Chapter 96 Picked up
Shi Xia was invited into the military camp office again.
Chief Wei, Political Commissar Li, Battalion Commander Cheng, and Shi Xia gathered together.
The three people stared at Shi Xia, who was drinking tea slowly.
"This tea is really delicious. Can you bring me some when I leave?"
"Okay, take whatever you want!"
"By the way, Shixia, the ship—"
"I picked it up."
Shi Xia blinked innocently and asked, "Can't we pick it up? There's no one on it, it's floating on the sea, it would be a waste if we don't pick it up."
"Yes! Of course!"
What Chief Wei wants to say is that it’s a good pick!
In fact, everyone in the room knew that this boat could not have been picked up, but it must have been picked up.
So the reason for asking further questions is to deal with the reporting process. You can't just not ask anything.
"What about gold?"
"I found this while searching for pearls in the sea."
Shi Xia took out a pearl and showed it to the three people, then put it in his pocket.
The three people were helpless: Can they still rob?
With a creaking sound, Shi Xia suddenly stood up, holding his head high and chest out.
"I knew full well that the country needed development, so after discovering the gold, I was not afraid of difficulties and dangers. I braved the enormous pressure under the sea and experienced several near-death struggles before finally salvaging the gold."
"As a patriotic fisherman who loves the Party, I am willing to contribute my humble efforts to the motherland!"
Shi Xia spoke passionately, and the three people looked at her with strange expressions.
On the one hand, they really admired Shi Xia. Being able to resist the temptation and hand over the gold was something that not everyone could do.
But on the other hand…hardships and obstacles? A near-death struggle?
How come they don’t believe it at all?
But the problem now is that they can't help but believe it.
Commander Wei led the applause, followed by Political Commissar Li and Battalion Commander Cheng.
"Comrade Shi Xia, I admire your patriotism. Don't worry, I will write down every word you say and report everything you do truthfully."
“I’m so sorry…”
"No! I insist."
"Well, I can't lose your face."
Shi Xia was "persuaded" to accept it.
There was harmony in the house.
The gold had to be handed over, but Xia had some ideas about the ship.
"Captain Wei, we are very poor in Haisan Island. I wonder if this ship can belong to us?"
"After all, I picked it up."
Chief Wei didn't think Shi Xia was being excessive; instead, he felt that this was what she deserved.
"You guys take the boat back and use it first. I'll report here first."
"Row!"
Shi Xia nodded with a smile.
"The R language on this boat is pretty annoying. Can I borrow some paint?"
"It's no big deal. Captain Cheng will take you there!"
Shi Xia left the barracks contentedly and followed Captain Cheng to get the paint.
"You—this!"
Battalion Commander Cheng gave Shi Xia a thumbs up.
"I know I have a noble character, you don't have to flatter me like that."
Captain Cheng's fingers fell stiffly and he chuckled.
"The people on the boat—"
"There's no one there. I picked up the boat, and there's no one there."
Shi Xia lied with his eyes open, and Captain Cheng nodded affirmatively, "Yes, no one."
"Shi Xia, from now on, when doing things at sea, you must carefully consider the surrounding environment."
Shi Xia understood what Captain Cheng meant: Don't let anyone catch you.
"I never do anything illegal."
You won’t know even if I do it.
"That's for sure."
The two of them tacitly went to the logistics department to get paint and walked towards the port.
The gold on board had been removed.
Shi Xia got on the boat and waved, Little Eagle landed on the bow, and the turtle Lao Liu followed under the sea. The two of them drove the big boat back to Haisan Island.
Battalion Commander Cheng watched.
Shi Xia's ability is too strong! Although they don't know how strong it is, a ship that big must have at least seven or eight people.
However, Captain Cheng knew that although Shi Xia was ruthless, she never took the initiative to provoke others.
"Who cares? It's just a boat for daily life, it deserves it!"
*
Shi Xia drove a large boat close to Haisan Island, and many islanders looked over.
"Where did the big ship come from?"
"The ferry isn't even on time yet!"
"Is there anyone who can read...I don't think so..."
“It’s a Chinese character from Country R!”
As soon as Zhang Jiangang, the educated youth who was learning to catch seafood, finished speaking, the villagers raised their seafood-catching tools.
Looks like he's ready to fight!
"No, look at that little eagle, isn't he from Shi Xia's family?"
"Yes, yes, yes! It's from the Shixia family."
The boat approached the temporary port of Haisan Island. Shi Xia poked his head out of the cabin and waved to the nearest villagers.
"Third Uncle—come and lend a hand!"
When Uncle San heard Shi Xia calling, he immediately dropped the work in his hands and rushed towards Shi Xia.
Several islanders followed behind.
Zhang Jian, an educated youth who was going to the beach, and two other girls, Guo Yunyun and Jia Yue, also came over to take a look out of curiosity.
The islanders got on the boat and helped Shi Xia drop the anchor, secure it, and tie the ropes.
"Shi Xia, this big ship?"
"I went out to sea looking for pearls. I didn't find any, but I came back with a big ship!"
Shi Xia excitedly talked about how she found the big ship, waited for a whole day but no one was around before she came back. She has already filed a record with the army, so we will use it first.
"Great!"
"This big boat can catch as much fish as it wants!"
"Shi Xia is still lucky!"
The boat was bustling with activity, but the three educated youth below seemed to be lost in thought.
It turns out that she is Shi Xia, the principal of the elementary school and a part-time teacher.
Several educated youth had the idea of becoming primary school teachers, but Village Chief Cao always said that they had to wait for Shi Xia to come back. She was the principal and had the final say.
It just so happened that Shi Xia went out to sea.
During the four days they spent on Haisan Island, they experienced the hardships of labor.
There isn't much land, but there's a lot of work to do at sea.
Take seafood hunting as an example. If you don’t go there, there really won’t be enough to eat.
But what they caught at the sea was not as much as a child's, and it couldn't even fill their teeth.
They looked at Shi Xia, their minds in turmoil.
Jia Yue was the first to look away, and continued to catch seafood with the bucket in hand. She only had a junior high school education, not as good as Cheng Qingmin and Li Yafang, so it would be better for her to learn how to catch seafood honestly.
Guo Yunyun lifted her hair, exuding seductive feminine charm, and thought regretfully: Why isn't Shi Xia a boy?
She just wanted to marry a man who could make money and was capable.
Guo Yunyun also withdrew her gaze and continued to work.
The only remaining male educated youth, Zhang Jian, scratched his head and left with a simple and honest look on his face.
Shi Xia finally got off the boat, and Uncle Cao also came, and she said it again.
Looking at the big ship in the bustling crowd at the village entrance, Uncle Cao suddenly felt that their temporary dock was not worthy of this big ship and should be repaired.
Shi Xia handed the paint to Cao Ping and let him use it freely. She went home first.
When Shi Xia returned home, he started shouting before he even entered the yard.
"Grandpa—Grandpa—I'm hungry!"
Grandpa Shi ran out after hearing the sound and jumped for joy when he saw Shi Xia.
"Grandpa, I'm hungry!
Shi Xia held her stomach, looking so pitiful.
Grandpa Shi understood what was going on and quickly turned back to the house. When he came out again, he was holding a cooked taro in his hand.
"Eat, and more!"
"Thank you grandpa!"
Grandpa Shi turned around and went to the kitchen to add more dishes. Shi Xia just washed himself and changed his clothes. The meal was ready.
"Grandpa, your skills are getting better and better."
Grandpa didn't hear it.
Shi Xia smiled helplessly.
I'm going to deliver Pearl tomorrow, and by the way, I'll ask if there is a good doctor.
