1990, Reborn as a Beachcomber, From Rascal to Brilliant Guy

Around 6 p.m., Lin Shuisheng walked briskly out of the watch shop, carrying a burlap sack, a real estate transaction contract, and a set of house keys.

The sack contained a total of 85000 yuan.

The property transaction contract stated that he bought Building 168, Di'an Road from Lin Qiming for 65000 yuan, and that Lin Qiming would be responsible for the transfer procedures and fees. If the transfer could not be completed, the 65000 yuan purchase price would be refunded immediately.

These clauses were specifically requested by him to be added by Lin Qiming.

After all, business is business, and personal relationships are personal relationships. It's better to get things straight up beforehand.

He looked up at the sky and realized it was getting late. He hurriedly ran to the night market in the central area and asked the stall owner to help him choose two outfits for each of Ye Wanqing, Huang Suzhen, Chen Xiurong, Lin Shuixian, Lin Chunjiao, and Lin Mingtao, based on their sizes.

Due to time constraints, he couldn't care less about others this time, and he didn't even pick or buy anything for himself.

Finally, the stall owner bought four genuine cowhide belts with double buckles, which cost a total of 385 yuan, equivalent to two months' wages for an average worker.

After packing his clothes and belt into sacks, he hurriedly headed to the embankment dock.

Not long after, he returned to the front of Building 168, looked up at the 120-square-meter, ten-meter-high building, and his gaze was slightly dazed.

In his past life, he never managed to buy a house in the city until the day he died.

Unexpectedly, just a few days after his rebirth, he bought an entire building in the city.

Although this building is a bit old and somewhat dilapidated, it is still his house completely!

As it grew dark, he reached into his pocket, gently rubbed the set of house keys, and instead of opening the door and going inside, he turned and walked west.

After walking two or three hundred meters, he arrived at the north section of the embankment wharf.

From here, heading southeast along the coast, there is an 800-meter stretch of coastline that belongs to the breakwater pier mooring area.

He walked along, asking if there were any boats returning to Nan'ao. It wasn't until he was almost at the southernmost passenger terminal that he encountered an old-fashioned red-headed boat that had come from Houlan Town on Canglan Island to the city for business and was heading back.

After some haggling, I finally paid 3.5 yuan for the boat fare and successfully boarded a boat with the wind.

This price is more than 1 yuan more expensive than taking a regular passenger ship. The advantage is that you don't have to wait, but the disadvantage is that the price is higher and the journey takes longer, about half an hour to more than an hour longer than taking a passenger ship.

Lin Shuisheng sat on the deck at the bow of the boat, pressing the sack down with his buttocks, took out a pack of cigarettes from his pocket, flicked one out and put it in his mouth, and then took out a box of matches.

The next moment, there was a hissing sound. He took a deep breath and slowly exhaled, looking up at the vast expanse of remaining fiery clouds on the horizon. Suddenly, something occurred to him, and he hurriedly turned to look at the captain, who was helmsman in the cabin.

"Uncle, could you please tell me what day of June it is today?"

"Young man, today is the 24th!"

Call ~

Ok!

There should still be time.

Lin Shuisheng exhaled a puff of smoke, his expression relaxing slightly.

He remembered that in his previous life, not long after he finished making the three-day wine for his second son, he encountered a once-in-a-century torrential rain and typhoon.

Why do I say that?

This typhoon first formed in the sea east of Taiwan, then moved directly west, brushed past the northern part of Taiwan and entered the Taiwan Strait. Starting at around 1 a.m. on the 29th, it lingered in the sea northeast of Canglan Island, outside Qinglan Bay, for a total of 7 hours.

Even more strangely, after sweeping across Qinglan Bay and heading straight for Rao County, it was "pulled back" to circle around Canglan Island before finally turning west and landing in southern Fujian.

Therefore, it brought nearly two days of strong winds and heavy rain to Canglan Island, especially the Qinglan Bay area, destroying many houses, fishing sheds, fish rafts, fishing boats and fruit trees, causing significant losses to many people.

This included their family; not only were more than half of the tiles on their old house blown off, but their fishing shed built on the beach of Qinglan Bay was also destroyed.

In addition, the lychee, longan, wampee, tangerine peel, old pear, peach, jujube, banana, plum, apricot, and pomegranate trees planted in front of and behind the house, as well as on the hillside, have all been damaged.

In particular, the fruit that was in season, such as lychees, longans, and wampee, has almost all disappeared, directly causing the family to lose thousands of yuan in income.

There are still more than four days until the 29th. If we hurry up, we should still be able to make preparations.

I just don't know how to explain this to my family.

We can't trouble Mazu every time, can we?

My apologies, my apologies!

Before we knew it, it was past eight o'clock in the evening.

As darkness fell completely outside, and Lin Shuisheng still hadn't returned, Lin Yaoguang sat at the head of the dining table, his face as black as charcoal.

Everyone else was also looking at the main entrance, their expressions varied.

After a while, still seeing no one, Chen Xiurong turned to look at Lin Haisheng and Lin Chaosheng, frowning as she asked:

"Ah Hai, Ah Chao, do you really not know where Ah Shui went?"

"Hmm~"

Upon hearing this, Lin Chaosheng immediately shook his head repeatedly.

Lin Haisheng hesitated for a moment, then stammered as he answered:

"Um... I guess she might... she might have gone to the county seat?"

"What's Yihao Didi doing in the county?"

Chen Xiurong's eyes narrowed, and she looked at Lin Haisheng with some confusion.

Upon hearing this, the others turned to look at Lin Haisheng, their eyes filled with a hint of doubt.

Only Lin Chaosheng's expression changed, and he hurriedly kicked Lin Haisheng under the table.

Lin Haisheng glanced at Lin Chaosheng, then lowered his head and answered in a muffled voice:

"I don't know either, I'm just guessing."

"Bang!"

Seeing Lin Haisheng's somewhat guilty look, Lin Yaoguang slammed his hand on the table and stared at Lin Haisheng.

"Ah Hai, tell me the truth right now! What exactly did Ah Shui Yi go to the county town for?"

Lin Haisheng shrank back, then stole a glance at Lin Yaoguang, then at Lin Chaosheng, but ultimately couldn't withstand his father's intimidation and honestly confessed:

"Well, here's the thing. This afternoon, Ashuiyi told me and Achao that the weather is too hot and she wanted to spend money to buy a diesel generator. I guess she probably went to the county to ask about prices..."

"You bastard!"

Upon hearing this, Lin Yaoguang was immediately enraged.

"That spendthrift son of his really thinks he's all that now that he's made a little money."

A diesel generator costs at least 1,800 yuan. He hasn't even paid off his debts yet, and instead of working hard to earn money by fishing at sea, he just wants to complain about the world and act recklessly.

I think he's a leopard that can't change its spots.
