Reborn as a Sea King in Tokyo Fishing Village

Chapter 17 You caught this from the fish pond, right?

In fact, if the weather hadn’t started to get bad, Ji Chang would have wanted to fish some more.

The Yuzi has a carrying capacity of three tons, or six thousand kilograms, and can easily carry two tons of fish.

Ji Chang still felt a little regretful that he couldn't fill the cabin.

Sitting in the cabin, Ji Chang felt a little tired.

I was so focused when I was fishing just now that I didn't feel anything.

Now that I'm sitting down, fatigue sets in.

The process of collecting the first net of fish lasted about half an hour, and it was very physically demanding to pull those fish back and forth.

If he hadn't been cheating, he wouldn't have been able to catch more than 300 kilograms of fish on the boat by himself.

He opened the food box prepared by Kurosawa Arisa and directly grabbed a rice ball and stuffed it into his mouth.

The rice ball is filled with fresh lobster meat, which is not only delicious but also nutritious.

He found that after he started cheating, his stomach's digestive ability also improved and he became hungry very easily.

While eating, Ji Chang steered the boat and ate most of the rice balls he brought.

Sailing against the wind and waves, Ji Chang's Yuzi finally entered the fishing port.

At this time, there were many fishing boats returning to the fishing port.

The boats returning to the port are all small boats less than ten meters in length, and these boats usually operate in the near sea.

So the dock is very busy now, and fishermen are unloading the catch from the fishing boats.

Staff at several purchasing stations were also busy, and the scene was bustling with activity.

Ji Chang took out a pack of unopened cigarettes, slowly opened it, lit one, and then walked out of the cabin.

After jumping ashore, Ji Chang fixed the cable and prepared to find someone to collect the fish.

"Ji Changsang, did you really catch fish again? I didn't make this trip in vain, did you?" Fujii Hideyama asked doubtfully.

Having worked at the dock for more than five years, he has never seen anyone sell fish three times a day.

Is this still going out to sea for fishing?

This is the fish pond, let’s go fishing!
"These few fish baskets are not enough. I have at least 500 kilograms of saury in my boat."

Hearing what Ji Chang said, Fujii Hideyama's eyes widened and he made an exaggerated expression.

"Five hundred kilograms, how is that possible?"

"You went out to sea alone, and in just a few hours, you were able to catch 500 kilograms?"

Fujii Hideyama has heard such outrageous things during his long time working at the dock.

"Hurry up, get a few more fish baskets and stop talking nonsense." Ji Chang patted the other person on the back of the head.

"Hi"

Fujii Hideyama grimaced in pain, not daring to delay any longer. He moved some fish baskets onto the trailer and caught up with Ji Chang who had already left.

After the two men moved the fish basket onto the boat, Ji Chang opened the hatch.

Fujii Hideyama's eyes widened when he saw the saury in the live water tank still jumping around.

"Si Guoyi!"

"Ji Changsang, how did you do it?"

"This is too much. There are so many saury to catch in this coastal waters. This is too crazy!"

Ji Chang directly picked up a landing net and said coldly: "If you ask about fishing secrets, you will be sunk into the sea. Have you thought about it?"

Fujii Hideyama's face changed involuntarily, and he quickly waved his hands and said, "I'm just kidding. I just admire your strength, Ji Changjun."

It is truly amazing that one person could catch so many fish in such a short time.

Fujii Hideyama was not only envious, but also jealous.

Today, Ji Chang sold all his fish to the purchasing point where he worked, so he roughly knew how much money Ji Chang made.

If he had the ability, why would he need to work like a stupid cow at the dock?

Ji Chang ignored Fujii Hideyama who was still in shock, and used a large net to scoop the saury out and put it into the fish basket.

Ji Chang estimated that at 500 kilograms, he generally couldn't run too far.

This is all physical work, and it is difficult to do it alone. Fujii Hideyama was only responsible for pulling the fish back to the purchase point, and it was impossible for him to help.

After all, this job didn't originally belong to him, and he would just be asking for trouble if he did it.

He lit a cigarette and continued to express his envy.

"Stop looking at it, come and fish with me, I'll give you one dollar."

It was obviously not in line with Ji Chang's character to have a laborer not being used.

Even though his strength is two or three times that of an average person after cheating, it doesn't mean he is willing to treat himself like a beast of burden.

"Hi!"

When he heard that he was going to give money, Fujii Hideyama was overjoyed.

He also knows that fishing is not that easy, and finding fish schools can be difficult for many fishermen.

In addition to one's own accumulation, this kind of experience is generally passed down from ancestors.

Although his father was a fisherman, he sank into the sea to feed the fish before he had the chance to pass on his experience to him.

Fujii Hideyama actually has quite a bit of fear about the sea.

He lives in fear every typhoon season.

His goal was to make more money and then buy more land to become a rich farmer.

In island countries, farmers have a higher status than fishermen and their income is more stable than that of fishermen.

With the addition of Fujii Hideyama, the fish in the cabin were quickly put into the fish baskets.

Then, Ji Chang and Fujii Hideyama carried the fish baskets off the boat and pulled them back to the purchasing station via a trailer.

These fish need to be frozen, some are sent to processing plants, and some are frozen and then transported to other places via cargo ships.

After carrying the fish down, Ji Chang gave one yuan to Fujii Hideyama.

After pulling the fish to the purchasing station, Takao Uotani showed a surprised expression.

"I can't believe you caught so many fish again. I've been at the dock for decades and this is the first time I've seen anything like this."

"It seems that the size of your fishing boat limits your ability to catch fish. I really hope you can get a bigger boat."

The more fish Ji Chang caught, the more Uotani Takao earned.

For fishermen, the sea is their source of food and clothing.

For Takao Uotani, the owner of the fishing boat is his bread and butter.

"I also look forward to changing to a bigger ship as soon as possible, so Yu Gu-san must give me a good price so that I can earn enough money quickly." Ji Chang said with a smile.

"No problem, I will definitely give you the best price." Uotani Takao laughed loudly.

Then, people were asked to sort and weigh Ji Chang's fish.

This took quite a while. Ji Chang handed a cigarette to Uotani Takao and chatted with him for a while.

In his early years, Takao Uotani had been in the Yakuza and had a lot of things to brag about.

His limp was caused by his contribution to the community.

Takao Uotani is an interesting person. He speaks quite humorously. He is also an anti-war activist and has great admiration for China.

Of course, such people are a scarce population in island countries.

The majority of people at the moment are still fanatical militarists.

After all the boasting, the statistical results came out.

Takao Uotani filled in the price on the form and then paid the money to Ji Chang.

In the afternoon, Ji Chang earned 178 yuan.

In the whole day, he earned more than 500 yuan.

This ability to make money is even more powerful than a 30-meter-long fishing boat.

After collecting the money, Ji Chang got on Miyamoto Tamako's bicycle and prepared to return to Gutan Village first.

To find Miyamoto Tamako, you have to do it at night when it is dark and windy.
