Although Chen Dong was very busy, he was in a very good mood. Naturally, he was scolded for calling someone in the middle of the night, but he responded with a smile.

The boatmen were busy unloading the cargo.

The family members gradually calmed down and they all sat aside and started chatting.

Zhao Qinze was pulled to the door of Lao Jin's house by Chen's father. Lao Jin moved a few chairs from the store and boiled water to make tea for them immediately.

The tea was not ready yet when Yu Fake and Dayu came over.

"How did you escape?" Father Chen asked when he saw several grown men around.

Zhao Qin just gave a rough explanation, so now he had to explain it in more detail.

"We ran a little far this time and came across an island. We rested around the island for three days and were about to come back when we encountered a tornado.

Now that I think about it, it was thanks to the tornado that we were forced back to the island, otherwise we would not have been able to escape the tsunami after the earthquake…"

It took Zhao Qin nearly 20 minutes to tell the whole story.

Father Chen sighed, "It's too dangerous."

Zhao Anguo calmed down now and took a sip of water. "Talk to your eldest brother about leaving one person behind and not getting on board."

Given the nature of his job, Zhao Qin would definitely be the one not to board the ship, but as a father, he couldn't say that.

"Dad, fishing is risky. Even our own people are unwilling to board the boat. Who will be willing to follow us in the future? If we really stop fishing, I, your son, will have no way out."

Zhao Anguo was speechless, and after a moment he sighed. His son was right.

Even though the youngest son is rich now and has a big business, if he gets unlucky, he will go bankrupt in a few months or half a year.

But as long as the family's boat is still there, there will be a way out with stable income.

Zhao Qin stopped talking to the two old men and looked at Yu Liu. "Ake, when did you get here?"

"I haven't even celebrated the Little New Year yet, but I rushed here and will be back tomorrow."

Zhao Qin did not dissuade him. Tomorrow is the 27th, and A Ke has to go back to celebrate the New Year. He looked at Dayu again, "Are uncle and aunt here?"

Dayu knew how dangerous his trip was, so she wouldn't blame him. "Let Erpeng pick him up tomorrow. Oh, Qin, call the leader. The town, county, and city have organized search and rescue boats."

"They know it too?"

"You think you are still the little fisherman who ignored everyone else, right?" He is still unhappy.

Zhao Qin held out his hand, and Dayu was puzzled, "What for?"

"My phone. I lost it somewhere long ago."

Zhao Anguo took out his cell phone and took a look. It still had power, so he handed it to him. "Use mine. It has most of the leaders' phone numbers."

After finishing the water in the cup in front of him, Zhao Qin walked aside to make a phone call.

After thinking about it, I decided to call Lao Sun first, "Lao Zhao, is there any news about Aqin?"

"I am the leader, Qin."

The person on the other end of the line was visibly stunned for a moment, and then a loud voice exclaimed, "Oh my God, you're finally back. If you hadn't come back, I would have blown up my boss's phone."

"Just to let you know that you are safe. Will you notify the county?"

"Okay, okay, I'll call the county now. When will you call back?"

"We have just docked. Both ships are intact and all crew members are safe."

"Great, great, great news."

After hanging up the phone, Zhao Qin called Fu Su again. When he heard it was him, Fu Su acted calmly, "Have a good rest. President Xu is waiting for you to come and wish him a happy new year."

"No, I just happened to bring a lot of seafood this time. I'll send some to the Municipal Party Committee canteen tomorrow."

"You, you, when I hear you say that, I know everything is fine. Okay, I'll wait for you tomorrow."

As soon as I hung up the phone, Wang Jiasheng ran over with a cell phone in his hand, "Aqin, it's Master's call."

"Why doesn't the old man take a rest at this time?"

As soon as I put it close to my ear, I heard the master's angry scolding, "With a disciple like you who is so troublesome, I'd better die sooner."

"Please don't scold me. I have good news to tell you after the New Year."

"Come on the ninth day after the New Year. The tenth day will be a good day."

Zhao Qin didn't understand what his master was going to do. Before he could ask, the other end said, "I'm going to sleep. Remember the ninth day."

Listening to the busy tone on the phone, Zhao Qin smiled. Alas, many people care about me. This feeling is quite good.

He returned the phone to Wang Jiasheng, "Brother Sheng, why are you here too?"

"We heard the news a little late at the processing plant. Aunt Wu ran to tell us. Your brother Jing and brother Yue are here and are helping to unload the goods."

"Dad, go back and rest, everything is fine."

Zhao Anguo stood up with his hands on his knees, and walked home first. He turned back after walking a few steps and said, "The boatman, you need to think about this."

"understood."

Father Chen also stood up and patted him on the arm. "Take a good rest tomorrow and prepare for the New Year."

Zhao Qin looked at Yu Fake again, who raised his hand and looked at his watch. "Can you arrange someone to take me to the provincial capital? I'll stay in the hotel over there and go back early tomorrow morning."

"I asked Erpeng to take me there. It just so happens that he's taking a flight to pick up my parents tomorrow afternoon." Dayu took out her cell phone, and the next moment she saw Erpeng wandering over.

"Wait a moment." Zhao Qin ran to the boat, picked out a few beautiful lapis lazuli pieces, and asked someone to catch a few large conches and put them in a convenient bag.

"The sea fish is not fresh anymore, so you can take these. I heard this snail is pretty good. Take it back and let Uncle Yu taste it. I picked up these stones from an island."

Erpeng took it on his own initiative, and Zhao Qin reminded him to drive slowly at night.

After sending Yu Fake away, Dayu waved his hand and said, "Tianqin has already had a day off today. Don't look for me tomorrow. I want to sleep for a day."

Zhao Qin smiled and watched him leave before returning to the dock to help.

At this time, two or three purchasing vehicles from the city have arrived, and more are coming one after another. Although it was notified at short notice, some buyers were caught off guard.

But it’s the end of the year, and if we can sell the goods tomorrow, we can make a lot of money.

"Brother Dong, let's give everyone a lower price on this item."

"Yeah, that's what I think too. It will also allow everyone to make more profit throughout the year."

As they were talking, Lao Jin stepped out of a car and said, "Ah Qin, you are so lucky to be young. It's good that you are back."

"It's not as dangerous at sea as you think." Zhao Qin replied casually.

"Oh, is this price wrong?" Lao Jin took the order from Chen Dong, looked at the price and asked.

"Boss Jin, Ah Qin and I were just discussing this. Thanks to you for taking care of our business this year, it's the end of the year now, so let's set the price for these two ships of sea goods."

"We didn't raise prices during the Chinese New Year, but you guys lowered them. No need to..."

Zhao Qin interrupted, "Boss Jin, let's stop being so hypocritical. By the way, is my Uncle Ye at home these two days?"

"I don't know the old chairman's schedule, but he is a traditional person. Although his son lives in the provincial capital, it is impossible for him to go to the provincial capital during the New Year. It must be his son who comes back."

"Okay, let's go see him tomorrow." Seeing Lao Jin, Zhao Qin realized that he had forgotten to give gifts to several people in the association.

I'll send it again tomorrow after things on the ship are dealt with.

The two ships of cargo were shipped out after they were busy until dawn. As for the stones, Wang Jiasheng and Liu Jing were responsible for transporting them all back to the processing plant.

"Aqin, say hello to the shipyard. I'll get the boat over there first. If there's no time before the New Year, ask them to repair it as soon as possible after the New Year." After the goods were ready, Lao Mao walked up to him and said.

"Don't bother. I called Lao Cai and he said he would arrange for someone to drive over."
