Chapter 1046 Return to Longline Fishing (10,000 Words, Monthly Ticket +20)

After sending the people away, Ye Yaodong stood at the door and watched the children playing and running around for a while. No adults stood at the door. Most of them stayed at home at night, and some went to sea at night, so they all went to bed early. , he also went back to the house.

Lin Xiuqing and the old lady were fascinated by watching TV. They could discuss a few words about the plot, but no one turned to look at him.

Ye Yaodong went to the empty room on the first floor, opened the boxes of canned fish again, and counted them.

There were originally 73 boxes in total, with 5 cans of caviar in each box. After repacking, there were seven boxes left, which equals 355 cans.

In addition, he also has a box on hand, which was salvaged together with the box in Director Chen's hand and kept privately. There are also 5 cans in it.

However, one can was opened when Lin Ji was inspecting the goods, and the goods would definitely have to be inspected when the goods were delivered in the evening. These five cans were kept for now and were not counted.

One can is worth 10 yuan, so 355 cans can be sold for 3,550 yuan.

This calculation is not bad, it is better than nothing, better than wasting it on oneself. With so much, he will have to eat it until the year of the monkey, vomit it, and eat it until it expires.

After calculating it again, he came out satisfied.

All in all, this batch of goods caught can really be sold for 10,000 yuan, which is a profit.

Lower your desires, lower your expectations, don't think about how much others can earn, just count your own gains, and you will be much happier.

In a good mood, he sat next to the two women and watched TV together.

"Why are you shaking your legs? Why are you happy?"

"I'm glad I'm going to make money again soon."

"Then we should save some squid for drying when the time comes?"

When Lin Xiuqing heard him say that he needed to make money again, he understood that it was going to be the squid flood season again, so it was true that he needed to make money again.

"Yes, if you want dry goods, of course you have to buy all the varieties, but the price is high at the beginning. Wait about five or six days later, and then reserve the goods. The cuttlefish sold very well last year, and the price can be increased a little this year. .”

"Well, it just so happens that our big ship hasn't gone out to sea, and the workshops have been empty recently. Many people have been asking me when the ship will be repaired."

"I'll take some time tomorrow to call the shipyard and ask."

"Didn't you just ask Ah Hai? What did he say?"

"It's said that the factory is rushing to meet the delivery deadline and can only free up a master and an apprentice to repair it. It's not that fast. What's more, we have three boats repaired together. I'll make a call tomorrow and ask them to repair the captured ones first. That one."

"Then when you go out to sea tomorrow morning, remember to bring your hand-thrown net. There are five of them. You can bring them as you like. If it's not enough, I'll buy some netting cables and come back in a few days and weave two more by myself. Anyway, my boat doesn't have enough. Once it’s repaired, the workshop won’t be busy and you can just do it yourself instead of asking others to do it.”

The hand-thrown nets on the big ship are not far away from being scrapped. I mentioned it to her some time ago and asked her to arrange to weave a few nets and put them there for later use. Now that it is the flood season, it is just in time to use them.

"I know, I'll take it and put it on the cart first so as not to forget it."

Lin Xiuqing also stood up and followed him out.

After preparing all the things he would take on board the ship tomorrow, Ye Yaodong also went to sleep in the unused room on the first floor early.

He couldn't stand the noise of the two little guys, and he had to get up at night to get caviar for Lin Jishang, so it was best to sleep in this room alone.

Fortunately, Lin Xiuqing had finished getting ready today, made the bed, and the bedding still smelled like sunshine.

With something else on his mind, Ye Yaodong also woke up intermittently. He had made an appointment from ten to twelve o'clock, and he estimated that he should arrive around ten o'clock.

It's not quite hot yet, let alone 10 o'clock, at 8 o'clock the village is almost quiet and deserted, and even the children of each family have been taken home to sleep.

After sleeping for several times, when the time came to early 10 o'clock, he immediately got up, quietly opened the door and went out, trying to keep the sound of opening the door to a minimum to reduce the squeaking sound.

Then he sat alone at the gate of the yard, smoking quietly and waiting. Looking at the dark sea and the rolling waves, he thought about the huge typhoon this year, but he had a vague impression that it did not directly impact them. Here, however, it has also been greatly affected.

The main reason is that the current houses are relatively old and dilapidated. Some old people live in houses that are no better than pig pens. Even a slightly stronger typhoon can blow away the roof.

If the house were like the one in the future, there would be nothing to be afraid of. Typhoons in general can only be regarded as drizzle. When a super typhoon comes, there is nothing to be afraid of as long as the doors and windows are closed.

After thinking for a while, he couldn't figure out which month it was, so he simply stopped thinking about it. Anyway, if the soldiers came to block it, the water came to cover it, so it would be better if he didn't face the attack directly.

He sat at the entrance of the courtyard for a while, and sure enough, at just 10:30, he saw a black figure in the distance pushing a cart over, and the sound of the axle grunting was particularly harsh in the silent night.

Fortunately, there was the sound of the waves, which rolled from time to time, covering up the sound of the wheel shaft turning.

"I thought I had to knock on the door when I came over, but I didn't expect you to be quite on time."

"I thought you were at this point last time, so I calculated the time and got up."

"Push it in directly or leave it at the door?"

"Put it at the door. There are only 7 boxes in total. The sound of your axle turning is a bit loud at night. If you want to push it into the yard, the elderly at home will probably get up. I will just go in and move it out."

"oh."

General Lin Ji put the car at the door, followed him in, and then stopped in the yard, waiting for him to move out.

When the dog at his feet came in from Lin Jishang, it immediately pricked up its ears and circled around him. Its nose sniffed back and forth at the trousers, and then shook the hair on its body.

Before entering the house, Ye Yaodong also turned around and lowered his voice, reminding the dogs to go back to their kennels before moving the boxes.

But no matter how gentle and cautious he was, he still disturbed the old lady in the next room.

As people get older, they sleep less, and her ears are very sharp. When there is any disturbance at night, she feels like a thief. She immediately sits up alertly and quietly looks out the window.

Obviously Dongzi was going to sea early the next morning, not tonight. Where was the movement at this night?

Under the moonlight, I really saw a dark figure, and the courtyard door was still open. After a while, I saw someone from home walking into the courtyard carrying a large box of things.

The two exchanged words secretly, and then the sound of heavy objects falling on the trolley was also heard by the old lady with sharp ears.

Her first reaction was that there were two thieves who were moving things. She was so panicked that she didn't know what to do. She walked around the room, but only one crutch could be used.

She quietly opened the door a little, and the main room was dark. Then she heard the sound of moving things in the room where dried fish was stored next door, and she suddenly felt nervous and panicked.

She moved two steps lightly and raised the crutch in her hand. Suddenly, she suddenly thought that A Qing had wiped the bed in this room and made it. Dongzi slept these days to avoid being disturbed by the children.

The old lady held the crutch high and slowly lowered it. She thought that this was not the first time that Ye Yaodong had been sneaky in the middle of the night. She was worried that it was him again. After all, he slept in this room at night. How could a thief get into the room? And don't know.

She was afraid of scaring someone in the middle of the night and worried that it might be a thief, so she didn't dare to speak out.

After only hesitating for a moment, Ye Yaodong had already moved another box of goods out. When he walked to the door, he saw a dark figure standing by the door. He was startled immediately, and a box of cans in his hand was directly smashed into the door. He threw it.

"Oh, my God, no, it's my ancestor. Why are you up here so late at night and scaring me?"

"Oh, it's okay, it's okay..." The old lady quickly reached out and patted his chest several times.

"I heard some movement in the middle of the night, and I got up to take a look uneasy, but I was afraid of scaring you, so I kept silent. I wanted to see if it was you or a thief."

"Who told you not to do anything during the day if you have something to do all day long, but to work there in the middle of the night from time to time? I thought you were really being robbed, why didn't you even turn on the light?"

Ye Yaodong glared at her angrily, then pulled the power cord, looked at the scattered cans thrown to him on the ground, and squatted down to pick them up one by one.

Lin Jishang heard the movement in the room, turned on the light again, and walked in, "What's wrong?"

"I was almost scared to death. I stood at the door with the lights on. It was scary. It would really scare people to death."

Lin Xiuqing also heard the sound of heavy objects falling to the ground outside, as if something had been knocked over. She also saw the light outside through the crack in the door, so she put on her coat and opened the door to take a look.

"It's late at night, what are you doing if you don't sleep?"

"You all go to bed. He wants to buy dried fish and will leave early tomorrow morning. I have to go to sea early in the morning and am not free, so he came over at night to move the goods. I will give him these cans by the way." Ye Yaodong was half serious. He said half-falsely.

"I came here to move the goods in the middle of the night. I thought someone was standing in the yard. It was so dark that I couldn't see anyone and the lights weren't turned on..." The old lady muttered.

"It's only 10 o'clock, it's already midnight. Go to bed."

Lin Xiuqing looked at the caviar all over the floor and understood. The canned fish were all sold out, and these would only be caviar. I had heard him mention it before, and he would see if he wanted it when he came back.

You don't make a sound when you move at night. It doesn't matter if you turn on the light secretly, so as not to scare your own people.

"Have you finished moving? Do you want help?"

"No, we can just move it by ourselves. You can go to sleep."

Lin Xiuqing was worried that people would feel uncomfortable seeing them around, so she went back to the room first, planning to question them again after they left.

The old lady also returned to the room slowly, turning back three times at a time.

Ye Yaodong also picked up a box of goods scattered on the ground and handed it to Lin Jishang, "Sure enough, I still have a guilty conscience. If I had known better, I would have turned on the light directly, so I wouldn't have to worry about any movement."

"I don't feel guilty, it's you who feel guilty."

"Okay, okay, I feel guilty. There are only a few boxes of goods in total. Please hurry up and finish moving. You can look through them and open two cans."

"You're going to fool me?"

"How is that possible? I am an honest person."

"Then I'll take a look at it when I get back."

He had no reason to fool around, and he wasn't really short of money. He could still give him this little trust.

"Okay, let's add 7 boxes in total, and add 10 cans here and there, for a total of 360 cans, with a benefit of 3,600 yuan."

Originally, I kept 5 cans without counting them and wanted to leave them for him to make up for after random inspections. Now that I won’t do random inspections, of course I still sell them to him to calculate the money!

If you go back and check and open it again, it won't be counted as his!

Anyway, Lin Ji has earned so much, so he can earn less with him. He has less money, so he can earn more.

"OK."

Lin Jishang was also very straightforward. He took out the money from several pockets on his body, counted it twice, and then handed him 3,600.

Ye Yaodong watched him tap it lightly, so he didn't need to order it anymore. He put it directly in his pocket and said with a smile: "Thank you very much. I won't send it away if I take my time."

"Don't you want to count them again?"

"You know how to cheat?"

"Won't."

"That's fine then."

"Um."

Lin Jishang waved to him, then looked around, then pushed the cart away.

Ye Yaodong also shook off the banknotes in his hand, closed the courtyard door, then closed the door, turned off the lights, and returned to the storage room to lie down.

Just when he closed his eyes, the door opened again.

"Aqing?"

"it's me."

Lin Xiuqing groped her way to the bed, but Ye Yaodong grabbed her hand and pulled her to the bed. There was a heavy sound from the old-fashioned canopy bed.

"What are you doing……"

"Want some money?"

She smiled and said, "How much did those caviar cost?"

"Serve me well, and everything will be yours."

Ye Yaodong became familiar with Yuanyuan.

"I haven't taken good care of you yet. I treat you like an ancestor."

"I don't feel it. Please be more sincere."

"Stop making trouble, tell me how much it sold for?"

He freed his hand and touched under the pillow. A large handful of money shook a few times in front of her eyes, and then quickly retracted it when she reached out.

"Hey~ It's yours to behave well."

"You're going to die." Lin Xiuqing slapped him twice.

"I want to live, I want to be happy, hurry up and do your best."

"Get out of here, put it away, there's no way you can put so much money in this room."

Ye Yaodong raised his hand just out of her reach. When she turned over, he quickly stuffed the money under the pillow, put his head on the pillow and looked at her with a smile.

"Come on, there are thousands of dollars, I can't wrong you."

"I'm going to die. What do you think I am?"

"Honey, everything I have is yours, hurry up, I don't even bother to raise my eyes to other women, hurry up."

Lin Xiuqing moved to pull the pillow, but his hands pressed it on the pillow so tightly that she couldn't move it at all.

"Be obedient and fulfill your duties as a wife, and I will give you everything."

"I'll get it directly when you go to sea tomorrow."

"Then I won't take it out to sea."

Lin Xiuqing pinched him and said, "Don't be so harsh."

"Don't be harsh, here is Y..."

Ye Yaodong grabbed her little hand xx?

"Are you annoyed? It's so late...and you're still in this room..."

He coaxed softly, "Then if you want to go out, you can do it outside..."

"don't want…"

The couple were talking in whispers, and the waves outside the house were rolling violently, one after another. When the waves hit, they also roared, and the treetops rustled in the wind.

The waves on the shore rolled to the highest point, then slowly fell down. They rose and fell calmly for a few times, and then rolled and roared heavily.

In the silent night, the sound of the waves is particularly clear.

Ye Yaodong lay on the bed like a dead fish, not wanting to move.

"Dead man, get out of the car and let me get off."

"You don't sleep here."

"Those two children are so young, how can we let them sleep by themselves? They sleep so badly that they have to touch where they slept in the middle of the night. What if they roll out of bed in the middle of the night? I have to sleep on the side and watch. .”

Another point is that she is also afraid that when she walks out of this house in the early morning, her father and mother Ye will see her and make a joke. She can't even stay away for one night and has to crawl over to sleep here. How embarrassing. ah.

Ye Yaodong didn't force it. Anyway, he felt better. He would feel better sleeping alone later. Anyway, the weather was hot and the bed was not cold.

He also kept his promise. When she got out of bed, he took out a large amount of money from under the pillow and handed it to her.

"To reward you, you performed very well just now. Keep working hard in the future."

Lin Xiuqing took the money, glared at him, and cooperated with the role play, "The price will increase next time."

"Fuck! Do you know how much it costs here?"

"Hmph, you think it's free? I want to play this kind of game with you."

"This is called fun."

"So the price will increase next time."

Lin Xiuqing pinched him before leaving, and then left happily, closing the door gently.

Ye Yaodong murmured a few curse words, "It costs several thousand yuan at a time. Even the Sleeping Immortal is enough. Where can I earn it?"

From now on, you must not collect all the accounts from the shops in the city and those who have returned from overseas, and then hand them over to her, so that you can sleep with them once? Otherwise, I won’t be able to sleep at home.

Damn it, he pulled the quilt over his shoulders, didn't put on any pants, just closed his eyes and went to sleep.

He worked so hard at night that he almost got up late in the morning, but it was his father who knocked on the door and pushed the door open that made him wake up.

He hurriedly put on his clothes and went to sea together.

Fortunately, he put all the things away last night, so there was no need to rush to get ready this morning. He just had a simple breakfast, pushed the cart and went out to sea.

What surprised him was that when he went to the area around Oarfish Island, he found that someone had already thrown branches into the sea, and there were quite a lot of them. He obviously hadn't seen this when he came to visit the spot yesterday, but his longline was still fishing. Put it not far away.

"Dongzi, we haven't been here for several months. It's probably been occupied by someone else. Someone has already placed branches around here first, either yesterday or tonight. Do we want to search again?"

"Where should we look for it at this time? Let's sail around the island and take a look first."

He had some guesses that it might have been Azheng Xiaoxiao.

Last year, he took their two boats to place branches around here, and they hadn't gone to sea for a few months. They definitely couldn't let anyone else take this spot.

After going around in a circle, his guess was confirmed. The area around the island that he occupied last year had been set aside, and the area occupied by the two of them last year had been filled with branches.

"It's as I thought. It should be the branches placed by my two friends. Let's put them here. It doesn't matter."

"are you sure?"

"It should probably be 80%. If you don't worry, let's collect the longline first, and then hang the bait again after collecting it, and then come over and put in branches. It will probably be noon by then, so they should also Come and take a look at the situation."

"That's okay too."

Father Ye drove to the buoy not far away, and Ye Yaodong continued to cut the bait.

He stopped when he arrived at the place. He skillfully collected the buoy first, and then pulled the hook. He hadn't put out a longline for a long time, and his luck was still as good as before.

After three or four hooks were empty at the beginning, a bass weighing more than three kilograms was immediately picked up, and several more were picked up one after another, each weighing at least two kilograms.

The sea bass in spring was plump and the spring fish was also very fresh and tender. Many of them were caught one after another. These were all good fish. Father Ye was so happy that he beamed with joy.

"Hey, we even caught squid. It's really almost the flood season."

Ye Yaodong untied the squid hanging from the hook and pinched its belly. He wanted to see if there were any roes in its belly and whether the roes had been discharged, but he forgot for a moment that it spit black ink from its mouth.

With a loud sound, a stream of ink sprayed all over his face, more than he sprayed last night.

Fortunately, he was wearing a hat, and the sun visor on his face was completely black. His eyes were also sprayed, but at least his face was not sprayed all over.

"Don't be careful. You know it will spray ink."

After Father Ye finished speaking, he took the squid in his hand and pinched his stomach. Unexpectedly, there was still ink in his stomach, and he sprayed it in his face again.

Now it was Ye Yaodong's turn to laugh at his father.

"You knew there was ink inside, but you still squeezed it. I've just been sprayed."

Father Ye wiped his face and it became darker.

"I thought I was done spraying."

"There is nothing in this stomach. She should have ovulated. It seems that the flood season is only for these two days."

Father Ye threw it into the basket on the side. There were already a lot of fish in them, distinguishing the good from the bad.

Except for the sea bass, which is put into a separate basket, because there is so much goods, the others are only distinguished by value. If the quantity is large, we can just sort them separately on the return trip.

There are 100 hooks in a row in Yanshen fishing, and the hit rate is about 1/3. There are both big and small fish. Some hooks have bait hanging on them, and some hooks have no bait on them, probably because they were caught by fish. Some fish escaped, and some fish on the hook were half eaten by other big fish, and some only had half left.

Basically all I caught were fish, except for the squid just now.

It took two rows of longline fishing to catch such a squid. If we fished again later, we would see a few more one after another. They were all caught by hanging shrimp bait. Other baits are larger and cannot catch squid. .

After they collected one row, they also moved the fishing boat forward. There were a total of 20 baskets of longlines, but they were not that fast to collect, and some fish were still very active and could only struggle.

When stroking the line, Ye Yaodong pulled out the line, picked fish, replenished bait, and then put the fishing line into the water to continue working.

If there is any damage, he will skip it directly. As long as the hooks still account for the majority, he will not take it back. It is too troublesome. If he takes it back, he will have to rearrange it. He will take it back when more hooks are repaired.

But when he was collecting it, he clearly saw a two-pound transparent squid hanging on the next hook. But before he could collect it, a big fish suddenly jumped up, opened its bloody mouth, and directly took the whole fish. All the squids were swallowed.

"Fuck..."

In the blink of an eye, the fish pulled on the hook and tried to run away. The dropped line in Ye Yaodong's hand was pulled forward and kept sliding forward from the palm of his hand.

He didn't care about talking, and quickly tightened the fishing line. However, his body was pulled forward by the impact of the fish, so he had to wrap his hand a few more times and tighten the fishing line.

This is using bait to catch big fish!

Father Ye also saw the big fish that had just jumped out of the water, and tightened the hand net in his hand.

"Ouch, I was so startled that it ran away before I even reacted. You should put in your fishing line."

"I know, prepare yourself. If you get it later, remember to catch it with a hand net. It's a small tuna and it's not that easy to catch."

When he collected the fish, his father always had a hand net and other tools ready by the side, just in case the fish was still very active and easy to escape when the fish was hooked, and also to prevent swallowing the hook, it was necessary Use scissors or a wooden stick with a hook to make it easier to collect the goods.

"I know, I'm getting ready. Hurry up and collect yours."

Father Ye stretched his neck and looked at the sea. He had just collected three or four rows of fish, and the fish that was trying to catch their fish halfway was the biggest.

Unexpectedly, one of them was caught catching what they caught on their fish hooks. Fortunately, the fish hooks they used were relatively thick, just to catch big fish.

The value of larger fish is of course higher than that of smaller ones.

Ye Yaodong pulled the fishing line in his hand, and the thin white fishing line strangled the palm of his hand tightly. Fortunately, he always wore gloves and was not afraid of the fishing line cutting into his flesh. However, as the little golden gun struggled, his hand The thread became tighter and tighter, but it still cut into the flesh.

Collecting fish in this way is no different from fishing with a hand line.

"Shall I help you?"

Father Ye watched him follow the fish and pull back and forth, but he didn't pull the fish close for a long time. From time to time, he would loosen the line in his palm and let the fish go. He was also anxious, worried that his hand was hurting because of the line.

Ye Yaodong gritted his teeth and pulled, "No, you wait on the side. It's so easy to catch such a big fish. It's almost done. We'll catch it in a while. You take the stick and prepare to hook the fish's gills later." Stop and pull us up together."

The thief is energetic.

The half-way Jiehu who could have just emerged from the water ran away as soon as he encountered him. It was not easy to catch him up.

And according to the figure that was exposed on the sea when he just escaped, it looked like it weighed more than forty pounds. He was not so anxious, so he just pulled it and waited for it to lose its strength before bringing it back to him.

This is the biggest fish I saw today.

The mermaid battle kept going on and on, and Father Ye could only stretch his neck to watch. He kept moving back and forth, and it took him almost 20 minutes to get the fish out of control and pull it to him.

The sweat on his body was pulled out.

Father Ye also watched with joy. When the fish reached the side of the boat, they were still floating back and forth on the sea, as if they had lost all their strength, but they could still flick their tails to hit the water from time to time.

He saw the target and swam in front of him, directly held one end of the wooden stick, and used the hook on the other end to pierce the fish's gills, and then let it struggle fiercely for a while, and then slowly lifted it against the hull of the boat. Come up.

When the fish's head emerged from the edge of the boat, he hugged the fish's head and threw the fish to the deck with a lot of force.

"It took me a long time to finally catch this fish."

"You bleed it to prevent the meat from becoming sour. I will continue to collect it."

"good."

Father Ye threw the tool in his hand to his feet, then raised his knife and finished the fish first. This one is a small golden gun and must be bled. This fish is usually used more for sashimi. If it is left for a long time without bleeding, the meat will be damaged. It will be sour immediately.

Ye Yaodong shook his stretched arm, and then continued to receive the goods.

Because the hook is thicker, the fish caught are at least one pound, and larger fish or squid can also be caught.

Not long after this, he saw another big squid weighing two or three kilograms. It seemed that this year's squids were very plump. He had already seen several such big ones.

Maybe the small ones have been screened out and cannot be hung on the hook.

"Hey hey hey, blue..."

After a while, his heart, which had been numb and calm, immediately became energetic again.

Father Ye was also excited, "Is it possible that it's Dong Xingban?"

"It's possible, or maybe it's a small squid. They're both good fish. Let me catch it and take a look. This fish is also very active and pulls very hard."

Eastern Star Spots are not only red, but also blue. Of course, red ones are more popular than blue ones. After all, everyone likes festive colors, and red Eastern Star Spots are also more expensive than blue ones.

He flipped the fishing line around his wrist a few times and pulled hard. The blue fish also jumped out of the water. It looked quite ferocious, and it could still be so vigorous in its dying struggle.

"It doesn't seem to be Eastern Star Spot."

"Put it up and take a look."

If you don't look so carefully in the sea, you may make misjudgments. You will know after you collect them.

Ye Yaodong pulled for a while before slowly sliding the fish to him. He didn't know when the hook was bit, it must not have been long, otherwise, it wouldn't have been so laborious to catch it.

"It's Swallowtail Spot."

"right."

Both father and son looked at the tail and recognized it. The fish's tail was forked, like a swallow's tail, and the swallow's tail looked like scissors.

The colors of Eastern star spots include bright red, blue, and brown, but the most important thing is that there are many blue spots on the head and body. The biggest feature is that there is a nearly complete blue ring around the eye frame.

The swallowtail spot also comes in red and blue, and it is named because it has a forked tail like a swallow. This is also the main difference between it and the eastern star spot.

If you want to tell the difference, looking at the tail is the most intuitive way, so when they came closer, both father and son could see clearly what kind of fish it was.

"This fish is also a grouper, and it's also valuable. This one weighs about two kilograms."

"Well, I have to bleed it too."

Ye Yaodong collected the fish with satisfaction, then threw it aside and asked his father to bleed it.

"Good luck today."

"You've always had good luck."

"That's true."

"Hurry up and collect the ones at the back. We haven't collected many yet. It's almost 9 o'clock."

"It took a long time to get out of the boat, and we also walked around the island."

He estimated that by the time he had collected all the longlines and hung up the baits and put them down, it would probably be noon, and the other two boats would probably come over to see the condition of the branches.

Hook up and put down one hook after another.

There were no top-quality fish or big fish to be seen in the back, so it wasn't that hard to catch them. Only the occasional fish that were bigger and more active took some effort, but the catches were all smooth, and the hook didn't get lost halfway.

When he had collected almost all the goods and was down to the last line, a small dot appeared at the end of the coastline, and it got bigger and bigger. It was a fishing boat.

He looked up and quickly collected the remaining goods. By the time the fishing boat arrived, he would probably have collected almost all of the goods.

While reeling in the fishing line, he was always paying attention to the fishing boats coming from far away. From a distance, he couldn't tell whose boat it was. All the trawlers looked basically the same, except for the markings on the hull. This required getting closer. to be able to see it.

But when he got closer, he probably saw the people on the boat.

Father Ye also saw it.

"He is really your friend and his father."

"Yes, I said it should be them. Last year they occupied this island with me. There is no reason to hand it over to others this year. I am not a fool to look for it elsewhere."

If he hadn't encountered pirates on his return trip and damaged the ship while fighting the pirates and towed it for repairs, he would probably have given up on the Squid's flood season this year just like the Harvest.

After all, trapping squid with branches is around the island. The water level in the area will be shallower. If the big ship gets close, it will run aground and it will be difficult to move at all.

You can also try your luck when trawling offshore to haul in a lot of passing squid, and the harvest will probably not be too bad.

And because he had damaged the fishing boat and had it repaired because of fighting pirates, everyone in the village probably knew that this new boat had returned, and the news had spread throughout the village. They knew with their unintelligent minds that he would definitely take advantage of the opportunity again. Let’s take a look at this year’s squid season.

After the boat over there waved its flag to warn them, and then came closer, Azheng's voice immediately came over loudly.

"Dongzi, I knew you were the one who set the longline here."

"Why are you so smart?"

He smiled brightly and proudly, hooked the side of Ye Yaodong's boat with a long bamboo pole, and put the two beds together to make it easier for them to talk.

"I'm smart, I know it after thinking about it with my butt, so I discussed it with the two little ones and vacated for you the area on the island that you occupied last year."

"I just came over and saw it, but I was a little unsure, so I took in the longline first. Have you just finished dragging the net?"

"Yeah, I thought I would take a break at noon, have a meal by the way, and come over to see how the squids are being trapped on the branches. Although my father said that there are not many noctilucans in the past two days, the flood season should have just begun, and it will take two days to get the goods. There will be more, and it is a waste of time to wait here. It is better to drag a few more nets. But throw them out early and prepare early, and you can collect more squid eggs by then."

"Well, I'll be fine here soon."

“How was your longline haul?”

"It's pretty good. There are a lot of bass. I just caught a small golden gun and a swallowtail spot."

"Then you are very lucky. My dad also said that spring is coming and there are more bass. We have hauled a few nets at night and there are quite a lot of bass, weighing over a hundred pounds. Today's harvest will be good based on this bass. "

"You put the branches in yesterday, right? I was here last night, but I haven't seen them yet."

"When we were going back last evening, we came here to put down the branches. We also saw the buoy floating here, and thought it should be you. When will your boat be repaired?"

"I don't know yet. There is no definite news yet. I have to wait. Fortunately, it happens to be the squid season, so I won't lose money and I can still make money."

"My dad was there two days ago and said that your luck is so good. Even if the boat breaks down, you can still make money and catch up with the flood situation. The bad weather is just right."

Azheng's father immediately said angrily: "Nonsense, what does it mean to be just bad enough? Can you talk? Those who don't know think I'm hoping that their ship will break."

"You're not wrong. It's really just the right amount of badness, and it didn't delay anything."

"Okay, don't hinder others from receiving the goods here. Let's go there to check the situation first, and you can cook quickly by the way."

"I don't want it, I can't. You cook, and I'll sail the boat."

After Azheng's father scolded him, he pushed the boat away and handed it to him to drive, and then went to heat the food honestly.

There is a reason why a person is spoiled. There are always spoiled parents, otherwise there would be no spoiled children.

After Ye Yaodong watched their fishing boat slowly leave, he also pulled up the last few hooks and took a look. He replenished the bait when it was time to replenish the bait, and received the goods when they needed to be replenished.

Father Ye also smiled there and said: "In the past two years, I saw him hanging out with you all day long, relying on the four sisters at home for everything. In the past two years, he looks quite decent."

"Isn't that right? It's my teachings that are better."

"Stop putting money on yourself, I have a biological father."

"My own father didn't teach people well in the past twenty years. After I made money this year, they also became more positive, so it's all thanks to me."

"It's good that things have gotten better, otherwise I won't know who will support whom when I get old."

"He has four Voldemort sisters, and his life is very easy. What a pity, why didn't you give me more sisters?"

"That's okay. We already have an old guy at home who behaves indiscriminately every day. It's already enough. If you add four more sisters, what will happen to you?"

"It would take about seven sisters to reach heaven."

"Hurry up and work, don't talk nonsense. It's a pity that they are not allowed to have more children now. It seems that his family only has one son, right? He only gave birth to a granddaughter. I don't know what kind of evil he has committed. He is not allowed to have more children. Let's go to sea. Our fishermen have to have more sons, one is of no use, two are considered too few, three are just so-so, four or five are enough, it’s all nonsense.”

"Stop complaining, let's go and cook. It's all done. You're still standing here, looking at it for a long time, and you don't know how to go cook first. My father just ran to cook, so why don't you? Stay here."

Father Ye shook his head, "Okay."

Ye Yaodong was very satisfied when he looked at the harvest of several baskets behind him. Today, he should be able to sell dozens of these goods alone. He has been busy all morning.
