Chapter 865: Eight hundred sixty pure good intentions

One could say that with such surroundings,

even if this city had never been developed, it would still be worth a visit.

"Mom! Mom, look, there’s the sea!"

Tangtang immediately woke Ji Pianran, who was sitting in the passenger seat, upon seeing the beautiful seascape.

Ji Pianran, who had been slightly disoriented while sitting in the passenger seat, now opened her eyes.

As she looked at the seascape before her, she truly began to feel relaxed.

"We’ve finally arrived. Thank you for your hard work."

The first thing Ji Pianran did upon waking was to express her gratitude to Gu Chen.

Gu Chen had been the one driving the whole way, all by himself.

When Tangtang heard this from the back seat, she quickly said to Gu Chen as well, "Daddy, you’ve worked hard."

Gu Chen chuckled to himself upon hearing the mother and daughter’s words, realizing how well they were in sync with each other.

"What should we do next? Go grab a bite to eat, find a hotel to rest for the night, or head straight to the dock and onto the boat?"

Gu Chen presented them with a choice at that moment.

He was open to their preferences regarding how they wanted to spend their time.

Gu Chen was completely indifferent, as his role seemed to be simply that of a driver.

Hearing this, the two of them looked at each other.

Then, Tangtang was the first to speak up.

"Daddy, can you sleep on the boat?" she asked.

Gu Chen nodded in response.

"Our cruise ship has everything, food, drinks, entertainment, you name it,"

Gu Chen explained with a smile.

On a multimillion-dollar yacht, how could it lack such basic amenities?

Beyond just sleeping, if one wished, they could live on it permanently.

The only concern was the issue of fuel.

Of course, drifting at sea for some time wouldn’t pose a problem.

Right then, Pian Ran continued to inquire,

"Is there food on the boat? I’m a bit hungry."

Once he heard Pian Ran’s question, Gu Chen knew what they wanted and drove straight towards the dock.

Thus, the family headed towards the dock, with Tangtang looking forward in anticipation.

After nearly half an hour, they finally arrived at the dock.

There were numerous fishing boats docked there, large and small, and quite a few fishermen around.

As Gu Chen and his family drove up,

several fishermen began to approach, each carrying fish they had just caught from the sea.

These fishermen lived off the sea, relying on selling these seafood catches for their livelihood.

Gu Chen took a quick look and could tell that their catch was indeed fresh.

There was no doubt about their authenticity; everything had been freshly hauled in from the sea.

He would have made a purchase if they were planning a hearty meal, but now he was heading straight back to the ship.

At that moment, Gu Chen called the broker,

"We’ve arrived at the dock. Bring the boat over."

Gu Chen told the broker on the other end of the phone.

"Alright, Mr. Gu, please wait a moment, we’ll bring the boat over," replied the broker immediately.

After hanging up the phone, he saw that Monk Tang was actually playing with the fisherman.

"Uncle, uncle, does it hurt when this big crab pinches someone?"

Tang Tang looked curiously at the crab in front of him, which was bigger than his own face—a size he had never seen before.

"How could it not hurt? This crab could break a person’s bones."

After the fisherman finished speaking, he clearly saw fear written all over Tang Tang’s face.

To him, all crabs were the size of a palm, and even the bigger ones were at most a bit larger than his dad’s hand.

But the crab in front of him was larger than his face, and it seemed like it would be taller than him if it fully extended its body.

"Then, uncle, where is it going to be sold?"

At this point, Tang Tang also followed up with another question.

"This uncle doesn’t know, it depends on which customer wants to eat it, and that customer will buy it."

The fisherman had a lot of patience, probably because there were really no other customers around now, so he was willing to talk.

When Tang Tang heard that the crabs were going to be killed directly by someone,

he looked down at the big crab, staying motionless there, and suddenly felt a twinge of pity.

"Uncle, can’t we just not kill it?" Tang Tang said, his voice tinged with compassion.

For a child, compassion is often an easily observed trait.

Certainly, crabs might not have feelings.

But according to the education Tang Tang received, a crab was also a living creature.

That’s why he was pleading with the fisherman in front of him,

hoping the fisherman would be lenient and spare the crab’s life.

However, his words left the fisherman in front of him at a loss for how to respond.

Clearly, after selling here for so many years, it was his first time encountering a child like Tang Tang.

"Little friend, all of us here rely on selling them to make a living.

If we don’t sell them, all the uncles will starve to death.

We can’t let ourselves die just for the sake of a crab.

I have a daughter about your age.

If I starve to death, how could she survive?"

The fisherman was using his own simple, yet easy-to-understand logic to explain this to Tang Tang.

After listening, Tang Tang understood what the fisherman uncle was trying to say.

But this did not affect the reluctance in Tang Tang’s eyes at that moment.

For Tang Tang, it was as if he was watching a living creature die in front of his very eyes.

He felt very reluctant, especially seeing the crab sitting there motionless,

as if it had already come to terms with its fate.

The innocence of the child was fully on display at this moment.

Although he was still reluctant, Tang Tang also knew he couldn’t change much.

The surrounding fishermen were all looking at Tang Tang with smiles,

as if they were appreciating the purity of a child’s innocence.

Just then, a luxury car suddenly stopped at the dock. All the fishermen immediately ran over again.

Afterward, each of them started peddling the seafood they had just harvested.

This big boss was completely different from Gu Chen. Gu Chen came here to wait for a boat, while this man was genuinely here to make purchases.

"Pack all your best merchandise for me; I’m in a hurry.

Give me the lowest prices, don’t cheat or play tricks, if you want to continue doing business with me in the long term."
