The exclamations of the boatmen were heard.

Ye Yaodong was holding the rice bowl in his hand, and he was also shocked to pinch the edge of the rice bowl, he didn't care about biting the rice in his mouth, he swallowed it directly, his neck was choked and pulled, one hand stuck on his neck, and he finally swallowed it.

"Grass! I don't know if the two boats will die when they collide, Lao Tzu was almost choked to death! ”

"Boom, I don't know what happened when we bumped into each other?"

"Okay, why did it suddenly stop, and the other one is really, didn't you watch from the cockpit? The light on this big night is not good, and it is too scary. ”

"It didn't take long for it to get dark......

Father Ye also noticed the movement not far away, and also walked out of the cockpit and shouted loudly.

"What's going on? How did the two boats collide? ”

Ye Yaodong took a sip of water before saying, "I don't know, we were eating and chatting, and said that it was rare to see two boats tonight, who knew that they collided directly?" ”

The boatman added, "No, it was one boat that suddenly stopped first, and the other boat changed direction in time before it collided directly." ”

Another human: "What to do? Are we going to get up the net and drive over to take a look. ”

Father Ye said: "I'll connect with Lao Pei to take a look first, and if you want to go over, you can go over together." ”

Ye Yaodong said: "Okay, then you connect first, and by the way, put the net up first, anyway, you have to go over and take a look." ”

"I don't know if I will break the ......"

"There must be something wrong, so fast and directly hit it, the people are fine, the boat must be fine, now it is stuck there and does not move, it is estimated that they have connected to call for help, right?"

"There is a good chance ......"

Everyone was holding a rice bowl, holding chopsticks and pointing at the sea in front of them, and they didn't care about eating.

"Let's go to the Internet café first, don't patronize it, eat quickly when you should eat, anyway, you use your mouth, not your eyes."

"Then eat first, eat and eat, close the net, and then go over and take a look at it later."

"Hey, why should I ...... first?"

Everyone listened to Ye Yaodong's words and responded positively, but their attention was always on the fishing boat in the distance.

But when it got dark, I could only see the faint orange light on the boat, far away from the sea, and I couldn't see the current state of the fishing boat at all, only two points of light swayed and fluttered twice from time to time.

The Dongsheng slowly drove towards the two ships that collided, raising its net as it went, and the Harvest followed behind.

After Ye Yaodong finished eating, he watched the others close the net, and went up to the cockpit without him having anything to do, and asked his father.

"Uncle Pei also followed, in the back."

"Well, I told him when I was connected just now, and we went over to see what was going on while closing the net, and the boat over there had just sent out a distress signal."

"Let's also be careful, don't get too close first, as long as the ship does not sink, there should be no casualties, it has only been a long time, the lights on it are still shaking, maybe it has hit the rock."

"I think the same way, otherwise how could I suddenly stop and cause another boat to collide directly without warning."

"Today is just the fifteenth, this time point happens to be a big low tide, the tide has receded to the lowest, maybe the water level has decreased, some reefs on the bottom of the sea have also risen, it may be easier to hit the reef?"

Father Ye looked at the front intently and shook his head, "It's hard to say, let's go over and take a look first." ”

Ye Yaodong didn't say anything, walked out of the cockpit, stood on the helm tower and stared straight ahead.

The nets on the deck were slowly retracting, and as he got closer, he noticed that the fishing boats in front of him were a little crooked, one slanting to the southeast.

The other fishing boat that collided with it, the whole bow of the boat has been cocked, stacked on the inclined fishing boat, showing a state of "stacking arhats", also tilting to the west.

The two boats are a bit like they are at right angles, and the situation is not very good, and they are both tilted.

"Grass, both are tilted, doesn't this speed up the shipwreck? When a big wave hits, maybe both of them have to turn over together, no wonder they are all stuck in place, motionless, and none of them can be moved. ”

Presumably, the angle of inclination will become smaller and smaller over time, until the water fills the deck and the fishing boat will sink directly, and that will be the end of it.

He could barely see a little from the bottom of the rudder by the faint light, and the boatmen below also saw the shape of the two boats as the fishing boat approached, and began to discuss.

During this period of sailing, the Harvest probably also collected its fishing nets, and the two boats now appeared to be side by side, and probably the people on board also saw it.

He took a look around and went into the cockpit to talk to his father.

Father Ye was surprised, "It's all stacked on top of each other?" It's all tilted together, so if you don't come to rescue in time, you can't sink together? ”

"Did you contact the Maritime Administration? Where are we here? ”

"It's about around the city, right? They all sent out distress signals, so I didn't get in touch. ”

"Let's also help ask for help, who knows what caused the collision, since we saw it, we will also help contact it."

"Okay, okay, I'll send a distress signal right away."

The two boats got closer and closer, and after getting close to the accident, they slowed down, keeping a distance of about twenty or thirty meters and floating around, and Ye Yaodong also asked people to wave flags to remind their fishing boats to come close.

The two accident boats had long noticed that there were still two of them working on the sea, and they were relieved to see them approaching.

"Ahh It's yesterday's harvesting boat! ”

"Huh? Is it really yesterday's fresh harvesting boat...... Ran into it again? ”

"It may be a ...... to return to Hong Kong"

"That's not going to drive so fast, is it?"

"Of course, it's a little faster, the wholesale market is open at night, and it's just early in the morning, but it's not okay if it's late......"

Ye Yaodong also saw that the one stacked on top of the Arhat was a fresh harvesting boat, the bow of the fishing boat was resting on the other boat, the stern was floating on the sea, the hull was tilted, and it was thrilling.

The fishing boat that was pressed down below was tilted even more, and that one seemed to be a transport ship, with a lot of cargo on board, because of the tilt, boxes of goods had been scattered everywhere, and some of them might have fallen into the sea.

As soon as their boat approached, the people on the harvest boat immediately shouted and waved, "Here~Here~"

Father Ye also sailed the boat to the stern, intending to pick up the people on the boat first, while the harvest sailed to the other boat, and the people who were about to pick up the other boat were rescued separately.

It's just that when they were about to pick up the people on the ship first, the other party refused again.

"This ship and its cargo weigh down most of our bodies, and we can't leave it yet, we have to watch from the ship, watching the changes in the hull at any time. I'm tired of waiting on the side, helping out when you need it, and if there is an accident, you can take us on board, okay? Then there will be great thanks. ”

Ye Yaodong can also understand their feelings, this fresh harvest ship is full of goods, and they are probably preparing to rush back, dock at night, and then send the goods to the wholesale market.

Dozens of tons of goods, but also tens of thousands of yuan, they receive the goods are paid in cash, the sea receipt is not in arrears, it is indeed pressed by most of the net worth, if this ship has a case, there is really no place to cry.

After Father Ye pulled the boat over, he also went down to the deck, and when he heard this, he hurriedly and politely mixed local dialect in broken Mandarin: "It should be, it should be, at sea, it is called the sky should not be, and the earth is not spiritual, when it is time to help, you must take a hand when you encounter it." ”

Ye Yaodong nodded and said, "Okay, then we'll wait on the side, wait for the rescue boat to come over, and see if there is anything that can help." ”

The faces of the other party were full of gratitude.

"Thank you, the luck at night is really bad, fortunately there are two boats nearby, which can be regarded as a blessing in misfortune, at least there is a real case, the money is gone, and there is still life." The other party laughed at himself.

Indeed, the vast sea is boundless, even if you know how to swim, how long can you swim? Who knows when the rescue ship will come?

In case the fishing boat really sinks little by little, before waiting for the rescuers, they can only soak in the water and wait, if they swim elsewhere and deviate from the rescue coordinates issued at the beginning, where to find people?

"Wait and see, if the rescue is timely, it may be saved."

"Hopefully."

Ye Yaodong said suspiciously: "We were having dinner at that time, and we happened to see your two boats appear on the edge of the horizon, and we were still surprised there, but I could still see other fishing boats tonight, but I didn't expect you to suddenly collide?" ”

"We set the sailing route, and we were just eating, and we didn't know that it would conflict with the ship's route, and it was too late to react."

The person on the side then added, "I just scolded each other, I understand, there is a reef underneath, and it happened to hit the thigh tide, so it hit the reef." If it weren't for this boat, we would probably have run aground. ”

"I don't know if it's fortunate or unfortunate, our boat is stacked on top of it, although it is said to be tilted, but there is a cushion underneath, and the rescue is timely, and the boat may be saved if it goes backwards."

"Maybe the other party sinks directly, our inclination angle is not so big, if the waves don't keep hitting, they may fall directly on the water, so we can save it."

Dead friends don't die poor, and their ideas are not wrong.

Anyway, there was a cushion underneath, and if it sank, their ship was now tilted at forty-five degrees, but when it sank, they would naturally fall on the water.

Presumably, everyone on this boat was hoping that the boat would sink quickly so that their boat would fall smoothly on the water.

"There is really no way to do this reef, the vast sea, and it is not my own back garden, how can I be familiar with it everywhere, and there is no way to predict an accident."

"Having said that, we were also distracted, thinking that it would not be long before we landed, and if we kept guarding, we would be able to turn around in time and not collide directly like this."

Ye Yaodong nodded, there are unpredictable circumstances in the sky, people have good and bad luck, the world is impermanent, nothing can be expected all the time.

"That's okay, then you can watch from the boat first, and by the way, think about countermeasures, if you can't wait for the rescue boat, you see how to save yourself, our boat will retreat first, and wait on the side first."

"Okay, okay, trouble......"

"Thank you for your hard work, thank ......"

In a polite thank you from the other party, he returned to the cockpit first, withdrew the ship, and kept a distance.

And the Harvest was also attached to another ship, and was also talking there, and probably the same situation was in the same situation, but the unfortunate one hit the reef first as a cushion.

However, Ye Yaodong saw that they were quite prepared, they had already put on life jackets, and he didn't have any life jackets on the boat, but he didn't expect the other party to have life jackets, which was quite thoughtful.

And the Harvest was like them, and it wanted to pick people up on the ship and returned empty-handed.

At this time, he was slowly approaching him, and the two boats were next to each other, anchored at sea.

Pei's father also came to the deck and talked to them.

"The boat said that the captain took a nap and hit the reef directly, and then wanted to pick them up, but they all shook their heads, saying that they were going to take a look at the situation on the ship first, anyway, our ships are parked nearby, in case there is any accident, they are not afraid, at least stay on the ship, they can still have a resilience."

"Yes, with us, there is no problem with personal safety, and now it is a property problem for them, and this ship is estimated to carry most of their net worth. The one that hit the reef is a cargo ship, right? Ye Yaodong asked curiously.

"Yes, it looks like a cargo ship, the goods on the deck are piled high, the boxes at the bottom are stacked well, the top ones are all in a mess because they hit the rocks, the stacked goods are scattered everywhere, the ship is now in a mess, and even the place to put down seems to be almost gone."

"They didn't dare to move, for fear of making the boat tilt harder, so they could only stay at the stern and wait for rescue, hoping that the waves would be smaller and the boat would tilt more slowly."

"It seems that the fallen box has hit someone, and I saw that two or three people were bleeding from their heads, but they just took a piece of cloth and sat there with their foreheads covered."

Father Ye also asked out loud: "Where can anyone hear it?" ”

"I don't know where the accent is, and it's hard to communicate anyway. It doesn't matter where they are, let's just watch it here first, if there are those who want to help, if there is no help, just wait for them to get out of danger and get a red envelope. ”

"I don't know how many hours it will take...... We can only wait here dryly......" Ye Yaodong lit a cigarette, idle and bored, and smoked while waiting.

"Wait, the others can go to rest first, anyway, the net of goods just collected is about a thousand catties, and it didn't take long, just leave two people to sort it."

Pei's father also said: "We still put it down and put it away, I also have to go to sleep for a while, while the boat is parked there at this time, there is no sound of the machine, it is rare to be quiet, it should be a good sleep." ”

"When the rescuers come, let other people call me again, I really can't be tired of driving the boat, and I will hit the reef when I see people taking a nap, which is unlucky enough."

After saying that, he arranged for the shipwrights to return to the cabin to rest, and left one person to guard, anyway, they didn't have much to sort.

Father Ye also asked Ye Yaodong, "Do you want to go to sleep first?" It is also true that it is rare to be quiet at this time, and there is no sound of machinery. ”

"No, I just woke up at noon, you go to eat first, you don't have time to eat just now."

"Uh-huh, okay......"

Father Ye also took the opportunity to go to eat first, anyway, now that the ship is parked here, it's okay to wait.

Ye Yaodong took two puffs of cigarette, and the sparks flickered on his fingertips.

After a cigarette reached the end, he flicked it into the sea, only to find that there were a few boxes floating on the sea a few meters away.

"It's a box again!"

Riding a horse, he seems to have a lot of fate with the box? From time to time, you can see boxes at sea, or you can find them at the bottom of the sea.

Except that a box is a box.

It's just that the things that come out, big and small, have everything, just like opening a blind box.

The others saw that there was nothing to do now, except for waiting, so they could only wait, so they all took the opportunity to sleep, squatting on the ground and picking and picking, and his father was also there to bow his head and eat the vegetables violently, as if he saw it.

He looked at the boat that hit the reef not far away, probably because when the boat hit the reef, the hull of the boat shook and tilted, so it accidentally fell into the water.

Idle is also idle, and if you don't fish for nothing, you won't catch it.

"Hey, don't worry about sorting first, take a bamboo pole to hook the box that floats down the water over there, and see if you can hook it?"

"Where?"

"Ouch, this is the boat in front of you that fell? Why don't you fish it out first and see what's inside? That ship is a cargo ship, and it's a bit of a good thing to keep it in order. ”

Father Ye also leaned to the side of the boat with his rice bowl in his hand, "Is there any cargo on that boat?" Let's take a look at it first. ”

"If you want to pay ......"

"What else? Anyway, they all fell into the sea, as long as they can get out of danger, they will be Amitabha, where do they care about this bit of goods? I'll have to thank us for the two boats later. "The old boatman said.

Ye Yaodong also agreed, "Anyway, they don't know, if they don't pick up the blanks, don't be too honest Chen Shi, people are full of goods, where can these boxes be missing, and if you can get out of danger and keep the rest of the goods, you should cry bitterly." ”

"Like, who knew we had caught their goods? They fell into the sea by themselves, and we also came up to help them, and when we saw that there were boxes on the sea, what happened to how many were fished? The old boatman took a long bamboo pole and hooked it.

"Keep the movement quiet, hook to the stern, let the cabin block it, let's lift this box up again, don't show them it."

One by one, they are looking around on the sea, waiting for rescue, and seeing it, it is not good if it is not returned when the time comes.

"Okay, I'll go to the stern hook........."

The three- or four-meter-long bamboo pole is also very easy to drive, and the hook tied on it slowly hooks the box towards the fishing boat little by little.

"Shine a flashlight again and see if there's anything on the surface? I don't know what kind of good goods are guaranteed. ”

"It's all photographed, everything I just saw has floated away, and this is the only one that can be hooked."

Don't wait for his father to say, he has already shone the flashlight everywhere, who doesn't want the lost work fee for nothing?

I don't know if it's worth the money.

When the boatman hooked the box to the side of the boat, he followed to carry it.

"Hey, fuck, it's pretty heavy, it's half down in the sea, what's the matter?"

"Don't worry about it yet, just lift it up and take a look."

"Isn't this lifting? Speak without delaying me to carry the goods. ”

The two of them worked together to lift a small boxy box directly to the edge of the cabin, and the aisle, which was originally only allowed to accommodate one person, lifted the box and placed it in the aisle.

"Let's open the box here, there is a cabin in the way, no one can see it, let's see what's in it first."

"Take the pliers to take this stick away......"

"I'll get ......"

Idle, the four of them all stretched their necks, eager to see what was inside, and they all stood on the small aisle waiting to open the box.

"Do you think this one could be a smuggling ship? Is this box full of smuggled goods? ”

"Possibly."

"Then wait for the rescue ship to come, then aren't they directly caught?"

"So, don't let the contents of this box be in vain, why should you return them? If you know that Chen Shi is not Chen Shi, your name is Chen Shi, and you don't have to be very honest. ”

Chen Shi smiled embarrassedly.

"It's just a guess, who knows if people are just transporting goods normally, anyway, whatever, let's see what it is first......"

As soon as Ye Yaodong's words fell, he opened the box.

"Huh? Straw? As soon as he opened the box and saw the straw, he quickly pushed it away, "Huh? Can? Canned fish? ”

"Huh? Is it canned fish? And canned fish? ”

"Can you make canned fish?"

"Aren't they all canned oranges and yellow peaches? There can also be canned fish, and we can also make canned fish in the sea, what is the taste? Show me a can! ”

Father Ye stretched out his hand to him in surprise, and after taking a can, he took it under the light and looked back and forth, muttering in amazement.

"You just asked me a few days ago if I know canned fish, it turns out that there are really canned fish? Tut-tut, this fish has never been eaten less in my life, and I haven't heard of it when it is made into canned fish. ”

Ye Yaodong also used a flashlight to shine back and forth on the canned fish in his hand, this thing is not cheap now.

"I just asked casually, I also heard about it, but I didn't expect it to really exist, it's made of tempeh, right? It's rare......"

"I haven't even heard of it, I only know that there are canned oranges, canned yellow peaches, this canned fish is the first time I've seen it, is this thing expensive? What kind of fish is this fish with the print on it? I'm old, and my eyes are not good at night......"

The boatman was also curious to take a can and look back and forth there, fiddling with it.

Ye Yaodong said: "It's canned dace." ”

"Dace? What kind of fish is dace? ”

"It's freshwater fish."

"I said, why haven't I seen it, I haven't heard of it, freshwater fish is not delicious, who eats it, and it is specially made into canned food...... "Father Ye shook his head and said with disgust, "I fished it for nothing, I thought there was something good." ”

"You can't be prejudiced, freshwater fish is also delicious."

"I can't eat everything in the sea, and whoever wants to eat the smell of the river should put it back and throw it back into the sea, it's useless to take it. It is also deliberately made into canned food... It's really a panic of burning a lot of money, such a small fish, it's a big palm, and it's disgusting to give it away, we have to dump thousands of catties back into the sea every day, and some people even use it to make canned fish? ”

Father Ye thought it was unbelievable, and put the canned fish back in disgust, "It's better to catch a box of canned oranges." ”

"You haven't even tried it, so you know it's not delicious? Such a small fish is cheap, and the cost of making canned food is too low, so there is a big profit, you know? ”

"If you want it, keep it."

"Aren't you eating? I'll open a jar for you to taste, just in time for you to eat. ”

"I don't eat this, there are more fish and shrimp on the boat, why do I still eat this freshwater fish, who knows if this fish is new or not, I don't eat it if it's fresh, eat this?"

Father Ye shook his head in disgust as usual, and walked to the deck after finishing speaking, no matter what these goods were, for him, these are not attractive at all, they are not as good as crabs full of shells.

The boatman also shook his head, "Of course it's fresh and delicious, all of us on the beach eat sea fish, who eats freshwater?" I thought there was something good, such a big boat, it turned out to be filled with this canned freshwater fish. ”

Ye Yaodong looked at the two old men with disgust, and he was speechless, the old man's thinking was deep-rooted, and it was clear that this canned fish was not cheap.

"Forget it, don't pull it down, I'll keep it for dinner, we can't buy this canned fish, and now it's all for export."

"Those people have never eaten fresh, so they can only eat this."

"If you want to say that, it's true, you can't eat marine fish in inland areas, they are all freshwater fish, and some places don't even have freshwater fish, this kind of freshwater canned fish is also popular with them, and the flavor of this tempeh is also quite unique, don't you believe I will open one for you to try?"

"Didn't you say this is all for export? Why is it inland again? Father Ye listened to his words and words, and his face was full of puzzlement.

Ye Yaodong is also a little speechless, although this is all exported now, but the inland area is also popular, and his time node is also a little confused, one sentence here and one sentence there.

"Okay, I'm talking a little bit nonsense, you just listen blindly, why are you so serious."

"It turns out that you're bragging, just say, who wants to eat this."

Alas, Ye Yaodong simply took one to the deck and cut it with a knife, ready to give him a taste.

Everything has to be tried and then spoken.

"Try it and you'll know, different fish have different flavors, like Balang fish, isn't it worthless? But we all like it...... Ah......h

Ye Yaodong's eyes widened, looking at the black round beads that were not on the right board in the broken can, and his eyes were about to bulge.

What's going on?

And the others were also very surprised, didn't they say that the good thing was canned fish?

Originally, everyone was about to turn around, but now they all looked back curiously.

"What is this? Why is it as black as rat? ”

"Isn't it canned fish? How to open without fish, what is it? It's really like rat......"

"Where's the fish, the fish?"

Ye Yaodong was also uncertain, raised his hand and looked at the picture on the edge of the can, yes, there was a canned dace pasted on it, and there was a picture of dace.

"This is a lie, isn't it? There is a fish sign on the outside, but there is no fish when the inside is open. ”
