Lu Yao followed the man's line of sight, and there was a fishing boat about 35 meters long and 8 meters wide docked on the wharf, which was the largest fishing boat on the entire wharf.

Lu Yao secretly speculated that such a fishing boat looks quite big, but in fact, it is still very small when it is put on the sea, and it should not be able to stop the level 8 gale this time.

This is because according to the "Donghai Provincial Regulations on the Administration of Fishery Safety Production": In case of winds above level 5, fishing boats and wooden sailing boats are not allowed to go to sea; in case of strong winds above level 6, fishing vessels below 60 horsepower are not allowed to go to sea; in case of strong winds above level 7, fishing vessels below 400 horsepower are not allowed to go to sea; and in case of strong winds above level 8, all fishing vessels are not allowed to go to sea.

However, what made Lu Yao feel relieved was that this was a fishing boat made of steel, not a wooden boat. This improves safety a lot, at least without worrying about the hull being disintegrated by the waves.

Lu Yao took a few steps forward, squeezed away those who were watching the excitement, and stepped forward to ask, "Excuse me, whose big ship is it?"

A man in the crowd just now replied, "It's Duan Haifeng, the richest man in the town, why are you looking for him? ”

Lu Yao frowned when he heard this, turned around and arched his hand at the man: "This old brother, do you know the phone number of this richest man in Duan? I want to talk to him about chartering a boat." ”

"Hiss......"

Someone gasped on the spot, they were not stupid, I had heard someone I knew just now introduce this young man as Miao Xingde's brother-in-law, at this time he wanted to rent a boat, needless to say, he also wanted to go to sea to save people.

At that time, someone gave Lu Yao a thumbs up and praised: "Young man, you have a kind of admiration and admiration! You still dare to go to sea in such bad weather, this courage is really the only time I have ever seen in my life." ”

Someone else persuaded beside him: "Young man, I know that you are eager to save people, but you have to think clearly, there is not much difference between going to sea at this time and sending you to death." Duan Shoufu's fishing boat looks very large, but in fact it is only 300 tons, and it is about to be thrown into the sea, and a big wave can overturn it. ”

"Yes, yes! Think twice, don't be impulsive. ”

......

Lu Yao listened to everyone's discussions, and he was also very helpless in his heart, but whenever he had a little opportunity, he would not go to sea so recklessly. But it's not impossible!

Lu Yao calmly looked at the middle-aged man who spoke first, only to see that he opened his mouth, but he didn't know what to say, and couldn't help but secretly hate himself for talking too much.

After all, it wasn't my own family that had an accident, and I couldn't understand the current mood of others. If he said that he went out, and the young man really went to sea and did not come back, wouldn't he have killed a human life? How could he be at ease for the rest of his life?

But if you don't say it, this is not to offend that young man, if it is really those ten people who are in distress waiting for others to save them, the evil they have created will be even greater.

"Alas," the middle-aged man sighed deeply, "That's it, life and death are fate. You decide what you want to do, and Boss Duan may not rent the boat to you. You memorize the phone number yourself, I'll just say it once......"

Saying that, the middle-aged man quickly reported a string of mobile phone numbers, and after Lu Yaomo wrote it down, he took out his mobile phone from his pocket and dialed it according to the mobile phone number reported by the middle-aged man just now.

The phone was quickly connected, and Lu Yao did not beat around the bush, directly reported his identity, and explained his intention straight to the point.

As soon as he heard that Lu Yao was going to hire a boat to go to sea, Duan Haifeng asked Lu Yao to wait for him for a few minutes, and he immediately rushed over from home.

Lu Yao left Longze Town since he was in high school, and later until he graduated from college, got married and had children, and he rarely came back, even if he occasionally returned to his hometown, he just went to the grave to worship his ancestors, or came back to visit relatives, and he didn't stay in Longze Town at all, so he didn't know much about the so-called Duan's richest man.

However, Duan Haifeng only heard that he was going to hire a boat to go to sea to save people, so he hurried over, which is enough to prove that he is a warm-hearted person who is worth befriending.

Sure enough, when many onlookers heard that Duan Haifeng was going to come over in person, they all said that he was righteous. Rent or not rent is another matter, at least others have a good attitude.

Some people talk about how difficult it was for Duan to get started, and today he has worked hard to come up, and he didn't get out of the way at all.

About seven or eight minutes later, two dim lights shot out from the rain in the distance, and a car drove towards the dock.

Lu Yao's consciousness instantly shrouded the past, and found that it was a BMW X5, Lu Yao expected that the person in the car should be Duan Haifeng, who is known as the richest man in Longze Town.

Chinese people, especially those in Donghai Province who have a little money, don't know why they prefer to buy BMWs, Mercedes-Benz and so on, not to mention Maserati, Porsche, Bentley, Rolls-Royce and the like.

It's not that those rich people can't afford to buy such luxury cars, it's just that they feel that the names of these luxury cars are not as colorful as BMW and Mercedes-Benz.

Duan Haifeng parked the car, walked down from the cab with a black steel umbrella, came to the dock, and shouted, "Which brother is Lu Yao?"

Lu Yao waved at him and said, "Boss Duan, I'm here." ”

Duan Haifeng was around forty, quite burly and tall, walked with a board and one eye, and had a strong military style, Lu Yao guessed that he might be a veteran.

Duan Haifeng stepped forward and shook Lu Yao's hand, and said with a smile: "It turns out that you are Brother Lu, it's really disrespectful." ”

Seeing that Duan Haifeng was so polite, Lu Yao also changed his tone and said affectionately: "Brother Duan, don't you know that your ship is going to sea?"

Duan Haifeng glanced at the sea outside the dock, the waves were undulating, the waves were monstrous, and they were menacing.

His face was calm, he pointed to the wind and waves outside, and asked solemnly: "Brother Lu, you don't need me to say more, you can see how bad the situation is, so you also insist on going to sea to save people?"

Without waiting for Lu Yao to answer, he continued: "Regardless of whether you can save people or not, I'm afraid it will be difficult for you to even go to sea, right? You said that I rented the boat to you in this case, it was not to help you, but to harm you." ”

Lu Yao stared at Duan Haifeng's eyes, did not flinch at all, and said in a deep voice: "Brother Duan, since I want to rent a boat with you, I am naturally mentally prepared. Just tell me to rent or not to rent, right?"

Duan Haifeng stomped his feet: "Alas, why can't you understand good words." ”

Lu Yao shook his head and said, "Brother Duan, you don't understand, it is my relatives who are in distress at sea now." Even if there is only a glimmer of hope, I will not give up trying to rescue them, no matter what danger I encounter, I don't care. ”

"Brother Duan, if you are afraid that your ship will encounter risks and losses, I can guarantee you that you will be compensated in full at that time. If you don't believe me, do you see the Grand Cherokee parked over there? It's my new car, and it's been driving for less than two days, and I can mortgage it. ”

"Phew, what do you mean by that? Are you a greedy person for money? I haven't seen a boat yet. It's just that now the wind and waves are so strong outside, I'm afraid you won't be able to find the helmsman to go to sea. Duan Haifeng said.

Lu Yao was unmoved: "That's okay, as long as you are willing to rent a boat for me, I will go to sea alone." ”
