The rain lasted for half an afternoon and a whole night, and showed no sign of stopping.
It was still raining when I woke up the next morning, and it got even heavier starting in the middle of the night.
The raincoats they bought overnight were rendered useless.
Feng Ye stood at the cabin door, looking at the rain outside, feeling truly helpless.
"This rain is really giving me a headache."
"That's right, if we miss a day, we'll lose several thousand yuan."
Ah-Can also came over and stood next to Feng Ye, looking out at the rain together.
"I don't know how many days it will last, I hope it will stop soon."
"Hopefully, but judging from the current trend, it might take a while longer."
"Alas, it's like the sky wanting to rain, or a mother wanting to remarry; there's nothing that can be done about it."
Feng Ye sighed, then changed the subject, saying, "Let's deposit the money while we're not at sea today."
Ah-Can nodded: "It's really not safe to keep so much money on the ship. It's safer to put it in the bank."
I've been here for six days and have earned a lot of money.
Adding to yesterday's 4265 pieces, the total has reached an astonishing number, all of which are locked in boxes in the cabin of the Rising Sun.
I hold them all in my hands, and it makes me quite happy to look at them every day.
However, it's not safe to keep so much money on a boat while traveling.
If it were like yesterday, only coming ashore when selling fish and spending the rest of the time at sea, it would be better.
However, we don't know how many days we'll be staying at the pier.
If someone starts watching you, you'll be in trouble.
They weren't afraid of being robbed; there were so many boats docked at the pier, and the police station was so close. Nobody would dare to do that.
What I fear is that a thief will steal the money without me noticing.
Therefore, it's better to save it if you can.
Feng Ye opened the box, counted the money with A-Can, and tidied it up.
Of course, you can't save them all.
I don't know how many days this rain will last, so I still need to set aside money for essential expenses.
They decided to store only the blocks and keep the rest locked in the box.
Afterwards, they put on their raincoats, said goodbye to the others, and disembarked together to head to the post office.
The post office is not yet separated into postal and telecommunications departments, so everyone still calls it the post office.
In fact, even in later years, many older people still habitually refer to the post office as the post and telecommunications bureau.
I asked a passerby for directions and walked for seven or eight minutes before arriving at the post office.
Changgu Island is a large island, after all, the town government is located here.
But the town itself is not very big.
It should be said that apart from a few large cities, most towns and cities have not yet developed and are not very large.
The post office building is a bit old, quite old, but overall it looks alright, at least it's clean and tidy.
Ah-chan felt a little awkward and didn't dare to go further in, so he deliberately lagged behind.
Feng Ye strode inside and went to the counter.
Those with money are the boss; what's there to be afraid of?
The staff inside did not show any disgust at the two people who came in, who reeked of fish.
Many people like this come in every day; some make phone calls, others send money home. It's become a common sight.
However, the staff weren't exactly enthusiastic; they just asked routinely, "What kind of service do you need? To buy stamps, send a letter, deposit money, or make a remittance?"
Feng Ye paused for a moment when he heard the word "stamp".
This is something he has a long-standing memory of.
When he returned from his rebirth, stamps, though still being issued, had become collectibles and were no longer necessities for daily communication.
Ordinary people don't need it, so naturally they won't pay attention to it.
He was one of them.
However, he had come across related videos when he was scrolling through short videos in his previous life.
I remember the video saying that some versions of stamps are ridiculously valuable, reaching tens of millions of dollars.
However, he couldn't remember which specific versions they were.
He wasn't really interested in these things; he was only surprised by their high value, which is why he stayed for a while.
Looking back now, I regret not having learned more about it in my past life.
If you know which stamps are valuable, you can try to collect them.
Unfortunately, there's no going back.
Moreover, now is not the time to regret.
Feng Ye brought his thoughts back to reality and said to the staff, "We're here to deposit money."
Have you ever opened an account with us?
"No, this is our first time here."
The staff member nodded, then took out a form and handed it to Feng Ye.
"Please fill out this form."
As she spoke, she pointed to Feng Ye's left, "There's a template here, fill it out according to it."
Feng Ye took the form, glanced at it, and was about to fill it out when he suddenly remembered something.
There's no internet yet, and computers are scarce. If he deposits money here, can he withdraw it across provinces?
"Excuse me, if I deposit money with you, can I withdraw it from another province?"
The staff member looked up at Feng Ye, seemingly unsurprised by the question.
"Are you a fisherman who came here to fish and wants to send money home?"
"Um."
"Then you should choose to wire the money,"
The staff member handed out another form and pointed to another template posted there: "Write it here."
Feng Ye glanced at the form; this time it was a remittance slip.
He filled in the information according to the template, and naturally filled in his wife as the recipient.
He then took out the money and handed it back along with the completed remittance form.
