Follow the army to the island, the rebellious male protagonist was led by me to counterattack

Chapter 23 Preparing to go to sea
In the drying yard, Shi Xia stood on the platform without giving a long speech.

It's weird, no one wants to listen.

She praised Uncle Cao concisely and directly, and then mentioned the fishing team that went out to sea yesterday.

"Captain Cao Ping of the fishing team remained calm and composed in the face of adversity... Li Daniu, Zhang Sanyuan, and Mu Gensheng... all gave their all and actively cooperated."

"The wooden boat captains who participated in the rescue, drawing on their years of experience... Li Erniu, Chen San... and Wen Cheng'an, disregarded their own safety and bravely participated in the rescue... This spirit deserves praise and should be spread."

Everyone whose name was called stood up straight subconsciously.

"Later, I will post your names on our village's honor wall, so that your good character can inspire the entire village to make progress."

"thank you all."

Shi Xia finished speaking.

Thunderous applause broke out instantly. Their names were about to be put on the wall of honor, so who could not applaud?

The village chief, Uncle Cao, leaned back slightly and asked the accountant next to him in a low voice.

"Accountant Xu, does our island have an honor display wall?"

Accountant Xu shook his head and said, "There's no Wall of Honor, but we do have a wall."

Uncle Cao understood immediately.

Yes, this thing is what they say it is.

The two old foxes looked at each other and had no objection to Shi Xia's behavior.

I even thought it was a good idea.

After saying this, Shi Xia took a few steps back and gave the dominant position to Uncle Cao.

Uncle Cao stepped forward again and talked about the second thing.

"The second thing is... Shi Xia is joining the fishing team. Captain Cao Ping has no objection, but the fishing team belongs to our village, so we still need everyone to vote."

"If more than half of the votes are cast, it will be considered as approval."

Uncle Cao was just about to initiate a show of hands to vote when Shi Xia came over with a smile.

"Uncle Cao, can I recommend myself?"

"Row."

Shi Xia thanked him with a smile. Uncle Cao took a step to the left and thought: What a polite child.

The next second, the polite Shi Xia took a big step forward, his voice loud and clear, full of bandit spirit.

"Let's not talk about those useless emotions. I speak with my strength."

"I can hold my breath for 15 minutes, I can tell the direction in the sea without a compass, I have a keen sense of fish and weather, and I'm very strong. Yesterday I went into the sea and brought back 400 to 500 kilograms of sea cucumbers."

"I can bring you wealth and a good life, let you eat meat to your heart's content, and bring your men and sons back safely, so...vote for me, you won't lose out!"

After Shi Xia finished speaking, he took a step back domineeringly.

Several people on the stage were stunned.

If they were not familiar with the surrounding environment, they would even have the illusion that they had gone to Liangshan.

And at this moment, they are swearing an oath of blood alliance.

Uncle Cao came back to his senses and stood in front again and said, "Raise your hands if you agree that Shi Xia will join the fishing team."

"I agree!"

Aunt Zhang was the first to raise her hand.

Before she finished speaking, Wen Laoshi also raised his hand and kicked Wen Chengan who was a second slower.

Wen Chengan rolled his eyes and said, "I'm not erectile now!"

Wen Laoshi said dissatisfiedly, "Too slow! Shi Xia is your girlfriend, and you didn't even get the first one."

Wen Chengan hesitated for a long time and finally chose to remain silent.

After the three members of the Wen family raised their hands, the seven brothers of the Chen family also raised their hands.

Afraid of falling behind by a second.

Next, more and more people raised their hands, and more than 80% of people raised their hands.

The remaining 20% ​​had doubts about Shi Xia's abilities and hesitated for a moment.

Uncle Cao on the stage saw that half the number of people had come in the blink of an eye, and he announced the result directly.

"No need to mention it, Shi Xia has joined the fishing team."

The drying field meeting ended here.

The islanders dispersed in groups of three or five and went to work.

Shi Xia called out to Aunt Zhang, who quickly came over and asked, "What's wrong?" "Aunt, after I joined the fishing team, you can do the job of distributing tools."

When Aunt Zhang heard this, she waved her hands in fear.

"No, I never went to school."

"It's easy without going to school."

“Aunt…”

Shi Xia pulled Aunt Zhang's arm and whispered, "If you don't let me watch over them, and the fishing team doesn't take me seriously, I might have to come back."

Aunt Zhang suddenly understood.

"Yes, I'll watch over this job for you. You can continue working on it when you come back."

Aunt Zhang instantly felt that she had a heavy responsibility on her shoulders, and said seriously, "Don't worry, I will definitely watch you thoroughly!"

"I know my aunt is the best to me."

After Shi Xia and Aunt Zhang agreed, they went to find Uncle Cao.

Uncle Cao didn't care much about this matter and agreed directly.

What he wanted to see most was Shi Xia's ability, whether it was really as she said.

If that were true, their lives on Haisan Island would be much better.

"Thank you, Uncle Cao."

After thanking him, Shi Xia said, "Uncle Cao, I think the weather is good. If our fishing boat can be used, we can go fishing today."

Since everyone is waiting to see her abilities, Shi Xia must create some opportunities.

If she wants to have a say on the island, she should show corresponding strength and trade fairly.

As for being used by others?

She is strong and not afraid.

"Okay! Let's go today."

Uncle Cao agreed immediately, and Shi Xia smiled and said, "I'll go back and clean it up."

"Okay, no rush!"

After Uncle Cao finished speaking, he turned around and called Cao Ping to prepare.

"Cao Ping, please pay attention to Shi Xia."

Cao Ping understood what Uncle Cao meant. He nodded and said, "Okay, I think what Shi Xia said is true. She dived for more than ten minutes last night."

Uncle Cao nodded.

"It's true that you can hold your breath while diving, but what about the rest? Luck and the catch all depend on it."

Cao Ping understands that luck is very important for fishermen.

Shi Xia went back with Aunt Zhang, while Wen Cheng'an was taken away by Wen Laoshi, and the father and son went to work together.

After arriving home, Shi Xia changed into clothes that would not get wet even if they were soaked, and pulled Aunt Zhang aside to tell her how to distribute the tools.

"Aunt, you don't need to write, you can draw."

"This is a rake, and this is a hoe. Just look at the pictures."

"As long as the tools aren't lost, it's fine. Don't you know what tools we have on our island?"

Aunt Zhang thought for a moment, then nodded and said, "I understand now. We don't have many tools."

"Yes, that's the reason, so don't be afraid. This job pays six centimeters a day, so it's not tiring."

"After you hand out the tools, don't go help others with their work. Just quietly find a place to sit down. If someone asks you, just say you're checking the tools."

Aunt Zhang nodded repeatedly, trying hard to remember what Shi Xia said.

"Okay, I've got it all in mind. Go early and come back early, but don't come back in the dark. It's too dangerous."

"And I'll dry the sea cucumbers for you, and feed the chickens, ducks, and geese for you, so don't worry about it."

Aunt Zhang had taken care of all of Shi Xia's worries, and Shi Xia nodded with a smile.

"Thank you, Auntie."

"What are we to thank you for? Let's go!"

Shi Xia was kicked out.

She walked towards the fishing boat with a relaxed pace.

Today, let me give you a little shock!
