Chapter 3: Hidden Deeply
The meals are very rich, and it seems that they have been specially prepared, but the characteristics of the fishing village are obvious, most of them are related to fish, steamed fish, fried fish, fish balls, etc., but there are not many fresh vegetables.
Zhang Jiacong's woman is a very virtuous, honest and quiet woman, after saying hello to Chen Jin, she stopped talking, Chen Jin asked Zhang Jiacong while eating, "Uncle Cong, I want to ask, if you want to stay in Hong Kong, how can you get a Hong Kong ID card?" β
As early as 1981, the British Government of Hong Kong abolished the policy of giving identity cards to smugglers when they entered the urban area. Chen Jin had seen an article about the oldest smuggler on People's Daily before, and he knew about it.
Even if he goes back to the mainland now, he is obviously a guy with no identity, and since he has arrived in Hong Kong, he plans to stay here, and he is confident that he can make a difference here.
When Zhang Jiacong heard this, his brows furrowed, and he replied for a long time, "I don't know this kind of thing very wellγ»γ»γ»γ»γ»γ» At this time, Zhang Weihao answered, "Why don't you ask Hui Zai γ»γ»γ»γ»γ»γ» them?"
Before he finished speaking, Zhang Jiacong glared at him, "What nonsense, those guys are every good thing." Zhang Weihao was unconvinced, "Now many people know that we saved a person at sea, how could they not know γ»γ»γ»γ»γ»γ»." β
Chen Jin heard something meaningful, and interrupted Zhang Jiacong with a smile and planned to continue to scold Zhang Weihao, "Uncle Cong, is Hui Zai you talking about a person on the road?" β
Seeing Zhang Jiacong nodding a little unhappily, he still smiled, "Since they all know that I am here, there is no way, not to mention, Brother Hao is right, they may have more means." β
Zhang Jiacong, as the village head, is also a person with brains, knowing that that is also a way, he nodded, but said again, "Chen Jin, you don't have to worry, Ah Xiong will come back from school in two days, he has seen a lot of the world, maybe he can have a better way." β
Chen Jin nodded and agreed, the old man has a kind of blind confidence in his promising children, which is also where they are proud, turned his head and asked: "Uncle Cong, is there anything I can help with, even if you tell me, I am strong and wateryγ»γ»γ»γ»γ»γ» I am not bad." β
Young people just have to be diligent and hardworking, Zhang Jiacong was very satisfied with his attitude, but shook his head, "You are just right, you look fine, let's rest more." Chen Jin smiled and patted his chest, "It's okay, Congbo, you can rest assured." β
After eating, Zhang Weihao planned to take Chen Jin out to play, but Zhang Jiacong glared at him, "I'll talk about it in two days." Chen Jin saw Zhang Jiacong's worry at this time, he was an unidentified person, although Zhang Jiacong kindly saved him, but what would outsiders think, now it is better in Zhang Jiacong's house, if he goes out, if he doesn't do well, he will cause trouble for others, at the very least, he has to practice Cantonese well, and then he can find an excuse to prevaricate.
grinned, revealing a mouthful of big white teeth, "Brother Hao, can you talk to me, I want to know about the situation here." β
Zhang Weihao was as bold as his name, nodded, and beckoned Chen Jin into the house where he stayed before, "I originally wanted to take you to go shopping and get acquainted with the γ»γ»γ»γ»γ»γ»." β
Chen Jin smiled and said Zhang Jiacong's worries, turned his head and asked, "Brother Hao, who is that Hui Zai?" β
"I knew you would ask this," Zhang Weihao smiled, "Hui Zai is the boss of the road on our side, he is actually not very bad, but he speaks very impulsively, and often fights with Brother Zhong on the other side and makes trouble, so that everyone has no good impression of him,"
"But you don't have to worry, Hui Zai is an orphan, and when he was a child, he basically grew up eating at my house, and it was quite polite to see my father."
Hearing this, Chen Jin breathed a sigh of relief, although he is very sharp now, but this is not an ancient society, this is a civilized society, and he needs to be recognized, otherwise he can only live in darkness forever, thought about it, and asked a question of concern, "Brother Hao, the police here will not γ»γ»γ»γ»γ»γ»." β
Zhang Weihao waved his hand, "Don't worry, this is not an urban area, there are no hateful Brits, the bad guys are all from their hometown, with my dad here, everyone will turn a blind eye." β
Although he was still worried, Chen Jin had nothing to do for the time being, so he had to chat with Zhang Weihao while speeding up the process of learning Cantonese.
I don't know when, the sky outside was still dark, but Chen Jin heard the sound of Zhang Jiahui and Zhang Weihao getting up and talking, remembering that fishermen usually get up early in the morning when fishing, he turned over.
When I walked outside, the lights were bright, and when I saw Zhang Jiacong and Zhang Weihao going out, I shouted, "Uncle Cong, I'll go and help too!" β
Zhang Jiacong was stunned for a moment, and was about to refuse, Chen Jin covered his mouth and nose with a towel, and then said, "It's okay, Uncle Cong, I'll stay on the boat and pull the net for you, and I won't go anywhere." β
"Are you really okay?" Zhang Jiacong saw that Chen Jin was smart enough to understand his worries, asked, looked at him and nodded, and continued: "Okay, you can pay attention to it when the time comes, the sea is not a joke." β
The father and son of the Zhang family both rode bicycles, Zhang Weihao carried Chen Jin, Chen Jin was not familiar with the road, and he had to keep a low profile, but he was not polite.
There are street lights on the way to the beach, which are hazy, and you can still see the road, but when you get to the beach, it is pitch black, and even with Chen Jin's current eyesight, he can only see some faint shadows of ships on the sea. After asking Zhang Weihao, I realized that it was only three o'clock.
There are also a lot of fishermen who want to go to sea on the beach, those are all villagers of Rongshu Village, and the father and son of the Zhang family are very familiar, everyone greets each other, very familiar, Chen Jin has been standing by the Zhang family's boat, looking at the sea, and these fishermen also show their wisdom, no one asks.
After greeting for a while, after getting ready, the boat started, but instead of casting the net as soon as the boat opened as Chen Jin imagined, it kept driving to the depths of the sea, and it didn't stop after an hour, Chen Jin couldn't help but ask Zhang Weihao, who was driving the boat, "Brother Hao, why don't we cast the net yet?" "Zhang Jiacong is getting old, and he is taking a nap in the boat at this time.
Zhang Weihao was a little surprised to see Chen Jin's spirits, he was sixteen years old and followed his son out to fish, he got up in the morning and had no energy at all, like a frosted eggplant, and it took many days to slowly adapt to it.
Turning his head to look at Zhang Jiacong, who was resting, he smiled, "There are very few fish in the offshore γ»γ»γ»γ»γ»γ»." β
Chen Jin had read a report that the fish in the South China Sea had been harvested, and he understood it very well, looked at the vast sea all around, and asked curiously, "How do you judge the location and distance?" β
Zhang Weihao took out a compass and showed it to Chen Jin, "That's it, everyone is used to it, we are all small boats, small business, unlike those big fishing boats that have special fish guides." "Chen Jin doesn't know what a fish guide is, but it probably means a navigator.
After about an hour and a half of sailing in Shanghai, the sky had turned from black to gray, and slowly there were some hazy shadows, at this time, Zhang Jiacong woke up almost as if he was conditioned, and then began to cast the net.
After casting the net, he didn't pull the net immediately, but had to trawl the net for about half an hour, looking at Zhang Jiacong, who was already a little out of breath after hard work, he felt a little embarrassed.
Chatting casually, in an instant, the sea level where the water and the sky met in the distance emitted a reddish light, although he smiled, it instantly lit up the sky, and even the sea near Chen Jin and them was dyed with a layer of gorgeous colors.
Zhang Jiacong also got up again, got up and beckoned and began to pull the net, the net was very large and heavy, it seemed that there were a lot of things in it, if it was Chen Jin's original arm strength, he would not be able to pull it a few times.
After pulling for a while, Zhang Weihao was still very relaxed, but Zhang Jiacong was a little tired, Chen Jin smiled and asked him to sit and rest for a while, he secretly worked hard, and quickly pulled up the net with Zhang Weihao.
The sun finally poked out half of its head, and the light also turned dark red into pure gold, which was extremely bright, and with this light, Chen Jin looked at the seafood that had fallen into the cabin, and listened to Zhang Jiacong tell him what they were all - shrimp crawlers, crabs, sea cats, these are the main fruits of fishing.
There are a few octopuses among them, but the most important thing is a super-large flying crab, I heard Zhang Jiacong say that this wild big guy can sell for about 100 Hong Kong dollars, and those fishmongers will compete for this good product as soon as they land.
Of course, there are still a lot of sea urchins and jellyfish, these are unwanted, Zhang Jiacong saw that Chen Jin did have a lot of strength, so he simply sat aside and picked out those who didn't want to throw them into the sea.
The cabin was already full of shrimp crawlers, sea cats, etc., and there were about ten more crabs after that, and there were many more varieties such as capped crabs, octopus, and so on.
It wasn't until Zhang Weihao couldn't stand it anymore and the sun rose to the height of about the sun that Zhang Jiacong drove the boat back, turned his head to look at Chen Jin, who was still relaxed, and smiled with emotion, "No wonder you've been floating on the sea for so long, your body is really iron." β
Chen Jin scratched his head and smiled innocently, "I also have such a lot of strengthγ»γ»γ»γ»γ»γ»." Zhang Weihao also eased up a little at this time, patted Chen Jin's shoulder, and pinched his arm, "Your arm is not as thick as mine, why do you have so much strength!" β
