Chapter 721: No Fear of Life and Death
As if he didn't understand, Shen Yanming smiled and said, "Yes, but I have already used up this year's vacation time this time, so I will be busy when I go back. If any friends need you, I will ask them to come to you."
Xiao Zhao's eyes lit up for a moment, but soon dimmed again. Although the other party said so, he knew that only a few people had the "financial resources" to travel.
But he still nodded, "Thank you very much, I'll leave you my contact information, call me if you need anything."
"Sure." Shen Yanming did not refuse, but did not take the initiative to leave his contact information. Instead, he thought of a question: "Why didn't you consider express delivery?" If there is a trustworthy buyer, the transaction can be completed through express delivery.
Xiao Zhao was stunned when he heard this, and looked at Shen Yanming in surprise for a long time before saying, "Brother, how long has it been since you last shopped online?"
Chen Yanming blinked: "It seems like it's been two years. We have everything we need at home, and we don't usually go online." Various disasters often cause the planet to lose Internet access, and he sometimes forgets to use his mobile phone.
Xiao Zhao clicked his tongue twice: "No wonder. Nowadays, almost all online stores are closed down because there is not enough postage. Do you know what postage is? It's food!"
Shen Yanming was not surprised, "Then, if an individual spends some food, it should be possible to mail it, right?"
"Of course, but it's not cost-effective. Just think about it, one-third of the goods have to be sent to the post office. Doesn't it sound ridiculous?"
Shen Yanming smiled: "It's not bad, after all, they have to take a big risk."
"I know, that's why everyone understands, but they just don't know how to use it." Xiao Zhao sighed, "It is said that every time a disaster occurs, more than four digits of postmen die."
Shen Yanming did not continue discussing this issue with him, because it was really sad.
He changed the subject: "I see you have kept a lot of live fish. Are these also going to be put on the market?"
Xiao Zhao shook his head. "A small portion, most of them are eaten by ourselves. It's hot now, and energy is tight. There is not enough ice to store live fish, so we can only rely on the sun to dry them. Only on the last day will we harvest a batch of live fish, some of which we eat ourselves, and the rest are given as snacks to nearby residents."
Shen Yanming nodded, indicating that he understood. He asked him some more questions about sailing, and the atmosphere between the two of them became lively again.
Near noon, Shen Yanming saw many people walking from the shore to the seaside. They walked in groups, with slightly frowned faces.
Xiao Zhao greeted one of the groups, and Shen Yanming listened nearby without interrupting.
After they dispersed, Xiao Zhao explained: "Those people just now are the ones who took over from us to go out to sea."
Shen Yanming said: "I found that they all seemed unhappy."
Xiao Zhao did not deny it, "I'm afraid I won't be able to come back if I go out."
"Didn't you say the sea has been very calm in the past year?"
Xiao Zhao smiled and shook his head: "Brother, there is no such thing as a smooth journey. Isn't the lack of waves the problem?"
Shen Yanming's heart was tugged. Xiao Zhao continued, "The coastal cities haven't encountered typhoons in the past year. Do you really think the higher-ups don't know? They know everything, but they just can't do anything about it."
Shen Yanming was silent. Xiao Zhao smiled and patted his shoulder: "I don't care, why are you so worried? Don't worry, go back and live a good life. Don't come here again in the future."
"If there is a chance, you..." Shen Yanming wanted to persuade him not to go out to sea again, but he was so clear-headed, could he really not know? Since he was still going out to sea, it meant that he had a reason to go out.
“Everyone is mortal in this world, but I will leave my loyalty to shine in history.” Xiao Zhao recited a poem.
Shen Yanming was not as aware as the other party, and felt a little ashamed. He used his consciousness to search in the space, trying to see if there was anything that could help the other party.
In fact, he really had no other choice. Because the stored supplies, except for food, could not be taken out. He bought so many hovercrafts abroad, he didn't even dare to use them himself, let alone give them to the other party.
Finally, he picked and chose from the pills and put together a small box. Shen Yanming called it a "life-saving medicine box", hoping that it could give him a chance to survive in a critical moment.
However, he is still on the road, so he can't say it.
In Xianshui Village, Bi Qiaoan had finished lunch, but Shen Yanming had not returned yet.
An An Nuan Nuan asked several times, and she couldn't stand it anymore, so she called Shen Yanming: "Dear, why haven't you come back yet?"
Shen Yanming smiled, "The beach is too far away, I'm still on the way, are you and the child okay?"
"It's okay. I just had lunch. How about you? Have you eaten yet?"
"I just nibbled on a small piece of bread. I'll eat it properly when we get back." With someone by his side, Shen Yanming really didn't dare to offer anything good.
"Hmm..." Bi Qiaoan wanted to say something, but An An Nuan Nuan came over and shouted into the phone: "Dad, when will you be back?"
Shen Yanming's heart was filled with joy. "It will be almost there. About two hours later."
An An Nuan Nuan nodded seriously, "Then you have to hurry up and come back so that your aunt can cook you some delicious porridge."
"Okay, Dad, I'll try my best." Shen Yanming felt that his legs, which had been filled with lead, seemed to have regained strength, and he unconsciously sped up.
I chatted with the two babies for a while before hanging up the phone.
Xiao Zhao listened to the tiny bit of sound leaking out of the phone and guessed the content of their conversation.
Finally, he heard two sweet baby voices saying, "Daddy, goodbye~" Even this rough man felt his heart melt.
"You have two children?"
"Yes, twins, a boy and a girl. They are just two years old this year."
Xiao Zhao was very envious, and for some reason he said, "I don't have a partner yet."
Shen Yanming chuckled: "I'm not a matchmaker."
Xiao Zhao rolled his eyes and said, "I'm not asking you to introduce someone to me. I'm just, just complaining."
Shen Yanming nodded: "I know, but you can try to find one. In life, who knows what will happen in the next second. If you haven't experienced it, don't you think you will live in vain?"
Xiao Zhao hesitated: "I don't want to hurt the girl."
Shen Yanming shook his head: "Sometimes, as you said, there is no need to think too much. The world is changing rapidly. You guess that the next disaster may be the ocean, but who can tell whether being on the shore will be safer than being on the sea?"
Xiao Zhao was stunned, and felt that the fog that had been blocking his eyes was lifted. His mind suddenly became open, and all the resentment and grievances he had before disappeared. He nodded: "You are right!"
Shen Yanming smiled, but still reminded: "This is just a guess, maybe it will be the opposite. I said this just to tell you that although things are in human hands, sometimes you have to follow the will of heaven."
