Chapter 104: Let him join? You ripped off the roof
"Well, you see what I said, right?"
"This kid is such a lazy guy. It's okay for him to go out to sea occasionally, but he won't go out in the wind and rain."
Wu Shuisheng suddenly felt the joy of successfully predicting the topic. He said it in a somewhat boastful tone and then laughed to himself.
"Chen Hui, why don't you want to go out to sea?"
"The means of preserving and keeping marine fish alive are much better now than in previous years, and the profits from going out to sea are still good."
"Do you feel too tired? Or is it boring to go out to sea with us?" Wu Guang asked.
"Uncle Guang, I'm going to tell you something from the bottom of my heart."
"Both my parents died in the sea. I promised my aunt that I would never go to sea, let alone become a fisherman."
"You say, how can people who live by the sea not go to the sea, but it is really not possible to go out to sea and be a fisherman."
Chen Hui rubbed his left and right hands together, his tone inevitably sounded a little heavy.
"How could I have forgotten this?"
Wu Shuisheng suddenly came to his senses a little and rubbed his thick hairy head in fear.
If Chen Huihong knew that I dared to recruit Chen Hui to go out to sea, I'm afraid she would tear the roof off my house.
"Ah, that's it"
Wu Guang was in a dilemma and didn't know what to say next.
If Chen Hui complains about the hard work, the tiring work, and the low pay, I have something to advise him.
There is nothing I can say about this reason. It is so inhumane to drag people there.
"The man who came to collect the fish today is called Chen Yaozu, and he works as a purchaser at the state-owned restaurant."
"I feel like he has a lot of power. He doesn't even need to ask for permission before buying things. Next time we go out for dinner, I'll introduce you to him," Chen Hui continued.
The only reason they wanted to recruit me was because I was good at dealing with people and had the connections.
There are many people who are good at swimming at the seaside, and Chen Hui doesn't mind introducing them through this channel.
It's just an introduction to some people, and it doesn't require Chen Yaozu to buy fish from them. He shouldn't have any objection.
"Human spirit!"
Wu Guang cursed with a smile, then added more wine to everyone's glass.
He sighed heavily, looked at Wei Jianjun and Wu Shuisheng and said, "It's fine if Chen Hui doesn't go, but I don't want to take my nephew Wu Shun with me anymore."
"I agree with this." Wei Jianjun also echoed.
Wu Shuisheng looked at his two partners and nodded in agreement.
"Apart from being a little lazy, a bit calculative, and a bit fond of taking advantage of others, Wu Dahua is fine otherwise," said Chen Hui.
If for no other reason, just because when I was preparing to go into the sea, he was still enthusiastic enough to help me find tools and gave me some kind advice.
"Isn't this enough? Hey, you don't know."
It would have been better if this topic hadn't started.
At the beginning, the three of us were talking to each other, and we became more and more excited.
Finally, the three of them unanimously agreed that if Wu Shun could go, he could go, and if he couldn't go, they would not take Wu Dahua with them no matter what.
At worst, the three of us can go by ourselves. It will be a little tiring, but we can get more money.
It makes the same sense if you earn more money and retire earlier.
"That's right, we'll go talk to Wu Shun about this some other day." Wei Jianjun said, drinking the wine in the glass.
"I think we should go today instead of waiting for another day."
"I just saw Wu Shun's wife picking vegetables and going home. He must be at home today." Wu Guang put down the cup and said.
The three of them hit it off immediately, and while they were still drunk, they put down their bowls and chopsticks, said hello to each other and left.
Suddenly, only Liu Yuzhu, Chen Hui and An Wenjing were left at the dinner table.
"Oh, look at these three people. How can they just leave without saying anything?"
"Let's eat our food, don't worry about them, they must have drunk too much." Liu Yuzhu said with a smile, a little embarrassed. "Okay, let's continue eating, Auntie's cooking skills are really good."
Chen Hui was used to eating for free in the village, so he had developed a thick face.
While eating, he chatted with Liu Yuzhu, and only left with An Wenjing after he had eaten and drunk his fill.
On the way back, An Wenjing didn't say a word.
Chen Hui asked curiously, "What are you thinking about?"
"I was thinking that Uncle Guang invited us to dinner this time because he was obviously prepared."
"My aunt is really amazing. She sensed something unusual right away." An Wenjing said.
His serious look made Chen Hui laugh, "I thought it was something that was worth your thinking about."
"Brother Chen Hui, you didn't figure it out too, did you?" An Wenjing asked, looking up.
"Yeah!" Chen Hui nodded with a smile.
"Haha, am I the only one who didn't notice it?"
"But since you knew they had other intentions, why did you agree to go?" An Wenjing asked puzzled.
"We just wanted to work together. We didn't have any other agenda. We went there mainly because they were nice people."
"Huh? A nice person?" An Wenjing was puzzled.
This sounds simple, but it is the truth.
Chen Hui smiled, took An Wenjing's hand, and gave her an education on human nature.
He has seen a lot of kindness in the countryside, which is very heartwarming.
Chen Hui has seen more evil than anyone else among rural people, to the point where it's frightening enough to just think about it.
Earning a thousand dollars from a single fish and putting the money into your pocket intact without any problems is not as easy as it seems.
Spending money to avoid disaster is a small matter, but if you meet someone so cruel that he might throw you into the sea just for a thousand dollars, it is possible.
For safety reasons, fishing boats in Dasha Village do not allow outsiders.
If you want to rent a boat to go out to sea, you must have someone from the village to introduce you and act as a guarantor.
"Speaking of which, Wu Guang and the others just want me to go out to sea with them. It won't be a big loss for them if I don't go."
"But if they don't play with me, then my loss will be much greater!"
"So, I have to reject them with a reason they can't refuse, and then agree to introduce Chen Yaozu to them." Chen Hui concluded.
"Wow, it's so complicated!" An Wenjing's brain was a little overwhelmed.
"These are all I need to consider. You just need to follow me and live a good life." Chen Hui said with a smile.
According to custom, a married daughter must wear new clothes and bring gifts back to her parents' home early on the third day.
In order to accompany Chen Hui to the sea, I have been delayed for several days.
Chen Huihong did not invite them to dinner.
Take out two big red cloth bags.
One was filled with some dried fish that I had dried myself, and some seafood that I had just bought from the pier.
The other one contained the fabric that Chen Hui bought.
Seeing the two men coming back from their meal, he gave them the food and urged them to hurry back to the village.
"I also want to go to Wu Si's house." Chen Hui said, holding the bag.
"It's impossible to find a substitute teacher for the village primary school. It doesn't matter if it's a day earlier or later."
"Wen Jing hasn't returned home for so many days. I don't know what people are saying about her behind her back. She should go back quickly." Chen Huihong urged.
"Okay, then we'll come back in a few days."
Chen Hui handed all the bags to An Wenjing and took her back to Chenjia Village on his bike.
From a distance, An Wenjing saw three people standing not far from her door, pointing and talking about her house.
