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

Chapter 1635 Getting ready to go back!

"Are there any other large mackerel in the sea at this time of year?"

As Wu Weimin spoke, he pointed to the reflux zone not far away.

There are definitely no more mackerel this big one that Zhao Dahai just caught; you can tell at a glance that it was the leader of the entire school of mackerel.

Now we need to see if we can catch a smaller one, say, one weighing 200 pounds or a little over 200 pounds.

It's already quite good to catch one that big, but it's really hard to say now.

"It's possible that it could be that big, but no one can really guarantee that."

Zhao Dahai thought for a moment, nodded, but then immediately shook his head.

"One is a school of mackerel, with some large fish and some smaller fish."

“The fish you just caught weighed around 100 pounds or more.”

"Judging from this large mackerel weighing over 300 pounds, the ones weighing over 100 pounds just now were all relatively small fish in the school."

"Now there is a real chance to catch a large mackerel weighing around 200 pounds or even a little over 200 pounds!"

Zhao Dahai pondered for a while and felt that there was no major problem. There was definitely a chance, but the key question was whether he could actually catch it.

Upon hearing Zhao Dahai's words, Wu Weimin, Gao Zhicheng, and Lin Zuhua exchanged glances, said nothing more, and immediately picked up their fishing rods to start fishing.

After catching one fish, I didn't want to fish anymore, but now that I see Zhao Dahai has caught another fish, and such a big one at that, I just can't stand it.

There's probably no hope of catching a 300-pound fish, but catching one that weighs over 200 pounds would be very good.

"Zhao Dahai!"

"It's highly unlikely that Mr. Wu and his team could catch a fish weighing 200 pounds, right?"

Shi Guangming carried his water pipe to Zhao Dahai's side.

The head of the entire mackerel has already been caught, so Zhao Dahai is definitely not going to fish anymore.

When Wu Weimin, Lin Zuhua, and Gao Zhicheng saw that Zhao Dahai had caught such a big fish, they became interested again. Their goal was to catch a mackerel weighing more than 200 jin (100 kg), or even close to 300 jin (150 kg).

However, judging from the current situation, this is really unlikely, or rather, extremely difficult.

"Correct!"

"It's not that there's absolutely no chance, but the chances right now are really slim."

"We're just trying to see if we can catch anything."

"If you want to catch a big fish, you really can only try!"

Zhao Dahai spoke the truth.

"what?"

"Why is this?"

Lin Zuhua was a little annoyed when he heard Zhao Dahai's words, but he was more curious about why people like him had opportunities, but not many.

"This mackerel, which is this big, has already been caught, and it is very likely that this fish is the leader of the entire mackerel school."

"A group without a leader."

"That's the situation with the fish right now. If the first fish isn't caught yet, the school of mackerel won't disperse so quickly and will likely stay in this slow-moving area for a longer time."

"If you stay longer, you're more likely to catch a lot of mackerel, and even a larger one."

"The biggest mackerel has already been caught."

"The remaining mackerel will most likely escape, and they will escape very quickly."

"It's not that there's absolutely no chance, but to be honest, the chance is really not that great."

"You have about ten minutes. If you can catch something, great. If not, then don't bother fishing. The chances are really slim."

Zhao Dahai has extensive fishing experience and knows exactly what's going on.

If you can catch a large mackerel weighing around 200 pounds, you can catch it in the next ten minutes or so. If you really can't catch it, then you really can't catch it.

Wu Weimin, Lin Zuhua, and Gao Zhicheng then realized what was going on.

"If we don't catch this big fish, will we have a better chance of catching other big fish?"

Gao Zhicheng was a little curious, so he asked Zhao Dahai while fishing.

Zhao Dahai shook his head.

Logically speaking, it is indeed possible, but in reality, it is almost impossible.

"Why is that? Didn't you just say that when you catch a big mackerel, the leader of the school, the rest of the fish will scatter and escape?"

"If we don't catch the first mackerel, wouldn't the result be the opposite? In other words, we'd have a chance to catch even more big fish?"

Gao Zhicheng couldn't understand it now.

"Mackerel is quite different from other fish."

"It swims very fast and is constantly catching other fish in the sea."

"In other words, mackerel in this sea generally don't stay in one place for long."

"If there's food in a place, I'll definitely stay there for a longer time."

"There are still sea bass in the sea right in front of us, but there are really not many left."

"The schools of mackerel are indeed quite large, but they don't stay in one place for very long."

"If the head of the mackerel is in this spot, it will definitely stay there for a longer time."

"But even if the head of the mackerel is still in the sea, it won't stay there for long. It will definitely continue to swim forward, and it will swim very fast."

Zhao Dahai had been fishing for a long time and had a wealth of experience. He knew very well what the habits of the fish in the sea were like.

If there is a mackerel leader, it will definitely stay longer, but it doesn't necessarily stay very long. The most important thing is whether there is enough food for mackerel in the sea.

However, long before he caught this 300-pound mackerel, most of the sea bass in the sea had already disappeared.

Needless to say, there are definitely still sea bass in the sea at this time of year, but their numbers are certainly not that many.

The school of mackerel will definitely continue swimming forward, continuing to chase the school of sea bass; they can't stay in this place for too long.

Wu Weimin, Gao Zhicheng, and Lin Zuhua finally understood what was going on.

Ten minutes passed in the blink of an eye.

Wu Weimin, Gao Zhicheng, and Lin Zuhua were a little helpless, but there was nothing they could do. Zhao Dahai had just made it very clear that if they couldn't catch any fish within about ten minutes, there was basically no hope.

Wu Weimin, Gao Zhicheng, and Lin Zuhua put away their fishing rods.

"what!"

"Boss Wu!"

"Judging from this, you're not destined to be big fish!" Shi Guangming joked with Wu Weimin, Gao Zhicheng, and Lin Zuhua.

"We really have to admit that we're not destined to be big fish, especially not truly big fish."

Wu Weimin had to admit that it was really true.

When I first caught the big mackerel with Lin Zuhua and Gao Zhicheng, I thought it was the biggest fish we had ever caught.

Unexpectedly, as soon as Zhao Dahai made his move, they were no match for him. Not only did he catch a fish, but he also caught the head of the entire school of mackerel.

The mackerel that Lin Zuhua and Gao Zhicheng caught were quite impressive in front of others, but compared to the fish that Zhao Dahai caught, they were really not impressive at all, and were far inferior.

"What can we do?"

"Such a big fish, it's not something a few of us can hold back!"

Lin Zuhua spoke the truth.

Everyone wants to catch a big fish, and the biggest fish at that, but it really depends on your skill.

Ding Dawen called out to the people on the fishing boat, and the four of them, along with a cart, carried the mackerel, especially the one Zhao Dahai had just caught, weighing over 300 pounds, to the cold storage.

Zhao Dahai, Zhong Shizhu, Liu Bin, and Lei Dayou returned to the driver's seat.

"The weather isn't too good right now, so you guys will go to bed after dinner, right? You're not going out fishing for the time being, are you?"

As Zhao Shi spoke, he pointed to the sea, saying that it seemed the weather was not going to improve.

Zhao Dahai nodded without hesitation.

It's not that I can't go fishing at sea in this kind of weather, but I really have no intention of doing so.

"We caught quite a lot of sea bass and other fish recently."

"Not only did they make money, they made a lot of money."

"If the weather is good, I'll definitely continue fishing, but in the current weather, there's not much need to."

"After we finish eating, we'll go to sleep and sleep as late as we want."

"When we wake up, we'll check the weather. If it's good, we'll go fishing at sea."

Zhao Dahai glanced at Ding Dawen, who had just walked in.

"Brother Da Wen!"

"Is this fishing boat almost full of fish? Should we head back now?"

Zhao Dahai suddenly remembered this matter.

Ding Dawen immediately nodded. The weather hadn't been great these past few days, but Zhao Dahai had already caught a lot of fish much earlier. He had been fishing near the fishing boat for the past two days, and if you add it all up, he really had caught a lot of fish.

The live water tank was almost full of fish.

"Zhao Dahai!"

"The weather is bad right now, so there's really no need to go any further to fish."

"Even if you catch fish, there isn't much room on the fishing boat to keep them."

"It would be better to just get a good night's sleep and wait for the weather to get better so that when you all go out to sea to fish, I can take the big fishing boat back to the fish farm to unload the fish."

When Ding Dawen delivered the mackerel to the cold storage, he took a close look at the live water tank. It wasn't that there was absolutely no space left, but there really wasn't much space left.

If the weather were good, I would already be back at the fish farm unloading the fish by now. But the weather isn't great right now, so unless Zhao Dahai comes back with me, I'll have to wait until the weather gets better before I can go back and unload the fish.

Upon hearing this, Zhao Dahai immediately nodded, thinking that in that case, there was really no need to think about going out to sea to fish.

"Second Grandpa."

"Didn't we already discuss buying another fishing boat?"

"The weather seems to be getting better. Brother Da Wen has gone back. You guys should go back with him and see what to do with that big fishing boat."

"If you and Grandpa Shi think it's okay, then you can just go ahead and buy it."

Zhao Dahai glanced at Zhao Shi and Shi Guangming.

I've already made up my mind to buy a large fishing boat; it's definitely something I have to do.

"You don't need to worry about this!"

"After we got back, Old Shi and I bought a big fishing boat, one that could be used for trawling. Once we bought the boat, we could just sail it out to find Ding Dawen."

"You and Zhong Shizhu can do whatever you want!"

Zhao Shi nodded.

This is very simple. Once Shi Guangming and I get back, we can go and buy a fishing boat.

"That's right!"

"You don't need to worry about this, we'll handle it!"

"If you have money in your pocket and want to buy something, isn't that easy? Why bother with anything else!"

Shi Guangming smiled.

This is no joke. If you don't have money and want to buy something, it's definitely not an easy thing, it can even be a very difficult thing.

Does Zhao Dahai have no money now?
Not just rich, but extremely rich.

If you want to buy a fishing boat, as long as you find one you like and it's worth the price, you can buy it immediately.

It's really not that difficult. If Zhao Shi and I go back, we might be able to sail out here in our big fishing boat to find Ding Dawen by the second or third day at most.

Zhao Dahai smiled and didn't bring it up again.

Second Grandfather Zhao Shi and Shi Guangming are both very experienced, and more importantly, they are now regarded as having status and position by the fishermen in the area.

When it comes to buying fishing boats, no one dares to rip them off, and no one dares to set unreasonable prices.

What I just said is absolutely true. If you have money in your pocket and want to buy a fishing boat, it's a very simple and easy thing to do. You can buy one easily and in a very short time.

After finishing their meal, Zhao Dahai, Zhong Shizhu, Liu Bin, and Lei Dayou rested for a while before heading back to their cabins to sleep.

People who go out to sea, especially fishermen, actually have very little to do. There's not much to say about it; it's either fishing, working to earn money, or sleeping.

"Do we really need to buy another large fishing boat, specifically a trawler?"

Wu Weimin took a sip of fish soup. Zhao Dahai had already told Zhao Shi and Shi Guangming about this matter.

I wasn't unaware of this matter; Zhao Dahai and Zhao Shi had already made up their minds beforehand. However, it seems that they're not just going to buy it, but they're going to buy it right away on this trip back.

"Didn't we just say that we'd buy a fishing boat as soon as we got back, and then we'd meet up with Ding Dawen!"

Shi Guangming smiled and pointed at Ding Dawen.

This is no joke; it's a very important matter.
