People remained on both ships.
Feng Xuan was on board the Dong Sheng, while Xiao Guowen was on board the Feng Shou.
They started the engine and prepared to leave as soon as they saw everyone appear at the dock from the driver's cab.
Once everyone had boarded the boat, the two of them simultaneously shifted into reverse and accelerated.
The two boats moved backwards slowly away from the shore almost simultaneously, their sterns stirring up waves.
The twenty or thirty people following behind became anxious upon seeing this.
But there was nothing they could do but stand on the shore, jumping up and down and shouting.
Money is the ultimate test of human nature.
Faced with enormous profits, some people can uphold their principles and remain unmoved;
Some people, however, are blinded by greed and take risks.
At this moment, the twenty or thirty people standing on the shore shouting undoubtedly belong to the latter group.
As they watched the two ships drift further and further away, their expressions grew increasingly ferocious and distorted, and they began to curse loudly, their words filled with foul language.
Ah-chan and his friends didn't stand for it and started hurling insults at each other, their voices echoing throughout the entire dock.
Since they were safe for the time being, they no longer held back and vented their pent-up frustration and anger.
As the insults continued, someone couldn't help but resort to violence.
A pebble was thrown at him, and it was a close call; Ah-Can almost got hit.
Ah-Can glared angrily and shouted, "You bunch of bastards, do you want to die?"
As he spoke, he reached for his gun.
Fortunately, Han Qiwen, who was standing next to him, stopped him: "Ah Can, bear with it, don't be impulsive."
Feng Ye also said, "They can't do anything to us right now, they can only throw stones or something, there's no need for us to stoop to their level."
If you fire the gun, regardless of whether you hit anyone or not, the situation will escalate, and the nature of the matter will change.
Ah-chan then held back.
But the anger in his eyes had not subsided.
Seeing that Ah-Can and his group were hesitant to fire, the people on the shore became even more smug and began throwing more and more things at them.
There were pebbles, clods of earth, and even rotten fish and shrimp.
Fortunately, none of these people were very accurate.
Furthermore, the two ships were slowly retreating, and the distance between them was constantly increasing.
Most of the items couldn't be thrown onto the boat; they ended up in the water, splashing up sprays of water.
Even so, it still makes people extremely annoyed, yet there's nothing they can do about it.
There was nothing on the ship to throw back, leaving them in a very passive position.
Fortunately, the two ships quickly left the dock area and entered open water.
The two ships turned around and sped forward like arrows released from a bow.
The waves plowed by the stern rolled and dispersed to both sides, making a splashing sound.
Feng Ye finally felt relieved and ran to the sleeping pod to lock up the money.
By the time he returned to the deck, the ship was already far away, and even the people on the dock could hardly see them anymore, only blurry figures.
"Brother Ye, do you think it's possible that those guys could catch up with us in a boat?"
Ah-chan asked with some concern.
"Yes, they should be able to guess how much our goods sold for, and they might actually come after us."
"I also think it's very likely, after all, it's such a lot of money..."
"Yeah, making too much money all at once is definitely eye-catching..."
Everyone was a little worried.
"Don't worry, even if they chase after us, we're not afraid."
Feng Ye said in a deep voice, "On the shore, we still have some reservations."
However, things are different at sea.
If they dare to chase after them, they're courting death.
We have guns on both of our boats; we're not to be trifled with.
Upon hearing this, everyone nodded, calmed down, and their expressions softened considerably.
"So, should we continue out to sea, or go home?"
"Go straight back. Keeping too much money on the ship isn't safe enough..."
Before he could finish speaking, Feng Xuan suddenly leaned out of the driver's seat and called out, "Ah Ye, Ah Can, come up here for a moment."
"They're here."
Feng Ye responded, instructed the boatmen to keep an eye on the situation behind them, and then went to the wheelhouse with A-Can.
"Brother, what's up?"
“I just spoke with Uncle Jun. The Harvest ship made over 90,000 yuan this time, and he wants to use that money to order another ship. He asked me to ask for your opinion.”
Ah-chan was taken aback: "Order another boat?"
"Yes, it's just enough for the down payment. He said if we all agree, he'll dock in the city and go to the shipyard to order the ship."
Feng Xuan continued, "I have no objection. Anyway, I don't own many shares. It's mainly up to you."
Ah Chan replied without hesitation, "I own the same shares as Xuan Ge, so I have no objection."
Then, both of them looked at Feng Ye, waiting for his reply.
They each only own 5% of the shares, and their share is only a little over 4,500 yuan.
Feng Ye, on the other hand, was able to get multiple pieces, a very large amount.
Feng Ye pondered for a moment: "There's nowhere at home where we need the money, and it'll just get moldy if we leave it here. Let's order it."
"Alright, let's connect with Uncle Jun now."
As Feng Xuan spoke, he picked up the walkie-talkie, intending to contact Xiao Zhaojun and inform him of their decision.
"Wait a minute, don't rush."
"What's wrong?"
"I'm thinking, should we order another boat?"
"ah?"
Feng Ye continued, "We reaped a great harvest this time, earning more than 140,000 yuan, which is more than enough to pay the deposit for a boat."
“But we already have two ships that are due for delivery by the end of the year, and the final payment is about 400,000 yuan.”
Feng Xuan said worriedly, "Won't ordering another one put too much pressure on us?"
