Benny put down the phone in his hand, and walked towards the door of the bar with a smile, just now Benny called Bei Hai to tell him about the situation in Gloucester these days, and Bei Hai only said that he was bored after listening to it, and he didn't have any interest in this matter.

Pushing the door open, Benny stood in the doorway, turning his head around the bar.

The wine guests near the door felt that the door was pushed open, looked up and saw that it was Benny standing at the door, couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, and then the two tables directly closed their mouths, as more and more people found Benny's figure, the whole bar was like a small pebble thrown into the lake for a moment, the ripples of the sailor, with Benny as the center, the whole bar changed from hustle and bustle to a drop in more than ten seconds, and the needle could be heard.

Who doesn't know in the whole Gloucester that Benny of the Mustang started by Bei Hai, and the Mustang is now a part of Bei Hai, and when he saw Benny standing at the door and talking something behind his back, he was naturally a little weak-hearted, and he couldn't open his mouth at first glance.

"Benny, what are you doing here without Mustang counting money?" A white man in his fifties with a big hairy beard, who was a little drunk, staggered to his feet, turned his head and looked at the wine guests around him as he spoke, and continued: "Oh, I forgot, Hull's fleet is missing a boat, and there are not enough catches, hahahahaha."

"Hahaha!" Some of them laughed, and some of them raised their glasses to gesture at him.

Benny wasn't angry at all, and he didn't even see a trace of embarrassment on his face, but nodded and said, "Jerry, you're right, there's not much to gain right now, and Hull isn't doing it well." After catching for half a month, this is only 50,000 or 60,000 pounds, and there are not a few big ones, usually more than 30 pounds. Originally, I thought each one should be forty pounds. Ay! ”。

Benny's words immediately made the faces of the people in the bar look bad at once.

Soon one of them found an excuse for himself, sitting in a chair and loudly arguing: "Hull has a good ability to make money." However, the proportion of working under him is much less than that of others, if it weren't for Marlene, she would have come out and do it alone? You must know that they can be regarded as friends, and even his friends are not willing to work with him now, do you know how much failure he is now, and how great it is to make money? I look for this kind of person the most."

"Stan, you're right!" As soon as this man's words fell, someone immediately shouted hello.

Benny waited for the men to finish talking, snapped his fingers and said playfully, "I think your words are reasonable, old Huile." I asked him for a drink! ”。 The latter sentence was addressed to the barkeeper Whale.

"Benny, here!" As soon as Benny finished speaking, he heard someone call him, and he walked over with a smile on his face when he saw that it was Crick in the direction of the voice.

Sitting down at Crick's small wine table, Benny asked himself and Crick for a good German stout and asked, "How is your foot injury?" ”。

The reason why Crick did not go out to sea to fish for crabs this year was not because he broke his foot when he went to sea a month ago, and he is still recovering, if it weren't for Crick's temper, he would have gone to sea a long time ago.

"It's still the same, now I can only rely on crutches. The doctor repeatedly told me that I could not go to sea, hey, I could only squat here when I saw that everyone was busy at sea" After speaking, he raised his head and pointed around and continued: "Reduced to the point of drinking cheap beer with these bastard people, nonsense."

"Isn't your ship a good harvest? It's a break, little Jim's watch is quite amazing, and he has a good income as a captain for the first time. Eight thousand seven hundred pounds of crabs is very good," Benny said, persuading. Little Jim is Creek's eldest son, and the kid graduated from high school and didn't go to college. Thinking about playing everywhere all day, Crick had no choice but to take him out to sea. But as soon as he went to sea, this kid was a gratifying discovery for Crick. The son is very enthusiastic about fishing, and this year when Crick injured his leg, Jim volunteered to be the captain of the ship to Crick, and then the father and son made an agreement, that is, within half a month, to complete the catch of 4,000 pounds, the captain Jim can continue to be the captain, and now this harvest Crick is full of pride when he mentions it.

"I didn't expect this kid!" Once again, a smile appeared on Crick's face, and his son's achievements were always something that would make his father proud.

Benny watched the waiter come with the beer he wanted, took it and pushed a glass in front of Crick.

The waitress was not too young, and the middle-aged woman, who was a little blessed, said to Benny after delivering the wine, "Stan said why didn't he invite him to a dark beer!" ”。

Benny said disdainfully, "He's just worthy of a regular ale beer!" ”。

Crick laughed when he heard this.

The waiter smiled happily and walked away with his tray.

Taking a sip of beer, Benny said, "A group of people who have worked for a few days and made some money will go straight to the bar, and when they have no money, they will go out and find some work, and such people will only be worthy of the lowest wine!" ”。

Crick listened and nodded: "Who said it wasn't, I just sat here for a while and listened to some people chattering about how Hull is, no matter how Hull makes money in a year, they can't make it in their lifetime, they don't want to learn how others make money, they think about pie in the sky, they only grind their mouths all day long, do they all think that their Oprah?" There is a saying that people are not how good it is to find a job."

At this point, Crick turned to Benny and asked, "Why did you get to the bar today?" ”。

Benny has always rarely come to the bar, not to say that he doesn't go to the bar, but Benny has always been more picky about drinking, usually just drink a little in his own small bar, or drive to Boston to mix in some high-end bars, such as this country bar that is not Benny's food, some top alcohol such a small bar will not have, a year or two may not sell out of the owner will be idiotic to enter this kind of wine.

"I just heard from Lily that these people are so busy that they get drunk here every day, so I came over and felt the atmosphere," Benny said.

"Lily is home now? Didn't go out and break in? Crick asked.

Benny couldn't help but shake his head and sigh when he heard Creek mention his daughter: "She's not a worry-free person, forget it!" Let her go to the wild horse to go to work first, she doesn't just go around and there all day long, except for selling clothes and eating, there is nothing else to care about in the circle of friends." For his daughter Benny is very fond of, this childhood pampered is a little lazy to do, do work is not afraid of this suffering or that tired, Benny has no way to be his own daughter always look at the suffering and unbearable, so it has to be like this, so the rich raise the loser goods regardless of nationality and race.

After a few chats, the two talked about fishing, and now the main thing everyone can talk about is the emerging profession of crab fishing. It's not that Bei Hai is that everyone didn't expect this year's crab fishing shì to be so good, and now the market's expectations are higher than the production estimates that have been adjusted twice in a row at the beginning, although not every ship has a satisfactory harvest, but in general, the proportion of money is a little higher than that of other types.

"Hull had a good harvest, why did Marlene leave?" Crick Pingzhang is not a person who likes to inquire too much about other people's gossip, but now facing Benny, he naturally asked, because the news obtained by Benny's relationship with Hel and Marlene is much more reliable than these people in the bar, and the things in the bar are unreliable nine times out of ten, at least they are subjectively added, how much credibility is there.

Mentioning this, Benny shrugged his shoulders impatiently, and then said that the matter was so big.

Crick fell into thought as soon as he heard this, and waited for Benny to whisper before he opened his mouth to analyze: "Marlene's decision is a bit irrational, although the crew has ideas, but as a captain, your belief must be firm, you are the captain of the ship, not the president of the parliament, you must listen to others, and it is a fact that you lose money with such income, but it is risky to go to sea, and it is also risky to sell fish, the price that was sold the day before is not the price of tomorrow, who knows whether it will rise or fall?" It's too sloppy".

What Benny didn't tell Crick was that Marlene regretted it a little as soon as she arrived at the new fishing spot and thought about it for a while, feeling that she had been taken into a ditch by her own crew, but it was too late to say anything, so let's honestly find a place to lay a cage and catch crabs on my own.

"Everybody thinks differently," Benny had to say.

Crick saw that Benny didn't want to say anything more and asked, "Now let's see whose harvest is better, not Hull's, he's a pervert and no one else can compare, I knew it back in his first fishing season."

"Haha" Benny smiled and said, "Now Jed's Goddess is very good, more than 11,000 pounds of harvest, and the crab size is also very good, and there is Finch's Holiday number, of course, the two of them are a group." Then there's Billy, and he's about 10,000 pounds, and down there's the Bergman brothers' boat, and they're over 9,000 pounds, and the rest goes to Jim, and you know what people call him Little Hull."

I heard that someone called his son Little Hull, Crick was very happy, but as a father, he still had a little sense: "Forget it with Helby, as long as he has half of Hull's ability, then I can rest assured that he will always have income as long as the sea still produces fish."

The two chatted like this, and later it evolved into two people drinking wine while looking at the bar, these people analyzed the split incident of Bei Hai, of course, in addition to Bei Hai, there were some captains who were taken out and mentioned, and all the captains who were taken out had the same characteristics, that is, they could make money and some people were willing to follow, but these people obviously didn't see it, and a group of people with big tongues were inarticulate and counted the rich and unkind of these captains.

After two cups of belly, Benny has no interest in listening to these people's nonsense, and Benny thinks that staying with these people for a long time is not only his IQ declining, but even his own character is also declining. (To be continued......)
