Reborn in Changbai Mountain, I rely on my divine eyes to dig ginseng and hunt

"Well, I was thinking of going fishing tomorrow, so why not change it to the afternoon."

Uncle Qi laughed after hearing this: "No, Xia Lian. You are changing planes. It's too much for a big businessman to compete with fishermen for business."

"That can't be helped. Uncle Qi, you are a monk and don't spend money. I have a family to support more than a thousand people, so I have to work hard."

"No, the time cannot be changed. I'll give you a bonus after the task is completed. Stop fishing."

"Okay, I'm at the Tieniu Island Guesthouse in the northwest of Liancheng."

The next morning, Liu Xia Lian, Daya and Li Daniu had breakfast early. Don't ask where Erya is. She was seasick yesterday and didn't want to go today, so she slept in the guest room.

A middle-aged man came, about 40 years old, with a bronze face and a smell of oysters. He was a typical fisherman, exposed to the wind and sun from fishing at sea all year round.

"Comrade Liu, right? I'm the one who's in charge of receiving you. Just call me Lao Zhou."

"Okay Uncle Zhou, when are we going to leave?"

"Let's go now. Uncle Qi is worried that the people from the Seventh Forty-Nine will come and rob it. We'd better go early."

Generally speaking, strange beasts are certainly dangerous, but their value is very high. For example, the antlion in the Great Gobi Desert has dust-proof beads in its body. This monster in the sea suddenly popped up its head and flew more than a hundred meters high, which attracted people's attention. Maybe there is something good in its body.

When we arrived at the dock, we saw Uncle Zhou's boat, a patrol boat of about 20 meters in length. Although the boat was not big, you could tell it had a lot of horsepower by looking at the big chimney of the engine.

"Uncle Zhou, what kind of sea beast is this? What kind of weapons should we prepare?"

Uncle Zhou pulled open the canvas covering the bow, revealing a twin-mounted anti-aircraft machine gun. Judging from the caliber, it fired ordinary rifle bullets.

"This gun has not been used for three years, but it is well maintained. The waters of Bohai are shallow, so there won't be any sea beasts. I guess it's just a ribbon fish."

"Hairtail? Just catch it and use it as New Year's gift."

"Let's go and take a look first."

There were two assistants in Lao Zhou's patrol boat, dressed in fisherman's clothes. A group of six people boarded the patrol boat, the engine roared low, and the waves rushed out of the harbor.

Just as it was said, although this boat is bigger than our own fishing boat, its horsepower is amazing. It can no longer be described as sailing, but more like flying too low. I really doubt whether Uncle Zhou is smuggling goods on a regular basis.

However, special departments are most averse to asking each other about things, so Liu Xia Lian didn't ask.

The patrol boat drove for half an hour and arrived at the waters where Liu Xia Lian fished yesterday.

The patrol boat shifted into neutral and slowly came to a stop, swaying slowly with the waves on the sea.

Liu Xia Lian asked: "Uncle Zhou, how do we lure this strange fish out? Is it possible that it was just passing by and has gone far away today?"

Uncle Zhou smiled and said, "Although the sea is big, it is just like on land. Various animals have their own territories and generally do not run around everywhere."

"I see."

It was obvious that Uncle Zhou was a fisherman. Liu Xia Lian didn't say much. Uncle Zhou was the protagonist of this mission and she was just a bystander.

Uncle Zhou opened a bag of fish feed, took a ladle, and threw handfuls of fish feed into the sea.

The sea surface, which was originally invisible, now has fish gathering there.

The little fishes came over to grab the food, and they gathered around it for fear of not getting any.

Liu Xia Lian also understood that the strange fish might not eat this feed, but it was certain that it would eat fish, so it was absolutely correct to use fish feed to make a nest.

At first, it was just small fish fighting for the feed, but soon big fish came and snatched the small fish away. Soon after, two gray dolphins came and caused trouble, scaring the fish away.

Uncle Zhou was not angry. He asked his young men to continue throwing the feed. He took a pack of cigarettes and made way for Liu Xialian and others. Li Daniu did not smoke, so Uncle Zhou smoked alone. The dolphins were full, swam for a while out of boredom, and ran away.

After spreading a bag of over 100 kilograms of feed, the effect was quite obvious. Because of the increase in the number of small fish, a large group of blue-spotted mackerel was finally attracted. Liu Xia Lian secretly memorized this method of making a nest and would teach it to her own Hailong No. 1 later.

The Spanish mackerels came in huge groups, and the formation was very large, and they attacked in an overwhelming manner. After a while, the Spanish mackerels began to escape quickly, and fled in all directions in a hurry.

Liu Xia Lian gradually saw clearly that this was an oarfish, but it was too big, as thick as an ordinary person's thigh and more than 20 meters long. It had a very good appetite too, eating one blue-spotted swordfish in one bite. It must have eaten something by chance and became like this.

The oarfish ate some mackerels and suddenly rushed out of the water. Its movements were a little stiff, and it rushed straight towards the sky, about a hundred meters high, and then dived into the water again.

If you don't look carefully at this scene, you might think it's a dragon, but in fact it's not even a Jiao.

Liu Xia Lian was surprised and asked, "Uncle Zhou, is it common to see such a big hairtail?"

"It's not common. I've encountered fish that are over ten meters long before, but this is the first time I've encountered one this big. This time it must be a misjudgment by the people above. This fish is just a little bigger, nothing special."

Liu Xia Lian nodded: "I think so too. I wonder if such a big fish is delicious. If it is delicious, I will catch it and bring it back as New Year's gift."

"Forget it. It's not easy to raise a child this big. Let's go and tell my superiors."

The patrol boat quickly returned to the dock at full speed. Liu Xia Lian, Daya and Li Daniu went ashore and said goodbye to Uncle Zhou.

Liu Xialian and the others walked back to the guesthouse. As they walked, Daya said, "I think this old man is playing tricks and doesn't want to share the prey with us."

"It's okay, it's not a rare thing. The meat of oarfish is not tasty. Let them catch it. Let's eat something and then go to the dock to see if our ship is there."

At this time, lunch had not started yet and breakfast was already over. There happened to be a person making Hu La Tang not far from the guesthouse, so the three of them ordered Hu La Tang dumplings.

After the boss brought the food, he went to chat with someone nearby. There was an old man who was bragging in a very evil way.

"I remember 20 years ago, when I was still young, in my 40s, I took two members of the commune to drive a boat to cast nets at night in order to earn work points. At that time, it was backward, and we only had a simple diesel boat that cast nets."

"One night, Dayue, after dinner, the three of us went out to sea in a boat. The fishing conditions were very good that day, and the first three nets caught more than 200 kilograms of Spanish mackerel. At this time, we suddenly found a forest growing on the sea."

The owner of the spicy soup shop laughed and said, "Can trees grow on the sea?"

"Trees can't grow on the sea. I was shocked when I looked closely. Can you guess what it is?"

"What is it? I can't guess."

"It was a hairtail fish, more than ten meters long, hanging in a row with its head up and its tail down. It scared the three of us so much that we stepped on the gas and ran back."
