Ye Cheng was dumbfounded. He looked at Wang Defa and said, "Second Uncle, we silly fish aren't silly. Just throwing them in like that, do you think any fish will go in?"
"Hey, come on, just sprinkle some, I trust you." Wang Defa tugged at Ye Cheng.
"Believe your sister? You're just messing around."
"My sister?" Wang De was stunned for a moment, then looked at Xiao Hu and asked, "Do you have an aunt?"
Xiao Hu knew this was an insult, so he simply ignored it.
Wang Defa ignored what Ye Cheng said and dragged him to the side of the boat, where a fishing net had been laid out.
"Well, Cheng, all you need to do is hold this, hold this again, and then turn around and swing it around." Wang Defa began to explain the key points of the movement.
Ye Cheng stood there looking at him helplessly. As a descendant of fishermen, he had heard these so-called techniques hundreds of times, but the problem was that he had never actually tried them.
It's like using a special move in a game. You're told the move is up, down, down, back, forward, but you can't actually use it.
After the demonstration, Wang Defa turned to Ye Cheng with an expectant look, "Second brother, come on, just sprinkle it once and that's it."
The way he looks now is like the serpent in the Garden of Eden; it's terrifying to look at.
Seeing that there was no way to avoid it, Ye Cheng could only grab the fishing net and say, "It's a deal, I don't care what happens when we go down there."
“Sure! Do as you please, throw it wherever you want. The ocean is your home, happiness is for you and me.” Wang Defa casually recited a rhyme, quite pleased with himself.
Ye Cheng shook his head and grasped the end and middle of the fishing net with both hands, just as Wang Defa had demonstrated.
Then, like throwing a hammer, he twisted his body, threw it backward with all his might, and the fishing net in his hand spread out into a circle, slowly sinking down.
It looks pretty good, but as for the effect...
Xiao Hu stood to the side and chuckled, "Brother, the amount you spilled isn't even as big as the pot at home."
Ye Cheng blushed. It was a bit small, only about 2 meters in diameter. The fishing net would be at least three times larger when properly cast.
Even a ten-year-old child in the village is better than Ye Cheng.
Since the net was already scattered, Ye Cheng didn't bother to care anymore. He handed the end of the net to Wang Defa and said, "Well, I'm done. You can pull it up quickly so we can go back."
Wang Defa stared blankly, he hadn't expected Ye Cheng to really not know how. How many fish could possibly fit into such a small circle?
He listlessly looked at the fishing net in his hand, perfunctorily pulling it up. Oh well, he should hurry back to eat.
Ye Cheng and Xiao Hu stood to one side, being mercilessly mocked by Xiao Hu.
He had only pulled halfway when Wang Defa suddenly jolted, his eyes lit up, and he shouted excitedly,
"There are fish! There are fish!"
Ye Cheng was speechless. It was really unlucky that such a small opening could allow an unfortunate soul to get in.
Wang Defa slowly pulled the fishing net up. It was clear that there were fish in it; as he pulled it up, he could feel its weight.
"Little Tiger, come and give your uncle a hand!" Wang Defa couldn't wait any longer.
Xiao Hu rushed over and helped Wang Defa pull him up.
In the middle of the fishing net
A group of fish were jumping and splashing around!
Ye Cheng was dumbfounded by the sheer number of them. Could it be that he really knew the Sea Dragon King?
"Hahaha, second brother, see? I told you you were amazing." Wang De laughed so hard he couldn't stop.
"Black sea bream, red sea bream, and white pomfret, there are 20 in total." Wang Defa happily counted them, then threw all the fish into the cabin.
This net caught more fish than he had in a whole day, and they were sea bream, so the price was pretty good.
After collecting the fish, Wang Defa said with a shameless grin, "Second brother, let's do another net, just throw it in wherever you like."
"Uncle, that's enough. If you keep doing this, we won't ride on your boat next time." Ye Cheng decisively refused. He relied on his luck points for a living, and if he used them on Wang Defa, he would lose a lot of money.
Seeing Ye Cheng's determination, Wang Defa could only chuckle awkwardly and sail back; that was enough.
As soon as we arrived at the dock, several fish buyers surrounded us.
"Boss Wang, what goods do you have today? Let us see."
"Is it going to be the Air Force again?"
"Hahaha, it's common for Boss Wang to be a staunch opponent."
Several of the fishermen were already quite familiar with Wang Defa, and they all spoke very frankly.
Wang Defa wasn't angry. He said mysteriously, "I'm not an air force soldier today. I have some good stuff to show you."
After he finished speaking, he began to show off his catch. Ye Cheng glanced at it and thought, "Damn it, apart from the fish I caught in my net, the rest were just small fish and shrimp. I really came away empty-handed."
If it weren't for the boat fare he and Xiao Hu paid, and the last net he cast, Wang Defa would undoubtedly have met his end.
Several fish buyers glanced at Wang Defa and started teasing him, "Sea bream? Is that all? You didn't get any high-end grouper or anything."
"This isn't good enough. It's just this little bit. This trip was a waste of time."
These words provoked Wang Defa so much that his face turned red and his neck bulged. His face flushed and paled in turns, and suddenly he grabbed Ye Cheng and the others' water tank, flipped it open, and...
"Look, you don't have any high-end goods, right? Have you ever seen this before?"
Ye Chengdu hadn't even realized that the tank contained coconut crabs, which he planned to sell in the city. Wang Defa had actually revealed it to him, which was now a bit troublesome.
Hearing Wang Defa's confident tone, the others looked over with suspicion, their breathing quickening and their pupils dilating instantly.
"Coconut crab!"
"It really is a coconut crab!"
"I haven't seen it in many years, and it's still this big."
"Wow, that's amazing! I only heard my grandpa mention it once."
Coconut crabs are rare here, and even fewer people have seen them, which attracted most of the fishmongers at the pier.
"Did you, Boss Wang, get this?" The group looked at Wang Defa with disbelief.
Wang Defa shook his head and pointed to Ye Cheng and Xiao Hu behind him, saying, "They brought it here, but I took them there."
"Tch! You've been talking for so long and it's not even yours, why are you so smug?"
Wang Defa showed no shame whatsoever, and stylishly tossed his head, "If I hadn't taken them there, do you think they could have gotten them? So, I'm the biggest contributor to these coconut crabs."
Before the greatest contributor could finish speaking, he was shoved aside by several people, who then surrounded Ye Cheng.
"Hey bro, are you selling these coconut crabs? I'll take them."
"Second brother, you've sold to me before. I'm Lao Lin. If you sell to me, I'll definitely give you a good price."
Ye Cheng looked over and it really was Old Lin, but they had only had a business relationship once or twice.
Ye Cheng dragged the water tank back, put the lid on, and waved to everyone, "Sorry, someone wants this one."
