Reborn in the Millennium: Building a Fortune from Fishing

Chapter 66 Waiting
"Dahe, with so many of them, they might get stolen?" Many people saw the big commotion.

"It's okay, just let yours go. Let my mom get up early in the morning to go out on patrol."

There are many people in rural areas now, and many people place ground traps. It is normal for colleagues to see other people dumping goods from their ground traps in the morning, but there are fewer people who steal ground traps in the middle of the night.

Qin Dahe went back and took out some of the remaining silver carp and bighead carp bait, wrapped them into small packages with rags, and threw a few into a ground trap to lure fish and shrimp in.

You have to do the same thing when you go to Yuxi River to set up shrimp traps, but instead of silver carp and bighead carp bait, you put in animal offal, earthworms and chicken skeletons.

The four of them started setting traps at the door of his house, one every twenty meters, and they moved very quickly.

Many people saw it, but seeing the situation, no one wanted to steal the net. The small traps were not valuable, and Qin Dahe was not a fool. His family was not easy to mess with.

If you really want to catch big fish in the outer river, you have to go to places where lotus leaves gather or trees fall down, where it is not easy to cast nets.

There are really many people who set traps, and there are only a few people like Qin's father who make phone calls. How can the resources be compared with Yuxi River?

In 2000, the wild river resources in rural areas were not as abundant as imagined. Nowadays, people rarely go to the outer rivers to cast large nets because they cannot make money. At most, they catch some eels in the summer.

"What are you doing with so many traps?" My second uncle saw four people busying around and came over to see what was going on.

"Uncle, I'm raising some crucian carp and melon seeds. I've contracted the pond." He picked up a cigarette and handed it to his uncle.

"If you have that much time, you might as well buy seedlings. You don't have much money anyway."

"Hehe, the seedlings have been selected, let's raise them together." He did not mention that Fifth Master asked him to impersonate someone else, which was indeed shameful.

At this time, the water was basically flowing down to my second uncle's house, and the other three people also came over to share cigarettes.

"You guys have really been playing together since you were little." My second uncle said with a smile and went back.

The four of them smiled at each other and decided to play together. It would be so boring to go out and make money alone.

The silly kid has a grandmother and can't go out and explore the world.

Erhu and Tiedan are both the only children in the family. They are now in the confused period of growing up and don’t know what to do.

The family members didn't object to the four of them hanging out together. Now that Qin Dahe could make money, it would always be a good idea to hang out with him more.

"It's so boring at night, how about we play cards?" Erhu suggested?
"Don't you want to see your aunt?"

"Get out of here. Why do you always talk about this?" Erhu elbowed him angrily. Not to mention the children, they all wanted to turn off the TV after seeing Yin Zhiping's actions.

"It was just a joke. Let's go. I'll get up and drive tomorrow morning." He shared the last half pack of Hongmei cigarettes with Tiedan and Erhu.

These two people are still in a period of low economic status and have little spare money.

Most of the only children in rural families are like this. They have nothing to do when they are twenty years old, and their parents are the ones who cultivate the land at home.

If I go out to work, my family won’t let me go.

Qin Dahe is back and he will definitely take his brothers with him.

However, he hasn't figured out how to do it yet. He will see if he can get some money by the end of this year.

When he got home, he told his mother about the trap and went out for a walk in the morning.

"Okay, go to bed early. You have to drive tomorrow." She nodded towards the master bedroom and said, "Your dad is going fishing tomorrow. Remember to help him carry his things down in the morning."

Qin Dahe: “.”

He is really strong-willed despite his disabled body. He still goes fishing despite being in such a bad shape.

"I won't sell that fish tomorrow. Let's see if he can get some more."

"Ah."

Qin Dahe watched his mother enter the room, wanting to say something but stopping himself. He wanted to grind earthworms in a flour mill, but he couldn't bring himself to do it. He knew he would get beaten if he did.

Forget it, there shouldn’t be anything to do tomorrow, so I’ll just stay at home.

The next morning, he went with the old man to prepare the fishing spot and even helped him prepare the bait before leaving.

The old man felt a little guilty when he saw how thoughtful his son was. What he did yesterday was indeed a bit too much.

When they arrived at the entrance of Liming Supermarket, Qin Dahe started to solicit customers again.

The weather cleared up this morning, and people started going out again. The weather forecast last night said it would be cloudy and turn to overcast today, so I wonder if it will rain.

Soon there were seven or eight people sitting there. He looked towards the village entrance and saw that no one was getting on, so he set off directly.

Before we reached the gate, the cars were already full of people. We happily put away the money. Today was another day to make money.

When I came back the second time, it was just after seven o'clock and there were fewer people.

He went to Limin Supermarket and bought a pack of Double Happiness cigarettes. Hongmei cigarettes were too irritating to the throat. He smoked two cigarettes in the morning and his throat was numb.

"Grandpa, is there anyone in town who sells welding rods?"

"Yes, go to the hardware store at the entrance of the vegetable market. They also sell some welding rods."

Qin Dahe handed over seven dollars, picked up the Shuangxi cigarette and went to the car to smoke it.

Most people are reluctant to buy this kind of cigarettes, and they only buy a pack occasionally to enjoy.

After a while, he saw a pretty figure pushing a cart onto the road from the slope next to his house, and he waved.

"here!"

Yanyan blushed a little. There were so many people here, and she was very familiar with him. Really?

"Come and take my bike, it's free." He chuckled and went down to push her bike to the back of the tricycle, putting it in the middle so as not to affect the passengers.

"Let's go to my passenger seat."

"I can just sit in the back!" Yanyan took a step back cautiously.

This bastard has been teasing her behind her back and has been so enthusiastic these past two days. What is he doing?

"Come on, sit in the front. I can take one more." He pulled the person to the front and sat him down without saying anything. He continued to wait for customers outside and smoked.

The owner of Limin Supermarket was a little disappointed when he saw his arrogant look. There was no hope for Xiaoxue.

A villager I knew made a joke and asked if there was something going on between the two of them.
"Yes, we have played together since we were young, haha!" He responded with a smile, and no one could tell what he was thinking.

There were definitely not as many people in this group as in the first one, and he didn't wait any longer when he saw there were six of them.

He skillfully started the diesel engine and set off.

Since the cab is enclosed, the noise is not that loud. However, you have to slow down at every intersection to see if anyone is getting in the car.

There are quite a lot of trees on both sides of the county road heading towards the town, so you have to slow down a bit when turning, otherwise traffic accidents are likely to occur.

Inside the car, Yanyan was a little curious as it was her first time sitting in the passenger seat.

She often rides tricycles. The vibrations at the back make her head hurt, but the vibrations at the front make it much better.

This is due to the tricycle's unique assembly process. The front wheel is not subjected to much force, so it naturally does not shake as much when encountering an obstacle.

"Why aren't you talking? Didn't you like to pull my clothes when we played together before?" This girl really holds a grudge. It was just a whistle.
