Chapter 177: Mother Zhou is quite skilled at scolding people!
In the evening, after Jiang Xia finished his meal and showered, he continued to translate at his desk. Zhou's mother came in with a bowl of milk and said with a smile, "Drink the milk and go to bed early. Aren't we going out to sea tomorrow?"
Jiang Xia smiled and said, "Okay, thank you, Mom. I'll go to sleep soon."
Zhou's mother added, "Alei asked me to prepare a urine bucket in the shower room. If you don't dare to go to the toilet outside at night, just use the bathroom, or call me and I'll go with you."
Jiang Xia smiled and responded: "I know, Mom, go to bed early."
"Okay, you should go to bed early too. Don't work out too late. It's not good for your health." Mother Zhou gave one more reminder and went back to bed.
She is used to going to bed early and getting up early.
Jiang Xia continued translating until half past ten before going back to bed.
But tonight she was alone, and she couldn't fall asleep for a moment, even though she usually fell asleep in seconds. She wondered where Zhou Chenglei was sailing to and what he was doing. But she was a person who fell asleep in seconds, so she thought about it for a while and fell asleep in less than a minute.
Zhou Chenglei had just sold the fish he caught during the day to a fish transport ship and made more than three thousand yuan.
A fishing vessel is a special ship used to transport fish at sea.
Many fishing boats will stay at sea for a long time when they go out to sea. After all, the fuel cost alone is not small. But sometimes they are lucky and the fish they catch fill the boat quickly. If they don’t want to return so quickly, they can sell the fish to a fish transport ship when they meet one, and then continue fishing in the sea.
The existence of fish transport ships has greatly improved the operating efficiency of distant-water fishing vessels.
Zhou Chenglei encountered schools of fish twice during the day and a fish transport boat at night, and he immediately sold the fish.
After all, we don’t know when we’ll encounter a fishing boat next time.
Having just sold some fish, he sat on the deck and looked at the silver hook in the sky. For the first time, he hoped that it would become round soon.
I don’t know if Jiang Xia is asleep.
He was a little worried that she wouldn't dare to sleep, after all, she was so afraid of snakes.
He talked a lot during the day, but he didn't dare to mention how to go to the toilet at night, for fear that she would think of snakes and be afraid to sleep at night.
He told his mother to stay with her when he heard her get up to go to the bathroom.
Zhou Yongguo came to Zhou Chenglei and said with a smile: "Are you still not asleep? Are you missing home?"
Zhou Chenglei neither admitted nor denied: "Why aren't you sleeping?"
"The boat is shaking too much, I can't sleep." It was Zhou Yongguo's first time to go out to sea, and also his first time to sleep on a boat, so he was not used to it.
Zhou Chenglei: "You'll get used to it after one or two nights. Go to bed early. You never know if you'll run into a school of fish in the middle of the night."
The ship is equipped with a fish finder, but the fish finder is not omnipotent. It can only detect whether there are fish in the sea area within a certain distance.
Whether or not you can encounter a school of fish depends on luck.
After Zhou Chenglei finished speaking, he went back to sleep, but he couldn’t fall asleep for a long time. It was the first time for him to suffer from insomnia and the first time he felt the pain of missing someone.
All I could think about was: I wonder how Jiang Xia is doing...
the next day
Jiang Xia got up at 4:30 to go out to sea. Zhou's mother followed him today. Now that her great-grandmother was helping to look after the house, she thought about going to the island to pry some oysters to dry in the sun.
Moreover, her family spent so much money to rent a piece of sea, and that sea is now equivalent to their own fields. She has not seen it yet, and she also wants to go and see it.
The four of them walked towards the dock and unexpectedly met Zhou Bingqiang and his son.
Zhou Bingqiang walked up to Zhou's father with a smile: "Yongfu, has your family's sea area been approved?"
Father Zhou: "Of course! How can we raise fish in cages without approval?"
Zhou Bingqiang: "The sea area my family applied for has not been approved yet. We all applied on the same day, but yours was approved. I don't know why ours was not approved!"
After saying that, he glanced at Jiang Xia!
His family’s application for sea area was not approved, and he suspected that Jiang Xia was behind it!
Zhou Guohua said that those staff members knew Jiang Xia.
He looked at Jiang Xia and said directly: "Xiao Xia, did you ask your father for help, so that it was approved so quickly? Otherwise, you can also ask your father to help Uncle Qiang! Ask them to quickly approve the sea area applied for by my family. We are neighbors and have the same great ancestor, you will not refuse to help, right?"
Yesterday Zhou Guohua went to the relevant department to ask whether the sea area they applied for had been approved. The other party actually said that the sea area they applied for was not suitable for fish farming, and the application was rejected, and they were asked to change to another sea area.
Zhou Bingqiang suspected that Jiang Xia and Zhou Chenglei had done something to prevent their application from being approved! Otherwise, the sea area they applied for was near the sea area contracted by Zhou Chenglei.
Zhou Chenglei’s products all passed, so why can’t his family?
Saying that you are not suitable for raising fish is just an excuse!
And they knew that person and he was also suspended for investigation!
He now gave Jiang Xia a chance to let her settle the matter herself, otherwise he would write a letter of denunciation to accuse her father of partiality! Her family rented her own sea area to raise fish, and his family rented his own sea area to raise fish. They could obviously not disturb each other.
What right do they have to suppress their family and make things difficult for his family? Zhou's father couldn't help cursing in his heart when he heard this: Shameless! Jiang Xia also wondered how he could be so shameless, but the modern Internet is so developed that she has seen many things that destroy people's worldviews, so she is not too surprised.
She smiled and refused, "I'm really sorry, Uncle Qiang. The staff has rules for doing things, and I can't help you. If the information you submitted is complete and qualified, I think it will be approved soon. We are fast because our information is complete. Or are you ready to try again?"
Father Zhou also said, "Yes! Do you need to find someone for such a small matter? We always follow the rules! We don't do things that break the rules and take shortcuts! Besides, the national policy now supports some people to get rich. As long as you prepare the information, you will definitely pass. Get ready and try again!"

Zhou Bingqiang's face turned black: "Really? Then I'll try again!"
Having said this, he walked away.
Mother Zhou couldn't help but roll her eyes: "What a weird-voiced monster! You can tell at a glance that his butt and face are in the wrong place! He has his butt on his face! His face is bigger than his butt, and he just farts when he opens his mouth!"
Jiang Xia laughed. What a novel description! Zhou's mother really has some skills in scolding people!
Father Zhou: "Don't worry about him, let's go!"
So the Jiangxia family stopped talking to him, found their own boat, boarded it, and sailed out to sea.
As soon as the boat set out, Zhou's father called Jiang Xia to go fishing and catch more fish to put in the net cages.
The fish have been kept in the cages for three days. Zhou Chengxin went to check on them yesterday and put some small fish and shrimps in to feed them. At least until now, the fish are still alive and well.
Only one or two died, probably because they were injured when they were caught.
Jiang Xia didn't fish, she helped Zhou's father fish.
Because Zhou Chenglei asked Jiang Xia to try not to fish, he was worried that when he was not around, it would be the fish that would fish her instead of her.
After all, Jiangxia had good luck and caught only big fish.
Jiang Xia thought there was some truth in this, so he stopped fishing.
A little expert in making money is a little expert in making money.
Jiang Xia's hand touched Zhou's father's fishing rod, and Zhou's father caught a fish soon! Yesterday, he caught one fish every 20 minutes on average, and felt that life had lost its fun.
Now the fish come all of a sudden!
Jiang Xia saw that it was a sea bass weighing about one kilogram. This fish will also be one of the most farmed fish in the future.
Father Zhou took the fish down and was about to continue, but Jiang Xia pointed in the direction of the rising sun: "There are fish jumping up there! There are also a few seabirds circling, is there a school of fish?"
When Zhou Chengxin saw it, he immediately sailed over.
Father Zhou looked over and saw that some seabirds were being bitten by the leaping fish and dragged into the sea. He quickly said, "Stop! Don't go over there!"
