The journey didn’t last long; without needing to board, I was caught by Shi Ye and the others right in the terminal. Fortunately, I was on Li Yunfei’s flight, so I didn’t have to carry my luggage myself.
Upon returning to Sanya, I handed Shi Ye a portable hard drive, and the next day, there was no sign of him or the others. Even Li Yunfei had disappeared, along with the three old men, and even the Mini Air Force had taken off. I had initially planned to take Li Ziyu camping on Wild Boar Island, but construction was underway there, so it was temporarily off-limits.
Sitting outside the store with Yi Laotou, I propped up an umbrella and cast my rod. There was no need to worry about poisonous snakes or crocodiles nearby, and Li Ziyu thoughtfully brought me an iced coffee. This was truly living!
“Hey! You’re back! I heard you went to Africa? How was it? Was it fun?” Before I could catch a fish, Old Zhang approached me in his Star Brand Army military uniform.
This military uniform was selling like hotcakes; regardless of skill level, wearing it gave off an impression of being part of a regular army. With the recent activities organized by the Star Brand Army, many fishermen had already prepared their uniforms in anticipation of participating.
As I accepted a cigarette from Old Zhang, my eyes sparkled with excitement.
“It was amazing! There were plenty of tuna over there, and they were huge—each one weighing over a pound. It’s a shame I didn’t have a boat; otherwise, sea fishing for tuna would have been exhilarating. The seafood market there had so many big fish—Ye Dongxingban—each weighing seven or eight pounds and priced at just a few dozen yuan. Just think about how many Eastern Star Groupers were there! It was a paradise for fishermen!”
“There were also Great White Sharks—one weighing forty pounds—and lobsters that were four pounds each. Azure Crabs over a pound! Jin Chang Yu were bigger than washbasins; you wouldn’t find any Xiao Yu under two pounds at the seafood market. Black Sea Bream? They just tossed them back into the water; nobody wanted them!”
Hearing me rave about it all, Old Zhang’s mouth nearly watered.
“So many big fish? If we could go there to fish, that would be fantastic! Here in our country, going out to sea and casting a rod for a day might yield two tunas at best. With that time spent, it would be better to go there and enjoy.”
“You went to Tanzania, right? You’ve been gone for so long; didn’t you ask if there were any fishing boats taking people out?” As I bragged, Old Zhang actually seemed tempted.
“Who had time for that? I was too busy eating! I had planned to go out to sea for two weeks but got dragged back by Ye Ge before I could even find a boat. If I had known Ye Ge was going over, I would have found a boat for some sea fishing.”
Not wanting to continue this topic for fear of truly convincing Old Zhang to go to Africa, I glanced at his panda-like eyes and changed the subject. “What happened to your eyes? Did someone hit you?”
With Old Zhang’s reputation, no one would dare lay a finger on him! If someone did throw a couple of punches around his eyes, he’d probably end up selling his car and house!
Mentioning his dark circles immediately set Old Zhang off into a rant.
“The young people these days have no decency! They blast music all night long and don’t stop until dawn! It’s driving me crazy!”
