Chapter 1716: Heaven’s Jealousy of Talent 78
That's it, although they live what others may consider to be the poorest life. Their only income is kelp, which is less than five yuan per person per day. With the money I earned, I bought three yuan a pound of grain flour, and the rest was taken from the local area and produced for my own use.
But they didn't imagine that they wanted to escape from here immediately, but they didn't want to leave. Even the fact that there were pearls here was kept secret.
Xining let out a long breath: "Maybe I was wrong this time, and I shouldn't have brought you here."
Everything will be driven by profit. Once human greed sets its sights on something, it will definitely change.
"Boss, how could you be wrong? Not only are you not wrong, but you are just in time." Hu Liangming continued to talk unknowingly: "The village was almost about to be massacred last night. Fortunately, we were here."

Ying Feihu had already followed him out to catch the sea. He knew from the breakfast just now that the oysters and abalone here were good, so he followed the locals to look for them on the rocks.
Zhe Zhiwei looked at Jiang Debin.
Jiang Debin remained silent. After all, there was no telling how much benefit this matter had. The second district where his father was located was right next to here. As the saying goes, those who are near the water get the moon first. No matter how capable the heroes in the seventh district are, they cannot bring troops to fight over the district and interfere in the affairs here.
And the pearl here is very likely to be his weight to take over the position of governor of the second district.
But once District 2 came here to hunt for pearls, they knew it must have been Jiang Debin who said it, and the friendship ended. In politics, there are only permanent interests, but no permanent friends. For the ultimate goal, what does this friendship mean?
Except for Hu Liangming, who has not yet considered the general direction, the other three people already know it.
At this time, some villagers came and asked if they wanted to go fishing with them in a fishing boat. The so-called fishing boats are small boats made by hand from branches, bark, and reeds. When a person sits in the boat, the boat will sink a little. The bottom of the boat is still leaking, and the seawater will bubble up in the hull.
No matter how unsafe this boat looked, Hu Liangming shook his head: "I still won't go. I won't take classes at the seaside until next semester."
Xining smiled and said: "If you don't know how to swim, just hold your breath and hold it for three to four minutes. With our strength, it is not difficult to lift the head out of the water. Breathe back and forth and paddle in the water, and we can do it in three to five minutes." If you get to the shore, you won’t drown.”
Hu Liangming still didn't want to go. It happened that the children in the village were learning to dance. This dance was not difficult to learn and was beautiful. It was used to pray and thank nature. He wanted to stay and have a look.
Before going out, she changed into local clothes. Xining wore a cloth skirt and a leaf hat on her head. The female villager smiled and hung a necklace made of shells and coconut shells around her neck.
Seeing her like this, everyone was laughing, and the children were laughing even harder. Even Zhe Zhiwei smiled unconsciously.
A female villager said: "What a beautiful girl. I have never seen such a beautiful girl. It would be great if I could stay here and be my wife." She looked at Park's parents when she spoke.
Pu's mother smiled so dark that her teeth were exposed, and there were wrinkles around the corners of her eyes: "Don't think about impossible things. You can tell at a glance that she belongs to a wealthy family in the city, and her parents are reluctant to let their daughter come here. ”
Another said: "Second aunt, it's not impossible. Your eldest son will go to the city in the future. It's rare to come back."
Pu's mother still smiled and said: "My eldest son is not worthy, so don't say more. It is not good to be heard."
"It's okay, they don't understand anyway." The villagers laughed and laughed.
A girl whose teeth had not yet stained her teeth helped Zhe Zhiwei hang up a necklace, and then ran to her friends. Her friends all smiled at her, and she seemed to be embarrassed, so she smiled and pushed him.
Zhe Zhiwei lowered his head and looked at the necklace: "Is this supposed to be okay?" "It's okay, it's okay!" The villager who understood Common Language said with a smile: "You are all good-looking, and you are so tall."
"I thought you thought it looked good like this." Zhe Zhiwei looked around and saw tattoos and big black teeth. He was short, dark and thin.
The villager who acted as the translator laughed loudly: "I used to think so, but people outside are different from us. As time goes by, I think it looks good that way. Both look good!"
Not translating what I just said saved me a lot of embarrassment.
Simple yet a little cautious, self-aware. Unlike some human beings who don't care if they are poor and don't care about others. When they see a beautiful girl, they don't care whether it is suitable or not, they always think of their own son, even if his son is a drooling fool.
The boat is very long and narrow, with a villager rowing it in the front and back, and two people can sit in the middle. It is usually empty and filled with caught fish or seafood.
There are only five boats in the entire village. These boats are easy to break. They become weathered and corroded by sea water within a year of use and need to be reinforced. After three years, it will be scrapped and started again, so the village is always busy.
Xi Ning, Zhe Zhiwei, and Jiang Debin each sat on one side and sat in the middle. They were given paddles, and it was up to them whether to paddle or not. It was originally meant to be played with them.
Don't worry, after they go out, the villagers will discuss things. Anyway, they don’t understand the local dialect, so they can say whatever they want in front of you.
The boat stopped when it reached about three to four hundred meters from the coast. The villagers stuffed a straw cage with a piece of fish meat and put it down, saying they wanted to catch large lobsters. Then he jumped into the water.
After a while, shellfish, sea urchins, sea cucumbers, etc. fished out from the bottom of the sea were thrown into the boat. There is sea water seeping into the cabin, and these seafood will not die for a while.
He also caught an octopus weighing seven or eight kilograms and threw it into the boat.
Looking at the octopus in front of him, flipping its eight tentacles, Xining...
Jiang Debin said: "I want to go there too!"
After hearing this, the villagers in Haili smiled and waved. Even if they couldn't understand the local dialect, they knew they were asking him to come down.
Jiang Debin immediately took off his straw hat and linen clothes, and jumped into the water shirtless. After taking a deep breath, I dived into the sea.
I must dive into the bottom of the sea to see if there are any pearls. This guy is really thoughtful.
Zhe Zhiwei also went into the sea, maybe to see if there were any pearls. However, his purpose should not be the same as Jiang Debin. After all, Zhe Zhiwei's father is from the 10th District. He is beyond his reach here and will not interfere even if he relies on it. As a bastard, even if he has such a credit as providing clues, the rewards he will receive will be different from those of a legitimate son. Zhe Zhiwei would not make wedding clothes for his brothers who wanted to kill him just to get a few compliments and some rewards.
Most of all, I want to see what pearls look like.
Xining didn't think about it, but sat in the boat and watched them go up and down in the sea. After all, he is a martial arts practitioner. There is not a trace of fat on his body, and his muscles are very distinct. Zhe Zhiwei's complexion is quite white, which is really pleasing to the eye.
