Rebirth of Fishing Village: Starting from Hua Axiang in Jiehu Village

Chapter 1175 Regret
"Old man Zhao!"

"You are right."

"The job of captain is not something that ordinary people can do. Without enough experience, it is really impossible!"

Shi Guangming knew very well that without enough experience, he really could not do the job of ship captain.

Ding Dawen didn't have much experience, but his fishing boat was just offshore and wouldn't be too far away. If the weather was bad or something else happened, he could just drive back to the dock.

Deep sea fishing boats don't have this kind of thing. If they encounter bad weather, they can only think of ways to deal with it. It is impossible to avoid the wind port or return to the dock.

Shi Jiehua was able to do this because he had been going to sea with me since he was a child.

Shi Zhong is now only 20 years old, but he can still drive a sea fishing boat out to sea by himself. He has been going to sea since he was a child.

Shi Guangming had never thought of letting his two sons go fishing at sea. They could drive a fishing boat, but had no experience of going out to sea.

Is this the time to start accumulating experience?
I am not young anymore and I really can’t do this kind of job, or there is no need for me to do such a thing.

"Let's wait and see what plans Zhao Dahai and Ding Xiaoxiang will come up with next."

"If you need help, just call us back."

"Whatever you can do, it's better than working outside."

"One is that the money I earn is definitely more than working outside, and it's much more. Another thing is that I'm closer to my family at home, so if there's anything going on, don't we all stay together?"

Zhao Shi made up his mind.

"Correct!"

“That’s actually what happened.”

"There is no work to do at home and I can't make money. I have to go somewhere else."

“We have to do it even if we have to leave our hometown.”

"But now there is work to do, so there is really no need to go somewhere else."

Shi Guangming strongly agrees with this idea.

Going to some other place, after all, it is not your hometown, many things will be very troublesome. Another thing is that the family is not together, which is really not good.

Zhao Shi and Shi Guangming saw that it was getting late and went back to the cabin to sleep.

Ding Dawen made a cup of boiling hot strong tea and took two sips.

Zhao Shi and Shi Guangming didn't say much when they were talking just now, but he knew that what Zhao Shi and Shi Guangming said were very reasonable, especially about going out to work, which he had a deep understanding of.

Ding Dawen sat in the cab for a while and then stood up and went to the live water tank of the fishing boat. He carefully looked at the fish in it, especially the fish that Zhao Dahai and they had just caught today.

Ding Dawen looked at it carefully and found no problems, so he returned to the driver's seat.

Five o'clock in the morning.

Ding Dawen was on the deck of the fishing boat watching Zhao Dahai, Zhong Shizhu, Liu Bin and Lei Dayou drive away on a speedboat.

Ding Dawen walked to the bow of the fishing boat and looked at the sea carefully. The weather was good today.

I wonder if Zhao Dahai can catch a big grouper today?
Ding Dawen looked at the sea in the distance. The artificial islands and reefs were not visible, but they were in that direction.

There can't possibly be no groupers in places like artificial islands and reefs. If you can't catch them, it must be because the groupers haven't been biting recently.

If something like this really happened, Zhao Dahai would have no way out.

This kind of thing really can only be waited for, and we don’t know how long we’ll have to wait.

Ding Dawen heard footsteps and voices. He turned around and saw Wu Weimin and Gao Zhicheng yawning and walking towards him.

"Boss Wu, Boss Gao, what are you two doing up so early? Didn't we talk about this last night? Aren't you going to go fishing with Zhao Dahai's speedboat?"

Ding Dawen saw Wu Weimin and Gao Zhicheng and felt a little strange. They had already agreed on this matter a long time ago, so he didn't know why they got up so early.

"Has Zhao Dahai and his team's express delivery already been done?"

Wu Weimin looked down at the side of the big fishing boat and saw that Zhao Dahai's green speedboat had long disappeared, needless to say it had gone out to sea to fish.

"Correct!"

"I've been gone for almost half an hour!"

"You guys don't really want to go fishing with Zhao Dahai's speedboat, do you?"

Ding Dawen was really having a headache now. Wu Weimin and Gao Zhicheng had agreed last night not to go fishing on the speedboat and they needed to have a good rest for a day.

Another thing is that it is difficult to catch big fish in the sea now, so there is no need to go out to sea.

But now looking at the two of them, especially getting up so early, I really have this thought.

It’s just that Zhao Dahai’s speedboat has already gone out to sea, and has been out for twenty minutes or even half an hour.

It was impossible for Wu Weimin and Gao Zhicheng to go fishing at sea even if they wanted to.

"How can it be possible?"

"We just couldn't sleep well, so we got up a little early."

Wu Weimin smiled and shook his head. He and Gao Zhicheng really had no intention of going out to sea for fishing today. They were just a little excited. He had overslept and couldn't fall asleep until this time.

Ding Dawen breathed a sigh of relief. If Wu Weimin and Gao Zhicheng really wanted to go out to sea to fish now, he would have no way to stop them.

"What would you like for breakfast?"

Ding Dawen looked at the sky and saw that it was slowly getting brighter. The sun would rise soon, so it was time to make breakfast.

"Eat whatever you have! Why would you need to prepare a special breakfast?"

Gao Zhicheng shook his head. He and Wu Weimin went out to sea to fish, not to enjoy life. They just ate whatever was available. Fishermen didn't care about food and drink at all.

"Zhao Dahai and his friends had lobster porridge before going out to sea to fish."

"Let's eat this together!"

Ding Dawen nodded.

"Yo!"

"Are the meals on fishing boats so good now? Are they eating lobster porridge for breakfast?"

Gao Zhicheng said this half seriously and half jokingly.

"Isn't this true?"

"I put out the cage yesterday and caught three lobsters. None of them were small."

"I didn't think of taking it back to sell, so I just cooked porridge this morning." Ding Dawen nodded with a smile, turned and went to the kitchen. After a while, a big pot came out, and then three big bowls.

Wu Weimin, Gao Zhicheng and Ding Dawen each filled a bowl and, without much fanfare, squatted on the deck and began to eat breakfast.

"I wonder if Zhao Dahai can catch a big grouper today?"

While drinking lobster porridge, Gao Zhicheng wondered whether Zhao Dahai would be able to catch a giant grouper today.

“This matter is really hard to say.”

Ding Dawen shook his head.

"what?"

"Why do you say that?"

Wu Weimin was a little strange.

Ding Dawen is not an expert at fishing, and he is not even very good at fishing. If I have to say, he is just slightly better than the average person.

In addition, Ding Dawen has a simple and honest personality and generally would not say such things.

"Today's weather is not much different from the weather in the past few days. I guess the groupers in the sea will not open their mouths!"

Ding Dawen shook his head as he spoke. He really didn't know how to fish, but he knew how to check the weather. Today's weather was really not much different from the previous few days. So it was almost impossible to catch fish, especially big grouper.

"Hey!"

"If this is the case, there is nothing we can do!"

When Gao Zhicheng heard what Ding Dawen said, he knew that there would be no chance today. Different weather has a huge impact on fishing.

"Luckily we can catch the big grouper, and Zhao Dahai can also go fishing for sea bass and black porgy."

"No matter what, it won't delay making money."

Wu Weimin was a little disappointed, but this matter had some impact on himself and Gao Zhicheng, but for people like Zhao Dahai and Zhong Shizhu, the impact was not that great.

"what!"

"If he can't catch the giant grouper, Zhao Dahai will definitely go fishing for sea bass or black porgy at this time."

"The people in the reef bubble area are probably having a headache right now."

"These people really hope that the groupers in the sea will open their mouths. Zhao Dahai must not come to the island and reef foam area and steal their fish."

Wu Weiming recalled that he had been to the island reef foam area several times with Zhao Dahai. Other people who specialized in fishing for sea bass got a headache when they saw Zhao Dahai.

"Who told Zhao Dahai to only go to the island reef foam area to fish for sea bass? The other fish that can be caught will be greatly reduced? Sometimes, the sea bass caught by Zhao Dahai's speedboat is more than that caught by all the speedboats combined."

"This is simply taking money out of these people's pockets."

"These people have no way to do anything but watch."

Gao Zhicheng was happy.

If big grouper can be caught on artificial islands or other places, Zhao Dahai will not spend a particularly long time fishing even if he goes to the foam area of ​​the islands and reefs, or he simply does not go to the foam area of ​​the islands and reefs to fish for sea bass.

It is very difficult to catch grouper on artificial islands or other places nowadays, so Zhao Dahai must focus his main energy on fishing for sea bass or black porgy.

As a result, those who specialize in fishing for sea bass, including those who fish for black porgy, will be greatly affected.

However, Zhao Dahai was too powerful, and he snatched the fish openly, relying on his superb skills. Those people couldn't say a word.

"Speaking of this, I feel a little regretful. Why didn't I go fishing with Zhao Dahai today? Just looking at the expressions on the faces of the other sea bass fishers would make me very happy."

Wu Weimin suddenly regretted that he did not follow Zhao Dahai's speedboat to go fishing today. Now there was nothing to do on the fishing boat. Maybe he would have to go to sleep soon, but now the whole day was too boring.

"Correct!"

"We should follow Zhao Dahai out to sea today to take a look. One reason is what you said, Wu Weimin, and the other is that who knows, the grouper might open its mouth today."

Gao Zhicheng didn't think about this at first, but after Wu Weimin said this, he realized that he should really follow Zhao Dahai's speedboat out to sea. However, it was too late to say anything now. He really didn't know where Zhao Dahai's speedboat was fishing. It might be on an artificial island or reef, or it might be in an island or reef foam area, or it might even be on the way to Fengchejiao. Even if he knew where Zhao Dahai was fishing at this time, it would be useless. Ding Dawen's fishing boat would definitely not leave here, and there was no other speedboat.

"Boss Wu. Boss Gao."

"There really isn't much to do on the fishing boat, but I've put the cage down, haven't I? We can collect the cage at noon or in the afternoon and see what's inside it today."

"Maybe there's something good, then we'll have something to eat for dinner or supper tonight."

Ding Dawen pointed to the ropes tied to the side of the fishing boat. He had distributed a total of ten crab cages here last night. It was not easy to catch something very valuable, but no matter what, there would definitely be stone crabs or crabs, and sometimes even some groupers or something like that.

"Let's wait until the afternoon to pull the cage. We have nothing else to do anyway so we can just do this."

Gao Zhicheng nodded immediately.

There really isn't much to do on a fishing boat. One thing is to eat and drink, another is to sleep, and the other is to pull down the cage to see if there is anything good.

"How about we put a fishing net into the sea now?"

Wu Weimin suddenly had an idea.

Ding Dawen shook his head. It was not that he didn't want to put out the fishing net, but without a speedboat, it was not an easy task to put out the fishing net. It would be easier if there was flowing water. He could put out the kind of fishing net that could float on the water and flow along with the water. But even in this way, it would be very troublesome to wait to collect the fishing net.

"It's impossible to put out a fishing net, but it's possible to catch some fish."

Ding Dawen suddenly remembered that Lin Zuhua had come to his fishing boat to fish for mackerel some time ago, and told Wu Weimin and Gao Zhicheng that they could try to release the fish here to see if they could catch any big ones.

"Can you catch a giant mackerel here?"

……

"Isn't this possible?"

……

Wu Weimin and Gao Zhicheng's eyes widened suddenly.

"Why can't you catch any fish?"

“My uncle and Mr. Lin Zuhua were both here at Mackerel some time ago.”

"My uncle caught a giant mackerel weighing more than 100 kilograms, but Boss Lin only caught 60 or 70 kilograms, and none weighed more than 100 kilograms."

"I was very lucky. I caught a fish weighing over 100 kilograms."

Ding Dawen recounted in detail the entire experience of Ding Chongshan, Lin Zuhua and himself fishing for mackerel.

Wu Weimin and Gao Zhicheng had never expected such a thing to happen. The more they listened, the more unbelievable it seemed to them. However, they knew that Ding Dawen could not be lying and that he must have caught a giant mackerel weighing over 100 kilograms.
