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

Chapter 1498 Worried!

"Correct!"

"This is really amazing. To be honest, I'm not very good at other things, but when it comes to deep-sea fishing, especially taking others to deep-sea fishing, I have a lot of experience. You could even say I'm a very experienced person."

"I really never imagined that Zhao Dahai could catch so many fish just by setting a route, some fishing spots, and even some water depths."

"This is really quite amazing."

Shi Guangming has been thinking about this matter a lot lately.

Why are the fishing spots on their fishing boat so sought after? Shi Jiehua and Shi Zhong asked why.

Ultimately, it comes down to those who pay for fishing spots and are able to catch enough fish to make money when they go out to sea.

Nobody's a fool! They've spent so much money, even more than others around them, on fishing spots, and they're not catching anything and making no profit. When it comes to money, nobody wants to do this.

What I really can't understand is that I've been leading people out to sea to fish for so many years.

I'm not bragging, but I'm extremely familiar with all the fishing spots and routes. I can tell what a place looks like with my eyes closed, and in which year I caught a lot of fish.

However, no one could find a place like Zhao Dahai's where so many fish could be caught. The fishing spots and excitement Zhao Dahai provided were exactly the same as when he took others out to sea to fish.

In such a spot, only those who have reserved a fishing spot can catch fish, but not many fish.

Zhao Dahai was indeed able to help these people catch fish, and they could catch a lot of fish.

"The methods Zhao Dahai mentioned, or the fishing spots and water depths, are nothing special. I know them all too well. So why is there such a big difference? Why is it that when Zhao Dahai determines the fishing spots, other people who have chosen their spots in Shanghai are able to catch so many fish?"

Shi Guangming had been pondering this matter for a long time, but he couldn't figure out what was going on.

"what!"

“It’s not just you who can’t understand this, I reckon that none of the captains of other fishing boats, or even the fishermen themselves, can understand this.”

"In other words, if they could all understand this, then they could simply do it themselves, leading others to catch a lot of fish, or they themselves could catch a lot of fish."

Zhao Shi burst out laughing.

Countless people are probably thinking about this, especially fishermen and boat captains who take people out to sea to fish. They must be thinking about it day and night.

Is there anyone who can figure this out?

There are definitely people who think they've figured it out, but in reality, these people can't possibly have figured it out. If they really had figured it out, then there would already be news of people catching a lot of fish and making a lot of money.

But the truth is, after all this time, no one has caught a lot of fish or made a lot of money.

"Hey!"

“You’re right. If someone really figured it out, that would be incredible. But that’s impossible. No one could possibly figure it out.”

Shi Guangming shook his head.

Zhao Dahai has made so much money that countless people who go out to sea, especially fishermen and boat captains who take others fishing, are now thinking about it and studying it day and night. It's not surprising at all.

Who doesn't want to make more money? Who doesn't want to make a lot of money?

But in reality, no one can actually do it.

"never mind!"

"Why are you thinking about this?"

"Isn't this the best thing for your family? If other people could figure it out so easily, how would your family do business?"

"The other people aren't stupid, why would they insist on booking your fishing boat? You know, the fishing spot fees for your fishing boat aren't cheap these days!"

Zhao Shi couldn't help but laugh when he saw Shi Guangming's troubled expression.

It's perfectly normal for other people to be troubled by such things; they all want to catch more fish and make more money. But for Shi Guangming, there's really no need to be troubled by such things. He even hopes that others won't be able to figure out what's going on.

If someone figured out what was going on, or even found out where the fish were and how to catch them, it would definitely be a bad thing for Shi Guangming.

Shi Guangming was taken aback.

I honestly had never thought about this before, but Zhao Shi was absolutely right. I really wished that no one else could figure out what was going on. Once someone figured it out, it would mean they wouldn't spend so much money booking fishing spots on their own fishing boats anymore.

"Old Zhao."

"Do you think this matter is complicated or not? Can the other people really figure it out? Why is Zhao Dahai able to catch so many fish?"

Shi Guangming hadn't thought of this at first, but now that he had, he became very anxious and immediately asked Zhao Shi if anyone thought they could find out Zhao Dahai's fishing secret.

"What's wrong with you? You're so easily startled. You were just trying to figure out how Zhao Dahai found the fish and how he got these people to catch them."

"Now, in the blink of an eye, I have a completely different idea. I wish I could understand it all."

Zhao Shi was both amused and exasperated.

This is Shi Guangming's current mindset. At the very beginning, he really wanted to figure out how Zhao Dahai found out where the fish were, and especially how he made it possible for other people to catch fish.

But after reminding myself of this, I suddenly realized that the others should never try to understand this matter.

"Can these be the same?"

"I'm really curious about how Zhao Dahai finds the fish and how he fishes. I want to figure it out." "If someone else figures it out, they won't book our fishing spots anymore, which will affect our profits. And that's a lot of money, so how could we not be anxious?"

Shi Guangming's voice grew louder and louder as he spoke, showing how anxious he was.

"Damn it!"

"What's going on here? Why are you in such a hurry? If someone can really do this, can you stop them?"

Zhao Shi glared fiercely at Shi Guangming.

Shi Guangming was definitely very anxious, just as he said, because this was related to making a lot of money.

However, logically speaking, if someone could actually do this, even the King of Heaven himself couldn't stop them.

Shi Guangming was a little dumbfounded, but he immediately nodded. It really was like that. If someone could figure this out and do it.

What methods can I use to stop it?
There is no way!

"Didn't I say? Even people like you and me, with extensive fishing or angling experience, don't know how Zhao Dahai did it. How much better can other fishermen be than us?"

"The matter really doesn't seem complicated at all. Even if the fishing boat or speedboat is moored in one place, Zhao Dahai can catch fish as long as he says he's fishing."

"But have you ever seen anyone who can do this, especially after the news spread that Zhao Dahai caught a lot of fish and made a lot of money at sea? What kind of person can show such ability?"

Zhao Shi understood perfectly why Shi Guangming was so concerned about this matter, but there was really no need to worry about it; no one else could possibly have such abilities.

Shi Guangming's current anxiety stems from his excessive concern.

If someone truly possessed such abilities, things wouldn't be like they are now.

Shi Guangming thought for a moment, then let out a long breath, his heart, which had been tense for a moment, immediately relaxed.

Zhao Shi was right. If someone really had such skill, things would be different now. Or, the news from the fishing boats at Shijiao Village Wharf would have spread that someone had taken others out to sea and caught a lot of fish. But until now, I have never heard of anyone or anyone on a fishing boat catching a lot of fish and making a lot of money.

On the contrary, what I've been hearing lately is that other fishing boats are finding it increasingly difficult to make a living, or that even if people book fishing spots, almost none of them are making any money. They're all complaining about why the captains of those fishing boats are so incompetent, and that the gap between them and Zhao Dahai, Shi Zhongwei, or Shi Jiehua's fishing boats is really quite large.

After Shi Guangming figured things out, a smile immediately appeared on his face. He knew that he had really been overthinking things, and it was completely unnecessary.

"what!"

"Old Zhao!"

"I'm starting to think your point is very valid. If those other people really had that kind of skill, the news would have spread long ago. How come we haven't heard anyone say they've taken others out to sea to fish and caught a lot of fish yet?"

Shi Guangming is now completely relieved. It really is true. If someone really has such abilities, it's impossible to keep it a secret in this industry. The news would have spread 100% long ago that he is at the Shijiao Village Wharf and that he works in this line of work. If someone really has such abilities, it's impossible that they wouldn't have heard such news.

"It's just like what I was saying. We're both getting old, and there's not much we can do about these things anymore. Even our perspectives are very different."

"Some of the things I'm worried about, or some of the things you're worried about, are actually completely unnecessary."

Zhao Shi remained very calm about this matter. He knew just how capable Zhao Dahai was, and that Ding Xiaoxiang and other people like Liu Lei were also very capable.

"Isn't there a tall person holding up the sky when it falls?"

"Zhao Dahai and Ding Xiaoxiang are both tall people; they'll definitely find a way to solve these problems!"

"Thinking about it that way, then there's really no need to worry about these things at all!"

The more Shi Guangming thought about it, the more he felt there was really no need to worry about these things. Zhao Dahai and Ding Xiaoxiang were the most capable people in this generation, and the key was that they were really very capable.

No matter what happens to Shi Zhongwei, Liu Lei, or Liu Gang and Ding Chongshan, they all have to listen to Zhao Dahai and Ding Xiaoxiang's opinions.

Now everyone is cooperating with each other, and we are intertwined. Take the fishing boat fleet for example, Zhao Dahai and Ding Xiaoxiang both own shares in it.

Whether they can't catch any fish or face competition from other rivals, Zhao Dahai and Ding Xiaoxiang will always find a way.

If Zhao Dahai and Ding Xiaoxiang can't come up with a solution, then I, or Shi Zhongwei and Shi Jiehua, will definitely be just as clueless.

"Isn't that all there is to it?"

“Zhao Dahai and Ding Xiaoxiang are the most capable, so they have an obligation to take good care of Shi Zhongwei or Liu Lei and the like.”

"To put it more bluntly, it's like a hero needs three helpers. Liu Lei or Shi Zhong can't do without Zhao Dahai, and Zhao Dahai can't do without them either."

"Zhao Dahai couldn't have done everything by himself, could he?"

"From this perspective, no matter what happens, Zhao Dahai has to find a way to solve it."

“If Zhao Dahai and Ding Xiaoxiang can’t solve a problem, then no one else, including us, can solve it either.”

Zhao Shi knew his own limitations, and he was even more aware of the limitations of people like Shi Guangming, Liu Gang, and Shi Jiehua.

This may sound harsh, or perhaps too blunt, but that's the truth: if Zhao Dahai and Ding Xiaoxiang can't solve a problem, then none of the others can either.

"Ok!"

"That's really how it is. Let's not worry about these things and just eat and drink well to pass the time."

Shi Guangming nodded heavily and stopped talking about these things.
