Chapter 283: Recruitment
It took a lot of effort, Wu Guangcai, with the help of Wu Ying, to carry more than 100 catties of fish onto the fishing boat, and after putting down the ground cage, Wu Guang had to make some more effort to pull Wu Ying up, after all, lifting a hundred catties of heavy objects in the sea, even if there is the blessing of seawater buoyancy, the effort consumed is still not small.
After all, Wu Guang is fifty or sixty years old, and after doing all this, the whole person is tired, and he and Wu Ying sit on the board of the boat, panting.
"Up, there are two more buoys. Wu Ying held on to the plank, climbed up, and said to Wu Guang, who was sitting next to him.
"Hmm..." Wu Guangma got up, didn't say he was tired, and ran straight to the rocking oar, in the face of the harvest, it was nothing to be tired.
After nearly two hours of busy work, the four boats found all the buoys one after another, and fished up the ground cages one by one, although the harvest was uneven, but overall, it can be said to be a bumper harvest.
By the time the four boats had come together again and begun their return voyage, the sun had slowly set in the west.
"Uncle, do you see if we are looking for more people, two people in each boat feel a little difficult, and three people are just right. On the other boat, while cleaning the ground cage and sorting the prey, Wu Xiong suggested to Wu Ying, who was doing the same thing next door, "Moreover, you see that my father is also old and can't do such heavy work." ”
"Stinky boy, you mean you're old, right?" Before Wu Ying could speak, Wu Guang couldn't stand it anymore and scolded at the top of his throat.
"Kukuku..." Seeing Wu Xiong deflated, the others couldn't help but laugh.
Wu Xiong was also helpless, his own Lao Tzu did not accept the old man, he could only admit it, shrunk his neck and said: "Dad, I didn't mean that... I mean, young people can't stand this tiredness either. ”
"Ahh Wu Guang had an expression of 'the family is unfortunate and a loser' expression, and said, "You have forgotten the days when you couldn't eat rice once a month! You are a loser, will you live! You don't need money to find someone? You don't know how expensive labor is now! The money is used to recruit people, how can you marry a daughter-in-law?"
Wu Xiong had a black line, and the few helpers who heard this were also full of embarrassment, Wu Guang may just be open-mouthed and have no other meaning, but when they heard these words, there was always a feeling of being accused of scolding Huai.
It's hard for others to say anything, but the big boss Wu Ying has a high seniority, so he doesn't have to worry about Wu Guang's feelings, and says with a dark face: "What are you talking nonsense? People work hard, we buy strength, it's a matter of course, where is there no shortage of people now? People are willing to come to help us, it's all about our face, we must know gratitude!"
Wu Ying's reprimand, Wu Guang naturally didn't dare to refute, but from his face, it can be seen that this guy didn't realize that he had said the wrong thing, but he simply didn't dare to violate the rules.
However, Wu Ying didn't care, as long as Wu Guang listened to him, it didn't matter if he understood it or not, so he didn't continue to worry about Wu Guang, but turned his face to Wu Xiong and said, "What you said is right... That's it, it's not a trivial matter, when I go back, I'll sell the fish first, discuss it with your brother, and see if there's anything else to add. ”
After all, Wu Ying is younger than Wu Guang and is relatively open-minded, but perhaps because of his high seniority, he usually subconsciously ignores his identity as a young man, and is more conservative than ordinary young people, and his personality and concepts are somewhat contradictory.
Although Wu Xiong was not convinced, he would never say it stupidly to his face, but his heart was getting heavier and heavier to do something. This is not only the psychology of competing with his brother, but also the influence of the current relaxed environment and social atmosphere in China, young people are much more independent than their peers in ancient China, and their dependence on the family is much smaller, and they have their own ideas.
"Just what are you going to do?" Wu Xiong was confused for a while, young people are always not lacking in enthusiasm and passion, but few can find the right goal.
The place where the Wu family's fishing boat went out to fish was not far from the coast, more than ten miles away, and it took two hours to return to Qihuan Town before dark, and the four fishing boats docked at a small dock specially prepared for fishermen.
The Wu family was originally in Xin'an Town, since the establishment of Qihuan Town, because of Qihuan Town's proximity to the sea, Wu Ying moved over with his family, and became the first batch of residents of Qihuan Town, with a set of real estate in the town, but the place where they often live is not settled in Qihuan Town, but by the small wharf outside the town, about three or four miles away from the town.
From this point of view, it seems that the Wu family is quite wide, there are two houses, in fact, the current housing prices in Huaxia are not expensive, and they belong to the stage of less people and more land, the houses in the town may still be worth some money, and the houses outside the town only need to calculate the cost of materials and labor, and the land is more, if you are not afraid of danger, you can even circle a piece of land away from the town, and no one cares about you when you see a palace.
Most of the people who live by the small wharf are the same as the Wu family, most of them make a living from fishing, so the settlement they spontaneously formed is a small fishing village, but although there is an administrative unit at the village level in official writing, in fact, there is no real natural village in the whole of China, and this small fishing village is the same, so the people who live here are still the townspeople directly under the jurisdiction of the Qihuan Town Government, not the villagers.
The most obvious sign is that there are no village cadres here.
In addition to the four small boats of the Wu family, there were already seven or eight boats that had returned earlier on the wharf, and then more than a dozen fishing boats had returned one after another, all of whom had gone out to fish in this fishing village.
Of course, except for the Wu family, most of these people have a boat, and most of them are rented boats from the First Shipyard, which is not comparable to the Wu family.
"Hey, Lao Wu, I have a good harvest today, it looks like I have to have a thousand catties in total... There are also a few big yellow croakers and groupers. Stopped on a boat next to Wu Ying, his neighbor Haijingchao was the same as in the past, and while he was busy working, he talked to Wu Ying as usual.
"Lao Hai, can you not repeat it every day?" Wu Ying scolded with a smile, "Is it interesting to start with this sentence every day?"
"Our fishermen, don't talk about the catch?" Haijingchao glanced up at Wu Ying, and then continued to tinker with his own fishing nets.
"Okay, okay, you're reasonable!" Wu Ying didn't bother to compete with him, and said: "Lao Hai, I said that you should also hire a buddy, you can do it alone all day until midnight, and you have to rush early tomorrow, if you do this, your body will collapse sooner or later." ”
