Reborn in the Millennium: Building a Fortune from Fishing

Chapter 250

"Haha, that's cool. Try fishing with a fish weighing about two kilograms." Qin Dahe put the fish into the fish basket with a smile.

I got six hundred, so happy.

It took him two hours to catch a big catfish, and 600 yuan was not a lot of money. Nowadays, people fish near the edge of the river to catch fish more aggressively.

The trip to the Yangtze River to catch big fish has basically come to an end. If I continue fishing, my hands will be broken.

Sitting at the fishing spot, I took a puff of the cigarette happily, and looked at the kid smoking the four or five kilograms of catfish as if it were a white strip, and I felt very happy.

This time, not only did we have fun fishing, but we also made a lot of money.

This fishing spot is really good, much better than Yuxi River.

They are not as fierce as here at the mouth of the Yuxi River, and their size is not as great as that of the Yangtze River.

After taking the last puff of his cigarette and exhaling the smoke fiercely, he also started smoking Xiaoyu.

At five o'clock, fishing lights began to rise on the riverside, and various small and medium-sized net-casting boats and trawlers appeared on the river.

Scar Uncle drove the boat over. This time he came to collect the catch himself and see how everyone's late-night catch was.

"Dahe, are there a lot of goods today?"

"Haha, it's definitely more than yesterday." Qin Dahe chuckled and followed Erhu and the others to pick up the fish and prepare to weigh them.

A huge scale was placed directly on the dock, and fish guards began to weigh the fish.

"Scar, I caught another big catfish today."

"Great! Did you catch it again?"

"Yeah." He smiled and said, "I caught a big catfish with a small catfish weighing four pounds. Hey."

The small catfish was not taken out directly, and the line was cut, so that the big catfish could still weigh four pounds.

You should know that big catfish is twice as expensive as small catfish. I believe Scar will not say anything even if he knows this, and he will just sell it to others.

The fish were weighed one by one. The kid who caught the most weighed 553 kilograms, which made everyone's jaw drop.

"Damn, the kid is so awesome. I have to take a break after smoking for an hour because my hands hurt so much that I can't stand it." Erhu said with a wry smile.

He weighed only about 380 pounds and was quite tall. Except for Hanwaer, Qin Dahe, and Sixth Uncle, no one else weighed as much as him.

The main problem is the pain in my hands. It is too tiring to pull out a four or five pound fish as if it were a whitebait. Both hands are exhausted from catching the fish.

"Just bear with it. The kid's hands hurt too." Qin Dahe said with a smile.

The silly kid's hands were swollen, so when Qin Dahe went to the Chinese medicine hospital to buy medicine, he bought some extra medicine on purpose. Everyone applied medicated wine every day.

The same goes for Uncle Six. Although he likes fishing, he must prioritize making money if he can.

People nowadays can endure hardships, especially old farmers like Uncle Liu.

The thought of earning several thousand yuan in seven days filled him with energy.

The food, drink, defecation and urination of the whole family and building a new house all cost money.

His family doesn't have much land, so if he wants to make money from his side business, he must work harder.

After the fish were caught, Qin Dahe asked about the situation. The two fishing boats made him feel a little uneasy.

"Don't come to the riverside during the day. It will be difficult to deal with if you attract other people." Scar sighed and explained the situation.

Hearing that they could continue for two more nights, Qin Dahe felt a little regretful that their trip to the Yangtze River had to end so abruptly.

But it was still fun, at least I caught two big fish.

"Scar Uncle, I will save some catfish and mandarin fish when the time comes, and everyone will want to take them back for their families to try." He took the opportunity to say.

The eight fishermen have had a great time recently, catching all the expensive fish, but their families haven't tasted them yet.

"Okay, for the last wave, you can keep some goods for yourselves and there's no need to weigh them." Scar said generously.

You can see with the naked eye that the group of people are tired. Their hands are basically shaking. They are working very hard.

As a boss, it is normal to reward your employees and find another opportunity next time.

He finally realized that Qin Dahe and his gang were incredibly professional.

Because he wanted to make a loach nest, he asked a lot of people for help, but their efficiency was nowhere near comparable to what's happening here.

Other people can only lift three or four hundred kilograms a day, and it depends on luck, but here they can lift more than five hundred kilograms a day.

Then Scar took the initiative to give him 10,000 yuan, which he took with him when he went out this time.

We agreed to settle the payment of 10,000 yuan in two days, and I must not go back on my word.

Qin Dahe smiled and put the money away, then led everyone to pack up their things first, and they would divide the money when they got back.

We saved 30 kilograms of catfish today, which we all pooled together. It’s enough for two meals at noon and dinner, and we can also buy some salted duck.

For eight strong men, thirty kilograms of fish is not enough to eat, and they also have to stir-fry two vegetarian dishes.

That auntie was also very busy. She was busy enough just washing clothes and cooking. Qin Dahe gave her another fifty yesterday.

The group carried their things with great effort, and by the time they got home it was already six o'clock, and everyone was exhausted.

Qin's father was still sleeping. The puppy in the yard started circling around them as soon as he saw them.

After putting the things away, he kicked away the fried noodles that were stepping on his heels.

"It's time to divide the money. One thousand yuan each." He greeted.

It is mainly divided among Mr. Wang and Brother Yan, and everyone else puts the money with him.

Qin Dahe was also worried that it was not safe to carry so much money on him, so he would go to the bank to deposit it after dinner.

Take them all out when you get home.

The fees for withdrawing money from other places are now shockingly high, and the same goes for remittances. It is better to open a savings account temporarily.

"Haha, after we finish fishing, I'll treat you to a bath." Brother Wang happily put the money away. "Meat or vegetarian?" Qin Dahe raised his eyebrows.

"Haha, you are also a frivolous kid. Your father is still alive."

Mr. Wang laughed heartily, and his fatigue from the whole night was much less.

The others were still a little confused as they had never experienced either meat or vegetarian food.

Then everyone started to eat breakfast, and they were all very hungry.

Slurp the porridge in big mouthfuls, then pick up two pieces of eight-treasure dish with chopsticks, it is so fragrant.

"This eight-treasure dish is good, it tastes really good."

"Yeah, it tastes better than what we make in Wuwei."

Eight Treasures Dish is also a local specialty snack, which is made by stir-frying white radish, shredded carrots, bean curd sheets, etc.

It's fragrant and crispy. I've eaten too much big fish these days, so it's quite appetizing to have some side dishes in the morning.

After dinner, Mr. Wang went to the yard to start the car.

"Dahe, are we going to the bank later? Get in my car."

"Well, save the money." Qin Dahe nodded.

The car has air conditioning and is more comfortable than the motorcycle tricycle.

After starting the car, the two of them rushed towards the city.

"Dahe, we can still fish here for two nights, right?" He threw a Red Nanjing over and they both lit it.

"You were there when we were discussing things today. The fishermen are very aggressive right now. It's already very difficult for Scar to hold out for two days."

"We can do it." Mr. Wang suddenly said seriously.

"what?"

"I said the loach nest can be caught. I'll go back and find someone to catch some, and you can take the others for another round of fishing."

It's a shame. Even in such a situation, they still want to do it. It's true that interests can motivate people.

"Based on our gains tonight, Scar will probably make over a hundred thousand in two days."

"So many?" Qin Dahe also did the math. He only caught a little over 30,000 fish the whole night yesterday, so the total catch was 110,000 fish.

Add two nights, it’s 170,000. It seems that Scar has paid a high cost, and he still has to pay them.

"Haha, you think the price he paid for the fish was very high? I called Jinling and asked, and the price of fish there is even better. All we have to do is find a car to deliver it."

When the window was opened, the smell of two people smoking was a bit pungent, and it became even worse with the air conditioner.

"My brother-in-law has five fishing boats near Tongling. Let's go fishing."

Qin Dahe was a little surprised when he heard this. With five fishing boats, there must be a lot of people. He is considered the local fishing tyrant.

"Haha, actually, I don't care. Making a million or eight hundred thousand a year is enough for me." Mr. Wang said with a smile, "My brother-in-law rammed a passenger and cargo ship a while ago and lost over a million yuan in compensation. He's trying to get compensation."

When he thought of his brother-in-law, he was speechless. He didn't even know to avoid such a big ship. In order to pay compensation, he even borrowed 20 yuan.

If I can't catch my breath, the two hundred thousand will be wasted.

"Then let him set up a nest and you guys go fishing. Any river where the water systems intersect and the terrain is complex will do, right?"

"It's almost okay. It's definitely good to be able to make money, but I only work in the Yangtze River. I can't work in those tributaries," he said seriously.

The loach nests in the tributaries can affect the livelihoods of local fishermen for a long time. It's so unethical.

The Yangtze River is fine.

As top predators like the Baiji dolphin become increasingly rare, predatory fish must be cleaned up.

He remembered that in 23 years, some experts proposed to restart the loach fishing method during the fishing ban period in the Yangtze River in order to clear out the fish such as silver carp and catfish.

Unfortunately, nothing happened in the end, otherwise those loach party members would definitely do it at all costs.

There is no need to recruit anglers. Just put up a fence around a nest and charge a fee, and let those air force fishermen pay to do the work.

"Okay, I'll contact you then."

When he arrived at the bank, Qin Dahe deposited the money. The number on the passbook went up a little, which was pleasing to the eye.

"Do you want to take a shower? I know there's a pretty good bathhouse in Jiuzi." Mr. Wang said with a smile in the car.

He was really tired these days, so he rubbed himself well and relaxed so that he would have enough energy to continue working in the evening.

"Okay, but I'll take a plain shower." In the middle of summer, any bathroom with an open door isn't very decent, but it's fine as long as you don't have to go upstairs.

The woman in his family treats him so well in this life, he definitely can't go out and have an affair.

"what ever."

With a step on the accelerator, he actually arrived at Xinshikou, just a few hundred meters away from Scar's shop.

At the corner, there was a big "Bath" sign hanging on it. The door was open even at 8 o'clock in the morning, which was outrageous.

The two walked in, and Mr. Wang skillfully asked the front desk for two hand cards and went directly to the changing room on the second floor.

The changing room here is just a metal cabinet and a bench, and taking a shower costs 20 yuan, which is very expensive.

If you want a lounge, add the project and go to the third floor.

When he came in, he noticed that the stairs leading to the third floor were actually security doors, and there was someone sitting there watching at a desk.

The two of them went into the bathroom together and started showering.

According to the rules of the underworld, you cannot take a bath in the "big bathhouse" because the pool is too dirty, even dirtier than the ones those old men take baths in in the public bathhouses.

After taking a hot shower, I feel relaxed all over. It would be even better if I could lie down somewhere for two hours.
