Chapter 11: To Him

"You don't admit it, right?" Li Changle grabbed him, "At the end of last month, I sent pomfret to the dock for my father to sell to Adong's house, and you dragged me to sell the fish to your house.
?????
The fish were weighed at home before being sent out. The fish weighing more than half a catty weighed thirty-five catties, and your family weighed thirty-two catties. The fish weighing less than half a catty weighed fifty-six and a half catties, but your family weighed them only fifty-one catties and three liang. You cheated me by more than eight pounds.
After I found out, I swallowed it and kept silent for the sake of being friends. You idiot, you actually said outside that I was a pig! You are my best friend, bah! Get as far away from me as you can! "
He recalled that in his previous life, when he returned home from selling fish, his father said that there was something wrong with Wang Mazi's scale. He also said that he was prejudiced against people and their scales.
Later, my father fell ill, and Nan fell ill. He was a poor bastard with no credibility in the village. He asked for a loan but could not borrow a single dollar.
Those good buddies who usually claim to be good brothers for life and do everything they can to avoid hiding away from him when they see him, for fear that he will come to borrow money.
Only silly Awei gave him all the money he had saved for who knows how long. Only then did he finally understand.
Beautiful words are worse than beautiful actions!
You don’t need many friends, one or two sincere ones are enough!
Wang Mazi was stunned by his merciless attack. He was speechless for a long time. When he saw the villagers living nearby standing there and looking around, he broke away from him and fought back with a livid face.
"You must be mentally ill! Your whole basket of fish was sent to me for sorting and weighing. After the water is lost, the weight will naturally decrease! Even a three-year-old child knows this truth, but you still have the nerve to say that I cheated you."
"Bah! If you open your eyes and tell lies, you will be beaten to death!"
Sister-in-law Li rushed up and pointed at him and choked: "You dare to swear to God that you didn't trick A Le into weighing his head? I was the one who helped the fish that day with my own hands, and the weight after weighing is still recorded in the book.
The same fish basket and the same scale were sent to Adong's house for sale. When weighed, the difference was at most one or two taels. When it was delivered to your house, the difference was several kilograms? Did your aunt give birth to the scale?"
"Ghosts are familiar with each other, and the more familiar they are, the easier it is to deceive! Ah Le treats him as a brother, and he kills Ah Le like a fat pig. Such a person is worse than a three-year-old child!" Zhou Ruonan also came out of the room to help. .
The corners of Li Changle's lips twitched twice: There were pigs coming and going!
The villagers who were watching also started talking among themselves.
"The scales at Wang's Fish Shop are probably faulty. My fish basket weighs at least fifty kilograms when it is full. Last time I weighed it at his house, I only weighed forty-eight kilograms."
"The same goes for my family. I weighed more than 19 pounds at home, but it weighed less than 18 pounds at his house. From then on, I stopped going to his house to sell fish."
"Ale, you are stupid! If there is such a heavy price difference, don't sell it to him, just sell it to Adong's house next door! I found something wrong at his house last time, so I immediately went to Adong's house next door to sell it!"
"Yes! He looks pretty smart, why is he so stupid?"
Li Changle looked at the speechless Wang Mazi proudly, feeling that it would be great to do it again, "I'm still young! I have to suffer some losses before I can learn to be clever!"
Wang Mazi was scolded by the Li family, and now he was told to his face by these people that his family's scales were not enough. Thinking of how empty the fish shop was, Li Changle looked sullen and wished he could beat him to relieve his anger.
He looked at the tall Li Chang Le, but after all he did not dare to make a move, and sneered loudly: "Awu egg, ask me to borrow money, and if I don't lend you money, you will slander my family by saying something about what you have and what you don't have. You deserve to be a poor devil for the rest of your life!" Just turn around and leave.
Li Changle stepped over and stopped him in front of him. He looked at him condescendingly and sneered, "I don't steal, I don't rob, and I don't defraud others of a penny or a tael. I am poor and magnanimous."
As the old saying goes, if the three poor and the three rich live to be old, who knows their success or failure in ten years? Do you think you can be rich for a lifetime? I will be poor for the rest of my life?"
He couldn't remember whether it was September or October. Wang Mazi's brother-in-law drove a large ship to pick up goods on the high seas. On the way back, he was intercepted by the Maritime Safety Administration ambushing him in the waters near Dazhu Mountain.
As his brother-in-law panicked, the ship hit a reef and sank. The cargo on the ship fell into the water and drifted with the current to Baisha Island, which is just around the corner from Baishatou Village. At that time, many people sailed out to sea in small boats to salvage.
After Wang Mazi's brother-in-law was imprisoned, the Wang family lost a capable arm. Later, more and more people became aware of the fish harvesting, slaughtering and eating the fish, and naturally the business could no longer continue.
The best family in Shatou Village has become a passing thing.
"You..." Seeing more and more villagers watching, Wang Mazi glanced at Li Changle with a gloomy face, squeezed out of the crowd and left.
He couldn't understand why he acted like a fool when he was drinking last night and was coaxed to death by a few words. How could the two good people seem to have changed overnight?
Does he know that he will not let his brother-in-law take him to go shopping?
Zhou Ruonan also looked at Li Changle and felt that he was really different from before. He felt a little strange and felt that this was good, but he didn't know how long it would last?
"Ale is right!" Sister-in-law Li sneered at Wang Mazi's back, "Old Wang's family relied on his son-in-law to help him and opened a seafood store to collect fish and sell them. Wasn't it the same as us before? Even the sweet potato shreds You don’t even have to eat it.”
"It's just that I've only had enough food for two days. Who are you looking down on? Everyone doesn't go to his house to sell fish. How can he make money?"
"I haven't gone to his house once this year to sell, and I won't go there in the future."
"What are you doing squatting there? Go back and eat." Li Changle looked around and didn't see Lin Changrong, so he led his son toward the house.
"Ale, you really got a giant rice fish and a giant flower dragon from Xiaohai today? Which puddle beside the reef did you find them?"
When the onlookers saw Wang Mazi gone, they all gathered around Li Changle and asked what they were most concerned about.
"I saw it in the big pit under the rocks at Dongtou!" Li Changle casually found a place with many rocks and puddles.
Agen's wife next door curled her lips, "There are so many puddles under the Dongtou reef, who knows which one you are talking about?"
"I didn't see clearly which piece it was?"
Li Changle spread his hands, "The tide had already started to rise when we got there. When I walked there and heard the sound of water, I realized that there was something in there. I was busy catching fish and didn't pay attention to the surroundings at all. You go and look carefully. !」
"Forget it, if there are goods in the morning, you may not have them if you go now." Aunt Agen turned around and walked back, planning to pack her things and go to Dongtou Reef Beach when the tide goes out.
"I'm back, there are still two nets that haven't been repaired yet!"
When the other villagers saw this, they also withdrew. In fact, they had the same plan as her.
Everyone who was watching the excitement had left. Sister-in-law Li asked Li Changle strangely, "When you were in the hospital, you said that the hospitalization fee was paid in full. Why did you ask Wang Mazi for the money again?"
"I did it on purpose!" Li Changle said with a proud look on his face, "If I didn't do this, how would they know that he even cheated his friends!"
Sister-in-law Li looked at him sideways, "You're not afraid that if you fall out with him, you won't have anywhere to play mahjong, play cards or watch TV!"
