But Xu Baoguo acted as if he didn't see it, and even started complaining about Feng Ji.

"Old Feng, what's wrong with you? I've met Comrade Fu before, why won't you let me say hello to her?"

"If she knew I was coming, she would definitely prepare some good seafood to treat us!"

Feng Ji rolled his eyes again. "Xu Baoguo, you really are almost sixty years old, your skin is thicker than an old tree trunk."

He's had his eyes opened these past few days. He used to only know that Xu Baoguo wasn't very bright, and he would occasionally tolerate it out of consideration for his colleagues. But ever since he accepted the package sent by Fu Wan in front of Xu Baoguo, he realized that Xu Baoguo's skin was thicker than a city wall!

Not only did he fight over the seafood that Fu Wan sent him, but he also secretly saw the letter Fu Wan wrote to him. When he saw the photo of the ebony wood tucked inside the letter, he swarmed around himself like a toad.

If it weren't for the fact that this guy knew a bit about ebony and other such things, he wouldn't have wanted to bring this person out to embarrass himself!

He'd even treat him to seafood? He hadn't thought of that. No way! When he saw Fu Wan, he'd strongly suggest she arrange some rotten fish and shrimp for this guy!

Qin Fu watched the spectacle with great interest, thinking to himself that the journey from the capital to Longhai City would be incredibly boring.

Unexpectedly, the two of them started their own little duo performance as soon as they got in the car. Their banter was even more entertaining than a traditional opera performance!

Fu Wan had no idea that they had brought Xu Baoguo with them. At the moment, she didn't have time to think about Feng Ji and the others coming, because she and Fu Ming had only been at the dock for a short time when they saw a huge cargo ship on the sea in the distance!

Judging by its size, it's even a whole size bigger than the "Riding the Waves"!

"Holy crap, where did such a huge ship come from!"

Fu Shi, who was collecting fish at the dock, was the first to notice the cargo ship. He was so shocked that he almost fell off his tricycle. Upon hearing this, the villagers on the dock also looked towards the sea.

This sight caused an uproar at the dock.

"Oh my goodness, am I seeing things? This ship is huge!"

"Heavens! Such a big ship, if it goes out to sea for trawling, it could carry thousands of tons of seafood!"

"Several thousand tons of seafood? Ha, what's wrong with your eyes? Don't even mention several thousand tons, it could be tens of thousands of tons!"

"Hey, where did such a big ship come from? Judging from its course, it looks like it's heading towards our dock."

"Holy crap, really! Goddess Mazu, our village's dock has become this amazing? Even ships this big have to dock here? Wow, I can brag about this for a year!"

The murmurs on the dock were constant, and Fu Ming heard them as soon as he arrived. His lips immediately curled into a wide smile.

"Ahem, let me tell you, that boat came to our village, hehe, it's here to deliver things to our family!"

"Who is it, bragging again!"

"Such a big ship, it can't be here to deliver goods, can it?"

Several villagers fishing at the dock heard this and were about to make a sarcastic remark when they turned around and found that it was Fu Ming who had spoken.

The group looked at each other, and immediately began to mutter to themselves.

Fu Ming and Fu Wan have been very busy in the village these past two years. They are usually either at sea or working in factories and aquaculture areas, so they are rarely seen.

Fu Ming loves fishing and can be seen occasionally. As for Fu Wan, she's nowhere to be seen; she just returned from Hong Kong a while ago!

It's broad daylight now, and it's not the time to buy fish in the morning. The fact that these two siblings are both at the dock might actually be related to that big ship!

"Hey, Wan, your brother wasn't bragging? That ship really came to deliver things to you?"

Fu Tiejun, who was the same age as Fu Laoda, looked at Fu Wan and asked, "Fu Ming is a rascal, and he's not without his boasts. Compared to him, we'd rather listen to Fu Wan."

Fu Wan smiled and boldly admitted, "Uncle, it's true. A while ago I went out and got a speedboat. That big ship must have been there to deliver the speedboat to me."

"Speedboat? What kind of boat is a speedboat?"

Fu Tiejun was puzzled, and the old village chief Fu, who happened to be strolling over, chimed in, "I told you to read the newspapers more often, but you don't. All you do is fish all day."

"Didn't the newspaper have a picture? A speedboat is still a boat, and it's much faster than our tin can! Oh, Wan, you're really giving our village chief too much credit!"

After scolding Fu Tiejun, Village Chief Fu couldn't help but feel happy again. Last night, he heard from Boss Fu that the food factory issue had been perfectly resolved, and Village Chief Fu finally felt relieved.

Otherwise, he wouldn't be in the mood to go out for a stroll today.

As a result, while they were out for a stroll, they heard Fu Wan say that she had brought back a speedboat. Oh my, that's a rare thing that you can only see in the newspapers!

Fu Wan couldn't help but smile at the pleased look on the old village chief's face. She decided to keep a low profile. If she told the villagers that the boat was free and that she had won a bet, the village chief and the other villagers would probably be even more astonished.

They were chatting casually on the dock when a deep, muffled whistle suddenly sounded from the sea.

"Bah-"

Everyone looked out to sea, where the large ship was getting closer and closer to the dock.

"My goodness, the more I look at this, the more it looks like a foreign ship from a movie?"

Fu Tiejun couldn't help but mutter to himself that not only the people on the dock, but also the men, women, and children who were digging for seashells on the nearby beach, all noticed the approaching ship.

In contrast, Old Li remained very calm.

He quickly ordered the boats near the dock to move aside, making a large space for the big ship to get closer.

As the large ship approached, two tall young men quickly disembarked.

One of them looked somewhat familiar to Fu Wan.

For a moment, she couldn't remember where she had seen it before.

This person definitely didn't show up during my last trip to the port city.

"Miss Fu, it's been a long time. I'm Mr. He's bodyguard, Ah Xin. I've come here especially to deliver this speedboat to you."

"You are... the young man who went to Shanghai with Boss He earlier?"

When the man spoke, Fu Wan remembered when she had last seen him.

Ah Xin smiled and nodded, "Yes, Miss Fu has a good memory. I've safely delivered the speedboat. Would you like me to have the boatman place it in this area for you?"

Compared to his previous indifference in Shanghai, Ah Xin's attitude has now undergone a complete change.

This is because He Guohua had told him several times that Fu Wan was his business partner and his friend, and that he could not show any disrespect to Fu Wan.

If He Guohua found out that he brought his discriminatory habits against mainlanders to his mainland comrades, He Guohua would definitely send him to South Africa to work in the mines.

So Ah Xin had no choice but to obey. He also knew that Fu Wan had won the speedboat from He Guoli. He had disliked He Guoli for a long time and had been bullied by him many times before. Fu Wan's victory made him feel very relieved.
