Rebirth of a fishing village: starting from Hua Axiang in Jiehu Village

Four p.m.

Zhong Shizhu, Liu Bin and Lei Dayou yawned and walked into the cab.

"Yo!"

"You've been sleeping for so long and you still can't wake up?"

Shi Guangming drank a little wine at noon, his face was red, and he was a little drunk when he spoke.

"well!"

"I'm older! I'm older!"

"This is really too much to bear!"

Zhong Shizhu pulled up a stool and sat down.

"ha!"

"If you are twenty years younger, there will be no problem at all!"

Liu Bin took out a cigarette from his pocket and lit one.

"correct!"

"Where's Zhao Dahai?"

Zhao Shi didn't see Zhao Dahai. He and Shi Guangming must be a little curious. The two of them stayed in the cab and didn't see Zhao Dahai.

Zhong Shizhu told Zhao Shi that Zhao Dahai had gotten up half an hour ago and said he was going to the deck to see how the sea was and what the weather was like.

Zhao Shi and Shi Guangming stood up with hookahs, left the cab, went on the deck, and walked around. They saw Zhao Dahai hiding at the stern of the fishing boat and not on the front deck of the fishing boat. No wonder they didn't see him.

Shi Guangming walked up to Zhao Dahai and stared at the sea at the stern of the fishing boat.

"oh?"

"Is there anything you can say about the sea water today? Can you tell whether you can catch fish today by looking at this?"

Shi Guangming looked at it for a long time and couldn't see anything.

Zhong Shizhu, Liu Bin and Lei Dayou all looked at Zhao Dahai for a while, and then went fishing. If Zhao Dahai could really tell that the fish conditions were good today, it would be another day to make money.

"ha!"

"How can it be possible?"

"If you look at the sea water, you will know whether you can catch fish today, especially whether you can catch a lot of fish?"

"Neither the Sea Dragon King nor the gods are capable of this!"

"Moreover."

"This is not a fishing spot on artificial islands. The presence of fish here does not necessarily mean that there are fish on artificial islands."

Zhao Dahai smiled and shook his head.

Anglers or fishermen can indeed roughly tell whether there will be fish today by looking at the tide, but it is impossible to be 100% sure.

"Other people don't have the ability to do this."

"Zhao Dahai, you are not sure!"

Shi Guangming has been operating fishing boats for many years and has met many fishing masters. Others do not have such abilities, but Zhao Dahai is not necessarily sure.

Zhao Shi took a sip of water pipe and did not pick up the topic from Shi Guangming. Instead, he directly talked about whether he should find time to go back to the artificial island to put crab pots to see if he could catch more winter crabs.

Zhao Dahai thought for a while and nodded. If a fishing boat returns to an artificial island, it is indeed possible to attract the attention of others and even risk exposing the location where crab pots are placed to catch winter crabs. But it’s impossible to stop putting crab pots in this life, right?

"Second Grandpa!"

"When it comes to the Chinese New Year, I mean the two days before the new year or something, we go back and put out crab pots, and we have to put in more crab pots."

Zhao Dahai thought of an idea.

Zhao Shi and Shi Guangming looked at each other and nodded immediately.

"ha!"

"Zhao Dahai!"

"Your mind is spinning fast. This is indeed a good idea. Let's do it!"

Shi Guangming put away his thumb.

The places where crab pots can be placed on artificial islands are very valuable, so you must be careful when putting crab pots back.

The best way is what Zhao Dahai just said. The Chinese New Year is about to come, and everyone who usually goes out to sea to fish will go back, not to mention that there are not many people fishing on artificial islands and reefs. It was very safe to put crab pots in those days.

"ha!"

"Grandpa Shi!"

"Don't be happy so early!"

"Who knows if there will still be winter crabs on the bottom of the sea at that time?"

"We might have gone somewhere else, and our work would have been in vain."

Zhao Dahai was very happy to see Shi Guangming and poured a basin of cold water on him.

"How is that possible?"

“The next month is winter crab season.”

"There must be winter crabs in that place, and there are so many of them!"

Shi Guangming waved his hand, not worried at all.

Zhao Dahai looked at Shi Guangming and then at Zhao Shi. He was really not joking just now. He really thought that the winter crabs might escape when the crab pots were placed. However, Shi Guangming felt this way.

"Um!"

"Don't worry about that."

"Those winter crabs can't go anywhere else. After so many days, there will be more and more winter crabs in that place."

Zhao Shi took a puff of cigarette.

It is certainly possible for fish, shrimps and crabs in the sea to go elsewhere, but the structure of the seabed on artificial islands is very complex, which is very suitable for fish, shrimps and crabs to hide. Those winter crabs are unlikely to leave in a short time, and may even gather in greater numbers.

"oh?"

"Is it like this?"

Zhao Dahai was thoughtful.

The last time we set out crab pots, we caught a lot of winter crabs, which were very valuable. However, in order to ensure that we would not attract anyone’s attention, the fishing boat moved to this location and directly gave up setting up crab pots to catch winter crabs.

Zhao Dahai always felt that even if he kept putting crab pots and crab pots there, he wouldn't be able to catch too many winter crabs and the money he would make would not be too much, so he didn't take it to heart. Now it seems that things are different from what I imagined.

"oh?"

"Do you have any ideas?"

Looking at the expression on Zhao Dahai's face, Zhao Shi knew that he must be thinking about something.

"I'm wondering if we should have a big fight!"

Zhao Dahai expressed his thoughts. When Zhao Shi just mentioned that he went back to put crab pots to catch winter crabs, he just wanted to catch three to four hundred pounds of winter crabs, so that he could eat them by himself during the Chinese New Year, give them to others, and share them among several people.

Zhao Dahai now changed his mind.

Zhao Shi and Shi Guangming are both experienced people. They said that the winter crabs in that place will not go to other places and may gather more and more.

In this case, ten crab pots will definitely not be enough. At least thirty or forty crab pots will be needed, and there may even be fifty or sixty crab pots.

If there are really a lot of winter crabs, it will not be a small fight, but a big fight.

Is there a risk of doing it in vain? There is definitely a possibility of this, but this possibility is not too great. Even if all those winter crabs run away and are never caught, it just takes a little time and effort. But once there are winter crabs there, especially if there are a large number of winter crabs gathered there, it will not be a matter of making a little profit.

"Zhao Dahai!"

"Are you saying that two or three days before the Chinese New Year, we will put a lot of crab pots here?"

Shi Guangming pondered Zhao Dahai's idea.

"Um!"

"Why not?"

Zhao Dahai pointed at Zhong Shizhu, Liu Bin and Lei Dayou, plus Shi Jiehua and Shi Zhongwei. These people would have no problem placing not only fifty or sixty crab pots, but one hundred or two hundred crab pots.

"ha!"

"good!"

"That's it!"

"Buy two hundred crab pots later, wait two or three days before the Chinese New Year, and put them into the sea here!"

The more Shi Guangming thought about it, the more he thought it was a good idea.

Zhao Dahai saw that it was almost time, and immediately went back to the cabin with Zhong Shizhu, Liu Bin, and Lei Dayou to eat. After eating, he packed up the winter crabs and drove the speedboat out to sea for fishing.

Shi Guangming watched Zhao Dahai's speedboat disappear into the night. He didn't return to the cab and just walked around on the deck.

"Yo!"

"Why are you acting like a young boy? Why are you so anxious?"

Zhao Shi knew that Shi Guangming was eager to go back and buy crab pots now, thinking about going to the artificial islands and placing crab pots now.

"ha!"

"Don't you want to know now whether there are a lot of winter crabs in that place?"

Shi Guangming knew that his thoughts could not be hidden from Zhao Shi.

"Um!"

"What's the use of thinking?"

“You absolutely can’t go over there and put crab pots in that place now!”

"I don't know if there are many fishing boats and fishing boats in that place during the day. It would be a big loss if others find out."

Zhao Shi nodded and shook his head. He really wanted to know if there were really a lot of winter crabs in that place, but now was really not the right time.

Shi Guangming sighed. No matter how much he wanted to put crab pots now, or how much he wanted to know where the artificial islands were and whether there were many winter crabs on the seabed, he could only put them there first. Zhao Dahai said it would be a good idea to put in and pull out crab pots two or three days before the Chinese New Year, but now he can only wait.

Langtou Village Pier.

Night had just begun to cover the sea.

People were coming and going, all of them were fishing people, and it was very lively.

"How many fish did you catch yesterday?"

"About thirty kilograms. They are all small miscellaneous fish! They can't be sold for much money."

…

"The weather is good today. It looks like we should be able to catch more fish."

"I plan to put out two more fishing nets!"

…

"It's almost Chinese New Year!"

“Let’s see if we can make a little more money!”

…

People on board one fishing boat after another were busy chatting with each other while busy with the things at hand.

Wu Weimin, Gao Zhicheng, Lin Zuhua and Xu Yuanjiang parked their cars and strode to the parked speedboat carrying the poles, bait and other things they had prepared earlier. After a lot of effort, they all moved onto the speedboat.

"ha!"

"Did we prepare a little too much stuff, especially these poles!"

"Each of us brought four or five poles. Gao Zhicheng, but you brought more than ten poles."

Wu Weimin pointed to the deck of the speedboat, which was almost entirely piled with various poles.

"If you go fishing with others, you won't need so many poles."

"Zhao Dahai is different."

“It’s better to be prepared!”

Gao Zhicheng now knows very well that Zhao Dahai must be fully prepared when he goes fishing.

Wu Weimin, Gao Zhicheng, Xu Yuanjiang and Lin Zuohua took a few minutes to rest, checked that everything was OK, left the Langtou Village Pier, and went straight to Zhao Dahai's fishing boat.

Lin Zuhua shrank his neck. It is winter and the sea breeze is relatively cold. When the speedboat is moving forward, the speed is faster, and the wind blowing in the head is even colder.

"Why!"

“There are still so many people going fishing in this weather!”

Lin Zuhua complained that soon after leaving the pier, he could see the lights of fishing boats almost everywhere on the sea.

"ha!"

"Lin Zuhua."

"You are standing and talking without your back hurting. The Chinese New Year is coming soon, and it is the time when the price of fish, shrimp and crab is the highest. How is it possible that no one goes out to sea to fish or catch fish?"

Gao Zhicheng remembered that when he and Zhao Dahai went fishing at the Windmill Foot fishing spot two days ago, the whole fishing spot was full of speedboats one after another, all of them people who wanted to catch more fish and make more money for the New Year. .

"The fish, shrimps and crabs are a little bigger at this time, especially when the weather is cold. They eat more and are very fat."

"Why!"

"correct!"

"Gao Zhicheng."

"The winter crabs we eat on every boat in Zhaodahai are simply top-notch delicacies."

Wu Weimin suddenly remembered the winter crabs he had eaten on Zhao Dahai's fishing boat a few days ago.

"ha!"

"Don't talk about fishing, but these winter crabs must go to Zhao Dahai's fishing boat to have a good meal!"

…

"That's right!"

"If I had known that there were big winter crabs on Zhao Dahai's fishing boat, I would have come here a long time ago."

…

Lin Zuhua and Xu Yuanjiang's saliva suddenly flowed out.

Wu Weimin drove the speedboat and drove forward according to the navigation. He was not as capable as Zhao Dahai in being able to recognize the places he passed by.

"Yo!"

"I suddenly remembered something."

Wu Weimin drove for several hours, slowed down the speed of the speedboat, and floated on the sea.

"ah?"

"What's wrong? What did you think of?"

Gao Zhicheng took the time to take out the cigarettes in his pocket, gave each of them one, lit it, and started smoking. He couldn't smoke when the speedboat was too fast just now.

Wu Weimin looked at the speedboat's fish finder and pointed to the northeast.

"Is it in the direction of the reef foam area where Zhao Dahai took us to fish for sea bass?"

Gao Zhicheng often goes fishing at sea, and the sea area in front of him is more familiar. After taking a look, he immediately remembered the direction Wu Weimin pointed.

Wu Weimin nodded. The foam area of ​​the island where sea bass is fished is an open fishing spot. Anyone who fishes frequently knows that the distance is not too far, almost thirty nautical miles.

"ha!"

"Wu Weimin."

"Do you want to go fishing there? To see who is better, you or Zhao Dahai?"

Xu Yuanjiang wiped the sea water splashing on his face.

"ha!"

"Aren't you curious whether we can catch fish in that place, especially whether we can catch more sea bass?"

Wu Weimin looked at Lin Zuhua, Gao Zhicheng and Xu Yuanjiang.

"Yo!"

"How could you miss such a good opportunity?"

…

"Go, go, go!"

"Hurry up and give it a try!"

"Maybe we are both masters of fishing and excellent boat owners!"

…

"ha!"

“This has to be tried!”

…

Gao Zhicheng, Lin Zuhua and Xu Yuanjiang all smiled and nodded, and followed Zhao Dahai to catch a lot of sea bass in the foam area of ​​the island reef.

Now that I have such an opportunity, I definitely want to give it a try and see if people like me can catch fish without Zhao Dahai.

Wu Weimin saw that no one objected, so he turned the speedboat and drove towards the foam area of ​​the island where sea bass was fished.

Asking for a monthly ticket!
