Chen Hong drove her new car straight home. The villagers saw that her car still had a temporary license plate printed on cardboard, and the white paint was dazzling in the sunlight, so they knew that she had bought a new car again.
Back at the villa, Uncle Erhu and his family were also there. Everyone was very happy to see her new car. The village chief and Uncle Erhu were still a little hesitant to touch it, only cautiously touching the front of the car.
Chen Hong opened the car door and let them sit down and try it out. "Uncle, there's no need to be so careful. This car only cost 100,000 yuan, it's very cheap, and it's not a very good car. I bought it to haul goods."
Aunt Guo went home and took out a piece of red cloth. She cut several strips of red cloth and tied them to the front of the car, the rearview mirror, the four tires, and the cargo box.
Chen Hong laughed so hard: "Auntie, why are you wearing so many ties? You've made this car look like a wedding car."
"You don't understand, wearing more red can ward off evil spirits. When you walk on the road, all evil spirits will retreat and you will be safe."
Since the old man had tied it on, Chen Hong had no choice but to accept it obediently; it was a token of the old man's blessing!
The village chief also went to the village supermarket and bought a string of 1,000 red firecrackers to set off, saying it would add to the festive atmosphere.
With someone taking care of everything, Chen Hong could only follow orders.
In the afternoon, everyone got to work, some cleaning the kitchen, others cleaning the rooms, and they didn't finish until evening.
We all ate at Chen Hong's house and then worked overtime until 10 p.m. before we finally finished.
Chen Hong has already told them that they will be going out to sea again tomorrow; the weather is perfect, and it's the ideal time for a harvest. She also needs to prepare for the May Day holiday.
Now Chen Hong no longer needs to specifically ask Yu Yang for help; both families are busy with the hotel business and are practically living together. Naturally, the child is also eating with them at the hotel.
That evening, Chen Hong made a phone call to reserve a refueling truck and an ice truck. The next morning at five o'clock, she drove her new car and took Black Tiger to the dock.
Uncle Erhu had already delivered all the fishing gear in Chen Hong's tricycle and was waiting for Chen Hong to arrive so he could load it onto the boat.
Chen Hong added fuel and ice, while Uncle Erhu loaded fishing gear onto the boat. Half an hour later, all preparations were complete, and Chen Hong, with Black Tiger in tow, bid farewell to everyone and set sail.
This time, Chen Hong headed straight for the edge of the Yellow Sea and the East China Sea, with the ship speeding at thirty-five knots, riding the wind and waves, and heading straight for the open ocean.
They didn't stop for lunch, using the automatic navigation mode. The two of them ate the lunch prepared in the space and then set off again at high speed.
Black Tiger was on board for the first time, and Chen Hong was surprised at how well it adapted. It excitedly ran around on the deck and in the cabin. Occasionally, when it saw a fish leaping out of the water, it barked loudly, as if it wanted to rush over and catch it.
Unfortunately, the distance was too far, so all it could do was bark a few times to vent its excitement.
With Black Tiger on board, Chen Hong no longer felt lonely. Black Tiger was now running around all over the boat, never settling down for long, which made Chen Hong both amused and exasperated. It really was a way to relieve her boredom.
At 3 PM, Chen Hong arrived at the designated location. She found a deserted reef and began setting crab traps.
Chen Hong was already adept at finding areas where shrimp and crabs congregated. After setting ten crab traps, Chen Hong searched for waters to extend the fishing lines.
After driving for half an hour, they finally found an area where the seabed was full of trenches and coral reefs. Chen Hong cast six longline fishing lines there.
The live bait in the space was hooked and struggled fiercely on the seabed. This attracted the attention of the indigenous people, who readily accepted the delicious meal that was offered to them.
After Chen Hong pulled the six longline fishing lines onto the boat, even Black Tiger excitedly circled around the fish tank. When some fish tried to jump out of the tank, it would lash out with its claw at the larger fish.
Chen Hong burst into laughter. The dog was not only a great watchdog, but it also kept a close eye on the fish.
Working until 5 p.m., we harvested over 4,000 kilograms of large fish. There were many groupers, flounders, sea bass, sea bream, various types of snapper, and several kinds of blue and yellow wrasse.
A variety of rare and valuable fish species appeared in the first batch. The resources here are far superior to those in the coastal waters. Small boats can't come here, and large ships have all gone to the Pacific Ocean, which is perfect for Chen Hong.
Chen Hong also spotted several fishing boats from other countries nearby. This area is at the border of several countries, and some audacious fishermen have come here to fish.
Chen Hong happened to be a bold person who wanted to cross the other party's bottom line. Several ships of different nationalities were all moving quickly, trying to make as much of a catch as possible, and none of them were getting involved with each other.
Chen Hong instructed Black Tiger to keep an eye on the movements of the patrol boats around them and to warn her if any boat was about to approach.
With the black tiger on guard, Chen Hong moved the boat a second time and immediately cast ten longline lines. After only half an hour, Chen Hong had already collected the catch. In such a chaotic place, it's important to cast and retrieve quickly.
If they encountered patrol boats from other countries, they really would ram their boat and confiscate their fishing gear. Chen Hong wasn't afraid of them ramming her boat; even if her boat went full speed ahead, they couldn't catch up. Forty knots was no joke.
My boat is like an elephant pulling a cart; it has two 1500-horsepower engines, and even running just one of them is enough for them to keep up for a while.
