The ending, naturally, shows Fu Qiang being taken to the village doctor for treatment and bandaging, with Fu Lao Er paying compensation.
However, Fu Lao Er's family didn't have two hundred yuan either. Under the suppression of Fu Lao Village Chief, Fu Lao Er took out the remaining fifty yuan from his family and reluctantly gave it to Fu Shi.
"Ah Shi, this is all the money we have left at home, you..."
Fu Lao Er completely lost his previous condescending attitude towards the rune stones, and his words even carried a hint of pleading.
After thinking for a moment, Fu Shi finally accepted the money from his hand.
This made Fu Lao Er's face even more ashen. He had thought that Fu Shi would still remember the old family ties, but who knew that this kid had no mercy at all now.
Thinking about it, he couldn't help but feel annoyed. If Fu Shi hadn't been putting a mousetrap by the bed every now and then, Fu Qiang wouldn't have been caught.
Fu Shi glanced at him twice and guessed what the man was thinking.
He stuffed the money into his pocket, then said to Fu Lao Er, "The compensation is done, I don't want the remaining hundred yuan."
That's the end of this matter. Don't come here again. If I can put one mousetrap by the bed, I can put dozens of mousetraps in here.
If there's a next time, I won't be so lenient.
Village Chief Fu chimed in, "That's right. You lot have all severed ties with Fu Shi. Now that you've done something like this, it's best if you don't associate with each other anymore."
"If I catch you doing this again, forget about the talisman, I'll send you all to the police station!"
Damn it, he hasn't even finished his meal yet, and he's already being called here to clean up the mess.
Fu Lao Er didn't dare to lift his head after being scolded by the village chief, while Wang Zhao Di slumped to the side, crying and sobbing, trying to soften Fu Shi's heart with this appearance.
But the runestone is no longer the same as before; it is now the Niohuru runestone.
For him, family and relatives were superfluous.
All he wants now is to make money, of course, without violating any moral principles.
Seeing that there was no more excitement to watch, Fu Wan and Fu Ming and the others turned around and headed home.
Fu Ming couldn't help but sigh. He knew Fu Qiang was useless, but he didn't know he was this useless now!
"Ah Wan, we have to put all our things away, or that guy will have his eye on them."
If we're talking about the richest family in the whole village, it's probably the Fu family now.
Although it's unknown how long Fu Qiang will stay quiet, it's also uncertain when he might set his sights on Boss Fu's family.
Fu Wan waved her hand, "Don't worry, I've hidden everything in the house. If he can find it, I'll admire him."
She hid the things in several different places, all in her own room, so Fu Qiang probably wouldn't be able to find them.
What's more, there's Wangcai at home. Wangcai has been staying at Master Fu's house for more than two months now, and has long since transformed from a little puppy into a fierce little wolf.
Moreover, because Old Master Fu had a good diet, his wolf genes were fully unleashed. Not only was his fur shiny, but he would also squat at the doorway dozens of meters away, ready to warn anyone who dared to approach him.
In addition, although Wangcai is playful, it is limited to the yard. It rarely leaves home, especially after Fu Wan and others went to sea, it stayed in the yard without moving.
If Fu San hadn't frequently accompanied Boss Fu and the others in and out, it would have even cursed at Fu San for feeding it.
When the group returned home, Ye Xiaocui had just boiled a pot of water. Seeing Fu Ming and the others return, she urged them to eat first and then take a bath.
Fu Ming glanced at his filthy clothes, but still carried a bucket of water to the back, intending to take a bath before discussing dinner.
The food is already heating up in the rice cooker, so a little longer won't make a difference.
Fu Wan sat down and then remembered the collection station in her pocket, so she quickly took it out and examined it closely.
The haul from this voyage was actually quite good; some stable fish prices have already been recorded.
Octopus and squid were sold together at 95 cents per pound, totaling 382 pounds, which is 362.9 yuan. Prawns were sold at 60 cents per pound, weighing 420 pounds, which is 252 yuan.
The pomfret weighed 125 jin, at 85 cents a jin, totaling 106.3 yuan; the large yellow croaker weighed 2.8 jin, and Fu San wrote down a flat price of 50 yuan on it.
As for grouper and pufferfish, since they are all live animals, the prices will be much better than before, so Fu San did not write down the specific prices.
Five catties and six ounces of threadfin bream, sixteen catties and six ounces of yellowtail amberjack, five catties and eight ounces of sea cucumber, and twenty-six catties and three ounces of rhinoceros shrimp.
As for the snails, the details were also written out: red snails were 50 cents a pound, 232 pounds, totaling 116 yuan; Buddha's hand snails were 60 cents a pound, 183 pounds, totaling 109 yuan and 80 cents; and bull's eye snails were 75 cents a pound, 102 pounds, totaling 76 yuan and 50 cents.
Fu Laoda kept some of the whitebait and eel for himself and gave some to Fu Jian and Uncle Fu who helped him.
In other words, apart from rare fish, the ordinary fish alone had already brought in 1,073.5 yuan.
The sardines weighed a total of 582 catties. Fu San weighed them and wrote the weight on the back. This was also Fu Wan's request for him to help with the weighing.
Although these fish are all going to the cannery, the accounts still need to be settled.
So the cannery will settle the price of these sardines with Fu Wan and then transfer it into Boss Fu's account.
Overall, this trip overseas was quite profitable, although not as much as before, but the experience was good.
Jack and Fu Fengying, in particular, did not look haggard after a day at sea; on the contrary, they looked even more radiant.
"Ah Wan, we have to leave the day after tomorrow."
Jack just came back and, after hesitating for a few seconds, told Fu Fengying that they were about to leave.
Fu Fengying had experienced many ups and downs in her life, and she knew from the beginning that she would have to return to America sooner or later.
So while Boss Fu and Ye Xiaocui were busy in the backyard, she spoke to Fu Wan first.
Fu Wan looked at Jack, who was sitting at the table eating, with some surprise.
This guy can really eat. He ate two bowls of noodles on the boat and is still eating without even lifting his head.
"Ahem, Jack, tell Wan what's going on."
Fu Fengying felt a little embarrassed. It was only because the Fu family was now wealthy that she realized that Jack would have ruined his younger brother.
Upon hearing his name, Jack looked up blankly, then snapped out of it, wiped the rice grains from his mouth, and told Fu Wan about his visa expiring.
Fu Wan hadn't been able to renew her visa before it expired, so it was a pity that they would have to come back to visit another time.
"Auntie, don't worry. If you really miss us, I'll take Mom and Dad to America to see you."
Fu Fengying nodded repeatedly as she listened, but in her heart she was calculating how likely it was that she would be able to return to retire. Given her assets, buying a house nearby wouldn't be a problem.
