The villagers were busy scrambling for the fish caught in the mudflats, and Fu Wan and her group took the opportunity to push their wheelbarrows back home.
Just kidding, if it gets any later, there will be more and more people on the beach, and then a lot of people will definitely surround us and ask us all sorts of questions.
Robert, Jack, and Tom were seeing a unicycle for the first time and were very curious about it the whole way.
The three of them were particularly astonished to see adults pushing children in wheelbarrows to the beach to go clamming.
As soon as Fu Wan and the others moved the fish into the yard, Robert and the others couldn't wait to examine the wheelbarrow.
How does a single wheel move goods in a balanced manner?
Following the example of Boss Fu, Jack grasped the two handles of the unicycle and lifted it up with a gentle lift.
"Hey friends, I think I've learned how to drive this car!"
Jack happily pushed the wheelbarrow forward several steps, while Robert and Tom watched with great curiosity.
Robert's eyes lit up, and he stepped forward and grabbed Jack.
"Wow, Jack, you're amazing! Can I sit on it?"
The implication was that Jack should push him along.
Jack naturally refused. He wasn't stupid; Robert was nearly 1.9 meters tall and weighed at least 140 or 150 pounds.
The weight was pressing down on the wheelbarrow, and he had to use a lot of strength to lift it.
Not to mention pushing it around.
Seeing that Jack disagreed, Robert, who came from a merchant family, instinctively came up with a solution.
Use money!
Robert Sr. once said, "There is nothing in the world that money can't solve!"
"Jack, if you push me around once, I'll stab you ten times!"
Jack remained unmoved. "Twenty cuts!"
Robert thought for a moment, hesitated for two seconds, and then nodded in agreement.
"Sure, twenty cuts it is!"
He must try riding in a wheelbarrow today!
Jack was a competent driver; once he received payment, he was bound to do his job conscientiously.
Robert, without any instruction, got on the wheelbarrow and found a good spot to sit down.
Once Jack saw that he was settled, he took a deep breath, lifted himself up, and then began to push the wheelbarrow around the tree in front of Old Master Fu's house.
It has to be said that Jack is quite clever. Although it was his first time pushing a unicycle, he balanced very well. After two or three laps, Robert not only did not fall off, but was also a little reluctant to stop.
The two of them had a great time, while Tom watched from the sidelines, extremely envious.
"Robert, it's my turn, it's my turn."
As soon as Robert got off the wheelbarrow, Tom eagerly stepped onto it.
Just as Jack was about to negotiate with him, Fu Ming's shout came from the courtyard.
"Jack, come quick and get me some water!"
Little brat, you'll have to work when you get to Fu Family Village!
Fu Ming got along better with Jack and was easier to manage.
Upon hearing that he wouldn't be making any more money from Dao Le, Jack happily ran into the yard.
Robert and Tom were left looking at each other in bewilderment. With no one to push the cart, Tom was very disappointed. Just as he was about to get off the wheelbarrow, Robert's eyes lit up and he came up with a new idea.
"Tom, how about I push you? You give me twenty, no, fifteen dollars will do."
"Fifteen cuts?"
Tom hesitated; he had never seen Robert push a wheelbarrow before and didn't know if he was reliable.
"Can you push this cart, Robert?"
"Of course I can! This car is so simple, I'm perfectly fine with it!"
Robert patted his chest confidently, "Tom, you know, I've been patrolling the farm with old Robert since I was three years old. I can figure out how to drive this kind of vehicle just by looking at it once!"
Tom had also visited old Bert's estate, which was a very large garden that not only grew all kinds of fruits and vegetables, but also kept many small animals.
“Okay, Robert, I can agree to that. But I don’t have fifteen dollars, I can only give you ten.”
Tom was shrewd; he wasn't short of money, but he wanted to save some.
Ten cuts it is, at least the twenty cuts I just made have restored half of my health.
Robert nodded in agreement without much hesitation and waved his hand to signal Tom to get in the car.
He had just experienced the joy of riding in a vehicle; now, he was going to experience the fun of pushing a wheelbarrow.
Haha, he only spent ten dollars and got to experience pushing a stroller and riding in it. If old Robert knew, he would definitely praise him for being smart!
The two were negotiating under the tree when Fu Zhenhua happened to return from beachcombing.
The tide went out early this morning, and since it rained the day before and we couldn't go beachcombing, Fu Zhenhua got up very early to try his luck at the beach.
His daughter, Fu Honghong, has been in poor health ever since she fell into the water. She has been running a low-grade fever every few nights, and he and his wife have been going to the hospital every day. Their savings have long been depleted.
With his wages still outstanding this month, Fu Zhenhua was extremely worried and could only make more frequent trips to the seaside.
Fortunately, he had a good harvest today, catching a tiger grouper weighing a pound and a lot of mantis shrimp.
There were also more than a dozen abalone, as well as sea urchins and other things, filling a whole bucket.
Just as it was almost time for him to leave for work, he returned with the seafood. He was about to take a shower and change his clothes when he unexpectedly bumped into Tom and Robert whispering under a tree, seemingly discussing something.
Fu Zhenhua had only heard this kind of bird language on the radio before, and he found it rather strange, so he stood at the door and took a look.
The next second, to his astonishment, one of the two foreigners actually sat on the wheelbarrow, while the other raised his hands and pushed the wheelbarrow along with him.
That look is actually quite convincing!
Oh my god, what a ghost! Foreigners even push the old folks in their village!
"Father, Mother, Daughter-in-law, come quick! The foreigner from next door, Ah Wan's family, is playing with a bulldozer!"
Fu Zhenhua's parents were having breakfast in the yard when they heard this, so they simply took their bowls and went to the door.
"Wow, these foreigners can even push a dump truck!"
"That's right! I wonder how old these two kids are, they still love to play like Honghong and the others!"
"He looks about the same age as Zhenhua, I wonder if he's married or not..."
Fu Zhenhua had just washed his face when he heard his mother mention him.
He quickly interjected, "Mom, don't talk nonsense. They're much younger than me. Ah Ming said they're only eighteen or nineteen!"
"What, only eighteen or nineteen? They look much older than they are. They look like they're in their twenties or thirties!"
Grandma Fu slowly sipped her porridge. Things were getting better these days; they could even watch foreigners perform while they ate!
Fu Honghong slept well last night, and when she heard there was excitement outside, she skipped and hopped out.
"Robert, Robert, they look like they're watching us!"
Tom was the first to spot Fu Honghong and her group in front of the neighbor's door. When Robert heard that someone was watching, he became even more eager to show off.
He spun hard, trying to make the unicycle perform a sharp turn, but he lost control and the unicycle suddenly shot straight off the cement road.
Oh my god—
Tom was terrified in the car, his hands and feet trembling and he didn't know what to do with them.
Fu Honghong stared in disbelief for a long while before looking up.
"Grandma, are they fools?"
