Chapter 23 Big yellow croaker? [add more to follow up]
There are not many people who come to the pier at noon, they are fishermen who are going to go to sea later, and a small group of tourists who are going to charter a boat.
Chu Mingcheng's family moved to the town for so many years, so he didn't know a single fisherman among his neighbors and friends.
There are no acquaintances who will charter the boat, so I can only ask one by one.
Fishing boats are parked on the shore, but the pier here is not big, and there are only a few boats that dock.
The other boats are all close together one by one. From the first fishing boat, you can go to other fishing boats.
Chu Mingcheng asked Jiang Luoluo and the others to wait at the pier, while he boarded the fishing boat and started looking for a suitable boat owner.
He will not choose those older uncles, mainly because they are old and mature and have a lot of fancy intestines in their stomachs.
In case the harvest is big today, the other party will not admit that it will affect the mood when the time comes.
Of course, there are honest people too, but he doesn't have to take this risk.
Passing by several boats, he suddenly saw a bald man cleaning the fishing boat, his eyes lit up.
"Hey, Brother Zhao Jun, what a coincidence!"
The man named Zhao Jun heard someone calling him, and couldn't help but look back, seeing that it was Chu Mingcheng, he was surprised and said, "Ah Cheng, why are you here?"
"I brought my friends over to play and planned to charter a boat to go out to sea in the afternoon. I didn't expect to meet you. Aren't you out of town, why are you here?"
Seeing Zhao Jun, Chu Mingcheng was also very surprised. After all, the other party is out of town all the year round, because they often played together when they were young, and they also drank at the end of every year. The relationship between the two parties has remained pretty good.
"It's not easy to do business in other places!" Zhao Jun sighed, not intending to talk about it, but asked, "You said you want to charter a boat with your friends? You don't need to charter it. I'll take you out to sea for fun. When the time comes If you find something good online, just take it.”
"That's not okay, you still have to pay for chartering the boat. And after chartering off the boat, my friends will find it interesting to play." Things come together one by one.
Judging from Zhao Jun’s return to fishing, his life should not be easy. Naturally, this money must be given, and he is not short of two thousand.
After paying the money, Chu Mingcheng went to pick up the three people at the dock.
Zhao Jun saw Jiang Luoluo and Zhou Jiayi's looks, and suddenly came to a sudden surprise, he sneaked over and grabbed him and asked in a low voice: "You can do it, these two girls are so beautiful, which one is your girlfriend?"
"We've only known each other for two days, and someone treated me to a big dinner last night. I can't help but say so!"
"I still invite you to dinner? Then I think it will be a matter of time!"
Didn't ask any gossip, Zhao Jun didn't take it seriously, if there is a problem, you can see it later.
But because of the girl, he went to the warehouse and took out the sunscreen cloth: "Ah Cheng, come 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 for rest above the engine, so people will not be exposed to the sun when driving behind.
However, when pulling the nets, you have to go to the front deck. The sun is too harsh in summer, and even the old fishermen who often go to sea can’t stand it. After a long time in the sun, the skin will peel off, so the fishermen here have made a sunscreen cloth.
Pulling from the rest cabin to the tip of the ship can cover the entire top of the front deck.
After finishing the awning, Zhao Jun started the fishing boat to leave the pier and headed for the place where he lowered his net.
Chu Mingcheng saw that his small fishing boat was very new, so he knew it was newly bought. In addition, I also have the idea of going fishing, so I asked him about the price of fishing boats.
"Brother Zhao Jun, your boat is very new, how much did you pay for it?"
"This boat costs 120,000 yuan and is 13 meters long. The price is not cheap." Speaking of this, Zhao Jun sighed in his heart. When he first went to buy a boat, he was shocked when he knew the price. Small wooden fishing boats are so expensive.
"Ah, here." Chu Mingcheng was stunned immediately. He thought that this kind of wooden boat would be cheaper, but he didn't expect that the price was not much worse than a ten-meter fishing boat.
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 also want to buy a boat for fishing?"
"That's not true. The fish resources here are too poor, and fishing in the offshore is actually not very interesting."
"Well, let's just hang out, and still be able to support the family." Zhao Jun sighed.
He couldn't continue his business outside and came back to fish because he could earn more than a hundred thousand a year from fishing, so it was just a little bit harder.
But raising a family, hard work is nothing.
Chu Mingcheng heard that fishing boats are so expensive, and he actually started to think about other plans.
He decided to first collect the resources that can be collected on the shore, and then spend some time fishing every day to raise the level of common fish species in the East China Sea a little, and then consider the method of renting a boat to go fishing.
The level does not need to be too high, as long as there are 5 levels.
Although there are obvious effects at level 10, a 5% attribute increase can actually be more or less effective, as long as it doesn't lose money.
As Zhao Jun stopped the boat, Chu Mingcheng's thoughts were pulled back.
"It's here, the time is not up yet, wait a little longer!"
"Brother Zhao Jun, how long has your fishing net been down?"
"It's been almost four hours, why, are you going to turn on the Internet now?"
"Get up, I have to prepare a big meal in the afternoon, and it will take a lot of time."
"That's fine, you charter the boat and you have the final say."
The time was not too far behind. Since Chu Mingcheng asked, Zhao Jun naturally had no objection.
There are six nets in total, and it will take a lot of time to pull them all up. When we go back and deal with the catch, the time is estimated to be three o'clock in the afternoon, so Chu Mingcheng doesn't plan to wait any longer.
"Luoluo, you and Jiayi stand behind, we are going to set up the net."
"Do you need help?"
"No, just pick out the crabs and big fish from the catch later."
"Yeah, I see." Hearing this, Jiang Luoluo hurriedly dragged Zhou Jiayi to the cockpit, leaving enough space for the front deck.
The boat drove to the side of the first fishing net foam buoy. Chu Mingcheng put on his gloves and took the buoy up from the side of the boat. Then he found the rope of the fishing net and handed it to Zhao Jun who came over.
He took it, tied the rope to the winch, and started the winch.
With the rotation of the winch, the fishing net under the water surface is slowly pulled up.
After the fishing net was fully pulled up, Zhao Jun went to grab the opening of the fishing net, pulled it hard, and 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.
The fishing net of Zhao Junfang will spread out in the water, and the whole net will be closed when the rope is pulled up. As the net is pulled up, the caught fish will also be concentrated at the tail.
The net rope is very thick, and the whole net needs to be pulled up to dump all the catch on the deck, which is different from gillnet.
Although it is troublesome to pull, it will not be easily knotted like a gillnet. After the catch is poured on the deck, it can be put back directly to continue fishing.
When the fishing net was pulled up, many dead dragon head fish were entangled on it. Most of these dragon head fish were relatively small and would not be cleaned. Putting them on the net could attract other predators.
Jiang Luoluo and Zhou Jiayi stood at the back of the boat and stared at the fishing net in the water, but when the tail of the fishing net was out of the water, she suddenly shouted in surprise: "Yellow, yellow, there are big yellow croakers!"
