Chapter 082: The road is narrow
At half past ten in the morning, Bei Hai walked out of the hotel and walked towards the dock, as for Qi Yiming, he was called to the boat by Matt at eight o'clock, saying that he was making preparations.
Bei Hai, who was walking with his hands empty and shaking, remembered this, let out a sigh of relief, and thought happily in his heart: This is what the captain should do!
In the past, everything on the ship was done by himself, but now after suddenly adding a person, almost all of his work has been pushed out, no wonder the old ship with a little performance likes to hire two people, it turns out that the roots are here.
While happily walking empty-handed, Bei Hai was entertaining himself and enjoying such a happy time.
"Everything is ready?" As soon as he got to the dock and got on the boat, Beihai asked Matt.
Matt nodded happily: "Everything is ready, let's have a look!" ”。
"Hmm!" Hearing Matt say this, Bei Hai motioned to the old man to look at the catalog of accompanying things posted on the wall of the cabin. As it turned out, Officer Matt was very serious and had a lot of things to bring.
With everything in tow, Bei Hai walked directly to the cockpit, and said as he walked: "Prepare to anchor, guys, let's go!" ”。
Hearing what Bei Hai said, Qi Yiming immediately climbed onto the dock and began to untie the cables one by one, throwing each cable onto the boat, and then continuing to untie the next one, after the three cables were untied, the engine of the Ripple had already turned.
Bei Hai watched Qi Yiming jump onto the boat, and directly pushed the control lever, the Ripple spewed out a turbulent current at the tail, the hull swung slightly, and the bow of the boat left the dock and pointed to the channel in the river.
There was a calm in the harbor, and the light wind and waves could not affect the movement of the Ripple, but as soon as he sailed out of the port and into the sea, Bei Hai felt that although the wind and waves were smaller than the previous two days, they were much better than when the wind and sun were beautiful.
Set the boat to autopilot, Bei Hai stuck his head out of the cockpit and looked at Qi Yiming, who was leaning on the side of the boat, and said, "The wind and waves are a bit big today, do you want to take a break?" ”。
"It's okay!" Qi Yiming was busy with the work in his hands, and said to Bei Hai that he could do it.
Seeing that his face was fine, Bei Hai turned his head and sat back in his captain's chair, looked at the navigation from time to time, and easily enjoyed the captain's privilege: there is nothing to do now!
After Qi Yiming said that he was okay for more than an hour, there was something. Although the wind and waves are not big, it is for an old fisherman like Matt, let alone a person like Bei Hai who does not faint no matter how he shakes in the sea. Although Qi Yiming said that he didn't get motion sickness, it also depends on what kind of boat it is, such a small fishing boat is dangling in the sea, and the pointing of the bow of the boat goes from up to down and then up in two or three seconds, where is such a fast frequency that Qi Yiming, a novice fisherman, can resist.
Qi Yiming began to vomit and vomited more and more frequently, not to mention the little things he ate, and in the end, he was afraid that he would even vomit out the water he drank at night.
Bei Hai looked at Qi Yiming, who was kneeling on the deck, holding the side of the boat with both hands and resting his chin on the side of the ship, and said, "If it doesn't work, you can go into the cabin and rest!" ”。
Qi Yiming didn't look at Bei Hai either, he directly raised his left hand and waved at Bei Hai a few times weakly, and then immediately grabbed the side of the boat, and his mouth sounded, oh! , spit out two more mouthfuls, and now it seems that there is no clear water.
"His body hasn't gotten used to it yet, and it's good to get used to it, whoever encounters such a situation for the first time will vomit" Matt didn't care at all. In the old man's opinion, there are a few fishermen who have not been spit out when they encounter strong winds and waves, and this time it is rookie luck, and now this wind and waves are still small.
"Is there any medicine, let him take one" Bei Hai looked at Qi Yiming and said to Matt.
"Why do you want to take medicine, his current appearance is a normal reaction, a person who has never experienced this situation is like this, after waiting for a few hours or a day or two, the body will adapt to such an environment, there is no need to take any medicine!" Matt said.
Matt hadn't even thought about bringing any seasickness medicine, and I don't know if there was anything in the town. In Matt's opinion, vomiting in the dark is the first step to becoming a qualified fisherman, you have to take medicine or something for such a wind and waves, so what to do if there is a storm at sea.
Bei Hai didn't have any medicine himself, so he could only let Qi Yiming go and throw up the side of the ship.
This time Bei Hai chose the fishing spot or the first time to go to sea, now that place after two such a toss, plus Bei Hai changed to Cape Cod Bay also has a great harvest, there are a lot less tuna drivers around there, after all, that place is too far, it will take a day to go back and forth, for many fishermen who can't catch a few fish, fuel is also a big cost, isn't it?
"We're going to the first fishing ground this time, if you're done, go into the cabin and rest, there's at least ten hours left, and we can get there" Bei Hai turned his head and shouted at Matt and Qi Yiming on the deck.
"Wait a minute, I'll smooth the things here first, and take out the baitfish and prepare to thaw first!" Matt glanced at Qi Yiming and replied to Bei Hai.
Qi Yiming's current watch made old Matt shake his head, such a little wave actually vomited into this virtue, judging from Matt's experience, even if he went to the fishing ground, most of the work on this deck still fell on his shoulders.
Although he thought so in his heart, Matt didn't say that all the dissatisfaction of the ship had left the port and could only be said when he returned to the dock, and now the only person on this ship who could complain was Captain Hull in the cockpit.
Matt finished the business at hand, helped Qi Yiming down to the cabin, and then the two of them just lay on the bed to rest. As an old fisherman, Matt soon fell asleep. And Qi Yiming retched twice from time to time holding a garbage basket with a garbage bag, and sleeping was something he didn't even think about.
It is estimated that he will recruit new people when he goes back this time, Bei Hai poked his head down the hatch and looked at Qi Yiming's appearance a few times, and then he had such a thought in his heart.
After more than ten hours of sailing, it was almost half past one in the afternoon when the Ripple arrived at the fishing grounds.
Although there are a lot fewer fishing boats nearby, there are still more than a dozen boats moored in this sea area, and the previous mooring point in Beihai has long been occupied by a rookie boat.
Matt had already woken up, was cutting bait on the deck, looked up at this situation and said to Bei Hai, "Do you want to sail over and let him get out of the way?" ”。
"There's no need for that!".
Bei Hai knows what Matt means, there is a rule among fishermen, that is, don't rob other people's fishing spots, it is mentioned that fishermen are generally superstitious, thinking that the coordinate point where they have caught fish is a treasure, if someone robs it and causes a battle of tongues, at least Fake is indispensable to fly all over the sky.
There may be some scientific basis for this, or it may be a psychological reason. Other captains will do this, but Bei Hai is not ready to waste saliva with others, he just has a soil dog under the ship now, as for the fritters put in the water, Bei Huo does not have great hopes for this goods.
According to the information from the earth dog, Bei Hai found a place a little farther away from the original fishing spot and dropped anchor.
As soon as he dropped anchor, Beihai was ready to step out of the cockpit and start preparing to place the fishing rod and wear the bait as before.
Before Bei Hai picked up the fishing rod, he heard Qi Yiming's voice in his ears: "You go to rest, captain, I'll do this thing!" ”。
Turning his head to look at Qi Yiming, who was holding the hatch, his face was pale, and asked, "Are you okay?" ”。
"It's okay, Matt didn't just say it's a good habit, I'm a crew member, I don't go out to sea to sleep," said Qi Yiming, who directly reached out and picked up the fishing rod and walked towards the stern.
Bei Hai didn't leave, just looked at Qi Yiming threading the pendant, and then took the bait.
"Just use one of the three fishing rods for live bait, and use frozen bait for the rest!" Bei Hai looked at Qi Yiming's second pole and touched another live bait, and immediately said. If two fish are hooked, you will not only waste a sea bait, but also cut off the fishing line and the hook with a sinker, which will be a big loss.
After reminding Qi Yiming, Bei Hai put bait in the prawn cage he got on the boat yesterday, and then tied it into the sea with a long rope, and waited for the cage to reach the bottom of the sea, and Bei Hai directly tied the tail of the rope to the side of the boat.
Matt watched his captain's movements, and just wanted to say that when he looked up and saw a ship anchored a mile from the Ripple, Matt's eyes knew what the ship was called, and he couldn't help but spit out a sentence in his mouth when he looked at the ship: "Fake!" ”。
Bei Hai also saw the ship at this time, and opened his mouth to say: "Is this preparing to stage a narrow road?" ”
