Chapter 189 Wow, you can be considered the king of fish
He stretched his neck and saw several wooden boats in the village moving towards Boss Wang's big wooden boat, and he could faintly hear shouting and cursing.

"A Le, Boss Wang and the Zhou brothers are fighting." The Lai brothers also gave up fishing and steered the fishing boat towards that side.

"Have a look!"

Seeing this, Brother Li also turned around and followed. This is how it is in fishing villages these days. Unless there is a deep hatred, villagers will only make trouble within the village. But when they go out to sea and find that people from the same village are in trouble, they will put aside their past grudges and step forward to help.

In this way, when you have problems outside in the future, others will lend a helping hand.

Boss Wang pointed at the captain of the iron boat with an angry face, "You bastard, you think you are so great just because you drive an iron boat? You rush around recklessly, who will be held responsible if something goes wrong?"

"Wang Laohei, you bastard, you are blind but your eyeballs are still there. It is obvious that your boat is going too slowly and blocking my shipping path, yet you are trying to turn the tables on me." Zhou Achang cursed back unceremoniously.

Boss Wang showed no sign of weakness, "Zhou Achang, you monkey, I have been chasing the fish and catching them in front of me, what the hell do you mean by suddenly coming over here?
If I hadn't reacted quickly and hit it over there, your boat would have hit my boat. If something happened, what would you use to compensate me?"

"My boat is going fast, but you said I was going too fast and rushing around. Why didn't you say your boat couldn't move? Do you know how to drive a boat? If you can't, go back and learn for two years before coming back."

More and more fishing boats were approaching this side. After Zhou Achang, who was traveling with him, came closer, he shouted at him at the top of his voice: "Achang, hurry up and work for me!"

Zhou Achang refused to accept the offer and said with his neck stiff, "Brother, this Awu Luan said that my boat was too fast and hit him..."

"You almost hit my boat just now." Before Zhou Achang could finish his words, the captain of a fishing boat that was approaching interrupted him in a loud voice.

"Boss Zhou, your brother is very arrogant. He just tried to snatch the fish from me. Luckily I dodged quickly, otherwise I would have been hit by him."

"You're scrambling to catch so many fish, and you're so arrogant driving a metal boat! If you have the guts, just go and ram the fishing boats on the south bank. What's the point of being so arrogant in your own backyard?"

"Yes, this area is full of fish. You can fish anywhere, but you have to compete with others for a spot. It's obvious that you are relying on your iron boat and we are wooden boats and don't dare to collide with it."

Seeing that Zhou Achang had caused public outrage, Boss Zhou quickly clasped his fists and apologized to everyone, "Bosses, what my Achang did today was wrong. I'm sorry to everyone."

"Whether we are sailing a metal boat or a wooden boat, we all make a living on the sea. Let's take advantage of this good opportunity to catch more fish and sell them for money instead of wasting our energy on fighting."

Boss Wang and the boss from before saw this and clasped their fists towards him, "Okay, for Boss Zhou's sake, let's forget about this matter today."

"Whether you're driving a tin boat or a wooden boat, we're all from the North Shore, and we all make a living in this sea area. If we act arrogantly, we'll only make the South Shore people laugh at us."

"Boss Wang is right. The sea area has been demarcated, but we are fighting over territory again. If the South Coast guys see this, they will laugh their teeth off."

"Disperse, disperse! Cheer up and cast more nets before the fish run away. You won't have to work hard in the second half of this year and you'll have food to eat."

The villagers of Shatou surrounded Zhou Achang's fishing boat and retreated outside. Since they didn't want to fight, they just cast their nets more frequently to make money. If they cast one less net, they would lose dozens of dollars.

Li Changle and his crew's fishing boat withdrew and happened to meet Old Man Jin and his father.

"Ale, Awei...you are here too!" Old man Jin in the driver's seat greeted them happily.

Chen Yongwei smiled innocently and said, "Uncle Jin, I saw you guys over there just now."

Jin Hui stared at the fish on their deck with wide eyes, "My goodness, you guys came quite early and you've caught so many!"

"We have a lot of people!" Li Changle pointed at Boss Wang and Boss Zhou's boats, "There are more people on the big ships!"

"You are not bad either. Work harder. If you miss this opportunity, it will be hard to come by again!" Old Man Jin was hoping that Chen Yongwei and the others could make more money.

"I know. Uncle Jin, you guys should do your best too!"

Jin Hui wanted to say that this was not the first time that Li Changle and his companions had encountered a school of fish. Seeing that the boat had dispersed, the scorching sun shone on the sea, shining silver on the school of silver pomfret that was swimming forward continuously.

Countless big fish were chasing their prey, and the scattered fishing boats followed closely behind, casting their nets to catch and also busy casting their nets to chase the schools of fish.

Li Changle and his brothers discovered that there were many big fish here, including big silver pomfret. The people on the boat were as excited as mice falling into a rice jar, and they didn't know where to start!

Chen Yongwei threw the fishing net towards a large fish that jumped out of the water to catch food. While pulling the net in, he shouted to Li Changle, "Brother, throw it towards the big red snapper over there." Then he shouted, "Damn, it's too heavy. I can't pull it!"

"We caught a big one!" Brother Li saw that the veins on his neck were bulging from pulling so hard, so he quickly dropped the fish in his hand and went to help. "Fuck! This net is amazing. How can it be so heavy?"

"I watched it carefully!" Chen Yongwei grinned and shook open the fishing net. Two one-meter-long tunas and countless silver pomfret fell on the deck.

Over there, Li Changle threw the fishing net with all his might towards the big fish that was chasing the school of fish, caught a few red snappers and quickly pulled the net in. He worked hard to finish this trip, and the money from the sales should be able to fill the gap in building a new house.

If the work is done well, all the gaps will be plugged, and the money earned in the future can be saved to buy a metal boat. When Li Erge saw him start to pull the net up, he hurried forward to help pull the net up, then turned around and used a knife to bleed the deep-sea fish such as red snapper and tuna, and put them in a rubber bucket and sprinkled ice cubes on it to keep them fresh.

After casting several nets in succession, the three men, who had just caught their breath, cast the nets and fished more and more slowly.

Seeing this, Big Brother Li asked Second Brother Li to take the helm. He replaced Chen Yongwei who was casting the net, and asked Li Changle to put down the net and help pull it. The three of them began to take turns again.

The sun was setting in the west, and the sky was filled with sunset glow. They had no idea how far they had chased the school of fish.

Li Changle felt his arms becoming more and more sore. He rubbed his arms and began to sort out the fishing nets. He found that he could hardly hold the fishing nets with his hands.

I forced myself to tidy up the fishing net, but found that it had also started to go on strike. Several fishing lines had broken, revealing holes, due to the struggles of the big fish.

Chen Yongwei took a breath and took the fishing net. "Brother, you take a break, I'll do it!"

"Well! There are holes in several places, and the small pomfret will leak out from the holes. Why don't you change the net and catch them?" Li Changle said, pointing to the fishing net thrown aside casually.

Chen Yongwei took a look and said, "I'm too lazy to clean them up. I'll target the big ones. With such a small hole, the big fish can't get out."

He carried the fishing net to the bow, spotted a big fish and cast it out with all his might, not caring whether the net was round or not. It was limp and had no strength, and he would just try to catch as much as he could as long as the net dropped into the water.

The fish was caught in the net and could not be pulled up after being pulled to the side of the boat. Brother Li quickly put down his knife and went forward to help him pull the net. As a result, neither of them could pull it up. Li Changle struggled to go forward and help and finally pulled the fish onto the boat.

After shaking it open, we found that the big and small fish together weighed only a few dozen kilograms. It took three people working together to pull it up.

I'm so tired, I'm almost paralyzed!
Li Changle slumped on the deck and said weakly, "Brother, Awei, we can't do this anymore. If we continue like this, our hands will be useless. Pull up the trawl net and we will return home."

Brother Li was too tired to talk. He looked at the fishing boats chasing the schools of fish in front of him and felt reluctant to leave.

"The trap nets haven't been collected yet!" Chen Yongwei leaned against the side of the boat, breathing heavily, the muscles in his arms trembling involuntarily.

Li Changle was reluctant to go back, but what else could he do? He had no strength left and could only sit here and watch others poop.

On second thought, they were the first to discover the school of fish and had been fishing for an hour longer than them, so they should be content.

"Let's not worry about the traps today. We'll go back and rest for a day before collecting them. Making money is important, but so is health. If you get sick, you won't be able to pull the nets in the future, and the loss will be huge."

"Okay, let's return!" Big Brother Li nodded and waved to Second Brother Li, asking him to start the net machine and pull up the trawl net.

The two brothers have helped the boat for so long and feel that today’s fishing operations are the same as they do when the big fish season comes in the big fishing grounds.

They all use purse seines and trawl nets, with more than a dozen boatmen working at the same time.

Also, no matter how honest a person is, he or she will not work with all their strength when working for others as they would when working for their own family.

The net-lifting machine made a "clicking" sound, and the three men perked up and stepped forward. Three pairs of weak hands pulled the fishing net hard.

He gritted his teeth and mustered all his strength, pulling until the veins on his arms and neck bulged. He used up his last bit of strength and finally pulled the bulging fishing net onto the deck and placed it on top of the pile of fish.

The three men were completely exhausted. They leaned against the side of the boat and looked at the fish in the net bag, not wanting to move even a finger.

Brother Li stopped the boat, walked forward and opened the net bag, and saw countless silver pomfret, tuna and mackerel pouring out.

Suddenly, a huge mackerel about one meter seventy-eight meters long and nearly one meter wide rushed out along with the other fish, and swept a large pit among the fish with its tail fin.

"Fuck~" Brother Li stared at the fish in front of him that was longer than himself, exclaiming, "Killing armor, killing armor, this big guy, can be regarded as the king of fish, right?"

Li Changle's spirit suddenly emerged from nowhere, and he stepped forward excitedly, "Wow! No wonder the short video said that the big-eared mackerel is different from the blue-spotted mackerel. The largest one can grow to more than 300 kilograms."

Only after he finished speaking did he realize that he had let the cat out of the bag. Fortunately, everyone was so tired that they didn't pay any attention to what he said.

"This one must be about 200 kilograms, right? We've never seen such a big mackerel in the fishing grounds!" Brother Li felt his strength coming back, and said cheerfully, "Fix the trawl net and go into the water to drag it back."

"Yeah!" Chen Yongwei grinned, so happy that he didn't know what to say!

The four of them cheered up, sorted out the fishing nets and put them into the sea. Brother Li drove the fishing boat back towards the sunset, and there were also fishing boats following behind.
