1983 Small Island, Starting From a Large Farmer

Chapter 47 Something big happened

 After being called up by my third uncle.

 Li Duoyu completely lost sleep.

 He sat on the stone bar in the yard and smoked a cigarette.

 The moon is very round tonight.

 The sea surface near Dandan Island glows with a faint silver light.

 And further out on the sea.

A large number of searchlights appeared. From a distance, they looked like sharp swords, cutting through the entire night.

Li Zhengfa, who had not gone far, saw the searchlight suddenly appearing on the sea. His hands could not help but tremble, his legs were so weak that he could not walk, and he murmured:

 “It’s over, it’s over now.”

Seeing him like this, Zhou Meiying asked nervously: "What's wrong with you? What's the end?"

Li Zhengfa looked at the woman in front of him and suddenly became furious: "It's all because you doted on that **** too much. If I had known that I would just break his leg that day, there wouldn't be such a bad thing like today."

Zhou Meiying said anxiously: "There is something wrong with you. What are you scolding me for? Instead, ask me what happened."

Li Zhengfa pointed to the searchlights on the sea: "Those lights are all used to catch smugglers. If Yu Jun is caught, he will be arrested and put in jail."

 Hear the word "jail".

Zhou Meiying was stunned: "Zhengfa, please stop talking nonsense."

Li Zhengfa smiled sadly.

Immediately afterwards, he suddenly remembered what Li Duoyu had just said to him, and his whole body instantly felt cold from head to toe, feeling as if the matter was not over yet.

At this moment, Dandan Island is quiet and peaceful.

 And just on the sea not far away.

　　It has already been a state of affairs.

 Some fishing boats targeted by anti-smuggling ships resorted to cutting off their tails to survive, and threw the imported goods they had exchanged for Yuan Datou and cultural relics directly on the sea.

 Hope to attract the attention of anti-smuggling ships.

 Some simply abandoned the ship and escaped in small boats, but they were always caught up.

Agui was in the cabin, looking at more than 40 boxes of electrical appliances, laughing so hard that he couldn't close his mouth.

 There is a TV, a refrigerator, a washing machine, and many three-purpose machines.

He really didn't expect that after seeing the two bronzes, the people on Hong Kong Island directly offered him tens of thousands of dollars to replace a whole boatload of electrical appliances.

He also said it was the Western Han Dynasty, what a lie.

He couldn't understand it anyway, but he understood one thing. These things buried underground were much more valuable than Yuan Datou.

Agui looked at the warehouse full of electrical appliances.

I was also very envious. In this trip, more than half of the electrical appliances were Xiaohei's, and the remaining half belonged to him, Li Yujun and Tugou.

If they were all sold, Xiao Hei, who had not even made a few trips with him, would be a household worth ten thousand yuan. It would be a lie to say that he was not jealous.

 At this time.

The fishing boat swayed, and its speed was obviously much slower, as if it was turning around. Agui and Xiaohei, who realized something was wrong, quickly ran to the deck to check the situation.

As a result, I found that the sea in front of me was densely packed with anti-smuggling boats with searchlights.

Xiao Hei was completely panicked.

"Brother Gui, why are there so many anti-smuggling ships? Brother Shui said there will be no problem in these two days. You can't harm me. All my belongings are here."

Agui's face instantly turned as dark as the bottom of a pot. This was the first time he encountered this situation, and he saw that Xiaohei wanted to blame him.

 He said angrily:

 “You **** ask me, who am I going to ask?”

And Xiao Hei was as anxious as an ant on a hot pot, scolding Li Yujun who was driving the boat: "Can't you drive faster?"

Li Yujun was completely stunned. Seeing so many anti-smuggling boats, he immediately wanted to turn around and run away.

 But he knew best about his fishing boat. The tugboat's fastest speed was only eight knots, and those anti-smuggling boats could reach at least fifteen knots, so they couldn't escape at all.

What he is most worried about now is that if the ship is impounded, his father will really break his legs.

“Sir, you should drive faster.”

 “This is already the fastest.”

"Holy shit, I'm just out of my mind, so I found this broken ship like yours." Chen Wenchao, who had the least cargo in the whole ship, was so frightened that his hands and feet were shaking unconsciously. He only had a few electrical appliances.

And he has no parents, only a grandma with handicapped legs and feet. If he is caught, how will his grandma live? There is no need to take the risk of being arrested and jailed.

He tried to suggest to everyone: "How about we throw everything into the sea, and when the anti-smuggling ship comes, they will say that we are fishing."

Xiao Hei jumped to his feet and cursed: "You didn't invest a few dollars, so of course you don't feel bad. This is my entire family property."

 The anti-smuggling boat got closer and closer.

 They could even hear each other clearly, shouting through loudspeakers:

“This is the Lianjiang County Anti-Smuggling Team. The fishing boat in front of you, please stop immediately for inspection.”

Li Yujun was completely frightened. He was the youngest here. He had just turned twenty years old. He had no idea what to do and asked Agui:

“Brother Gui, what should we do now? They are already here.”

Agui's face was gloomy, he gritted his teeth and said:

 “Drive straight on, don’t stop, hit it.”

Before dawn.

At the dock of Dandan Island, a cargo ship came back that ran away before it had time to trade.

Li Zhengfa, who had been waiting at the dock all night, saw a fishing boat coming back and quickly ran over to ask the boss of the boat about the situation.

“Brother Zhou, what’s going on tonight?”

The boss of the ship glanced at Li Zhengfa, shook his head and sighed: "What else can happen? It's all over. This time the country is serious."

 “Can you tell me clearly, what is all over?”

 “That is, they were all captured.”

Li Zhengfa asked anxiously: "Then have you seen my ship?"

The boss of the boat shook his head and smiled bitterly: "Li Laosan, you won't let your son sail out on your boat, right? If that happens, don't even think about it. Your boat is so big, it will definitely be targeted."

 “Ouch”

Zhou Meiying sighed and almost fainted.

 After dawn, many villagers gathered around the pier. Those whose families had gone to run goods were all waiting on the pier.

 They all hope for a miracle to happen.

 Hope it’s just a false alarm.

 However, they waited for a very long time and did not see the fishing boats that went to take away the goods come back. Everyone was very nervous.

 At this time.

A sharp-eyed boy pointed to the sea not far away and shouted: "Look, there seems to be someone swimming there."

Following the direction pointed by the child, everyone did see a man swimming back. Seeing that he was swimming very slowly, a fisherman hurriedly rocked a small sampan to help him.

 The result, pull it up to take a look.

 It is the native dog Chen Wenchao.

When the person reached the shore, he had no strength left. He collapsed on the shore, gasping for air, and his face was as white as paper.

When he saw his grandma, his lips trembled and he said, "Grandma, I swam back."

When Chen Wenchao's grandma saw him, tears were already covering her face: "You are such a pretty girl, why do you love to toss so much?"

In the crowd, Agui’s wife Zhang Meiying was so nervous that her whole body was shaking. After learning that the person who came back from the swim was Chen Wenchao, she squeezed through the crowd:

 “Old dog, where is my Agui?”

Chen Wenchao, who was severely exhausted, said with difficulty: "I don't know. He sailed the boat to hit the smuggling ship. I was so scared that I jumped into the sea."

Li Zhengfa on the side learned that Tugou and Agui were in the same group, and he quickly asked: "Are you sailing my boat?"

 “Yes.” Chen Wenchao nodded hard.

Li Zhengfa was stunned and waited all night, but finally received the bad news. Zhou Meiying, who learned the news, collapsed on the ground.

 This time.

 Li Duoyu did not go to the pier to watch.

Instead, she was listening to the weather forecast at home and reading yesterday's newspaper. Chen Huiying, who had just returned from the dock, eagerly held his hand.

“Let’s go, first come with me to worship at Mazu Temple.”
