"Yankees! Set sail!"

"Go! GO! GO!~"

This is the fishing port pier.

Fang Hao and Fang Qiang boarded the fishing boat.

Preparing for my second voyage!

The boat was covered with stacks of fish traps.

There were also some fishing nets and the like!

Today's primary task is to set traps. If we can catch crabs or similar fish, they'll be worth more money, at least faster than catching small fish.

When setting traps at sea, quantity is still the key to success.

If you string together dozens of fish traps and put them into the sea, you can catch quite a few things if you're lucky.

Fang Kun broke several of Fang Hao's forty earth cages, so he had Fang Qiang go to town to buy thirty or forty more.

There are dozens of fish traps in total!

After we get the fishing boat to a suitable sea area, we'll put them all out into the sea and then collect them back in a day or two.

It's important to know that setting fish traps in the sea is different from setting them on the shore. You can't just place them one by one in a scattered manner, otherwise they would be hard to find and retrieve, and they might even be swept away by the ocean currents.

A series of beginnings and endings connected!

You can collect them all at once when you're collecting them.

"Brother Hao!"

"What dog???"

Fang Qiang was also completely bewildered.

Clearly, he didn't understand what his childhood friend meant by "dog."

"Yingguo is leading the shit!"

"It means 'to set off'—"

Fang Hao couldn't help but shake his head.

I'll just give a casual explanation.

It's normal for people in the village not to understand these days.

"oh oh."

"You can speak English too!"

Fang Qiang nodded immediately.

These days, even primary schools in the countryside don't teach English.

It wasn't like later times when internet information was so readily available that you could learn about all sorts of strange and wonderful facts and jokes through various channels.

"Dog! Puppy!"

Fang Qiang then shouted as well.

His face was full of passion.

Last night he told his family about how he and Fang Hao caught mackerel at sea.

Everyone was shocked but also very happy.

Even his own mother urged him to work hard for Fang Hao, not to be afraid of hardship or fatigue, and to live up to Fang Hao's kindness.

After all, Fang Hao's salary and bonuses were already far above the average level; he was simply giving him a helping hand. Otherwise, where couldn't one find workers at that price?

You should know that Fang Dajun only earns about a hundred yuan a month working for a fishing boat owner.

"The sea is definitely different in the morning!"

Fang Hao shook his head.

Then he changed the subject.

He was standing on the deck, looking ahead.

At six or seven in the morning, the sea was still shrouded in a light mist.

There are glimmers of light on the eastern horizon.

I imagine that in another hour or so, the darkness will be torn away and daylight will arrive.

Actually, this was the first time Fang Hao had ever set sail in the morning, and it was also the first time he had ever seen the sea so early in the morning.

Before this.

He had never even done housework.

After all, she was pampered and cared for by her parents and four older sisters, and was treated like a precious gem, as if they were afraid she would melt away.

'

Fang Qiang shook his head slightly.

He didn't feel anything was different.

I didn't really resonate with my childhood friend's feelings.

Now I'm just thinking about getting out to sea and setting traps as soon as possible, and hopefully encountering good fishing conditions.

"Brother Hao!"

"Are we going to the power plant again today?"

Fang Qiang then asked again.

They encountered a school of mackerel over there yesterday, so they must still have been hoping for the best.

You might just run into them again!

People always want to take advantage of the same things, and this can even become a habit.

"Hmm, that works too."

"Then let's go over there and set up the traps first."

Fang Hao nodded.

There are still plenty of seafood resources in that area.

Setting down dozens of fish traps should yield a decent catch, at least enough to break even. Then we can try our luck and find a school of fish to net.

The matter of going out to sea to catch fish.

No one was 100% sure they could catch a lot of seafood.

For example, using a ground cage.

They are all left to sit for a day or two before being brought in.

The longer you leave it out, the more likely you are to catch something good.

"OK!"

"Hopefully I'll have good luck today."

Fang Qiang nodded in agreement.

When you go out to sea, you definitely hope to catch some seafood.

Now he's hoping his childhood friend's fishing boat can catch more fish so he can also enjoy a good life.

After all, the boss made a fortune!

Only then can the employees reap some benefits.

For example, Fang Hao received a bonus yesterday for selling over two thousand yuan worth of mackerel.

"Hahaha~"

"Let's keep up the good work! Let's try to have a good catch today, and hopefully encounter more schools of mackerel or silver pomfret!"

Fang Hao continued, smiling.

After yesterday's harvest, I'm really excited and determined to get the fishing boat business going.

An hour later.

The two finally arrived at their destination. The sea area near the power plant was only about ten kilometers away from the fishing port. However, the visibility was poor in the early morning, so the fishing boat did not dare to go too fast.

at this time.

There are already quite a few fishing boats here.

It's obvious that everyone is crowding here to fish.

"Brother Hao!"

"Where should we put the trap?"

Fang Qiang asked Fang Hao.

In fact, you can set fish traps in any sea area with a relatively large amount of seafood; there are no mandatory requirements or standards.

"Let's move a little further ahead!"

"There are no fishing boats over there, you'll be in charge of steering the boat—I'll just put the fish traps in the back—"

Fang Hao spoke up.

Setting up a fish trap is relatively simple.

First, tie foam and a flag to one end and throw it into the sea. Then, start the boat and use inertia to make the trap slide into the water.

Dozens of fish traps.

It won't be long before it's all released.

The entire process requires almost no human intervention.

Swish!

Swish!

soon.

One by one, the fish traps slid into the sea like a rolling dragon, splashing water everywhere.

Dozens of fish traps.

Actually, there weren't many meters;

After all, setting up a trap will make a "whoosh" sound.

Dozens of fish traps strung together can complete the first task after setting sail in just a few minutes.

"Tsk tsk tsk!~"

"Setting up fish traps is fun, and the more you set them up, the more fun it is! It's actually quite stress-relieving!"

Watch as the trap automatically lowers to its final position.

Fang Hao couldn't help but smile as he spoke.

He really enjoys this job!

"I'll be annoyed when it's time to collect the traps."

Fang Qiang shook his head directly.

We'll collect those dozens of fish traps then.

We also need to clean out the seafood inside.

That's really difficult!

"Hahaha!"

"As long as there's a harvest, I'm happy even if it's tiring. I hope Grandma will bless me again, preferably by catching some grouper or large yellow croaker, or even blue crab if necessary~"

Fang Hao said with a smile.

Fishing at sea is hard work!

As long as we can catch seafood, that's fine.

Everything else is not a problem.

Fishermen would rather have a bountiful harvest from hard work than an easy, fruitless one.

Making money is the only thing that matters!

The more seafood you catch, the more you earn.

"Brother Hao!"

"Should we continue casting the fishing nets?"

Fang Qiang changed the subject and asked.

The traps were all in place.

Then we have to cast our fishing nets!

"Um."

"Put all those silk nets down."

"Let's see if we can catch some too—"

Fang Hao nodded.

Besides the net, there was also something else on the boat.

There are also several silk screens.
