Chapter 61: Fishing at Sea
Relatives and friends went back one after another, and peace returned to my uncle's house.
Yang Zilan packed up her things in Zhang Qinghe's room, so that when she came back one day, she could live comfortably.
"Xiaoxi, otherwise, you take another day off, and we will go back tomorrow evening."
"I'm here, I'll play around for two days and then go back."
Lin Xi is also a little excited, it is summer, when she plays in the water at the beach, she really wants to play for two days and then go back.
"I'll try and see if I can take a leave of absence."
Although it is much easier for Liang Mushroom to ask for leave after becoming a supervisor, many customers are with her, and she still has to handle the work well, and she is a person with a strong sense of responsibility.
"Hmm." Ling Siye wished she had resigned.
Lin Xi picked up his mobile phone and checked the progress of his work, there was nothing urgent in the past two days. Customer complaints have also been dealt with, just like the delivery of these two days, and the latest customer orders on it, the market research back to do it is too late, and the production progress can be communicated by phone.
Lin Xi walked into the courtyard and called Feng Ruyi.
"Ruyi, I want to take two more days off, these two days of invoices and new orders, can you help me deal with it, and I will invite you to dinner when I come back."
"Okay, no problem, I'm going to have a big meal."
"Yes, you can choose the place."
Feng Ruyi thought to herself, it would definitely be beneficial to help Lin Xi deal with these now. Lin Xi's customers are all high-quality customers, with a large single and high commission, if Lin Xi resigns one day, then she can have a reason to take over.
Lin Xi naturally didn't know about this, Feng Ruyi agreed to help, and she happily sent a message to Liang Mushroom.
"Director Liang, I want to take another day off, and I will go to work again on Wednesday morning, the invoice and new orders, I have asked Ruyi to help deal with them, and I will follow up on the rest."
"Yes, you can follow up on the work."
"Thank you, Director Liang."
Lin Xi was ecstatic, and walked into the house with a smile in his eyebrows.
"Hee-hee, I've successfully taken a leave of absence."
"Then let's have fun for two days."
Yang Zilan came out of Zhang Qinghe's room and happened to hear the conversation between Ling Siye and Lin Xi.
"If you have time, stay a few more days, go swimming on the beach in the evening, and I'll ask Ah Xiang to take you out to sea to fish."
Lin Xi looked at Ling Siye expectantly, Ling Siye touched her head dotingly and said, "Go and experience it." ”
"Auntie, are you going?" Lin Xi asked Yang Zilan.
"I'm not going, I'm going to set up a stall."
Lin Xi found out that the yard of his uncle's house was full of fishing nets and shrimp pots, but now he has not seen any of them.
Also, now there are only two women left, my aunt and Qinghe, how can I go out to sea to fish?
So my aunt is now making some living expenses by selling dried seafood at a stall?
"Auntie, where are you going? We'll help you move your things. ”
"No, I built a small house in the square of the fishing village wharf, and I set up a stall there every day."
Lin Xi nodded, thoughtful.
"Let's go, go to Ah Xiang, if the weather is good, he will go to sea."
Ling Siye and Lin Xi followed Yang Zilan, bypassed a few old houses, and came to Ah Xiang's house, where Ah Xiang was sorting out the fishing nets at the door.
"Ah Xiang, are you going to sea today? Take Nozomi and the two of them. ”
"Yes, I'll leave in a moment." Ah Xiang readily agreed.
"Then I'll go."
"Okay, aunt, I'll look for you when I get back."
Lin Xi watched Yang Zilan leave, her back was a little hunched.
"Xiaoxi, Ah Ye, I'll take you to experience fishing, people who haven't experienced it still feel fresh, but for us, it's just one word, tired." Ah Xiang tidied up the fishing nets and set them aside.
Ling Siye handed Ah Xiang a cigarette: "Indeed, rely on the sky to eat." ”
"Yes, if the weather is bad, you can only rest at home, there is no income, and it will be dangerous in the event of a typhoon."
"Therefore, we all watch the weather to eat, and what we must see every day is the weather forecast."
"Sometimes it's weather reports."
Ling Siye thought to himself: Everyone has their own difficulties, and it is not easy for everyone, but in order to live, how many people have worked hard year after year.
"Safety is the most important thing, and you must not go to sea in bad weather."
"Well, we'll be careful."
Ling Siye was thinking in his heart about how to drive the tourism here so that they could live a better life.
"Let's go, let's go."
"Okay."
Ah Xiang was wearing rain boots and holding a fishing net, and Ling Siye and Lin Xi followed one after the other.
When we arrived at the wharf, most of the fishing boats had already gone to sea, and only a few were left, rocking on the surface of the sea.
What Ling Siye and Lin Xi didn't expect was that Ah Xiang's fishing boat was not an old boat, but an electric boat that could carry more than a dozen people.
As soon as he got on the boat, Ah Xiang handed two life jackets to Ling Siye and Lin Xi: "Safety is important. ”
Ah Xiang himself put on a life jacket.
"You'd better wear it too." Ling Siye said softly.
"I don't wear it before I have a wife and children, I don't think it's necessary."
"Since I have a wife and children, I am more concerned about my own safety, and every time I go to sea, I will consciously put on a life jacket."
Hearing Ah Xiang say this, Ling Siye was slightly stunned, the responsibility that a man should have worn away his youthful frivolity.
"Sit down." Ah Xiang took a cigarette in his mouth and walked to the bow driver's seat.
Ling Siye gently pulled Lin Xi over and sat down on the side.
The fishing boat starts up and slowly sails into the depths of the ocean.
The morning sun is gentle, gently sprinkled on the sea, sparkling, and where the fishing boats pass, stirring up bursts of waves.
Ten minutes later, the engine was turned off, and the fishing boat floated in the middle of the sea, unusually quiet.
"Ah Xiang, that's all for today?" Ling Siye stood up and walked towards Ah Xiang.
"Yes, don't go far, that's it, cast a few nets first."
Ah Xiang took out the fishing net and handed a corner to Ling Siye to hold, and then he shook the fishing net and tidied it up again.
Ah Xiang casts his net into the sea and then sails the boat out of the sea for a certain distance, so that the area of the net will be expanded, and he will have the opportunity to catch more seafood.
Lin Xi looked at Ah Xiang's familiar movements, and thought of his uncle again. In the past, she also went to sea with her uncle, rowed a wooden boat with her uncle, and then cast a net, everything was so familiar, but unfortunately, her uncle never came back.
Lin Xi's eyes were red, she looked up at the blue sky, occasionally a few seagulls flew by, she pretended to take pictures, so that Ling Siye would not see the sadness in her eyes.
"Ah Ye, come, help take it, collect the net, and see if there are any big fish."
"Okay, cast a few more nets, and we'll be fully loaded."
Ling Siye held one end of the fishing net, Ah Xiang slowly closed the net, and Lin Xi held the camera, ready to capture their excited moment.
The three of them stared intently at the fishing nets that had been collected little by little.
"Brother Xiang, there are a lot of fish, as well as shrimp and seafood." Lin Xi felt that he was already carrying a bag of happiness.
"It's a little small, but there are quite a lot of varieties."
Ling Siye wore rubber gloves and picked off the fish, shrimp, and seafood on the net one by one, and threw them into the plastic box not far away.
After all the nets were put away, the plastic box already accounted for one-third.
"Ah Xiang, what is your goal today?" Ling Siye looked at the rubber box and asked Ah Xiang.
"It's very promising to return with a full box." Ah Xiang grinned.
"It should be able to overachieve, and then another net." Ling Siye cheered for Ah Xiang.
Life is full of hope, it is a very beautiful thing, and when there is hope, it is full of motivation.
"Lailuo." Ah Xiang cast another net.
This time, they were very calm, and sat quietly on the boat waiting for a cigarette.
Ah Xiang picked up the penny and slapped it on the sea.
"Aren't you afraid of scaring the fish away?" Ling Siye was puzzled.
"No, when you hear a sound, the fish will flutter and burrow into the net."
Lin Xi sneered and laughed: "Just like people, some people want to do it, but they don't think of killing themselves." ”
Ling Siye: "......"
What does this little brain think?
After a few nets, a plastic box was full, and Ah Xiang smiled very happily.
"I really didn't expect that today's harvest would be so big."
"How much does this cost to sell?" Ling Siye looked at Ah Xiang's face full of joy and couldn't help but be curious.
Ah Xiang opened the box and glanced at the species of fish: "A conservative estimate is about eight hundred." ”
"It's good, Brother Xiang."
"It's good, sometimes you can't get anything, it's a common thing."
"Life is unknown." Lin Xi was very happy and kept taking pictures of the seafood in the plastic box, here, there were many brightly colored and good-looking fish, which she had never seen.
"Yes, although it is unknown, we still have to set off against the rising sun every day, and the cycle repeats."
Ah Xiang collected the nets, started the fishing boat, and returned.
Ling Siye and Lin Xi looked at the mountains on the other side of the sea, and the windmills kept turning.
