Years: Salted fish life since going to the countryside.

Chapter 886 Achieve your wish

Not long after Han Li rode his horse in a certain direction, he arrived near a village. As expected, he was stopped again before entering the village. This time, he still had to provide a purchase certificate to pave the way.

However, after Han Li met the captain here this time, in addition to expressing his intention to purchase some items, he also proposed to borrow a boat from their village to go out on the sea, and pay the rent.

Han Li also specifically pointed out that the size of the boat did not matter and it did not matter whether it had an engine or not, but it had to be equipped with fishing nets and all the necessary fishing gear.

Han Li was both purchasing and paying rent, and the captain here immediately agreed.

Because in the captain's opinion, Han Li just wanted to take a stroll on the sea, but rowing, forging, and grinding tofu are the most tiring jobs since ancient times. What's more, it is even more tiring for one person to row and steer the boat. Soon, this ignorant kid will be forced to come back obediently.

However, they just took advantage of the time when the boy was out to sea, and the horses he left here could be used to fetch water for their team.

So the captain quickly prepared a small fishing boat for Han Li. Since Han Li was alone, he could only operate in shallow sea areas. The captain did not give him anything like a trawler. He only gave him a hand-cast net, several crab cages, harpoons, spear guns and other fishing gear that could be operated by one person.

(In the 20s, a -horsepower fishing boat was basically the largest fishing boat, but this type of boat was generally only owned by aquatic product companies, fishery associations, or other related units.)
Han Li rowed the small fishing boat, heading towards the sea little by little against the waves.

Because refrigeration conditions do not allow, even when fish, shrimps and crabs are at their fattest, fishermen and fishery departments will not waste their efforts, so there are basically no ships on this sea.

After Han Li moved away from the coastline, he quickly cast his first net with the help of several sky scouts, the Saker Falcon and the Peregrine Falcon.

However, because the operation was too unfamiliar and stiff, the net was not fully spread out for the first time, as if it was going to smash all the fish out of the sea. The result was naturally empty-handed.

The second time I cast the net I opened it a little, but still caught nothing. The third time I got rid of the title of "empty net" and successfully caught more than ten small fish.

This made Han Li sigh in his heart. Although the hand-throwing net looks simple, it is not easy to play it well.

But no matter what, this was his first harvest with a hand-cast net. Han Li took out the dozen or so small fish from the net and threw them to the two Saker Falcons resting on the boat.

Han Li put the net back in place and was about to cast another net when he suddenly saw a big fish jumping out of the sea in front of him. Although it fell into the sea immediately, based on its size, it was estimated that this big fish must weigh at least hundreds of kilograms.

At this time, Han Li secretly cursed himself in his heart, what a fool, there were spear guns and harpoons on the boat, why did he just think of using a hand-casting net, a tool he had never used before?

Wouldn't it be nice to tie a harpoon or spear gun to a rope and use a short spear to catch big fish? If you can catch a whale, then those little guys in your vast peach garden will not be short of food.

However, this thought flashed through Han Li's mind and was then thrown away. This small broken boat could not withstand being dragged by a whale. Even if it could withstand being dragged, what would it do if it was dragged into the deep sea?
Han Li acted immediately. He quickly put away the hand-casting net and picked up the harpoon to take a careful look at it.

This harpoon is a bit similar to the dung fork used for collecting farm manure. It has a total of five forks. The middle fork is about 20 centimeters long, and the two forks on each side are solitary and pointed inward. Each fork is very sharp and has barbs to prevent the fish from getting off the hook. The fork handle is a wooden stick more than three meters long.

Han Li took out a strong rope and tied it to the harpoon, and told the Saker Falcon and the Peregrine Falcon not to stare at the schools of small fish, but to look for the big fish nearby.

Han Li found the trick after two attempts, and his gains in the following period could be said to be quite good.

However, Han Li should be thankful that the fishing industry has not been developed on a large scale in those days. There are still many big fish around, and he hardly needs to row a boat to chase the fish. Otherwise, even if the Gers found a big fish, Han Li would not be able to catch it, because the fish would disappear before he could row the boat over. Han Li became more and more skilled in fishing, and his understanding of the relative weight of the size of sea fish became higher and higher. Later, he would not even look at fish that weigh less than 100 kilograms.

Han Li played until the sun was about to set and by then he had already caught more than twenty large fish of various types.

Although Han Li didn't know the names of these fish, the smallest one weighed over 100 kilograms, and the largest one weighed over 400 kilograms. After being stabbed by the harpoon, it dragged the boat for a long distance before being collected by Han Li into the decomposition space.

Han Li was very happy with such a harvest and decided to do it again tomorrow. This way, not only would his family not be short of fish for a long time, he would also not have to worry about the food for the little ones like Ruhua and Siyu for a long time.

While Han Li was counting his harvest in his mind, he was also paddling the boat hard towards the shore.

After he came ashore, he was surrounded by many villagers. Especially when they saw that there was no catch on the boat, many people at the scene showed mocking smiles on their faces. Some even said that his level was not even as good as that of the teenage children in their village.

But there was something rare, because after Han Li had been sunbathing on the sea for a whole day, his skin was only slightly red, with no signs of darkening.

Han Li didn't care about the villagers' comments at all. On the contrary, he cooperated and put on a very unwilling look. He told the captain that he wanted to stay here for one night. He would rent a boat and go out to sea tomorrow. He would not go back unless he caught some fish himself.

The captain was very happy about Han Li's action, because in this way he could not only collect one more day's boat rental fee, but also use the horse for free for another day. However, he still tried to persuade Han Li a few words.

However, Han Li looked like he would not listen to any advice at all. He said that he seemed to have some experience with the harpoon today, and asked the captain to prepare a few more harpoons for him later.

In the evening, Han Li took out his money and tickets to have dinner at the captain's house. In addition to the table full of seafood, what impressed him most was the fish sauce, which was very salty. It was said that it was made from big bluefish. After dinner, he stayed in a house in the village committee.

After putting on a complete show, early the next morning, Han Li bought some steamed buns from the captain's house, filled his kettle with water, and set off.

The boat was the same one from yesterday, but there were no hand nets or crab pots on it, only five harpoons and two spear guns.

However, Han Li had yesterday's experience, and today he had five harpoons, which allowed him to shoot continuously and simultaneously when the fish swam by, which allowed him to gain more catches, and ultimately Han Li's harvest today more than doubled.

Han Li looked at the catch in the decomposition space and a happy smile appeared on his face, because whether these fish were eaten by his family, given as gifts, or used as food for the little guys in the vast peach garden, they were enough for Han Li to sustain for a long time.

It can be said that this is one of Han Li’s biggest gains from coming to Beidai H this time, and it is a gain he had not thought of before coming.

As Han Li rowed back, he began to think in his heart. In the past two days or so, Captain Wang of Ganshitou Village should have collected most of the dried abalone from the nearby villages. On the way back, he would go to him to purchase some. After returning to the sanatorium, he could ask from the side if he could return to Sijiu City early.

If possible, he would leave immediately. Although it would be a little hot to go home, he could enjoy the soft jade in his arms and do what he likes. It would increase the reserve of kidney water and accelerate the perfection of the five elements and five internal organs.

If not, Han Li would just enjoy this leisurely vacation with peace of mind and enjoy the treatment that others cannot enjoy.

But Han Li has one more thing to do first.
