Chapter 33: The Sun Family's Troubles
As one of Xia Feng's few friends, he didn't stand idly by when the stone had an accident, and after his parents had an accident, Ling Dayun also took care of him.
So after figuring out the ins and outs, Xia Feng almost didn't hesitate, and immediately went back to the room to change his clothes, ready to go out to find someone together.
"Don't worry, Ling Shi, like you, is a veteran of the sea for a long time, maybe he just ran into trouble, and it won't be a big deal. ”
Cheng Siqi was like an ordinary wife at this time, helping Xia Feng pack up his things while comforting him.
"I'm sorry! Uncle Ling is still waiting outside, you can only talk about what happened there when you come back," Because he was in a hurry, Xia Feng put on his clothes in three or two clicks, and had some apologies on his face before leaving.
"What are you talking about, it's not a big deal, it's okay to discuss it later, let's go quickly", Cheng Siqi said with some anger in her tone, very dissatisfied with Xia Feng's apology, because she is not the kind of person who messes around.
"Okay, it may be late today, you are not in good health, go and rest early", although Cheng Siqi looked shy, she still mustered up the courage to step forward and help tidy up her clothes, Xia Feng only felt warm in his heart when he saw this.
is no longer like before, every time he goes to sea, he feels like a grave, because now Xia Feng knows that there is still someone in the family who always cares about him and thinks about him.
After leaving Cheng's house, Xia Feng saw that Ling Dayun was unable to move, so he put it on his back without saying a word, and then galloped all the way to the dock.
Although Ling Dayun struggled to go by himself, he was still very moved in his heart, perhaps because he was infected by the confidence in Xia Feng's body, and the anxiety in his heart was also slightly relieved.
"Uncle Ling, don't worry, we can go back and forth in that sea area with our eyes closed, and the stone will definitely be fine, it is estimated that we have forgotten the time when we encounter a large cargo." ”
Along the way, Xia Feng kept comforting Ling Dayun, the old couple had a son, and he liked to think about the bad when he encountered a little trouble, and he was also old, he was worried that if he was in a hurry again.
Although the Ling family has a bad life, there are still many relatives of the seven aunts and eight aunts in the village, and the stone is a single seedling, so when Xia Feng arrived, there were already many people surnamed Ling gathered on the dock.
Ling Dayun made a special trip to Cheng's house, probably hoping that Xia Feng could help lead the way, after all, he and Ling Shi were the only two people who frequented that sea area.
However, the strange thing is that the relatives of the Ling family gathered together at this time, and they were not preparing for the sea, but were arguing with another group of people about something.
"Human life is at stake, and everyone is a neighbor, can't your Li family make a concession and make it a little cheaper?"
"I'm a part-time worker, how much money to charge is a decision made by Boss Li, these three watches in the middle of the night, you can't let me run and post upside down, right?"
Xia Feng only listened to a few words from afar, and guessed the general situation of the matter, because when leaving the port at night, the sea was windy and rough, and ordinary small fishing boats would definitely not work.
It is estimated that the Ling family is planning to rent a larger boat, but looking at it now, the price between the two sides should not be negotiated.
Sure enough, as soon as Xia Feng arrived at the dock with Ling Dayun on his back, a middle-aged woman with an old face and a haggard expression ran over in a panic.
"His father, the Li family has to bite to death and has to rent a boat for 3,000, how can this be done?"
Three thousand yuan may be just a meal or a gift for some people, but for the old couple of the Ling family, it is tantamount to an astronomical amount.
Since Ling Dayun's accident, the family has been supported by stones alone, plus Zhong Ling, who is studying in the provincial capital, sometimes he can't help it, and the stones can borrow money from Xia Feng.
So now, it is impossible for the old couple of the Ling family to come up with three thousand yuan in their hands.
The rest of the relatives can contribute to the effort, but when it comes to money, they are all concerned about the left and right, and no one wants to give the cushion first.
If it was fine in the past, but now the life and death of the stone is uncertain, and the second elder has no ability to work, and the relatives are worried that the money will not be recovered, so the situation is frozen for a while.
Looking at the second elder with a desperate face, Xia Feng flashed a trace of unbearability in his heart, and directly pushed away the crowd and walked in.
"Yang Bald, you are also half a villager, don't you know the truth that human life is at stake? At this time, you still dare to sit on the ground and raise the price?" It's not that Xia Feng can't take out three thousand yuan, but the Sun family's behavior is obviously taking advantage of the fire to rob, so this wind must not rise.
"Yo, isn't this Xia Feng! Don't talk nonsense with me, the rules are set by the boss, three thousand yuan, no one is missing. ”
Sun Dashu knew the relationship between Xia Feng and the Ling family, so in order to take revenge for the incident in the afternoon, he specially instructed before leaving that the surname Yang was just an ordinary worker, how could he dare to disobey Sun Dashao's meaning.
"Xiao Feng is here, you see if you don't help put the money on first, the stone can't wait!" Everyone knows about selling fish in the afternoon, so as soon as Xia Feng came forward, someone instigated him to pay for it.
"Look, we all know that you have made a fortune, just three thousand yuan, so you can give it quickly, lest you say that Lao Tzu is not close to people," Yang Bald faced such a person, in fact, the pressure was not small, and he hoped that Xia Feng could make some blood at the moment, and quickly fooled things over.
And the most important thing is that only the big ship of the Sun family has returned to Hong Kong, which is why Sun Dashu dares to be so arrogant.
Xia Feng would not get used to his stinky problems, and immediately took out his mobile phone when he heard the words.
"Hey, where have you been?"
"Don't bother with it, you probably won't be able to find anything else today besides my ship. ”
Xia Feng's call, Yang Bald didn't care at all, because he had specially inquired before, and there would be no ship back to Hong Kong in a short time.
"Toot toot ....... ”
But at this moment, the whistle of a fishing boat sounded not far away, and it turned out that the peddler Qingzi drove the boat back.
This is the peak fishing season, so Qingzi also rented a medium-sized fishing boat in order to facilitate the pulling of goods, and it was with this in mind that Xia Feng called when he went out just now.
Because of the calculation of the time, Qingzi should also go back when he sent fish to Anyang Town, so after receiving Xia Feng's call, he rushed back almost at full speed.
The reason why I wanted to talk nonsense with Yang Bald just now was just because I was worried that Qingzi would not be able to catch up, after all, human life is at stake, and if you delay it for one more minute, the stone will be more dangerous.
The fishing boat entered the port, and regardless of Yang Bald's constipated expression, Xia Feng took a few young men and women on the boat, and when he left, he faced the two elders of the Ling family with a sad face, and Xia Feng left a reassuring look.
Because of the low temperature on the sea, even if Ling Dayun tried his best to get on the boat and go along, he was finally persuaded by Xia Feng, he didn't want to freeze his old family before he found the stone.
"Toot toot ....... ”
The whistle sounded again, and under the control of the peddler Qingzi, the fishing boat flexibly turned its bow and drove into the unknown darkness, Xia Feng's face was resolute, and he made up his mind to find Ling Shi.
