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

Octopus #1521 is too small!

"Liu Lei."

"Why are you so happy? Are you saying you don't need to worry about your restaurant business anymore? Are you saying you're going to go fishing at sea with Zhao Dahai and the rest of us?"

Seeing Liu Lei's excited expression, Zhong Shizhu couldn't help but remind him that they should go back to their business instead of staying on the speedboat with him and Zhao Dahai and the others to go fishing at sea.

"Correct!"

“You come with us on this fishing trip to lose weight, not to make money from it.”

"I think I've lost almost all the weight in the last few days, so I definitely need to go back to Hongyun Restaurant to continue doing business and making money."

As Zhao Dahai spoke, he hooked a live shrimp onto the hook, lifted his hand, and threw it out. It landed in the middle of the foamy area of ​​the island reef, where the seawater was relatively calm.

Upon hearing what Zhao Dahai and Zhong Shizhu said, Liu Lei's face immediately fell. He had long since become accustomed to this kind of life, going out to sea to fish with Zhao Dahai on his speedboat these past few days.

"Hey!"

"I feel like I'm actually quite used to this kind of life."

"If my family weren't in the restaurant business, I might really have to come fishing with you, Brother Dahai, and make money from it!"

Liu Lei sighed deeply; he truly loved fishing at sea.

It's definitely very hard work, but the key is that you can actually catch a lot of fish and make money.

"Hongyun Restaurant is doing very well and makes a lot of money, but every day we have to think about how to do better or how to deal with other competitors."

"Brother Dahai!"

"The best thing about fishing here in your speedboat is that you don't have to worry about finding fish or not finding fish at all. Anyway, that has nothing to do with me. The most important thing is that you will definitely be able to find where the fish are."

"You can catch a lot of fish every day and make a lot of money. All you have to do is work hard. There is no pressure at all."

As Liu Lei spoke, he shook his hands. After talking for a while and resting for a bit, he had regained his strength and could start fishing now.

Zhong Shizhu, Liu Bin, and Li Dayong. They went fishing at sea with Zhao Dahai, partly because they could earn a lot of money, and more importantly, because they didn't have to worry about finding the fish.

If Zhao Dahai couldn't find the fish or catch any fish, Zhong Shizhu and the others would also be under a lot of pressure. But the problem is that Zhao Dahai not only finds fish, but he also finds a lot of fish.

In that case, all you have to do is work like crazy, and you don't need to do anything else. There's no pressure at all.

"Correct!"

"That's really how it is."

“When a few of us went fishing at sea with Zhao Dahai, there was absolutely no pressure, and we were able to make a lot of money.”

"What could be better than this in the world!"

Zhong Shizhu glanced at Lei Dayou and Liu Bin on another speedboat next to them.

Liu Lei's words were very clear and accurate. There was absolutely no need to worry about finding fish or not; there was no pressure at all.

Zhao Dahai was about to speak when he heard Zhong Shizhu and Liu Lei's words, when he suddenly felt the pole in his hand being pulled hard.

Huh?
Something's not right!
Zhao Dahai immediately sensed that the fish that had taken the bait was definitely not a sea bass; its bite was much fiercer and the pull was stronger.

Could it be that threadfin bream has arrived?
Zhao Dahai suddenly realized that this was very likely a threadfin bream, and a rather large one at that.

He and Zhong Shizhu and the others had been fishing in this place for several hours, and all they had caught were sea bass weighing around 30 pounds each. They had thought that today they might not catch any large threadfin bream as they had guessed.

I never expected it to happen at this time!
"Zhao Dahai!"

"Isn't this a sea bass? Could it be a threadfin bream?"

Lei Dayou was right next to the speedboat on the sea and had been watching Zhao Dahai the whole time. He immediately noticed that something was wrong.

The rod was bent very badly, and it didn't pull the hooked fish back immediately. You could tell at a glance that the fish was very big, or that it had a very strong pull. This was not the kind of fish that a 30-pound sea bass would have.

"Correct!"

"Mackerel!"

"The one on the hook right now is a threadfin bream, and judging by its appearance, it shouldn't be too small!"

"I thought there wouldn't be any mackerel left here today, but I didn't expect them to arrive at this time!"

Zhao Dahai held the fishing rod with both hands, waited a while for the hooked fish to escape, and then immediately started spinning the reel to reel in the line.

"This one is quite big, it looks like it weighs about 30 pounds, right?"

Liu Lei originally wanted to go fishing, but when he heard that the fish in the sea at this time were threadfin bream, and when he saw that the one Zhao Dahai had pulled to the side of the speedboat weighed a full thirty pounds, he immediately backed out.

I know very well how much strength I have, especially since I've been fishing for sea bass for quite some time now, and I really can't handle such a big threadfin bream at this point.

It's not that I don't want to fish, it's just that I really can't handle it.

Zhong Shizhu, Liu Bin, and Lei Dayi became excited when they saw Ma Youyu that Zhao Dahai had pulled to the side of the speedboat.

Catching a threadfin of this size must be very strenuous, but threadfins of this size are much more expensive than sea bass.

"coming!"

"Mackerel!"

Lei Dayou shouted, his face immediately turning red. He gripped the rod tightly with both hands, and after a while, he let out a long breath and began to reel in the line to pull the fish back.

The pull of the threadfin is much stronger than that of the sea bass. The moment it bites the hook is truly astonishing; I felt the rod almost fly out of my hand.

When Liu Bin and Zhong Shizhu saw that Zhao Dahai and Lei Da had both caught threadfin bream, and both of them were large threadfin bream, they knew that the majority of the fish in the foam area in front of them were threadfin bream. They quickly baited the hooks with live shrimp and threw them in.

"big!"

"That's incredibly strong!"

……

"what!"

"A big threadfin bream, catching one is equivalent to catching three sea bass!"

……

Zhong Shizhu and Liu Bin had just cast their lines when fish started biting them in no time. They were all large threadfin bream, and the two of them shouted excitedly.

Liu Lei was very envious, but he knew his own limitations and knew he had to wait until he regained more strength before trying to catch a threadfin bream. Zhao Dahai, Zhong Shizhu, Liu Bin, and Lei Da remained silent, focusing on their fishing.

A 30-pound sea bass might have time to talk, but a 30-pound or even 40-pound threadfin bream has a very strong pulling force, and it's not something you can easily deal with.

Liu Lei rested for more than half an hour, then cast his line to fish, finally managing to pull it to the side of the speedboat. Having no other option, he could only call on Zhong Shizhu to help him net the fish.

Liu Lei was panting heavily; he knew he couldn't continue fishing for such large threadfin bream.

Catching one was more than enough, so we simply stood by with the net and watched the threadfin bream land on the side of the speedboat, especially if Zhong Shizhu was too weak to help net the fish.

The sun rose higher and higher.

The waves on the sea did not shrink; in fact, they became a little bigger.

"What the hell! What's going on? Why are the waves like this today? Could it be that they'll get even bigger this afternoon or tonight?"

"If that's really the case, does that mean we won't be able to come fishing here tomorrow?"

As Song Tianping spoke, he hung a live shrimp and tossed it out, where it landed on the edge of a foam area.

Several hours later, the sea bass he caught should weigh about 200 pounds.

If we only consider our own catch, this is already quite good; we caught a considerable number of fish.

The two brothers, Xu Dachui and Xu Xiaochui, who were standing nearby, had caught about 400 jin (200 kg) of fish.

A sea bass weighing five or six pounds isn't exactly huge, but it's not small either; it's quite a good size.

The price won't be too bad.

I really made money today.

But the problem is, who should we compare this to?

Compared to itself, it's definitely not a problem. But compared to Zhao Dahai's two speedboats that are currently fishing in the island's foam zone, right next to the largest foam zone, it's far inferior.

"Forget it!"

"We've already made quite a bit of money from the fish we caught today. It's good enough that we've made some money. Don't try to compare yourself to Zhao Dahai!"

Xu Xiaochui was a little frustrated, but he knew very well that he couldn't compare to Zhao Dahai in this regard. The size and quantity of the fish he caught were both inferior to Zhao Dahai's. What else was there to say?

The most crucial point is that our abilities are truly inferior to Zhao Dahai's, so we can only admit defeat, accept reality, and even resign ourselves to fate.

Xu Dachui sighed, and just as he was about to speak, the pole inside almost flew out.

Xu Dachui's expression changed, and he reacted very quickly, immediately gripping the pole with both hands and lifting it up forcefully.

"big!"

“Big brother, big brother!”

"Be careful, this sea bass is huge, it's probably weighing at least twenty pounds!"

Xu Xiaochui turned his head and saw the curved arc of the pole in his older brother Xu Dachui's hand. He immediately shouted loudly, quickly put it away, and took his own pole and waited by the side.

"No way? Could it be that this huge sea bass really came from out here?"

Song Tianping was taken aback.

He and his brothers, Xu Dachui and Xu Xiaochui, had been fishing in this place for several hours, and all they caught were sea bass weighing five or six pounds, and sometimes they only caught three-pound ones.

The fish on Xu Dachui's rod is pulling very hard; it looks like it could be a sea bass weighing ten or even twenty kilograms.

Xu Dachui was a little nervous. The fish he had hooked was quite large, and the pull was really strong. It was completely different from the other sea bass he had caught in the past few hours, which weighed three to five pounds.

"big!"

"This fish is really big, it must weigh at least ten or even fifteen pounds!"

Xu Dachui carefully pulled the fish to the side of the speedboat, taking about seven or eight minutes.
"Mackerel!"

"This is a threadfin bream, it's not a sea bass at all!"

Xu Xiaochui looked at the fish in the sea and was very disappointed.

If this were a sea bass, it would definitely weigh over ten kilograms, but if it were a threadfin, it would only weigh two or three kilograms at most.

Threadfin bream are very valuable, but that applies to large threadfin bream. Small threadfin bream are worthless.

A three-pound fish can certainly fetch a good price, but it really can't compare to a sea bass that weighs over ten pounds.

Xu Dachui looked at the two-pound but less than three-pound threadfin bream that Xu Xiaochui had scooped up in his net and was very annoyed.

"Why not choose threadfin sea bass instead of sea bass?"

Song Tianping was extremely disappointed when he realized that it really looked like a mackerel.

If Xu Dachui catches a sea bass weighing ten or even twenty kilograms, it means that a large sea bass has arrived at the spot next to the speedboat.

Let alone catching a dozen or so, even catching just three or five would make a lot more money today.

However, if it's a three-pound threadfin bream, it's really tasteless to eat, but a pity to throw it away.

If the fish coming from the sea are threadfin bream of this size, it would be better to catch sea bass that weigh around five pounds.

No sooner had Song Tianping finished speaking than a fish tugged hard at the fishing rod in his hand, and when he raised his hand, his face turned somewhat grim.

"Damn it!"

"It really is a threadfin bream!"

"Does that mean all the sea bass have escaped? Is the sea now full of threadfin bream?"

"It's good that you have threadfin bream, but could you please get some bigger ones?"

Song Tianping pulled the fish back to the side of the speedboat with all his might, and when he looked at it, he found that it was a threadfin bream that was about the same size as the one that Xu Dachui had caught.

Song Tianping was very frustrated. He had caught one, and Xu Dachui had caught one. It seemed that the sea was full of threadfin bream, but these threadfin bream were just too small.

Song Tianping gripped the fishing rod with both hands, on the deck of the speedboat, with the hook he had just removed. Thinking of something very important, he looked up at Zhao Dahai's speedboat.
