Beautiful mayor's wife

The old man raised his eyebrows: "You are not talking about the plane accident more than half a month ago, are you?" The old man is quite well informed, he actually knew that there was an airplane accident more than half a month ago.

"Yes, it was the accident." Ma Xiaoyao nodded.

The old man's face twitched a few times: "So, your friend has been missing for more than half a month?"

"Yes." Ma Xiaoyao replied.

"My friend, I didn't pour cold water on you. You can't survive a person floating in the sea for more than half a month... You better not waste your time..." The old man persuaded him kindly.

Ma Xiaoyao shook his head: "I want to see people in life, and I want to see corpses in death. All in all, I won't give up. Old man, please rent me a yacht. The rent is whatever you want."

"You are really stubborn." The old man wrinkled his mouth.

"Bad old man, you can rent him a yacht, there are very few people who are kind and righteous like him now." The white-faced man said.

The old man pondered for a moment: "Okay, I'll rent you a yacht. As for the rent... how long do you want to rent it for?"

"I can't say... I guess the time may not be too short..." Ma Xiaoyao said.

"That's it..." The old man thought for a while, "I think you're a good guy, so I'll give you a discount. I'll charge you a rent of 1000 yuan a day. In addition, I'll equip you with a driver. What do you think?"

"Okay, no problem, just follow what the old man said." Ma Xiaoyao had no objection.

"Young man, you must pay a deposit to rent a yacht..." the old man said.

"How much is the deposit?" Ma Xiaoyao asked.

"Usually it's the price of a yacht. I bought my yacht for 38 yuan, so just give me 30 yuan." The old man calculated.

Ma Xiaoyao was immediately stunned: "Three...30? I...I don't have that much money...Old man, I only have 5 yuan here..." Ma Xiaoyao didn't expect that it would cost so much money to rent a yacht. I was really taken aback.

"Fifty thousand is not enough, it's too little." The old man shook his head.

"Old man, you can rest assured that I will definitely return the yacht to you in its entirety... How about this, I will give you my work permit, and if I don't return your yacht at that time, you can directly Find me with your work card!" As he spoke, Ma Xiaoyao took out a work card from his coat pocket and handed it to the old man.

The old man took it over and took a look: "Huh? Are you the party secretary of a township?"

"Yes, I am the secretary of the party committee of Gaohe Township, old man, you can rest assured that I am definitely not a liar..." Ma Xiaoyao said hastily.

The old man returned the work card to Ma Xiaoyao: "I'm sorry, I can't break the rules. If you want to rent a yacht, you must give me a deposit of 30 yuan." The first time we met, the two parties were not familiar at all, and of course the old man was not willing to rent the yacht to Ma Xiaoyao easily.

"Old man, please believe me, I will definitely send you the yacht back." Ma Xiaoyao promised.

The old man waved his hand: "It's not that I don't believe you, but...you should also know that going out to sea is a very dangerous thing. When you get to the sea, anything can happen, just in case...I mean just in case, just in case When you encounter huge waves or other dangerous situations at sea, and the yacht sinks, who will compensate me for the loss at that time? Do you understand me when I say this?"

After listening to the old man's words, Ma Xiaoyao frowned tightly. In fact, what the old man said is also reasonable. The risk factor at sea is very high. Maybe the yacht will be damaged or destroyed. The old man wants a deposit of 30 yuan just in case. one.

The white-faced man wanted to intercede for Ma Xiaoyao, but as soon as he opened his mouth, the old man stared back.

"Little boy, you are also in this line of work. You should know the rules of this line of work very well. I hope you don't make it difficult for me." The old man snorted.

The white-faced man closed his mouth sullenly.

Ma Xiaoyao was silent for a moment, and said: "Mr., please wait a moment." After speaking, Ma Xiaoyao took out his mobile phone and dialed a series of numbers.

The phone rang for a long time before it was connected.

"Sister Wang, I am in urgent need of money, can you lend me some money?" From Ma Xiaoyao's address, he should be calling Wang Aiqin.

"What urgent matter are you in? Can I help you?" Wang Aiqin asked with concern.

"I'm in the city now, and I can't explain a sentence or two clearly. I'll explain it to you when I get back to the county. Can you lend me some money now?" Ma Xiaoyao said in an anxious tone.

"How much do you need?" Wang Aiqin asked.

"25." Ma Xiaoyao already has 5 in his hand, so with another 25, he can make up 30.

"Okay, tell me the card number, and I'll send you the money right away." Wang Aiqin readily agreed.

"The card number is..." Ma Xiaoyao explained his bank card number carefully.

"Okay, wait for me for a while, and I'll ask the accountant to transfer the money to you right away." After a while, Wang Aiqin said, "Okay, I'll ask the accountant to transfer the money to your card, and I'll send you a total of 50."

Ma Xiaoyao was taken aback: "Why is it 50?"

"I'm worried that you don't have enough money." Wang Aiqin smiled.

A touch of emotion flashed in Ma Xiaoyao's heart: "Sister Wang, thank you, I will return the money to you as soon as possible." It is a blessing to meet a friend like Wang Aiqin in life.

"Don't worry, you can pay it back anytime, it's okay if you don't pay it back." Wang Aiqin said: "If you don't have enough money, just tell me again, don't be embarrassed."

"Well, I know, Sister Wang, let's stop here first, I'm going to the bank to withdraw money." After finishing speaking, Ma Xiaoyao hung up the phone, and then said to the old man: "Old man, I have already borrowed money." Now, go to the bank to get it now, can you wait a moment?"

The old man nodded: "No problem."

After saying hello to the old man, Ma Xiaoyao turned and left.

The old man and the white-faced man stood in place and waited.

More than 20 minutes later, Ma Xiaoyao ran back panting, and handed a bulging paper bag to the old man: "You count, 30, not a penny."

The old man took a look at the paper bag and nodded, "It's exactly 30 yuan. Let's go, I'll take you to see the yacht." After speaking, the old man led Ma Xiaoyao and the white-faced man to the east, and turned a few turns After that, more than a dozen white yachts appeared in front of them, all relatively new, neither big nor small.

There was a trace of admiration on the face of the white-faced man: "Old man, I haven't seen you for a few months, and you have a few more yachts. You are making more and more money."

"It's okay." The old man turned his head to look at Ma Xiaoyao: "These dozen or so yachts are all mine, you can pick any one."

Ma Xiaoyao pointed to the yacht in the middle: "That's it."

The old man nodded, took out his mobile phone and dialed a series of numbers: "Hey, Jin Ming, come out for a while, you're here for business." Just as the old man put down his mobile phone, a thick-headed, thick-skinned man walked away from the yacht that Ma Xiaoyao just pointed out come out.

"Boss." The thick-headed man greeted the old man respectfully.

The old man said to Ma Xiaoyao: "His name is Jin Ming, and he is my subordinate. He has been driving yachts for many years, and his driving skills are very good. This time, let him take you out to sea. Do you have any objections?"

"No problem." Ma Xiaoyao said hastily.

"Well, you can go to sea now, Jin Ming, take good care of this guest, and bring him back safely." The old man said to Jin Ming in the second half of his sentence.

Jin Ming nodded: "Boss, don't worry, I will definitely bring the guest back safely."

In this way, Ma Xiaoyao followed Jin Ming and left on a yacht.

……

"Brother, where are we going?" Jin Ming asked Ma Xiaoyao while driving the yacht.

Ma Xiaoyao took out a map from his pocket and handed it to Jin Ming: "Go to the sea area I marked."

Jin Ming opened the map, glanced at it, and nodded: "Brother, sit down, I'm going to speed up now." After speaking, Jin Ming began to speed up slowly, and within a short while, the speed of the yacht doubled.

After driving for two full days and one night, the yacht arrived at the sea area where Guli's accident occurred.

"Brother, we're here." Jin Ming controlled the yacht and slowed down slowly.

"Drive slowly around this sea area." After Ma Xiaoyao ordered, he quickly ran to the deck and began to search for Gu Li's whereabouts.

According to Ma Xiaoyao's instructions, Jin Mingba drove the yacht slowly on the sea area where Guli's accident happened.

It was getting dark quickly, and Ma Xiaoyao still couldn't find Guli. As soon as it got dark, the sea became pitch black, almost invisible. Even if Ma Xiaoyao wanted to continue looking for Guli, it was impossible for Ma Xiaoyao. Sighing, he returned to the cabin from the deck, and said to Jin Ming: "Shut down the yacht, we will spend the night here tonight."

Jin Ming nodded: "OK."

Ma Xiaoyao sat in the cabin, staring at the dark sea outside through the cabin window in a daze.

"Brother, let's eat something." Jin Ming put two bottles of canned food and a ham sausage beside Ma Xiaoyao.

Ma Xiaoyao shook his head: "I'm not hungry, you can eat by yourself." Now that Gu Li's life and death are unknown, Ma Xiaoyao will not be in the mood to eat.

"Brother, you haven't eaten much in the past few days when you go to sea. If you continue like this, your body will collapse." Jin Ming kindly persuaded: "As the saying goes, people are iron, rice is steel, and you don't eat a meal. If you are hungry, you will have strength only when you are full."

"I'm really not hungry." Ma Xiaoyao reached out and took out a pack of cigarettes from his pocket. Looking down, he found that the pack was empty. Ma Xiaoyao then threw the pack into the trash can next to him, and said to Jin Ming: "Do you have any cigarettes on you?" Jin Ming is very honest and simple, and Ma Xiaoyao has a good impression of him.

"Yes." Jin Ming hurriedly took out a pack of cigarettes from his body and handed it to Ma Xiaoyao.

Ma Xiaoyao took the cigarette case, took out a cigarette, lit it, put it in his mouth, and returned the case to Jin Ming.

"Brother, why are you going to sea...?" Jin Ming hesitated for a moment and asked.

Gently exhaling a puff of smoke, Ma Xiaoyao said, "Look for someone."

Jin Ming was stunned for a moment: "Looking for someone? Who are you looking for?"
