Chapter 519: Tips for Fishing for Grouper
Chapter 519: Tips for Fishing for Grouper
"Everywhere, it's all luck!"
Feng Ji was no longer the antique shop owner with a stern face all day long. He was almost laughing.
"Xiao Fu, is this fish expensive?"
Fu Wan handed the hand-made net in her hand to Boss Fu, and nodded in answer when she heard Feng Ji's question.
"It's expensive, so expensive. The fish I was seen in the newspaper with last time was this kind of fish!"
After hearing this, Feng Ji became even happier.
"Then I have to be in the newspaper too?" He muttered, then shook his head. "No, I don't like the spotlight. Oh, what a pity there's no photo studio here. I want a picture too, so I can show it to those old guys later!"
"Why do I need a photo studio? I have a camera at home!"
Fu Wan casually said, "If you don't mind, I'll take pictures for you when I get home, and then I'll develop them and send them to you!"
"That would be perfect!"
Feng Ji was immediately delighted. After taking the photo, he developed seventy, eighty, or ninety copies. He gave two to Mr. Ning Sanye in Beijing, two to the old man in Sichuan Province, and he also sent stamps to other inland people. He put stamps on all of them and sent them to them so that they could all see the photo!
By the way, old man Ning San is blind, so he has to write a letter, describing all his experiences at sea today, and have someone read it to him.
Thinking of Ning San's jealous expression, Feng Ji couldn't help but laugh.
The grouper was very active and soon started jumping around again. Boss Fu carefully removed the hook from the fish's mouth, and Ye Xiaocui quickly went to find a larger basin.
Fu Wan poured some sea water into it, and then Boss Fu put the grouper in.
"Fortunately, we returned immediately, otherwise we would have had to keep the fish in the live water tank."
Looking at the fish gills opening and closing, Boss Fu also sighed.
Village Chief Fu nodded in agreement. The place where they were was only a few kilometers away from the dock. Not long after they put the grouper in place, their boat began to slowly approach the dock.
"Hey, why is the Fu family's boat back? Didn't they just leave not long ago?"
There were also many villagers on the dock who were preparing to go out to sea. They looked at Mr. Fu's new boat with some confusion.
"Yeah, I haven't even put out to sea yet, how come they're back? It's not even dark yet!"
Although Old Li knew the truth, he had no time to explain. He hurriedly took the chain thrown by Boss Fu and prepared to help the boat dock.
Seeing this, Fu Shi on the side also hurried over to help.
"Uncle, I'm strong, I'll do it!"
Fu Shi basically stays at the dock all day long. Sometimes when the dock needs people to unload cargo, he goes to help.
He could earn fifty cents for unloading a shipload of cargo, and sometimes he could make one or two dollars a day.
Of course, there were also people who didn't need help, so he would just wait at the dock. Once someone wanted to sell fish, he would help carry it onto the cart and then push it to Fu San's house.
After all, Fu San is also busy. Sometimes he has to go to the county town and doesn't have time to stay at the dock all day.
Of course, among all the bosses, Fu San is the most generous.
"Uncle, Village Chief, you are back!"
Hearing Fu Shi's voice, Boss Fu nodded slightly.
"Go push the cart over here, we have some fish!"
When Fu Shi heard this, he quickly tied the chain and ran to the side, pulling the cart over quickly.
Seeing Boss Fu and his men turn around and go to the boat to move things, a few gossipy villagers came over and grabbed Fu Wan.
"Awan, how come your boat came back so quickly today? I'm afraid it didn't get very far in such a short time."
Fu Wan smiled and explained, "We didn't go out to sea, but just took a look around the nearby waters. The Fisheries Administration invited an expert to come and do aquaculture for me, and I took him to see the situation in the waters.
Besides, the village chief is still on my boat, how can I take him so far away! "
The aunts nodded when they heard this. It was true. The old village chief was already so old. He had to stay up late at night to go out to sea. It was very hard. How could he bear it at his age?
However, when people in the crowd saw the fish baskets carried out by Boss Fu and his men, they immediately became puzzled.
"That's not right, if you were just hanging around here, how could you catch so many fish?
With so little time, dragging a net won’t work!”
They were all harmless aunts, so Fu Wan patiently explained to them: "We didn't bring a trawl net.
It was just by chance that we encountered a school of bluefin tuna. My dad and the others brought a hand-cast net. Otherwise, we wouldn't be able to sleep tonight!"
When these words came out, everyone was envious.
No matter how small a mosquito is, it is still meat. Even if the mackerel is cheap, you can still earn some money for oil!
"Awan, your boat is amazing. Today is our first time out to sea, and we've even encountered schools of fish just by wandering around.
If you go to the deep sea, you will definitely get liquidated!"
Who doesn't like to hear nice words? Fu Wan immediately responded with a smile: "Then I'm serious. If I get liquidated later, I'll treat Auntie to fish!"
This made the aunt smile. Although they were all fishermen, they were reluctant to eat the valuable fish and sold them all for money.
They also knew when Fu Wan delivered fish at the dock before that the fish this child delivered were not cheap.
Everyone was chatting and laughing, and their eyes never left the hands of Boss Fu and others who were coming in and out.
So when Fu Shi and Fu Lao Da carried out the basin containing the grouper, the crowd exploded instantly.
"What the hell is this? Such a huge grouper, and it's still alive?!"
"This is a real Eastern Grouper, right? Oh my God, let me touch it!"
The aunt who had just gathered in the front was instantly pushed aside by the uncles behind. They were also fishermen. It was not easy to catch a living grouper with a trawler, so it was most likely caught by hook.
It was rare for Fu Shi to be surrounded by so many people, and he was so scared that he immediately protected the basin, fearing that someone would catch the Eastern Star Banded Fish.
Boss Fu quickly pushed these men away.
"Everyone, please make way. Even if you want to see it, you have to let us put the fish down first!"
"Gou Wa, tell me quickly, did you catch this fish? Where did you catch it? What bait did you use?"
"Yes, yes, we are all from the same village. You can't keep it secret. Tell us now!"
Boss Fu was helpless and could only betray Feng Ji who had just got off the boat.
"It wasn't me who caught it, it was that guy who caught it!"
Feng Ji was arguing with Jiang Wanghai when he turned around and saw a group of villagers looking at him fanatically.
"What...what are you doing!"
Fu Wan straightened the cart and reminded him with amusement, "Uncle Feng, my uncles and aunts all like fishing. We saw the grouper you caught, so we wanted to learn from you!"
"Yes, comrade, tell me quickly, what kind of fishing rod and bait are you using?
Tell us quickly, and when you catch some fish, we'll treat you to a meal!"
Feng Ji was also at a loss whether to laugh or cry when he heard this, "The fishing rod is from Xiao Fu's family, and the bait was also prepared by Xiao Fu.
This was my first time fishing, so I guess I was just lucky!
