After listening to this, Mr. Liu thought for a while and said, "You don't have to worry about this! I will talk to your father later and ask him to send someone to investigate. If it is suitable for survival and has abundant resources, there is a way to stay."

Liu Meilan smiled and said, "Grandpa, does this count as expanding territory?"

"Haha, I guess so!" Old Master Liu laughed, "Although we are very conservative now, we still have to think long-term about some things."

"That's the truth!" Liu Meilan replied with a smile.

Wang Miaoxiang came over with a thermos, and her eyes lit up when she saw Liu Meilan, "Meilan, your second brother called me, and I made something special for you."

Liu Meilan touched her stomach and said, "Sister Miaoxiang, I'm full! I'll eat in the evening, okay?"

Wang Miaoxiang has fair skin, delicate features, and a faint fragrance on her body. "Of course! Come, let me take your pulse!"

Old Master Liu and Fu Chen urged, "Yes, Miao Xiang is a very good doctor. Let Miao Xiang take your pulse! In bad weather, it is inevitable that your body will catch a cold. Girls cannot catch a cold the most!"

Liu Meilan stretched out her arms and sat down, "Thank you, Sister Miao Xiang!"

"You're welcome!" Wang Miaoxiang carefully felt Liu Meilan's pulse, with surprise in her eyes, "Meilan is in great health, the best I've seen among people of the same age!"

Mr. Liu thought for a moment and said, "That's true. I've never seen Meilan catch a cold before!"

Liu Meilan touched her chin. When she was in Sanlian Island, she caught a cold two or three times a year. Since she came to Sifang Island, she has never been sick. It seems that it must be a problem of supernatural powers. The Komei Pearl has changed her life and her body.

She received a gift from God, and Liu Meilan felt that she should be grateful and do more good deeds and accumulate virtue in the future.

Wang Miaoxiang praised: "But even if you are in good health, you still have to take care of yourself!"

Liu Meilan nodded. "I never put myself in a difficult position. If I feel hungry on the boat, I will immediately find something to eat. I will never leave myself hungry. This time when we encountered bad weather at sea and were looking for an escape cave, I remembered to bring a bag of ginger and brown sugar. After I settled down, I immediately made a fire to make brown sugar ginger tea. After drinking it hot, I sweated and my body was no longer cold."

Wang Miaoxiang nodded. "It's really great that you can take all these into consideration while ensuring safety! I'll prepare a first aid kit for you later. You can easily get it and carry it with you in case of emergency."

"Thank you Sister Miao Xiang!" Liu Meilan thanked.

After Wang Miaoxiang stayed for a while, she said goodbye and left. She was gentle, polite and considerate, and everyone in the Liu family liked her.

Mr. Liu was even more satisfied. "Meilan, this Children's Day, I want to arrange an engagement for your second brother and Miao Xiang. Is that okay?"

Liu Meilan nodded, "As long as Sister Miaoxiang and Second Brother are willing, I have no objection!"

Old Master Liu smiled and nodded, "Miao Xiang is a child I watched grow up, and your second brother is very stable now. He comes back often, and the two of them get along very well. Your second brother has experienced something before, and he doesn't dare to find a partner outside. Miao Xiang, we know each other well, and Doctor Wang is willing. Miao Xiang also has a good impression of your second brother, I think this marriage can be successful."

Liu Meilan smiled and said, "Of course I want to see my second brother have a happy marriage, and I also hope that Sister Miaoxiang can find a good home."

This is the Liu family's family affair. Fu Chen and Liu Meilan are now boyfriend and girlfriend, and they are not engaged yet. He is not yet an engaged son-in-law, so no one dares to interrupt.

"You may not be able to sleep well on the boat. You must be very sleepy now. Take a nap!" Fu Chen urged.

Liu Meilan shook her head and waved her hands. "No, my second brother's bed on the salvage ship is big and I slept well. Besides, if I sleep too much during the day, I won't be able to sleep well at night!"

As we were talking, Professor Xie and Liu Yibang came back.

"Meilan, come and look at me! Are you not hurt?" Professor Xie threw his luggage aside and quickly ran to his daughter, looking her up and down.

Liu Meilan was stunned. "Mom, didn't you say that Third Brother would not come back until the eighth day of the New Year?"

Professor Xie was relieved when he was sure that his daughter was fine. "I didn't receive your call during the Chinese New Year, and I was thinking about it. I called your father, and your father said you were fine. I called your grandfather and he also said you were fine. Your second brother also said you were fine, but I couldn't get through to you. It would be strange if you were still fine! I couldn't sit still over there, and your eldest sister-in-law and eldest brother also noticed it. In addition, Sister Yu took good care of your eldest sister-in-law over there, so your third brother and I bought plane tickets to come back. When I got here, your second brother told me the truth when he picked me up! I was very worried, and you didn't tell me such a thing."

Mr. Liu said awkwardly, "Didn't I hear that the weather is bad over there and it's hard to buy a plane ticket?"

"If I can't buy a plane ticket, I can take the train!" Professor Xie replied, "I haven't eaten or slept well these past few days. I've been thinking about this!"

Liu Meilan saw bubbles appearing at the corners of her mother's mouth and was a little worried. "Are you worried and having a sore throat? I have some herbal tea. I'll pour you some!"

Liu Yibang continued, "Meilan, pour me a cup too. My tongue is covered with blisters. I feel restless without you."

Liu Meilan hugged Professor Xie and said, "Mom, I'm sorry for making you worry!"

Professor Xie touched his daughter's face and said, "As long as you are well, that's better than anything else!"

Liu Zhengtao also came back in the evening, and the family gathered together and finally reunited safely.

The next day, Liu Meilan received a call from Tang Xiaoyu, saying that there was no point in keeping their fishing boat. It would take half a year just to repair it, and the cost was also quite high.

"Meilan, how about we buy two more second-hand fishing boats?" Tang Xiaoyu asked.

Liu Meilan thought for a moment and said, "Okay, let's go to the second-hand ship market! I'll go there after lunch!"

Fu Chen had nothing to do, so he followed Liu Meilan to the city. Several captains were there, as well as mechanics, and they picked out good second-hand fishing boats together. Some fishing in the ocean makes money, some doesn't, and some need to pay off debts, so they picked out a few good boats. However, they still need to be carefully inspected to prevent major defects.

Liu Meilan and Fu Chen arrived at the shipyard. Upon learning that Liu Meilan and Fu Chen came together, Hu Jian hurried out to greet them.

"Fu Chen, let's have a good drink tonight!" Hu Jian said with a smile, "I have to treat you, don't refuse!"

Fu Chen smiled and patted Hu Jian on the shoulder, thinking that this guy usually eats and drinks a lot. It has only been a short time since he left the army, but he has a beer belly. It seems that he rarely exercises and eats and drinks a lot.

"Okay! But we can talk about personal matters after we finish our official business! Let's talk about the fishing boat first!"

Liu Meilan asked: "Hu Jian, how long will it take for my fishing boat to be built?"
