Fisherwoman: After my divorce, I became rich by fishing at sea

Chapter 106 Fishing Competition

Originally, Fu Wan thought that there was something wrong with Xue Qing's boat and that the fishing competition would come to an end. However, she did not expect that in the evening, she would receive a notice to go out to sea tomorrow.

Yes, it's a notification.

Let them go out to sea early the next morning, with the main focus being to catch giant clams and corals on the seabed.

Take whatever is valuable.

Xue Qing stopped pretending. They had originally planned to let the villagers catch some conchs, and then gradually select a group of people with good swimming skills to catch giant clams.

I didn't expect that the people in Fujia Village were all unruly.

The troublemakers also love money. Even with the huge reward, he is still worried that no one will go into the sea?

Ten dollars per person, and there’s an extra charge if you get something valuable.

Fujia Village was in an uproar. Not only the adults, but even the teenagers in the village knew how to swim.

Nowadays, every family has several children, and the children have children, so each family has more than ten people.

With this calculation, even if five or six people go into the sea, it will still cost fifty or sixty yuan!

That’s much more cost-effective than a night out at sea!

After dinner in the evening, the topic of discussion among everyone while they were enjoying the cool breeze under the tree became this.

Everyone was asking how many people in their family went to the sea to compete and make money. For a while, the place under the big tree at the entrance of the village was very lively.

After dinner, Boss Fu and his family went to the yard to enjoy the cool air. Boss Fu sat on a bamboo chair and fanned Fu Ling who was still playing from time to time.

Fu Wanze was busy with her jellyfish skins. She simply cut up the red moon jellyfish she had caught the day before and hung them in the well to cool them down.

Since she had nothing to do, she cut the head and skin of the red moon jellyfish into jellyfish strips and then pickled them with salt.

Because she was curious about the difference in taste between jellyfish heads and jellyfish skins, she took out two buckets, one for pickled jellyfish skins and the other for pickled shredded jellyfish heads.

Fu Ming watched Fu Wan busying herself from the side, and went up to help from time to time, carrying a bucket or moving water.

But he was still a little confused, "Awan, is this thing really edible?"

Fu Wan had only eaten processed jellyfish skin in her previous life, and now she was not sure whether the steps were the same.

The only poisonous part of the red moon jellyfish is the tentacles below, and she had thrown them all away.

It’s a pity that it’s still the 1980s and mobile phones are still brick-like big brothers, otherwise I could try Baidu.

Fu Wan pickled the jellyfish strips with salt, and then placed the two small buckets of stuff in the well to continue calming it.

"Awan, can't I really go to that fishing competition tomorrow?"

Fu Ming was actually quite interested in this fishing competition. He hadn't been to the sea since the last incident, and every time he saw Fu Wan catching fish and picking up abalone and lobsters from the bottom of the sea, he could only look on with envy.

Fu Wan didn't mean to stop her brother from going into the sea. "If you want to go, let's go together when we go out to sea. There will be so many people tomorrow, it will be like dumplings. What else can be found on the seabed?"

Fu Ming thought about it and although he was a little unwilling, he was persuaded by Fu Wan the next second.

"Put on that diving suit later, and we'll go down together and try it."

Yes, I have a diving suit at home!

Fu Ming suddenly felt hopeful, and he wished that the fishing competition would end soon so that he could go into the sea with his sister.

Boss Fu doesn't really care whether his two children make money by participating in the competition. The main thing is that his family doesn't want to deal with Xue Qing.

If Fu Wan had not promised Xue Qing before, he would have stopped her from going.

So when they were about to go back to the house to sleep, Boss Fu pulled Fu Wan aside and told her again the precautions to take when going into the sea, and be sure not to get into any trouble on the seabed.

He has been dealing with the sea for two lifetimes. The ocean looks beautiful and there are many valuable things on the seabed, but the danger has never disappeared.

The previous incident with Fu Ming is an example.

Fu Wan comforted him, "Don't worry, Dad. I'm just like a fish in the sea. And I won't pick up anything valuable for that guy. Just take something and let him go."

Only then did Boss Fu feel relieved.

……

The next morning, Fu Ling followed Ye Xiaocui to the dock, which was very lively at the moment.

Not only the villagers from Fujia Village, but also many villagers from several nearby villages came.

Xue Qing and Jiu Jingxiong stood at the dock with several fully armed men, while Fu Wan was still dressed the same as before when she went out to sea.

The rules of this fishing trip are that everyone is free to go out to sea, they can drive a boat or go directly into the water, but all the catches from this trip must be sold to Xue Qing.

When Fu San heard the news, his face was gloomy for a long time. Isn't this stealing his job?

I didn’t mention fish or anything before, but they also wanted it!

With the sound of a gong at the dock, those who had boats at home set out one after another, and those who did not have boats also discussed with those who had boats to go out together.

After all, what can you catch by diving into the sea at the pier?

There are shallows and many reefs.

Boss Fu hadn't originally planned to go out with them, but when he heard about the rule, he immediately took his things and went out with Fu Wan.

Fu Ming was also eager to try. He was thinking of waiting for the competition to be over, but he didn't expect that he would have to go out to sea on a boat!

But he didn't expect that excessive joy would lead to sorrow. Xue Qing was also smart. He was afraid that someone would use the numbers to cheat him out of his money, so he stipulated that only two people from a family could participate.

There was no other way. The Fu family had to let the experienced Boss Fu and Fu Wan, who had to participate, drive the boat out. Fu Ming, Ye Xiaocui and others stayed at the dock to provide support.

Fu Wan stood at the stern of the boat, watching the dock getting farther and farther away. "Dad, the sea is really lively today!"

How could it not be lively? At this moment, the sea is full of ships of all sizes.

Even Xue Qing's boat, which had been repaired somehow, was following closely not far away.

He also told those who were going out to sea today the requirements. No matter whether it was fish or snails, they had to deliver ten kilograms of fish, otherwise they would not get the ten dollars for participating.

When this was said, everyone was already preparing to set sail. Some villagers who usually couldn't catch fish suddenly didn't want to participate, but more people were thinking about that famous Chinese saying.

Come here.

After Boss Fu drove the boat to a sea area within the designated range and where there were not many people, Fu Wan finished warming up and went straight into the water.

Fu Wan hadn't been to the sea for two or three days, and as soon as she got into the water, she felt a lot of fish running around.

She dived down to take a closer look. Perhaps there were too many fishing boats at sea, and the noise attracted many fish to come here.

But she wasn't going to go fishing today.

Pick up some conch or something first.

I'll just catch some fish on the way back and be able to report back.

Boss Fu parked the boat and stood at the stern. The visibility of the sea water was very high, so he could see his daughter lying on the seabed like a fish, and he couldn't help feeling relieved.

He is probably the only one in the area who can thrive in the sea like a fish in water.

Fu Wan picked up a few spider snails and cat's eye snails, and after looking around, she found that there were no giant clams around.

That's good. If she did, she would have to hide these giant clams from being discovered, which would be very troublesome.

When she surfaced and was about to hand the net bag containing the conch to Boss Fu, the noise in the distance suddenly became louder.

At this moment, a sharp cry came from not far away: "Shark! There's a shark!"
