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

Chapter 1615 I can't make up my mind!
"If there aren't many fish left on an artificial island, it's not too difficult to find a similar place, not exactly the same, or with just as many fish."

"Not to mention that Zhao Dahai himself has many very small fishing spots where you can catch a lot of fish."

"This is something no one else has!"

As Zhao Shi spoke, he couldn't help but laugh. Others might only be able to catch a limited number of fish in such places in the open sea, or they might not be able to catch many fish after a few years.

But for Zhao Dahai, this was almost endless; not to mention that he couldn't fish it all out in one lifetime, he couldn't fish it all out in ten lifetimes.

"correct!"

"The most typical example is the sea bass schools that come with the tide in the foamy areas of islands and reefs."

"The fish in such places are truly endless."

"For the past few decades, as long as there was tide, we could catch a lot of fish every day."

"This situation is unlikely to change anytime soon!"

"Zhao Dahai can make a lot of money just by fishing in a place like this."

Lin Zuhua thought of the island reef foam area, where Zhao Dahai could catch several thousand kilograms of sea bass almost every day.

Shi Guangming frowned, and both characters looked like bitter gourds.

Now I'm almost 100% certain that it's unlikely I'll be able to form a fishing fleet to go out to sea once Zhao Dahai can't catch enough fish in the nearby waters.

"Old Man Shi!"

"Do you think Zhao Dahai won't be able to build a fleet?"

Zhao Shi could tell from the expression on Shi Guangming's face that Shi Guangming was definitely thinking about this matter.

"Correct!"

"If Zhao Dahai can't catch enough fish here and doesn't earn enough money, he might very well start working on building a fleet right away."

"Looking at this situation now, it's really going to be pretty tough!"

Shi Guangming nodded helplessly.

Don't be fooled by the fact that four large fishing boats can make a lot of money by taking people out to sea to fish.

But who wouldn't want to make more money?

To make more money, you need to build a larger and more numerous fleet.

To build a larger fleet, and especially to attract more people, the people fishing from the designated spots must catch enough fish.

Everyone can catch a lot of fish, but a significant number of people must be able to catch enough fish.

This matter seems simple, but in fact it is not simple at all.

Four fishing boats are now almost the limit of what Shi Guangming and his team can manage.

The only way to expand the fleet is for Zhao Dahai to take it out to sea; otherwise, he really can't do it.

"We've talked about this many times before."

"Whether or not to do this, or when to do it, is related to the number of fish Zhao Dahai catches in the surrounding sea, but it is definitely not the only factor."

"We really can't make up our minds about this matter."

Zhao Shi was very clear that neither he nor anyone else could know what Zhao Dahai would ultimately decide on this matter.

Ding Xiaoxiang definitely knew, but she would never say anything about such a matter herself.

"The fleet will definitely be assembled, but as for when it will be assembled, we can only wait and see."

"Now, with four fishing boats, all of which are large, we are already able to earn enough money to go out to sea for fishing."

"Let's talk about the rest when the opportunity arises later!"

Zhao Shi knew that Shi Guangming had been pondering this matter, but there was really nothing to say about it.

Shi Guangming nodded. Zhao Shi was absolutely right. His family had already made a lot of money, far more than before, so there was really no need to make even more money. In other words, this matter could only wait.

The wind is getting stronger!
The rain is getting heavier!
The whole world was gloomy and overcast!
"I have a feeling this rain is going to last for days."

Shi Guangming stared wide-eyed at the sea outside the glass window.

The wind is indeed a bit strong, but not extremely strong, while the rain is very heavy.

You can barely see anything more than ten meters away!
Normally, rain this heavy doesn't last very long, but right now the whole sky is as black as ink.

Based on his years of experience fishing at sea, he knew from the sky and the weather that it would rain for the next two or three days, and the rain would likely continue to be heavy.

Zhao Shi nodded. It was very likely that was the case. He really hadn't expected the rain to be so heavy this time.

"Uncle Zhao the Second".

"This kind of weather is no good, is it?"

"I reckon fishing will be a bit difficult!"

Wu Weimin felt somewhat helpless.

We've already caught a lot of fish on this trip, so it doesn't matter if we can't go fishing for the next few days. But since we've already gone out to sea, we're hoping to catch as many fish as possible. However, with the weather like this, there's nothing anyone can do.

"Correct!"

"In this kind of weather, neither fishing nor catching fish is really suitable."

"When it rains, the air and water temperatures change a lot, but the most important thing is that the salinity of the seawater changes."

"This is a very troublesome matter!"

Zhao Shi nodded.

Wu Weimin has been fishing at sea for so many years, he couldn't possibly be unaware of this principle. He asked this question simply because he was unwilling to accept it and wanted to confirm it.

Wu Weimin felt extremely helpless.

"Anyone who goes out to sea is likely to encounter weather like this."

“For other people, this kind of weather is really troublesome, but for Zhao Dahai, it might be an opportunity.”

Shi Guangming walked to the sofa in the driver's seat and sat down.

It's raining heavily now, this is definitely not good weather.

Why do you say that?

Gao Zhicheng took a drag of his cigarette. Earlier, when it was drizzling, he, Zhao Shishi, Guangming, and the others were sitting under the deck's awning, but the rain got heavier and heavier, and they had no choice but to return to the wheelhouse.

"With weather like this, no other people would come here to fish."

"If it rains for a few days, it means that no one will be fishing for those days."

"Won't the fish in the sea go crazy from hunger?"

"Now that the rain has stopped, the others will have to wait another half day to make sure the weather has really improved before they go out to sea and come here to fish."

"The other one is getting here, which takes quite a bit of time."

"Zhao Dahai, Zhong Shizhu, Liu Bin, and Lei Dayou are here. They can go out to sea to fish in their speedboats at any time."

"It takes at least half a day, or even a whole day, more than others."

"You all know that Zhao Dahai, Zhong Shizhu, Liu Bin, and Lei Da are good at fishing. They might even be able to catch seven or eight thousand catties more fish than others, or even more than ten thousand catties."

Shi Guangming was well aware that Zhao Dahai, Zhong Shizhu, Liu Bin, and Lei Da were skilled at fishing, and this was not the first time such a thing had happened.

Zhao Shi nodded immediately. Every time the weather was bad, it was actually a good opportunity for people like Zhao Dahai, Zhong Shizhu, Liu Bin, and Lei Dayou.

"Oh?"

"So, if that's the case, then when Zhao Dahai goes out to sea to fish, we're waiting for the weather to get better, so you have to come along, right?"

Lin Zuhua immediately realized what was happening.

"That depends on what you think! If you want to come along, then you can come along. If you don't want to, then you might as well not go."

Shi Guangming smiled.

Wu Weimin, Gao Zhicheng, and Lin Zuhua could tell from the expression on Shi Guangming's face that he was making fun of them.

How could I possibly not go fishing at sea with Zhao Dahai's speedboat? How could I possibly miss such an opportunity?

Anyone who enjoys fishing would not want to miss such an opportunity.

"what!"

"You guys don't necessarily have to go fishing at sea with Chao Dahai!"

Zhao Shi smiled and shook his head.

Why?

Wu Weimin found it very strange.

Shi Guangming just explained it very clearly: after the rain, it is very likely that you can catch a lot of fish, and it is very likely that you can catch a very big fish.

Lin Zuhua, Gao Zhicheng, and I went out to sea to fish, and we wanted to catch big fish, so we couldn't possibly miss such an opportunity.

Zhao Shi shook his head and reminded Wu Weimin, Gao Zhicheng, and Lin Zuhua that once the weather was better, Zhao Dahai would likely go fishing for sea bass in the island and reef foam area.

"You've been to that island and reef foam area countless times, and there aren't any other special fish there."

"You guys have caught countless sea bass and threadfin bream."

"You big ones have already caught them, some even many times."

"What are you going to do there? You might as well stay here on the fishing boat, or fish in the deep pit on the seabed where the fishing boat is currently anchored. You might even catch a grouper weighing over 100 pounds."

"There's really no need to go with Zhao Dahai to the island and reef foam area to fish for sea bass or threadfin."

Zhao Shi knew that Zhao Dahai was waiting for the weather to improve, and it was highly likely that he really was going to the island and reef foam area.

"Uncle Zhao the Second".

"Why are you so sure that Zhao Dahai will definitely go fishing in the island and reef foam area?"

Lin Zuhua was very curious about this matter.

If Zhao Dahai really went to that island and reef foam area to fish for sea bass or threadfin, neither he, Gao Zhicheng, nor Wu Weimin were really interested.

Just as Zhao Shi said, the main fish to catch there are sea bass or threadfin, but the key point is that we have been there many times and have already caught quite a few sea bass weighing 20 or 30 pounds, or even larger threadfin.

To put it bluntly, they were already tired of fishing, not to mention that Zhao Dahai was catching sea bass or threadfin bream one after another on his speedboat, which was purely physical labor.

I've fished too much, and it's been too easy; there's no surprise at all.

"Is there any need to say that? After a heavy rain, the seawater in places like artificial islands and reefs won't immediately return to normal, especially if it rains heavily; the seawater on the entire surface will be very fresh."

"Don't be fooled by the fact that those large groupers are all located at a depth of about 100 meters on the seabed; they have an impact, a very significant one."

"The foamy area around the islands and reefs is quite different. Once the water flows, there is a high chance that schools of sea bass and threadfin bream will appear, and there is a great chance that they will be very large schools."

"The bite is extremely fierce."

"How could Zhao Dahai possibly let go of such an opportunity? How could he possibly miss such a chance to make money?"

Zhao Shi was very clear about what Zhao Dahai was planning to do next.

After a heavy rain, once the tide rises in the foamy area of ​​the island reef, there are a lot of fish, and they are very likely to be very big fish.

Gao Zhicheng, Wu Weimin, and Lin Zuhua all nodded.

After the heavy rain, it will definitely be possible to catch fish in places like artificial islands and reefs, but it may not be that easy.

If the tides and currents are good in the island and reef foam area, it is definitely a place or opportunity to catch a lot of big sea bass or threadfin bream.

The difference between Zhao Dahai and others like him is that he needs to catch as many fish as possible and find ways to make more money.

It's really impossible to miss such a great opportunity.

"If that's really the case, should we go fishing at sea with Zhao Dahai's speedboat?"

Wu Weimin glanced at Gao Zhicheng and Lin Zuhua beside him with a slight headache.

Gao Zhicheng and Lin Zuhua hesitated.

The island and reef foam area is known for its large sea bass and bighead carp, but we've caught so many that we don't really want to remove them. Going there and reeling in fish is exhausting, as it can cause hand cramps.

However, if you don't go, one reason is that you might not be able to catch big grouper on the big fishing boats. But more importantly, no one can say for sure whether super big sea bass, especially super big threadfin, will appear in the island and reef foam area after heavy rain.

If we don't go, and if Zhao Dahai, Zhong Shizhu, Liu Bin, and Lei Dayou's speedboat comes back with a super-sized sea bass or a large threadfin, we'll definitely regret it.

"This is really a difficult decision to make!"

Gao Zhicheng pondered for a long time, but still couldn't make up his mind whether or not to go.
