389. Chapter 389 Did you see the Poseidon?


Chapter 389 Did you meet Poseidon?

Shen Yi put away his playful thoughts and nodded seriously, "Tomorrow I will go to Mr. Lu to discuss it. Mr. Duan also has to hand over to Mr. Lu. It will probably take seven or eight days to leave. During the spring plowing period, Mr. Lu also has a lot of things on his hands. It's not a wise move for me to hand over the job. It's most likely going to have to wait until after the spring plowing.

It should be fine for me to go out for a while, but I'm afraid it will be difficult if it goes later."

"Sure! Let's go then!" Su Tai clenched her fists.

Hurry up and get dressed and go out to talk to Shen Ying.

Shen Yi became the county magistrate, so he must have a good celebration. Everyone is busy working in the fields, so this matter must be postponed.

The couple arranged things at home, told their four children to take care of themselves, and then left.

Shen Yi knew how to ride a horse, and the two of them rode in a simple carriage. It only took more than three days to get from Shenjiazhuang to the ice field. They did not dare to delay and crossed the ice field directly to Qiongzi, which took six days.

“So fast!” Su Tai looked at the vast sea around her and jumped up and shouted happily.

Shen Yi pulled him tightly, deeply afraid of the vast and boundless sea, "Daughter-in-law, can the boat you mentioned really withstand the wind and waves on the sea?"

He has been crossing the river for many years, and he can tell at a glance that the waves are unusual. No wonder many people in Qiongzi are killed in the sea every year.

Su Tai nodded wildly, "Husband, believe me, think about the seafood I made, the storm on the water is just a trivial matter."

Out of unconditional trust in his wife, Shen Yi felt relieved. Just as he turned around to hitch the carriage, a large fishing boat about twenty meters long and seven or eight meters wide appeared on the sea.

"Daughter-in-law, is this a fishing boat?" Shen Yi stared at the big guy in front of him in astonishment, which was as big as a courtyard. No wonder his wife said that the fishing boat can withstand the wind and waves on the sea.

Su Tai got on the fishing boat and waved to Shen Yi.

Shen Yi ran up without saying a word.

The boat was more stable than he expected. After only feeling it for a moment, his uneasy heart dropped.

"You come with me." Su Tai took Shen Yi to the cabin, pointed at a disk similar to a steering wheel and said: "This ship is so big, it requires manpower to move forward, but it only takes one person to do it. To operate, just keep turning the disk. The faster it turns, the faster the boat will run. If the speed slows down, the boat will stop.

In addition, this disc controls the direction. One person can operate two discs at the same time, but it is a little tiring.”

Men like these things the most. Shen Yi immediately tried to run it and found that the boat was really good. The more he played, the more energetic he became. In just two quarters of an hour, he had figured out the correct way to use it and started to control the direction of the boat towards the fishing boat.

Yu Mengzi worked hard at the beach for a day. Seeing that it was getting dark, the sea gradually became windy and waves, and the surrounding villagers went back together. He also gradually stood up holding on to the beach.

Punching my sore back, I gasped and looked at the vast sea, my eyes slightly moist.

Since his son and daughter-in-law died at sea, he had to feed his three grandchildren by himself, and he didn’t dare to stop at all. He didn’t know how long he could live, or whether he could protect his grandchildren as they grew up.

The more he thought about it, the sadder he became. Yu Mengzi’s vision was blurred by tears. In a trance, he seemed to see a huge ship appearing in front of him.

How is this possible? How could there be such a big ship in the world?

He subconsciously turned around to leave, thought for a moment, and looked back. This sight frightened him so much that he fell onto the beach.

Su Tai and Shen Yi in the cockpit also saw Yu Mengzi.

Su Tai said hurriedly, "Let's see if we can get closer, or ask if there is a port here."

Shen Yi operated carefully.

Su Tai thought about it and decided to go outside and have a look.

Yu Mengzi just watched the boat getting closer and closer to him. After a while, a beautiful woman appeared. The woman waved and shouted to him. He must have met the goddess of the sea!

After Yu Mengzi came back to his senses, he immediately kowtowed to Su Tai.

Su Tai: "????"

Shen Yi let the ship get closer, then walked to the deck and asked in a loud voice: "Fellow, is there a port?" Yu Mengzi didn't understand Shen Yi's words, so he stood up with a blank look on his face.

Su Tai was helpless, "You keep sailing, and we'll walk along the seaside to see if we can get ashore."

It stands to reason that it is possible, but I don't know if the port is that big.

At the same time, Su Tai was still gesturing with Yu Mengzi.

Yu Mengzi couldn't understand, so he subconsciously followed the direction of the boat. After a while, he suddenly realized it, quickened his pace, and asked the fishing boat to follow him.

With the help of Yu Mengzi, the couple finally docked.

After anchoring, Shen Yi took Su Tai ashore and expressed his gratitude to the excited Yu Mengzi.

Yu Mengzi asked curiously: "Where did you come from? I thought I saw gods! How could you have such a big ship?"

His words were full of emotion. The local accent sounded very obscure, and the two of them could only understand his meaning from a few words.

Su Tai saw that he was dressed in rags and took out a tael of silver to thank him.

Because I couldn’t communicate with Yu Mengzi, I could only say goodbye to him temporarily.

Being in a different place, the couple was particularly careful and had no intention of leaving the fishing boat.

Yu Mengzi ran home excitedly with the unexpected one tael of silver.

The eldest granddaughter Xiaoyu had already cooked and was sitting at the door of the low room with her two young grandsons, waiting for him.

He quickly quickened his pace.

The eight-year-old Xiaoyu saw Yu Mengzi's return with sharp eyes. He held back the tears and ran up with his younger brother on his back, "Grandpa, let me get it for you."

"Okay, okay!" Yu Mengzi gave her the small fish basket, which contained some open shells at the beach. They can be stored for a period of time if dried.

"Grandpa, why are you so late today?" Xiaoyu hugged the fish basket uneasily and looked up at Yu Mengzi aggrievedly.

Yu Mengzi was inexplicably sad, and his tone of voice softened a lot, "Grandpa just met a noble man and showed him a way, which delayed him for a while."

He did not dare to be outside. The matter of raising money.

For a poor family like them, one tael of silver is enough for the whole family for a year or two, which is a huge sum of money.

Xiaoyu breathed a sigh of relief and his steps became cheerful.

There is no extra money to buy candles at home, and the only candle is very precious and cannot be used easily.

Yu Mengzi went into the kitchen house in the dark to eat, then took his granddaughter and grandson back to the house to rest.

Early the next morning, as soon as he went out to go to the beach, he heard the villagers talking about big ships and so on. Driven by curiosity, he also squeezed into the crowd.

"Today the village chiefs of several villages took many people to the harbor. That boat is really big! If there were such a boat, wouldn't it be so dangerous for us to go fishing at sea?"

"No! I have never seen such a big ship in most of my life!"

"Let's go and see the excitement."

"What are you looking at? This Everyone will run there soon, can they squeeze in?"

Yu Mengzi wanted to speak several times, but did not say a word because of scruples.
