(Daily Life + Sea Foraging + Relaxed + Tycoon) Reborn back in 2002, transforming from a top corporate elite into a village rascal who used to steal chickens and dogs, Ye Cheng accidentally obtained...
"Pull, pull it now! Damn, did you not eat?" Ye Cheng tried to pull, but couldn't budge it at all. Xiao Hu hadn't exerted any effort at all; he was really good at slacking off.
The little tiger in the middle was half-submerged in the water, leaning back, its hands twitching slightly in the water. It barely moved, prompting Ye Cheng to turn around and shout.
"Damn, bro, I know you're weak, but you can't be this weak. At least put in some effort!"
"Bullshit! I've used every ounce of my strength, and you're the one slacking off." Ye Cheng retorted, having tried for ages to pull it off, yet he still claimed to be weak.
"No way, I've been pooping the whole time," Xiao Hu said, puzzled.
Ye Guowei had already walked over, squatted down, and together with Xiao Hu, they pulled the cage open.
However, when Ye Cheng tried to take it, there was still no response.
Even after they had all pulled out most of it, Ye Cheng was still motionless.
"Damn, after all that, there are two cages." Ye Cheng finally realized.
For some reason, the two cages rolled together. Ye Cheng was surprised; he thought they were one.
Now that's settled, Ye Guowei first helped Xiao Hu pull up one cage, and then came over to help Ye Cheng pull up the second cage.
We found 3 out of the 6 fish traps we set, which is better than what we found at Yuan Mazi's place.
Moreover, the contents of those two fish traps were incredibly tempting to the three of them.
It's packed full, even more so than the first fish trap.
I have no idea how they managed to squeeze in there.
Yuan Mazi, bored anyway, walked over dejectedly, glanced at it, his expression changed drastically, and he instantly lost his composure, pointing at the cage and saying...
"You guys are exaggerating! How can a single fish trap contain so many things?"
Ye Cheng ignored him, thinking, "What's it to you?"
Ye Guowei replied, "Perhaps the tide came in a good way this time."
These words made Yuan Mazi feel terrible. If only he had chosen this location yesterday, he would be the one counting money and his hands would be aching.
Yuan Mazi went back to his own side.
Ye Cheng began to worry.
There are a total of 6 burlap sacks, and 2 and a half are now full. The contents of these two fish traps are definitely not going to fit.
"Brother, what should we do?" Xiao Hu stood there scratching his head. Happiness can sometimes be a kind of trouble.
Ye Cheng pondered for a moment, then looked at Ye Guowei, "Brother, how about we ask your wife to bring over a few carrying poles and baskets, and then we can carry them back?"
Ye Guowei thought for a moment, then pointed to the things on the ground and said, "There are so many, even a carrying pole won't be enough. We'll have to get a small cart. Besides, Dou Dou is still at home; I don't know if she's asleep yet."
"I'll go back and get the car."
Fathers are different; they always think of their children first. Ye Cheng had already forgotten about Dou Dou.
"Okay, let's bag them first, and then check around here to make sure it's not too deep."
With Ye Guowei gone, he and Xiao Hu are much weaker, so they definitely need to be more careful.
Just as the three of them had decided what to do, they heard an urgent cry from the side, "Help! Help—me—!"
Looking back, damn it, when did Yuan Mazi get so deep? I don't know what happened, but he was swept into the sea and was struggling. He was about to be swept into the sea.
"Damn it, are you risking your life for money?" Ye Cheng cursed. He guessed that Ye Cheng had seen the huge harvest of his traps and wanted to go back for them, but was too embarrassed to ask for the rope.
"Stop talking, hurry up and save them, tie the rope securely." Ye Guowei's face was solemn.
The three tightened the ropes around their waists and ran quickly toward Yuan Mazi. The water was too deep, so they couldn't run fast at all.
"Uncle Yuan, hang in there, we're coming!" Ye Guowei ran in front, Xiao Hu in the middle, and Ye Cheng at the back.
When they ran to within three or four meters of Yuan Mazi, the seawater was already waist-deep and almost up to their chests. All three of them were starting to feel the strain.
"Brother, we can't go any further. If we go any further, we'll have to go in ourselves. Let's untie the rope and throw it over there." Ye Cheng pulled Ye Guowei back.
Saving others is fine, but you can't risk your own life.
Yuan Mazi still has the strength and is still fighting against the waves, occasionally leaping towards the shore.
Ye Guowei glanced at the water level and decided he didn't dare go any further.
However, it's hard to say whether Yuan Mazi will still be there once they untie the ropes.
“Okay, it’s not far. I’ll swim over, and you guys pull the rope tight and bring us back.”
"Okay, then be careful, bro."
At the crucial moment, Ye Cheng didn't hesitate. He and Xiao Hu stood in position and let the rope go to Ye Guowei.
Ye Guowei plunged headfirst into the sea like a sea fish.
We all grew up by the sea, so anyone of us can swim a few strokes.
After Ye Cheng saw Ye Guowei go down, he swam towards him with all his might. The distance of a few meters seemed quite close, but there was still the force of the seawater, so Ye Guowei was not moving very fast.
Fortunately, Ye Guowei was still a strong young man and could withstand the ups and downs of the sea. After swimming a dozen strokes, he finally reached Yuan Mazi.
"Uncle, hold on tight to me."
Ye Guowei reached out and grabbed Yuan Mazi.
Yuan Mazi was finally able to stick his head out of the water, panting heavily, and said urgently, "There's seaweed, my feet are tangled in seaweed."
Upon hearing the mention of seaweed, Ye Cheng couldn't help but curse: "Damn it!"
Getting tangled in seaweed is quite troublesome; seaweed is very tough, and it's hard to say whether you can break it by pulling on it.
"Brother, you hold him, and Xiao Hu and I will try to pull him hard."
After saying that, Ye Cheng and Xiao Hu each took one side of the rope, leaned back, and pulled hard to see if they could pull Uncle Yuan back.
But no matter how the two pulled, Yuan Mazi didn't budge; his lower body was tightly entangled.
"Acheng, I can't pull him up. We need to cut it off. Do you have a knife?" Ye Guowei shouted. Yuan Mazi was already exhausted and could only hold Ye Guowei and gasp for breath.
"Damn it, where are we going to find a knife?"
Ye Cheng made a sarcastic remark.
He and Xiaohu are half-submerged in water, and they don't even dare to bring their phones, so where would they get a knife?
"Brother, how about this?" Xiao Hu pulled a stone slab out of the water.
And believe it or not, their tools are just like those of the Upper Cave Man.
"That's fine, I'll go help him. You hold the rope tight, my life is in your hands."
"Let me tell you, without my guidance, your barbarian would never be able to beat Baal."
Upon hearing about games, Xiaohu was speechless. "Bro, what time is it? Why are you still talking about games?"
"I'm afraid you won't take it seriously if I don't talk about games. Okay, I'm going now."
After Ye Cheng finished speaking, he called out to Ye Guowei, "Brother, I'm coming over to help him cut seaweed. Just stay still."
