My Deep-sea Fishery

Chapter 404 Grandpa Fu's Memories

"The burning of the pagoda confirms the prophecy of Laomiaozhu. In the early years of the Republic of China, there were only three thatched huts in Kuhai Bay. Because people came in every year to build shops and expand them, in the 23rd year of the Republic of China, Kuhai Bay became a material distribution center with hundreds of dialects. In the center, there are all kinds of goods and goods, the pedestrians are bustling, the business is prosperous, and the town of Bitter Bay is officially established and renamed Huhai Town."

Zhang Qicheng raised his head suddenly, "This is true."

"What's the matter?" Xiang Yang asked.

Even if there was such an event in Huhai Town in the past, Xiang Yang would never believe in the legend of Huode Xingjun coming down to earth.

"Have you heard of the Water-Splashing Festival of the Dai people?" Zhang Qicheng asked.

Xiang Yang nodded, nonsense, no one has heard of this.

"Have you heard of the dragon boat race on the Miluo River?" Zhang Qicheng continued to ask.

Xiang Yang probably understood, "You mean, this is a way to promote Qinglong Bend?"

"What kind of means is this to promote Qinglong Bend?" Zhang Qicheng raised his head and laughed, "This is God helping me, this is the sky that wants to prosper Qinglong Bend, burning pagodas, this unique and consistent non-material traditional culture , Huode Xingjun descends to earth, such a magical myth and legend, after the capital injection, do you think it will lose its reputation? Do you think there will be no tourists to watch it? You will feel that no one will come here because of its fame?"

Xiang Yang raised his eyebrows. He never thought of himself as a successful businessman, so he didn't think about this in advance.

In fact, the prosperity of Huhai Town in ancient times has a certain connection with burning pagodas.

At that time, the materials in a radius of hundreds of miles were extremely scattered, and the burning of the pagoda attracted all the nearby merchants. Over time, a prosperous Huhai commercial street was formed.

But that wise man never imagined that they represented the joy of a good harvest at that time, and symbolized the prosperous pagoda burning. At this time today, they could become an important commercial means.

Xiang Yang took out the walkie-talkie and shouted directly: "Driver, call the driver."

"Captain, I'm here." Xu Fang shouted beside him.

Xiang Yang ordered: "Notify the pilot team, return immediately, I want to return to Yanlong Village before dawn."

"Ah?" Xu Fang said blankly, "But we have just set out to sea, and we have prepared supplies for at least two months."

"It's not important anymore." Xiang Yang shook his head.

After knowing the real purpose of burning the pagoda, Xiang Yang can already see how much economic benefit the burning of the pagoda can bring to Yanlong Village.

For other villagers in Yanlong Village, this economic benefit may not be that great.

For Xiang Yang, who has several miles of coastline and sandy beaches, this kind of economic benefit is simply immeasurable.

"Really go back?" Xu Fang asked.

"I have to go back." Xiang Yang affirmed.

"Okay." Xu Fang gritted his teeth, "I'll make arrangements to return to Qinglong Bend at the fastest speed."

"Brother Xiang." Zhang Qicheng rubbed his hands together, "Let's discuss the sponsorship?"

Xiang Yang decisively wanted to refuse, but when the words came to his lips, Xiang Yang pondered again.

In terms of business vision, Xiang Yang can't keep up with people like Zhang Qicheng and Li Chao even if he flatters him. His greatest advantage is that he has a mysterious jade shell and can do things that ordinary people can't do on the bottom of the sea.

And even if this matter is handed over to Zhang Qicheng, it seems that there is no harm, and Xiang Yang can still get the benefits he deserves.

The most important thing is that Xiang Yang does not have such a wide network of contacts as Zhang Qicheng and the others. It does not have a certain relationship with such a large-scale event as pagoda burning. Even if he has money, even if he has historical background, Xiang Yang may not be able to do it down.

After thinking carefully, Xiang Yang said: "After going back, I will discuss it with the village chief Zuo, and ask the village chief Zuo to find the villagers to collect money. If the villagers don't collect enough, I will pay half of the rest with you."

This is the way that Xiang Yang can think of to take the most risks, while ensuring his own interests to the greatest extent, and absolutely guaranteeing that he will not be kicked out of the game, and the method that can attract Zhang Qicheng.

Zhang Qicheng thought about it for a while, then nodded and said: "Okay, then the villagers will contribute the money first, and you and I will pay half of what is not enough."

A smile appeared on Xiang Yang's face, "Happy cooperation."

"It's still far from cooperation now. This kind of thing is a waste of money in the early stage. Don't even think about getting back the money after a few years of precipitation." Zhang Qicheng waved his hand, "Okay, it's getting late, rest early, there will be more tomorrow." What's the important thing?"

Xiang Yang grinned, let alone a few years to pay back, even if it takes decades, or even several generations to pay back, he has an advantage over Zhang Qicheng, after all Xiang Yang is a local.

Nothing to say all night.

Early the next morning, the fishing boat returned to Qinglong Bend.

Xiang Yang ordered Chen Qingsheng to lead someone to handle the catch, while he and Zhang Qicheng went straight to Fu Agong's house.

Grandpa Fu saw that Xiang Yang was extremely excited, he thought that Xiang Yang supported him to inherit the non-material culture of burning pagodas without asking for anything in return.

This made Xiang Yang blush a little, because Xiang Yang was not prepared to support the restoration of this tradition last night.

"Sit down, Yangzi, Grandpa's house doesn't have anything to entertain you, eat an apple and drink a bottle of milk." Grandpa Fu is still in good health, although he is old in grades, he brought out a plate of apples and insisted that Xiang Yang eat one.

Xiang Yang was not hypocritical, picked up an apple and took a bite, then looked around at Grandpa Fu's house.

After all, Grandpa Fu is a retired principal, and his wife is also a retired teacher with a pension, so the house is fairly well decorated, and it is very tidy and clean.

Xiang Yang sat on the sofa, and Zhang Qicheng winked at Xiang Yang desperately.

Xiang Yang smiled and asked, "Grandpa Fu, do you still remember the scene of burning the pagoda?"

Grandpa Fu's eyes were filled with memories.

"It was the thirty-fourth year of the Republic of China, and I was still a child at that time."

"At that time, gongs and drums were beating everywhere in Huhai Town. The pagodas were built by the clan elders. The villagers collected more than 200 loads of firewood and countless chaff. At that time, there were seven characters on the door of every household. flags, and every reef along the coast is decorated with colorful flags, as well as star lanterns and Kongming lanterns.”

Xiang Yang raised his eyebrows, more than 200 loads of firewood, which was almost a huge sum of money at that time, it seems that this so-called pagoda burning activity is even more grand than Xiang Yang imagined.

Grandpa Fu continued, "It was New Year's Eve that day, and the whole town of Huhai was immersed in joy. Hundreds of people gathered together and sat on the plate. The adults drank and ate meat, and the children also had a red egg. Everyone was laughing and laughing. , It’s really a good life and carefree.”

At this time Zhang Qicheng frowned, he interrupted Fu Agong and said, "Hundreds of people? It took so much manpower and material resources to create such a grand event, and only a few hundred people gathered together?"

Burning pagodas is a real thing, and it is really an almost lost intangible cultural heritage
