The arrival of Old Boss Liu made Wan Dahai very happy, and he immediately welcomed the three of them into the hall. The old woman was also very happy to see that it was Liu Lao, who could almost be called his benefactor, of course, she was very polite, and hurriedly took tea and poured water.

"Brother Wan, sister-in-law, we haven't had dinner yet. I was on the road in the afternoon, and I was on the road for several hours. Liu Lao smiled and said.

"child, get food and wine, hurry up." Wan Dahai commanded. The old woman agreed again and again to go to the kitchen to light a fire and make vegetables.

Old Liu laughed at this time, and introduced Fang Zi'an and the apprentices who came with him to Wan Dahai. Wan Dahai saw that Fang Zi'an was dressed like ordinary people, and when he saw him leading the horse into the yard, he had some doubts in his heart. But it's not convenient to ask more, just politely salute.

After making a fuss for a while, Wan Dahai asked, "Brother Fuye, why are you here today?" I also said that I asked your godson to visit you in a few days, and your godson will go to sea to fish for more than ten days, and he will come back tomorrow. I'm still worried about what happened to you at home alone, and I'm still thinking about it. ”

Liu shook his head and laughed: "What can happen to me?" Are you afraid that I will die at home? Don't you see how well I'm doing now? I've lost all my crutches. ”

Only then did Wan Dahai realize that Liu did not have a cane on his head and was in good spirits, which was different from what he had learned before. The last time his youngest son came back and said that Liu's head and body were getting worse and worse, and it was difficult to walk without crutches. But where is the head of Liu in front of him a little sickly and weak.

"Oops, I didn't notice. How did your body suddenly get better? What's going on? Wan Dahai was surprised.

"Look at what you said, it seems like I shouldn't be getting better." The old man smacked his lips.

"I didn't mean that, I wish you were in good health." Wan Dahai was busy.

"Hahaha, just kidding. Speaking of which, my body has improved, and I have to thank Fang Gongzi. Fang Gongzi got a boat and asked me to repair it, I originally thought I couldn't do it, who knew that I was doing this work, and immediately my spirit was better, my legs and feet were better, and the amount of food was also large, and I was full of energy. I don't know what's going on, they say it's better and brighter, so my body is better. Anyway, I'm doing well now, and I feel like I can kill a cow with one punch. Hahaha. The old man laughed.

Wan Dahai laughed and said, "There is such a thing? If you are idle at home, you will get sick, and as soon as you work, you will not be sick, you are really a lifetime of hard work. ”

"Isn't it? I'm a, hahaha. Old Liu laughed and laughed.

Wan Dahai also laughed and said, "If you want to say that, I'm sore here and sore there, and I'm afraid I'll rest too." I used to run around on the boat every day, and I was half tired every day, but there was nothing wrong with my body. But now that I'm resting at home, my bones hurt every day, and I'm afraid that cheap bones won't be good if they don't work. ”

Liu Lao laughed and was about to speak, Wan Dahai's wife entered the house with a basin and said with a smile: "You two brothers and the two descendants are talking while drinking, and there is no good food and wine at home, so he will be a godfather." I'll go back tomorrow and prepare some food and drinks. ”

Liu Lao hurriedly said, "Old sister-in-law, I'm causing you trouble." ”

The old woman smiled and said, "When you say that, you will see the outside." Sit down and eat. Daddy, you can take out the wine in your cabinet and drink it, and you are allowed to drink it today. ”

Wan Dahai said with a smile: "I have obtained the holy decree, Brother Fuye, don't you know, now I won't let me drink the wine, I seem to be hungry every day." This woman was fierce. Now that I'm old, I can't do my job anymore, I'm a waste, and I'm not qualified to drink alcohol. ”

The woman laughed and scolded, "You old thing, chew your tongue and talk nonsense. It's not for your body's sake. He is a godfather, and you don't believe him. Dogs can't spit ivory out of their mouths. ”

Old Liu shook his head and laughed: "Isn't it? I don't know how to lift. I think someone is taking care of me and nagging me, but no one cares? My wife went early, Brother Wan, you don't know how to be blessed in the blessings. ”

Wan Dahai was just joking, laughing and getting up into the room, and after a while, he came out with a jar of wine. The wine and food are all on the table, and the fisherman's table is basically dominated by fish and shrimp, and the steamed and fried fish and shrimp are all tempting. At that moment, Wan Dahai poured wine for everyone, and everyone pushed the cup and drank it.

After three glasses of wine, Wan Dahai's face was red like Guan Gong, and he originally spoke loudly, but at this moment, he was even more like talking and thunder.

"I said, Brother Fuye, I'm afraid you're here today for something. Last time, the third son said, then please come, you don't want to come to me to walk around, why didn't you come here today. I'm afraid you have nothing to do but go to the Three Treasures Palace. Wan Dahai asked.

Liu Lao chewed a salted dried fish on his head, squeaked and swallowed it, and said with a smile: "Brother Wan, you know me, I never want to cause trouble to others." My godson is a piece of filial piety, and you and your sister-in-law are also good to me, of course I understand it in my heart. As soon as I came, you were busy serving, how can I get by in this heart? So, it's better not to bother. It's true that I'm here today because of something. ”

Wan Dahai laughed and said, "Look, I'll guess accurately." If there's anything, just say it. ”

Liu Lao turned his head and said, "Brother Wan, I have recently started repairing ships again." It is this Fang Gongzi's ship. This Fang Gongzi is a benevolent and righteous person, although he is young, he also has some ambitions and wants to do something. I was so impressed by his determination that I helped him repair the ship. He was going to go to sea to do overseas business in Fanguo, but he didn't know much about this aspect of things. Especially when he was going to sea, he didn't even have a boatman at hand. He heard your name and said he was coming to ask you to come out of the mountain. I told him that he was wishful thinking. You're out of the sea anymore, you're old, and you can't stand the waves. He didn't ask me to bring him here, so I came. ”

Wan Dahai turned his head to look at Fang Zi'an in surprise. Fang Zi'an stood up and held the wine glass and said respectfully: "What Old Boss Liu said is very true, the younger generation is the name of the old man who has heard people recommend you, saying that you were the first dragon head to sail in Lin'an Mansion. The younger generation thinks that I can invite you out of the mountain. It is very presumptuous for the younger generation to know about this, but the younger generation hopes that you can be like the old leader, the old man and give full play to the residual heat. Such a good skill can't be wasted. The juniors took the liberty to come, I'm really sorry, I would like to give you a cup, and I hope you don't blame the juniors for being abrupt. ”

Wan Dahai looked at Fang Zi'an with a strange gaze and said, "This son, you speak in a screpe, I'm afraid it's not a businessman." I know all the owners of the Lin'an City Boat Company, but I don't seem to have seen you. ”

Fang Zi'an said with a smile: "I am a novice in the next, and I am indeed not a businessman in Lin'an City, and I am a new person who plans to do this business, so I don't know anything." ”

Wan Dahai smiled, shook his head and said: "This son, it's not me who sells the old, since you don't know anything about this sea trade, I advise you not to wade into this troubled water." Don't blush at the interests inside. What's wrong with two pieces of silver? If you want to do business, open a restaurant or a teahouse, and make money properly, why do you want to do this business? Or study hard and take the imperial examination to become an official, that is the right way to do it. It's not something you're supposed to do. ”

Fang Zi'an said with a smile: "Everything is done by people, and others are not born to buy and sell this business overseas." Restaurants and teahouses are of course less risky, but I don't like that kind of business, I like to make a lot of money, I like high-risk and high-return business, I don't like comfort, I like challenges. As for reading? The younger generation is also studying, and the younger generation is the twelfth place in the autumn examination of this subject. Reading is not in conflict with doing business. ”

"Hey, you're actually Xie Yuangong? You haven't told me about it. Liu Lao shouted with his head. In the eyes of the common people, everyone who is in the examination is Xie Yuangong, and it does not specifically refer to the first place.

Wan Dahai was also a little surprised, and said with a smile: "That's disrespectful, it turned out to be a Duke Xie Yuan." Terrific. ”

Fang Zi'an smiled and just wanted to be humble, but heard Wan Dahai say again: "In this case, you should study hard, how can you do this business?" Besides, I have no plans to go out of the mountains. I haven't been out to sea for several years, and I've long since washed my hands and stopped doing this business. Look at me, with old arms and legs, I can't stand the wind and waves of the sea. I'm afraid I'm going to disappoint my godson. You can be smarter. ”

When Fang Zi'an heard this, his heart was half cold. Turned his head to look at Old Boss Liu. Liu Lao looked at him and said as if nothing happened: "Drinking and drinking, why don't you just talk and drink?" Drink! ”

Several people drank a glass of wine together. Liu Lao liked the salted dried fish, chewed two more, and then smiled: "Brother Wan." How many years have you been at sea? ”

Wan Dahai said: "I went out to sea to fish with my father when I was seven years old, and I am seventy-three this year, how many years do you say?" It's been more than sixty years. ”

Liu Lao nodded his head and said: "It's really tight, looking at the entire Lin'an Mansion, I'm afraid that no one has the long years you have been at sea." ”

Wan Dahai said: "That's not necessarily, we people who grew up by the sea, which one didn't float on the sea at a few years old, I don't dare to say that I am the longest." But no one has sailed more than I have, I dare say. Since I was sixteen, I have been on my way to or from Fanguo for seven months a year. I remember the first time I went to sea, and that was when I was in the reign of Emperor Renzong of the Great Song Dynasty. After so many years, Bianliang has been occupied by the Jin, and the official family has come to our Hangzhou from the north. ”

Liu Lao smiled and said, "Isn't it?" A lifetime has passed in the blink of an eye. Brother Wan, have you ever had any regrets about driving a boat in your life? I mean, it's not anything else about what you're doing. ”

Wan Dahai was stunned for a moment, frowned, and said, "Regret?" Think about it. ”
