Back to the small fishing village in 1982

Chapter 1041: Sea Robbery (1 words, monthly ticket +14)

Ok? ? ?
This name? ?

Ye Yaodong turned to look at his father, and his father's smiling face turned into a look of confusion, looking at the middle-aged man stupidly.

"Dad, what did he say his name was?"

Father Ye looked at him in confusion.

Ye Yaodong looked at his father's silly look and stopped asking him. He turned around and asked the man called Ye Yaohai, "Brother? What did you say your name was?"

"What's wrong? They all call me Lao Hai."

Ah Cheng also recovered from his shock and quickly pulled Ye Yaodong, "Brother, did you really catch 11 kilograms in one net? And they were all plum fish, you are not kidding? Is this true? I have never heard of 11 kilograms in one net."

"Why would I lie to you? I'm here to sell goods, not to brag... No, wait a minute..."

Ye Yaodong had not forgotten the unexpected name he had just heard, "Brother, what did you say your name was?"

"Lao Hai, brother, are you hard of hearing?"

"Full name, did you just say Ye Yaohai?"

Ah Cheng continued to pull him, "That's his name. Let's talk about the goods first. Don't worry about him. He doesn't do this. Brother, take me to see the goods on your ship. It's parked at this dock, okay?"

Ye Yaodong is not in a hurry to sell the goods now.

If this name has nothing to do with their family, he won't believe anything.

Nowadays, most people name their children according to their generation because they want to be included in the family tree.

Some of the wanderers like them did not have generation names, but his grandfather was nostalgic, and even when he was begging, he did not give his children random names, but all of them had generation names.

It doesn’t matter for future generations. They will have one name in the family tree and another name in the household registration book.

"Brother, do you know my name? Ye Yaodong, my name is Ye Yaodong... I am from the Yao generation, my father is from the Jian generation, my son is from the Cheng generation, and my grandfather is from the Xu generation..."

Lao Hai was a little impatient when he heard him asking questions, but when he heard him say his name was Ye Yaodong, his eyes widened. Then when he heard him list the four generations of his family, his face turned into surprise.

"Oh my god, ancestors bless me, did I run into a member of our family?"

Father Ye was also somewhat excited. He used his poor Mandarin mixed with the local dialect, "We are of the same generation, so we are really family! Where is your family from?"

"I'm from Nanzhu County, and I came to the provincial capital specifically to make a living."

Ye Yaodong was also pleasantly surprised and said, "Damn, he's really from our family. My grandfather's hometown is also there. He said that he had no food to eat, and there were many brothers and children in the family, so he ran away to find food before he reached adulthood, and then he never went back."

It is also because of inconvenient transportation and bad roads.

"Oh, what a coincidence! I didn't expect to meet my family here. The older generation really had a hard life. Our generation also has a hard life. We are lucky to have enough food to eat. Where do you live now? Do you make a living by fishing?"

……

Ah Cheng looked at them in bewilderment as they reminisced about the past and recognized their relatives. He was also dumbfounded. Wasn't this just selling fish? How did it become a scene of recognizing relatives?
Moreover, this fish seller has even recognized his relatives, so can he still accept goods?

"No, brother, you are now relatives, so be happy if you are happy, but can we talk about business first? Are you still selling those fish?"

"Of course I'll sell it, but we need to discuss the price..."

Lao Hai waved his hand and said, "1 cents, it goes without saying that we are from the same family, we definitely cannot lower the price. We charge others 8 cents, but we cannot charge that low for ourselves."

Ah Cheng's eyes widened, "Are you crazy? 1 cents is not a lot of money."

"You can cheat anyone but not my family. Although this fish is in season now, the meat is tender and not that cheap. You can make less money. There are hundreds of thousands of kilograms of fish, and you can't eat so much. Let's split it in half."

"No... Who wants 1 cents to buy it? I didn't ask for 8 cents, I said 1 cents. Your own relatives are your own relatives, it's none of my business. I've always said 8 cents... No, I have to call my father, my uncle, my brother and others to come over. You are such a mess... Brother, wait for me..."

As soon as Father Pei came in, he saw the man running out like a gust of wind, and then Father Ye and Ye Yaodong were happily chatting with a middle-aged man.

And what are we talking about… going back to ask the elders’ names? Going back to the hometown to worship the ancestors when we have the chance?

What is all this?
I haven't seen him for a while, but why do I feel like he's not here to sell fish, but to meet his relatives?

They interrupted them in confusion, "Have you asked the price of the fish? How much is it?"

"We only asked Mei Tongyu, and the boss here said 1 cents. Lao Hai said we are family, so he would earn less and just a little for travel expenses and tea money, so he charged us 6 cents. The boss is now going to call his uncles and brothers to come over."

"Our family? Did you find any relatives here?"

"Yes, yes. I didn't expect to find relatives in this provincial capital. If he hadn't mentioned the name, my father and I wouldn't have known it. The last time we sold manta rays here, it was thanks to his reminder that we were able to sell them at a high price. It's really like a flood that washed away the Dragon King Temple. It turns out that we are all one family."

Ye Yaodong briefly told Pei's father what had just happened.

Pei's father was also very surprised. He didn't expect there would be such a turning point.

"Then there's no need to sell it to the small boss here, just sell it directly to Lao Hai."

Ye Yaodong gave Lao Hai a questioning look.

Lao Hai laughed and said, "If you only have tens of thousands of kilograms, then I can weigh them all, but your quantity is too large. If I weigh them all, the same kind of fish won't sell quickly and will be easily overweight."

"They also have their own channels. If we divide half of it, they can sell it faster. Besides, don't you have two ships? There are other goods on the ship, which add up to more than 100,000 or 200,000 kilograms. I'm not specialized in this."

That's true.

"Then wait until they arrive. They just said they couldn't afford so much at once. If you're not a delivery person, then what do you mainly do?"

"Haha, let's talk about this later."

Ye Yaodong's mind was full of question marks and he felt something was strange.

Is it also smuggling? That's why people around are so wary?
Shouldn't they be at the cargo dock? Was it to conceal the cargo from others?

He had a lot of wild guesses and didn't know if his guess was right or not. It would be a bad idea to continue asking. If the other person didn't give a direct answer, it meant that he couldn't say it openly.

After a while his father started chatting with others about their ancestors, but it was a bit confusing. His father mixed the two languages ​​​​and spoke lively, but others were confused and responded with a few words by guessing.

Not long after, the young man named Acheng came over with a few old men and strong men.

We continued to talk about the price and even took it to the boat to check the quantity for a while, since it was not busy so early in the morning.

Normally, no fishing boat has as much cargo as they do. The cargo of their two boats today is equivalent to the amount of cargo received by the entire fresh-collecting ship in a few days. The key is that the fresh-collecting ships usually have dedicated people on the shore to receive and sell the goods, or they are cooperative harvesting points. Only the occasional fishing boats that dock will ask for prices and look for buyers like them.

With Lao Hai helping out from time to time, they couldn't lower the price. Except for the whitebait, they gave a good price for all the other fish.

Both great white sharks are said to be 120 yuan each. All parts of the great white shark can be processed. The size and weight are there. In addition, due to the low rate of marine development in our country, it is rare to catch such a large shark, so the price will be correspondingly higher.

Unlike the large-scale fishing in foreign countries, the fish seem to be worthless in their hands, so in order to catch more and reduce space occupancy, many of them directly cut the fish fins.

The quantity of fish was too large, and they were unwilling to increase the price. A penny difference could make a difference of several hundred dollars. They just said that it was Lao Hai's business if he wanted to increase the price, and they were not their family. Later, it was Lao Hai who helped to talk them into paying a penny more, and they were finally willing to pay.

Then the number of his Mei Tong fish was divided equally between the two families. As for the other goods, the ones from the Fengshou were given to Acheng's family, and the ones from the Dongsheng continued to be given to Lao Hai's family. The two families each got one ship's worth of goods, so the division would be more fair. If all the goods were given to Lao Hai, he would also feel pressured.

After the price was agreed upon, the two ships allowed the boatmen to load the goods to the shore one after another.

Because there were so many mullets brought up, the open space in front of the purchasing point was filled up, attracting a large number of people who came to the morning market to buy vegetables.

Everyone gathered there, pointing and talking about how much they could sell all that stuff for. They said their big boats could catch a lot in one trip, and they were making a lot of money.

Any fishing boat returning to the port can be sold for at least a thousand dollars.

"There are more goods on the ground today. It looks much more. It is much more than the amount brought back by the big ships in the past."

"They are all plum fish. Aren't there too many plum fish today?"

"Yes, this is the cargo of one ship, right? Or several ships? These plum fish must weigh dozens of tons, right? Could it be a fresh fish collection ship?"

……

They were also there watching the transportation and chatting.

"I just came to this place this year. Once I've worked here for a while, I can arrange for more goods for you. I just started working, so I don't have much to collect, and I'm usually very idle."

"Thank you very much... My boat only officially went out to sea for fishing after the New Year this year. I will do it slowly and send the goods to you next time I go ashore."

"Okay, that saves me from running around the door yelling all day long. Everyone gets annoyed by me and wants to chase me away..."

Ye Yaodong couldn't help but twitching the corners of his mouth. The last time he carried the devil ashore, he saw Lao Hai gathered in the crowd to watch the fun. He looked very idle, but was still thinking about grabbing business and shouting there. It turned out that it was a common thing. It was probably also common to be chased away by various purchasing points.

It turns out that he just came here to hang out and is disliked by others, but no one knows what he does or what his background is. Everyone is afraid of him and dares not do anything to him. They can only watch him jumping around there.

"Let's weigh them. I think we've already moved most of the stuff. Weigh half of the fish first, and then the other groceries."

"Okay, then take delivery. Your large shipment of goods has opened up a new path for me..."

Uncle Pei next door is already weighing the goods there.

Although so much goods have been sorted, it is not so fast to weigh, unload and settle the accounts.

They went ashore at six or seven in the morning, and it was already past nine o'clock when they weighed the goods and got paid.

All settlements are in cash, so no matter who you exchange it with, you don't owe any debt.

His entire boatload of about 11 jin of plum fish had a net weight of about 110 after weighing it and removing the weight of the baskets. Lao Hai weighed 820 jin and sent it over. The agreed price was 5 cents, and the final price turned out to be 1 yuan.

剩下的60，820斤称给隔壁了，1毛7分钱，总价是10339块4毛钱。

The quantity is so large, and a difference of one cent will result in a difference of 600 yuan. No wonder a bunch of people next door just now insisted on not agreeing. If it was just a few hundred kilograms, the difference of one or two cents would not be such a big problem. The key is that the difference of tens of thousands of kilograms is huge.

But this also shows that the profit in the middle should be considerable.

The family members will definitely not lose money. It is definitely not just because of their family relationship. They must also want to do this business and open up the sales market, so they are very sincere and make a big concession. They will definitely make a profit.

After all, the retail price of this fish is about fifty or sixty cents, and they certainly don’t have many channels.

He made 19 yuan from whitebait alone, and 339 yuan from great white sharks. He also made more than 4 yuan from the goods he trawled all day yesterday, so the total amount was over 240 yuan.

The cloth bag that Ye Yaodong often carried was filled to the brim with money. It was overflowing and could not hold any more money, so he took off his coat and cotton-padded jacket to use it to bag the money.

Too much money.

This amount was more than what he earned in a year. He grinned like a fool, and Mr. Ye and Mr. Pei beside him also looked at him with shining eyes.

Pei's father had less goods, so he had already weighed them and received the payment, and was just waiting for him to finish his work and get on board together.

"I suggest you just take the money and sail back home first. With so much cargo, some people can roughly estimate how much it can be sold for at a glance."

Ye Yaodong was holding something heavy in his arms, and he panicked a little when he heard the words. The excitement he had at the beginning was gone.

Father Ye and Father Pei looked at each other, their smiles disappeared from their faces, and they couldn't help but start to worry.

This is an unimaginable amount of money. Not to mention 2 yuan, even 2000 yuan can buy several lives.

"How far is the nearest bank?"

"It's far away, and it's even harder to say on the way to the bank. Let's just sail back. And you'd better be careful on the way back."

His heart sank again instantly.

Damn, making too much money in public is not a good thing.

If I had known earlier, I would have brought all of them back to the village. However, Ah Cai surely cannot eat so much, so we still have to go to Dagang.

"I see. Thank you very much. I'll go back to my hometown with you to pay respect to my ancestors and look for them when I have the chance."

"Ah."

After they had weighed the goods, the vacated baskets had been moved back to the boat by the boatmen one after another. Now all they had to do was get people on board, but when he looked at the people outside who were looking at the goods, he saw everyone as a robber, and everyone as someone who wanted to murder him.

He pulled Pei's father and Ye's father to stand in the corner.

"Dad, Uncle Pei, let's just go back. I don't think anyone looks like a good person now."

Father Ye also frowned, his face full of worry, "Me too, everyone seems to be rushing over to rob us. We sold too much money at once, and this dock is full of all kinds of people. We are not familiar with this place, and it's the provincial capital. Big places must be more chaotic, with all kinds of people."

Father Pei frowned and said nothing, just thinking.

Although he made a lot of money this time, nearly 3000 yuan, which was much better than before, he had only been out for one day, and the round-trip gas cost was not small. The last time he was out, he only went back after three days.

If they had been out for three or four days, he would have gone back with them without saying anything. But they just came out yesterday and are going back today...

But if they separated, he was a little worried about what might happen at sea.

After all, the sea is a lawless place, and they have just made a lot of money. The dock is a mixed crowd, and it is probably seen by people with bad intentions. There is no guarantee that some people will not take risks.

Father Ye looked at it and said, "How about we go back first? You drive the boat and continue fishing?"

"No, let's go back together, uncle. We're going in and out together. With such a large amount of goods, no one will let go. Anyway, we've made money this time, so losing some gas money is nothing. Safety comes first."

Ye Yaodong persuaded him, saying that even if he felt bad about the gas money, it was not as important as his life. Besides, he had made some money. The 1 kilograms of mullet that Uncle Pei had hauled were sold for nearly 2000 yuan.

"The two boats go in and out together for a good look-out. If someone has any ideas, they have to think about it. If we separate, they might attack us one by one, which is dangerous. We can make money later. It doesn't matter if we spend a little time today. We can go back today, take a day off, and come out again tomorrow."

Father Ye also nodded and said, "Yes, it would be worse if we were separated. Let's go back together first, take a day off, and go out to sea tomorrow. It will be safer."

"Okay, let's go back together. We can have two boats together to provide support. I also have three guns on my boat."

"Okay, let's go back together."

After agreeing, the three of them walked out together. There were still a few of their boatmen waiting outside. They were communicating with the people around them in their native dialect and kept gesticulating. They were talking about the current trawling situation, but it was not known whether those people understood them or not.

After the three of them walked out, they shouted, stopping them and asking them to hurry up and follow.

Ye Yaodong was also holding a large pile of money tightly in his arms. He looked around vigilantly, feeling that all the eyes were staring at him with ill intentions.

Everyone walked quickly. The purchasing point was originally near the shore, but there were too many people gathered around. They had just taken a few steps when they felt someone bumping into them.

In an instant, the crowd became agitated again. Some people rushed around and deliberately pushed some of the people around them towards them. The scene suddenly became chaotic.

Both Ye's father and Pei's father turned pale.

Ye Yaodong also lowered his voice nervously and shouted, "Run."

While shouting, he pushed the crowd away and ran away. After all, a lot of money was on him, while the others were better off.

He ran straight onto the boat. The boatmen on board were standing on the deck, looking at the commotion on the shore with surprise on their faces.

The people behind also arrived late and climbed onto the boat in a disheveled state.

Ye Yaodong saw that his father's cotton-padded jacket had two big tears in it, and cotton had leaked out from the pockets on both sides. The two boatmen following behind were also covered in dirt.

"What happened? Did you fall?"

"I was pushed and fell, but luckily the owner of the purchasing point came out with some people and surrounded the crowd, so we were able to get on the boat."

"Why is there such confusion all of a sudden?"

"Did you fall anywhere? Dad, go and drive the boat first."

Father Ye patted his chest with lingering fear, glanced at the shore, and hurried to start the boat.

Chaos broke out in broad daylight. Even though there were many people at the dock, it couldn't have happened so suddenly. It must have been intentional and man-made.

Ye Yaodong asked the boatman and found out that he was not injured anywhere. At most he fell and was a little dirty, but it was nothing serious.

He looked at the Harvest, which was holding up a bamboo pole and preparing to sail away from the shore, and said, "Uncle, are you all right?"

"It's okay, everything is fine, everyone is here, we have to leave quickly."

"Well, let's go now."

This time, no one hesitated anymore.

We had just walked out of the purchasing point and this happened while we were still at the dock. There is no guarantee that there won’t be any problems at sea.

The boatmen guarding the boat didn't know what was going on at first, but they understood after they got on board. Everyone was nervous, fearing that something might happen.

Money can be said to be the source of all evil.

Ye Yaodong watched as the boat had already started, while there was still chaos, noise and constant cursing on the shore. He felt relieved a little and ran to the cabin to hide all the money in the iron box under the bed and locked it.

Fortunately, when I asked someone to weld it, I made it a little bigger so it was big enough to fit.

After everything was put away, he came out to the deck and looked at the shore. The boat had already sailed a short distance away. There were only small boats on the sea around him. He felt relieved temporarily.

The boatmen on the boat were still talking there, and when they saw him come out, they immediately surrounded him.

"Adong, should we continue fishing or go home first?"

"We just sold so much goods at the dock. Some people should be able to guess how much money we made..."

“That’s why I was confused when I first landed…”

Everyone was a little worried.

"Don't worry too much. Let's go back now. I've already made arrangements with Uncle Pei. We'll go back on two boats together, so we can have someone to take care of us on the way."

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

"That's good."

"It's also a mistake to make too much money all at once..."

"Luckily it's not at night. If it were evening, there would be more people at the dock..."

"There are quite a few people in the morning, but it's not that bad. It's not that bad in the evening. It would be more chaotic in the evening, with all kinds of people. It's better in the morning."

"I just fell down and got stepped on a few times. Luckily the boss brought some people out to maintain it. It's now a little quieter and not that chaotic anymore."

"Where are the good guys..."

"He is said to be a relative of Adong and his father, right? The goods sold to him are also slightly more expensive than those sold next door."

"It's better to trust our own people. I didn't expect to meet one of our own people even though we're so far away. So Grandpa Dong was from the provincial capital before? That's amazing. So all our relatives will be from the provincial capital in the future?"

"I don't know. My family is from Nanzhu County. I don't know how many years my grandfather has been dead. He ran away before he got married. If I want to find relatives, I can only go back to my hometown and look up the family tree. My father just told that Lao Hai my grandfather's name and asked him to help look at the family tree when he returns to his hometown."

His father is just bored and thinks there are not enough relatives in the family.

If it were him, what else would he be looking for?
Decades have passed and people have turned into dust. Why bother looking for relatives? If a few bad relatives show up, it will cause trouble for you.

I don’t know if Lao Hai understood his father’s polite words, but don’t take it seriously.

"As the old saying goes, fallen leaves return to their roots. Fortunately, your family has started to build a tomb, so it won't be left outside forever. There is a place to bury it properly."

Ye Yaodong nodded seriously.

Returning to one's hometown is probably the wish of all the elderly. If they die outside and cannot go back to their hometown, they must be buried properly in a tomb.

Otherwise, he would have died with his eyes open. No wonder his uncle had a nightmare immediately after he returned and ran to him with a pale face the next day.

Maybe there really are spirits in heaven watching us from there?
He shuddered suddenly.

It’s okay, he’s his biological grandfather. Grandma would talk to him every day and ask him to bless him. There’s nothing to be afraid of.

Everyone changed the topic and talked about other things.

We all slept very well last night, and now early in the morning, everyone was full of energy. No one was ready to go back to the cabin to lie down, but stood on the deck to chat and keep an eye on the sea. After all, they had just left the shore not long ago, and the fishing boat was moving slowly.

But whatever you fear, will come true.

Less than 10 minutes after the fishing boat left the shore, two boats appeared on the sea from nowhere. Although they were a certain distance away from them, everyone was a little suspicious.

Now, everyone I see seems to have bad intentions.

Ye Yaodong also became alert. After watching for a few minutes, he felt that the two fishing boats were moving in the same direction as them.

Everyone on the boat looked at the two boats behind them.

"Those two boats are going in the same direction as us..."

"They also emerged from some corner of the provincial capital's dock. Not long after we came out, they also appeared on the sea."

"What should we do? Is he following us?"

"Could it be that they just refueled and refilled their tanks with ice, and are preparing to go out to sea for fishing?"

"It's possible. Don't be afraid anyway. We also have two boats with more than a dozen people on board. We also have weapons in our hands. Be careful and keep an eye on it." Ye Yaodong said soothingly and stared at it for a while.

Their fishing boat was heading rapidly towards the sea, and the fishing boat behind them was also maintaining the same direction, following behind them without changing direction.

After hesitating for a moment, he climbed directly up to the wheelhouse and stood on it to take a closer look.

Father Ye also opened the cockpit and shouted to him, "Dongzi, there are two boats behind us that seem to be following us."

"I know. We found it too. So I climbed up and stood on a high place to take a closer look. You take out the guns in the cockpit and give them to me."

Father Ye was nervous. "Are you saying that these two boats are going to rob us?"

"No, not necessarily. It's possible that they just finished adding ice and oil and are preparing to go out to sea for fishing. Who knows, they may not be following us if they are heading in this direction. Hold the gun in your hand first, just in case."

"Okay, okay... Just now your uncle Pei called me and told me to tell you to keep an eye on these two ships and be alert. I was just about to go out and tell you."

Father Ye talked to him while searching for the gun.

Ye Yaodong looked into the distance and couldn't help but feel sorry that he hadn't got the telescope yet. He didn't know where Lin Ji Shang had died and there had been no news for a long time.

Neither his caviar nor his telescope had given any definite answer.

If I had a telescope at this time, I could see more clearly. I don’t know how many people are on the other ship. They have just put out to sea, so they must be standing on the deck.

Damn, I’ve been reborn for more than two years. I’m not going to get into a bloody fight at this time, am I?

He took the four guns handed over by his father. There were originally six guns, and he left two on the tractor to ensure their safety while delivering the goods, and took the rest on the boat.

Not knowing the other party's situation, he did not immediately take the gun and hand it to others, but kept it in his own hand first.

However, he saw that the other party's fishing boat seemed to be getting closer and closer. The boat didn't look very big, but it had enough power. They were obviously moving at full speed there, but the distance between them was not widening, but shortening instead.

Normally, a fishing boat of that size should not have too much horsepower. After all, the greater the horsepower, the more expensive the machine.

It feels like there is something fishy going on.

The two fishing boats continued to move forward, and the two fishing boats behind them followed closely and were reluctant to close the distance.

At this time, we were already in the middle of the sea. We could only see some isolated islands, and the shore of the provincial capital had shrunk to the size of a thumb. An ominous premonition filled everyone's heart.

The sailors on the deck all looked unhappy. They had already started cursing and looked a little excited.

Ye Yaodong also told his father to drive forward at full speed, and he would go down to take a look and distribute the guns to other people so that they could be prepared early.

Everyone saw him coming down with guns, and so many of them, which made them feel a little safer, but they also became nervous.

"Adong, are those two boats really coming for us?"

"The distance is getting closer and closer. Although it's a little slow, it's definitely getting closer. It looks like it will catch up with us sooner or later."

"Well, that ship is not as big as ours. It doesn't look that big, but it has so much horsepower. They must have invested a lot of money in it. They might be a habitual criminal who specializes in this kind of interception at sea." Ye Yaodong analyzed clearly.

"It's possible. Otherwise, a fishing boat of this size wouldn't be that fast. Our boat is considered fast because we have to sail in the open sea."

"Just keep watching. We have several guns in our hands, as well as the Harvest. We are not afraid of them. We have plenty of ammunition."

Damn it, if we really fight, I will make them suffer a lot and won’t let them have an easy time.

Father Ye stepped on the horsepower and drove side by side with the Harvest. There was no cargo on the two ships, so they were running farther and faster. The distance that had just been shortened was suddenly widened a little again, but it was slowly shrinking again after a while.

The two boats were running side by side at a close distance, and the boatmen on both sides saw that the other side had guns in their hands, so they both knew what was going on.

At this time they were all feeling lucky. Fortunately, they had always been operating with two ships, and only the Harvest ship ran away last time. Fortunately, the Harvest ship had not made a lot of money and was exposed at that time, otherwise with two ships over there, they might really be doomed.

But I don’t know how many people are on those two ships?
Everyone was concentrating on watching the fishing boat following behind them.

After sailing for about half an hour, they finally saw the moving heads on the boat clearly.

"Fuck..."

"Adong... there are so many heads on that boat..."

"There are more than a dozen of them, at least twenty on the two boats. They are definitely not out fishing. We can't let this go easily. Hold your guns. If they dare to get close, don't worry about anything else and just shoot at the boats. Don't be afraid of wasting bullets. You've all been trained by the militia, so you know how to use them, right? Your accuracy should be good enough, right?"

"Don't worry. Although I haven't touched it for a few years, it's so big that I can still aim accurately." A boatman spat on his hands and rubbed them, then he clenched the gun and said fiercely.

Ye Yaodong nodded, "If you are within the shooting range, just shoot. I'll leave you a box of bullets. Remember to hide. If you don't have a gun, just squat down and stand in the aisle. This way you won't be afraid of being shot at from the other side. If you squat down, you will be covered on both sides. There must be a gun on the other side. Don't expose yourself, otherwise you will become a target."

"know."

"Kill him if you want. It doesn't matter on this sea."

"Ah."

Seeing the ship getting closer and closer, everyone became more alert.

Ye Yaodong climbed up to the wheelhouse again with concern. He handed the gun to his father and said, "You go downstairs and shoot later. Shoot here and kill them."

"Are you sure you came here for us?"

"Almost. There were more than a dozen strong men on that boat. The boat was so small, how could so many people be needed to go out to sea? Moreover, they were following us the whole time, without even changing direction, and they kept speeding up. We couldn't get rid of them. How could such a small trawler have such a large horsepower?"

"That ship has more horsepower than ours, so it must be often used to chase robbers at sea. And the two ships have been running side by side, similar to our two ships, so they are definitely not good people."

After Ye's father cursed fiercely, he took the gun and gave up his position.

"Then take it easy and don't damage the boat."

"Don't be afraid, just play harder."

Anyway, the Harvest is there. The old man feels sad, but he doesn’t. Anyway, he has already made enough money from the wave in the morning.

After Ye Yaodong took over the ship, he immediately connected to the Harvest.

"Uncle Pei?"

"It's me, Adong. How many guns are there on your boat?"

"4!"

"That should be enough. I'll go and tell them. I'll do it as soon as they get close."

There is no need to ask this question at all. Normal fishing boats will not chase after other fishing boats, and every fishing boat will raise a flag in advance to warn others as soon as it approaches, so as to avoid misunderstanding.

In this kind of situation, anyone who sees it knows what is going on, and no one is a fool.

Just do it and that's it.

When Ye Yaodong listened to what Pei's father said, his blood rushed to his head and he became excited.

"Well, I've just told you, if they come within range, just shoot them, don't be stingy with your bullets. And Uncle Pei, if they get close, I'll turn around and ram them hard, so just keep your boat at a distance and keep an eye on them."

"Ah good."

The two boats continued to move forward, but the people on board were already prepared. They all hid in the aisles, two on each side and three on the other side.

Ye Yaodong kept an eye on the distance between the two ships. Seeing a large group of people on the other side standing on the deck fearlessly, he didn't know whether they were showing off their numbers or trying to put pressure on them.

After the distance was shortened again, he slapped the control panel fiercely, pushed open the hatch and went out, shouting to the people below, "Prepare to shoot."

After shouting, he immediately closed the hatch again, continued to operate, looked forward, and was ready to strike back if the distance was shortened again.

If you want to deal with them, you have to make them afraid, otherwise people will think they are cowards.

He just didn't believe that his boat would lose to the other side's small wooden boat that was used for offshore trawling.

Not long after he finished shouting, the first gunshot was heard from his boat, and the other side's crowd was visibly panicked.

I don't know if it hit the target or not. Probably not, because the enemies who were originally all standing on the deck were now hiding around.

But they were towing the fishing boat which was more than ten meters long, the cabin was only a tiny bit big, and there were more than a dozen people on board, so how could it be easy to hide?
What's more, they came out to rob. How could they rob while hiding in the cabin?

So, after a while, he saw people crowding into the cabin, but all of a sudden they all ran out, pushing and shoving on the deck, and then they all stood outside the cabin, trying to use the cabin to block the view.

"Damn it, is that it? I thought he was fearless, but he's actually robbing people at sea."

Ye Yaodong looked at them in panic, and then felt a little relieved.

After the first gunshot, the distance between them was getting closer again.

"Uncle, I'm going to turn around."

"Now?"

"Yes, I just closed the distance and heard a gunshot. They must have a gun, but they haven't fired yet. I will just drive over and hit them and give them a hard time."

Pre-emptive strike.

"Then be careful."

"Ah."

Before turning around, Ye Yaodong went out and opened the hatch a little, then hid behind it to serve as a shield so as not to be targeted by the enemy by standing there.

He shouted loudly, "I'm going to turn around and run over. Remember to shoot! Fire a few more shots to scare them to death! Did you hear me?"

To make a long story short, he shouted twice briefly and returned to the cockpit only after hearing the reply.

When he slowed down and made a big turn, the other party also fired a shot, which gave him the chance to turn and avoid it.

The other party did not expect that he would turn suddenly, and did not know what to do for a moment. The two boats did not know whether they should slow down or not, and there was no way to communicate at this time, so the two boats behind continued to accelerate forward.

However, when he turned around, the enemy's gunfire continued, all directed at his boat.

After a few loud bangs, it seemed like the other party had three or four guns in his hands. I didn't know if he had fired any more guns.

Ye Yaodong didn't care. After turning around, he increased the horsepower to maximum and rushed forward.

The boatmen who were squatting there popped their heads out and fired several shots when the boat was about to hit.

　I know you will definitely scold me again...
