Chapter 052 We Don’t Owe Money to Others

Lin Wanxia: “…”

Jiang Sinian opened his mouth but said nothing.

Chen Bin actually knew that they were faking their marriage, but it was not uncommon for a fake marriage to become real. He felt that the two of them were quite a good match, so he was speechless for a while.

The others didn’t know and agreed.

“That’s right, you two are still so clear. At worst, I can be the guarantor!”

“And me.”

“If it really doesn’t work, we can all be the guarantors.”

“…”

The purchase of the boat was settled.

A dozen people renovated the utility room in one afternoon.

The utility room was originally built with discarded bricks and firewood, but Lin Wanxia bought some thick waterproof cloth to cover the inner wall and built a thick layer of ice bricks to stick on the inside to serve as a temporary cold storage.

After the house was smashed, Lin Wanxia was planning to rebuild a cold storage.

Unexpectedly, Jiang Sinian understood her so well. He led people to demolish the utility room that was smashed before, and bought materials from the island city to build walls. Of

course, it couldn't be completed in one day, so everyone dispersed after dinner.

Jiang Sinian's comrades returned to the boat, and Chen Bin returned to his own home.

When Jiang Sinian came back after giving Xingxing a bath, Lin Wanxia had just cleaned up the mess.

"Thank you." Lin Wanxia thanked him, "How much is the material? I'll give it to you."

She originally wanted to wait until after the Chinese New Year to rebuild the house.

Jiang Sinian waved his hands, "I owe you so much, but two utility rooms won't cost much."

According to the fees Lin Wanxia charged for taking care of the children, he owed her five large brick houses, and building two utility rooms would only cost a few hundred yuan. Of

course, he didn't have a few hundred yuan, so he borrowed from his comrades.

Lin Wanxia took out a thousand yuan and stuffed it into Jiang Sinian's pocket, "We don't owe anyone money."

At least there's no need to owe such a small amount of money.

Jiang Sinian's heart moved when he heard the word "we".

Yes, the two are already husband and wife, and husband and wife are one, so his debt is naturally hers.

Pay it off now, and it will be the same as giving her the allowance in the future.

So he nodded.

Lin Wanxia was quite surprised that Jiang Sinian would be so easy to talk to.

By the next day, Jiang Sinian's comrades-in-arms did not come again. They were not free, so they could only come to help during the holidays.

However, seeing Lin Wanxia building a house, many people in the village came to help spontaneously.

Xingxing was responsible for playing with the children, while Lin Wanxia and several women who came to help boiled water and cooked.

Jiang Sinian had just recovered from a serious injury and could not move much, so he took the job of purchasing.

For so many people to eat, they had to buy ingredients.

When Jiang Sinian had free time, he went to the shore to watch Grandpa Sun and others repair the boat.

Since Lin Wanxia had a new boat, she had to get rid of the old one.

Lin Wanxia asked several friends to help promote this matter.

For example, Lei Yanjun and Chen Bin.

Grandpa Sun also helped to inquire.

The news soon reached Zhao Tiezhu's ears.

"Brother." Zhao Gangzhu walked into the room quickly with a happy look on his face, "You are right, women are really not easy to be scared. Lin Wanxia wants to sell the boat now."

Zhao Tiezhu, who had been sitting on a recliner with his eyes closed, opened his eyes and smiled, "Just say, what great things can a girl in her twenties achieve? Those little captains below are still thinking of relying on her? Ha!"

"That's right! When have they not made money following you, brother? They are too ungrateful. Brother, I don't think this matter can be let go. They need to be taught a lesson."

Zhao Tiezhu nodded, "Keep calm. You are always unstable. It's time to collect next year's management fee after another trip. This year, each ship will be charged an additional 10% management fee."

"This..." Zhao Gangzhu hesitated, "More and more people have been selling boats in the past two years, and our fleet has become fewer and fewer. Brother, with fewer boats, accidents are easy to happen."

"What are you afraid of?" Zhao Tiezhu raised his eyebrows and sneered, "We don't have much land here, and our ancestors have made a living by fishing at sea. What can they do after selling their boats? Old Liu sold his boat two years ago because he thought the management fee was too high. Didn't he buy the boat back and go out to sea with me this year?

I know some of them want to change fleets, but who can do it?"

Zhao Gangzhu nodded when he heard it. Yes! In recent years, my brother has increased the management fee every year. Which of those captains doesn't curse behind his back? No matter if they curse behind his back or in front of him.

It's not that there weren't captains who privately contacted fleets from other villages to join the ship, but no fleet took them.

He widened his eyes, somewhat surprised, "You are the one who interfered?"

Zhao Tiezhu shook his head, "What did I interfere with? I just had a meal with the captains of those fleets and said a few heartfelt words. I didn't say anything else, just that if a ship of their fleet accidentally had an accident in the vast ocean, would they be responsible?"

Zhao Gangzhu understood, his elder brother was threatening other fleets not to take the Zhao family fleet.

He gave Zhao Tiezhu a thumbs up, "Big brother is still awesome."

"Anything else?"

The tone of seeing him off was very obvious, Zhao Gangzhu shook his head, "Then I'll go back first." He

took a few steps and came back , "Brother, what about Sun Dapeng? How to deal with him? His grandfather is the old captain

and it was he who took us out to sea. Do you want to give him some face and let Dapeng come back?" Zhao Tiezhu "tsk", "He doesn't give me face, why should I give him face? When he asked his son to go with Lin Wanxia, ​​why didn't he think about whether it was a slap in my face? You don't know, those captains below have come to him many times to discuss ideas to fight against me. This time, even if old man Sun kneels down to me, I will not let Sun Dapeng join our fleet again."

"But old man Sun has a high prestige among the fishermen, so he will know these things?"

Zhao Tiezhu stared at Zhao Gangzhu, "Why do you want to flatter others and destroy your brother's ambition? A good man does not mention his past achievements. How old is old Sun? If you give him face, he is the old captain. If you don't give him face, he is just an old man."

Zhao Gangzhu wanted to say something, but seeing that Zhao Tiezhu looked fierce and obviously unhappy, he swallowed his words and changed the subject, "Do you want to stop Lin Wanxia from selling the boat?"

"If not, do you want her to sell it and buy a new boat to fight me?" Zhao Tiezhu said with an expression of "What nonsense are you talking about?"

"But..." Zhao Gangzhu's face was wrinkled like a bitter gourd. Did his elder brother eat gunpowder today? Why did he get angry no matter what I said?

"But what?" Zhao Tiezhu asked impatiently. This younger brother is a useless person. He is timid but ambitious. He

is the most active when dividing money, but he is as timid as a mouse when doing things. He dares not do this or that.

"Lin Wanxia's man is back, and he brought a lot of people with him. If he does too much, will he..." He was beaten up.

In Zhao Tiezhu's disgusted eyes, Zhao Gangzhu couldn't say anything.

Zhao Tiezhu stood up from the recliner and poked Zhao Gangzhu's forehead with his index finger. "Are you stupid? Who knows that we were the ones who broke the hole in Lin Wanxia's boat except us? And even if we know how, her husband is a soldier. How dare he beat up ordinary people? If he dares to come to our house, we will go to his unit and make trouble!"
