"Who are you?" Jie Hui did not know the person.
"I'm a fisherman from nearby. We have a boat. If you want to fish him out, we can help. You can call me Daguang, "said the short man.
"Help? For free? "Jie Hui's younger brother, Jie Yu, asked.
Daguang put on a fake smile when he heard that. "Brother, are you kidding me? We are fishermen. We don't even fish to help you fish people out. You want us to do it for free? We are also poor people who rely on fishing to make a living. Every day of delay is money. "
"Give us money! We will give you money! How much do you want? "Jie Hui's mind was on Lin Zhixian as she immediately asked.
"Not much. Ten thousand!" Daguang said directly.
"What!?" Jie Hui and Jie Yu exclaimed in unison!
The people around them jumped in fright. One of them could not help but exclaim, "Wasn't it eight thousand in the past? Why did it suddenly rise to ten thousand? "
"Pork was worth a few yuan in the past. Now that prices have risen, we will naturally follow suit! Ma 'am, don't blame me for not warning you. The earlier you fish, the earlier you fish. The later you fish, the harder it will be to fish. If they are washed away by the water and can't be fished out, it will be terrible even if they die in the water. If they are eaten by the fish, sigh … How tragic. "Daguang wore a look of pity. His words chilled one's heart.
Jie Hui's expression turned uglier as she said, "Can you make it cheaper? I don't have that much money. "
"There's nothing I can do about that. Look over there. There are four people on our boat. Together with our helpers on the shore, there are a total of eight people. With eight people helping you fish someone out, who knows how long it will take to fish him out. After taking your money, if we can't fish him in one day, we'll fish for two days. If we can't fish him in two days, we'll fish for three days … You might think we're taking a lot, but the risks here are all borne by us. Furthermore, on average, each person earns about a thousand yuan. If we don't fish him out, we can earn this much in two to three days, "said Daguang.
Jie Hui and Jie Yu were from the vicinity. Although they said they did not know, how could they not know? They naturally knew what Daguang and Bai Wenshui in the water were like. In the past, when they saw other people's problems, they felt that those who were cheated were stupid. Today, when this happened to them, they finally understood the pain. What else could they do when they had no other choice?
"You two, hurry up and give us a result. If you want to fish, hurry up and pay up. We'll start immediately. If not, we'll be leaving, "said Daguang.
"Fish!" Seeing that Daguang was really about to leave, Jie Hui panicked and hurriedly shouted.
"That's what you said. Then we can begin fishing him out," said Daguang.
"Sis, it's so expensive. If you give it to them, how are you going to live?" Jie Yu whispered.
"People are alive. There's always a way to get over it. I can't let Zhixian sink to the bottom and not come up. "Jie Hui cried.
Jie Yu sighed. What else could he say now that it had come to this.
After Daguang confirmed that they were about to fish him out, he waved his hand at Bai Wenshui. Bai Wenshui nodded as the boat docked.
Daguang said, "My luck isn't bad. I happened to catch someone with that net. Let's go and see if it's someone from your family."
"What? You caught him?" Jie Yu immediately turned anxious when he heard that. At the same time, he said angrily, "If you caught him, why didn't you send him to the shore for emergency treatment!? Who knows, he might have been saved! "
"What's with the ruckus? He's already dead. What's the point of not going ashore? "Daguang shouted unhappily.
"But, if you …" Jie Yu was just about to argue.
Daguang waved his hand and said, "I'll ask you one last time. Do you want the corpse? If you don't, I'll throw it into the river. You can fish it out yourself! If you want it, pay up! What's the point of saying all that? He fell into the river himself. We helped you fish him out. That's a good deed. But when it comes to you, it's considered murder. Pui! I'm telling you, if you have evidence, use it. If you don't, don't spout nonsense! "
Jie Yu was infuriated when he heard that, but just as Daguang said, it was useless no matter how he thought about it. Everything needed evidence! Besides, it was only a guess. He did not know if it was as he guessed.
"I'll go take a look." Jie Hui was already mentally and physically exhausted. Her husband had drowned, and she looked like she had lost her soul. Her face was pale as she walked weakly. Everyone shook their heads and felt their hearts ache for her.
"F * * k, a bunch of vampires!" At that moment, a square-faced man beside Fangzheng cursed softly. He was the kind-hearted person who had entered the water to save Fangzheng. He had lasted until the very end and had no choice but to retreat.
Fangzheng went forward and said, "Amitabha. Patron, what do you mean?"
"What do I mean? Is there a need to explain? These bastards rely on the fact that they have boats. They don't fish every day and just swim on the river. Once someone falls into the water, it's fine if they don't save him, but they even stop others from rescuing him. Not long ago, there was a person who was stopped by them. He tried several times, but he eventually lost all his strength and drowned. Even when that brother's family came, they still sold his corpse! Such people, pui! They're practically cancer! "the square-faced man cursed.
Fangzheng's heart palpitated when he heard that. Even his hands trembled. He originally believed that these people were despicable enough, but he never expected them to be more despicable than he imagined!
After the square-faced man said that, he looked at Jie Hui and shook his head. "I tried my best … Sigh …"
Fangzheng said, "Since there are precedents, why did you still enter the water?"
The square-faced man looked up and said, "I'm from China's Twin Rivers!"
With that said, the square-faced man turned and left.
It was a very simple sentence, but the shock in it made all of Fangzheng's blood race! Despite knowing the danger, he still took the risk to enter the water. It was not for money or fame, but because he was a local! As a local, he had to promote righteousness! That was all! This was the pride of the people and the pride of the region supporting him! Without any hesitation, he risked his life! For such a person, Fangzheng could only think of one word to describe him — hero!
Fangzheng pressed his palms together and bowed slightly at the square-faced man's back. He said, "Amitabha!" At the same time, he activated his Wisdom Eye!
The next moment, Fangzheng jumped in fright. It was not because the square-faced man had too much merit, but because Fangzheng was surprised to discover that many people present had quite a bit of merit! Although it had not reached the level of condensing a lotus flower, the merit these people had was clearly greater than their negative karma. The average was shockingly high! Fangzheng swept his gaze over and saw a sea of gold!
However, Fangzheng's gaze eventually landed on the square-faced man. There was an arrow above his head that pointed north.
Fangzheng thought for a moment and took out a pen and paper from the bag on his back. He quickly wrote a few words and handed it to Squirrel.
Squirrel expressed his understanding and rushed out to chase after the square-faced man.
