Chapter 73: Can you do it?

Li Changle saw Ah Qing, Chang Fa and a group of people discussing excitedly about the last typhoon, who picked up a big fish weighing one to two hundred kilograms on the beach, and who picked up something good, so he pulled Ah Wei to Go back.

He told Chen Yongwei about buying the fishing boat, "After dinner, we went to the waterway to find Lao Zhang, gave him the money, and asked him to repair the boat as soon as possible so that he could go to sea as soon as possible."

"Brother, buying a boat, repairing the fishing boat, plus buying a tricycle will cost more than 800 in total. The 150 I gave you is not even enough to buy 20% of the shares. You can deduct the difference from the money you share later."

When Li Changle heard this, he really said, "There is still money that has not been divided. Why don't you add more money to it?"

Chen Yongwei shook his head, "No. If you sell Atang's boat and the fishing gear to outsiders, it will cost at least four hundred. I have only been working with you for a few days and I have earned 20% of the shares. If I add more money to divide the shares, I will still Human!"

Li Changle patted him on the shoulder, "There are still one hundred and sixty-two yuan left to divide. I will divide the money when I come back. From now on, I will divide the money every time I sell a catch." "Yeah!" Chen Yongwei was a little excited. She looked at him and said, "Brother, we will also be the ones with small sails in the future.

Li Changle smiled and nodded, "Yes, let's try to change the small boat to a big one as soon as possible!" The two of them walked back excitedly, and stopped when they reached the entrance of the village.

"Brother, after dinner you go to the waterway alone. Now that the rain has stopped, I have to patch up the tiles on the roof at home, otherwise the leakage will be even worse when the rain comes. "Why don't you go and take a look together?"

"That's what you said, you might as well slap me!"

?????

"Okay, I'm too talkative. You go and pick up the tiles in your house. If I haven't come back yet, go to my house to help pick them up. When I come back, we will do it together." "Okay!" Chen Yongwei said again. Thinking of those caged crab pots, I wish the tide had receded now to go and find out more, "Brother, do you think our cages and pots can still be found?"

"Why are you still thinking about it?" Li Changle looked at him speechlessly, "I tell you, you must not go to the grove to find a ground cage. You also saw it at the pier just now, with such high waves and groves. It won't get any lower there.

"I know." Chen Yongwei said distressedly, "Luckily my sister-in-law didn't make all the floor cages, otherwise they would all be washed away." "Damn it! You're still saying that a grown man is just like a little girl."

"Hey! I just feel so bad. We have twenty cages. If the typhoon hadn't come, we would have caught a lot of fish. "Keep talking, you go back that way!"

"Oh!" Chen Yongwei then closed his mouth.

Li Changle and Chen Yongwei broke up at the entrance of the alley. As soon as Sister-in-law Li, who was cleaning up at the door of her house, saw him, she asked: "Ale, are the waves big? When can we go fishing?" Eat mountains by the mountains, eat the sea by the sea, fishing village Everyone knows that after a typhoon, there are a lot of fish caught on the beach. What they are most concerned about is when the tide will recede and when they can go fishing. "They say that it is a good thing if the tide recedes in the afternoon."

"Oh!" Sister-in-law Li pointed at the roof, "Nan said you climbed up to fill the tiles? Can you do that?"

"Uncle Third, if you can't do it, I'll go up." Li Xiaoyang roared in the room and walked out triumphantly, "Our badminton flew up to the roof, and I went up there." Rural children these days play badminton. , most of them are homemade with goose feathers and high-temperature bottle stoppers. The rackets are either books or small wooden boards. One or two can still be played with great fun.

Sister-in-law Li stepped forward and slapped him on the butt, "See if you can get it. If you go up and pick it up, your legs will fall off if it falls." "You guys are not allowed to do this, and you are not allowed to do that. I I went up there twice and everything was fine."

Sister-in-law Li pointed at him, "If you still want to be beaten, just talk back!"

"Okay! Next time you see him on the roof, break his legs to prevent him from falling down and losing his life.

Mother Li said and looked at Li Changle, "Our house also leaks a lot. If you can't do it, go to Li'ao and call your brother-in-law to help." He said he couldn't do it no matter what. It hurts the self-esteem of a man to ask this. Do you know?

"..." Li Changle looked at his mother-in-law, daughter-in-law, grandparents, and grandson speechless for a moment, and then said, "Look at what you said, which year doesn't have a typhoon? When I was a child, I watched my father repair the roof. He could do it with his eyes closed. good."

"When I come back from the waterway after dinner, I will start repairing the roof. Ah Wei also said that after he has repaired his house, he will come and help me." "That's more like it. You are alone, and I I'm really worried." Mother Li said, carrying the porcelain basin and walking towards the ditch.

Li Changle returned to the house and saw the two brothers Li Xiaohai sitting there listlessly, "What's wrong? Did you catch a cold while playing in the water last night?"

"I just got up, I'll be fine in a while." Zhou Ruonan came out with a pottery basin, "The sweet potato shredded porridge I cooked has been drying for a while, you can eat it first and go to the waterway." Li Changle picked up the rice bowl. Starting to serve the rice, Zhou Ruonan brought the dishes to the table, a plate of dried salted fish, a plate of stir-fried Chinese cabbage and a plate of scrambled eggs with dried shrimps.

"My grandma brought some eggs and duck eggs over, and some of our chickens started to lay eggs. "How many chickens have we raised?" Li Changle really didn't know that he also raised chickens and ducks at home.

"Four hens, two roosters and three ducks."

"Four hens, two roosters and three ducks."

Li Xiaohai became more energetic after hearing this and came over to sit next to him, "Abba, we also helped pick up screws to feed the chickens and ducks. Grandma said she would cook them for us when she laid eggs, and she would stew a big rooster for the Chinese New Year."

Li Changle looked at his son who was much more lively and happily put the rice in front of him, "Okay, I will boil eggs for you tomorrow morning, and during the Chinese New Year, I will kill two big roosters and stew them together."

He suddenly thought that these days, there were only free-range chickens, ducks and village geese. He would buy a few of them on the market day and raise them and eat them slowly. In this world, eating and drinking were the two words, and he would still be the same as before in his new life. Thanks to my wife and children, I might as well wipe my neck and burp again now.

The child nodded happily, "I like to eat big chicken drumsticks."

"Two chickens and four big chicken drumsticks are all for you to eat." Li Changle saw that the little one was still listless when it came to eating the big chicken drumsticks, "You have nothing to do. Why are you up so early if you don't want to sleep?"

Li Xiaohai yawned, "Brother Xiaoyang asked us to go to the beach, so we got up, but Aniang said the waves were still too big, so we couldn't go."

Li Changle looked at the two brothers and said seriously: "Your mother-in-law is right. My father just came back from the pier. The waves were higher than the coast. The Rongjun family's boat was capsized, not to mention the children. If the waves roll down, you won't be able to get up.

"Oh! We're not going."

"Last time, my brother went to the beach with my old lady to go fishing."

"Auntie said you can't go to the beach without an adult to lead you, but you are an adult." Li Xiaohai looked at him dissatisfied, "The complainer. Li Xiaozhou was not willing to be outdone, "Bad brother, I won't play with you anymore!"

"You think I like to play with you? A follower!" Li Xiaohai rolled his eyes at him, picked up the bowl and started eating. Li Xiaozhou flattened his mouth, turned to Zhou Ruonan and shouted, "Auntie, brother said I'm a follower!" Xiaohai pouted, "You are just a follower!"

Li Changle smiled as he watched the two little guys bickering, who were usually inseparable. Only then did he realize that when they grew up, the two brothers who wore the same pair of pants would also quarrel when they were young. "How do you become a father?" Zhou Ruonan stared at the commotion. The man glanced at him and knocked on the table a few times, "You two don't eat well, you want to stand still, right?"

"I don't want to!" the two brothers responded in unison.

After Li Changle had eaten, he went inside, took out the money, and came out and said to Zhou Ruonan, "I'm going to Lao Zhang's house, and I'll repair the roof when I get back." "Well! Be careful on the way."

Li Changle nodded, picked up his raincoat and walked towards the outside of the village. He saw people raking and repairing the roofs of every house. They all wanted to repair the roofs before the rain came and left the village and walked onto the road. They were worried about the typhoon. There was no car coming, so I simply walked and waited for the car to come.

After walking, we almost reached Panzhen when we saw a minibus coming. Thinking that there was not much left, we didn't bother to stop the bus and went from Tiankan Road along Changtang to Lao Zhang's house.

Most of the boats docked at Zhangjia Shipyard are wooden boats. These days, most of them are small wooden boats. In a few years, they will be gradually phased out and replaced by large steel boats.

Li Changle looked around and saw his own boat docked in the innermost part. When he walked over, he saw the much younger Lao Zhang, squatting in front of a fishing boat, using hemp silk, lime plaster mixed with tung oil to make a Tank mud repair fishing boat.

Wooden boats have been corroded by wind, waves and water over many years. Over time, the fillings at the joints of the boat plates will rot and fall off.

In order to ensure safe navigation and extend the service life of the ship, it is necessary to repair and glue the damaged parts of the wooden ship, especially the cracked and leaking parts of the wooden boards, to ensure the airtightness of the hull and achieve absolute safety in maritime navigation.

The dark-skinned Lao Zhang looked at Li Changle, "Young man, who are you looking for?"

"Boss Zhang, I am Li Changle, the third eldest son of the Li Rongtang family. My father asked me to send you the money to repair and renovate the fishing boat."

"Okay! Come on board with me and have a look." Lao Zhang gave the job in his hand to a young man, stood up and walked towards him, "I heard that your father was bitten by a snake. Is he feeling better?"

Li Changle smiled and handed him a cigarette, "Much better. I was discharged from the hospital yesterday."

"That's good, I'll take you on the boat to have a look." Lao Zhang paused, "After your father told me, I repaired the boat in my free time. I just heard from people in your village yesterday, He was bitten by a snake."

"It's been biting for a few days. When he got home, he asked me to bring you the money." After Li Changle looked around, he took out the money and handed it to Lao Zhang, "Boss Zhang, how long will it take to get better?" Lao Zhang answered. After counting the money, he said: "The diesel engine, propeller, etc. are all ready-made and can be modified in a week."

"Excuse me, I'll sail the boat in a week."
