Years: Return to the Leisurely Fishing Village

Chapter 29: Loyalty Is Offended

Tan Shaoyang went to the meat stall and took a look around. At this time, all the good stuff was sold out, and only some bones surrounded by flies were left.

He originally wanted to buy some, but when he saw the bunch of flies, he gave up!
There are a lot of food in the sea, so don't be extravagant.

Tan Shaoyang was riding his bike home, but before he got home, he heard a noisy sound, which was vaguely familiar to him.

The stubborn old man looked arrogant and scolded Tan's father fiercely, "Why are you so narrow-minded? When you see others making money, you try to stop them."

"You're pretending to be considerate of others. It's really disgusting. In the end, aren't you worried that there are too many ships on the sea and it will affect your ability to make money?"

"You said it so nicely, thinking about us, but you think others don't know what you are thinking!"

"Anyone who listens to you is a fool. They are just afraid that others will make money and surpass you, and then they will have no sense of existence."

Father Tan was also very angry when he was questioned. He said with his neck stiff, "When did I ever fear that you guys would go out to sea? Didn't I just remind you that since you paid the deposit, you should let Lao Tie ship the boat back?"

"The sea is so wide, why should I be afraid? Whether you can catch fish depends entirely on luck. If you want to go, go ahead. Why would I be jealous?"

"It's just like a dog biting Lu Dongbin, who doesn't know how to appreciate a good person's kindness."

"My friend used to stroll along the beach. What connections could he have? Don't be fooled by his sweet words. If you run out of money, I'm afraid you, an old stubborn man, will commit suicide by jumping into the sea!"

"It's true that honest advice is hard to hear. If you don't want to hear it, forget it."

How could this stubborn old man accept this?
The origin of his name is that he has a very stubborn temper and is not willing to listen to other people's advice.
"Others don't have any connections or abilities, but your son is strong, right?"

"Other people are strolling on the beach, isn't your son doing the same? You only allow your son to make money, but you don't allow others to be diligent."

"Maybe they will find a way!"

"We are all from the same village. If he deceives others, isn't he afraid?"

"Unless he doesn't want to stay in the village anymore, he wouldn't do such a thing. When Lao Tie comes over, you can confront him face to face to see if he really deceived us."

Mr. Tan was so angry that he wanted to kill himself. His son was diligent and had found a way out. He had to pay for the fish and it was not like he owed money to others.

But Lao Tie is different, he is a man who speaks in plain words with nothing in his hands, and is full of nonsense, he can take out a fishing boat, and he eats sand while standing upside down.

He would confront him face to face. He was never afraid of anything. If his friend could get the fishing boat back, he would save his face and apologize to him.

If he fails to bring back the fishing boat, then he is deceiving people, but he can also be considered as saving them, and his conscience can be at peace.

There was a lot of noisy noise, but my friend was nowhere to be seen. It was obvious that he was too guilty to come out.

Mr. Tan felt more and more that what his son said was correct. The other party had bad intentions and was trying to defraud them of their money.

At this time, Tan Shaoyang also came over.

There were crowds of people watching nearby, all indifferent, just enjoying the show.

After all, most people don’t have that much savings, and taking out a few hundred dollars is nothing but a pipe dream.

Although I want to buy a boat, I won't go too far with my fantasy.

Tan Shaoyang saw his father's face turning purple with anger, patted his shoulder and comforted him, "Dad, you are old, don't get angry easily, just fulfill your obligations and give proper reminders."

"You don't need to influence other people's choices. Everyone has different ideas. There's no need to put your own ideas above others." "He is willing to use the money to gamble, so why should you stop him? Even if he was really cheated by his friend, it was his decision. You can't blame others."

"We have a boat. If you stop others, it will indeed make people feel that you can't stand others making money. In this case, why do you do such a thankless thing?"

After saying that, he looked at the stubborn old man and said, "Uncle stubborn old man, don't be angry. Since you think my father has impure intentions, then stick to it to the end."

"My family's boat cost 2,000 yuan when we bought it, and it has been used for a long time. Now it is a ship, which costs at least several thousand or tens of thousands of yuan. It is impossible to buy a ship with just a few hundred yuan."

"You can't even buy the engine and instrument panel for the boat. Think about it carefully. I won't persuade you any more, lest you think I'm on my dad's side."

"Everyone, go away. Don't join in the fun. Go fishing if you need to. I'll take the squid if you catch any. I'll sell them for 10 cents per pound."

Those who are involved in the matter are always confused, while bystanders can see clearly. Those who are caught up in the situation will never understand.

Now no one cares about the stubborn old man anymore.

When it comes to whether you can make money or not, your own business is definitely more important.

"Tan Lao San, are you telling the truth?"

"Not only are we collecting swimming crabs, but we're also collecting cuttlefish now?"

The cuttlefish is so tiny that no one would even pick it up when they saw it. Now that it can be exchanged for money, how can I not be happy?

The surprises are bigger than each other!

I wish the tide would recede immediately so I could rush to the beach.

Being able to have two more sources of income means earning at least 10 or 8 yuan more a month. Isn't that more exciting than just watching others have fun?
They didn't dare to think about buying a boat, and they had no experience going out to sea. It would be good enough if they could earn some money from fishing. An extra source of income would make their lives a little better.

Tan Shaoyang nodded, "For now, we are collecting swimming crabs, cuttlefish, sea cucumbers, and abalone. You can pack them up and send them directly to my house."

"I won't take the fish for now."

Doesn’t the mute girl’s father have a big appetite?
He wanted to see how difficult it would be if he collected too much and couldn't sell it.

I wonder if he can still show off.

He is a vengeful person. If you offend him, he will take revenge. He is not a clay man and cannot always be controlled by others!
I want to let the mute sister's father see if anyone can be controlled by him?
Don't think you can be proud just because you have a relative.

The higher you stand, the harder you fall.

The higher the status of a person, the more low-key he should be, so as to avoid being disliked and bullied by others.

The stubborn old man watched the situation change completely, pouted his lips, and was quite depressed, but he couldn't explain why.

Finally, he just waved his sleeves and left. He trusted himself very much. His old friend had spoken so solemnly that he would definitely not be fooled. When his fishing boat was brought back, these people would be blinded!
Question him now, and be jealous of him later. Just imagining that scene makes me happy.

As for what Tan's father suspected, he completely put it out of his mind. His mind was occupied by his fantasy and he could only think about the fishing boat.

After watching the people leave, Tan Shaoyang took his father home.

"Dad, let's go back and count the money. I've also sold those cuttlefish."
