"The books Ayan reads are all in foreign languages, which I can't understand. I can only read the words she translates."
The chubby girl paused after she finished speaking.
Fortunately, Professor Shen didn't ask any further questions, otherwise she wouldn't have been able to explain it either.
Lin Atai didn't think there was anything wrong with it; the fact that the bookstore sold it meant that it was now considered acceptable to read it.
Even her adopted son has been invited back to China; the policies will only become more and more relaxed in the future.
Lin Ziyan came out of the room, and she even marked the parts she didn't quite understand.
She wouldn't underestimate Professor Shen; professors of this era would become prominent figures in textbooks.
“These books, and the one about fish farming…” Lin Ziyan handed the books to Shen Hai.
Shen Hai flipped through the book, noticed the notes beside it, glanced at them casually, and nodded.
These are not books for undergraduate students, and these books are not cheap.
With his current university teacher's salary and subsidies, he would have to save every penny for three months to afford it.
"I'll bring some books next time I come; I can answer the questions you marked now..."
Lin Ziyan sat to the side, listening attentively, secretly marveling at the scene.
Sure enough, Professor Shen knew a lot, even more than her former graduate advisor.
Lin Atai and Fatty exchanged a glance, then silently cleared the dishes from the table and went into the kitchen.
…
At this moment, in the largest conference room of the municipal government,
The air was thick with smoke, and each leader had a cigarette between his fingers.
Because of the naval shelling last night, people from Beijing were dispatched overnight and arrived in Fukushi this morning.
The city leaders who rushed over whispered among themselves, but couldn't reach a conclusion.
Minister Xie, in charge of marine management, squinted at the group of people in the conference room, a slight twitch at the corner of his mouth, but said nothing.
Coast Guard Minister Shen Cong sat calmly, showing no sign of panic about being held accountable.
A series of hurried footsteps came from the doorway.
Minister Feng from the Ocean Administration Bureau, dispatched by Beijing Municipality, entered the conference room.
He gave his secretary a wink.
All the windows in the conference room were opened, and the smoke dissipated in no time.
The ceiling fan was blowing overhead, making a creaking sound.
"Chen Cong, tell me what happened last night." Minister Feng's expression was serious, but his tone was very calm.
He rushed over from the airport and received a call from his teacher.
Meanwhile, the Secretary of the Navy also gave instructions from his superiors.
"After more than ten warnings, the cargo ship kept running around the maritime boundary line and had no intention of leaving. After the last warning, the other party even provoked our coast guard and disregarded our warnings."
“These people are not ordinary cargo ships; they are pirates who roam the high seas. There was a very serious incident in a nearby fishing village where a crew member was killed, and the other side admitted to it directly…” Shen Cong recounted the details, clenching his fist.
They revealed the key to the crew's deaths; otherwise, Shen Cong wouldn't have given the order to fire.
The incident was not made public, and the outside world did not know the details of the crew members' deaths. The fact that they could reveal the key information suggests that they were the pirates who committed the crime.
Minister Feng lifted his eyelids and looked at Chen Cong.
So the instructions given by the Navy were just warnings and no questioning?
Minister Xie, who is in charge of marine management, said, "The port was closed for a period of time as a result, but after discussion, we decided to reopen it."
"If we really have to take responsibility, I am willing to share the responsibility with Minister Shen."
Minister Xu, who is in charge of port management, said, "I am also willing to share the responsibility. It was we who advocated opening the port at the time, otherwise it would not have attracted pirates again."
Minister Feng glanced at them and waited for a while before only these few people took the initiative to assume responsibility.
"Your superiors want you to write a detailed investigation report and explain the situation clearly."
"Of course, I will also investigate the veracity of what you have said."
Minister Feng said sternly, his gaze sharply sweeping over the group.
…
One week later,
Lin Ziyan was so busy that she barely had time to breathe. Two shrimp farm owners from nearby came to her door to sign cooperation agreements.
She's going to have to worry about shrimp spawn again.
Now she suddenly remembered the woman who sold shrimp seedlings in the city.
That woman's shrimp breeding skills are truly admirable.
The shrimp larvae I bought from her grew to be large and were less prone to disease.
"Fatty, let's go beachcombing today!" Lin Ziyan put on her straw hat, wanting to give up.
The more worried she became, the less she wanted to stay at home and overthink things.
Fat girl, "..."
"Yay!! I want to go too." Third sister Jiaojiao immediately found her straw hat and picked up her small bucket.
It's the weekend, and my second sister, Jiaojiao, is doing her homework at home. She hurriedly stuffs her homework into her green cloth bag, saying, "I want to go too."
"Xiaoxiao, don't worry, we're waiting for you..." Lin Ziyan called out, and a commotion erupted in the backyard.
She smiled, put on her arm sleeves, and was fully armed again.
Jiaojiao had already gotten quite tanned, wearing shorts and a short-sleeved shirt. When we tried to put a long-sleeved light jacket on her, she immediately took it off because she felt too hot.
If Lin Ziyan hadn't insisted on wearing a hat, she probably would have already taken it off by now.
"Big sister, I'm ready, let's go!" The second sister, Xiaoxiao, put on a straw hat, wearing short sleeves and shorts, instead of the long sleeves she had prepared.
Lin Ziyan shook her head and took Jiaojiao's hand as they walked outside.
At this moment, golden light filled the sky, piercing through the clouds, stretching across the sky in strands, like the strings of a harp.
When they arrived at the beach, the sun was already setting.
Fatty, "Where did you find the bubble fish last time?"
“My father squatted by the sea for almost a month and didn’t see a single fish.”
Jiaojiao: "I...found it."
She smiled so hard her eyes turned into crescent moons, patted her small chest, and looked very proud.
Lin Ziyan pinched her little cheek, "That's right, it was Jiaojiao who found it."
The chubby girl looked at Jiaojiao and started to complain about her younger brother again.
Jiaojiao hugged Lin Ziyan's leg, "Fatty sister, I don't want to switch with Er Gouzi."
The second sister, Xiaoxiao, smiled shyly and tugged at her younger sister's hair.
"Let's go, if we can find fish, we'll add some dishes to dinner tonight!" As soon as Lin Ziyan finished speaking, Jiaojiao let go of her hand and ran towards the beach.
The second sister, Xiaoxiao, hurriedly chased after her.
"Ayan, where is it easier to find bubble fish?" the chubby girl asked疑惑地.
She always felt there must be some skill involved, otherwise how could Ah Yan and the others have found it on their first visit?
"Under the reef, under the bubbling sand..." Lin Ziyan kept looking in the direction of Jiaojiao and the others.
She jogged after them, worried that they might head towards the higher waves.
The chubby girl muttered to herself, "No wonder Dad can't find me..."
The group parted ways just like that.
Lin Ziyan followed her sisters, carrying a small bucket, and strolled along the beach.
"Yellow croaker, sister..." Jiaojiao picked up a fish and put it into the bucket.
She walked over quickly, saw the yellow croaker in the bucket, and blinked.
Jiaojiao's luck...
Can you even catch yellow croaker?
"Sister... there's more..."
Lin Ziyan watched Jiaojiao rush into the sea, then she dropped the bucket and ran over.
A towering wave surged forth, sweeping across the land like a ferocious beast...
Lin Ziyan's ears were filled with water, and the surroundings became quiet for a moment before returning to normal.
“Jiaojiao…”
She heard her second sister's roar.
Lin Ziyan saw Jiaojiao being swept away by the waves...
