Beachcombing: The beach is full of amazing seafood, but my wife won't let me get out of bed!
Chapter 71 Nighttime Beachcombing
Wu Jianguo also accomplished great things at sea back in the day.
In those days, every household was starving, and there wasn't enough farmland locally, so people had no choice but to go to sea to make a living.
He's seen even more money, let alone two million.
He put down his wine glass, looked around at his family, and finally his gaze fell on Wang Feng.
"I bought it, so I bought it. I've seen that yard in town before. It's big enough and a legitimate business."
Wang Feng panicked: "Dad, that's over two million yuan! How can you just buy it like that? Second brother didn't even discuss it with the family."
Wu Jianguo glared and slammed his hand on the table.
"What's there to discuss? That's money the second son earned himself. He can discuss it with Xiaoxue. What's there to discuss with you?"
"Buying a boat or a house is property investment; you can't escape it!"
"The second son is doing something legitimate now, which is better than him gambling it away."
"Alright, stop arguing about this. This is a good thing."
"Take me to town another day, and I'll give you some ideas."
The old man made the final decision, and no one dared to speak after that.
Although Wang Feng was heartbroken, she knew that the old man was right.
In the past, when Wu Sui gambled, he would lose real money without a trace.
At least now they've gotten a large yard back in exchange.
The old woman sighed and bent down to pick up the chopsticks.
The turmoil has temporarily subsided.
Wu Gang looked at Wu Sui with a worried expression.
"Second brother, buying the yard is a good thing, but your sister-in-law is right, what about the remaining two hundred thousand yuan for the big ship next month?"
"How about this, I'll use the 600,000 you gave me to cover the remaining balance first."
Looking at his family, Wu Sui felt a surge of warmth in his heart.
Although his sister-in-law has a loud voice, she really cares about him.
The older brother didn't even ask any questions before he started to pay.
But he waved his hand: "Brother, that money was your investment capital; we can't confuse it with that."
"There are still over forty days until delivery next month, we can make it back."
Wang Feng's anger, which she had just suppressed, flared up again, and Chen Xue pulled her back, managing to suppress it.
Wu Sui dared not provoke bad luck and quickly looked at his elder brother.
"Big brother, Xiao Yang, hurry up and eat."
"After you've eaten, go take a nap. The wind has stopped now, so let's go out to sea tonight and see if we can find anything good on the island."
Upon hearing this, the old woman became agitated and slammed the chopsticks she had just picked up back onto the table.
"It's so late at night, the wind has just stopped, why go to an island?"
"It's pitch black; if you fell into the sea, no one would know."
"Can't we go tomorrow during the day?"
Wu Jianguo tapped the pipe in his hand, making a "clattering" sound.
"What do women know?"
"Fishing at sea depends on the weather. Do you stay when the wind stops and wait for it to pick up again?"
"Stop rambling and go pack their things."
After the old man spoke, the old woman was too stern to talk back. She could only sigh, stand up, and pull Chen Xue and Wang Feng toward the kitchen.
Wang Feng muttered to herself as she walked.
"The second son is obsessed with money now."
"I just spent over two million, and I'm already in a hurry to make money."
"What good stuff could you possibly catch on that deserted island in the middle of the night?"
Chen Xue smiled and pulled Ya Ya and Xiao Hu to help.
"I think it's great, it's just too tiring."
Wang Feng glared at her and shook her head helplessly.
Chen Xue is good in every way, except that she is a bit too soft-hearted.
If I have the chance in the future, I'll have to teach her how to manage men.
Although she didn't say anything nice, she was quicker than anyone else in her actions.
The chickens Wu Sui brought back were quickly and efficiently prepared for them.
I steamed a big pot of rice, stir-fried a few side dishes, and even packed up the chicken soup that we hadn't finished last night.
Chen Xue filled the kettle with water, then ran back to the stone house to find a windproof jacket for Wu Sui and Chen Yang.
Ya Ya and Xiao Hu had been running around all day and were so tired that they were practically falling asleep. They had already been carried into the inner room and were fast asleep.
It was past 11 p.m.
Wu Sui led Wu Gang and Chen Yang out the door and headed straight for the dock.
The typhoon had just passed, and the clouds in the sky had not completely dispersed, so not even a single star could be seen.
However, the sea was unusually calm, without the noise of strong winds and waves.
Wu Gang had informed Cheng Kaixuan in advance that he would rent his family's small fishing boat for a few more days.
The three boarded the boat, and Wu Gang skillfully started the engine.
"Rat-a-tat-tat..."
The small fishing boat broke through the seawater and headed towards the island where they had caught goby fish last time.
Less than ten minutes after the boat set sail, Chen Yang, who was originally sitting at the stern, started acting strangely.
His face was pale, and he gripped the side of the boat with both hands, his body swaying back and forth with the rise and fall of the boat.
"vomit……"
Chen Yang leaned half his body out onto the gunwale, leaving his dinner to the sea.
Wu Sui quickly moved two steps to the side, looking disgusted.
"Hey kid, aim carefully, don't get it on me."
Chen Yang vomited until tears streamed down his face. He turned his head away, unable to speak clearly.
"Big...Big brother, brother-in-law..."
"There's clearly no wind, so why is this boat rocking so much?"
"My brain is spinning, I can't take it anymore, I feel like I'm going to die."
Wu Gang, at the helm, couldn't help but burst into laughter at Chen Yang's miserable state.
"Xiao Yang, the sea is calm today, and the boat is very stable."
"What's that? If we encounter a really big wave, the bow of the boat could be tilted to the sky."
"Go ahead and throw up. You'll get used to it after a while."
"In our line of work, who hasn't vomited bile when they first boarded the ship?"
Wu Sui took a water bottle from the side, unscrewed the cap, and handed it over.
"Rinse your mouth quickly."
"You used all that good food from tonight to bait the fish."
Chen Yang took the water bottle with trembling hands and took a small sip.
The boat bobbed gently with the waves.
"vomit……"
He leaned against the side of the boat again and vomited violently.
Chen Yang vomited almost the entire way, until finally he couldn't even vomit bile anymore and could only lie on the deck groaning.
The fishing boat finally docked at the edge of the small island.
Wu Gang dropped the anchor and secured the boat.
Chen Yang tumbled and scrambled off the boat, his feet landing firmly on the mud and sand, and he collapsed to the ground.
"He's alive..."
"I really feel like I almost saw my great-grandmother just now."
He was panting heavily, clinging to a large rock beside him, refusing to let go.
Wu Sui ignored him and looked out onto the beach with her headlamp on.
The tide has receded, revealing a large expanse of wet mudflats.
Wu Sui activated the system radar in his mind, and his field of vision changed.
He scanned the beach with great anticipation.
As a result, the expression on his face immediately fell.
Clean and tidy.
On the vast beach, apart from the occasional faint white light, there wasn't a single decent item.
The light indicates that the clams are just ordinary, worthless things.
Coming here in the middle of the night, are you trying to send an air force?
"Second brother, what are you daydreaming about?"
Wu Gang jumped off the boat, carrying two plastic buckets and holding a shovel.
"Which area should we dig in?"
Wu Sui turned off the flashlight and pointed in the direction of the reef area where he had caught crab gobies last time.
"There's nothing here, let's walk over there and see."
