Chapter 224: Playing on the River

After getting in the car, Chen Fan asked, "Where do you want to play?"

Chen Zijin said: "Brother, why don't you take me to take a boat!"

Chen Fan said: "It's too naΓ―ve to take a boat, isn't it?" He thought Chen Zijin was talking about the kind of duck boat rowed in the park.

Chen Zijin said: "Brother, it's not what you think, it's a boat on the river!"

"Boats on the river. Chen Fan suddenly realized, "Okay!"

Chen Zijin quipped: "Brother, have you ever been on a boat? Don't be scared and your legs ......will shake when the time comes."

Chen Fan smiled, my Chen Gongzi has been on all the boats on the sea, what is the great thing about the boats on the river.

"What, look down on your brother? staying will let you see what it means to be calm like a mountain in the wind and rain. ”

The two walked over on the cobblestones.

"Uncle, can this boat go to the river?"

The middle-aged man said: "Of course you can go, what's the matter, you want to cross the river?"

Ten minutes later, Chen Fan took Chen Zijin to the riverside, where boats came and went, and the waves of the river hit the embankment endlessly.

After parking the car, the two went down the embankment.

I saw a steamer docked on the shore, and on the deck, a middle-aged man with unkempt hair was squatting on the side of the boat smoking the Yellow Crane Tower.

Chen Fan's head was full of black lines: "Uncle, this is my sister's ......"

The middle-aged man smiled, threw down a rope and said, "Can you climb up?"

Chen Fan said: "Zijin, you go up first, I'll support you below!"

Chen Fan said: "Can you take the two of us to the river for a ride?"

The middle-aged man smiled and said, "Okay, you two are quite leisurely and elegant!"

He subconsciously regarded Chen Fan and Chen Zijin as a couple.

Chen Zijin waved his scissor hands: "Oh yes! It's finally here, brother, it's your turn." She bent down, ready to help pull the rope.

Chen Fan said: "You go to the side a little, I will let you see what it means to fly the eaves and walk the wall!"

Chen Zijin and the middle-aged man didn't know what he was going to do, and since Chen Fan said so, they each took a step back.

Chen Zijin moved his muscles and bones and was eager to try.

She grabbed the hemp rope and climbed up, the hull of the boat was more than two meters high, and she couldn't climb up halfway through the air.

Chen Fan held her ankle and pushed it up, and the middle-aged man also pulled on it, and finally got her up.

Chen Fan smiled.

The middle-aged man handed over a yellow crane tower and said, "Little brother, come to a cigarette!"

Chen Fan waved his hand and said, "My girlfriend won't let me smoke." ”

Chen Fan spat in the palm of his hand and rubbed it, took seven or eight steps back, ran and accumulated, he kicked on the cement cabin, the whole person jumped up like a monkey, his hands on the edge of the deck, pulled up, turned sideways, and got on the boat.

Chen Zijin was dumbfounded: "Wow! Brother, you are so amazing!"

The middle-aged man said without modesty: "The little brother is very skilled, and he has half the demeanor of my youth!"

Chen Zijin said generously: "Uncle, why don't we give you a hundred, take us around." ”

The middle-aged man smiled and said, "Okay, two packs of cigarettes, I'll let my daughter-in-law drive the boat!" He unanchored the ship and walked into the cabin, and after a while, the ship started and the hull began to shake violently.

Chen Fan was so frightened that he hurriedly grabbed the stranded column of the anchor.

The middle-aged man stuffed the cigarette butt into his mouth, lit the lighter, and took a puff: "A pack of cigarettes every day, happy like a fairy." ”

Chen Fan asked, "How to calculate the cost of this charter boat?"

The middle-aged man said: "I don't do this either, you just look at the meaning." ”

The propellers make a splash, paddle the waves, and the ship heads toward the center of the river.

The middle-aged man walked out of the cabin and said with a smile: "This ship hasn't been opened for a long time, how about it, it's not scared!"

"Ah, haven't opened for a long time?" Chen Fan beat a drum in his heart, this boat will not suddenly turn on its side, let's have a death crown!

"Haha!" Chen Zijin pointed at Chen Fan, and he laughed, "Brother, aren't you afraid, why is your face white now?"

Chen Fan said stiffly: "I'm not afraid, I'm worried about your safety......"

He secretly said in his heart: This ship doesn't look too safe, the ships he sits on the sea are as stable as Mount Tai, which is like the steamer on the river, which began to shake violently as soon as it started.

Chen Fan suddenly had an indescribable feeling in his heart.

The Yangtze River is forbidden, and the fishermen who rely on the Yangtze River fishing for a living are miserable.

Chen Fan asked, "Is there a subsidy?"

The middle-aged man said: "Yes, we are fishermen, and the Yangtze River will be banned from fishing in March, so we will have nothing to do." ”

Chen Fan said: "So that's the case, then don't you plan to go back to your hometown?"

The middle-aged man smiled bitterly: "How can there be a home, this ship is my home!"

Chen Fan said: "Don't you think about getting subsidies?" He regretted this sentence when he asked it, isn't this revealing other people's scars, the middle-aged man has just said that this boat is their home, and they are homeless without the boat. How can there be a reason to destroy the home with your own hands.

I saw the middle-aged man shaking his head helplessly.

Chen Fan said: "Then what are you going to do?"

The middle-aged man took a puff of cigarette, looked at the Taotao River in the distance and said, "There is a subsidy of 50,000 yuan, on the condition that the boat is pulled to be destroyed." ”

"Huh, it's only 50,000 yuan?"

The middle-aged man said: "Yes, this ban is ten years, and many of my friends have already wrecked their ships and taken subsidies and left." ”

Chen Fan said: "You take out the ginseng and I'll take a look." ”

"Okay. The middle-aged man turned and went to the cabin.

The river breeze blows gently, with a little water vapor, which is refreshing.

Middle-aged humanitarian: "It's impossible to work part-time, I was going to run business behind others, but last month I was deceived by a Gou Niang who raised two thousand yuan, he said that ginseng is easy to sell, you can take ginseng at a low price, I took two thousand yuan, but I couldn't sell it, and I lost it all in the cabin." ”

Chen Fan said: "Why is ginseng difficult to sell?"

Middle-aged humane: "Ginseng is also divided into domestic and wild, that guy lied to me about breeding and said that it was wild, I was also stupid, and I suffered a loss of no culture......"

Chen Zijin said quietly: "My mother ......"

She took out her mobile phone and took a few selfies on the river, and pulled Chen Fan to take a few photos.

The middle-aged man came out with a snakeskin bag of ginseng, and the amount was quite a lot, and he looked like he was thirty or forty pounds.

Chen Zijin took a deep breath and shouted loudly at the river: "Lin Wanfang, I hate you!"

The voice drifted out with the river wind, far, far away.

Chen Fan asked, "Who is Lin Wanfang?"

Chen Fan said: "Then don't tell them that they are domestic." ”

The middle-aged man said: "That's not good, if we earn this kind of money with a clear conscience, what's the difference between that liar?"

Chen Fan said: "What are the ways to eat this ginseng?"

He opened the snakeskin bag and said to Chen Fan: "Look, it's these ginseng." ”

Chen Fan rummaged through the ginseng and said, "These ginseng are white and fat, they look okay, haven't you tried to set up a stall by the river to sell them?"

"I tried, but few people bought it, and when I heard that it wasn't wild, all of them left. ”

Chen Fan said: "Then is this breeding effective?"

The middle-aged man said: "Of course there is, although the effect is not as good as the wild one, but the effect is still there." ”

Chen Fan said: "Okay, I'll take this bag of ginseng, how about giving you 3,000?"

Middle-aged humane: "Slice to make tea, stew old hen ......"

Chen Fan said: "What is the difference between domestic and wild?"

The middle-aged man said: "The nutritional value of the wild is high, little brother, this thing is an aphrodisiac and kidney tonic for men, and it is definitely good for men!"

Chen Fan touched his nose a little embarrassed: "Uncle, don't get me wrong, I run a company, buy it back and send some benefits to employees, and by the way, I will help you use it." ”

But the middle-aged man had a look of "I understand" and nodded to him frequently.

Suddenly, Chen Fan had the urge to regret buying so much ginseng.

"Huh?" The middle-aged man was taken aback, he only spent more than two thousand yuan to collect this bag of ginseng, but he didn't expect this young man to be willing to spend three thousand to buy it all, this is not for nothing to give him money.

Chen Fan said: "What, don't you sell it?"

The middle-aged man said, "Sell, sell, of course sell!" He suddenly smiled from ear to ear, "Little brother, you are really a good person! With this bag of ginseng, I guarantee that you will be fierce every day, seven times a night!"

The steamer slowed down, and Chen Zijin sat down on the side of the boat, stretched his feet into the river, and shook his feet in enjoyment. Chen Fan pulled her hard behind to prevent her from being blown down by the wind.

Chen Zijin said: "Brother, you can come along! It's okay!"

The middle-aged man said: "Little brother, you can go and tie it up with two ropes." ”

Chen Zijin suddenly began to take off her shoes, and she said, "Brother, wait for me to sit on the deck, you pull me, and I will wash my feet in the river." ”

Chen Fan said: "It's better not to do it, it's a bit dangerous." ”

The middle-aged man said: "It's okay, I asked my daughter-in-law to drive the boat slower." He shouted into the cabin, "Daughter-in-law, the speed of the ship is twenty!"

Chen Fan couldn't help but shudder.

Chen Zijin said: "Brother, let's take a picture of our feet together." ”

Chen Fan lifted his feet up and leaned close to Chen Zijin's little feet, the river was rippling, his feet were leaning against each other, and Chen Zijin took a photo with his camera.

He took two ropes, put them around their waists, and tied the other end of the rope to the twisted reel.

With the rope, Chen Fan was settled, he took off his shoes and socks, sat down with Chen Zijin, and put his feet into the river.

In the scorching summer, the river water is cold, and a chill rushes all over the body along the heart of the footboard.

Chen Fan said: "Okay!"

The two had a farmhouse meal on the boat, white rice, cockroach sauce, stir-fried shiitake mushrooms with green vegetables, and seaweed egg soup. Chen Fan feels that sometimes simple food is also a kind of happiness, and these simple foods are no worse than the delicacies of the mountains and seas.

The middle-aged man enthusiastically sent the two away.

She said, "Brother, your feet are so big, much bigger than me!"

Chen Fan said: "I'm a boy, and I'm older than you, so of course my feet are bigger than you!"

After playing on the river for a long time, the middle-aged man said, "It's noon, why don't you have a meal at my house!" ”

Chen Fan said: "Yes!"

The middle-aged man said: "Wow, the little brother is a dragon and a phoenix!"

The middle-aged man was taken aback when he saw the yellow Porsche, which was stylish: "Little brother, this car is yours?"

He helped Chen Fan carry the ginseng up the river embankment.

Chen Fan used the car key to automatically open the trunk.

Chen Fan said: "Awards!"

The middle-aged man put the ginseng in the trunk and waved goodbye to Chen Fan.
