Chapter 365 Ancestors
Jiangxia set sail and Zhou Chenglei set the net.
Li Xiuxian saw Zhou Chenglei casting the net, and that was Jiang Xia driving the boat.
Jiang Xia can actually drive a boat? She was very surprised: "Xiao Xia can actually drive a boat?"
Zhou Chengsen took a look and said, "What's so strange about this? A Lei teaches her, and she will learn it."
Li Xiuxian: "Then you can teach me too! Jiang Xia has only been married for a short time and she has already learned it! I have been married to you for such a long time and you never taught me."
Zhou Chengsen: "It takes a month to learn how to ride a bicycle. Are you sure you can learn how to drive a boat?"
Li Xiuxian: “…”
"I'm afraid of falling off a bicycle, but I won't fall off a boat."
Zhou Chengsen: "Yes, it won't fall, it will just hit a reef and sink."
"Bah! Bah! Bah! Bah! Stop talking nonsense! Who else has such a bad mouth like you?"
"Still learning?"
"I don't want to learn anymore!" How could she dare to learn after hearing his bad words?
After Zhou Chenglei put down the net, he returned to Jiang Xia and started the boat.
Jiang Xia thought today's shipping was good. Trawl was boring, and she had finished reading all the high school books she brought with her, so she said, "How about I drive the boat and you fish? It seems like we have some luck with big fish today."
Zhou Chenglei: "Okay, then tell me when you are tired."
"good."
Zhou Chenglei took a look at the boat's instruments, looked around, and went fishing.
He took an anchovy, put it on the hook, and threw it into the sea.
The fish was pulled by the fishing line and towed forward by the fishing boat.
While sailing, Jiangxia admired the cloudless sea, rippling blue waves, and flying birds.
As you get farther from the coast and you can't see anything except the sea, the sky, the birds and the ships, you'll notice that the horizon has a curve.
The deeper you go, the bluer the sea becomes.
After the boat had been sailing for ten minutes, Zhou Chenglei caught a fish.
A mackerel weighing about 20 kilograms.
After he caught it, he found it was the delicious blue-spotted mackerel.
Zhou Chenglei decided to stay and take the fish home to make fish balls for Jiang Xia and Zhou Zhou.
Li Xiuxian had just finished dividing the fish when she turned around and saw Zhou Chenglei had caught another big fish. She said to Li Qingmin, "Brother, why don't you drive the boat and get more familiar with it? Let Chengsen go fishing?"
She recognized it as mackerel, which costs only 60 or 70 cents per pound. A big one like this would cost more than ten yuan!
Another big fish that was more valuable than all the other fish on her boat.
Isn’t today a good day for trawling but for sea fishing?
As the saying goes, "fishing against the wind and sailing with the wind", at this moment their boat was sailing against the wind, which was not suitable for fishing.
Li Qingmin also wanted to fish, so he said, "Let Dad drive the boat! My brother-in-law and I will go fishing together."
Father Li: "I'll go sail the boat later. I'll fish for a while first."
In just a short while, Zhou Chenglei caught a big fish. Jiang Xia also caught a tuna before. Who wouldn’t be excited?
Li Xiuxian: “…”
There was only one fishing rod on the boat, so the father and son of the Li family could only take turns fishing.
Before they started fishing, they asked Zhou Chenglei what bait he used, and then the Li father and son enthusiastically argued about what bait to use.
Father Li: "Use anchovies. Anchovies are cheap. A-lei used anchovies to catch mackerel."
"Use squid. Alei's wife used squid to catch tuna. Tuna is valuable!"
"There's only one squid, and it's worth only 50 cents. You can use as many anchovies as you want."
"If I catch a tuna, I can make a lot of money!"
While the two were arguing, Zhou Chenglei caught another fish.
Li Xiuxian was almost mad: "Whatever! A Lei has caught another one. If you guys keep arguing, it will be dark!"
When the father and son heard this, they looked over and saw that the fishing rod was bent. Judging from Zhou Chenglei's appearance, it was another big fish! "Alei, what fish did you catch this time?"
"Red Fish."
Red snapper! Another relatively valuable fish!
The Li family father and son stopped arguing. Li Qingmin said, "Dad, if you want to use anchovies, just use anchovies! You go fish first."
He'll fish with squid later.
Father Li quickly hooked the bait and threw it into the sea.
It only took less than ten minutes for the fish to be hooked, but it took Zhou Chenglei a full twenty minutes to catch the fish.
After struggling for twenty minutes, the fish finally ran out of strength.
Fortunately, the hook was deep enough, otherwise it would have escaped.
Li Xiuxian saw the big tuna Zhou Chenglei had caught. It was even bigger than the tuna Jiang Xia had caught. It must be over 60 kilograms. It could probably be sold for a hundred or even dozens of yuan.
Li Xiuxian calculated that Jiang Xia and his crew really earned back the boat fare in one day! Father Li also caught a fish at this time, and he said excitedly: "A fish is hooked!"
Li Xiuxian quickly ran over to take a look: "..."
Sea bass! A sea bass that weighs less than a pound.
It's not worth selling.

Father Li: "This sea bass is delicious!"
Li Xiuxian smiled with a fake smile: "If Dad likes it, take it home to eat!"
"……OK."
In the past, when the Zhou family caught such a small sea bass, they would put it back into the sea to let it continue to grow. After all, sea bass weighing more than one kilogram have more meat, and there are so many fish in the sea, so catching a sea bass is a common occurrence.
Zhou Chengsen originally wanted to put it back into the sea!
After listening to what the father and daughter said, I didn’t say anything.
Li Qingmin: "Dad, you're not lucky, let me do it!"
Mr. Li asked him to come.
Li Qingmin rolled up his sleeves, picked up the squid, hung it on the fishhook, and threw it into the sea.
Zhou Chenglei caught two fish, and half an hour passed. He stopped fishing and walked over to Jiang Xia: "I'll drive the boat, you go lie down for a while."
Jiang Xia went to wash his hands, then sat back on the recliner, eating strawberries and pork jerky while taking out a book to read.
If you have nothing to do, just read it again! Reviewing the old will help you learn new things.
Another half an hour later, Zhou Chenglei started to set up the net.
Zhou Chengsen also said when he saw it: "Dad, big brother, start setting up the net!"
Father Li: "So soon to start the network?"
Li Xiuxian: "What can I find online when I get up so early?"
"Pull up the net and go back!"
Li Xiuxian glanced at the time. It was not even two o'clock yet. "We're going back so early? We didn't make any money today!"
"The whole sea is full of fish. We can just drag another net on the way back. Don't you want to follow A'lei? A'lei and his friends are pulling up the net now. They are preparing to go back."
Li Xiuxian: “…”
Zhou Chenglei has made enough money, so he wants to play with them? It's only been an hour, how many fish can there be?
Zhou Chengsen ignored her and asked Li's father to drive the boat while he went to raise the net.
Li Qingmin had no fish yet, so he could only reel in the line, then discovered that the bait was gone. “No wonder I haven’t caught any fish for so long.”
"Brother, come and help." Zhou Chengsen shouted.
"good."
This ship has no net-lifting machine and has to rely entirely on manpower.
Li Qingmin and Zhou Chengsen worked together to pull up the fishing net. The fishing net was sunk to the bottom of the sea and was not light, so it was not easy to pull it up.
Li Qingmin looked at the boat that Jiang Xia and his crew had, and couldn't help but say, "Isn't that boat only two hundred dollars more expensive? Why don't you want that boat? It's so convenient to have a net-raising machine!"
And he found that the boat had more power, which was obviously better than this one! Zhou Chengsen: "Your sister originally chose that boat, but when she drove back, she saw that the boat caught more fish, so she changed to this one!"
Li Xiuxian: “…”
Li Qingmin: "You are stupid! Of course I need more advanced equipment."
Li Xiuxian said unhappily, "The net-raising machine was installed by Asen's fourth brother later."
If she knew that Zhou Chenglei could really repair the network machine and the engine, she would have gone to see if there was an extra one in person.
