Zhao Gang is indeed a seasoned veteran; his ability to maintain balance is quite impressive.
After thinking about it, Expert Liu agreed that Zhao Gang's words made sense, and thus agreed to let the troops take the torpedo away.
Seeing that the matter had been resolved, Fu Wan walked over to Zhao Gang's side.
"Leader Zhao, I'll be able to sleep more peacefully once this thing is taken away."
I also have a suggestion; I wonder if you'd be interested?
Zhao Gang had always felt it was a loss not to bring Fu Wan under his command, so when he heard Fu Wan offer some advice, there was no reason not to listen.
"Tell me about it."
“When fishermen are fishing here, they might catch these things of unknown origin, just like I have. But since no one knows what they are, many people choose to throw them back into the sea.”
I was thinking that perhaps the leadership could arrange for someone to spread the word more in the village and even the nearby villages, so that everyone would report any such items they found immediately.
Zhao Gang had also wondered why the Fisheries Administration Bureau had never received a report like Fu Wan's before, but now he felt that Fu Wan's suggestion made some sense.
Seeing that he did not object, Fu Wan continued, "Although the common people do not recognize these things and do not know what torpedoes are, if we tell them that this is related to national security..."
"If you give us some more reward money, I think you'll receive a lot of messages from fishermen in various villages afterward, Leader Zhao."
Yes, there was money to be made and a sense of responsibility; Zhao Gang felt the plan was feasible almost immediately.
"I've noted this down. I'll hold a meeting when I get back and arrange for someone to implement it."
Fu Wan nodded with a smile. In the modern era, fishermen have a very high awareness of safety. Almost anything that those countries like the United States want to cause trouble put out will be caught by fishermen and handed over to them in no time.
If the relevant departments take the materials back, dismantle them, and further refine their own technology, wouldn't they be able to develop relevant products for our country?
Isn't this just feeding us the technology?
Thinking of this, Zhao Gang was immediately filled with enthusiasm. He would start spreading the word right away, and he wanted all the fishermen in his jurisdiction to have this awareness!
The villagers watched with curiosity as the people who had entered Fu Lao's house carried a large object out together.
Village Chief Fu stood outside shooing people away, "Go back, all of you! Are you all just bored and have nothing better to do?"
"Village chief, what incredible thing has Elder Fu found?"
When Village Chief Fu saw that it was Wang Zhaodi who asked the question, he became even more impatient.
"You've finished all your chores at home, haven't you? You've all eaten too much, haven't you? Keep this to yourself. If you go around telling everyone, I'll have you all arrested and sent to jail!"
Wang Zhaodi was ultimately afraid of the old village chief's authority, so she didn't say anything more. Seeing this, the other villagers also went home.
Bai Qianzhou bid farewell to Ye Xiaocui and the others, and Zhao Gang also rushed to the county with his men, even declining Ye Xiaocui and Boss Fu's invitation to stay for dinner.
He was focused on going back to hold a meeting and promote the cause.
After everyone left, Fu Wan slapped her forehead. Oh no, she forgot to tell Zhao Gang about the giant clam shell again.
She has such a bad memory. Oh well, I'll just look for him when I go to the county!
...
After a busy morning, fortunately, Fu Wan's family had many members, and the several hundred pounds of abalone were quickly cleaned and prepared.
Only fifteen abalone pearls were found in all the abalone, and many of them were still attached to the abalone shell.
Fu San had been waiting at home after delivering goods in the morning. When he heard Fu Ming say that the abalone was ready, he drove his tricycle over in a hurry.
"Third Uncle, are you sending this abalone to the county?"
Fu Wan wanted to strike while the iron was hot and go to the county with Fu San to process the abalone pearls in her hand. She could also take the giant clam shells with her and send them to the Fisheries Administration Bureau.
She planned to polish and keep the one that Fu Ling had previously obtained, while the others only wanted to exchange the abalone pearls for money, so this task fell to Fu Wan.
Fu San was worried about having no one to talk to on the way, but when he heard that Fu Wan wanted to come along, he immediately agreed.
However, Fu Wan immediately encountered a problem, and Fu Ling also wanted to go along.
"Mom, I want to go too!"
Fu Ming was also eager to try, "Awan, why don't I go with you!"
"Perfect, I can carry Lingling on my back."
Fu Wan was also convinced. It was just a trip to the county, so she could just go.
So, in addition to Fu Wan and Fu San, two more people went out to sell abalone pearls.
Fortunately, the weather has turned to autumn, and there was a bit of a breeze this afternoon, so the group of people on the tricycle didn't feel hot.
Fu Ling was even happier, not caring at all about the smell of the abalone basket next to her, chattering away the whole way.
She would talk about funny things that happened between her and Fu Honghong, and then she would talk about which new friend she had made.
Finally, he mysteriously pulled out four candies from his pocket, giving one not only to Fu Wan and Fu Ming, but also to Fu San, who was driving a tricycle.
"Oh, our Lingling is so sensible! Grandpa will take you to buy snacks later!"
Before long, the tricycle arrived in the county town.
Fu San asked Fu Ming and Fu Wan to take the children to Feng Ji's place where he bought and sold pearls, while he himself rode a tricycle to deliver goods to Boss Liu.
Fu Wan had met Feng Ji once before when she sold oyster beads, and this time she knew the way very well. In just a few minutes, the two adults and one child turned into Feng Ji's shop.
Fu Wan knocked on the shop door as before. Feng Ji, who was dozing off nearby, quickly got up when he heard the sound.
"Who is it? Oh, little girls, it's you!"
Feng Ji still remembered Fu Wan; after all, the counterfeit silver coins she discovered are now on display in the city museum.
"It's me, Uncle Feng. How have you been?"
Feng Ji smiled, a rare occurrence. "Easy to say, you've got plenty of bones, that's all you do to live!"
Fu Ming also greeted Feng Ji, and Fu Ling sweetly called him "Grandpa Feng," which prompted Feng Ji to take out the chocolates he had been saving from his drawer.
"Speak, what brings you here today? You didn't just come to see this old man, did you?"
Feng Ji, with his hands behind his back, gestured for Fu Wan and the others to sit down. Knowing his personality, Fu Wan immediately took out her own cloth bag.
"I've acquired a few abalone pearls; could you please take a look at them, Uncle Feng?"
Upon hearing the name "abalone pearl," Feng Ji quickly put on his reading glasses.
"These abalone pearls haven't been polished yet, but the color is quite good."
He thought for a moment and gave a price: "I can offer 31 for the larger abalone pearls and 15 for the smaller ones."
Fearing that Fu Wan might think the price was too low, he quickly explained, "Polishing these abalone beads also requires manual labor, so I didn't make any extra money off you."
Fu Wan found the price acceptable, so the fourteen abalone pearls, five large and nine small, were sold for a total of 285 yuan.
After selling the abalone pearls, Fu Wan was going to the Fisheries Administration Bureau to find Zhao Gang.
The giant clam shell in my arms was extremely hot to the touch.
She hadn't walked more than a few steps when Fu Ling clutched her stomach and said, "Mommy, I need to go to the toilet."
Fortunately, there was a public restroom not far away. Fu Wan led her there, and just then, an old lady with a short-haired child came out of the restroom, cursing and swearing.
The child's features were delicate, clearly indicating she was a girl.
