After a busy day, both the Lou family and his son had a lot of experience.
Lou Jianguo said: "I heard from the cook that the owner of this salvage boat was previously the director of a marine institute in Yupu. He took a leave of absence without pay and went to work. He didn't eat the stable public food and invested tens of millions in it."
Going to the sea... Hey, it's not just going to the sea, but what good things can be found in the sea? Isn't it just some fish, shrimps, crabs and shells? The key point is that this boat is not for fishing. What is it called a salvage boat? It is said to be specially used to salvage sunken ships. What do you think?
How much profit can be made by salvaging sunken ships? How many ships can be sunk in a year... A broken fishing boat like ours will sink if it sinks. Who will spend the time and money to salvage it? It will probably be a pile of scrap metal...
...Well, ours is still a pile of broken wood..."
Lou Wenhua didn’t study for nothing in technical secondary school, and he knew a little bit about shipwrecks: “Dad, you are mistaken. What they want to salvage is not a broken fishing boat like ours, but a treasure ship that sank at the bottom of the sea thousands of years ago. By the way,
Help the government salvage cargo ships and fishing boats in nearby waters."
"That's even more outrageous. Who can be sure of finding and fishing things in the deep sea?" Lou Jianguo shook his head in disapproval, "I estimate that after working for a few years, he will return to the Institute of Oceanology, and he will definitely be the director.
Stable and relaxing!”
Lou Wenhua had some ideas: "Dad, you see, I will graduate from technical secondary school next year. With my major, I can only work as a maintenance worker in a factory. How about asking them if they can recruit seamen? How about going to sea with them?"
?I quite like working on the ship."
"You're crazy!" Lou Jianguo stared, "Do you think your mother can agree? What kind of future can a good technical secondary school student go to work as a boatman on a private ship? Isn't the four years of technical secondary school in vain?"
"Why is this so useless? The director of the Institute of Oceanography resigned and went to sea!" Lou Wenhua muttered unconvincingly, "Besides, our lives were saved by others. Without their boat, we would have sunk into the sea long ago.
It’s time to feed the fish. If my mother knew about this, she would have agreed to allow me to come and work on the ship. Even if I don’t get paid, I would work for nothing!”
"..." Lou Jianguo choked and hummed for a while, "One code is another code. The life-saving grace must be repaid, but how can you joke about your future?"
Lou Wenhua disagrees with his father's point of view.
In the past, technical secondary school graduates were guaranteed allocation, and those assigned to some enterprises and institutions were relatively stable. But now that the country no longer guarantees allocation for college graduates, who are mere technical secondary school students? Graduation is almost equal to unemployment. There may be opportunities for some majors.
It was too difficult for him to enter the establishment for mechanical maintenance. The best he could do was enter a factory workshop and become a mechanic.
He is also a mechanic, but he would rather work on a salvage boat. Thinking about it this way: Four years of technical secondary school study was not in vain!
But his father didn't agree, so he had to sneak away and ask Mr. Fu.
It's not that he recognized the wrong person - he mistook Mr. Fu for the owner of the ship. Rather, among these people, Mr. Fu seems to be the most talkative.
Mr. Fu was happy when he heard this question. He turned to Lu Chixiao and said, "Brother Xiao, don't you want to recruit a few more seamen? Here, here comes a self-recommended man."
Lu Chixiao was looking at the drawings. Hearing this, he looked up and saw that it was Lou Wenhua. He knew that he had good water skills. He had been helping rescue people and carry things in the past two days. He had really worked hard, so he nodded: "Okay. The treatment..."
As soon as he said these two words, Lou Wenhua jumped up happily: "As long as you can come! You can take care of your treatment! I'll be satisfied if you take care of your food and shelter!"
As soon as these words came out, Lu Chixiao also laughed.
Mr. Fu joked: "If you are satisfied, your parents may not be satisfied! They are still thinking of finding a wife for you! How can you not save more salary!"
Lou Wenhua scratched his head and laughed.
Lou Jianguo was cooking authentic Haicheng dishes for his savior in the kitchen. Little did he know that his brat had already volunteered to work on a salvage ship before he graduated!
When she found out, the mother-in-law supported her son's decision overwhelmingly, leaving him as an old man with no authority at all.
…
Two days later, the typhoon passed through, and large ships, like salvage ships that resisted Taiwan and went to sea, began to return to Hong Kong one after another.
Everyone was so excited to be able to go home after escaping the disaster. They couldn't even stay in the cabin. Everyone stood on the deck and chatted.
From a distance, I saw a crowd of people crowding the pier, and I couldn't help but feel puzzled.
"What happened?"
Lou Jianguo and his son were also standing on the deck, leaning on the railing and joining in the fun.
"Could it be that the typhoon swept away people? The wind was really strong yesterday!"
"It's possible. I remember that several years ago...about ten years ago, someone in your Yupu area was swept away." Lou Jianguo said to Mr. Fu.
Mr. Fu snickered in his heart: The son-in-law of the person who was swept away is right in front of you right now.
"Dad! Dad!" Lou Wenhua suddenly tugged at his father's clothes, "I saw mom! Mom is also in the crowd!"
"What? Your mother is here too?"
"Not only your mother-in-law, but my mother-in-law is here too!" The fishing boat owner, who was also a man who was lost at sea, patted him on the shoulder, "Face it, Old Lou, we can't hide it!"
Lou Jianguo: "..."
He had no intention of hiding it! How could he hide the fact that his boat was capsized by a wave?
It would be great to be able to come back alive. You can keep the green hills and don’t have to worry about running out of firewood. You can still rebuild your food if it becomes heavy! As long as you are alive, there are endless possibilities.
If Mr. Fu knew Lou Jianguo's psychological activities at this moment, he would definitely laugh: Is this brainwashing successful?
The father and son were not willing to throw away a boat full of catches before, but after being brainwashed by him, they could actually think so?
Qi Hui was squeezed among a group of sailors, chewing the addictive fresh squid shreds and happily watching this scene of family reunion.
The shredded squid was given to him by Lu Chixiao.
Ever since he suspected his identity, Mr. Lu changed his strategy: he started to leak some snacks to him intentionally or unintentionally. No matter whether he was a friend or an enemy, he should first get him into his own camp.
Those waiting at the pier were basically small and medium-sized fishing boats that had not been able to enter the harbor to take shelter before the typhoon hit, as well as family members of large ships that followed the rules of the pier and went to sea to fight against the typhoon.
The family members of the big boat are okay. After all, every year when a typhoon comes, they have to go out to sea to hide for a few days. If they stay in the harbor and a big wave hits, the boat will sway this way and that, knocking over the small and medium-sized fishing boats on the shore, the loss will be huge.
Those who are most worried are the families of the small fishing boats.
Logically speaking, we should make it back safely before the typhoon passes through. If we fail to make it back, the risk will be greater. No one can say whether we can survive the strong winds and waves.
As soon as the typhoon passed, the family members rushed to the pier with their hearts in their hands. Every time they saw a ship sailing into the port, no matter whose family it was, they clapped as hard as they could, as if the harder they clapped, the next ship entering the port would be theirs.
of.
The family members who recognized their own boat were so excited that they struggled to squeeze out of the crowd and waved to the people on the boat.
