Going back to the old days of hunting at sea

Chapter 928 Are You Going to Catch a Whale?

"Brother Chen Hui, are you really planning to catch a 100-jin fish?"

"Can this really be found? Even if we find it, we can't catch it back, right?"

An Wenjing asked in surprise.

The goods that He Juanjuan wanted this time were reasonable but a little outrageous.

She had almost forgotten about it, but she didn't expect Chen Hui to still remember it and was ready to go.

"Not only because of this, this trip is to prepare seafood for the New Year."

"Fish, shrimp, conch, oysters, whatever you can catch, lots of it."

"One piece of oxygen supply equipment is not enough."

"If we are lucky enough to catch a big fish, it will be even less than enough."

Chen Hui finished eating.

He explained, put down his bowl and chopsticks, and went home to get the tools he would need for going out to sea.

Close all the doors and windows in your home.

He rode a motorcycle to Lin Jiao's house, picked up An Wenjing and went to Dasa Village together.

The two people did not go directly to Wu Shuisheng's house.

I went to the pier first.

Chen Hui found the store where Wu Shuisheng had taken him to buy the generator and asked if they had an extra-large water tank that could hold 200 kilograms of fish and water.

"Nephew Shuisheng, are you going out to sea to catch whales?"

The owner of the fish and sundry supplies store was dumbfounded when he heard this request.

"Isn't this thing available for sale?" Chen Hui asked.

"If a fishing boat catches a fish that is valuable and still alive, won't they raise it?"

An Wenjing was also somewhat puzzled by her boss's reaction.

"That's true, but who can catch a hundred or two hundred kilograms of fish on a regular basis?"

"Such a large water tank takes up space and may not be used twice in ten years of going out to sea."

"We don't have this size in stock. If you want, you can order it. I'll go see if we have it next time."

The boss waved his hand and said.

"Okay, I'll order one. Boss, please give me an order."

Chen Hui said as he was about to take out the money.

The owner of the fish and sundry goods store stopped him and said, "Don't rush to pay. We may not know whether there is any."

"Okay, then if you have one, bring it back and ask my uncle for money."

Chen Hui gave some instructions and left with An Wenjing.

As I walked, I wondered where I could get a large water tank.

"Chen Hui, Wen Jing!"

Wu Shuisheng bought two large bags of things and came out of the grocery store at the dock.

"Uncle, are you here to buy things for tomorrow's voyage?"

Chen Hui strode over and picked up a bag, "It's so heavy! What's so heavy?"

"Last time you didn't go, we ate plain pancakes with boiled water for two days."

"This time they told me to buy more things to bring with me."

Wu Shuisheng smiled and asked Chen Hui why he was strolling around the dock instead of going home directly.

“I want to buy a water tank.”

Chen Hui told him about the order He Juanjuan wanted and about his trip to the fish and sundry supplies store to buy things.

Wu Shuisheng waved his hand and said casually, "Follow me."

Chen Hui was delighted and quickly took An Wenjing's hand and followed.

Wu Shuisheng took them to Li Jiankang's purchasing point and borrowed an extra-large water tank.

Although it still didn't reach Chen Hui's ideal size.

But it is still much larger than the 50K water tank on a fishing boat, and is more than enough to raise kilograms of fish.

When he saw the water tank, Wu Shuisheng suddenly remembered something.

"Chen Hui, look at this, if you turn it upside down, it can be used as a long table."

"Isn't this much more useful than that small water tank?"

Wu Shuisheng pointed at the oversized water tank and imagined it being filled with food.

"No, it's a bit dirty down there!"

"Jiankang, give me the brush. Chen Hui, go get me a bucket of water."

As Wu Shuisheng spoke, he turned the water tank over and placed it on the ground.

He carefully brushed the bottom and edges of the water tank with the brush handed to him by Li Jiankang. He took the water handed to him by Chen Hui and splashed it, nodding with satisfaction.

"Uncle, we are going to the sea, not on a spring outing." Chen Hui was a little helpless.

"You have to make money, work, and live a better life, right?"

"I haven't eaten your cooking for a long time. Recently, your aunt's cooking has been sloppy."

Speaking of this, Wu Shuisheng couldn't help but sigh.

"Auntie, this is also to make money."

"If she earns a little more, you can go out to sea less often. Your body can't handle going out to sea when you're older," Chen Hui comforted him.

Wu Shuisheng nodded and said, "Your aunt said the same thing."

Chen Hui and Wu Shuisheng first moved the large water tank onto the fishing boat.

Then the oxygenator and generator from Chen Hui's own fishing boat, as well as the oxygenator from Wu Shuisheng's home, were moved to Wu Guang's fishing boat.

When everything was done, it was already dark.

Before the Chinese New Year, more than a hundred sets of four-piece suits had to be completed and sent out.

Chen Huihong has been in the workshop every day recently.

Swish, swish, swish, swish! The sewing machine is about to produce sparks.

Chen Hui and An Wenjing came today.

She took a rare day off early and cooked dinner.

Wu Shuisheng saw the four dishes and one soup on the table and lamented loudly, "Today is finally not noodles, vermicelli and porridge."

"Is it not enough to have noodles, vermicelli and porridge?"

"I'll go back to Chenjia Village some other day and get you some sweet potato rice."

"After eating this for ten days or half a month, you will realize that noodles, vermicelli and porridge are a heavenly life."

Chen Huihong talked and laughed as she brought over two bowls of rice.

Wu Shuisheng stopped talking and picked up a piece of dried lettuce from the bowl with chopsticks and ate it.

Had dinner.

Chen Huihong returned to the workshop and continued to operate the sewing machine.

Chen Hui and An Wenjing cleaned up the dishes and squeezed into the room with Wu Shuisheng to watch TV.

The commercial just ended and the plot is about to begin.

Wu Shuisheng suddenly pointed at Chen Hui and said seriously, "Don't talk later!"

"Uncle, is the plot now developing in the direction that Brother Chen Hui said?" An Wenjing asked with a smile.

"Hey!"

Wu Shuisheng sighed.

I want to quit the show but I can't bear to. It makes me anxious just thinking about it.

Chen Hui was smart enough to just nod without saying anything.

After watching two episodes of TV, Chen Huihong urged them to go to bed.

"Aunt, you should go to bed too. It's getting late."

"We're going out to sea tomorrow, and you'll definitely get up early too," Chen Hui advised.

"Got it, go quickly."

"There's only one edge left of that set. I'll go after I lock it up."

Chen Huihong said this, waving her hand to urge Chen Hui to take An Wenjing upstairs.

I went back to the workshop and worked for a while.

It was still dark the next day.

She got up first, prepared breakfast, and woke up Chen Hui and Wu Shuisheng.

After having breakfast together, I took them to the dock with a flashlight.

Wu Guang and the others saw it and joked about it as usual.

Then they got on board.

"Aunt, please go back soon. The wind is so cold."

As Chen Hui spoke, he pressed Chen Huihong's shoulders and turned her around.

"Got it, got it, I'll leave now."

"If the wind is strong at sea, you can hide in the cabin and come out when you get to the destination."

Chen Huihong walked forward a few steps, then turned back and waved at them.

Only after seeing the fishing boats leave the port did they turn around and go home.
