Chapter 180: Taking it out to sea



Deng Ziwen filled the small bucket in about two hours, and the seafood in it was pretty good. The worst was something like a large conch, and there were a few better ones like sea cucumbers.

On the other hand, Deng Ziming's side was normal, with only two or three conchs dangling in the bucket, which looked a bit pitiful.

"Okay, let's stay here this afternoon and then come to my house for dinner. I've arranged a homestay for you. You can go back and rest after dinner." Zheng Gan had already contacted Jia Teng in advance and asked the chef to come to his house to cook in the evening.

"Can't I stay with Sister Xin at night?" Deng Ziwen said longingly, blinking her big eyes.

"Sister, how can we sleep in someone else's house? Besides, Brother Zheng has arranged a homestay for us, it would be a waste if we don't stay there." Before Zheng Gan could think of the right words to refuse, Deng Ziming took the lead.

Deng Ziwen also reacted and smiled a little embarrassedly.

"Let's go back and have dinner first. It's a good opportunity to eat all the spoils from today's fishing trip." Zheng Gan breathed a sigh of relief. He really didn't want these two young men and women to live in his house.

Everyone packed up and headed back. They had been playing for the entire afternoon and were feeling a little hungry.

When I got home, I saw Jia Teng sitting on the steps at the door holding a chicken.

"Uncle Teng." Zheng Gan greeted him. "Hey, didn't I say you don't need to bring anything? I've already asked Afeng to buy the necessary ingredients."

Jia Tenghan laughed, "Didn't I hear that you were going to entertain guests, boss? It's time to kill the chickens we keep at home, so just bring them over and add another dish."

"Okay, I feel embarrassed to ask you to come over to help, and I also asked you to bring things. Don't do this next time." Zheng Gan really felt embarrassed. After all, every time he had something to do, he asked others to come over for help, and they didn't pay him any salary.

The dinner was quite rich. The tuna that was brought back a few days ago had not been finished. Although it was frozen, it did not affect the taste too much. Jiang Feng also went to the dock to buy some seasonal seafood.

"Let's raise our glasses together and welcome our two friends!"

Everyone quickly raised their cups and drank them in one gulp.

There were six people at the table, all relatively young. As time went by, they naturally became familiar with each other, and the atmosphere at the table became much more lively.

Jia Teng left after finishing his meal. Zheng Gan originally wanted to keep him here to eat, but he refused no matter what and said that he felt uncomfortable eating with these young people.

It is indeed true. If a person in his fifties sits with a group of people in their twenties, it will definitely be awkward for both parties.

"Ziming and I would also like to offer a toast to our brothers and sisters. Thank you for hosting us." Deng Ziwen drank a glass of beer, stood up with a flushed face, and toasted.

"You're welcome. Whenever you want to come over, just call Sister Xin." Zheng Gan also raised his glass and drank the beer in it in one gulp.

To be honest, he was very panicked when he saw that Secretary Zhao brought two young people.

After all, those who can be brought by Secretary Zhao and are called distinguished guests are basically either children of wealthy families or super rich second-generations. No matter which one they are, Zheng Gan is not someone who can serve them well.

However, he never expected that the brother and sister were quite normal, without any major problems, and were very polite to others, so Zheng Gan now treated them as friends.

They started eating at seven in the evening and continued until after ten. The brother and sister returned to the B&B drunk and agreed to go out to sea together the next day.

"You, you have to be careful with these two funny guys. If anything goes wrong when you go out, you will be in big trouble." Qiao Xin warned while lying on the bed.

Zheng Gan nodded, "I know, but what can I do? Fortunately, the two children are quite patient, otherwise there would be no way to deal with it."

......

At seven o'clock the next morning, Zheng Gan woke up Deng Ziming and his sister who were still sleeping. They had agreed to go out to sea today, but it was already a bit late at this time.

"Brother, it's too early now." Deng Ziwen is now familiar with him and calls him brother directly.

"Now you know how hard we fishermen work. Do you still want to go with us?" Zheng Gan laughed.

"We must go. We can't miss such an interesting experience as going out to sea and casting nets."

As they chatted, they soon arrived at the dock of the shipyard. Because of the engine damage last time, the boat had been parked here since then to prevent it from being damaged again by jealous people.

"Agan, why are you so late today?" Wang Yunzhou said with a smile, "But it's okay to be late. Your father-in-law has wanted a grandson for a long time."

"Stop, stop, stop, Uncle Wang, you can't make fun of us young people. Can't you see there are ladies here? Today I'm mainly taking my two friends out to see the world." Zheng Gan's face turned red for a rare moment, and then he introduced the two children to everyone.

Wang Yunzhou and Jia Gui also welcomed the two of them with a smile. It was not a big deal to bring them on board to play. Zhao Xing and Liu Feng, two newbies, had also gone out with them once before and even became very good laborers.

After a simple packing, the boat started moving and headed outside. The main task today was to take the siblings out for fun, so the boat did not go to the open sea.

"So, do you two want to watch us cast the net first, or do you want to try fishing?" After coming out, these were the only two ways that could barely be considered as ways to play.

"Let's go fishing first. I always heard grandpa say how fun fishing is. Let's try it today. Besides, I heard that Uncle Gao is also a fishing expert?" Deng Ziwen thought about it and decided to fish.

"Who's the expert? Your Uncle Gao?" Zheng Gan was puzzled when he heard this. How could Mayor Gao be called an expert? Maybe he was even as good as Qiao Xin.

But it’s better not to reveal this. Let’s give him some face in public.

"Ahem, okay, I'll let your brother Hao explain some basic rules later, and I'll go find some good downswing positions."

For the two novices, everything was new, and Lin Hao started from the basics to explain to them how to tie the lines, lift the rods, etc.

"Okay? If you've learned enough, start testing it." After finding a relatively good position, Zheng Gan announced that they could start playing seriously.

Deng Ziwen was the first one who lost her patience and swung the club directly without following the position given by Zheng Gan. Deng Ziming, on the other hand, was still in a leisurely manner. After getting everything ready, he swung the club according to the predetermined position.
