Chapter 431 Rotten wood?
On the beach, Zhou Chenglei held Jiang Xia's arm and walked forward in the shallow sea.
Jiang Xia was using a rake to pick snails.
In places without water, most of the people picking snails are the elderly and children, while young adults are rake snails in places with water.
The water is turbid and you can't see where the conch is, but you can feel it if you scrape it with a rake.
After raking up the conch, just bend down and pick it up.
Of course, Jiang Xia was only responsible for raking, and after raking the trash, he handed it over to Zhou Chenglei to pick up.
The couple was happy as one was raking, and the other was happy picking up the trash when he saw her happy.
You know what, even though no one has been to the beach for a few days, there are still quite a lot of snails and spicy snails, as well as some white clams.
The couple soon picked more snails and spicy snails than Zhou's father.
Father Zhou was alone in a place without water, looking carefully for the treasure eye with his head down.
Bora!
Money is coming!
Jin Lai!
Silver is coming!
Money come!
He would mutter to himself when he picked one up! Maybe even the God of Wealth was annoyed by his nagging.
At this time, a wave carrying a milky white substance rushed towards Zhou Chenglei.
Zhou Chenglei thought it was a sponge, foam plastic or something like that, and was afraid that it would get close to Jiang Xia, so he planned to kick it away with his foot. But when he saw what it looked like, he just walked forward and picked it up with his hands.
Jiang Xia also thought it was garbage, but after Zhou Chenglei picked it up, her nose, which was now more sensitive than a dog's, smelled a faint fragrance with a hint of wood.
Is this rotten wood, or has someone grown mushrooms there? Zhou's father came over and took a look. He was excited: "I knew I could find a treasure today!"
Upon hearing this, Jiang Xia looked at him carefully again.
Still don’t know! She really doesn’t know many things in the sea: “What is this? Is it valuable?”
It looks a bit like a stone, and also a bit like the dog-drawn rakes on the roadside that have been exposed to wind and sun.
The one pulled by the dog is a mini size, and this one is XL size XXXXXXXX!
Father Zhou said with a smile: "This is the legendary sperm whale's paw! Floating gold on the sea!"
Jiang Xia: “…”
Is this the incense that often appears in ancient stories and was used by emperors?
Zhou Chenglei gave a positive answer: "Have you ever heard of ambergris?"
How could you not have heard of it?
She had seen this scent countless times when she was reading ancient Chinese novels before! Out of curiosity, she even searched Baidu and found out that it was actually the excrement of sperm whales.
At that time, she was still wondering what the ancient emperors would think if they knew that he smeared fish feces on his body and burned it every day to inhale its fragrance.
Just as Zhou Chenglei was about to put it in the bucket, Zhou's father immediately said, "Give it to me!"
Zhou Chenglei gave it to him.
Father Zhou took it, held it in both hands, bent his head and smelled it: "Fragrant! Really fragrant!"
It smells like money!
If this thing is of good quality, it will be more expensive than gold!
Just as Zhou's father was about to let Jiang Xia smell it, Jiang Xia heard someone shouting for help. He turned around and saw Wen Wan waving vigorously on the shore.
"Wen Wan is calling for help."
Zhou Chenglei had poor hearing and didn't hear it. He looked in the direction Jiang Xia was looking and saw it.
Zhou's father also heard it. The treasure had been picked up, and he didn't mind doing a good deed every day.
Do good deeds, accumulate virtue and blessings, and wealth will roll in.
"It's Guohua and his wife. Let's go see what's going on. I'll go check it out first. You help Xiaoxia and go slowly."
Father Zhou handed the bucket to Zhou Chenglei, said these words and ran over.
Other villagers heard it and ran over as well.
Jiang Xia and Zhou Chenglei also walked over quickly.
When Jiang Xia and Zhou Chenglei walked over, Wen Wan had already been helped ashore by two women from the village.
Zhou's father and another villager went to help Zhou Guohua, but he couldn't stand up at all.
Seeing his condition, Zhou Chenglei was afraid that he might hurt his waist, so he said, "Don't move him yet! I'll go get a bed board and drive a tractor to take him to the hospital."
The two of them never touched Zhou Guohua again.
Zhou Chenglei took Jiang Xia home to drive the tractor.
Everyone asked how Zhou Guohua was injured.
The woman who was supporting Wen Wan also asked how Zhou Guohua was injured.
"I slipped and fell accidentally." Wen Wan's attention was on the two buckets Zhou Chenglei was carrying, and she replied absentmindedly.
They still found it!
There is no wrong version in the 1619 book forum!
Even if she shouted at the top of her lungs, she still couldn't stop him! Wen Wan suspected that Zhou Guohua was a stumbling block and obstacle on her way to becoming rich.
So it was a mistake to ask him to take me out to sea in the first place.
Zhou Chenglei took Jiang Xia home.
The two men's pace was slightly faster, but not much faster.
If you break a bone, it will hurt, but it won't be life-threatening.
It is not advisable to walk too fast in Jiangxia.
After Zhou Chenglei and Jiang Xia returned home, they told her to take a rest, then went next door to inform Zhou Bingqiang and his wife, and asked them to prepare a bed board and pillow, and pack some clothes for changing, while he went to drive the tractor.
When Zhou Bingqiang's wife heard that her son had fallen and couldn't move, she turned pale with fear! Zhou Bingqiang was also panicking, but he remained calm: "Go and dismantle the bed! Get a pillow!"
No one would have an extra unused bed board at home, so we had to dismantle it now.
When the couple came out carrying the bed boards, pillows and luggage bags, Zhou Chenglei had already driven the tractor out of the yard and was waiting for them in the alley.
Zhou Bingqiang's wife: "Don't you have a jeep at home? Isn't the jeep faster? Are you reluctant to drive it?"
Jiang Xia was putting a scarf on Zhou Chenglei when he heard this and said angrily, "We only have a tractor. Do you need one? You don't need to call an ambulance yourself! A Lei, get down!"
Zhou Bingqiang's wife: "..."
Zhou Bingqiang had already put the bed board on the tractor and said hurriedly: "I'm sorry, your aunt is just too worried! Thank you for your help!"
Then he said to his wife, "Hurry up! The jeep has seats that cannot be laid flat."
Zhou Bingqiang's wife hurriedly climbed onto the tractor.
Jiang Xia rolled her eyes at her: "Is it your fault for being so picky? You just cause trouble for others every day! Last time, you caused Zhou Chenglei to get hurt, and we didn't even bother with it!"
Zhou Chenglei shook Jiang Xia's hand and said, "Go back to the house! I'll be back soon."
Jiang Xia smiled at him and said, "Drive the tractor carefully. There is no rush. Safety is important!"
Zhou Chenglei nodded: "I know."
After Jiang Xia finished speaking, he stepped aside and let the tractor drive away.
Zhou Chenglei drove away on a tractor.
Zhou Bingqiang's wife looked at Jiang Xia and couldn't help muttering in her heart: The rich girl really has a bad temper. Only the people in the Zhou family can tolerate this kind of temper of the young lady!
She had seen these days that her family treated her like a princess.
Tsk, I married a ancestor! Then she thought of Wen Wan again.
Wen Wan is not much better. Jiang Xia usually does some housework, including washing vegetables, cooking, and cleaning.
Wen Wan is simply a lazy and greedy person!
She reads and translates every day and doesn't do any housework. When asked to cook, she says she will vomit at the smell of cooking fumes.
In this comparison, Jiangxia is better, and Jiangxia's family is powerful.
Wen Wan’s parents were reluctant to send over two kilograms of mutton, and instead sent over a sheep’s head and heart!
I’m really impressed!
