"I didn't lead the charge! It was Lai Zi!"
Fu Qiang was pinned to the ground by several villagers, who, while struggling, did not forget to drag Fu Laizi into the water.
Fu Laizi truly felt like he was a hunter who had been hunting geese all day, only to have his eyes pecked by one.
Before he could even react, he was pinned to the ground by several villagers.
Fu Wan and Boss Fu came out of the room next door and walked up to the group of people.
"You guys are really something, stealing diesel from your own village! What if no one knows to start the boat and the engine burns out? I'd love to see how you compensate us!"
Fu Laizi, with a nonchalant air, said, "It wasn't my idea. Fu Qiang himself didn't like them and asked us for help!"
"It was clearly you who took money from Shen Guoliang and encouraged me to do this with you!"
Fu Qiang trembled at the sight of Boss Fu and instinctively retorted upon hearing this.
The fact that the Shen family was involved in this really infuriated Village Chief Fu.
The people from Shenjia Village have repeatedly come to Fujia Village to cause trouble. Do they really think that their village chief is a pushover?
"Arrest all the guys who usually hang out with them, then we'll go find the police!"
Better to kill the innocent than let the guilty go free. Take them to the police station for questioning!
With a wave of his hand, Village Chief Fu declared that he would send all these idle hooligans to the police station today, regardless of whether they had done anything wrong.
When the county and city leaders come back, all they will see is the simple and honest folk of Fujia Village.
The villagers, in a large group, took the man to the police station, and Fu Wan followed Fu Laoda home.
Several villagers greeted Fu Laoda on the way, and they all smiled and responded.
Sure enough, most of the villagers were still simple and kind.
The village chief sent everyone to the police station, and when he returned, he brought back a message.
The punishment for Shen Dongsheng has been announced. Because the Shen family failed to pay the compensation, the police station ordered him to serve a full year of labor reform.
Fu Wan was satisfied with the outcome of a year of labor reform. At least he wouldn't bother her and Shen Lingling's lives for another year.
After hearing again how the Shen family had bullied Fu Wan, Boss Fu was filled with anger and rage.
If Shen Dongsheng hadn't been arrested, he would have definitely gone and given that bastard a good beating.
They swore they would take good care of their daughter, and this is how they take care of her?
...
Another day passed, and the village chief got up early to call Fu Wan to the dock to wait for someone.
The experts from the county and city all came by boat!
Fu Wan and Village Chief Fu originally thought they would be going in their own boat, but yesterday the county called to say that they had brought a big boat.
Fu Wan was completely baffled as to how big the ship was, but Village Chief Fu was eagerly anticipating its arrival.
No one went out to sea today; the villagers were all waiting at the dock to watch the excitement.
"They're here! They're here!"
Fu San, who was standing in front, shouted, and everyone heard a loud whistle. A large ship flying a red flag slowly sailed in from a distance.
"My goodness, this ship is really impressive!"
Several villagers exclaimed in admiration. Fu Wan looked into the distance and saw that the boat was indeed much larger than her own small, dilapidated boat, and even the whole boat was painted with bright white paint.
A bright red flag fluttered in the wind on the ship, and the imposing presence of this large vessel could be felt from afar.
It's more accurate to call this a warship than a boat.
I don't know where these experts came from, they're really impressive.
"Ah Wan, this boat is so beautiful!"
Fu Ming stood behind Fu Wan, his eyes sparkling as he stared into the distance.
His leg has fully recovered, and he can walk quite a distance with the help of crutches.
He was getting restless at home and couldn't stand staying at home every day, so he came to the dock with Fu Wan and the others early this morning to watch the excitement.
"This should be a ship."
Fu Wan spoke in a low voice, which was heard by Boss Fu, who was sitting nearby.
In his previous life, when he was with Fu Wan, he also witnessed the increasingly powerful future of his motherland.
He had seen such large ships on TV when he was a ghost.
Amid the villagers' excitement, the large ship slowly approached the dock, and a group of neatly dressed people disembarked.
This must be the expert team the village chief mentioned.
Coincidentally, Fu Wan spotted a familiar face among the experts – Bai Qianzhou, with whom she had met several times before.
"This is Comrade Fu Wan from our village. She is the one who is helping you complete this mission with me."
The village chief introduced himself to the leader, and Fu Wan quickly gathered her thoughts, "Hello comrade, I am Fu Wan."
The man shook hands with Fu Wan. "Hello, comrade. I'm in charge of this salvage mission. You can just call me Zhao Gang."
The village chief hurriedly said, "How can I call you by your name directly? Awan, just call me Leader Zhao."
Fu Wan agreed, and Zhao Gang, being an impatient man, was eager to call people to go out to sea.
"Comrade, why don't we take advantage of this clear weather and have Comrade Fu Wan lead us to retrieve it?"
The weather in August is unpredictable, especially with the recent typhoon warnings. If the experts hadn't been so impatient, their mission wouldn't have been in such a rush.
Fu Wan naturally had no objection, and as the village chief, Fu would certainly accompany her.
And so, Fu Wan and Village Chief Fu boarded the ship with the expert team. Even as the ship sailed away, she could still hear the crowd on the shore talking amongst themselves.
"Boss Fu, your Ah Wan is amazing! She managed to get on such a big ship!"
"Yes, yes, this is the first of its kind in our village!"
"Our village is the best in the entire surrounding area!"
Fu Laoda and Ye Xiaocui listened with great delight in the crowd, while Fu Wan felt her face burning. Fortunately, she wasn't at the dock, otherwise she really wouldn't know how to respond to such flattery.
For this salvage operation, the county assigned five men to accompany Fu Wan; all of them were excellent swimmers.
Big ships are fast. In less than an hour, following the direction Fu Wan pointed out, the ship arrived at the approximate location where Fu Wan had found the silver coins last time.
"Captain, is this woman reliable?"
A tall man looked at Fu Wan, who was pointing out directions in the cockpit, and seemed somewhat unconvinced.
During the team meeting just now, the captain actually said that Fu Wan should be in charge.
“Several of us can work underwater for several tens of minutes. Maybe we shouldn’t let this woman go down. If something happens, we’ll have to rescue her.”
Bai Qianzhou happened to be not far from the man; he was the medical supervisor for this mission.
"Comrade Xue, if something happens to you, nothing will happen to her. Don't look down on female comrades."
"What do you, a doctor, know!"
Xue Qing was furious and wanted to go forward to argue, but was stopped by Captain Chen Long.
"Just follow orders, stop complaining!"
Xue Qing was still somewhat unconvinced. He glared at Bai Qianzhou before striding away.
Bai Qianzhou remained indifferent, continuing to gaze at the sea as if nothing had happened.
The ship had stopped, and Fu Wan stood on the deck, ready to go into the water.
"Hey, lady, are you sure you're okay going down there? This isn't shallow water!"
Standing on the deck, Xue Qing saw that Fu Wan was about to go directly into the water and couldn't help but ask a question.
This guy is such a country bumpkin, he doesn't need any tools, not even flippers, before he goes into the water!
That's absolutely outrageous!
Fu Wan shook her head, waved her hand, and flipped herself backward into the water. Xue Qing and the others quickly followed.
