Chapter 706
"However," Zhipeng turned his head and looked at the busy crowd on the dock in the distance, a smile on his face: "It's a bit hard, but seeing everyone so happy, it's all worth it."
Xue Tao also laughed.
"Let's go, Mom and Dad are worried about you!"
Zhipeng smiled and nodded, and the three of them walked towards Zhou's house together.
The sea breeze was still biting, blowing up sand and stones on the ground and hitting my face painfully.
When they arrived at the door of Zhou's house, Zhipeng and Xue Tao smelled a familiar fragrance. It was the braised fish made by Zhong Tiyun. The plump fish meat was wrapped in a thick sauce, which was mouth-watering.
"Oh, this fragrance is really unbearable!"
Xue Tao couldn't help but sniff, and her stomach growled, making Zhipeng and Qi Mingyu laugh.
Zhong Tiyun was very surprised and hurried to the stone house. "Come in quickly. I figured you would come here, so I made a big meal for dinner."
When I opened the door, the room was warm and Zhou Jianghai and Mu Mu were tidying up the tables and chairs.
Zhou Jianghai then asked the two of them to sit down: "Hurry, sit down, the meal will be served soon."
He glanced back and saw that they were the only two people there, so he immediately said, "You two adults are here, why didn't you bring Yuxuan and Chunchun? Datao, go back and call Dongdong, Yuxuan, and Chunchun. Your aunt has guessed this and has prepared a sumptuous meal. Go back and call them. You brought so many things."
Neither of them could come empty-handed, so each of them carried about ten pounds of fish, and between the two of them it was almost thirty pounds.
"That's too much." Mu Mu also said, "Cousin, it seems you got a lot of rewards this time!"
Xue Tao grinned: "I'll go back and ask Zhipeng to tell you that there is a happy event."
To be precise, they are two happy events.
At the dinner table, Zhipeng told everyone that both he and Xue Tao had made contributions this time.
After discussion, it was decided that Zhipeng would be the captain of the sixth medium-sized fishing vessel, and Xue Tao would be the deputy captain.
A big step forward from before.
Zhipeng and Xue Tao used to have ordinary fishing boats, managing about a hundred fish.
Later, due to various natural disasters and escapes, some of them were lost, and now there are only more than seventy left.
Zhipeng was worried about the safety of this fishing trip, so he only took half of the fishing boats and people out.
Unexpectedly, it turned out to be a blessing in disguise and I actually made a contribution.
Everyone was very surprised and hurriedly used water instead of wine to congratulate them!
A blush appeared on Zhipeng and Xue Tao's dark faces, as if they were really drunk.
As Zhou Jianghai picked up some food for the two of them, he asked, "Our warship's medium-sized fishing boats should all have captains, right?"
A carrot and a pit.
Which ship will Zhipeng be the captain of?
Yuxuan was also very happy. She had urged her brother to tell her about this at home. She said, "They were pirate ships. We captured several of them at the time, including two fishing boats. Although they were not as good as our warships, they were still pretty good and more useful than small fishing boats."
After hearing this, everyone was very happy for the two people.
Zhong Tiyun asked, "You are the captain and deputy captain of a large ship. What are your salaries like?"
This is not good to publicize!
Yuxuan whispered in Zhong Tiyun's ear, "It's three times my previous salary."
Zhong Tiyun's eyes lit up and she nodded repeatedly: "Okay, okay, it's time to increase the price."
The breadwinners of the two families received three times their usual salary, plus they got a share of every fish caught, so they could quickly save up a considerable amount of supplies.
Because she was happy, Zhong Tiyun quickly made a dish of sweet potato with sugar.
Everyone ate it with great interest.
They have basically never seen sugar now, and they didn’t expect that the Zhou family still had it.
Zhong Tiyun explained, "We lived in the base before and planted some beets. We boiled them and made traditional brown sugar. Although it's not as fine as the sugar you buy, it's enough for our family."
