Fang Jing and Lu Jing stayed in a guest house, then ate some food, and went back to the house to sleep.

Fang Jing, who was lying on the bed, fell asleep not long after, even if Lu Jing knocked on Fang Jing's door, he didn't hear it.

After waking up one night, it was another sunny day, there was no snow, except for some wind, it was a good day, for such weather, if you really want to go to sea, you can go, but I don't know if anyone is willing to go to sea.

In this era, although there is no such thing as a sea ban, for the general public, they basically will not choose such a day to go to sea, not to mention the cold, and have to suffer from the drifting on the sea, unless it is a big price of the owner, the husband is likely to be willing to go to sea.

After Fang Jing and the others settled the money for the guest house, they left the horses in the guest house, and only needed to pay some copper coins every day.

The two of them found a restaurant at random, had some breakfast, and walked to the mouth of Haizhou City, but when they came to the beach, they found that there were not many boats.

"Lu Jing, there are no ships here, and there are not many people, the last time you came here, was that the case?" Fang Jing looked at the boats on the beach, not knowing if it was a seasonal problem or a human reason, so he opened his mouth and asked Lu Jing.

"Fang Jing, the last time I came here, there were a lot of boats, maybe it's not the fishing season." Lu Jing looked around and had to come up with such an answer.

"Let's go, let's go ask somebody and see if anyone is willing to rent us a boat." Fang Jing had no choice but to call Lu Jing to some sheds not far away, wanting to ask about the situation.

Lu Jing followed, for the boat, she didn't have a good way, besides, at this time, there were not a few people on the coast, some were just some children picking up seafood, and a few adults, it is estimated that they are not specialized in fishing, because the clothes are different, and they are a little shabby.

"Uncle, may I ask, is there a boatman around here who is willing to rent a boat? We would like to rent a boat and go to the sea. After walking for a while, I came to the shed and saw an old man sitting on the edge of the shed, basking in the sun, looking a little old, Fang Jing estimated that he was only about fifty or sixty years old.

"Chartering a boat? There are no boats to rent here, if you want to rent a boat, you can only go a few miles, there are many people who are willing to rent boats, there are some poor people here, where are there any big boats, some are just a small boat. The old man looked at Fang Jing's dress, and he didn't look like a poor family, so he had to instruct Fang Jing and them to ask in the distance.

"Thank you, sir." After Fang Jing clasped his hands and saluted, he took Lu Jing and walked in the direction pointed by the old man, as for whether he could rent a boat over there, then I don't know, but I think that the old man should not deceive people, the general poor family, who will be idle and bored, make up an excuse to deceive a foreigner, besides, they will not do this, unless it is a threat to their own family.

After walking for two quarters of an hour, Fang Jing and the others came to a larger shed area, where at least a lot of people lived, and from the style and size of the shed, it was estimated that there were at least one or two thousand people living here.

"Lu Jing, are you waiting for me here, or are you going to follow me over there to ask about the situation?" Fang Jing looked back at Lu Jing, and then asked what she meant.

"Fang Jing, let's go together." Lu Jing knew what Fang Jing meant, there were many people, and a girl's family ran around with a big man, which would always make other people's eyes not very good.

"Okay, let's go over and have a look." After Fang Jing heard the answer, he lifted his legs and walked towards the shed area.

After a while, they came to the door of a family's house, and at the door, there were many fishing nets hung and a lot of fish were dried.

"This big brother, may I ask, who is willing to rent a boat here? The two of us wanted to rent a boat. Fang Jing looked at a man who was mending the fishing net and asked.

"Two guest officers, my family is a fish boat, I just don't know how big the two of you want to rent, if it's a big boat, my family doesn't have it, there are ordinary boats, but ......" The man heard the question from the side, and hurriedly turned his head, and saw Fang Jing and the two, who didn't look like a bad person, and then replied to Fang Jing, but they were a little vigilant.

"This big brother, it's okay to have a small boat, but it must be able to live in people, we have to rent it for a long time, so we must have to live in people, and we must have a place to cook, otherwise, we can only ask other families." Fang Jing didn't have any thoughts about this man, they were all fishermen begging for a living by the sea, and whoever saw him would maintain some vigilance.

"Two guest officers, please come with me to have a look, although my fishing boat is not big, but the requirements you said just now can still be done." The man listened to Fang Jing's words, and directly got up and took Fang Jing and the others towards a bow boat not far from the sea.

"Well, this boat is okay, I don't know how much it costs?" Fang Jing and the two of them followed the man to the fishing boat, watched it, and didn't think there was any problem, so they asked the price.

"Two customers, if you rent a boat, if you count people, it will cost you fifty yuan a day, if you don't count people, you will have to pay a deposit, otherwise you will damage my ship, and I will lose a lot." After listening to what Fang Jing said, the man was also happy in his heart, in this winter, he couldn't catch any fish, if he really rented out this fish boat, he would definitely be able to make some money.

"This big brother, how much does this deposit cost?" After hearing this, Fang Jing also agreed, if there is no deposit, then it is really going to abduct other people's boats, where can people find reason.

"The price of my boat is twenty-seven yuan, and it has only been used for three or four years, and I have rearranged some things later, so this deposit costs thirty yuan, and in addition, the rental money needs to be calculated together, limited to one month, and the number of days of use is as many days." The man opened his mouth and answered Fang Jing, and then said the price of his boat.

"Okay, I don't have much copper money, can I make gold cakes?" Fang Jing really didn't have a few copper coins, and he had left dozens of gold cakes in his baggage.

"Yes, yes, guest officer, please come with me, we have to go to the village elders to write a receipt." That man must be happy when he heard Fang Jing say that he used gold cakes as a deposit, although he had rarely seen them, if he really received gold cakes, it would be a big deal, even if Fang Jing made his boat useless, it didn't matter, and the gold cakes on the market were worth much more than copper coins, and the exchange ratio had been rising.

Afterwards, the man took Fang Jing and the others to a hut, typed the receipt, drew the charge, pressed the handprint, and returned to the side of the man's boat.

"This big brother, these are seven golden cakes, but you also know the current price of gold cakes for copper coins just now, and the rest will be placed here for you first, because we don't know how long it will take, so now we still need big brother you to help us prepare some ingredients, otherwise in this sea, we will have nothing to eat." Fang Jing took seven golden cakes to the man, and asked him to help buy some ingredients and come back by the way.

"Okay, guest officer, I'm going to call my mother-in-law to go and buy some ingredients for you to come back." The man took the golden cake handed to him by Fang Jing, responded happily, listened to Fang Jing say the name of the ingredients and the weight, and then turned around and walked towards his own shed.

And Fang Jing and Lu Jing stayed on the spot and began to clean the boat, after all, it was someone else's fish boat, it couldn't be so clean, and the smell of fish was very strong, this was something Fang Jing couldn't stand it, so he could only clean it first, and by the way, wait for the man to buy things back.

The boat is not big, it is not small, at least seven or eight meters long, and the width is nearly two meters wide, the two ends of the ship are empty, and a rectangular wooden frame is erected in the middle of the ship, with windows and doors, and there are three partitions inside. One is for sleeping, one is for storing things, and the other is also for living, but this man's boat seems to be used to carry seafood.

It took nearly an hour for Fang Jing and the others to clean up, and at the same time clean the boat, fortunately, there was some sun, otherwise, it would not be easy to do.

After cleaning, Fang Jing began to walk along the beach, picking up some shells, as long as they were slightly better-looking, he would pick up some, in fact, he thought about whether he could take them home and play with them with Xiao Linghua.

When she was at home, Fang Jing would have a headache for her little sister, but after she came out, she was especially worried about her little sister and everyone in the family.

Lu Jing also followed behind Fang Jing, holding a long sword in her hand and carrying a burden on her back, while Fang Jing was just carrying a burden, the two of them looked like a ranger walking outside, although Fang Jing was not wearing such gorgeous clothes, but it looked like it.

Two hours later, the man and his lady came back, followed by two ox carts, which were pulling the things Fang Jing needed.

"Guest, guest, everything has been bought, please come and receive it." The man shouted loudly to Fang Jing, who was still walking on the beach, and the lady who followed him was very envious of Lu Jing's dress.

"Okay, here we go." After Fang Jing heard the man's shout, he turned around and walked towards the boat, with Lu Jing following closely behind.

"Guest officer, everything has been bought, you check first, if there is any mistake, if it is less, we will buy some back." After the man saw Fang Jing and them coming back, he said cautiously to Fang Jing.

"It's okay, I'll get these things on the boat first." Fang Jing looked at it, most of the things were there, as for the ones pressed under the frame, he could only know if they were enough after moving the things.

Fang Jing and the others began to move things to the boat, and the man and his wife and the coachman also helped.

There are actually a lot of things, rice and noodles must be indispensable to eat, and meat and vegetables are indispensable, but Fang Jing also bought a lot of soybeans and mung beans, in order to be able to eat green vegetables at sea, and take Lu Jing with him, but he can't just ask the dumb man for something.

The bedding or something is even more indispensable, as for other things, they are just some tools for extracting fresh water, firewood is currently the most, on this ship, I don't know how much time to lose, eating is the biggest thing, as for safety, Fang Jing will not think about these.

"Big brother, thank you, everything is almost ready, there should be nothing missing, we can set off in a while." Fang Jing looked at the things in the boat, and felt that there should be no less.

"Guest officer, thank you for renting my family's boat, the money I bought just now cost nearly a gold cake, look at this ......" The man handed over the other two extra gold cakes and copper coins, after all, this is Fang Jing's money, and you can't be greedy for ink casually.

"The copper money is given to you, just give me the gold cake, and you can pay for the car." Fang Jing took the golden cake, looking at the copper coin at least the same amount of money, Fang Jing was also rare to be generous.
