Chapter 294: Family Heirloom

Ye Father frowned, watching him run down the mountain hurriedly, puzzled, and looked behind him, "What are you doing? Why did you go for so long? I called for a long time and you didn't respond?"

Ye Yaodong touched his pocket, feeling it was better not to tell his dad. He was old, no need to let him worry.

If there is really a gold mine here, it is not something they can touch. It is useless to say it, and this mountain is not small, and they can't search it.

Being able to accidentally dig two pieces is also luck. Maybe it was washed by rain, so the first lion-dog-shaped dog-head gold popped out of the soil surface.

He felt that this was a blessing, so don't be too greedy. Greed is easy to reduce blessings, and dog-head gold is not something that is everywhere. It is like looking for a needle in a haystack to find it on the mountain.

"Fell down, a bit painful, so I sat and slowed down."

Ye Father also saw that there was soil on his body and hands, so he believed it. "Be careful, such a big person, still falling when walking. Hurry up and go to the boat to eat rice cake, fortunately, what is cooked is rice cake, it won't be burnt."

He nodded, washed his hands with seawater first, and then got on the boat.

The two pieces of dog-head gold were heavy, full of weight, fortunately his pockets were big enough.

After a simple breakfast, they saw that the reef in the distance still had no changes, still popping out of the water about 1 meter, feeling a bit disappointed.

"Go over and see, if there is no harvest, forget it."

"Mm."

Ye Yaodong nodded, drove the boat slowly over, but the reef still retained the appearance they had when they hooked abalone before, neither floating nor sinking.

"Should be like this, right?"

"It's a pity, there should be quite a few abalones under the reef, and there must be quite a few small green dragons."

Ye Yaodong shrugged, "It's useless to be a pity, it's not suitable to go into the water now, wait until the weather is hot, and then come over, I will dive down to see then."

His diving equipment was bought early, that is, the weather was cold and it was not useful, this reef here is a treasure land, and you can come here to try the water when the weather is hot.

"Then go, you can drag a few more nets, don't waste time here anymore."

He nodded and drove the boat away from this reef. After being at a distance, Ye Father slowly put down the fishing net.

With the help of the water flow, the sea quickly "sucked" the drag net in.

All day, the fishing boat was working in this area, and from time to time, other fishing boats working were seen, and everyone did not interfere with each other.

But just when they planned to finish the last net and prepare to return, a 20-meter-plus big boat actually drove over at a constant speed in the distance, and the big boat was also pulling a slightly smaller small boat behind it.

He looked up, only one person was standing on the small boat driving, and the other three were curled up lying on the deck.

He hesitated whether it was a feud, so the people on the small boat were beaten? The boat was pulled? That boat looked a bit familiar?

There were quite a few people standing on the big boat, four or five young and strong men, looking at it, not from the village around them.

His heart was pondering who the boat belonged to, and he didn't pay attention for a while. His drag net had a "close contact" with the drag nets of these two fishing boats one after another. By the time he reacted, it was too late.

"Holy crap, my net, it's over, this is trouble."

Ye Father also kept paying attention to the big boat just now. The law of the jungle also applies to the sea. Big boats bullying small boats is common, so generally, when encountering fishing boats larger than themselves, they will avoid them from afar.

It was also because that big boat was pulling a small boat that they didn't move and took a few extra looks.

"Why are you so careless... this is trouble..." Ye Father ran on the boat, hurriedly preparing to collect the net.

"I'm looking at which village they are from, that small boat is a bit familiar, and I don't know where it is going to be pulled."

"Didn't see the face, but that small boat is Lan Zhengping's, and that big boat is from Luzhoudao. The people in Luzhoudao are fierce and combative, love to bully small boats to grab fishing nets, grab machines. Last year, boats from Dongqiao Village and our village were also pulled away."

Ye Father didn't see the person clearly when the two boats passed by, but recognized the boat, and the boat body had marks brushed with paint.

Luzhoudao is at the very edge of the town, surrounded by water on three sides, and also surrounded by water on the other side, but there is a small road that can go to the island.

"The family that built the house next to me?"

"Right, just notify their family to go to Luzhoudao to find people when they go back."

"They are really unlucky."

"It's inevitable to encounter it when going to sea for a long time. Collect the fishing net first."

The father and son worked together to slowly drag the various parts of the drag net out of the water section by section. Those that were entangled and unclear were cut off directly by him with a kitchen knife, let his dad grab the drag rope, and he bundled the drag net.

Without the help of machines, they all relied on manual labor to operate section by section, collecting and organizing the fishing net, the whole process was long and arduous.

This small negligence made them busy in vain for more than an hour without stopping, and the last net was also broken.

After all the fishing nets were collected, he handed it to his dad to organize, and he drove the boat to return.

Counting today, only 3 nets were hit, and the last net was wasted, and the net was broken, but the harvest was still good.

Crabs were netted 3 baskets, shrimp were also two baskets, and various sizes of fish also had 4 baskets.

When going ashore, seeing Lan Zhengping's wife also waiting for the fishing boat to dock on the shore, he hurriedly reminded: "Aunt Lan, Uncle's boat seems to have been pulled away by the people of Luzhoudao?"

"What?" She screamed and slapped her thigh. "Is the person okay? Aiya, the damn Luzhoudao people, damn it, pulled our boat away again, they are all pirates, wicked ghosts, grabbing things and moving machines is fine, but also pulled our boat away..."

Ye Yaodong interrupted Aunt Lan's messy scolding. "The person was beaten, we don't know the specific situation, just saw it when passing by us, you hurry back to call people, go to Luzhoudao together to find people."

"Right, you hurry up and call more people, call a tractor to send a trip, it's almost dark..."

"Those are not people, call more people..."

"Luzhoudao people used to be pirates, they are bad..."

"Why didn't that group of pirates die out, why do they still harm people every day, bastard, whole family dog..." She scolded while walking back, walking hurriedly.

The villagers on the shore were also discussing there. In the past, as long as they encountered Luzhoudao's boat, as long as the boat was smaller than them, they would be bullied. Grabbing fish goods and machines was fine, but people had to be beaten, and they would deliberately pull people and boats away together.

It's fine if someone sees it, they can go to find people and boats immediately. If no one sees it, they have to wait a day or two after returning by themselves.

Ye Mother asked with concern: "You encountered it, are you okay?"

"We were just dragging the net, the fishing net was messed up when passing by, wait for it to be repaired when we go back."

"That's fine, just the fishing net is broken, wait for it to be moved back and I will repair it. Avoid big boats next time, so as not to be troublesome."

"This doesn't need you to say, hurry up and help sort it out, only 3 nets were hit today..." Ye Father nagged.

"Ah? Why is there half a basket of abalone?" Ye Mother scanned it, and was surprised to see the abalone, and instantly happy again. "Dug from that reef? Did it rise again?"

【Speaking of which, the best book-chasing app currently available is the source-changing app, the source-changing app, huanyuanapp, install the latest version.】

They only dug abalone there, so she couldn't help but think about it.

"Only popped out about 1 meter, maybe it was the low tide state, the water level was low and it popped out. These are less than 20 jin, which is considered compensation for the loss of the last net."

He dug two pieces of dog-head gold and left. He only pondered later that maybe the reef didn't rise again, but it should be the reason for the rise and fall of the tide.

They met in the morning and it was low tide, and the tide would continue for a period of time before rising again.

So the reef popped out a little bit, otherwise it would have been exposed there all the time, and the abalone would have been dried to death, and they couldn't wait for them to dig.

"Then go over and see if you pass by next time, maybe you can pick up some more."

"Talk about it later..."

They talked while lifting the organized goods off the boat first. At this time, the fishing boats were entering one after another, needing to queue for weighing.

While waiting, everyone was discussing today's harvest, and Lan Zhengping's father and three sons encountered Luzhoudao people, and kept asking Ye Yaodong and Ye Father.

Ye Yaodong was eager to return home, had no mood to talk, and Ye Father was talking to everyone there.

After selling the goods, he hurriedly went home. Before he reached the door, he heard the two children running home happily, and shouted: "Mom, Dad is back~"

He smiled and walked faster and faster...

When he entered the house, Lin Xiuqing was serving dishes from the pot one by one. Seeing him enter, she turned her head and smiled: "Go wash your hands and eat."

"Good."

Responding with his mouth, he went into the room first.

Lin Xiuqing followed in puzzledly, but saw him take two large golden stones out of his pocket.

"What is this? Why do you always bring back some strange things."

"Shh, put it away first."

Lin Xiuqing curiously weighed it in her hand. "It's quite heavy, what kind of stone is this, why is it golden like gold?"

"This is dog-head gold, a kind of ore."

Lin Xiuqing's eyes shone when she heard it. "Really? Is it gold? Such a big piece can be worth a lot of money, where did you dig it? Or fished it out of the sea."

"Not gold, but the place where it appears may have gold mines."

Lin Xiuqing's hand holding the dog-head gold trembled, almost dropped it, and she couldn't speak in surprise. "Gold... gold mine? Then... then what to do... do we want to hand it over?"

"There are two, you can sell one when you need it, keep one. As for handing it over, wait for the future, it is not safe now."

The one in her belly hasn't been born yet, handing it over doesn't necessarily save her life, it's not a system, it might be life-threatening if discovered, it's not worth the loss.

Just keep it in hand, it's not too late to hand it over depending on the situation in the future.

"Is it okay to sell it?"

"It's okay, it's mine if I pick it up, and we don't touch gold mines, and we don't have that ability."

Then she was relieved, they are just ordinary little common people, and they can't do illegal things.

"Put it away, this dog-head gold has a good meaning, keep it if you can."

She smiled. "Okay, take it as a family heirloom."

"Not bad." ===== CHAPTER 295 =====

She smiled, "Alright, I'll take it as a family heirloom."

"That's not bad either."
