Chapter 42 The Cool Person

"Did you catch all these fish?"

Chen Shiying was a little surprised to see the fish swimming in the bucket.

How could she not know that she was her own sister? She had never fished before, so it was lucky that she didn't feed herself to the fish.

As for the fish in the bucket, they must have been caught by Zhou Ziwen.

But she didn't know that although fishing requires technique, it requires more luck.

If you are lucky, even if you can't, fish will come to your door.

Chen Qiaoyi is an example. She is so lucky that even Zhou Ziwen envies her.

Most of the fish in the bucket were caught by Chen Qiaoyi.

Of course, Zhou Ziwen also contributed a lot, for example, he was mostly responsible for finishing the club.

"Yes, sister, we are awesome, aren't we!" Chen Qiaoyi proudly showed off to her sister.

"No matter how good you are, you're not the best." Chen Shiying rolled her eyes in annoyance, then urged, "Let's go home and eat first, and then we can go fishing later."

"OK."

"yes."

Zhou Ziwen and Chen Qiaoyi happily carried the buckets home.

As for the fishing rod, just leave it by the river for now. You will have to come back later anyway.

Zhou Ziwen found that fishing was quite interesting, especially when he had a good catch. The sense of satisfaction and accomplishment made him feel addicted.

"It seems that I have the potential to become a fisherman!" Zhou Ziwen thought complacently.

If he wasn't afraid of delaying his meal, he would have walked around the village with the bucket in his hand, showing off and experiencing the joy of a fisherman.

There is still meat in today's dinner. Although half a pressed duck is not much, it is enough to satisfy my craving.

Up to now, the only meat left from the meal sent from home is half a pig's trotter and a pressed duck.

After dinner, Zhou Ziwen and Chen Qiaoyi prepared to continue fishing by the river, but as soon as they went out, they were stopped by Chen Yang.

"Brother Zhou, seeing you two as a couple is really enviable." Chen Yang said with a smile.

In fact, everyone in the Youth League Institute was very surprised that Zhou Ziwen and Chen Qiaoyi were dating.

After all, marriage is a serious matter, and dating is the beginning of marriage. Generally speaking, you will not break up.

If we break up, our reputation will be bad in the future.

The reason for the surprise was that they came from different places. Zhou Ziwen was from Beijing, and the Chen sisters were from Hangzhou.

The two of them are so far apart, and if they can return to the city one day, it is questionable whether they can still be together.

Therefore, the educated youth who went to the countryside rarely had a partner. Even if they could not make a living there, they would marry a local rural person or directly marry into the local family. There were very few relationships between educated youth.

"Haha, Brother Chen, don't be envious. You can also find a partner to get married!" Zhou Ziwen said with a smile.

"I'll forget it." Chen Yang smiled bitterly. He was still thinking about returning to the city, otherwise he wouldn't have been so active in becoming the captain of the male educated youth team.

"Let's get down to business! Today the secretary told us that a group of educated youth will arrive tomorrow and asked us to be prepared to welcome them."

"Oh, you're here so soon?" Zhou Ziwen raised his eyebrows.

"Yes, according to the custom of our Youth House, we will have a meal together and get to know each other. You and Chen Zhiqing, although not in the Youth House, are also members of the Youth House. We discussed it and came here to ask for your opinions."

Chen Yang explained the purpose of his visit.

"A dinner party!" Zhou Ziwen and Chen Qiaoyi looked at each other and showed an interested look.

A few days ago, they were still talking about how there would be a lot of fun when the new educated youth arrived! I didn't expect to receive an invitation so soon.

Being able to watch the live broadcast is definitely more exciting than listening to someone else’s narration.

Thinking of this, they both nodded at the same time.

"We have no objection. We will arrive on time tomorrow. We should share the food, right? I'll give you as much as you need." Zhou Ziwen said.

"There's no rush. We'll figure it out when the time comes." Chen Yang laughed.

After chatting with Chen Yang for a while, Zhou Ziwen said goodbye to him. His fishing rod was still by the river. It would be bad if someone picked it up after a long time.

However, their house has a wide view and they can see the river at a glance, so they are not afraid of being picked up by others.

Together with Chen Qiaoyi, they came to the river and continued fishing.

Not long after, Chen Shiying, who had cleaned up the dishes, also arrived.

She was very curious about how the two of them fished.

After all, fish is also meat. If you can catch more, it can also supplement the body's nutrition.

Seeing that her sister was interested in fishing, Chen Qiaoyi enthusiastically taught her the skills, but in fact she was also a layman and her fishing skills were just so-so.

But fishing is actually very simple. It is nothing more than staring at the float and pulling it up when there is a fish biting.

Of course, there are also more advanced techniques, such as choosing the fishing environment, the timing of hooking, the choice of bait, the depth of fishing hook, etc.

Not only the Chen sisters, but even Zhou Ziwen doesn't understand these techniques.

Although he knew this knowledge, he didn't know how to do it and was just a giant in theory.

Fortunately, he had the AFK panel again. After a night of AFK and practicing in the afternoon, his proficiency had improved a lot.

Fishing Level 0 (43/50)

At the current rate of progress, my fishing skill will be able to reach level one after tonight.

Level one, although it is only for beginners, is also considered an entry level, and you will not get nothing every time you fish.

In the future, as his level increases, his fishing skills will get better and better, and he will be able to support himself and the Chen sisters just by fishing.

Perhaps their luck had run out, and for the next while, they didn't catch any fish. Until it was almost dark, the three of them had only caught five fish in total, and they were all small ones.

"It's great to be able to catch fish. Together with what we caught just now, it's enough for us to have a meal tomorrow." Chen Shiying comforted.

"Okay, let's continue fishing tomorrow." Zhou Ziwen stretched.

After tonight, his fishing skills will be upgraded. If he fails to catch anything today, he can try again tomorrow.

With his skills, he will never have to worry about not having fish to eat in the future, and he will only worry about getting tired of it.

The next day, Zhou Ziwen woke up from his sleep.

The first thing I do when I wake up is to open the auto-switch panel.

Fishing Level 1 (5/100)

Sure enough, the fishing skill has been upgraded to level one.

At the same time, Zhou Ziwen discovered that there were many more fishing skills in his mind. Although they were not advanced, he had gotten started. He was no longer a layman like before.

Feeling the fishing techniques in his mind, Zhou Ziwen was in a good mood and ate two more corn buns in the morning.

When they arrived at the production team, Zhou Ziwen met up with Master Chen.

After starting work today, they did not go to the quarry immediately.

After two days of work, the stonemasons' chisels were a little worn and needed to be forged and polished.

The method of grinding is also very simple. Burn a pile of coal, then put the chisel blade in the coal pile to calcine it. When it is red, hammer it with a hammer to make the chisel sharp again.

However, forging requires very high temperatures, so bellows are needed to increase the temperature of the coal.

As an apprentice, Zhou Ziwen became the person who pulled the bellows, or simply the person who pulled the bellows.
