Chapter 260: Rake Up (Two Chapters in One)

"Uncle, we want the two deck chairs under the sun umbrella. How much is the usage fee?" Lin Li came to the administrator and pointed to the chair where Su Yue was sitting. That sun umbrella, said.

“Fifteen yuan an hour.” The administrator quoted the price.

"Okay, give me an hour." Lin Li now had nothing. His mobile phone was placed in the safe in the changing room, so of course he couldn't use online payment.

However, this did not trouble him. An idea came to his mind, and he took out some change that he had placed on the mysterious island in advance.

Lin Li opened his right hand, and a ten-dollar note and a five-dollar note appeared in his hand. He placed the fifteen yuan in cash on the small table in front of the administrator.

The administrator in charge of the lounge chairs was just an ordinary person. He just thought that Lin Li had brought the fifteen yuan with him before he came to pay.

After collecting the money, he began to register the time of the location used by Lin Li in the book in front of him.

"I still have drinks here, would you like a bottle?" After registering the location used by Lin Li, the administrator pointed to the small refrigerator next to him and asked Lin Li.

“Let’s get two bottles of mineral water!”

"A total of five yuan."

Lin Li spread his left hand, and a five yuan note appeared in his hand.

After paying the money, Lin Li, carrying two bottles of mineral water, walked to where Su Yue was.

…………

Su Yue, who was rubbing her cramped thigh, heard someone sitting down on the recliner next to her, and then turned to look at her side.

"! You must be very thirsty after swimming for so long... drink some water." Lin Li opened the mineral water for Su Yue and handed it over.

"Tons, tons, tons..." Su Yuekou was indeed a little thirsty. After taking the mineral water handed over by Lin Li, he drank half the bottle in one breath.

Looking at Su Yue drinking gulps of water, Lin Li opened the mineral water in his hand and drank it too.

"Huh..."

After drinking the water, Su Yue took a long breath, leaned back, and lay on the recliner, with a relaxed look on her face.

"If it weren't for me this time, you would have sunk to the bottom of the sea..." Lin Li put down the mineral water in his hand and said to Su Yue.

"Yes! Thank you!"

"Yes."

The two exchanged a brief word, then each lay on the deck chair under the sun umbrella and blew. The cool sea breeze blowing in my face made me rest comfortably.

After resting for about ten minutes, although Su Yue's cramped right leg has not fully recovered, she can already walk.

At this time, Lin Li sat up and said to Su Yue, who was lying on the recliner.

"It's almost time to rest. Let's go to the pier where the driver mentioned on the way here before the sun goes down to buy some seafood!"

"Okay!" Su Yue nodded, then stood up, and then the two of them walked towards the changing room.

They took a shower in the changing room to wash away the salt that had adhered to their bodies when they swam in the sea. They put on their original clothes and came out carrying a black bag containing their swimsuits.

"The pier the driver said is three or four kilometers away from here. Let's take a tricycle there!" Lin Li said, looking at the location of the pier displayed on the map on his mobile phone.

"Should we put our swimsuits back in the hotel now and then go to the pier, or should we go directly there?" Su Yue asked.

“Let’s go back to the hotel first and then go there!” Lin Li said after looking at the plastic bag containing the swimsuit in his hand.

If it was just him, he could just put the plastic bag containing the swimsuit into the mysterious island without going back to the hotel.

“Then let’s hurry up! Didn’t the driver and master say that before?

At this time, many people will come to the pier to buy seafood from the fishermen returning from fishing. , we are late, so we can only buy the leftover seafood picked by others..." Su Yue smiled, and then walked towards the hotel first.

Although she said to hurry up, her feet were not very fast. After all, her legs were cramped just now and they were still in pain.

Lin Li took the initiative, accelerated slightly, and passed him within a few seconds.

"Lin Li, wait for me, why are you walking so fast?" Seeing Lin Li walking further and further away, Su Yue wanted to catch up but couldn't walk fast, so she immediately became anxious and shouted to Lin Li.

"Didn't you say hurry up?" Lin Li heard Su Yue calling him from behind, turned his head and smiled.

"We must seize the time, but you are walking too fast. My cramped feet have not fully recovered yet, so I can't keep up with you! Can't you just wait for me?" Su Yue felt aggrieved. said.

"You have so many things going on..." Lin Li slowed down, and when Su Yue caught up, he deliberately showed a look of disgust and said to Su Yue beside him.

"You... I'm like this now, isn't it because you insisted on chasing me in the sea just now and made me exert too much force, which caused my legs to cramp..." Su Yue saw the look on Lin Li's face With an expression on his face, he said angrily.

"Eh?!!!" When Lin Li heard what Su Yue said, he immediately looked at her with wide eyes.

"Who did you, a woman, learn the skill of raking and raking? It was obviously your fault in the first place, but now you blame me?

If you hadn't relied on yourself in the beginning Your swimming skills are better than mine, and then you tease me with great arrogance. Will I chase you?”

"Is that so? I almost drowned just now, which made my memory a little confused. I can't even remember the cause..." Su Yue said seriously with a confused look on her pretty face.

"Ha, you are pretending to be..." Lin Li curled his lips and thought to himself, this woman almost drowned because of leg cramps just now, so let's not care about her.

The two were noisy along the way and arrived at the hotel unknowingly.

There were many tourists coming in and out of the hotel. Lin Li and Su Yue, who were bickering with each other along the way, stopped bickering immediately when they saw there were many people.

Then, the two quickly entered the hotel, got on the elevator, and headed towards the floor where they lived.

…………

In Qiongcheng, especially along the coast, there are many master drivers who operate electric tricycles.

After putting their swimsuits back in their guest rooms, Lin Li and Su Yue came out of the hotel.

They stood under the big tree on the roadside in front of the hotel. After waiting for a while, they saw an unoccupied electric tricycle approaching from a distance.

"The car is here." Su Yue said to Lin Li, who was playing with his mobile phone next to him, and then raised his hand to wave to the electric tricycle approaching in the distance.

Lin Li heard the reminder and immediately collected his cell phone. After a while, a gray-haired driver, driving the latest electric tricycle, stopped in front of them.

"Where are you going?" The driver of the electric tricycle was an old man. After stopping the car, he asked Su Yue with a smile. "We want to go to the pier in that direction. Master, you should know where the pier I'm talking about is, right?" Su Yue pointed to the other end of the road and said to the driver.

"That pier you are talking about! I know you are going there to buy seafood from the fishermen returning from the sea, right?" The experienced driver guessed it at once Why is Su Yue going to that dock?

“Yes.”

"It costs ten yuan to go there."

There is no meter for electric tricycles, they are all quoted directly.

It’s about three or four kilometers from here to the destination. An ordinary electric tricycle driver will quote a starting price of fifteen yuan to tourists, and only ten yuan to locals.

The driver in front of me saw that the girl was very beautiful, even prettier than ordinary celebrities, so he gave her a cheap price.

Su Yue searched online before, and a tourist left a message saying that electric tricycles are called electric tricycles in this area, and the driver will quote you 15 yuan, 20 yuan, or 25 yuan. Be careful of being ripped off. If you feel that If you are not satisfied with the price, you must bargain.

But now the driver in front of her only quoted a price of ten yuan. Su Yue, who was still thinking about bargaining, suddenly felt a little disappointed. Then she nodded and said that the price was okay, and then asked Lin Li to get in the car.

"Sit tight, I'm going to start the car." The driver said, and then started the car.

"Woo..."

A subtle sound came from the electric tricycle. Compared with a car that burns oil, the sound made by an electric car is much smaller.

Electric tricycles carry passengers, which is a major feature of Qiongcheng! At least when he was in Rongcheng, Lin Li had never ridden an electric tricycle, nor had he seen an electric tricycle soliciting customers.

Turning her head and looking outside, the scenery on both sides of the road receded quickly. Su Yue, who was sitting next to Lin Li, said with a smile.

"There are no electric tricycles in Rongcheng to solicit passengers. This should be your first time riding such an electric tricycle, right?"

"Hmm."

"How do you feel? ”

“It’s very good, the view is very broad”

The distance of three or four kilometers was not too far. Lin Li and Su Yue chatted for a while before they arrived at their destination.

…………

“We’ve arrived.” The driver stopped the car and said to Lin Li and Su Yue.

The two got out of the car, Lin Li took out his mobile phone to pay, and then they walked towards the pier in the distance.

There is a bright red sunset at the end of the sea, and half of the sky is dyed red.

Fishing boats one after another returned to the dock from the endless blue sea, and there were seabirds in twos and threes above the fishing boats.

The fishermen who arrived at the pier earlier took the seafood they caught today ashore and set up small stalls on both sides of the pier along the road.

Many people come here to buy seafood, some of them are locals, and the other part are foreigners who can tell at a glance that they are traveling here.

“It’s so lively here!” Su Yue exclaimed in surprise as she looked at the passers-by who were coming and going in front of her, holding bags of seafood waiting to be bought.

Although the Su Yue family has its own dock and an ocean-going fishing fleet, both the dock and the ocean-going fishing fleet are much larger than the docks and fishing boats we see now. .

However, her family's dock is not open to the public. After the offshore fishing fleet approaches the dock, the seafood unloaded from the ship is directly sent to the factory for processing, or is loaded onto a refrigerated truck and transported directly.

Therefore, in terms of liveliness and humanistic atmosphere, it is far inferior to the current small pier.

Lin Li saw Su Yue looking around happily, and asked with some confusion, "You have traveled to Qiongcheng with your parents before, have you never been to a similar wharf to buy first-hand seafood? ”

Coming to such a pier to buy seafood is just because it is much cheaper to buy seafood from these fishermen who go fishing themselves.

Su Yue came to Qiongcheng with her parents to travel. There was no need to go to the pier to buy seafood in order to save some money, so naturally she had never been to such a place.

"..." Su Yue was silent for a moment after hearing this, and then said vaguely, "I've never been here! My parents and I were just playing around at that time, and we never thought of coming to a place like this to buy seafood."

"Oh." Lin Li nodded, without thinking much, and changed the topic. He raised his finger and pointed to a small stall selling seafood in the distance and said.

"Let's go over there and have a look! That stall has just been set up, there are not many customers, and most of the seafood has not been bought by others."

"Okay!"
< br>Then, the two of them walked towards a seafood stall in the distance set up by a fisherman who had just landed ashore not long ago.

"Handsome man, beautiful woman, these are the seafood we just caught today. You can buy them back and cook them briefly, and they will be very delicious." The fisherman lady wearing a straw hat said enthusiastically to the two customers who came to her stall. greeted.

The fisherman lady wearing a straw hat who has set up a stall here for many years can tell at a glance that the two young people in front of her are tourists who come here from out of town. They come to this pier just to buy something. Some cheap and fresh seafood.

"Lin Li, let's have some of each kind of seafood!" Su Yue looked at the dazzling array of seafood in front of her. She was a little dazzled. Some of the fish looked very strange. She was in Rongcheng. Never seen it in the vegetable market.

"Okay!" Lin Li nodded, then raised his finger to a fish in front of Su Yue that looked so ugly that he couldn't name it, and asked the fisherman sister wearing a straw hat, "Mrs. Boss , this fish is edible Right? "

"It's edible. We call it stone fish locally. Don't look at it. Just steam it after processing. The fish will be very tender and delicious..." The man wearing a straw hat The fisherman sister explained with a smile.

"Okay, then please pack me one of these stone fish, and then bring me some crabs, prawns, squid..." Lin Li looked at the seafood on the stall, and named each seafood while wearing a straw hat. The fisherman sister would put some in Lin Li's bag.

"Boss boss, don't you have any Pipi shrimps here?" Su Yue looked around the stall and asked, not seeing the Pipi shrimps she wanted.

"There are some Pippi shrimps. Beauty, wait a moment, I'll get them..." the fisherman sister wearing a straw hat said to Su Yue.

Then she turned around and shouted to her husband who was standing on a fishing boat not far away sorting seafood and had not yet reached the shore.

“Husband, the guest wants Pipi shrimps, please bring some quickly.”

"Wait a moment, I'll be here soon."

The fisherman uncle wearing a straw hat responded, and then looked for a small basket on the fishing boat.

After a while, I saw him carrying a small basket of Pipi shrimps to the seafood stall, and pouring the plump Pipi shrimps in the basket into a plastic bucket.
