, and people who catch sea ducks would definitely not be willing to sail there."

Li Changle thought about Ah Cheng's matter and said, "I asked Ah Cheng to bring a quilt over. When we go out to sea in the middle of the night, we can stay at the old house with our parents."

"He told me that he would bring his bedding tonight."

"Brother, aren't you going to pick up your sister-in-law?"

"want!"

Li Changle hurriedly checked the time and found that it was already eleven o'clock. In another half an hour, Zhou Ruonan and her two children would arrive at Panzhen Station. He took out the money and gave it to Brother Li to keep in his pocket, then rode the tricycle towards Panzhen.

When passing by Ge Changfa's house, he stopped her and said, "Ah Le, my mother said you guys are going to bring the big ship back?" Li Changle took the cigarette he handed over and said, "The day after tomorrow."

Ge Changfa leaned on the handlebars and asked, "Are you selling or renting out your boat?"

"With only a few people, just sell it off."

Ge Changfa glanced at his eldest brother's house and whispered, "Can you sell me your boat?"

Li Changle looked at him in surprise, "You and your elder brother?"

Ge Changfa smiled bitterly, "The two of us have different ideas. It's better for us to separate and do our own things, so that the last bit of brotherhood will be worn away over time."

Li Changle patted his shoulder and said, "Okay, when you're done here, come find me."

"Thank you, brother!" Ge Changfa clasped his fists in gratitude.

Li Changle laughed and punched him, "Let's talk when we have time. I have to hurry to pick up my wife and kids."

"okay!"

Li Changle pedaled hard and rushed to the bus station breathlessly. After waiting for two minutes, the bus arrived.

The two sons stretched their heads and waved at him happily, "Dad, we are back."

Li Changle hurried over and shouted at the two of them, "Hurry up and put your head in. What if you get squeezed by the wrong car?"

The roads are narrow these days, and when large trucks pass each other, their carriages are almost touching, and it is most likely to get into an accident if you stick your head outside.

Zhou Ruonan hurriedly pulled the two children back to sit, got out of the car and said to Li Changle: "I noticed it on the way, but I didn't notice it because we were already here."

"I'm just worried that they'll get used to it and stick their heads out in the future." Li Changle took the backpack she was carrying, put it on the tricycle, and said to the two children, "Don't do that next time, remember?"

"remember."

Li Changle rubbed their heads and asked, "Is the bamboo basket on the luggage rack ours?"

"They are all ours." Zhou Ruonan, holding the two children, followed behind the tricycle and helped to take the bamboo baskets and stack them on the tricycle.

Li Changle got down from the roof of the car and waved to his wife and son, "Get in the car, let's go home."

"Hey!" Li Xiaohai didn't forget to help Li Xiaozhou when he got in the car. Zhou Ruonan sat down behind Li Changle. "You must be exhausted these days, right?"

"I'm so tired." Li Changle complained quickly, "I go out to sea at midnight every day... I don't rest until eleven or twelve in the afternoon."

Zhou Ruonan looked at his clothes, which he had not had time to change, with distress, "Mother asked an old Chinese doctor to prescribe medicine for you, and made you a jar of medicinal wine. She also bought some American ginseng for you to take on board to drink.

I also bought you three sets of cotton sweaters and cotton trousers, three sets of waterproof jumpsuits for going out to sea, as well as gloves and a fur hat. "

A'niang said that A'le had a hard time at sea, so she bought him a few extra sets of clothes to change into to prevent him from getting wet and getting rheumatism after wearing them for a long time.

"My mother-in-law still loves me." Li Changle was very happy. He turned his head and looked at his wife and children. "Are you hungry? Sister brought a lot of rice cakes and glutinous rice cakes. I'll go home and make egg glutinous rice cakes for you."

"Dad, I want to eat fried rice cakes!" Li Xiaozhou said as he stood up and lay on his back, hugging his neck, "Are cousin Xiaohui and cousin here?"

"Here we are, we also caught a family of blue crabs and put them all in the steamer."

Li Xiaozhou got jealous and let go of his neck. "I'm done with you. You took cousin Xiaohui to go fishing without even calling me."

Li Xiaohai rolled his eyes at him and said, "Little idiot, how do we call Dad in Lucheng?"

Zhou Ruonan pinched her youngest son's nose and said, "That's right, you little idiot."

The child calmed down immediately, turned around and hugged Li Changle's neck, "Dad, take us to the sea after lunch."

"It's hot, don't hug Dad." Zhou Ruonan pulled him to sit down, "I have to go to school this afternoon. I skipped class this morning."

School started this morning and she had classes in the afternoon. Thinking that she hadn't spent Mid-Autumn Festival with her mother for many years, she took the children to stay at her mother's house for one more night.

"Anan, we will go test the boat tomorrow, and pick up the big ship the day after tomorrow."

"Why so fast?"

"The Zhao family was captured by the anti-smuggling ship..." Li Changle told her what happened, turned his head proudly, and whispered, "I'll show you something good when we get home."

Zhou Ruonan looked at him worriedly, "Ah Le, we must not do anything illegal or criminal."

"Don't worry, I won't!" Li Changle said again, "Sister came yesterday and I told them to do business. Second brother said the big ship is back... so I agreed."
