Reborn in the Millennium: Building a Fortune from Fishing

Chapter 247

"Do you want to catch big black carp?" Qin Dahe became interested.

"Can you fish?"

"Yes," he said with a smile, "the diet of black carp is very diverse. They also eat mandarin fish and sea bass. If you want to catch a big fish, just hook the sea bass."

I definitely don't want to hook the mandarin fish, because if I don't catch it, I will lose money.

"Okay, let's do it this way. I'll try it." Erhu excitedly began to take the sea bass out of the fish basket.

“How do I hook it?”

"Hang it on the mouth, it won't run away easily, and it's also convenient to hook the black carp's mouth, but it's best to use three-hook." He also brought a few three-hooks, specially prepared for fighting giants.

"I'll try."

Qin Dahe didn't want to waste time fishing for big alligator. He could earn more by catching a few small alligators. Anyway, he had already caught a big one this time.

He leisurely hooked a small loach and threw it out, and it directly made a connection, and the loach was swallowed as soon as it entered the water.

"A black fish actually came. We're lucky." Seeing that the black fish was not big, it flew up directly.

After removing the hook, if you find that the loach is not dead, you can continue to throw it away, so there is no waste at all.

There are not many black carps in the Yangtze River, but the fishing spot is close to the mouth of the Zhang River, so it is normal for some black carps to be attracted there, and they come every few days.

"Fire!" Erhu shouted excitedly, the fishing line in his hand cutting through the water back and forth.

"Giant?"

"No, it should be about 20 to 30 kilograms. It doesn't feel as oppressive as the black carp yesterday." He said regretfully.

The sea bass we caught only weighs a little over a pound. Don’t those giant alligators look down on it?
"Then just force yourself to float up. Don't waste time. You need to make money."

"I know. It will be ready soon."

Erhu chuckled and started pulling it out directly. It was not worth it to cut it. It was not worth wasting half an hour for a 30-jin black carp.

Two minutes later, Silly Kid helped to violently scoop up the fish. This might be the most embarrassing fish weighing 20 to 30 kilograms.

Erhu also took out the small sea bass from the black carp's mouth, but unfortunately, it had been bitten and could only be cooked as a snack for the dog.

It was not until five o'clock that the fish such as black carp and mandarin fish started to bite more.

At this time, Qin's father and Mr. Wang came together to deliver food.

"Dahe, how are they? They're all mullet, right?"

"Fortunately, although the main dish is black carp, there are also some whitebait." Qin Dahe took the food and shared it with everyone.

"I'll call someone to come and get the fish later, otherwise it will be troublesome if it dies in the middle of the night."

Because there was less cargo at noon today, we didn’t ask anyone to pick up the goods.

Mr. Wang tied a fishing line and sat on the T-tail to start fishing for bigmouth catfish.

"Brother Wang, are you so hardworking?"

"Hey, more than a thousand a day. Unless I get a big job, I can't earn that much. I have to work harder." Mr. Wang smiled.

After sleeping for three or four hours in the afternoon, I didn’t want to sleep anymore, so I came here to fish for two hours before going back.

The income from fishing is indeed high. If they make their own bait, wouldn’t they make a fortune?

"Daha, I want to discuss something with you." Mr. Wang thought about it and decided that he and others could do it.

Without taking a commission, it is possible for a single person to earn over 10,000 yuan a day. If eight people work together, they can make a million in ten days. This business is amazing.

He shared his ideas with Qin Dahe.

"Brother Wang, don't think that we catch a lot. This is because of the geographical location. There are so many predatory fish because of the confluence of three water systems. You won't catch so many fish if you only fish by the Yangtze River." He explained with a smile.

Scar spent a lot of effort on this den. The Longwo Lake, Zhang River and Yangtze River are the confluence of three water systems, and there are all kinds of predatory fish, which is why there are so many fish.

And they cannot be trawled, probably because the fish market is in the off-season, there are fewer trawlers around, and at most there are some small nets, which cannot affect their loach fishing nests.

"There's definitely a place like this in our county. If you put in some effort, you can find it. Then you can do the work and make them stop fishing for a few days. Then there's still hope."

After listening to it, Mr. Wang felt that it was doable.

"Okay, I'll go ask around and find a place where you can fish for ten days or half a month." He said excitedly.

"Ten days or half a month won't do. The gathering of loach nests is time-sensitive. Unless you make nests every day, those predatory fish will disperse to the surrounding areas and entrench themselves." Qin Dahe said with a wry smile.

Unless there is enough food, even the Yangtze River cannot allow the mandarin fish to stay in one place for a long time.

However, after having tasted the sweetness of the nest, they will find a comfortable place nearby to gather and nest, so it is not so easy to catch them.

"Then just dig for loach nests every day. Loach is only worth six or seven yuan this year." Mr. Wang said indifferently.

"It's up to you. If you really find a place to call us, you can have the same conditions as Scar."

Qin Dahe stopped nagging as his persuasion had not yet convinced the other party to change his mind.

The resources of a region are limited, even the Yangtze River.

Three water veins converge, and fishing for six or seven days is almost the limit. If you want to continue fishing, you have to make a nest and wait for the passing fish from afar to be attracted by the loaches.

Wait until this group of fish gathers together again before you can continue pulling.

The process is full of uncontrollable risks. For example, if the local fishermen become jealous and bring people over to forcibly drag two nets, can you still get on the boat and cause trouble?

Scar is pretty awesome. They have so much cargo but no fishermen come to inquire about it.

Normally, when there are a lot of fish in a river, fishermen will swarm over there to drag their nets. At this time, no one cares who owns the territory.

So Qin Dahe didn't care about being charged 70% of the fish catch, because people with ability deserve to make money.

Qin's father and Mr. Wang were still fishing here until 7 o'clock, and they reluctantly went back home when it was almost dark. In the evening, there were many catfish and black bass, and there were also some sea bass. The fishing was getting more active again, which was very exciting.

It was half past seven when Ah Hu arrived in his boat.

"I was delayed and arrived late." Ah Hu started smoking as soon as he got ashore.

You wouldn’t know if you didn’t calculate it carefully. But if you calculate it carefully, your dad has made a lot of money during this period, so you have to be polite to Qin Dahe and the others.

Not only is the profit 70%, but they can also sell the fish at a higher price. Qin Dahe and his team make 10,000 yuan, and Scar's gross profit can reach 40,000 yuan. It's pretty awesome.

Qin Dahe lit a cigarette and took a break. His arm started to hurt again and the anti-inflammatory medicine didn't work.

The five people were all young people. They were not in a hurry to collect the fish at the moment. They were sitting on the shore and chatting lively.

"The fish bite is better at night than during the day. During the day, it's all croaker, and I'm tired of catching fish."

"There are too many fish." Even the silly kids started to complain.

I was on duty for four hours at noon and caught 100 kilograms of alligator and 20 kilograms of other fish. It's outrageous.

"There's no other way. You'll have to work harder at night." Ah Hu said politely.

He had to rely on these people to help him buy his house in Xinjiekou.

After finishing the cigarettes, everyone started weighing the fish.

The main fish is the black carp, which can be caught even at night, and the second is the catfish.

There are so many bigmouth catfish in this area. Qin Dahe caught more than 40 kilograms of them in the past two hours in the evening.

While weighing the fish, Qin Dahe carefully kept track of everyone's accounts.

From five in the morning until now, excluding a four-hour break, I have caught more than a thousand kilograms of fish in ten hours.

Qin Dahe calculated that the unit price was at most six yuan because there were so many black carp.

The unit price at night can reach more than ten yuan, and catfish and black carp are very valuable.

After Ah Hu left, Hanwaer and the others immediately came over to see how much money was shown on their bills, and they all smiled happily.

It's another day of making money, and then I start fishing again with full energy.

At nine o'clock, Uncle Six and Brother Yan came over.

"Big river."

"Why are you here so early today?" Qin Dahe looked at the two of them. They were smart. If they fished a little longer in the evening, they could make money.

"Well, it's enough to sleep from lunch to seven in the evening." He chuckled.

Fish bites are more valuable at night, so you have to fish at night.

Brother Yan thought the same way. If he could earn more money, he would be able to spend more generously when he returned.

How can five hundred yuan a month be enough? Now there is an additional expense: buying bait for silver carp and bighead carp.

It was quite lively with six people fishing in the wild. Everyone was fishing along the edge, fishing for the kind of bigmouth catfish or black carp weighing five or six kilograms, which were very efficient when flown.

They flew up one after another, just like smoking little white strips.

The temperature at night is just right, neither too cold nor too hot, much cooler than during the day.

"Dahe, I will fish until three o'clock in the evening and go back." Tiedan said.

"Okay, you guys go fish a little longer tonight and make some money. I just got back and need to fill up the gas."

"Damn, you're the only one with a car, and you didn't even tell us." Erhu said depressedly.

They only found out today that Qin Dahe was going to buy a car. He didn't say anything and they were a little angry at the time.

It's like building a house without informing them.

"It's the same as ignorance. I will definitely inform you next time I change the car." Qin Dahe said embarrassedly.

He coaxed a few of them for a long time in the afternoon. Who would have thought that buying a car now requires treating people to a meal.

"Change car?"

"Yeah, I make money fast, and I'll buy a new one when I have money."

"Ce, awesome."

Everyone present was speechless. This guy was really crazy.

But when I think about how good he is at making money, I can only nod my head reluctantly. He has the capital to be so arrogant.

After returning from school, I have never stopped making money. Now I don’t even do welding.

"Hehe, let's earn more this time. Let's all work hard and buy a car when we go back." Qin Dahe lit a cigarette happily.

My hands hurt right now and I can’t control the fish with one hand, so I have to put the rod down.

From nine to ten o'clock, I caught sixty kilograms of fish.
That means one pound of fish per minute, and they are all catfish and black carp, mixed in with a mandarin fish.

These sixty kilograms of fish are worth almost a thousand pounds, and no one would believe it if I told them.

Erhu and his friends caught fewer fish, but the fish bite was not bad.

I just don't know how long this fishing situation can last.

Look at him catching a fish weighing eight or nine kilograms directly, and changing rods when the tip of the rod breaks without any delay. It's really enviable.

"The fish are biting so well, why did you stop to smoke?" Brother Yan asked.

"Just a few small fish, don't worry about it." He said proudly.
