Reborn in the Millennium: Building a Fortune from Fishing

Chapter 216 Brother Niu "achieves merit" again

What a pity. I have to wait until my wife gives birth before I can go out. Then I will kill everyone and have enough fun.

The skills and experience of those Chinese fishing kings may be better than his, but in terms of techniques and bait, he, the elite from the short video era, is still slightly better.

After dinner we continued fishing. The fish bite was better today than yesterday, but the situation was the same as yesterday, no big catches.

The largest silver carp weighed more than 20 kilograms and was caught by Uncle Chen.

He was pleasantly surprised when the fish came up. He earned back the money he spent on the bait with just one fish, and he could even brag about it when he got back.

Apart from anything else, it’s okay to hang the fish on a motorcycle and show it off at the intersection.

After dinner until two o'clock, the fish were biting pretty well. Qin Dahe even caught a silver carp weighing 27 or 28 kilograms. It was finally a great experience.

Although silver carp is cheap, it is very strong and it is very enjoyable to catch it.

When we stop fishing, everyone stops together. At this time, we hang the bait on the rack, light a cigarette and watch.

The four friends were discussing fishing for big bluefish again.

Uncle Chen was speechless at the moment, so he ran over and started talking.

"How many kilograms of herring do you want to get?" he asked in disbelief.

"Two hundred kilograms." Erhu said confidently. As long as Qin Dahe said he could get it, they would believe it.

"Such a big fish, we don't have it here?"

"How come there are no more? Dahe's dad caught a 133-pound fish. We are so envious."

"Yes."

"Ce, the one who caught the big black carp is Dahe's father. No wonder this kid is so good at fishing." Uncle Zhang said in disbelief.

No wonder Qin Dahe knows everything, it’s a family tradition.

Qin Dahe: “.”

They set up the nest and he suggested the bait. It's just that dad is lucky.

At this time, the sound of a stick falling into the water was heard. Several people turned around and saw that Uncle Chen's fishing rod flew out.

"Oh, my god." Uncle Chen was so anxious that he wanted to take off his clothes to catch fish. Erhu quickly jumped off the fishing platform to stop him.

You are so old, don’t let it sink.

"Grandpa, don't be anxious, look at my dog, Danniu." He comforted him and turned around to pat the big blue dog.

"Daniu, drag that back."

"Wang Wang Wang!"

Brother Niu was stunned at first, but when he saw the direction his owner was pointing, he jumped into the water with a "splash".

Qin Dahe often calls Niu Brother, and he is really reliable at critical moments.

The water on this side of the sluice was too deep due to years of erosion. Even Qin Dahe and the others were scared to go in, but Gou Zi went into the water without hesitation.

They usually took a bath in the diving area outside his house. It was only about 1.67 meters away from the shore, five meters away, which was enough for them to stand.

Seeing Qinggou struggling to pull the fishing rod back, almost feeling powerless, Erhu became anxious.

Don't drag your dog into it just to pull the fishing rod.

Fortunately, Brother Niu was very smart. He dragged the rod along the current and finally reached the shore. This is a method that most people would not think of.

Uncle Chen grabbed the rod excitedly. The three hooks were difficult to unhook, and the fish was still there.

"Brother Niu, I'll have two foreigners to keep you company tonight." Qin Dahe laughed heartily. He still felt relaxed with Brother Niu.

When fishing for silver carp and bighead carp, people usually don't use a handline. Once a fish weighing 20 or 30 kilograms comes, they can't hold it and have to dive into the water. It is very inconvenient to use a handline. He caught the silver carp weighing more than 20 kilograms only after he had dived into the water.

With Brother Niu around, I don’t have to worry about someone suddenly showing up to drag me when I’m smoking or peeing.

The fish that Uncle Chen caught was a 15-jin silver carp, which was very powerful. Brother Niu was almost caught by it just now, and it just came up.

"This dog is really good." Looking at the wet big blue dog, the old man sighed in his heart, "Will you bring it back tomorrow?"

"Bring it here, what's the matter?"

"I'll bring it a big chicken drumstick tomorrow as a thank you, haha."

"That's fine." Qin Dahe was also happy and looked at Erhu: "Don't forget the two foreign girls tonight."

"I know. The one in Weimin's family seems to be pregnant. We also have a big white lion. Let's make do with it for now."

The five of them burst into laughter.

"Dahe, do you think I should change lanes? This 15+10 player has already cut a pair today."

"If you want to change it, just change it. We still have large quantities here at the gate. We bought quite a few last year." After a pause, Qin Dahe continued: "But the thick wire will block the mouth. You can choose the wire yourself according to your resources."

Qin Dahe directly sent over a pair of main line sets, both of which were 7.2 meters long and universal.

I continued to cast the rod, but unfortunately, the bites stopped and I didn’t catch any more. It was really fucked up.

Uncle Chen over there is still considering changing the line set. He cut a big one this morning and caught another big one, which is pretty good.

"Grandpa, how much did you sell the fish for yesterday?"

"160."

"How could that be? I see you catch a lot." Qin Dahe said in confusion.

"I just exchanged it with others. I don't have time to sell fish. If my old friends see it, I might say something about it." Uncle Chen said with a smile. He is not after money. He just wants to make back his investment.

"What price did you pay?"

"Silver carp, two dollars, bighead carp, four dollars and a half."

Strategy, such a low price.

"Then don't bother, just give it to me directly. I'll give you an extra fifty cents for the silver carp. I'm too lazy to carry it back."

Silver carp is sold to Scar Ye for eight yuan, and bighead carp is sold to Brother Qiang for two and eighty or three yuan, so you can make some money from the difference.

When Uncle Chen heard this, his eyes lit up. This was convenient. He could get back the money he spent on bait in the morning.

"But I won't sell my big silver carp. I'll take it back for my family to eat." He was thinking that since he hadn't shown off such a big fish yet, he couldn't sell it.

"Haha, okay, then you can run around the town twice." Qin Dahe knew what the old man was thinking as soon as he heard it. All fishermen have this mentality.

When the old man caught the big black carp, it was raining so hard that he was soaked all over, but he still showed off for a long time in Limin Supermarket.

So adult male psychology is child psychology. No matter how old they are, they are just like children.

Qin Dahe fished until 4:30 in the evening before he finally caught a fish weighing more than seven kilograms.

Seeing that Uncle Chen was about to pack up his stall, he bought the fish from Uncle Chen first.

Grandpa's fish here, besides silver carp, is only 50 kilograms, which is just average. It cost him 170 yuan.

Because I didn't bring a scale, I made a rough estimate. Neither side was a lazy person.

The money was placed in the common account of the four friends, and the difference was not much.

"You guys are not fishing so early?"

"My wife is almost off work. I'm going to pick someone up and will come back later," Qin Dahe explained. "She's pregnant with twins, so I have to be careful."

"Twins, what a blessing." Thinking of his own son who couldn't even fart even after being beaten with three sticks, he was really envious.

Look at this kid, he can earn money, has a wife and children, and his interpersonal skills are impeccable.

Erhu and his friends continued fishing, and after they sent the person home, he came back to help clean up.

No one accused him of taking advantage of such a small matter between brothers.

It was only 4:50 when they arrived. Qin Dahe threw down a cigarette and chatted with Grandpa in the security room. He thought about it and decided to collect a piece of fish with Grandpa Chen to give to the security guards tomorrow.

Don’t underestimate the old man in the security room. He is one of the few staff members with a regular job in the grain station. Even the station chief has to fill out the inspection form in his hand honestly.

At five o'clock, his wife came out on her scooter on time. She was surprised to see him and felt very happy.

Qin Dahe greeted everyone and saw that everyone's attitude was good. He knew that Yanyan's canned dried fruits had some effect.

The two rode their scooters back, and Yanyan asked him how his fishing was.

He went all the way home, dropped the person off, and rode his bike back.

When we got there, we were just packing up our things because everyone was hungry.

"How are the fish biting? Have you caught any big ones since I've been there?"

"Just three, so-so." Erhu said disappointedly.

The catch today is worse than yesterday's. There are not many fish after the fishing stopped in the afternoon.

Several large transfer boxes were filled with fish, and including those of Uncle Chen, the number was similar to yesterday.

The group went back and forth several times before they finally moved the things back.

"Dahe, how about we build a fishing platform here? It's too tiring."

"Nonsense. If the front is built, it will be robbed the next day."

There are quite a lot of fishermen here, and people come here every now and then.

Especially since Qin Dahe had caught so many fish recently, he was not surprised at all that it would soon attract people.

Erhu and the others thought about it and agreed. The rule of wild fishing is first come first served, so they had to give up.

Hanwaer drove the car again, and Qin Dahe rode the pedal to go home first.

When the fish were brought home, my mother just glanced at them casually and let them pour the fish themselves.

She was used to her son catching big fish frequently and didn't pay much attention to it.

We started eating after everyone left.

"Daha, let me ask you something." The old man suddenly spoke.

"what's up?"

"Your sixth uncle's nest was robbed. Is there any way to destroy it?"

"Is it still that grass nest?"

"It's that nest. They raise the chickens very well. They ride their bikes a long way there every day to take care of them." Qin's father said angrily.

He also has a share of that nest, but he has been busy farming and selling fish these days, otherwise he would have followed there long ago.

Qin Dahe nodded after hearing this and went to the storage room of the new house to get something out.

"Throw a handful of this into the nest, and even gods would have trouble catching it."

"What is this?" A white pill? My son has a secret weapon, but I haven't seen him use it.

"I prepared these mothballs specially. I can use them in case my nest is stolen." He chuckled.

It is normal for a fisherman to have his nest robbed. If others do not allow him to do so, he cannot swallow this humiliation and can only think of some dirty tricks.

If you throw a handful of mothballs in there, you won’t be able to catch any fish, unless the water is flowing very fast.

"Haha, you still have a solution." Qin's father was overjoyed. With this, they could just build a new nest. Anyway, they couldn't let others get it for free.

"Just keep them in Dawan. They're all locals. If they dare to steal them, just kill them."

The grass nest was too far away, so it was understandable that Qin's father and the others did not dare to take action. However, if they dared to rob the nest near their home, they would have to consider the fighting ability of the three old men.

"Okay, when will you lower the price of your silver carp and bighead carp bait?"

"Sixth Uncle and the others want to buy it?" Qin Dahe put down his job. He didn't expect that Sixth Uncle and the others would be so willing to spend money.

"You make money every day, so they are jealous." They definitely won't buy it at 20 yuan per pound, and Qin Dahe doesn't dare to cheat Qin's father's friends like this.

"Wait a minute. Once the density at the sluice gate drops, I'll sell it for ten yuan a pound."

"Okay." Qin's father also knew that this matter could not be rushed, as the bait only cost a few dollars.

My son makes thousands of yuan every day fishing, so we can’t let it go.

After dinner, the father and son checked the accounts again and separated the money from selling fish and shrimp in the morning.

Part of it was Silly Kid's shrimp money. Their own shrimp money was also one hundred and seventy, and they gave it all to Dad.

There is also the purchase of fishing gear, which Qin Dahe has to pay for himself.

Looking at the purchase list, he was a little speechless. The old man actually did his own black account.

But it looked like it was only worth a few dozen dollars, so he didn't even see it in his lunch box. He just gave it to his dad as a gift.

Qin's father is not as free as him. His wife supports him in everything, so he has to save some private money so that he can take it out directly when encountering some small problems.

The brothers had agreed that there was no rush to divide the money from selling fish. They would just do the accounting every day and give it to Tiedan after he got married in a few days.

In this way, the money went into his small family, but not every family was like Qin's mother and her family, leaving so much money for the young couple.

Generally, old people hold on to their money tightly, most likely to give it to their grandchildren in the future.

After finishing the work, I took a quick shower and returned to the attic leisurely.

It’s so cool. I go fishing every day and my wife is waiting for me when I get home. It’s much better than my previous life.

The young couple had endless things to talk about when they were together, and they could even talk to him about fishing with great interest.

When they are in the mood, they can take off their clothes and roll around together at a glance. It's so fun.

"Brother, this is so much money." The girl held a handful of cash in her hand and counted the money with a smile.

Some of it belongs to the silly kid, and some of it belongs to the four little friends.

"I'll earn more and more, and my life will get better and better."

"Yeah," she nodded. "I got my salary today, 800, which includes some summer allowance for regular employees."

"There are also subsidies for pregnancy, but you need to bring a checkup form to collect it, including prenatal checkups. Bring the receipts tomorrow and they will be reimbursed."

The little girl became happier as she spoke. She thought her job was very lucrative. She had never expected that such an unpopular job at the grain station would have such good benefits.

More than the town clerk.

"Awesome." Qin Dahe admired sincerely. This job has so many benefits.

However, there are only a few regular workers in the entire grain station, so it is understandable that they are paid well.

“What’s the basic salary?”

"About 500, the rest is subsidies, I think there's more during the Dragon Boat Festival."

"That's great. Even if we can distribute some rice and oil, it will be considered a profit." Qin Dahe laughed.

There is still one and a half months before the Dragon Boat Festival. It seems that this kind of vertical unit is responsible for what it distributes, and I guess the things it distributes will be good.

The little girl was not happy about him sending her to work. Anyway, it was close by, so if there was anything, she could just call directly from the workplace.

"Then when you get off work in the evening, you have to be careful when going down the slope from your home." Qin Dahe said worriedly.

"I know, the baby is the most important." The girl said sweetly and innocently: "Will my status decrease after giving birth to a baby?"

　My computer broke down, so sad. I went to the internet cafe and charged 30 yuan to write. Please give me a monthly ticket.
