I rely on fishing to achieve freedom in life

Chapter 48 Chen Xinyue’s Little Ambition

At five o'clock the next morning, Bailang and Dazhu returned to the town dock.

It was already midnight last night when I collected all the hooks. In addition to resting, I also transferred all the fish from the small boat to the big boat and then returned to the dock. I have been busy until now.

The two of them finally had time to sit down and have breakfast.

Although they were very tired and even sleepy, they still had to fill their stomachs first.

The two of them devoured their food as if they hadn't eaten in months. The steamed buns, soy milk and fried dough sticks piled on the table disappeared at a speed visible to the naked eye.

"These two have great appetites. If they eat this way, they won't be afraid of eating up all their wealth."

"Oh, do you know who these two people are? One of them is Bai Lang from Dalang Village! You should all know about his previous efforts to make money, right? Yesterday they went out to sea to release hooks, and it is said that they caught tens of thousands of kilograms of bass! You just ordered breakfast and you actually said that others can make you poor?"

"Ah, no, that person is Bai Lang? Why would such a rich person come to the stall to have breakfast?"

Bailang and Dazhu were really hungry and kept eating, ignoring the looks of people around them.

The two of them ate like a storm for 10 minutes before slowing down.

"Dazhu, do you want to go back to the village to sleep later, or just open a room in the town to sleep?"

Bailang hit his shoulder as he spoke.

Last night, he pulled the hook continuously for five or six hours. The main reason was that there were too many bass on the hook. He kept pulling. Even though his body was already very strong, he still felt uncomfortable.

"Go back to the village and sleep again. You have to spend money here again."

Dazhu raised his head and laughed, then continued eating breakfast.

Bailang shook his head and smiled. He probably didn't even know how much the bass they caught last night were worth, and now he was still thinking about how to save money.

"I feel like I can fall asleep right away when I close my eyes. Let's not go back to the village yet. Let's find a hotel in the town and get some sleep first!"

He felt that he couldn't bear it anymore, so he settled the matter directly.

The two of them had slept almost all day and all night from yesterday to now. They were really exhausted. If they went back to the village now, it would take at least an hour before they could rest.

"Well, Brother Prodigal, I listen to you."

Dazhu nodded, picked up a large bowl of porridge in front of him, poured it into his mouth, and patted his belly.

After the two had breakfast, they booked two rooms in the best hotel in town.

After taking a bath, Bailang fell down and went to sleep.

"Have you heard that Bailang went out to sea yesterday to set out the fishing hook again, and caught a ten thousand kilograms of bass!"

"That's nonsense. How could someone set up a hook to catch so many bass? Do you know what ten thousand pounds is? Even with a large triangular trawl net, it is impossible to catch so many bass at once, unless you really encounter it. Got the big bass schools.”

"It would be impossible if this happened to you, but don't forget, he is Bailang! Last time he caught several thousand kilograms of white pomfret with a row hook."

"This is absolutely true. Many people saw it last night when they were retracting the hook at sea, and they even took a video. It can't be fake!"

"The reason why Tang Dahai rented a big boat to go out to sea yesterday afternoon is very simple. Bailang and the others caught too many bass, and their small boat couldn't pull them back at all."

"This Bailang is really awesome. Did he really inherit the fishing secrets handed down from Dalang Village? Otherwise, how would he know where the fish schools are?"

While Bailang and Dazhu were fast asleep in the hotel, news spread in the town that they had caught tens of thousands of jin of bass with their hooks last night.

And not only here, but also in several other nearby towns, everyone heard about it.

At first, everyone didn’t believe it, but last night, many fishermen who went out to sea happened to be at the scene, and even took a video of Bailang and the others frantically pulling in bass.

Now everyone believed that they really caught tens of thousands of pounds of bass in one night.

Lao Chen Fishing Tackle Shop.

Chen Xinyue and her father Chen Yunshan were sitting in front of the store and resting. Their heads were covered with sweat. They had obviously just finished their work.

Early in the morning, the door of the store was beaten hard by others. When I opened it, I saw that everyone was here to buy rack hooks. I just found someone to tie more than 100 baskets of rack hooks yesterday, and they were all snatched up in just one hour. . "Xinyue, it seems that the hooks we prepared are still too few."

Chen Yunshan wiped the sweat from his forehead and said a little depressed.

If I had known this was the case, I should have asked my daughter to find more people to tie the row hooks yesterday.

"I didn't expect these people to be so crazy. In fact, the more than 100 baskets and hooks we prepared yesterday were already exaggerated."

Chen Xinyue shook her head.

Yesterday, she got the news in advance from Bai Lang. She hired seven or eight people to tie the hooks in the store. Even so, she was worried that there would be too many hooks tied and whether she could sell them.

But the fact is that the row of hooks she asked someone to tie yesterday was simply not enough to look at.

"It seems that we are still too timid, or we didn't expect that boy Bailang to be able to catch so many bass by releasing the hook. This boy is simply a pervert!"

Chen Yunshan knew that the fundamental reason was that he did not expect Bailang to catch so many bass.

If he hadn't caught so many bass, others wouldn't have followed suit and rushed to buy hooks early in the morning.

"Dad, I think you are right. We are indeed too timid. We must believe that the prodigal brother will be able to create miracles. We should take bigger steps.

A horse cannot grow fat without night grass, and a man cannot be rich without windfall. If we want to make a lot of money, we must be bolder. We must closely follow the steps of the prodigal son. "

Chen Xinyue nodded very seriously.

"We who are in the fishing gear business, no matter how much money we make, can't compare to that guy Bailang. He caught 40 kilograms of bass in one night, which is worth at least [-] to [-] yuan. The most we can do is just drink some soup."

Chen Yunshan had a look of envy in his eyes.

At most, he can only make a small amount of money by selling some fishing gear. Bailang is the one who really makes big money.

"Xinyue, what do you think we should do next?"

Chen Yunshan is gearing up. He and his wife officially resigned from their jobs yesterday and plan to come back and continue running their own fishing gear shop.

In just a few days, because of Bailang, their store has made an amount equivalent to their family's income in the past year.

Of course, this is also due to his daughter Chen Xinyue. Although she has just joined the society, Chen Yunshan feels that his daughter has great ideas, or she has a bright future.

Although he has been in the fishing gear business for more than ten years, he is really not as talented as her in this area.

Chen Xinyue pondered for a moment and said: "The reason why we can make money is that we follow the footsteps of the prodigal son, or do what he says, so what we have to do next is to continue to see what the prodigal son will do next. Do something."

Chen Xinyue knows very well that the reason why the row hooks in her store sell so well is because Bailang bought the row hooks from their store.

People who go fishing at sea believe very much in luck. If you go to other people’s stores to buy hooks, you will buy them, and if you go to their store, you will buy hooks. So why not buy hooks that may have better luck?
Therefore, whether they can continue to make money next comes down to what Bailang will do next, whether to go out to sea to fish or continue to set hooks.

"I heard that Bailang and the others are resting in a hotel in town. Do you want to go over and ask them what they are going to do next?"

Chen Yunshan thought thoughtfully for a moment, and then said with an inexplicable smile on his face.

"Humph, I don't even need to go to the prodigal brother. I also know what he is going to do next."

Chen Xinyue blushed, of course she knew the little meaning behind her father's words.

"You're not the roundworm in his stomach, how do you know what he's going to do next?"

Chen Yunshan was confused for a while.

"What's so difficult about this? The prodigal son caught so many fish this time, and the most important thing is that his fishing boat is too small to hold it, so he has to find another fishing boat to pull it in. It can be seen from this that he will definitely do it next Need to get a bigger and better fishing boat.”

I have to say that girls are more thoughtful.

With Bailang's current earning power, it is indeed only a matter of time before he buys a larger fishing boat.
