Chapter 253 A water monster appeared?
The next day, Zhang Ze did not go out to sea, but went to see the progress of the seafood restaurant.
At present, several small boats have been completed and are neatly parked in the shipyard's warehouse.
In fact, medium and large ships have been built, and several carving masters invited by Zhao Xianghua are currently carving them carefully.
After the carving is completed, it has to be painted and it is expected to be completed by the end of the year. Obviously, there is no problem for them to open in the first month of the lunar year.
The smell problem is not a difficult problem. If we leave the boat on the river and let the breeze blow on it for a few days, the smell will probably be gone.
Fishing is Zhang Ze’s main career, but it doesn’t matter if he develops other careers.
At least he is no longer a fisherman, and his social status has obviously improved a lot, which can be seen from Jiang Jiting's attitude last night.
After knowing that he was a shareholder of a seafood restaurant, he became obviously more restrained, which was different from the restraint he had when meeting his sweetheart. This was the difference brought about by social status.
It has been more than two years since the domestic reform began, and the children of workers are still something to be proud of, but the social atmosphere has been slowly changing.
The poorer the more glorious, that is a thing of the past.
When the seafood restaurant opens and business is good, Zhang Ze plans to buy some land and houses.
Real estate, at least before his rebirth, has always been one of the most profitable industries.
Maybe when I get old, I will wear slippers, shorts, a white vest, and live a simple life collecting rent with a bunch of keys.
After spending another day with his wife, Zhang Ze prepared to go out to sea.
When I returned to the fishing village, I suddenly found a few iron cages in my house, which contained a few civets and rabbits.
"What's going on?"
Confused Zhang Ze called Lin Long over and pointed at the game in the iron cage and asked.
"Oh, Ah Hu and I went into the mountains yesterday. We were lucky and all the traps we set yielded results. We thought you might like to eat these wild game, so we brought them back and keep them for later use." Lin Long explained with a smile.
Originally they could have sold these game, five civets and seven rabbits, so much game could fetch a lot of money.
But they knew that Zhang Ze liked these wild game, so they kept them for them.
Lin Long and Lin Hu knew who brought them their current life, so they both wanted to do more for Zhang Ze, no matter how insignificant.
"Okay, okay, let's kill a civet cat and two hares first. I'll take them with me when we go out to sea this time."
Zhang Ze was very happy to hear this. Wild rabbits were fine, but wild game like civet cats would no longer be available in a few years, so he had to eat more now.
Without saying a word, Lin Long immediately went to catch a fat civet cat and two wild rabbits.
As I walked out the door, I saw my younger brother walking towards me quickly, so I asked him to come and help.
Seeing Zhang Ze coming today, Lin Hu's eyes lit up: "Aze, you came just in time. Just now when I went out, I heard villagers say that a water monster appeared at the dock. I went over to take a look and really saw a huge black shadow that looked to be four or five meters long."
"I suspect it's a big fish. Do you want to go over and get this water monster out?"
"Four or five meters? Did you see it wrong?" Zhang Ze was surprised.
If it was two meters, it might be a barramundi. But four or five meters, what was that? He had never heard of such a big thing in freshwater.
Zhang Ze didn't believe in water monsters at all. The country had been founded for so many years, and some things that should be hidden had already been hidden. It would be troublesome if they came out.
"I'm definitely not mistaken. It's almost as long as those small boats." Lin Hu assured himself, patting his chest.
Zhang Ze also became interested when he saw this: "Let's go to the dock and take a look. If it's really that big, I'll buy it!"
"Done?"
“It means to catch it.”
Zhang Ze and Lin Hu walked quickly towards the dock. Out of curiosity, Lin Long put the unkilled game back into the cage and followed them.
Of course, when they arrived at the dock, the so-called water monster had disappeared and hid under the water.
But Zhang Ze went directly to the fishermen to buy a batch of baits, and brought Lin Long and Lin Hu to the Duoyu.
He took out a bamboo pole, tied the fishing line and the largest fish hook, and hung an ordinary bait that he had secretly taken out from the space.
With the bait I just bought as cover, I am not afraid of being discovered.
At this time, the so-called water monster did not scare the villagers of the fishing village, thanks to Zhang Ze.
After seeing the manta rays and other big guys, the fishermen thought that it would be a big fish, and many fishermen were trawling nearby and casting nets in an attempt to catch that fish.
Zhang Ze took out the base after a long absence and installed the bamboo pole on it.
I guess a small winch cannot pull up a fish that is four or five meters long, and a large winch is not suitable to be used in front of a group of people. It is better to just fish directly, and treat it as an entertainment activity before going out to sea.
After spreading some of the newly bought squid bait to make a nest, Zhang Ze threw the hook bait on the bamboo pole into the water and let it sink slowly.
As long as the big fish is still nearby and is not entangled in the fishing net, Zhang Ze has a good chance of catching the big fish.
"Aze, is your fishing rod in good condition? Don't let the fish break it!" A fisherman passed by in a small boat and saw him fishing with a bamboo pole. He immediately teased him.
"This is a high-tech fishing rod I bought in Hong Kong Island. It looks like a bamboo rod, but it is not actually made of bamboo. The giant manta ray I caught last time was caught with this fishing rod, not to mention the four or five meter big sea monster." Zhang Ze started to deceive as soon as he opened his mouth.
But it's not possible to not be fooled. What kind of bamboo pole can catch a fish weighing hundreds of kilograms? A bamboo pole that can catch a fish weighing one hundred kilograms is amazing.
After hearing his words, the fisherman was skeptical, but Lin Long and Lin Hu beside him showed a look of sudden enlightenment.
When they first came here, they helped Zhang Ze catch big fish. They were actually very curious why Zhang Ze's bamboo pole was so strong.
When I learned that this fishing rod was made of high-tech materials, it was easier for me to believe it.
I don't know if it was the effect of the nearby fishing boats coming and going, but after a while the tip of the fishing rod was only shaking slightly.
Many small fish were attracted, but the big fish hooks were too big for small fish to swallow.
“The big fish should have left, right?” Lin Hu couldn’t help but guess as he saw that there was no movement on the fishing rod and no fishermen nearby had caught any fish.
"Maybe." Zhang Zecai opened his mouth when the fishing rod suddenly made a loud noise.
According to some people, a fish that is four or five meters long has become a spirit.
There are many fishermen fishing in the Pearl River, but it is obviously not so easy to be caught in the net as it has been able to hide for so many years and grow so big safely.
But there is a cheater here, using black technology to seduce it.
The bamboo pole was bent so badly that it looked like it would break any moment soon.
Zhang Ze reacted very quickly. He grabbed the fishing rod with both hands and lifted it up hard. With a creaking sound, the fishing rod was lifted up a little and then bent down again.
At the same time, the fishing line was released quickly. Although the speed was not as exaggerated as that of tuna, the unloading force was completely useless.
"Boats in front, please make way. A big fish has been caught here. Be careful not to let the fishing line cut the boat." After seeing the fish, Lin Long immediately came to the side of the boat and shouted to the fisherman in front who was driving a small boat.
"Oh my god, Aze is so lucky that he actually won."
"That's right, we put down so many fishing nets, but we didn't catch anything. Instead, Aze caught it."
"Hurry, hurry, put the net in front of Aze, his fishing rod is about to break."
Lin Long's shouting attracted the attention of all the fishermen nearby. Some of them obediently drove their boats away, but some of them had evil thoughts and quickly lowered their fishing nets in the direction where the fish escaped.
"Damn, what do these people mean?" Lin Hu was indignant, with his hands on his waist, as if ready to take out the shotgun at any time.
Zhang Ze didn't care about this at all. If it was an ordinary fishing line, it might be affected by fishing boats and fishing nets, but since this was produced in space, he was naturally not afraid.
Those who don't listen to advice will end up with nothing.
“Crunch~”
The fishermen's expectation that the bamboo pole would break did not happen. The pole remained strong and looked like it was about to break, but it never broke.
The fisherman who had suspected it was a bamboo pole just now finally believed Zhang Ze's words: "It's really high-tech. It can be bent like this and still not break!"
After not having caught a big fish for a long time, Zhang Ze's muscles seemed to have awakened. They bulged and looked exaggerated.
His strength is incredible now, but still not as great as the fish in the water.
Humans cannot directly contend with the strength of a four or five meter long fish, even with the help of a fishing reel.
In just a few minutes, the fishing line was pulled out more than a hundred meters.
Catching such a big fish is not really about fishing; it all depends on one's endurance until the fish is exhausted.

In order to prevent the big fish from running too far, Zhang Ze did not spare his energy and just went after the fish.
After just over twenty minutes, his breathing became very heavy.
Seeing this, Lin Long said, "Aze, how about I take over?"
"Okay, the three of us will take turns. I'll take a break first." Zhang Ze nodded without forcing him.
As soon as Lin Long took over, his face quickly turned red.
This four or five meter long fish weighs at least five hundred kilograms. When has he ever caught such a big fish?
Even though he was mentally prepared, the strength of the big fish still surprised him.
That is, the fishing rod is installed on the base, and it is guaranteed to drag the person into the water.
"Damn, this fish is really strong!" Lin Long tried hard to pull up the fishing rod, but the rod didn't react at all, which only made it bend even more.
He tried to stop the line from paying out, but he couldn't stop the crank from turning.
"Is it that exaggerated?" Seeing his look, Lin Hu was a little bit unconvinced. Zhang Ze didn't look so exhausted just now.
Lin Long didn't say anything, because if he spoke any more he was afraid that if he lost his temper he would be even more helpless against the fish.
But because of daily boxing exercises, his strength is not as great as Zhang Ze's, but his endurance is very good.
He held out for about fifteen minutes before he could no longer bear it and gave his seat to Lin Hu.
As soon as Lin Hu took over, he understood the pressure his brother was under, and his face soon turned red.
Zhang Ze held a bowl of salt water and drank it slowly, watching his embarrassment with a smile.
Lin Long lasted fifteen minutes, and Lin Hu almost lasted ten minutes. Nearly half an hour was enough for him to recover.
After the exertion of him and Lin Long, the fish was actually a little tired, and its swimming speed had obviously slowed down a lot. It was only about two hundred meters away from them.
Lin Hu noticed this and grabbed the fishing line to prevent the fish from running away. He even slowly reeled in more than ten meters of fishing line.
But this would deplete his energy faster, and after about six or seven minutes, he could no longer hold on. Seeing this, Zhang Ze hurried over to take over.
As soon as he started, he clearly felt the difference between this big fish and the one when it was just hooked, and it was time for him to exert his strength.
He took out the fishing rod and held it diagonally in his arms. He grasped the crank and turned it slowly but firmly, reeling in the fishing line bit by bit.
However, this reeling speed is very slow, and some of the fishing line will be pulled out when the fish struggles.
The three of them took turns again. Almost an hour and a half had passed since they were hooked.
When Zhang Ze took over again, he could clearly feel that the fish's strength had weakened, and it was time to harvest it.
He then used the old lady's trick that all anglers know, slowly pressing down the tip of the fishing rod while quickly reeling in the line, then using strength from his waist to lift the fishing rod up.
Every time he lifted it, the big fish would be about half a meter to one meter closer to him. This repeated process allowed the big fish to gradually approach the Duoyu.
When fishing for big fish of this level, the tip of the fishing rod cannot be pressed too low. An angle parallel to the water surface is enough. If you are less strong, you can even raise it a little higher, otherwise it will be difficult to lift it up.
“Crunch~”
The fishing line kept rubbing in the spool, and the vibration of the fishing rod was transmitted to his whole body.
There were many fishermen gathered around. They were excited at the beginning, but now they were disappointed that the fish was about to be caught.
Everyone wants to get this big fish, but if you can't catch it, you can only blame your bad luck.
Perhaps some people are jealous of Zhang Ze, but when faced with someone who makes them feel rich and powerful, most people won't be stupid enough to rush up to him, let alone offend him.
It is human instinct to seek benefits and avoid harm. Even a brainless person would not offend him.
After a long period of time, a large fish with a dark blue body, a red face and some red patterns appeared on the water.
Just as most people guessed, the water monster seen was a big fish, not a monster or something like that.
When he saw the fish, Zhang Ze gasped. What kind of freshwater fish was this? It didn't look any shorter than his thousand-pound grouper, but it was much thinner.
The weight is definitely over 500 kilograms, but we still need to weigh it to make sure it’s exactly that.
"Hiss~ I'm not surprised no matter how big the saltwater fish is, but I didn't expect that there would be a freshwater fish this big." Lin Long said after taking a breath.
Zhang Ze smiled and said, "The world is so big, there must be many creatures beyond your expectations. You can't be so absolute."
"Start the crane and hoist this fish up first!"
The big fish had completely lost all its strength and was lying on its side outside the side of the Duoyu.
There were quite a few fishermen around who came close to watch, but fortunately no one had any bad intentions to break his fishing line.
Soon, the fish was lifted to the deck by a crane.
Lin Hu was just about to use a ruler to measure the length of the fish, but Zhang Ze sent him away and told him to drive the truck over quickly.
While the fish is still alive, he must find an opportunity to put the fish into the space to gain experience points.
You don't even need to look at this fish to know it's the king of fish. It would be a huge loss if we don't collect the experience points.
Lin Long and Lin Hu left the boat, but the nearby fishermen wanted to board the Duoyu to join in the fun, but they were sent away by Zhang Ze, who told them to wait and watch on shore.
This way there were not many people on the boat, and the Duoyu was high enough, with the side of the ship blocking the view from outside so the fish lying on the deck could not be seen at all.
Zhang Ze took the opportunity to put the fish into the space and gain experience points.
