Chapter 240: Ding Xiaoxiang's worries
Eight o'clock in the evening.
Zhao Dahai drove the speedboat and slowly docked at the dock.
It wasn't too rainy, but it kept falling. It's chilly when the sea breeze blows.
Zhao Dahai steadied the speedboat, and looked at the surrounding fishing boats, there was no one on it, these were all fishing boats in the village that put fishing nets, and they all had to stay at home during the fishing moratorium.
Zhao Dahai was hungry and tired, so he took the water tank and caught fish in the live cabin.
"Gone?"
"That's all?"
Zhao Dahai was a little unbelievable, he scraped back and forth in the live cabin several times with a copy net, and there were no missed fish, he looked at the water tank, and roughly counted them, and there were less than thirty black sea bream, each of which was less than the size of a palm.
"There's more to the Inland Sea than just fishing here, right?"
Zhao Dahai was very depressed. Today is the first day of the fishing moratorium, rushing to make a lot of money, who would have thought that it would be such an ending, a hard day, and there is no pants left.
Zhao Dahai packed up the speedboat, cleaned the deck, carried the water tank with the fish, went to the dock and returned home, soaking wet, all the fish were put in the live fish pond to raise, and then took a bath and changed clothes.
Zhao Dahai held a big bowl, slapped the big pork belly into his mouth, and bit it hard, and all the oil flowers came out, all in his mouth.
Zhao Dahai ate three bowls of rice and ate almost a pound of pork belly, so he was down-to-earth.
"Grandma."
"I didn't catch any fish today!"
Zhao Dahai picked up the hot seaweed egg drop soup and drank it in one go.
"How can you make money every day?"
Zhong Cuihua looked at Zhao Dahai's return and knew that there was nothing to gain today.
Zhao Dahai finished dinner and walked out of the courtyard gate, the weather was bad, and the entire fishing village and the whole sea were shrouded in rain and fog.
There won't be fog tomorrow, right?
Zhao Dahai was a little worried. If you can't catch fish today, you will continue to dry tomorrow, and there is no future if you stay at home, as long as you go to sea, there is hope. If you are not afraid of rain, you are afraid of fog and wind.
Zhao Dahai stood for a while, turned around and went home to sleep, he will go to sea when the weather is good tomorrow, stay at home if the weather is bad, it is useless to dwell on it now.
Half past four in the morning.
Zhao Dahai got up in the dark, cooked breakfast, finished eating, packed the meal to be eaten at noon, thought about it, brought a bag of tea, and went out to the dock with fishing rods and other things to get on the speedboat.
Zhao Dahai looked at the sea carefully, there was no fog, what he was worried about last night did not happen, he simply packed up his things, and immediately went to sea, leaving the dock two nautical miles, the sea was open.
Zhao Dahai opened the navigation and fish exploration, set today's fishing spot, and slowly increased his speed.
Will you catch a fish today?
Zhao Dahai looked up into the distance, there was no usual lights of fishing boats, the sea was dark, how was today's harvest, everything was unknown.
Early morning.
Drizzle fluttering.
Liu Gang stood in front of the restaurant, his face was a little ugly, few people sent fish early this morning, and there were relatively few fishing boats going to sea during the fishing moratorium.
What to do?
Can you only use chilled fish?
The main focus of the seafood restaurant is fresh seafood. It's all chilled fish, what's the matter?
Liu Gang had a headache, but he knew that the business in his store was very good, and it was a bit difficult to use all the fresh seafood during the fishing moratorium.
Liu Gang knew that he had to prepare some chilled seafood, but no matter what, he had to have some high-end fresh seafood.
Liu Gang pondered for a while, and decided to go to various villages later to see if the fishing boats of those who went out to sea to fish could collect some fish, and the price would definitely be higher, but who said that it was now a fishing moratorium.
What about Zhao Dahai?
Why can't you see anyone now? Is it said that there are no people who go to sea?
Liu Gang turned his head to look in the direction of the street, but he didn't see the tricycle that Zhao Dahai was familiar with.
Yesterday and today were just rain and no wind, and they must have gone to sea, and if they didn't come, they didn't catch fish.
Liu Gang's heart immediately hung in the air.
Zhao Dahai is a master of fishing, if he can't catch a fish, doesn't it mean that those other people can't catch fish or catch very few fish?
Liu Gang saw Ding Xiaoxiang coming over on a tricycle, and he didn't care about the rain, so he immediately greeted him.
"Huh?"
"Is it just a little bit of black sea bream, yellow sea bream and sea bass?"
"This spot is a little smaller, isn't it? Only five or six pounds! ”
Liu Gang saw clearly the fish sent by Ding Xiaoxiang and was a little disappointed.
"Boss Liu."
"It's a fishing moratorium, and it's not easy to get a little work."
"It's not just a small number, it's a lot smaller."
Ding Xiaoxiang shook her head. The number is really small and the size is relatively small, all of them are fish from the fishing mouth, and they are offshore goods.
"Boss Liu."
"If you don't think it's appropriate, I'll just take it back and sell it in the fish market!"
Ding Xiaoxiang made a joke.
"Don't!"
"It's not that I don't think the goods are bad, but I think there are too few goods."
How could Liu Gang not want these fish, it would be good to have food during the fishing moratorium every year, and he didn't have to choose.
"Ding Xiaoxiang!"
"Can you send more tomorrow? This together is only fifty or sixty catties, which is really not enough to sell. ”
Liu Gang wanted more fish very badly.
Ding Xiaoxiang shook her head, it is easy to say that it is usually a fishing moratorium, and there is really no way to have more fresh fish, shrimp and crabs, and the stalls in the fish market at home basically sell all the chilled goods, and now it is just the beginning, and when it comes to twenty days or even a month, it is even more rare.
"Boss Liu."
"What about Zhao Dahai?"
"Why don't you see people selling fish here?"
Ding Xiaoxiang didn't see Zhao Dahai for a while, and couldn't help but ask Liu Gang, is Zhao Dahai here today.
Liu Gang shook his head, but Zhao Dahai did not come.
Ding Xiaoxiang was stunned for a moment.
Didn't come?
Isn't it impossible to catch fish?
Yesterday was the first day of the fishing moratorium, and Zhao Dahai definitely went out to sea.
100% of the fish you don't come here to sell fish are you don't catch fish or you catch very few fish.
How so?
Zhao Dahai didn't catch fish!?
Ding Xiaoxiang immediately became worried. The moratorium is definitely the most lucrative time for fishing boats.
It is reasonable for ordinary people to say that they can't catch fish, Zhao Dahai is a top master, if he can't catch fish, he can only have no fish in the sea.
Ding Xiaoxiang looked at the sky, it was gloomy and raining.
Is it the weather?
Ding Xiaoxiang remembered that early in the morning, the weather forecast said that such weather would last for three or even five days.
It's really the weather, and if there are no fish in the sea, the impact will be too great.
Zhao Dahai said when they met last time that there was no fishing in the past ten days before the fishing moratorium, and they were all running fishing spots to sweep the spots, thinking about making proper preparations, and doing a big job after the fishing moratorium began. People are not as good as heaven, and they didn't catch fish on the first day.
Ding Xiaoxiang waited for half an hour, but Zhao Dahai didn't appear, so she had no choice but to go back.
"Huh?"
"What's wrong?"
Zhang Li sold two catties of sand tip fish, and found that Ding Xiaoxiang was a little sullen and a little unhappy when she came back from selling fish.
"It's fine."
"It's just that Liu Gang said just now if you can have more fish, shrimp and crabs tomorrow."
Ding Xiaoxiang shook her head, worried that Zhao Dahai couldn't say anything about not being able to catch fish.
"Yo!"
"What do you think? It's a fishing moratorium."
"All we sell in our stall is chilled. Where is a little more violent. ”
Zhang Li shook her head directly, this is impossible.
"Mom!"
"Aren't there a lot of fishing boats? Why are there so few fish? Daddy confiscated the fish? How much should be able to be collected, right? ”
Ding Xiaoxiang couldn't help but open her mouth to inquire about the news.
"Hey!"
"How easy is it?"
"It's not that if there are fewer fishing boats with nets, the fishing boats will be able to catch more fish. In any case, the fishing efficiency of fishing boats is certainly not as efficient as releasing fishing nets. ”
"Otherwise, wouldn't there be fishing boats everywhere?"
"Besides. You don't know the weather these days, and the fish, shrimp and crabs in the sea must be affected. There are a lot of fishing boats, but none of them catch fish. ”
Zhang Li is very aware of the situation and knows what is going on.
Ding Xiaoxiang is even more worried now, there are fish in the sea Zhao Dahai will definitely be able to fish, there are no fish in the sea, Zhao Dahai can't use his great ability, such a big speedboat goes to sea, and there is a lot of oil money in a day, as little as three or four thousand or more than five or six thousand, when you can't catch fish, everything is fine, when you can't catch fish, this is a huge pressure.
Ay!
It's really not easy to make money!
Ding Xiaoxiang frowned and sighed in her heart.
Zhao Dahai often catches big fish, such as thirty or forty or even more than 100 catties of large grouper or mackerel, including red sweet, etc., each fish can be sold for 10,000 or even 350,000.
But when you can't catch fish, you don't lose half a little bit every trip.
For more than ten days before the fishing moratorium, no money was made every day, only money, at least 50,000 or 60,000 yuan was missing.
Yesterday I didn't catch a fish for a day, and I didn't see a few thousand dollars.
How can it be easy to make money?
Which trip to the sea can catch fish and make money?
Who knows?
Every day when Zhao Dahai drove the speedboat out of the dock, he had to bear tremendous pressure.
Zhang Li looked at Ding Xiaoxiang, her brows were tightened, her little face didn't smile at all, she was a person from the past, she probably knew what was going on, and wanted to say a few words, but the words came to her mouth and swallowed back, whether it was Zhao Dahai or someone else, this was something that Ding Xiaoxiang had to face.
Lin Zuhua drove the car, parked at the door of a store with the sign of "Chongshan Seafood", pushed the car door, and ran in quickly.
"Ding Chongshan!"
"Where!?"
Lin Zuhua shouted, and took a tissue on the tea table to wipe the rain on his face.
Ding Chongshan walked out of the office inside, saw Lin Zuhua, and immediately beckoned him to sit down on the sofa to boil water and make tea.
"What do you want to do at home in this weather? There's nothing good coming to me! ”
Ding Chongshan and Lin Zuhua have known each other for many years, especially when they went out fishing by themselves, they had to stay together for 20 days a month, and the relationship was very good.
"You can't do anything in this weather! It's boring! ”
Lin Zuhua took a sip of tea. It's inconvenient to go out in rainy weather, I can't stay at home, I can't stay in the office, so I drove to Ding Chongshan to drink tea and chat.
"Since the fishing moratorium began, your business here is not as good as it used to be, is it?"
Lin Zuhua put down the teacup in his hand, usually when he came here, the door of the store was crowded, and the car was full of people parked today, and no one had no car.
"Hmm."
"Every year for about two months, the number of fish, shrimp and crabs purchased and sold every day will be greatly reduced."
"This is the most leisurely time!"
Ding Chongshan nodded.
"Hah!"
"I'm more idle, but I'm more profitable!"
Lin Zuhua took out a cigarette in his pocket, played two bills, lit one himself, took a puff, and leaned back on the sofa, during the two-month fishing moratorium, the number of fish, shrimp and crabs was very small, but the price rose, and Ding Chongshan made no less, even more than usual.
Ding Chongshan smiled and nodded, there is no need to hide this matter in front of Lin Zuhua, this is the truth.
"That's right!"
"This time is relatively free, or let's go out to sea to fish, don't stay in the company all day!"
Lin Zuhua raised his head and smoked a cigarette while staring at the ceiling, suddenly thinking that he could go out to sea with Ding Chongshan to fish.
"Huh?"
"Did you go fishing?"
"Are you looking for that Zhao Dahai?"
Ding Chongshan immediately thought of Zhao Dahai.
"Hah!"
"That's right!"
"We're just going to find this Zhao Dahai!"
Lin Zuhua patted his thigh hard.
Ding Chongshan was very moved, but a little hesitant, when Zhao Dahai was mentioned the first two times, Zhang Li's reaction was very big, and she didn't want to go out to sea to fish by herself.
"Hah!"
"Ding Chongshan!"
"Why are you afraid of your wife again? It's not like it used to be fishing every day, but now it's just that there are not too many things to do, so two trips to the sea to fish so twice, what's the problem? ”
"It's not like there's no freedom at all, is it?"
Lin Zuhua and Ding Chongshan, friends for many years, know very well what is going on.
"You can't catch any fish in this weather! There were a lot of fishing boats, but I didn't catch any fish. ”
Ding Chongshan's old face turned red.
"Don't say anything!"
"That's it."
"I'll go to Langtou Village now to see if I can find this Zhao Dahai."
"Let's see what's going on."
"If there are really no fish, then take a slow, and if there are fish, then order a boat to go fishing."
Lin Zuhua waved his hand, this is an excuse, but it is also a fact, Ding Chongshan buys fish, shrimp and crabs all day long, whether there are fish in the sea, especially whether the fishing boat can catch fish, it is very clear.
"Okay."
"Then you go and take a look. Let's talk about it when there are fish. ”
Ding Chongshan gritted his teeth, his hands were really itchy, it was a big deal to cut it first and then play, or simply not let Zhang Li know.
Lin Zuhua drank tea for a while and drove away.
"This Zhao Dahai is indeed powerful, follow it out, maybe you can realize the dream of a big fish!"
Ding Chongshan sent Lin Zuhua away, sat down on the sofa, he hadn't fished for many years, he had been wanting to fish recently, his hands were getting more and more itchy, and he couldn't control it.
The sea is wide open.
Zhao Dahai was wearing a raincoat, but he was soaking wet, and the rod he was holding in his hand was reeling in the line, and after a while, the hook was pulled out of the water, and three palm-sized yellow chickens were struck.
Zhao Dahai pulled the line with his left hand, put down the rod with his right hand, picked up the yellow chicken, took it off and threw it into the live cabin, and immediately hung the bait to continue fishing.
"Hell yes! Does this weather affect so much?! ”
Zhao Dahai wiped his face while putting the line, and the fish probe saw that there were many fish on the bottom of the sea, but he didn't speak much.
Three hours!
I fished for three hours, but the size of the yellow chickens caught was relatively small and the number was relatively small.
Zhao Dahai frowned tightly, looking at the rain that kept hitting the sea.
"Do you want to bet on the big grouper once?"
Zhao Dahai was a little hesitant.
I didn't fish well for black sea bream yesterday, but today I changed my spot to catch yellow chickens. I wanted to see if I could make back the oil money or make most of the oil money, so that when the tide of grouper came, I could fish for grouper and gamble to see if I could make a lot of money.
Cover the flow fishing grouper, the engine of the speedboat is non-stop, very oil-burning. If the yellow chicken can make back the oil money, the pressure is not so great, but the yellow chicken caught in a few hours does make a little better than yesterday's black sea bream, but it is not much better. If you don't go to Gailiu fishing grouper, you will only lose 2,000 today, and if you go, you will lose 4,000.
Could it be that it is another day of less loss and less gain?
The rain is getting heavier and heavier.
The sea was white.
Zhao Dahai sighed, rainy days or any weather changes will affect the fish, shrimp and crabs in the sea, thinking that the water depth of 100 meters in the open sea is not great, and the impact is not great, but now it is not only an impact but also a great impact, more than he imagined.
Zhao Dahai watched the speedboats around him leave one after another, and at this time, the tide of grouper fishing was almost there, and they were all going to gamble on the big grouper.
Zhao Dahai gritted his teeth and decided to stay and continue fishing for yellow chickens. The fish in the sea are basically the same, the black sea bream and yellow chickens are not good at fishing, the grouper or other fish do not have much hope, and it is not meaningful to burn an extra 2,000 yuan of oil to bet on a grouper.
Zhao Dahai continued to fish for yellow chickens, the only way to be diligent with fewer fish, and to catch one more is one, until two o'clock in the afternoon when he was hungry.
Zhao Dahai put down the pole and got into the cockpit, there is a big sleeping cabin in the big speedboat pilot, which can lie down two people, very wide, such a rainy day, it is very comfortable to hide, take the lunch box brought out in the morning, it becomes a little hard when it is cold in the morning, where can I care, I finished the meal in a big gulp, took the thermos cup, unscrewed the lid, grabbed a handful of tea brought in the morning and put it in, screwed on the lid and shook it a few times, drank a few sips, and got soaked so many sips, it was very comfortable.
Zhao Dahai pulled the wet clothes on his body, and he had to bring a few clothes on the next trip, and he could change them when he got wet.
Zhao Dahai rested for about ten minutes, got out of the cockpit, looked at the surrounding sea was white, and didn't see any other speedboats, all of them ran away, either to bet on the big grouper or simply go home.
Dry!
Work hard!
Zhao Dahai picked up the rod, stuffed the bait cage with Antarctic shrimp, hung a deep-sea centipede on the hook, stood on the side of the speedboat, put the line down, directly ninety-eight meters of water layer, wait for a while, there was no movement, lift it up and put it down sharply at the same time, swing the rod left and right slightly, and the Antarctic shrimp in the bait cage were all spilled out at once, attracting as many fish as possible.
Hey?
Mouthbite?
What's going on?
So fierce!?
Zhao Dahai was stunned for a moment, and there was a very obvious and fierce bite from the rod, and the tip of the rod began to tremble.
Caught in the fish?
So fast?
So simply?
Zhao Dahai clenched the rod with his right hand, held his breath, remained motionless, waited for a while, and then there was another fierce bite, and the rod shook even more.
Not again!
The third bite!
The fourth bite!
The fifth bite!
Zhao Dahai raised the rod and quickly reeled the line, the rod was very heavy, and the tip of the rod was bent and shaken very much.
What fish?
What kind of fish will it be!?
Zhao Dahai's eyes widened, staring at the surface of the water, and a string of fish pulled up from the bottom of the sea.
Get rich!
Zhao Dahai saw the fish clearly, and was so excited that he almost jumped up.
Ask for commuter passes and recommended tickets! Thank you!
