59 years after its opening, people are still in Nanluoguxiang.

Chapter 844 Just brag

"Not for sale!" Chen Feng stood on a reef nearly two meters high, one meter higher than the deck of the iron-hulled ship. However, the two navy men were very tall, and their upper bodies were just enough to see the harvest in the fish bucket in Chen Feng's hand.

Looking at the bucket full of fish, mackerel, etc., the colonel felt very uncomfortable.

He was clearly driving a boat in the sea a hundred meters away, where the environment was far better than this reef area.

How come he missed the shot?

"Comrade, don't worry. We don't buy fish for ourselves to eat, but to take them back and give them to the canteen. We buy them for everyone to eat." Xu Aijun held the oar against the reef to prevent the iron-hulled boat from being pushed onto the reef by the current.

This type of iron-hulled ship is a wooden boat covered with a layer of iron sheet and equipped with an engine. It is usually used as a target ship.

But even so, the young naval petty officer was unwilling to let it suffer additional losses other than work.

"Do not sell!"

Chen Feng couldn't help but look at the gasoline.

This boat is equipped with a gasoline engine...

I was really sharp-eyed. Xu Guohua came to his senses, but he was a little confused.

"Comrade, what do you want this gasoline for?"

Chen Feng smiled and replied: "I have a motorcycle at home and I'm short of gasoline. If you can give me a pot of gasoline, I will give you a bucket of fish without any problem."

Xu Guohua looked carefully at his clothes.

The upper body is made of some kind of animal leather, and judging by the patterns, it must have been hand-sewn. It is not a factory product, nor is it a military leather jacket.

He also has an exquisite Shanghai watch on his hand, which is equivalent to one month's salary of an ordinary worker.

The pants are made of cotton and are also new.

The leather shoes on his feet are brand new, obviously high-end goods costing more than seven dollars.

"You are a young master, and you drove your motorcycle to the Tianjin beach to fish. How could you be short of gasoline?"

The old army is different. Among the officers who survived the war, few are brave enough to fight every minute. Having sharp eyes and a quick gun are basic skills.

"I said the motorcycle belongs to my future wife and I drove it here secretly for fun. Do you believe me?"

The two people on the boat were still doubting whether Chen Feng had stolen the car, but when they heard this, they burst into laughter.

"Haha, I believe it!"

"Why?" Chen Feng became curious.

"Hehe, because this ship under our feet was also the one I stole my wife from." Xu Aijun said with a smile.

The three of them looked at each other, and immediately felt a sense of mutual understanding, and became closer to each other.

"Do you smoke?"

Considering their military ranks, Chen Feng took out his best cigarettes - Zhonghua.

This was given to him by Su Mei from Shichahai Sports School, which means the latter doesn't smoke. Otherwise, if it was Niu Gengshen from the steel rolling mill, or Ye Jin from the cannery, don't expect them to give it to you.

Ever since the cigarette coupons came out, these already scarce special supply cigarettes have become even less available. Even the large factories directly under the central government, the treasures of the leaders, have to simplify their products.

"Oh, sure!"

Xu Guohua caught two of them, then put one between his ears and held the other in his hand and lit it with a sunflower brand fuel lighter.

Sunflower brand fuel lighters are the most famous lighters of this era. They use kerosene as fuel, which is less volatile and lasts longer.

Most of the troops use this type of kerosene lighter as essential supplies for marching.

"Uh, uncle, you won't give it to your son?"

"Why would a child smoke? I smoked it for him!" Xu Guohua said happily.

The treatment of our navy was not as good as the standards of later generations. In fact, because there were no large warships, but mostly small warships and sailing wooden boats, life on the ships was very hard, almost like the bitter cold garrison on the northwestern frontier.

Necessities like cigarettes are more likely to be good.

They will consume as much as you are given.

The danger they are facing when sailing on the sea is no less than that faced by fishermen. Fishermen will not sail their fishing boats to the high seas where the wind and waves are strong.

"Forehead."

Chen Feng looked at the cigarette in his hand, and for the sake of the pot of gasoline, he threw it directly to Xu Aijun.

The latter immediately caught it and hid it in his pocket.

"Where are you from?"

With this pack of Zhonghua cigarettes, the relationship between the three people became closer again.

Because it's very simple. Anyone who can come up with this kind of cigarette either has a very famous family or has very strong connections and abilities. No matter which one it is, he can get Xu Guohua's approval.

"I'm from the old city. I have relatives here. Whenever I have time, I go fishing at the beach. I bring a hundred pounds of fish to sell to the factory, and also bring some meat for my family during the New Year."

Chen Feng smiled and pointed at the fish bucket and said, "At my peak, I caught several hundred kilograms of fish a day."

"You blow it!"

Xu Guohua took a puff and said, "Let me make it clear first. Even though you gave me a pack of cigarettes and a bucket of fish, it's still not worth the effort I put in to save up all the gasoline."

"Then what do you want?" Chen Feng agreed with this point. Zhonghua cigarettes plus a bucket of fish were indeed not as valuable as gasoline.

“Can you really catch a lot of fish?”

"Ok?"

"Then let's go fishing together. If you can fill this bag for me, I'll give you this pot of gasoline that I saved for half a year."

"make a deal!"

Chen Feng smiled and nodded.

Put the fish bucket aside and quietly put some minced wild boar meat into the sea water to attract nearby sea fish.

One was fishing on the rocks, and the other was fishing on a steel-hulled boat.

"Hey, there are really fish here!" Xu Guohua raised the rod in surprise.

Chen Feng laughed inwardly. He had been fishing here before and put down minced meat, which probably attracted all the fish nearby. It would be a miracle if Colonel Xu could catch any fish!

However, he did not expect that the latter, in order to get a piece of the pie (face), would take the initiative to approach him and strike up a deal with him, which was a pleasant surprise.

An hour later, the three of them parted ways with satisfaction.

Chen Feng got a pot of oil and a bucket full of fish, and the father and son got two sacks of "excellent results".

"Aijun, do you know what to say when you go back?" Xu Guohua blew out a smoke ring, facing the sea breeze, his eyes a little blurred and his eyes were full of tears.

Xu Aijun nodded vigorously.

"Dad, I understand!"

"Ah."

"Dad, I know you may never catch so many fish in your life, but you shouldn't cry, right?" Xu Aijun was very surprised.

His father was fighting pirates in Fujian. Only three of his comrades were left on the ship. He was heartbroken and had never shed so many tears.

Two bags of fish, is that a big deal?

"I'm not crying!" Xu Guohua wiped his eyes, "I'm not crying out of excitement!"

"This damn cold wind is blowing into my eyes!"

"The wind from the north is so cold!"

"Uh..." Xu Aijun was speechless. He was facing away from the wind, but his father was facing him.

"Look, I'm married now, and my child is two years old, can you give me half?"

"You wish, three at most!"
