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

Chapter 1509 Another day, one after another.

At first, Zhao Shi and Shi Guangming were just smoking on the sidelines, and sometimes they would help catch the fish with a net, but soon they found themselves busy.

"Why are there so many sea bass in this sea?"

……

"Yo!"

"Another big one!"

……

"Liu Lei!"

"What's wrong with you? Every time you catch a big one, it's already exhausted by the time you get it to the side of the speedboat."

……

Shi Guangming stood next to Liu Lei with the net, and he had to help scoop up almost every fish.

Zhao Dahai didn't need to pay attention. He was strong enough to pull any fish, no matter how big, to the speedboat. As long as the hook was secure enough, he could simply hold the rod with both hands and fly the fish onto the speedboat.

Zhong Shizhu only needs to obtain funds sometimes; most of the time, he doesn't need them.

"Grandpa Stone".

"It's really not my fault. One reason is that the fish here are just too big, and the other is that the fish bite too fiercely."

"After I finished pulling up one fish, before I could even catch my breath, another fish took the bait."

"What are we going to do? We can't just give up fishing, can we? By the time we got it to the speedboat, it was completely exhausted!"

Liu Lei took several deep breaths before slowly recovering a little.

To be honest, it wasn't really his fault. Zhao Dahai found the location of these daffodils, and there were so many sea bass in the sea, one after another. As long as the hook was put around his neck and he put it into the sea, a fish would bite in the blink of an eye.

To catch as many fish as possible, once a fish takes the bait, you don't need to worry about anything else; just quickly and forcefully strike it back.

Another very important thing is that there are people fishing on both sides of the speedboat. Zhong Shizhu, Liu Bin, Lei Dayou, they are all fishing. If they move too slowly, the sea bass will tangle their lines.

Liu Lei had no choice but to forcibly pull the sea bass that was hooked onto the hook.

There's not much to say about sea bass weighing seven or eight pounds, or even five or six pounds; they're very easy to handle these days.

However, if it's a sea bass that weighs over 20 pounds, then it's not so easy to deal with.

It's not that we can't deal with it, it's just that it's really not that easy to deal with.

At first, there were definitely no problems. Recently, I've been going out to sea fishing with Zhao Dahai and I've gotten the hang of it.

But right now I'm still finding it hard to keep up, and I still feel really tired.

"what!"

"I can see you're already out of breath. You don't need to fish here anymore. Wait half an hour and go to another spot. You can fish there if you want."

Seeing Liu Lei's condition, Zhong Shizhu knew he was out of energy and should continue fishing. There was no need to force himself to fish; he should rest and wait until later when he had more energy.

Liu Lei hesitated for a moment, but nodded. He really couldn't take it anymore. In just two hours, he had caught at least 800 to 1,000 jin of sea bass, which was the most he could catch.

If a fish actually takes the bait and you can't pull it back yourself, and you rush to the side and tangle Zhong Shizhu or Zhao Dahai's lines, you'll only make things worse.

"Ugh!"

"Second Grandpa."

"I have a feeling that Uncle Shizhu and his team don't earn their money easily."

"Being able to fish continuously like this requires a lot of skill; most people just can't do it!"

Liu Lei simply plopped down on the deck of the speedboat, ignoring the seawater; he was just too tired.

Zhong Shizhu, Liu Bin, and Lei Dayou did make a lot of money, but the intensity of their fishing is something that not everyone can do.

"Correct!"

"This is something that not just anyone can do. You really need to have good physical strength, otherwise you'll have to take a break after catching only a few fish."

"It's really impossible to make that kind of money."

Zhao Shi nodded.

Liu Lei was absolutely right. Others only saw that Zhong Shizhu, Liu Bin, and Lei Dayou made a lot of money following Zhao Dahai.

At the time, none of them knew just how intense Zhong Shizhu, Liu Bin, and Lei Dayou's fishing was.

Zhao Dahai almost always manages to find places where large schools of fish gather, which means he has to catch the most fish in the shortest amount of time.

There's no way to do that, especially for someone like Liu Lei who only tried fishing once and couldn't keep going. He definitely couldn't do this job.

To put it bluntly, if you fish too slowly, you won't be able to catch enough fish. Zhao Dahai definitely wouldn't want someone like that.

Those who think that they can do anything Lei Dayou, Zhong Shizhu, and Liu Bin can do, and that they can make a lot of money just by going out to sea fishing with Zhao Dahai, are really overthinking it.

Despite his weight, Liu Lei is actually very fit and strong. After a few days of training, he has gotten used to it, but he can't keep it up for too long.

We only fished for a little over an hour, less than two hours, before we had to stop and rest.

Zhong Shizhu, Liu Bin, and Lei Da have been fishing in the sea for many years, so they are certainly very strong. But another very important point is that they can endure the hardship and toil.

Liu Lei nodded.

No matter what kind of money you make, it's never easy; it always requires a lot of hard work.

The more money you earn, the harder you work.

Zhong Shizhu, Liu Bin, and Lei Dayou have earned so much money, and that's why they have to work so hard.

Zhao Dahai earns more money! But Zhao Dahai actually works much harder!
However, the hardships they endure are invisible to others.

What others can see is how much money Zhao Dahai has made.

While talking to Zhao Shi and Shi Guangming, Liu Lei kept scooping fish for Zhong Shizhu. Even so, he was still a bit flustered.

Zhao Dahai, along with Zhong Shizhu, Liu Bin, and Lei Dayou, drove two speedboats, fishing along the waterline. They would move from one spot to another after they finished fishing in one spot. There were plenty of fish in each spot, and they were biting very fiercely.

They kept fishing, and the number of sea bass in the live water tanks of the two speedboats kept increasing. Xu Dachui looked down at the fish in the live water tanks he had been trying to justify himself. They didn't think there were a lot of fish, but they were all pretty big. The two brothers together had probably caught about 500 pounds of sea bass.

"Not bad!"

"The fish we caught today are actually quite good!"

"With five or six hundred catties of fish, plus fish of this size, I've finally made money today."

Xu Dachui was overjoyed; it had been quite a long time since he had caught so many fish.

"Dry!"

"We really can't make money during the fishing moratorium, but it's almost over now, so we'll start making money soon!"

Xu Xiaochui wiped the seawater off his face. The tail of the large sea bass that had just been hoisted up slapped him twice. He was covered in seawater, but even so, he was still very happy.

As long as I can catch fish, I don't care if I just get splashed with water, or even if I fall into the sea.

"Xu Dachui".

"You made the right decision. Luckily, we didn't chase after Zhao Dahai."

"Although we haven't caught too many fish yet, we haven't caught too few either."

"It's definitely profitable, and we've made quite a bit of money."

"If we really go after Zhao Dahai, no one knows what might happen, and we might not even earn a single penny."

Song Tianping was very glad that he hadn't insisted on chasing after Zhao Dahai's package, but instead stayed here to continue fishing for sea bass in the foam area.

If you were to chase after Zhao Dahai, you might be able to catch more fish and earn more money, but the chances of that are really slim.

Instead, they stayed here to fish. Although they didn't catch a lot of fish, they were making a steady profit, and honestly, not a small amount. The two brothers, Xu Dachui and Xu Xiaochui, were quite satisfied.

"Isn't that the gist of it? The most important thing for us fishermen is to make a steady profit."

"Zhao Dahai can catch a lot of fish and make a lot of money, that's Zhao Dahai's business, it has nothing to do with us."

Xu Dachui smiled and nodded. Looking back now, he realized that his idea was absolutely right. If he had insisted on chasing Zhao Dahai a few hours ago, he didn't know what would have happened.

Although the money I'm earning now may not seem like much, it's not a small amount either.

The key is that money you can earn in your own hands is real money. Other money, no matter how much you earn, is meaningless if you can't keep it in your own hands.

"Correct!"

"That's really how it is!"

"We're really lucky we stayed here to fish. If we had gone somewhere else, I don't know what would have happened, especially with Zhao Dahai. We might not have been able to catch any fish, or we might have just been able to watch him fish."

Song Tianping smiled and nodded. By now, the foamy area had slowly disappeared, and there were hardly any fish left. It was almost impossible to catch anything, so he simply stopped fishing and lit a cigarette.

A bird in the hand is worth two in the bush. For me, Xu Dachui, and Xu Xiaochui, how many fish others, especially Zhao Dahai, catch is none of their business. The most important thing is to see how many fish I can catch.

"what?"

"Aren't these Zhao Dahai's two speedboats? Why are they back again? And are they fishing now?"

Xu Xiaochui set up his fishing rod; today's fishing was over. Now it was time to rest for a bit before heading home.

Xu Xiaochui stretched and looked around, noticing two speedboats moored in the distance. He hadn't paid much attention at first, but this was a popular fishing spot, and there were plenty of people fishing there. It wouldn't be unusual to see two speedboats, or even twenty.

But they soon discovered that these two speedboats were different from the others around them. Unlike the speedboats fishing in the foam area, these two were moored in an open space, with no other speedboats fishing for a considerable distance around.

Something's not right!

Xu Xiaochui took a closer look and immediately realized that the two speedboats were very large and very familiar. After another look, he was 100% certain that they were Zhao Dahai's two speedboats.

Why are Zhao Dahai's two speedboats moored in a place like that?

"Why does it look like they're fishing?"

Xu Xiaochui was a little confused. As he spoke, he picked up the binoculars and looked at the screen. His expression suddenly turned very ugly.

It really was Zhao Dahai's two speedboats.

They really are fishing!

The key point is that this is not just fishing; it's about pulling out sea bass weighing ten or twenty kilograms one after another from the sea.

The people on the speedboat didn't stop!

"Dry!"

"It really is Zhao Dahai's two speedboats, and aren't there no fish here now? Why are they still fishing?"

Upon hearing Xu Xiaochui's words, Song Tianping immediately picked up a telescope and looked very clearly. He saw that Zhao Dahai's two speedboats were fishing.

Song Tianping watched for about ten minutes as Zhao Dahai, Zhong Shizhu, and the others kept fishing without stopping. As soon as they cast their hooks into the sea with live shrimp on them, fish would immediately bite.

"Dry!"

"What exactly happened? Why is it like this?"

"Didn't Zhao Dahai go fishing somewhere else? How come he's here at this hour? And how come there are still fish at this time?"

Xu Xiaochui was a little exasperated.

I was in a great mood today because I caught a lot of fish, but seeing this scene now makes me very angry.

My good mood was completely swept away.

"go!"

"What are you standing there for? Let's go see what's going on! Why is Zhao Dahai fishing in a place like that, and catching so many fish!"

Xu Dachui originally wanted to keep waiting and see if he could catch a couple more sea bass. After all, the foamy area hadn't completely disappeared yet, and if he continued fishing for a while, he might be able to catch one or two big sea bass. But now he really couldn't take it anymore.

Upon hearing this, Xu Xiaochui realized what was happening and immediately drove his speedboat away from the foam area, heading directly towards Zhao Dahai's two speedboats.

Song Tianping was stunned for a moment, but immediately realized what was happening and followed in his speedboat. Xu Dachui was right; the most important thing now was to get there and see what was going on. Why were they all basically unable to catch any fish, while Zhao Dahai was still pulling sea bass out of the sea one after another?
