Sunday, June 26, 1977.

As soon as the day dawned, more than a dozen "Hai Pengzi" by the "Yunwu Cliff" got up and set up camp. However, when everyone packed up their things, they discovered that there was still a huge problem that was quite worrying.

It turned out that there were too many sea creatures harvested this time, and together with their respective luggage, they couldn't carry them at all. If everyone wants to go on the road, they must either abandon some things or send someone to stay behind to guard them.

However, throwing things away is purely a prodigal behavior. Whether it is the tools that the "Hai Bangzi" have used or the fruits of labor exchanged with blood and sweat, which one is easily obtained? Who among us is willing to give up like this?

Similarly, it has been nearly 20 days since I went out to "touch the sea". Everyone is exhausted. Everyone is thinking about the comfortable beds and delicious meals at home. They can't wait to get together with their family members who care about them. Who is willing to do so? What about being left behind?

So for a while, no one knew what to do. Even the "general" and "old saury" frowned deeply, feeling helpless and embarrassed.

At the critical moment, it was Hong Yanwu who took the lead again. He came up with an idea and suggested that everyone work together to dig a big hole on the shore, bury all the tools, cooking utensils and bedding in it, and set off with only the sea goods.

In this way, as long as you remember the right place, before the next time you "hit the sea", let a few "sea bumpers" who live in nearby fishing villages dig out these materials together and bring them to meet everyone. Can.

This method is really a good idea and completely solves the thorny problem at hand. Everyone couldn't help but give a thumbs up to Hong Yanwu and shouted Gao Ming. The "general" secretly admired him and strengthened his appreciation for Hong Yanwu.

But even so, after setting out on the road, each person carried an average weight of more than 100 kilograms. Everyone was exhausted from walking and resting along the way. Especially for the weak "Lao Daoyu", "Xiaobaizi" and "Seagozi", this amount is really embarrassing. Although they were happy in their hearts, halfway through, the three of them seemed to be unable to hold on.

Fortunately, there are advantages to having more people, since there are "general", Hong Yanwu and Chen Liquan, the three most powerful masters. The three of them took the initiative to share one person's burden, and each found a wooden stick to carry two bags of sea food. Only "Old Saury", "Xiaobaizi" and "Seagouzi" could help others share some of the weight. . Continuing to move forward in this way, they finally arrived at their destination before noon.

Last night, Hong Yanwu suggested to "General" that all sea food should be sent to "Old Saury"'s home first. Because the "Old Saury" house was built when he "Zhao" Sea Cucumber had a lot of money. Although it is dilapidated now, it is quite spacious. It is a brick house and has a big yard. It can be used to continue drying those semi-dried sea cucumbers, and it is also convenient for counting the quantity and collecting and selling them in the future.

The "General" also knows that his residence in the city is small. In the past, his method has been to dry it separately at the homes of various "Hai Bangzi", and finally bring it to the city to sell. So he readily agreed on the spot. Everyone came here to take a look today, and it turned out that it was true. In terms of area, "Old Sabry"'s home was definitely one of the best in "Oyster Bay".

But for the wife of "Old Saury", today was really a shock. She had never seen so many people carrying large and small bags to her home, and she never thought that this was what everyone gained from "touching the sea". When she heard "Old Saberfish" calling the door, she had just half opened the door. When she saw this scene, she felt dizzy and almost sat down on the ground.

Fortunately, "Old Swordfish" has a sharp eye and caught his wife in a hurry, otherwise her wife would have been suffering from a chronic disease, so this fall would have resulted in something good or bad.

"Old Swordfish" also knew that he wanted to hide the door from others, so he quickly shouted at everyone to quickly enter the yard, and kept urging his "wife" to help close the door. Fortunately, his house was built on the top of a small slope, so that he could lie on the kang and see the sea in the distance. Therefore, the location was considered a remote area of ​​the fishing village, so it did not attract the attention of others.

When everyone entered the yard and opened the big and small bags, the wife of "Old Saury" was really dumbfounded. Colorful abalones and small stick-like sea cucumbers are everywhere, piled up in dozens of pockets, just like dozens of pockets full of silver, which can almost blind one's eyes.

She couldn't help but asked in shock, "Why are there so many seafood products! Where did they come from? Didn't you rob the aquatic products company?"

"Old Swordfish" blushed at his wife's silly words and immediately scolded her.

"Women, you really have never seen the world! What nonsense are you talking about! This was all made by us all under the water. You'd better get food quickly and leave with so many things on your back. We were all starving along the way!”

Finally, under the constant urging of "Old Saury", his wife finally recovered from her stunned state and took a breath of cold air to prepare the meal.

Since before coming to "Yunwu Cliff" this time, "Old Saury" had already given all the money to his family, and there were also seafood brought by the "sea bumpers", he had to take care of this meal, financially speaking It’s not difficult. It's just that meals for more than ten people can't be made in a short time, so "Xiaobaizi" and "Seagouzi" listened to Hong Yanwu's instructions and went to the kitchen to help.

There are a lot of things that the "Hai Bangzi" have to do next, so during this period of time, under the orders of the "General", everyone also started to work nervously together.

Some of them spread newspapers on the ground and spread the sea cucumbers one by one to continue drying. Others were responsible for digging out the abalone meat that had not been cleaned in time, and then bundling and packaging the abalone shells individually.

Fortunately, there are many people and strength, and by the time the food comes out at one o'clock in the afternoon, the "Hai Bangzi" have all their work done.

The final count was that there were nearly 600 kilograms of abalone shells, and the rest were semi-dried sea cucumbers. Estimated in proportion, these almost covered the entire yard. Two hundred kilograms, compared with the thirty or forty kilograms caught by "General" and his crew in the past, it is simply appalling. It can be said to be a huge harvest.

Although everyone in the "Hai Bongzi" group had been prepared, they were still shocked when they learned the specific figures.

Who can not be happy? I don't know who it was, but the first one jumped up and shouted "Long live!" followed by "Get rich!" The sound echoed throughout the courtyard.

If "General" and "Hong Yanwu" hadn't reacted immediately and stopped them in time, these guys would have knocked down the roof tiles and attracted the whole village like wild wolves. But just like that, everyone was still very excited when they were sitting at the dinner table. They were all dancing with bowls and chopsticks, grinning from ear to ear.

The "Flying Crab", whose round head was as bright as a light bulb, said, "This is an unprecedented victory! I don't think there are any 'Hai Bangzi' in Bincheng who are as capable as us! According to my estimation, The stuff I got out of this trip can be converted into banknotes, which is almost 2,000 yuan!"

The hook-nosed "Shrimp Crawler" said, "That's right! We didn't fish or catch shrimps this time, and almost all the scallops and conches we picked were thrown on the beach. In addition to bringing back some for ourselves For food, the other items brought back are sea cucumbers covered in thorns and palm-sized abalones, but these two are the most valuable at the moment!"

"Sanjizi" continued, "I also think we are more heroic than the heroes of Liangshan. They eat wine and meat from a big bowl and divide gold and silver on a small scale. It's so petty."

"Ba Chu" immediately laughed, "Your 'Sanjizi' head is as stupid as the head of a black fish. People's scales measure gold and silver. How much does a pound of gold cost? How much does a pound of silver cost? So do you." It’s not easy to calculate! And when it comes to weighing, it’s also very careful and fair.”

Sea Bunny also chimed in, "If you use a scale to divide things fairly, I believe in Big Brother! Big Brother is the fairest, and you can divide it how you say. Whoever dares to object, ask me about my knife first. I think our 'General' is no worse than Liangshanbo's 'Tota King' Chao Gai, and even better than 'Timely Rain' Song Jiang!"

When "Flying Crab" heard the "pop" sound, he slapped the table, "It shows your loyalty! My eldest brother and I are older than you! Besides, you (mother) should keep your voice down! Chao Gai, Song Jiang That’s feudalism, and it’s more reactionary than capitalism. I think the eldest brother can only be Li Kui, and Li Kui is from a poor and lower-middle peasant background..."

This time it was the "dead corpse"'s turn to take over the words. "Shit, no one can compare to my brother in terms of water quality. I think Zhang Shun from 'Langli Baitiao' is about the same. He is a man from our fisherman's family, and he drinks 'Black Whirlwind' so well..."

"Xiaozizi" raised his head in confusion. "Zhang Shun? That's the overlord fisherman in Jiangzhou. From my perspective, in terms of composition and ability, he has to be the 'Three Heroes of the Ruan Family' from Shijie Village..."

"Sanjizi" started shouting again. "Fuck! If you ask the eldest brother to be the 'Three Heroes of the Ruan Family', where will the rest of us go?"

"Ba Chu" is still deliberately targeting. "Even if the eldest brother is Chao Gai, the 'Three Heroes' don't include you! 'Flying Crab', 'Xiaozi' and I are just three brothers. It has nothing to do with you..."

"Hahaha..." Several "Hai Bangzi" on the table pointed at the embarrassed "Sanjizi" and burst into laughter, making the dishes and chopsticks on the table bang.

And this nonsense, full of arrogance and ignorance, made the "general" blush for these living treasures. He was embarrassed to look at Hong Yanwu for a few times, and then he even couldn't help but want to intervene.

But Hong Yanwu, who was sitting next to him, knew what he was thinking at a glance and grabbed his arm without waiting for him to say anything.

"Don't say goodbye! I've been riding the waves, risking my life in the cold, just for today! Let them chat as they please..."
