Chapter Twenty-Three: Big Yellow Croaker? [Add more to follow-up]
There weren't too many people coming to the pier at noon, just fishermen waiting to go out to sea, and a small group of tourists preparing to charter a boat.
Chu Mingcheng's family has moved to the town for so many years, so he didn't know a fisherman among his neighbors and friends.
There are no acquaintances who will come to charter a boat, so I can only ask them one by one.
Fishing boats are parked on the shore, but the pier here is not large, and only a few dock them.
The other boats are close together, and from the first fishing boat, you can go to other fishing boats.
Chu Mingcheng asked Jiang Luoluo and the others to wait at the dock, while he got on the fishing boat and began to look for a suitable boat owner.
He won't choose those older uncles, mainly because they are old and have a lot of flowers and intestines in their stomachs.
In case of a big harvest today, the other party will not admit it and make trouble will affect the mood.
Of course, there is an honest man, but he doesn't have to take that risk.
Passing by a few boats, he suddenly saw a bald man cleaning the fishing boat, and his eyes suddenly lit up.
"Hey, Brother Zhao Jun, what a coincidence!"
When the man known as Zhao Jun heard someone calling him, he couldn't help but look back, and when he saw that it was Chu Mingcheng, he was immediately surprised: "Ah Cheng, why are you here?" ”
"I brought my friends over to play, and I was going to charter a boat to go to sea in the afternoon, but I didn't expect to meet you. Aren't you out of town, how can you be here? ”
Seeing Zhao Jun, Chu Mingcheng was also surprised. After all, the other party is out of town all the year round, because they often played together when they were children, and they also drank at the end of each year, and the relationship between the two parties is very good.
"It's not easy to do business in other places!" Zhao Jun sighed, not going to talk about this, but asked, "You said you brought a friend over to charter a boat?" You don't need to wrap it, I'll take you out to the sea to play, and when the time comes, you can just take it when you have a net to get good things. ”
"That's not good, the money for the charter boat still has to be given to you. And when I got off the boat, my friend would find it fun to play. "One yard at a time.
Judging from Zhao Jun's return to change careers to fishing, his life should not be easy. Naturally, this money has to be given, and he is not short of two thousand.
After paying the money, Chu Mingcheng went to pick up the three people from the dock.
When Zhao Jun saw Jiang Luoluo and Zhou Jiayi's appearances, he suddenly came over and grabbed him and asked in a low voice: "You kid, these two girls are so beautiful, which one is your girlfriend?" ”
"I've only known each other for two days, and someone else invited me to a big meal last night, so I can't help but show it!"
"Invite you to dinner? Then I think it's going to be sooner or later! ”
didn't ask any gossip, and Zhao Jun didn't care, if there was a problem, he would be able to see it later.
However, because of the girl's reason, he went to the warehouse and took out the sunscreen: "Ah Cheng will help me and build this shed to block the sun." ”
"Okay!" Chu Mingcheng agreed, and pulled Zhang Wei over to help.
Zhao Jun's boat is a fluffy boat, and there is a small space to rest on the engine, and people will not get the sun when driving the boat in the back.
However, when pulling the net, you have to go to the front deck, the sun is too hot in summer, even the old fishermen who often go to sea can't stand it, and the skin will peel off after a long time, so the fishermen here have made a sunscreen cloth.
Pulling from the rest compartment to the tip of the boat covers the entire foredeck.
After setting up the awning, Zhao Jun started the fishing boat and left the dock and went to the spot where he had lowered his net.
Chu Mingcheng saw that his small fishing boat was very new, and he knew at a glance that it was newly bought. In addition, he also had the idea of going out to sea to fish, so I asked him about the price of fishing boats.
"Brother Zhao Jun, your boat is very new, how much did you spend to buy it?"
"The price of this ship falling into the water is 120,000 yuan, and it is 13 meters long, which is not cheap." Speaking of this, Zhao Jun sighed a little in his heart, he was shocked when he first went to buy a boat because he knew the price, he didn't expect a small wooden fishing boat to be so expensive.
"Ahh
Since the price is so expensive, he might as well take his time and go directly to buy a second-class fishing boat when he has saved enough money.
"Why, you want to buy a boat to fish?"
"That's not true, the fish resources here are too poor, and fishing in the offshore waters is actually not very interesting."
"Alas, let's just mess around, I can still support my family." Zhao Jun sighed and said.
He can't do business outside and come back to fish, just because he can earn more than 100,000 yuan a year no matter how bad he is, it's just hard work.
But raising a family, what is the hard work.
Chu Mingcheng heard that fishing boats were so expensive, and he had actually begun to think about other plans in his heart.
He decided to first collect the resources that could be harvested on the shore, and then spend some time fishing at sea every day to slightly raise the level of common fish species in the East China Sea, and then consider renting a boat to go out to sea to fish.
The level doesn't need to be too high, as long as there are 5 levels.
Although level 10 has only begun to have obvious effects, the increase of 5% attributes is actually more or less effective, as long as it does not lose money.
With Zhao Jun's stopping, Chu Mingcheng's thoughts were also pulled back.
"It's here, it's not time yet, let's wait a minute!"
"Brother Zhao Jun, how long have you been putting this fishing net down?"
"It's been almost four hours, what, you're going to get up now?"
"Let's get up, I still have to prepare a big meal in the afternoon, and it will take a lot of time."
"Okay, you charter the boat, you have the final say."
The time is not too bad, since Chu Mingcheng has asked for it, Zhao Jun naturally has no opinion.
There are a total of six nets, and it will take a lot of time to pull them all up, and when he goes back to deal with the catch, the time is estimated to be three o'clock in the afternoon, so Chu Mingcheng does not plan to wait longer.
"Luo Luo, you and Jiayi stand behind, we're going to start the net."
"Want to help?"
"No, just pick out the crabs and big fish from the catch."
"Uh-huh, I see." Hearing this, Jiang Luoluo hurriedly pulled Zhou Jiayi to the cockpit, leaving enough space on the foredeck.
The boat drove to the side of the first fishing net foam buoy, Chu Mingcheng put on gloves, took the buoy on the side of the boat, and then found the rope of the fishing net and handed it to Zhao Jun who came over.
He took it and tied the rope to the winch, then started the winch.
As the winch turns, the nets under the surface of the water are slowly pulled up.
After the net was completely pulled up, Zhao Jun went over and grabbed the opening of the net, pulled it hard, and then put it on the side of the boat.
Chu Mingcheng saw that he was struggling to pull, so he asked Zhang Wei to put on gloves, and the two of them helped together.
Zhao Jun's fishing net will spread out in the water, and the whole net will be retracted when the rope is pulled up, and as the net is pulled up, the catch will also be concentrated at the tail position.
The ropes are thick, and you need to pull the whole net up to pour all the catch on the deck, unlike a gillnet.
Although it is troublesome to pull, it is not as easy to knot as easily as a gill net, so you can put it back on the deck when the catch is poured on the deck.
When the nets are pulled up, they are entangled in a number of dead dragonfish, most of which are too small to be cleaned up, and can attract other predators.
Jiang Luoluo and Zhou Jiayi stood at the back of the boat and stared closely at the fishing nets in the water, but after the tail of the fishing nets also fell to the surface, she suddenly shouted in surprise: "Yellow yellow, there is a big yellow croaker!" ”
