Reborn in the Millennium: Building a Fortune from Fishing

Chapter 232

"Hey, Gu Qiang, how are you doing lately?"

We chatted about family matters first. I didn't interact with this guy very often because he didn't go fishing in town.

When he learned that Qin Dahe was going to lead a team to go fishing in the city, he actually became interested.

After carefully inquiring about the itinerary, he immediately agreed.

"My station has recently expanded, and another person has come. I just happen to be idle." He chuckled. His unit is purely for retirement and is even more leisurely than the grain station.

"Have you confirmed that everything is okay while you're away from work?" he asked worriedly.

"It's just a seven-acre water pumping station. It would be a waste to use one of me." Gu Qiang curled his lips, quite self-aware.

This place was almost set up just to accommodate a few of them. Once my dad went in, no one would blame him even if he made a mistake while staying there.

"Okay, then I'll count you in. It'll take about six or seven days. I'll let you know when the time is."

"Okay, it's a deal. Just tell me what fishing gear you want to bring, and I'll have it all."

"No, I'll take care of everything."

After hanging up the phone, Qin Dahe smiled lightly.

Almost none of these fishermen are here for the money; they all come to catch big fish. Gu Qiang didn't even ask about their salary.

Now that there were eight of them, he felt relieved.

He can get a 10% commission, and the father and son can also go fishing. It should be no problem to make 10,000 or 20,000 yuan in one trip.

He has no interest in starting a business to earn tens or even hundreds of millions, but he is happy to make a few hundred dollars by fishing. Their pursuits are different.

"Brother, are we going out fishing?" The little girl buried her head in his arms.

"Well, let's go to the city for some fun." He gently stroked the girl's hair and wanted to light another cigarette but held back.

"Oh, then remember to bring me some delicious food, especially mandarin fish."

"I have another one at home. I'll stew it for you tomorrow. I'll go to the sluice gate to get some more before I leave." The little girl chuckled. She was really greedy.

"Yeah, I also want Chinese croaker. Tell mom to put some meatballs in the braised Chinese croaker. It will be delicious." She said with her mouth watering.

"Let it go, I'll let you go."

The sky is big, the earth is big, but his wife is the most important. Let alone meatballs, even knife fish would require him to go to Scar to place an order.

The two of them were getting close to each other, and just as they were about to go into the house, the phone rang again.

It's almost nine o'clock now, why is someone still calling?

"Hello, I'm Qin Dahe."

"Mr. Wang, if you have any problems, just tell me and I will definitely do it for you if I can." It turned out to be the fisherman Mr. Wang, who was driving a car.

"I heard Xiao Yan and the others say that you're recruiting anglers to go to the city to catch big fish?"

"Well, but it will take about seven days, and it will be very hard." He was a little worried that this guy might want to come along.

"Count me in. I've just finished working on the gas station in Hualong, so I'll be idle for at least two months."

Qin Dahe: “.”

The news spread so fast. It had only been a short time since I made the call, but Mr. Wang already knew about it. Did they install surveillance on each other?
"Mr. Wang, I have to tell you that if you go, you must take care of the things at home and you can't quit." He was too lazy to even talk about the salary. He guessed that even if he did, the other party would just treat him as nonsense.

"Okay, tell me the details about fishing and what fishing gear to bring. I have everything," he said proudly.

Qin Dahe repeated what he had said before, and this time there was one more thing.

What he didn't expect was that he underestimated the obsession of these fishermen.

The next day was the Dragon Boat Festival. Although it was a holiday, my eldest sister and her family did not come over.

The father and son went to collect the nets early in the morning, and the water level had risen by at least one meter.

"Ce, the water level has risen so much?"

"This is just a small amount. The water level was really scary when it rose two years ago."

Qin Dahe: “.”

Nonsense, that was a once-in-a-century flood, it must have been scary.

Fortunately, the reserved line is quite long, and it is very comfortable that no one steals the net.

Thirty shrimp cages caught ten kilograms of shrimp, which was a lot, and there were also two white eels.

These things together can make four or five hundred yuan.

"Dad, go to the street and exchange it. I want to help the kid with work."

"Yeah." The old man curled his lips as he took the red Nanjing cigarette handed over by his son.

It’s so damn luxurious. I just upgraded to Sheng Tang, and my son is drawing Red Nanjing.

At eight o'clock, everyone gathered around Hanwaer to help with the work.

But starting from nine o'clock in the morning, the phone rang every once in a while. It seemed that those fishermen had left their contact information with each other, and they called one after another to ask about the procedures for going to the city.

Qin Dahe really didn't want to arrange anyone, so he could only reject them one by one.

He was so confused that he didn't know whether to laugh or cry. He didn't do much work in the morning.

At noon, a group of people had lunch at his house, and Hanwaer couldn't cook.

At the dinner table, everyone was still discussing going to the loach nest to fish.

"Dad, are you still going to take care of that screw nest of yours?"

"Let's keep it. Anyway, we still have a few days before departure. I'll go fishing if I have time." The old man said with a smile, "This nest might even produce a hundred-jin herring. After all, we are under the watchful eyes of the Dragon King."

Qin Dahe nodded. This place is the fishway. It is not certain that there will be a giant bluefish weighing 100 kilograms, but it is still possible to catch a big bluefish.

"You go talk to Sixth Uncle. Anyway, if nothing goes wrong, you will get a thousand yuan." "Okay, I'll go there after dinner." He nodded. The important business must not be delayed.

"Erhu, can you take your green dog out?"

When going on a long trip, you must bring a dog. Scar rented a yard in the countryside for them to live in. He would feel uneasy without the two dogs as they were unfamiliar with the place.

"Yes, when my father went to Hexian County on business, Daniu stayed with him for a week and was very well behaved."

"That's good. Bring the fried noodles too. It should be enough for the two dogs."

When Chao Mian heard someone calling it, it looked up in confusion, thinking that it was time for dinner.

Seeing that no one paid attention to it, it hid under the table again, waiting to be the first to grab the bone when it was thrown.

After dinner, Tiedan went back to work. Hanwaer's yard had already been built in the morning, and all that was left was some finishing work, so they didn't need to help.

Qin Dahe also followed over. The prefabricated panels here were about to be erected, and the workload was very heavy.

These days he has been running around working in both places. Among the brothers, the one who builds the house must get it.

Tiedan and Hanwaer are fine, but Erhu’s house construction next year will be a big project.

Although he made some money from fishing for silver carp and bighead carp and reselling the fish in May and June, he still hadn't saved enough money. He could only wait and see how the flower-making factory would perform this year.

When we got to Tiedan, he put on work gloves and started to lift the prefabricated boards. They will be poured tomorrow, and Hanwaer will also lay the beams tomorrow.

Qin Dahe prepared two sets of firecrackers, which were enough to make a thousand explosions on each side.

The edges of the prefabricated panels were very sharp, and Qin Dahe accidentally cut a big hole in his gloves, and his hand was also slightly scratched.

Fortunately, it was not a big problem, so I changed into a pair of gloves and continued.

"Tiedan, this bungalow is not as good as a tiled house. It's so hot in the summer."

"There's no other way. I need a place to dry things. My father built it specially for me." He said with a wry smile.

The other three friends actually wanted to have a tiled house with a attic like Qin Dahe's, which looks very fashionable.

But the cost is too high and it is not as stylish as a building.

"Tsk, you'll know in the summer." It's really hot and stuffy in the bungalow in the summer.

A few people sat down and started to smoke and take a break. Tiedan's family brought over a big pot of mung bean soup for everyone to share.

When building a house in summer, mung bean soup is a must.

After finishing a cigarette, everyone continued to work, and the summer sun was still shining mercilessly on people.

Even with a straw hat on, sweat still flowed down my neck.

We didn't take a break until five o'clock. Everything was ready and we were just waiting to pour the concrete again.

"Would you like to go take a bath in Yuxi River?"

"Walk."

"Erhu, call Brother Niu up."

"Haha, sure."

The three friends were too tired to eat, so they went to the Yuxi River to take a refreshing bath.

When passing by the door of the house, Qin Dahe whistled, and Chaomian and Black Bear followed him out.

The three men and three dogs went straight to the county road, and then went down the path where his family usually set up their nets.

With the continuous "plop" sound, they entered the water one after another.

There were also people swimming at the water pump station near Liming Supermarket, and they shouted. They were all from the village opposite.

The water here is relatively shallow, so swimming is relatively safe.

After taking a dip in the water, all the fatigue of the day seemed to be relieved.

No matter how hard you dive, you'll be far away when you come out of the water.

Qin Dahe felt something under his feet and picked it up with his toes. When he looked at it, it turned out to be an aluminum pot lid.

Just throw it on the shore and take it back and sell it as junk for a few cents.

"Cool, I still have to swim in the summer."

"That's right, the water on this side of the Yuxi River is really clean." Erhu took a sip, rinsed his mouth, and then spit it out.

"It's so dirty, get away from here." Tiedan looked at him with disdain and slipped away.

Erhu laughed heartily and followed happily.

Although there are crocodiles here, no one takes it seriously. If it weren't illegal, these alligators would have turned into leather shoes long ago.

There is a large upside-down vat under the water jump, which was buried specially so that you can stand on it to rest your feet while swimming.

At this time, Qin Dahe sat on it holding his breath, opened his eyes and looked around.

The visibility here is quite high, the water quality is good, the bottom is still sandy, and some shells buried in the ground can be seen clearly.

There was a yellow light not far away. He was delighted and went over to pick it up. It turned out to be a copper handle, which was worth a few dollars. He threw it onto the shore.

When they were young, they liked to pick up things in the river. Copper, iron, and aluminum were all very valuable, enough to exchange for some candy or something.

"Why are you still picking up junk?" Erhu said speechlessly.

"Just picking it up for fun." He chuckled and sat down again.

Just as he was about to move to another place to pick it up, a dark shadow came over and scared him, and he quickly came out of the water.

"Chow Mein, go away, I'm not drowning." He pushed him away. It turned out that Chao Mian saw him diving and came to save him.

Now, because of the good food, the two little dogs have grown into young and strong dogs. They are very strong and their legs can move very fast.
