The little fisherman next to him interjected, I don't think I want to, the fish on the boat are smelly.

You fucking shut up for me, okay young man, I've got you food, we're going to sea, it's too late for people to talk about us.

Hmph, I don't think you can leave.

What do you mean, the old fisherman looked at Wu in surprise.

At this time, two shrimps, one large and one small, suddenly appeared in the sea, jumped on the fishing boat, subdued them all, and tied them up one by one. Xiao Shrimp saw that there were so many delicious foods in the frame, and his appetite increased greatly, so he drank the chicken leg in one hand and the wine in the other.

The prawns took off their wet clothes, why did Brother Wu catch these fishermen.

Wu Jingya jumped into the boat, you will know in a moment, quick, take off their clothes.

Brother Wu, you're not going to let us rob these fishermen, are you? They don't have any money?

Wu Jingya smiled, he asked the little shrimp who was eating Haisai, do you know how to row?

Xiao Shrimp nodded, my brother and I both grew up by the sea, of course we will.

Wu pointed to the black dot not far away and drew it that way.

Xiao Shrimp's large body was well reflected when rowing, and Wu felt that he was not suitable to be a hooligan on the road, so he should row honestly. Hey, shrimp, why don't you brothers row well and go on the road to be hooligans?

Hahaha, I'm stupid, you better let my brother say it.

Xiao Shrimp looked at the big prawn, the big shrimp had changed into fishermen's clothes, lying in the cabin, with a straw hat on his face, he took off the straw hat and said deeply. Brother Wu, we fishermen are called the sea beggers, our ancestors have been born on the sea for generations, and the sea has grown. The sea is our country, and the ship is our home. The Qing Dynasty was overthrown, and it stands to reason that in the new society, the sea is no longer banned, and we can go further away to fish. But our days have not changed at all.

Not getting better? Why? You can go farther away to fish, and you should make more money.

If you want to go to sea, you have to have a boat, a ship doesn't come out of nowhere, you have to have money. The fishing company took advantage of the opportunity to lend me money to buy fishing gear and build fishing boats. The interest rate is scary, and many people can only do this for their livelihood. My family is like this, my father borrowed a sum of money back then and got my family's boat. What is the result, with this ship, life is more difficult than before.

It will only be a few years of suffering, and when the money is earned, the ship will not be yours.

Xiao Shrimp smiled, Brother Wu must have had a good life at home when he was a child, how do you know the pain of our fishermen.

The prawn said, "We have made a calculation, and by the time we have paid off the money borrowed by the fishing company, my father will have died long ago, and we will both be forty or fifty years old." At that time, I don't know how many boats I changed, and I was stripped a few times by those bastards in the fishing industry.

Then you should unite and fight the fishing business?

Troublesome with a fishing business? What's the trouble? The people in the fishing industry are all colluded with officials and businessmen, and the people in the yamen are their backstage. They have a monopoly on the fishing industry by the sea, and they made it clear to us when they lent me money to let us build ships. The seafood we bring back can only be sold at the fishing house, otherwise the interest on the repayment will be doubled.

Is this a monopoly of the fishing industry in the near future? If I'm not mistaken, the seafood you bring back, they say it's as much as it is.

Xiao Shrimp said admiringly, Brother Wu is so smart, you will know it when you hear it. My dad didn't expect them to do this trick back then, and he thought that the fishing company would be kind enough to help us distribute it. As a result, the fish bought back, the fishing company used various methods to smash the price, and there was a shortage of catties and two. They are very good at fishing. At the earliest, their 100 catties were 105 catties for us, and finally their 100 catties were 120 catties for us. If anyone dares to question and say that there is a problem, they will not say anything, and they will never want your fish again.

Well, if you don't want your fish, you can find a way out.

How to find a way, the prawn shook his head, our fishermen's insurance skills are too poor, and when we go to the sea to fish, we take some sea salt and smear it on the fish. It's okay to say in winter. If it's summer, it will become a stinky fish and rotten shrimp in a few days.

The most infuriating thing is that the sea is very windy and rough in winter, which is particularly prone to accidents, and most of our fish are caught in the summer. If we don't sell it to the fisherman, we will lose everything.

Then you can't find another buyer?

How to find a buyer, the shrimp smashed the oars hard. Where do we know those big buyers in the city, just a boatload of fish, people might as well go to the fishing shop to buy it?

You fishermen cannot unite to find sellers.

The prawn shook his head, and the prawn paddled, first, you rest, I'll row. If we dare to find a buyer on our own, the fishing company will go to the government to sue us for smuggling, and then give us an official document prohibiting us from going to sea, and all of us will have to ask for food. Moreover, most of our supplies before going to sea have to ask the fishing company to borrow money to buy them, and we owe money to the fishing company here, so we can only sell the fruits of our hard work.

Hey, Wu Jingya sighed. Hmph, keep borrowing, keep repaying money, never pay it back, always be a slave. If you really beat him, you lack great virtue and damage your eight generations.

We beggers of the sea suffer more than this, it turns out that we still have fishing villages on the shore. However, once the strong laborers of the family went to sea, the village became a place where gangsters were rampant. They took advantage of the absence of the men to rob, steal, and molest and rape women in the village. Later, the whole village did not dare to stay on land, so they all moved to the ship, and they all ate and drank on the ship. One by one, our ships were moored in a sheltered harbor and turned into makeshift maritime villages. As a result, the government did not let us stop in the harbor for nothing, and demanded that we be charged for the ship's space.

Wu heard these faint pain in his heart, people said that the sea is hope, the sea is free, how can in China, even such a sacred area as the sea has become hell.

Xiao Shrimp sat next to Wu Jingya and patted Wu Jingya's shoulder, he could bear the hardships in life, but he couldn't stand the hardships in his face. Others simply look down on us who beg the sea, and no matter how poor the people on the land are, they will not marry their daughters to us begging the sea. They also made up songs to scold us, it is really stupid to beg the people of the sea, and the sea is the master of the national ship. A family of five died three children at a time. I'd rather stay a widow for the rest of my life than marry a begging seaman.

Wu smiled helplessly, and couldn't rhyme. Then it will be a problem for you to marry a wife and have children, and your reproduction will be affected.

Xiao Shrimp nodded and said, No way, we can only intermarry between fishermen, they are all bloodlines on the sea, too close, the more intermarriage, the more relatives. Every household in our fishing village on the sea is a little bit close.

The shrimp looked at each other and smiled at the shrimp at this time, our grandfather was our grandmother's uncle.

Prawn answered, our mother was our father's cousin.
