Chapter 777 Everything Seems Strange



Su Ran vomited, and her face turned quite pale.

Fu Qing really liked this pretty older sister, so he quickly put down his work, ran to pour a glass of warm water, and waited by her side.

Su Ran took it, thanked her, and rinsed her mouth several times before she felt the strange taste was gone.

Su Jianshe, who was standing next to him, couldn't help but gloat.

She deserved to laugh at her just now!

A fight was about to break out between the brother and sister, and Fu Wan quickly grabbed a fishing rod to separate them.

"Let's go fishing!"

"Fishing? Comrade Fu, don't we need to help you set the net or anything?"

Su Jianshe scratched the back of his head, looking a little embarrassed.

He and Su Ran hadn't been working for very long, and even when they went out to collect material, it was always near towns or in rural villages.

This is the first time I've ever gone out to sea on a ship.

But before he came, he had inquired and learned that going out to sea as a fisherman is not a game. There are diesel fuel costs and boatmen's wages to pay, so he was prepared to do hard labor before he came.

After all, field research is one thing, but it shouldn't interfere with other people's work. Besides, doing it yourself will make you write a better article.

However, after boarding the ship, he not only failed to help Fu Wan and the others, but also caused them a lot of trouble.

Thinking this, Su Jianshe's expression also became serious.

"Comrade Fu, don't give us special treatment. We can do the work that boatmen do too, like casting nets!"

Fu Wan was amused by his words.

She pointed to the others who were busy on the deck and said, "Comrade Su, don't worry about it."

The boat hasn't reached a suitable spot to cast the nets yet, so let a few of them do the preparatory work.

After saying that, Fu Wan also looked around. It was good to have more boatmen; she didn't have to do things like longline fishing and trap fishing herself.

Fu Erlu was originally a fisherman, so he was quite skilled at longline fishing. Li Jun learned quickly as well. Since it was still early, they might as well go fishing instead of sleeping.

"Come on, experience the fun of going out to sea."

Upon hearing the commotion behind him, Boss Fu signaled to Fu Ming, who was steering the boat, to move aside.

"Hurry up and go to the back. You just wanted to fish, didn't you?"

Fu Ming was overjoyed; he had thought he would have to wait a while before he could join Fu Wan and the others.

He hurriedly made way for her, and before leaving, he made sure to assure Boss Fu.

"Dad, I'll cast my line a couple of times and then come over to take your place. I know you want to fish too!"

Boss Fu rolled his eyes at him, "You think you're so great? Get lost!"

Fu Ming chuckled and ran to the cabin to get his most treasured fishing rod.

"Awan, Awan, quickly give me some bait!"

Hearing his son's happy voice, Old Master Fu's lips curled up and a smile appeared on his face.

His son and daughter both resemble him, and Fu Ming's love for fishing is also inherited from him!

However, he is still his son, so he can't always indulge him. He has to give him a nudge from time to time, otherwise he won't be able to take care of his family after he's gone.

After drinking half a cup of warm water, Su Ran and Su Jianshe felt much better.

They were each assigned a fishing rod. Su Jianshe was busy with work, and Su Ran was a girl, so neither of them had ever tried fishing.

Even if they hadn't eaten pork, they had seen pigs run. The two of them were very interested. After observing Fu Wan and the others' actions, they also learned to put bait on the hooks and then cast them out with force.

It was already past six o'clock in the evening, and night had fallen. The visibility at sea was gradually decreasing. Apart from the seabirds that kept following the boat in an attempt to scavenge for scraps, there was only the boundless sea.

And fishing boats with lights on, engaged in fishing operations, on the sea.

This feeling was novel; compared to the vast ocean, a person became as small as an ant, an experience Su Ran had never had before.

Everything Su Ran found fascinating at that moment, and she didn't even realize it until the fishing rod in her hand suddenly sank.

"My fishing rod!"

Seeing the fishing rod fly out of Su Ran's hand, Fang Min, who was closest, quickly grabbed it and pulled it back.

"We've got a fish!"

"What? We've already caught a fish?"

Su Ran panicked a little. Seeing Fang Min calmly grip the fishing rod and start reeling in the line, Su Ran quickly grabbed Fang Min's fishing rod as well.

"I...I'll hold yours for you!"

She watched Fang Min's movements nervously, her heart pounding with excitement.

"Hey, I've caught a fish too!"

Fu Wan had come to watch the commotion, but when she felt the movement coming from her hand, she quickly looked away.

This was the first time Su Ran had ever seen such a scene, and for a moment she didn't know whether to focus her gaze on Fang Min on the left or Fu Wan on the right.

Fu Wan's fish was caught by Fu Qing with a hand net after only a short time.

"Haha, red sea bream, not bad!"

It was a red sea bream weighing about one pound. Fu Wan unhooked the fish and threw it into the bucket.

Fu Qing's smile never stopped as he looked at the bright red sea bream.

"Fish, good fish! Ah Wan, I'll put them in the cabin!"

Upon hearing this, Fu Wan praised her, "Aqing is so clever, put it in the live water tank, so it won't escape."

"Good, alive, valuable!"

Fu Qing happily caught the fish and threw it into the live water tank. Li Jun didn't know about Fu Qing's problem, but Fu Erlv did.

When Fu Wan took Fu Qing on the boat to do things before, there was a lot of gossip in the village behind her back.

It's nothing more than saying that Wang Xiuer is shameless and made Fu Wan spend money to hire a fool.

But as Fu Erlv watched, he realized that Fu Qing's fishing skills were better than many of the men in the village.

Fu Wan wasn't stupid; how could she possibly hire someone who knew nothing to work in the village?

After Fu Qing put the red sea bream into the live water tank, the fish that Fang Min had been playing with also surfaced.

Fu Ming and Ye Lin were watching the excitement from the sidelines. When they saw the fish, Fu Ming couldn't help but exclaim in surprise.

"Hey, this is a red sea bream too!"

Fu Wan originally intended to scoop up the fish, but seeing Fu Qing's longing look, she couldn't bear to compete with Fu Qing for the job.

"Aqing, come here!"

"Good, Aqing is strong!"

Fu Qingzhun was also quite good; he scooped the fish up in no time.

But when Fu Wan saw what the fish looked like, she was surprised for a moment.

This isn't a red sea bream, it's clearly a snapper!

"Brother, you've misjudged it today, this isn't a red sea bream!"

"How could this be? This is just a red sea bream..." Fu Ming leaned over and examined the net closely, only to be immediately proven wrong.

He chuckled twice. "Hey, it really isn't a red snapper."

Su Ran and Su Jianshe immediately became interested upon seeing this. This fish was indeed very similar in color and appearance to the one they had just seen!

As a journalist, Su Ran's professional instincts kicked in instantly.

"Ah Wan, what's the difference between this fish and a red sea bream?"

Fu Wan pointed to the fish's back, "Look, the red snapper has a bronze color on its back, and there are spots like stars, but the red snapper doesn't have that on its back. In fact, the red snapper has golden spots on its back."

"You don't know, the red snapper also has another name, it's called the yellowback snapper!"
