Fisherwoman: After my divorce, I became rich by fishing at sea

Chapter 221 Looking for Feng Ji

"Leader Zhao, it's almost time for lunch. Why don't you have a quick lunch with us?"

Village chief Fu was walking with a gust of wind. He saw Zhao Gang leaving without even having a cup of tea. How could this be possible?

Zhao Gang waved his hand. The torpedo was successfully salvaged today, and the experts from the Fisheries Administration also followed Sun Shaoping to the camp. He had completed the mission today.

"No, I still have things to do at the bureau. I have to rush back for a meeting."

He was about to leave after saying that, when Fu Wan happened to come out of the house quickly, holding in her hand the cloth bag containing the notebook that she had just taken out of the box.

"Leader Zhao, wait!"

Zhao Gang felt a little strange, especially when he saw the cloth bag in Fu Wan's hand.

They have rules and cannot take a single needle or thread from the masses!

"Leader Zhao, I found this when I was out at sea. I don't recognize the words on it. Could you please help me take a look?"

"Oh?"

Zhao Gang immediately became interested. Although he was a rough guy, he had taken literature classes when he was in the army.

When Fu Wan opened the layers of oil paper wrapping the notebook, revealing it, Zhao Gang confidently flipped through two pages and was immediately dumbfounded.

"This...how come these are just ghost paintings?"

He originally wanted to show off his talents, but he ended up suffering a complete setback.

He coughed awkwardly and said, "I'm sorry, Comrade Xiaofu, I don't recognize this character very well."

Village chief Fu, who was standing nearby, felt a little strange when he heard this and came forward to watch the fun.

What the hell is this talisman?

The next second, the cheerful smile on Village Chief Fu’s face disappeared.

"Awan, where did you get this from? This is Japanese characters!"

He had seen this before during the war. At that time, they laughed at the Japanese for not being able to write and just liking to scribble.

Fu Wan knew that this was an island language, but she didn't dare to show it easily.

Zhao Gang pondered for a moment and said, "Comrade Xiaofu, did you pick up this notebook at sea?"

Fu Wan nodded, and Zhao Gang wondered how this thing could appear on the sea, and whether it had anything to do with the islanders who had appeared frequently recently.

Thinking of this, Zhao Gang took the notebook from Village Chief Fu.

"Comrade Xiaofu, I'll take your notebook back first. I know a few people who can speak Japanese characters. I'll ask them to translate it for you and then call you."

This was exactly the result Fu Wan wanted. "Then I'll trouble you, Leader Zhao."

Seeing that there was nothing else to do, Zhao Gang drove Li Jun to the Fisheries Administration. In the car, he stroked the notebook in his hand.

Most of the old comrades in the bureau don’t know much about foreign languages, and even if they do, they only speak English and Russian. However, he has a candidate who can speak the island language.

The person who was far away and yet right in front of him was Bai Qianzhou, who had studied abroad.

Bai Qianzhou is not only interested in medicine, but in order to understand it thoroughly, he also learns various languages so that he can understand medical literature from various countries.

This is also the reason why Bai Qianzhou would come out with the camp leaders when there was an incident involving enemy spies. He could not only serve as a doctor, but also as a translator.

Bai Qianzhou could translate the words on the torpedo after just a few glances.

But he remembered that Bai Qianzhou and Fu Wan's family were very close, and he didn't know why Fu Wan didn't ask Bai Qianzhou to translate this.

If Fu Wan knew the doubts in Zhao Gang's heart, she would definitely cry out in injustice. She didn't know that Bai Qianzhou had so many skills!

The torpedo incident was resolved, and Fu Qiang was taken away by the military comrades who rushed over to the camp. The villagers of Fujia Village did not know what had happened and just thought that Fu Qiang had caused trouble again.

Instead, Wang Zhaodi sat at the door and howled a few times, saying that it was Boss Fu's family that caused her son to be arrested, and Boss Fu was too lazy to pay attention to her.

Village chief Fu ran to warn Fu Laoer, and Wang Zhaodi was scolded back by Fu Laoer who was lying in the house, and she didn't dare to come out and do anything wrong.

"Dad, I want to go to the county town this afternoon."

After lunch, Fu Wan sat in the yard, while Fu Ling and Qin Mingzhu took a wooden stick and learned to write on the ground.

When Boss Fu heard her say this, he knew that she wanted to go to the county to ask about ambergris.

"Go ahead and ask your brother to go with you."

Although the situation at that time was not as chaotic as in previous years, a girl was still afraid of encountering bad people when going out.

Fu Wan nodded in agreement, saying that having someone with her could help her carry things.

Fu Ling became excited when she heard that they were going to the county town. She ran to Fu Wan and looked at her with anticipation.

The only thing missing is to write "take me there" on my forehead.

Fu Wan couldn't help but touch her head and asked, "Do you want to go?"

Fu Ling nodded desperately, and Qin Mingzhu next to her glanced at them calmly and continued to write and draw on the ground.

"I wouldn't even take you with me!"

When Fu Ling heard this, her mouth pursed and she was about to burst into tears. Fu Wan quickly coaxed her, "I'll go to the county town to buy you some paper and pens. If you write well, I'll send you to school next month."

The Mid-Autumn Festival is approaching, and Fu Honghong next door has been sent to the first grade. Fu Ling was reluctant to go to school at first, but after listening to Fu Honghong talk about interesting things at school every day after school, he now also wants to go to school.

When Fu Ling heard that she would buy them paper and pen, she stopped making a fuss and went to happily tell Qin Mingzhu the good news.

Boss Fu went outside to call Fu Ming back, while Fu Wan took a cloth bag and put a small piece of ambergris that was placed in the backyard for ventilation.

This trip to the county town was just to inquire about prices, so a small piece was enough for her.

Going to the county town is farther than going to the town. The brother and sister thought it was tiring to ride a bicycle, so they simply paid for the village tractor to go there.

The village tractors can pick up passengers when the farming season is not busy. It costs one dollar to take two people to the county town, a one-hour journey.

It wasn't cheap, but it wasn't expensive either. Fu Wan simply took two yuan and asked Uncle Niu, who was driving the tractor, to wait at the door of the county supply and marketing cooperative.

After getting off the car, Fu Wan took Fu Ming and turned into Feng Ji's shop as if they were familiar with the place. Feng Ji was not sleeping this time. He was wearing reading glasses and repairing an old-fashioned clock with one black hand.

"Uncle Feng, long time no see!"

Feng Ji heard the noise and was wondering who it was. When he looked up, he saw it was Fu Wan and her brother.

"Oh my, what a rare visitor! I thought you had forgotten about me, an old man!"

Fu Wan smiled and said, "How could that be? I'm usually busy making a living, and now I'm unsure about something. I thought Uncle Feng is knowledgeable, so I came here to let you take a look."

Feng Ji snorted coldly, but he was very pleased with her flattery, "Give it to me!"

Fu Ming was stunned for a moment, then quickly handed over the thing in his hand.

These are the black tiger shrimps that Fu Wan packed in a small bucket. Many of them are still alive. She specially took two kilograms for Feng Ji to try.

Feng Ji looked at the palm-sized shrimps in the bucket, and his expression was indescribable. "You came to my pawnshop to sell shrimps?"

Fu Wan was helpless, "How can I, uncle? This shrimp is a gift from me. The thing I want you to help me look at is right here!"
