Chapter 101
I'm very sorry for the late update today. My friend's wedding next Monday, as the best man, I have a lot of bullets and shit, and I'm doing hard work. ****
Wang Bo doesn't resist activities like blind dates, but he knows that it's not reliable at all. He is far away in New Zealand, so he can't meet a girl he likes and just take him there, right?
Besides, he also has a goal, Eva is very good in his opinion, especially when the glasses teacher stays with the children, Lao Wang feels that there are four words: good wife and mother!
It was only three days after the deal with Song Zijun was over, the weather was gloomy at noon that day, Wang Bo received a call, and then he took his parents to the town.
Dad on the road muttered: "What surprise? You are so secretive, what is this?"
Bo's mother asked with concern: "Did you know a girl from some family?"
Zhong Dabao grinned and wanted to laugh, but Wang Bo gave him a quick look to stop him from speaking, otherwise his thoughts would be in vain.
The town is facing the sea, and there is a pier extending to the sea. Some large and small fishing boats are moored around, but the largest fishing boat is only 30 meters long.
It was noon, the warmest time of the day in winter, and the fishermen in the town were packing up their boats.
Bo's father and Bo's mother reached out to greet the acquaintances when they arrived at the pier. Although they were not from the same village, most of them were fellow villagers who went to sea together, and almost all of them knew each other.
Seeing Wang Bo, someone asked with a smile, "Sister-in-law Wang, this is my eldest nephew? I heard that my eldest nephew has gone abroad. Did he go to Africa? Why is it so dark?"
The small town is near the sea, but there are not many people going abroad to work, so the news of which village has people going abroad will spread quickly and become a topic of conversation before and after meals.
Wang Bo had no choice but to smile bitterly. The sun in New Zealand was very strong, and he did get a little tanned.
Bo's father and Bo's mother are both very good-tempered, smiling and joking with the people around them. At this time, a large fishing boat that is almost new is slowly approaching, and the figure is gradually clear.
As the son of a fisherman, Wang Bo has a different feeling for the ocean and fishing boats. In his opinion, big boats are the most reliable means of transportation for human beings, which is why he chose to add a fishing boat to his family.
Land is the foundation of supporting a family, and fishing boats are tools for making a living. This is the most simple idea of fishermen.
The fishing boat painted with dark blue boat paint slowly leaned against the pier. The four characters of "Donghai Cyclone" were painted on the body of the boat with white paint.
The fishermen around are discussing who owns this fishing boat. The small town dock is only used to dock real fishermen’s boats. The larger boats are all docked at the county town dock, so there are few strange big boats coming. Everyone is very curious to see it.
Bo's father and Bo's mother also watched with great interest, Bo's mother also said to Wang Bo with emotion: "If your father went on a long-distance voyage when he was young, he could earn a fishing boat and come back at this time. It's not like there is nothing now. Earn it for you."
When the fishing boat docked, Song Zijun's driver came down with a briefcase.
Seeing Wang Bo and Zhong Dabao stretching out their hands on the pier from a long distance, he shook hands with each other and said with a smile, "Brother Wang, Brother Dabao, you have been waiting for a long time."
Wang Bo said angrily: "Actually, we have just arrived. Oh, this is my parents. I bought this boat for my father. He is driving a small sampan to sea. I am very worried."
Seeing this scene, Bo's father and Bo's mother were stunned, and the fishermen watching the excitement were also dumbfounded. After listening to Wang Bo's words, they naturally understood who the boat belonged to.
The driver shook hands with the two old people, and said in a warm tone, "Oh, is this uncle or aunt? You guys are such a good boy. Brother Wang is amazing. Young people who can buy a 300-horsepower fishing boat with full money are rare nowadays."
Father Bo stared at his son with wide eyes and asked, "Did you buy the boat?"
Wang Bo shrugged his shoulders and said, "Well, I just bought it, Brother Jun moved so fast, did you close the account so soon?"
The driver said with a smile: "The transfer was completed that day, and the boat was briefly repainted yesterday. Does the boat look more pleasing to the eye now?"
Indeed, the fishing boat looks much prettier now. Not only the paint has been touched up, but some parts have also been polished. From the front, it looks like a new fishing boat.
After verifying that the transfer procedures were all right, Wang Bo transferred the rest of the final payment to Song Zijun's account, so that the driver was gone, and he and the helmsman left.
Then, Lao Wang took his parents aboard the East China Sea Tornado, and said to his father, "Dad, this is our boat. You have a small fishing boat driver's license. You should be fine to drive this boat, right?"
In Wangjia Fishing Village, Bo Dae’s generation all went out to sea and ran boats when they were young. Many of them got a ship driving license and even worked as third mates and second mates on long-distance ships.
But after getting married, most of them left the long-distance fishing boat and returned to their hometown honestly. Although they made less money, they were less dangerous and could take care of their families.
This is also the reason why Bo's mother said just now that if Bo's father hadn't come back when he was young but had been traveling long distances, he would have saved enough money to buy a fishing boat.
The fact that Wang Bo bought a fishing boat for his family with full payment quickly caused a sensation on the pier. The people packing up around put down their work and got on the fishing boat one after another to observe it.
Previously, the group greeted Bo's father and mother in a very casual and joking tone, but now they are more polite when they are on the boat. Some people handed Wang Bo cigarettes and asked him the parameters and price of the boat.
Bo's father and Bo's mother are ordinary old fishermen. They have never been so popular in their life. For them, it is very beautiful to have a big fishing boat of their own.
You know, a fishing boat is not a car. Buying a boat is not only a few million for the boat fee, but also means up to hundreds of thousands of insurance, fuel, maintenance, net gear fees, etc. It means rich people.
In particular, Wang Bo paid the full price for the boat, which is quite shocking.
Bo Dad and Bo Mom stayed on board the whole afternoon, familiarizing themselves with each other from the cockpit to the stern cabin, constantly entertaining friends and acquaintances who came to hear the news.
In the evening, the family of three happily returned home, and Bo's father and Bo's mother began a second interrogation: "Xiao Bo, where did you get so much money? You remitted 200,000 to your family earlier, and it cost another 100,000." Half a million for a boat—that's 1.7 million!"
Wang Bo said: "It's very complicated to explain to you. Anyway, my money is absolutely aboveboard, so you can rest assured."
The two old men smacked their lips and nodded. They naturally knew the temperament of their children best, but their son's overnight wealth still made them feel anxious and couldn't accept it for a while.
Poor parents all over the world!
However, he bought a fishing boat. There is also an advantage, that is, the news spread quickly in the village, and everyone looked up to their family. Even Aunt Qiu was much more cautious in introducing him to a blind date...
