Entering the house, it was an eye-opener for Bei Hai, all the interior decoration to the furniture is completely pure European style, this style is not like an ordinary line ah pull a ceiling or something, because it should be said that the interior design style of the old man's home is a pure European canonical style, carved beams and paintings, complex and gorgeous lines can be seen everywhere, even the people on the roof and the ordinary flat top that is not used in the first place, the dome is used and the dome is painted with murals, and all are myths, And from time to time there is an oil painting on the wall, all of which are realistic.

The whole room does not look like a fisherman's mansion, but rather a small European palace.

Such an environment makes Bei Hai say that he can't say anything, but if he insists on letting Bei Hai describe it, he can only use a big word, or add a hanging word. Although Bei Hai didn't know any paintings, he thought that these paintings were all made by painters, not imitations, because Bei Hai had not seen any famous paintings such as the Mona Lisa.

When George took Bei Hai and Lauren to sit in the special small reception room, a housekeeper in her forties pushed the door and walked in, asked everyone what they needed to drink, and then it didn't take two minutes for the two servants and the butler to give the three of them the drink they wanted.

Now ∴ George is like the old man on the dock who lamented that business is not doing well, and now George is holding a cigar in one hand and Lauren face to face and gently roasting it while talking to Bei Hai.

"You don't smoke?" Lauren seems strange that Bei Hai doesn't smoke: "Of all the fishermen I know, I can count them on one hand!" Besides, I'm not a cigarette, it's a cigar! ”。

Bei Hai waved his hand and picked up the green tea in front of him and took a sip: "Although I don't smoke myself, I don't mind others smoking, I am now on a ship, both crew members smoke, but they smoke very little, and it is rare to see them smoking!" ”。

George looked at the tea in front of Bei Hai. Then he picked up the red wine glass in front of him and drank it down. After drinking a cup, he poured himself another glass, then took a puff of his cigar and continued to ask himself questions.

The old man's posture of drinking red wine opened Bei Hai's eyes. Generally speaking, it is necessary to let the domestic petty bourgeoisie or red wine fans, the red wine must first be shaken and then tossed vigorously before it can be drunk into the mouth, if it is not all down, but the old man in front of him is directly stuffy, as if it is poured into the mouth, like drinking boiling water more than drinking.

"You don't smoke or drink!" Saying that, George himself smiled and shook his head: "It's much more self-disciplined than me!" ”。

Without waiting for Bei Hai to answer, the old man continued: "One and a half million catches a year are great! It was about the same as the best years of my time, probably from 88 to 94, and my catch was more than 1.5 million every year in the past few years, and at the most I had 1.9 million! As far as I'm concerned, I have to fill the cabin at least twice throughout the season. And then there was the last half-hatch catch ......".

As he spoke, the old man was a little proud when he mentioned his former glory days, and when he was a captain, the old man seemed very excited, and when he was happy, he brought himself a big sip of wine or a big sip of a cigar.

Listening to the old man's story, Bei Hai couldn't help but give a thumbs up in his heart: Cow! Bei Hai really didn't expect that any fisherman could be so awesome, the swordfish in a fishing season was full twice, and even the best sword-flag fisherman in Gloucester couldn't do this. And this old man not only fishes by himself, but also is willing to help others, from the two sentences that Lauren is not flattering his idol, Bei Hai knows that what the ** old man said is true.

That's more than a million dollars in revenue, around the nineties, when dollars were worth a lot more than they are now. On the surface, it seems that he is almost in the same equivalent class as Bei Hai, but after removing inflation, the old man made much more than Bei Hai back then.

If according to the old man's statement, Bei Hai calculated that every time his boat lowered the longline, if it was calculated according to the normal two. Every two or three sets of hooks on these two ropes have a fish bite, which means that after one fish is dragged up, the next fish will appear in their own and their sight, which is a bit too alarming.

However, listening to the old man's story, what Bei Hai felt most was not how much money the old man made. The number of fish you catch is the time to sail from your own fishing port to the ever-changing Atlantic Ocean in the autumn and winter. That courage and unity. As a gold-tuned fisherman, Bei Hai can't see the unity and cooperation between the fishing boats at all, but in the old man's mouth, the cooperation and mutual help between the sword-flag fishermen are much more comfortable.

"There is no cooperation between the fishermen except competition or competition," Bei Hai interjected with a wry smile.

George couldn't help but laugh twice when he heard Bei Hai talk about this problem: "The Sword Banner Fisherman can't help it. As soon as the ship arrived in the Atlantic, there was no hope for any Maritime Guard. What is there to fear about the tuna fisherman, as soon as the slightest storm comes, he immediately hides in the nearest port, and if the storm lasts for a long time, he can take the car home and sleep for a few days, and once the storm passes, he can go to sea again. The only thing you can count on is the fishing boat like you, and if you don't lend a helping hand, the sea may kill you if you get into the slightest trouble! I've been out to sea for so many years, and I've seen the boat capsize and people die not once or twice, and the storm hasn't been once or twice when I see someone killed, and the sea doesn't know any good fishermen and bad fishermen, and those who get angry still want to die! So as long as your boat breaks down and sends a distress signal, the nearby fish boat will come to your aid even if it has just lowered the longline, because life is always more valuable than money! ”。

"So much competition between the tuners?" Lauren is a rookie and has only worked on a sword flag fishing boat for now, and in the ports near Canada, the bluefin tuna fishing boats are not usually in the port of St. John's, and this kid has never seen a fight between tuners.

Bei Hai directly gave a general overview of his fishing season from the beginning and then concluded: "That's it, everyone wants to get complete and accurate information from others, but they really don't want to share their own information when it's their turn." If everyone can be honest and honest, everyone's catch can go to the next level, take the Hunter and Christina, Tuna I and II as an example, they all gather together with such a piece of information, each family does not hide their secrets, and everyone's catch has increased? I just can't see it! ”。

"Is the message you giving someone accurate or not?" George interjected at Bei Hai.

Bei Hai smiled and said: "There were one or two times when it wasn't so accurate, but it was basically accurate later, and the questions were all about the fishermen who got along well with me, so I'm embarrassed to lie!" ”

George nodded and said, "It's rare! ”。

"Do you know who my idol is?" After saying the above sentence, George immediately asked Lauren and Bei Hai thoughtlessly.

Not to mention that Bei Hai was a little dumbfounded by this question.

"In our time, many young people took a break? Hefner, as his idol, once had a very famous saying, like Hugh? Hefner made money like Hugh? Hefner is alive as well! ”。

Stop? Who was Hefner? Bei Hai is very Mo Sheng for this name, saying that it is a movie star, it is not very similar, all young people live like a movie star? It's also a fashionable slogan, which is a bit incredible.

George looked at Bei Hai with a blank look on his face, and explained, "Hugh? Hefner founded Playboy".

As soon as it comes to this, Bei Hai understands, it turned out to be the former head of the playboy, and now I heard that the helmsman of the playboy has been replaced by his daughter, but although I can't remember the name of the old helmsman of the playboy, Bei Hai has also heard of his deeds, in short, in a popular sentence now: If you are rich, you will be willful!

This is not only a flower magazine, but also a lot of money in life, and the cover of the first issue of "Playboy" is Marilyn? Monroe's fruit photo, this move doesn't look like much no matter where you put it now, and the so-called fruit photo is like that, but it was immoral in the United States at that time, but the more immoral things are, the more attractive they are. Later, the United States entered the era of sexual liberation. Hefner became the idol of young people.

There are constantly beautiful women around him, and he started from scratch by raising money from more than 40 people, which is simply Chiguoguo's American dream. This portrait of the character was put in that person's era, and he was really a super idol, and he came into contact with countless beautiful girls every day in his work and life, and there were very few clothes! I'm afraid that few men can refuse this kind of life.

"So it's true that people say that you always have beautiful girls around you?" Lauren looked at George and asked. Maybe I'm a little embarrassed to ask myself, and I want to say something or apologize.

George raised his hand: "It's okay, I can sue you, I don't know anything else they said, but this one is true!" I have never hidden that I like beautiful women," and the old man added: "Young and beautiful women! ”。

This was said very calmly, and the old man's gaze was very straightforward.

Of course, even if he is not straightforward, it is also the old man's own business, Bei Hai does not want to put himself on the highest moral point to evaluate other people's lives, because this thing has nothing to do with himself, others change eight beautiful girls in one night, and he eats so much in a day, and it does not affect his own righteous messenger who is not full of righteous indignation.

But the next old man's words made Bei Hai a little entangled.

"Hull! You're a lot like when I was younger! George looked at Bei Hai and then protruded the headless sentence from his mouth.

What the?! Much like when you were younger? Bei Hai didn't believe his ears a little. (To be continued......)
