Chapter 1037 Great White Shark Attacks Fishing Boat (Monthly Ticket +11)
Touwei had been idle at home for more than half a month. They were not unable to sit still, but the women in the village were unable to sit still. From time to time, someone asked Ye Mu or asked Aqing why he had not gone to sea recently.
After all, although some trawlers did not go out intermittently because of the rain, they still went out to sea every three days.
For example, the Harvest went out for three days and came back, but his boat kept parked in the middle of the sea, floating without any movement. The women who wanted to make money became anxious.
Lin Xiuqing always used the excuse that she had something to do at home and couldn't get away. In addition, the weather in the sea outside was unpredictable, so she didn't go to sea recently, but if she came back from the sea, she would definitely ask everyone to work.
"This means that the emperor is not in a hurry and the eunuch is in a hurry."
Lying in bed at night, the couple would always whisper a few words in the middle of the night. At this time, the two couples would chat there.
"Working for half a month and taking half a month off, those boatmen are quite happy."
"Don't think so. The sea is very dangerous, and I can't sleep well on the ship. I basically just squint for a while and then get up to work. It's hard."
How can people who have never been there understand it? Ye Yaodong knows how difficult it is for fishermen.
"The weather forecast in the evening says that it will be sunny again tomorrow. It looks like there will be no wind or waves today. All the things we went out to sea are ready. You can take a look tomorrow. If the weather is good and there are no waves, let dad call the other boatmen. ."
"Well, dad went to Uncle Pei's house to discuss it tonight."
"Dad has been going to Uncle Pei's place very frequently recently."
"Do you have any wine to drink? My mother keeps an eye on him at home and won't let him drink too much. After drinking, he will easily become drunk and crazy. He won't sleep and will only brag."
Lin Xiuqing turned to the side and said curiously: "Are you also curious about the progress of Uncle Pei and the widow?"
Ye Yaodong laughed softly, his chest shaking, "It's possible, maybe my mother will send him."
Lin Xiuqing also smiled, "Go to bed early. Stop talking. The more you talk during the conversation, the less likely you are to want to sleep."
"Don't want to sleep."
His hands rubbed back and forth on her back.
Lin Xiuqing pinched him and said, "You've been too busy lately, and you need it every two days."
"Well, there is nowhere to vent my energy. For a strong young man like me, this frequency is normal... Women are like wolves at thirty and tigers at forty..."
She burst into laughter.
"What are you laughing at?"
"Before you laugh, ask the widow her age."
"Then 50 can still absorb dirt while sitting on the ground. Maybe Aguang will really have a younger brother."
Of course he knows whether it’s okay to be 50 years old!
Lin Xiuqing smiled and patted him, "You are gloating about your misfortune."
"No, it's a blessing to have more children. Anyway, his family is also rich. With such a big age difference, of course most of the family property will belong to him in the future. If he does have a younger brother, he will raise him as a son. His father is still here even when he is old. If he works hard there, it won’t be a big deal for him to raise a younger brother in the future.”
These days, there is not much pressure to raise more children, as long as you have a stutter. Even if you get married in the future, it will only be in the early 00s or a few years or so, and the betrothal gifts have not reached sky-high prices.
What's more, half of the country was won by his father for him. If he continues to help, his father's will definitely be basically his.
His mother's worries are completely unfounded. What does the little baby have to do with it? It's not about fighting for the throne.
"Then if you say so, you can have it too."
"How is it possible that a fifty-year-old couple can have nightmares all night after just one kiss?"
Lin Xiuqing was instantly amused by him, and her branches were trembling with laughter.
Ye Yaodong looked at her shock and took action with a smile.
"A dry fire is different from an old married couple. You see, Brother Asheng and his wife have only been married for more than a month and they are pregnant."
"Are you going to laugh me to death?"
"I'm telling the truth."
"Brother Asheng's wife is quite right."
"Well, my mother is pretty good at finding things. By the way, Aguang's eldest sister was given to my mother years ago, but she hasn't arranged it yet?"
"A bunch of people stepped through the door of his house. They all knew that his family would pay a large sum of money in dowry, so all the dirty, smelly and shameless people came to the door. They were already spoiled for choice. They missed it once before and they didn't dare to do it so easily again. We decided on it and took a month or two to choose it. Now there is a young boy chatting there, and we are going to get familiar with it first."
"That's true, blind marriage is not advisable. Who knows whether it is the same on the outside as on the inside."
Lin Xiuqing held his head and nodded seriously, "Indeed, at least we should get along with him for a while, otherwise we will easily fall into the fire pit."
Ye Yaodong grabbed her hard and said, "It's none of my business. I've already let you enjoy it, right?"
"snort!"
"Still humming? Then you can hum some more later..."
Early the next morning, Ye Yaodong got up early. When he woke up, his wife and children were still sleeping beside him.
I have also been recuperating at home for a long time recently. I have rested enough and I feel full of energy.
When he got up, his father was already sitting at the door of the courtyard smoking hookah in the sun.
Seeing him coming out, Father Ye just turned his head and glanced, and then said: "It's calm today and the weather is pretty good. You have a meal and get ready, and then we'll go to sea. I'll call someone to carry all the things." Boat."
"good."
"Why are you still standing there? Go and eat quickly."
"Aren't you still sitting? I'll take it easy."
He twisted his neck and waist while looking at the sea in front of him. The tide had risen, which was just the time for the boat to get out, and then he went to wash up again.
When Lin Xiuqing got up, a group of people were already moving things in the yard and pushing carts out. Those who couldn't be loaded on the carts were carried away.
"Going to sea so soon?"
"Well, hurry up sooner rather than later, the tide has arrived just in time."
Lin Xiuqing looked at the rising tide and the sunny weather, so she didn't say anything. They had originally discussed going to sea today yesterday.
It was early in the morning, and it was deserted outside the pier. The trawlers had already gone out to sea at night. There were not even a few small wooden boats. Everyone was a hard-working person.
When they arrived, Pei's father was already there, and everyone ignored the small talk and took a small boat, loaded their things on it, and then boarded the big boat.
While watching the boatmen move things, Father Ye shouted to Father Pei: "It feels like I've been resting for a long time, my bones are broken, and I still can't be idle."
Father Pei agreed with the same feeling, "Yes, I have been lazy for a while. It is the weather like this. It is hard to predict whether it will be sunny or rainy, and the weather forecast is not accurate. Once we go out, it takes several days to come back. Unlike them, Go out at night and come back during the day.”
"The weather is getting warmer, and a lot of fish are migrating. There have been a lot of bass recently. Let's see how we harvest during this trip."
…
Ye Yaodong didn't care about the two old men chatting. There were so many workers who were not dead. Wherever he was needed to do anything, everyone performed their duties and knew what they were going to do. As soon as he got on the ship, he went to burn incense on the small statue of Mazu. , say goodbye.
I haven’t boarded the ship for more than half a month, and I haven’t prayed. It’s a huge sin.
He also specially brought a few large oranges and placed five of them on the small altar table.
"Good luck and everything goes smoothly!"
After praying, I happened to meet his father when I came out.
"Have you finished burning the incense? Give me the yellow paper after burning the incense. May you be safe and prosperous, and may you have good luck."
Ye Yaodong took a few from the side and handed them to him.
This is a ritual that his father must perform every time he goes to sea. Only after completing the ritual can he go to sea with peace of mind.
If the yellow paper fails to burn, or if it is half burned and stops burning, it will be a big trouble for them. No matter how good the weather is today or how calm the weather is, they will definitely go home directly.
This process is very important.
It's so superstitious.
Fortunately, he had completed this set of procedures, and Uncle Pei next door also followed a set of procedures, and everything was fine. The two boats started one after another and started sailing one after the other.
"Now I will follow you out to sea every day, and I can also perform some rituals for you. In the future, when I can't do it anymore, you have to do it by yourself, and you must not be left behind."
"I know."
"Well, I have been following you every day for the past few years and helping you with work. Although your eldest and second brothers didn't say anything about wages, they probably have some ideas in mind. When the ship of you three brothers is available next year, I will go there. On a boat, you can sail the boat by yourself, and everyone has to help, this is only fair."
"I know, I know, don't be nagging. If you want to stay here, I'll let you steer the ship and I'll stay down there?"
"I'm just saying a few words, I'm so impatient."
"You are too long-winded. You keep talking about things that you have already figured out. Isn't it too late to wait until the boat is in hand?"
"Okay, okay, I won't say anything anymore, then you can sail the boat."
After his ears were clean, Ye Yaodong followed the Harvest out of boredom. After completing a series of tasks including refueling and ice, they set off with all their strength.
Today is a really sunny day. The warm sunshine shines on the sea, shining with golden light. The waves caused by the boat are like sparkling silver in the sun.
They were walking in the direction of the sun. Fortunately, there was glass to block the dazzling light, otherwise he wouldn't be able to see the way ahead clearly.
Seagulls were flying in groups not far away, some spread their wings high on the sea, some were flying on the sea, and some would fly low over their fishing boats from time to time.
Probably their boat was empty. They had just set out to sea, and there was nothing on the deck. The seagulls that flew low for a while, after failing to find their target, probably flew away again in disgust, preparing to fend for themselves, looking for fish floating on the upper surface of the sea. shrimp.
They set off early in the morning, and it was only 11 o'clock when they lowered the nets and started fishing. Each of the boatmen had rested for more than half a month, and they were all very energetic. They were all standing on the deck chatting and laughing along the way, and no one was showing signs of being listless. to the cabin.
After the fishing boat reaches deep enough waters, it starts to lower its nets and continues working toward the East China Sea.
Their two boats were still alone on the sea, and the surroundings were endless. Apart from the sea, not even the islands could be seen.
During offshore trawl fishing, you can occasionally see fishing boats passing by. After they changed to larger boats and moved away to fish, it was really difficult to see a boat.
After everyone finished setting off the net, they still stood on the deck chatting as usual. Although there were a few spring rains one after another and the temperature gradually rose, it would still be cold when the sea breeze blows from the sea. The temperature at sea is lower than on land.
Ye Yaodong was driving the boat all day long. Ye's father chatted and boasted with the boatmen until nightfall, when it was his father who drove the boat.
Today's harvest throughout the day was neither good nor bad, so-so, nothing particularly amazing, but the harvest was not bad. I probably earned back the money I spent on gas and ice today.
We didn't refuel very much today. Our last trip only went out to sea for a day and then came back. There was still more than half of the fuel on the boat, so we saved a little money.
After making an appointment to replace him after 12 o'clock at night, he went back to the cabin and lay down. The quilt that had been exposed to the sun smelled particularly good, and there was no sense of dampness at all.
Sure enough, Chen Shi is more reliable.
He was just half asleep and squinting, but before midnight, he was shaken awake.
"A Dong, A Dong, get up quickly, get up quickly, there is a situation... there is a situation..."
Ye Yaodong was woken up and immediately lifted the quilt and looked at the old boatman who woke him up in panic, "What's wrong? What happened?"
"There are great white sharks! There are two great white sharks following us. Your father doesn't know what to do. He said that you are familiar with these big fish, so he asked us to wake you up quickly and let you feed them something to eat."
He hurriedly put on his shoes, picked up his coat and walked out. When he heard this, he turned his head in confusion, "Ah, you want me to feed the great white shark?"
Feeding himself?
What does his father think he is? What's it like to be a great white shark?
Great white sharks are not like basking sharks or whale sharks. They are vegetarians. They eat meat and can eat humans! ! !
Although it prefers some creatures with relatively high fat content, such as seals, and is not very interested in humans, it will still eat humans when provoked, and it will also attack fishing boats, unlike some other whale sharks So friendly.
"Yes, he said that you have often fed these big fish. He said that these big fish will not attack people. If we don't dare to feed them, let us wake you up and let you come."
"My biological father!"
How dare he do Jaws! ! !
"Listen to my dad's nonsense, great white sharks can eat people! Come and see how big they are?"
As soon as he stepped out of the first deck, he felt the hull of the ship was hit and shook violently. At the same time, he also saw two white figures on the sea. Each one looked five or six meters long and should not be underestimated...
"My dear!"
He was hit so hard that he fell to the side of the ship. He held on to the side of the ship tightly to keep from falling.
At the same time, others also shook, and others hurriedly ran to him, pointing to the two baskets of groceries on the deck.
"Ah Dong, I have prepared two baskets of groceries, are they enough to feed?"
"Is it enough? If it's not enough, let's move it into the cabin..."
At the same time, Father Ye also stood on the helm and shouted at him: "Dongzi, hurry up, hurry up...feed them and let them go quickly. This is too scary, and they also hit the fishing boats..."
Ye Yaodong also had black lines on his face. He looked at his father nervously and shouted loudly: "Hurry up and run away, feed me, this is a great white shark, it eats meat, eats meat!!!"
"What should you feed it? Feed it with me? It will attack boats and people. It is not as docile as other big fish. Run away..."
After Ye Yaodong yelled, his father panicked. He was not too panicked at first, because they had encountered such a big fish more than once, and they had encountered even bigger fish than this.
The sharks are fearless, either feeding them, climbing on them, removing barnacles from them, untangling the fishing nets, or touching them. There was a group of sharks who didn’t know what kind of sharks they were before. The crowd followed them back to the village.
Didn't it work this time?
Father Ye was in a hurry and ran quickly.
The boatmen on the boat also looked at him at a loss.
"Isn't that what your father said?"
"Can't we feed them? If I feed them these two baskets of goods, won't they leave?"
"These are great white sharks, great white sharks, great white sharks! They are not other big fish. It is serious to feed them some dick hair and run away." Ye Yaodong shouted excitedly.
Is he the Buddha? You still call him "Hey."
When Buddha fed the eagle, he just cut off a piece of meat and asked him to feed it to the shark. He had to pay for the whole fish.
"I said this is a very ferocious great white shark. You have to run away quickly. Your father must have said that you have fed this big fish many times. You should have just left after pouring two baskets. If you don't leave, you won't attack us. Let us I’ll wake you up and nothing will happen.”
"My dad really thinks highly of me!"
After the fishing boat was hit by a great white shark, it was not hit again. However, the great white shark did not leave, and also accelerated and swam beside the fishing boat.
After everyone heard that he had nothing to do with the great white shark, everyone became worried, fearing that the two fish would work together to attack the fishing boat, and then they would really have a Barbie attack.
"How long has it been offline?"
"It's almost two hours, you can collect it if you want."
"Then go and ask my dad to collect the net. Don't just run away. Only by collecting the net can you run faster. He really thinks highly of me. He even asked me to feed the Great White Shark."
After a boatman responded, he hurried up the runway to inform Ye's father to set up the net, and the other two people also divided into two to help collect it.
Ye Yaodong also told Chen Shi to stare at the sea, and he also ran to the cockpit.
The gun he brought with him when he went out to sea was placed on the seat under the cockpit, not in the cabin. The cockpit could only be controlled by him and his father. If it was placed there, he would feel more at ease.
Now these two great white sharks are not moving around the fishing boat, and they even hit the fishing boat just now. If they don't have some thermal weapons in their hands, it will be a bit dangerous. These are not docile vegetarian fish like whale sharks or basking sharks.
After he took two 56 and a half and came down, the other boatmen's eyes widened and their hearts instantly calmed down, feeling that they were now safe and secure.
"Gun! Adong brought a gun on board!"
"It's good to have a gun. Now it's better. I'm not afraid of the great white shark anymore..."
"As long as you have a gun..."
"Hurry up and shoot them twice so that they don't dare to follow you again!"
"You can't act haphazardly. If you shoot them twice, they will become anxious. Later, they will attack the fishing boats with all their strength, and they will have to hold us back until death. That will be troublesome. You can't shoot them randomly."
He handed the other gun to Chen Shi with some worry and warned him in every possible way not to shoot without his permission. Otherwise, if one of them is not good enough, instead of driving away the shark, the boat will capsize and everyone will fall into the sea.
"Know...know"
Chen Shi held the gun with both hands so tightly that his fingertips turned white, and he looked at the sea nervously.
