Zhoushan Island outside Ningbo Port is the fourth largest island on the southeast coast. In addition to Taiwan Island, Hainan Island and Chongming Island, Zhoushan Island has the largest area. In later generations, there were more than 400,000 people living on the island, and Zhoushan was also famous throughout the country for its seawater breeding.

However, during the Ming Dynasty, the population on Zhoushan Island was not large, with a total population of only 30,000 to 40,000 people. The island originally had Changguo County. Later, in order to prevent Japanese pirates, the county was abolished and the Changguo Security was established, mainly for the threats outside Ningbo.

The last time Tang He planned to move all the people of Zhoushan Island to the inland, but fortunately he was stopped by Li Jie. Now, not only local people are present on the island, but also the nine-submitted fishermen who had moved before, and are temporarily placed on the island.

The blackhead pierced into the sea for a long time, but there was no one there. When he came out again, he had already caught two fish with arms lengths in his hand, and then another swam back to the shore. There were already seven or eight big fish he had caught before on the beach on the shore. He took off his shirt, put the fish on his back and walked towards the village not far away.

Heitou and his father, Boss Wu, originally made a living by fishing on Poyang Lake, but they couldn't survive by fishing alone. Fortunately, they met Zhang Dingbian to recruit fishermen. Boss Wu had met Zhang Dingbian, so he quickly made a decision and moved with Zhang Dingbian. After all, staying on Poyang Lake was waiting to die. It would be better to follow Zhang Dingbian to have a fight, not to mention that Zhang Dingbian cured Blackhead's mother's illness.

Heitou was a very brave young man. When he was in Poyang Lake, he wanted to take the risk to go out to make money. So when he learned that Zhang Dingbian was going to take them overseas, he was so excited that he couldn't sleep all night. In his opinion, instead of living in such a daze, it would be better to tie his head to the belt and maybe he could have a future.

However, what disappointed Blackheads was that although they came here, their father, Boss Wu, did not allow them to participate in the exercise. This exercise was to select young and strong people from the fishermen and practice them in the military manner so that they could form an army as fast as possible.

However, not everyone can sign up, for example, the only son cannot participate, and the latter cannot participate. As a result, he occupied both. On the contrary, his father, Boss Wu, was a little older, but because he knew literacy and learned some martial arts when he was a child, he entered the army and even started a hundred households.

Thinking of this, Heitou was also a little depressed. During this period, he became familiar with the people under Mr. Zou and heard them talk about overseas life. Compared to their aggrievedness on Poyang Lake, although these people were dangerous overseas, they were at least free and easy, especially the life of eating meat and drinking wine, which made him yearn for it very much.

Soon Heitou came to the village where he lived. It was said to be a village, but it was actually a temporary settlement. The houses in the village were built casually. There were many similar villages on Zhoushan Island. Heitou had been to several nearby villages, most of which were like them. His ancestors were Chen Youliang's old subordinates. Most of these villages were built according to batches, and most of the villages were moved from the same area.

"Heitou is back." As soon as Heitou arrived at the entrance of the village, he saw an old man sitting at the entrance of the village greeting him.

"San Master, why are you out?" Heitou hurriedly stepped forward to salute when he saw the old man. The old man's surname is He and he is of the same generation as his grandfather. It is said that he had saved his grandfather's life on the battlefield. Because the old man is in the third place, Heitou usually calls him the third place.

"The sun is good here, come out to bask in the sun. How is your father?" The third master said, patting his knee with his hand that had half of his palm. His palm was thrown on the battlefield, and his legs were caused by living on the water for many years. He had severe cold legs. He was so painful that he couldn't sleep every winter.

"It's okay, I just don't let me go to the army!" Hei Tou was full of complaints when it came to this matter.

"Hehe, your child has been a brave man since he was a child. He is not a joke when he goes to the battlefield. You will leave your only child behind. If something happens, your father will have no shame to meet the ancestors of the Wu family!" The third master also smiled with his big mouth open with his teeth open.

"I know the danger on the battlefield, but Brother He and the others have all gone to the army. I am the only one who stays at home for free. It's really boring!" Heitou said unwillingly. Brother He is the grandson of the third master. Speaking of which, although the third master is disabled, he has five sons and more than a dozen grandsons. Half of these people have entered the army to serve.

"Young people are just motivated, but you are exactly the same as grandpa. He was also a desperate person on the battlefield. He almost died on the battlefield several times. It was because he was injured too much when he was young that he left so early." The third master sighed at the end. The old brothers who were with him had almost gone, and most of the rest were sick and could no longer go to the battlefield.

"My grandfather is lucky. Third Master, you are a lucky person. When we conquer overseas, you will wait and enjoy the happiness!" Heitou saw that Third Master was a little sad and immediately comforted him.

HeiTou only knew that he wanted to kill overseas. As for where he wanted to fight, Zou Pusheng and others did not tell them. After all, this was a military secret, but it did not hinder HeiTou's trust in them. After all, HeiTou and others' food, drink, defecation and urination are all the responsible for Zou Pusheng and others.

"By the way, I caught a few fish and came back. Master San, please take two of them back. The fish in the sea are much larger than those in the lake, and the fishy smell is not too much. It is the best to cook into fish porridge!" Blackhead said, picking two fish, pulling a branch and then sending them to Master San.

The third master was not polite, and took the fish and reminded him again: "Although you have good water quality, there are strong winds and waves on the sea. You should be careful when going into the sea and don't swim too far."

"Don't worry, Master San, I know what I know!" After Heitou said goodbye to Master San, then walked towards home.

HeiTou's home is right next to the village. It is a small yard tied with fences. There are several shacks built with branches and thatch in the yard. Although it looks very simple, for HeiTou's family who live on the water all year round, it is already very satisfying for them to have a piece of land to live in.

"Girl, pack up the fish!" Hei Tou pushed open the fence door and entered the yard, shouting loudly.

"Well, here we come!" The girl in the shack agreed crisply, and then saw the girl walking out in new clothes, then took over the black head's hand and packed it up quickly.

Hei Tou also washed his face with a basin of water, but when he saw the girl's new clothes, he couldn't help but smile and said, "Why are you willing to work and wear new clothes? Are you not afraid of getting dirty?"

When she was in Poyang Lake, the girl and her mother had only one set of clothes. Now, after she came here, Zou Pusheng gave them food and cloth, which gave the girl the first new clothes. As a result, she was reluctant to wear them and had to change into the old clothes when she worked.

"I do!" The girl's face turned red and said with a glance. Girls all love beauty, so of course she likes to wear new clothes.

"I'm still shy, but you're grown up, and it's time to talk about your in-laws." Hei Tou teased again.

"You'd better think about yourself. Yesterday I heard from my mother that our father was about to tell you about marriage!" The girl said without showing any weakness.

"Talking about marriage? Why don't I know?" Hei Tou was stunned when he heard this. He was still thinking about going to the battlefield. How could he get married so early?

But at this moment, I suddenly saw the fence door being pushed open, and Boss Wu, wearing a military uniform, walked in from outside. Compared to the down-and-out a few months ago, Boss Wu now seems to have changed his body. Not only is his waist straightened, but he is also much stronger. The wrinkles on his face and the white hair on his head are missing, and he looks like he is a teenager.

"Dad, why are you here?" Heitou was stunned for a moment when he saw Boss Wu, because this was the time for training in the army, so his father should have stayed in the army and could not come back.

"Good thing, I just discussed with your Uncle Liu. I will let you marry the girl from the Liu family in a few days!" Boss Wu laughed happily. His son's marriage was settled. For such a big thing, of course he would have to take a leave to arrange it.

"Uncle Liu? Is the Liu family sister going to be my sister-in-law?" The girl who was killing fish jumped up excitedly when she heard this. Sister Liu family is a famous beauty in the village. The key is that she has a good personality and the girl is very familiar with the other party. If the other party can become her sister-in-law, of course it is best.

"I want to marry Uncle Liu's daughter!" Heitou was stunned at first when he heard this, and then he was secretly happy. After all, he knew the daughter of the Liu family, and that was a famous flower in the village. I wonder how many people want to marry her home?

"It's not easy to ask your Uncle Liu to agree to this marriage. You can quickly clean up the valuable things in the family. I'll exchange a few kilograms of pork, then pull a few feet of cloth, and give the betrothal gift first, so as not to change my mind again!" Boss Wu immediately ordered again. Fortunately, he is now a hundred households. Although he has no privileges, at least his identity is higher than that of ordinary people, so the Liu family agreed to marry his daughter.

When he heard that he was going to give a betrothal gift, Heitou and the girl immediately ran to pack up their things. At this time, Boss Wu's wife also came out. When she learned that her son was going to marry a wife, she was even more happy to wipe her tears and immediately helped pack up the valuable things at home.

But to be honest, Mr. Wu is simply poor. Most people have steep families to describe people as poor, but the Wu family is not even four walls, only a few shacks. Fortunately, all of them who have moved are poor, so the betrothal gift is simple. A few kilograms of pork and a few feet of cloth are enough to settle the marriage.

Boss Wu's wife took out all the money in the family. They sold the boat when they moved, and then exchanged some copper coins. There were also several things that could be exchanged for money, such as a rusty waist knife. This was a relic left by Boss Wu's father. It could be exchanged for some money when taken out. Although it was not much, it was enough to sell the blackheads for the wedding.
