Chapter 059 How about I give it a try?
The captains were still hesitating, and Zhao Tiezhu signaled the helmsman to start speeding up without even counting.
"Wait!" Jiang Sinian shouted to Zhao Tiezhu.
Zhao Tiezhu and the others knew that Jiang Sinian was a soldier.
Nowadays, people have a stronger sense of military power, and even a fishing tyrant like Zhao Tiezhu will give Jiang Sinian some face.
He raised his hand and signaled the boatman to stop.
"Well, you go back and repair your boat. I'll lead these boats for you."
Zhao Tiezhu did not refuse, he knew that Jiang Sinian was a soldier, and he knew that Jiang Sinian was different from Chen Bin. If Chen Bin lets him lead the team, perhaps most of his fleet will become members of the Chen family fleet, but Jiang Sinian is a soldier, he will not go out to fish.
There is nothing to think about this matter, if someone is willing to do the hard labor for free to help him lead the team, of course he is happy to do it.
"Thanks to the comrades of the People's Liberation Army!" Zhao Tiezhu happily bowed to Jiang Sinian.
When the captains heard that someone was willing to lead them, they naturally made way and let Zhao Tiezhu go home.
Chen Bin frowned, "Why did you take this job? You know it's a thankless job."
"Then what to do? Just ignore these fishermen?" There are
more than 20 ships. Even if there are five boatmen on each ship on average, it means that more than 100 families need the income from this trip.
Zhao Tiezhu can be lazy, but Jiang Sinian cannot turn a blind eye.
"But you still have a mission. You have to board the Osprey when you reach the 246 sea area." Chen Bin still disagreed.
He used to be a soldier, and their most important mission is to protect the integrity of our country's territorial waters, airspace and territory from being violated, and to protect the lives of ordinary people from being endangered.
However, it does not include taking them out to sea to fish.
Jiang Sinian nodded, "Didn't you just say you would take them with you?"
Chen Bin jumped up and down, "So you get the good reputation, and let me do the hard work!"
"I'm guaranteeing you."
Lin Wanxia, who had been watching from the sidelines, raised her eyebrows in surprise.
I really didn't expect Jiang Sinian to have such a "rogue" side.
However, it was obvious that this was not the first time that Chen Bin was cheated. He frowned and said, "Brother, I was just trying to provoke Zhao Tiezhu and I didn't really want to lead his fleet. First, I already have more than a dozen ships, and with their more than 20 ships, there are almost 50 fishing boats.
We are going out to sea to fish, not to fight. The more ships, the better." The
purpose of group fishing is to show strength, so as not to be helpless when attacked by pirates, and to prevent being bullied by fishermen from other countries.
But the main purpose of risking one's life to enter the high seas is to fish.
How big a school of fish would it take for 40 or 50 fishing boats to catch together?
In fact, except for the Zhao family fleet, there are generally no such many ships.
Fleets with larger ships usually have five or six. Fleets with medium-sized ships or small boats have only a dozen ships, like Chen Bin.
The so-called large boats here only apply to the high seas.
Zhao Tiezhu is indeed too greedy.
After becoming the king of his own village, he gradually became dissatisfied with the dozen or so fishing boats under his command, and set his sights on the fishing boats of his uncle's village.
He partnered with his uncle to destroy the boat of the captain of their village's fleet, and took the opportunity to give the fleet to his uncle.
Regarding going out to sea, his uncle had to listen to Zhao Tiezhu. The reason why he was willing to help his nephew was because Zhao Tiezhu would also share a part of the management fee collected by his uncle.
These boats are the combined total of the fishing boats of the two villages.
Originally, there were about thirty fish, but because Zhao Tiezhu was too rude, like a leech, he sucked blood but couldn't get rid of it, so they had to reluctantly sell the boat and change their careers.
That's how Lin Wanxia bought the boat.
As Chen Bin said, they came to the sea to fish, not to fight. Zhao Tiezhu led such a large fleet to show off his power on the high seas, but the fleet did not catch more fish than other fleets.
Other fleets had more than a dozen ships to share a batch of fish, but they had thirty ships to share a batch of fish. It's conceivable that they didn't make much money.
Fortunately, relying on the large number of ships, Zhao Tiezhu dared to take them to the sea areas that other fleets dared not go to, so they could make up for it a little, otherwise everyone would have run away long ago.
But, even so, everyone has relatively little spare money. Apart from living expenses, most of the income is spent on maintaining the ship.
Chen Bin pointed at the Zhao family fleet, "Look, the ships in their fleet are very old, and the risk factor of these ships going out to sea is much higher than our ships."
He really has no power.
Lin Wanxia raised her hand, "How about I give it a try?"
"You?" Chen Bin shook his head, "This is your first time to come to the 246 sea area, how can you lead the team?"
Jiang Sinian also disagreed, "It's different from offshore fishing. This is not our country's territorial waters. The risk factor is too high."
Lin Wanxia certainly knew about this, she spread her hands, "But, do you have a better way right now?"
No.
Both men were silent.
"Although I have never led a fleet, this is indeed my first time on the high seas. But Dapeng is in the team. He is the grandson of Grandpa Sun and has been brought up by Grandpa Sun since he was a child. He knows everything a fisherman should know. I will get on his boat later and assist him."
Lin Wanxia's boat broke down, but she couldn't always drag Dapeng down. This time she went out to sea with Chen Bin's fleet and discussed with Chen Bin to take Dapeng along.
Fishermen make their living by the sea and cannot avoid going out to sea.
Jiang Sinian thought about it again and again and nodded, "Then you give it a try! Don't worry, I will protect you."
So Lin Wanxia and Jiang Sinian got on Sun Dapeng's boat, and the two fleets sailed separately after entering the 246 sea area.
Everyone was crowded together, and no one could catch any fish.
Sun Dapeng was very nervous and panicked, "Xia Xia, when I came here before, I either followed Grandpa or Zhao Tiezhu. I never took the lead myself, and I didn't know what to do."
Lin Wanxia patted Dapeng's shoulder soothingly, "Don't worry! It is said that three cobblers can beat one Zhuge Liang. What are you afraid of?"
Jiang Sinian: "..."
He is not a cobbler.
But thinking that he would soon have to board the Osprey and separate from the two of them, he didn't say anything more.
"Then... where are we going?" Sun Dapeng was still at a loss.
"Where did you go fishing before? Can you find the way? If you can, go." Lin Wanxia suggested.
Sun Dapeng nodded and turned the rudder with his hand, "Yes."
He grew up on the sea since he was a child, and he was very familiar with even the high seas.
With a compass in hand, he knew the way.
Lin Wanxia didn't dare to use the golden finger to summon the fish.
The types of fish she unlocked are relatively few, just three or two.
It's impossible for more than twenty ships to catch the same fish.
But she can make her consciousness merge with the sea.
See what the sea sees, hear what the sea hears.
It's just that Lin Wanxia has just arrived in the 246 sea area, so she has to familiarize herself a little.
The next day, Jiang Sinian left the team and boarded the Osprey and left.
Dapeng said that the nearest fishing spot to their fleet was still three days away.
These three days were enough for Lin Wanxia to adapt.
However, three days at sea were not the same as three days on land.
On land, three days passed in the blink of an eye.
At sea, natural disasters and man-made disasters could happen, and you could face the difference between life and death.
