Yu Xiaolian, Sun and the others waited until dark before Yu Changhe and Sun Fengshou came back.

As soon as he entered the house, Sun Fengshou took out a bunch of copper coins and handed them to Old Mrs. Sun. He said with a naive smile, "My brother-in-law and I went for a walk at the dock and happened to catch up with a large cargo ship that was about to unload. The foreman said that it would dock today.

There were many ships but there was a shortage of laborers. He asked us if we could do it. After unloading the cargo, we were given one hundred and fifty coins each. My brother-in-law and I discussed it and then we unloaded it."

Sun Feng's joy at the harvest was beyond words, and he said that Bohai City was a good place and he could make money quickly.

If you work hard and hard for a day in the village, you can earn up to thirty cash a day.

Sun Fengshou asked Mrs. Sun to collect the money, and then said to Yu Changhe excitedly, "Brother-in-law, we will go back tomorrow, since we have nothing to do anyway."

Old Mrs. Sun said, "You can just go by yourself, and you are dragging your brother-in-law with you. Your brother-in-law's legs are inconvenient!"

Yu Changhe also handed a bunch of copper coins to Mrs. Sun, turned around and said to his old mother-in-law with a smile, "Mom, my legs are fine. There are a few people in their sixties working there. Those old men are gone."

It's not as fast as me to get up!"

Although Yu Changhe seemed to be in good spirits and not too tired, Yu Xiaolian still said worriedly, "Dad, uncle, don't go there tomorrow. Our family is not short of the few hundred coins now. When we get to Yuzhou, we will

Once you’ve settled in, it’s not too late to make money.”

Although Yu Xiaolian tried his best to persuade them, they could not stop Yu Changhe and Sun Fengshou from going out to carry bags again the next day.

Yu Changhe and Sun Fengshou carried the bags for several days. Yu Xiaolian also hung out with Uncle Ban and the others for several days. They also collected two wooden barrels of shrimps from the fishing boats. The shrimps were not big and the quantity was small.

, but better than freshness.

On the morning of the fifth day, Yu Changhe woke them up early and packed their bags.

After packing their baggage, Yu Xiaolian put the bedding they carried into the space, and then the group hurried to the dock.

A giant passenger ship with a length of about ten feet, a height of about three feet, and a width of two feet and five feet, is as majestic as a mountain, floating on the waves.

The hull is made of giant girders processed from a whole piece of wood and laminated together. It is strong and strong and has good sinking resistance.

Yu Xiaolian sighed in her heart, the wisdom of the ancients should not be underestimated.

There were many people going to Luzhou queuing up on the shore. The queue was already very long. Yu Xiaolian and the others also queued up consciously.

When the team slowly advanced and reached a notice board, Yu Xiaolian glanced at the notice posted on it.

Those who should take the official ship are asked to carry 200 kilograms of clothing and food. If they carry it privately in violation of the limit, if they are sent and sent, fifty kilograms will be given to one person, and each person will be whipped fifty times; if one hundred kilograms and two people are given, each will be given a hundred canes.

When Mrs. Sun saw Yu Xiaolian staring at the bulletin board, she asked, "Daughter, what does this mean?"

Yu Xiaolian said, "People who go out on passenger ships are not allowed to carry more than two hundred kilograms of food and clothing. There are also restrictions on the passengers who can board the ship. In addition to carrying cargo, if the extra space is used privately,

If you are a human being, you will be punished by being whipped."

Ms. Sun said, not quite understanding. She thought it said something like how much a boat ride costs per person.

Yu Changhe walked in the front, holding ten taels of silver in his hand. When he arrived at the boarding area, there was a man who collected the ticket money.

"Five hundred coins per person, how many of you are there?"

Yu Changhe hurriedly said, "Eight!"

As he said that, he quickly handed over the silver. The man took the silver, checked eight red-stamped ferry tickets for Yu Changhe, found six taels of silver for Yu Changhe, and then shouted to the back, "You can release more."

Fifteen people, any more will be overloaded."

Yu Changhe supported Sun, Sun Fengshou supported the old lady, Yu Xiaolian held Xiao Huzi, and Zhao Erya held Sanya. The group of them carefully stepped on the bridge board and boarded the boat.

The cabin is very large, divided into three levels. The bottom level is where the boatmen work and rest. The boat they are riding on is a paddle wheel. A paddle wheel with blades is installed on the side or stern of the boat.

Manpower steps on the paddle wheel shaft, causing the paddle blades on the wheel's circumference to move water and push the hull forward.

Yu Xiaolian and the others were currently on the middle floor. There were no chairs on the boat, and most of the people on board were sitting on the floor.

Of course, there are also people who spend another two taels of silver to live in a single room upstairs.

After all, it takes two days and one night to get to Luzhou. If there is a headwind, it may take even longer.

Yu Xiaolian also found the captain, paid six taels of silver, and asked for three rooms.

Mrs. Sun was fine when she first came aboard, but soon after the boat started, she felt dizzy and felt like vomiting.

Yu Xiaolian knew that Mrs. Sun was seasick.

Mrs. Sun's face turned pale, and she couldn't help but feel nauseous while lying on the bed. After struggling for a long time, she finally couldn't help but vomited. Fortunately, after vomiting once, Mrs. Sun felt a little better.

But at noon, when Yu Xiaolian took out the prepared dry food and asked Sun to eat something, Sun shook her head like a rattle and refused to eat anything.

If you don't eat, you won't have anything to throw up, or so Sun said.

But as a pregnant woman, Mrs. Sun, how can she not eat?

Everyone advised Mrs. Sun to eat a little, but Mrs. Sun shook her head and asked Yu Xiaolian to open the window, hoping to enjoy the sea breeze and wake up.

But as soon as the window opened, the sea breeze with a hint of fishy smell came in. Sun made a retching sound and couldn't help but vomit again.

Although there was nothing left in her stomach to vomit, Mrs. Sun just couldn't stop vomiting.

In the afternoon, Mrs. Sun was really tired from all the hard work, so she finally lay down on the bed and fell asleep.

Except for Sun, the other seven people felt nothing. Not only did Xiaohuzi and Sanya not get seasick, they were also very excited. They always lay at the window and watched the waves. Occasionally, they saw a looming fish in the sea, and the two of them pointed at the sea and moaned.

Yelled.

Yu Xiaolian told Zhao Erya to keep an eye on the two of them. If they fell into the sea, it would be the end.

After one day of adapting, Sun's reaction was not as big as the first day.

But she still refused to eat more. She felt that as long as she ate too much, her stomach would become even more uncomfortable.

Fortunately, their boat had a smooth journey and arrived in Luzhou in the afternoon of the next day.

Xiao Huzi and Zhao Sanya reluctantly got off the boat, while Sun felt that she was finally liberated.

After taking a breath of the air on the shore, Sun said, "I will never take a boat again."

She was also a child who grew up by the river. She never noticed that she was afraid of water since she was a child. Why did she get seasick while taking a boat?

Sun Fengshou lamented, "The wharf in Luzhou is bigger than the wharf in Bohai Sea."

The pier is large and there are many people coming and going.

Yu Xiaolian smiled and said, "Of course, the area of ​​Luzhou is more than ten Bohai cities."
