That day, the two Japanese ships were startled when they first saw a fighter plane swooping down on them, but only felt relieved when it flew away. After the island's surveyors, equipped with sophisticated instruments, had finished measuring the entire island, everyone prepared to board their ships and return.

Who would have thought that the ship would run out of fuel just after sailing a few nautical miles? Another ship immediately came over, tied the rope to the bow of the ship without fuel, and planned to tow it back. As expected, it also ran out of fuel after sailing a few nautical miles.

The captain shouted angrily at the crew: "Baga, a bunch of idiots, don't you know how to refuel the ship? Paying you such high salaries is a waste."

However, no matter how anxious he was, it was of no use. He quickly contacted the base by radio and asked them to send a ship to pick him up.

The captain's stomach growled and he asked someone to cook immediately. However, there was no food or water on the boat, so the captain had to work hard again.

It took a full seven hours for the rescue ship to arrive.

However, there wasn't much food on this boat, only some snacks, which were a drop in the bucket and couldn't even fill me up. There was no other solution but to drink more water.

That day, Mo'er found Aunt Yu from the neighborhood committee again and handed her four apples and a pound of candy, which made Aunt Yu so happy that she was grinning from ear to ear.

Aunt Yu said, "Girl, you are too polite. Tell me what it is. I will do my best to help you."

Mo'er said, "Auntie, is there any house for sale nearby? I want to buy one."

Aunt Yu thought for a moment and said, "You're right, there really is a family selling their house. They're said to be moving south to do business. Their house is a small courtyard house, not very big, but it's quite new and in a good location, not far from yours. Most importantly, there's nothing wrong with the house, no tenants, and the transfer can be immediate if you agree!"

Mo'er's eyes lit up. This kind of house would be perfect for his uncle to live in.

She said, "Aunt Yu, I want it. To be honest, my third uncle from my hometown is coming, and I want to buy it for him."

So, Aunt Yu took Li Moer to the courtyard to take a look. The owner, surnamed Liu, was a very kind man. The house was in a good location and quite new. They agreed on a price in no time, and Aunt Yu took them to transfer the ownership.

The family is not currently living in this house, but in another courtyard house not far away. Moer took out a hundred yuan from her pocket and forced it into Aunt Yu's pocket. She said, "Aunt Yu, thank you for your hard work. Please keep an eye out for houses for sale. I will take any that are for sale, the more the better. And if I can buy a house in the future, I will give you a hundred yuan as a reward for your hard work."

Aunt Yu held the hundred yuan in her hand, and her hands began to tremble. Oh my God, you just give me a hundred yuan, why does this money seem so unreal?

She solemnly promised: "Don't worry, girl. From today on, I will ask around for you and will definitely help you buy a few more sets."

After saying goodbye to Aunt Yu, Mo'er returned to the small courtyard she had just bought. She took out her key, unlocked the door, and entered the courtyard. Suddenly, hundreds of kilograms of rice and flour appeared in the house, along with potatoes, cabbage, and other long-lasting vegetables. The owner had discarded all the pots and pans, but Mo'er didn't touch them. One day, while Mo'er was in class, the gatekeeper came looking for her! He said the man who had been looking for her last time had come with a dozen other people, all carrying large and small bags.

Mo'er said something to the teacher and walked towards the gate.
