Lu Ao hung up the phone, and no one at the table cared about eating, they all looked up at him.

Lin Manzhang put down his chopsticks, and asked hesitantly, "Whose phone number? Why does it seem that I heard that fishing nets are going to be checked?"

Lu Ao: "The boss who refurbished the boat called me, saying that he needs to repair the trawl."

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

Lin Gongshang said bluntly, "Yes! It's time for rectification."

Trawling nets, unlike floating nets, reach directly to the bottom of the ocean.

When fishermen fish, they lower their trawl nets and then drag the nets forward on the seabed or in sea water.

In this way, where the trawling net passes, all fish and shrimp will be collected in the net, large and small, and none of them can escape.

Many fishermen prefer to use trawl nets because they are less likely to go empty.

Such fishing nets are very damaging to the marine environment, especially bottom trawls.

As soon as the fishing net is dragged, the big fish and small fish in the sea are also caught by the net, everything on the seabed is plowed, and the environment that marine life depends on for survival no longer exists.

Ecology will also suffer a devastating blow.

Some fishermen do put the small fish they catch back into the sea, but when they are dragged by this kind of trawl net, the small fish are dragged half dead, and it is useless to put them back into the sea.

Lin Gong merchants, who directly use spear guns to fish, look down on this kind of trawlers.

Of course, if trawling destroys the marine environment, their fishing income will also drop.

There is a competitive relationship between the two sides, and it is normal to look down on each other.

Lin Gongshang blurted out, no one at the table spoke, and the atmosphere fell silent.

Lin Manzhang touched him, signaling him not to speak so bluntly.

Only then did he realize that Lu Ao's newly bought boat also had a trawl net.

He embarrassedly apologized to Lu Ao, "I didn't say what you meant."

Lu Ao grabbed the crab with both hands and said, "It's okay, I don't need to drag the net."

When Lu Ao bought the boat, he never thought about using fishing nets.

With his ability, it is enough to catch a few fish in the sea, and there is no need to drag the net.

He now catches more than 50 catties of fish every day.

This amount is not enough for a big fish to feed for a day.

As a dragon, he only takes a little fish for rations a day, which is already very economical.

Lin Manzhang thought more, "Trawling nets are not allowed on the ground, what about other nets? Are there any restrictions?"

"I don't know for the time being. I'll call tomorrow to ask." Lu Ao said, "The general rectification can't catch us small fishermen who obey the rules, so don't worry too much."

Lin Manzhang shook his head, "In the past few years, fishery resources have been recovering well, and more fishermen have joined the industry. When there are more people, there will be more chaos in the industry. I'm afraid the higher authorities will tighten up again."

More than ten years ago, the state spent a lot of money on the fishermen's large-scale conversion activity, and basically transferred away all the fishermen who could change jobs.

At that time, the form of marine environmental protection was very severe. There were no fish to catch in the coastal waters, and there were no big fish in the open ocean.

At that time, the method of fishing moratorium was still adopted.

However, the fishing moratorium is useless. During the fishing moratorium here, the country spends a lot of manpower and material resources to cultivate fish fry and restore the seabed ecology. After the fishing moratorium is over in just a few months, all kinds of boats enter the sea, and all fish, big and small, are caught.

Most of the fry born during the fishing moratorium died before they grew up.

Many unruly fishermen not only catch big fish, but also catch small fish with their nets.

Every time they go ashore, the small hairy fish on the shore can be piled up like a hill, and anyone with a conscience will cry out when they see it.

The small fish with long fingers could not be sold for a price, so they sent the small fish to the feed factory, smashed them and sent them back to the fish rafts to feed the farmed fish.

This situation has only improved after so many years of governance.

Now that the signs of indiscriminate fishing are on the rise, the country will definitely use thunderous means to vigorously rectify them.

Lin Manzhang didn't know what others thought. A fisherman like him who devoted himself to the sea was most afraid of policy changes.

His family relies on him alone to make money, earning seven to eight thousand a month, to support the whole family.

If the policy changes, he will be transferred from another job, and he will have to live in the city. Among other things, what to do with his sons and daughters will be a problem.

If you want to work part-time, your wife must also go.

My wife is not well educated, so if I went to work outside, I would probably do things like washing dishes and sweeping the floor. Not to mention the low wages, she was tiring, and she had no time to take care of the children.

There is an old man in the family, but when such a half-grown child needs discipline most, they dare not leave the child to the old man.

The more Lin Manzhang thought about it, the more worried he became, and he couldn't eat any more crabs.

The Lingong merchants are still young and haven't experienced that wave of changing jobs, but he has.

Many times when the policy comes, people simply can't do anything about it.

As the saying goes, "A speck of dust from the times is like a mountain when it falls on a specific person."For such a big event, if it is brushed aside, it will be wiped to death.

Everyone at the table could see that Lin Manzhang was in a bad mood, but they didn't know how to comfort him.

The atmosphere in the second half turned so inexplicably cold.

Everyone finished eating two large pots of crabs silently, and said goodbye and went home.

Before leaving, Lu Ao said to Lin Manzhang: "Don't worry, I will inquire tomorrow, and his news may not be accurate."

Lin Manzhang sent them off, "Okay, let me know when you hear the news tomorrow."

"must."

Ge Ranzhou was there, they couldn't teleport back, so they walked back side by side.

It is now the beginning of the month, there is no moon and stars in the sky, and a few people go back with flashlights. From the fields on both sides of the road, there are frogs and insects from time to time.

Silence went a long way.

Ge Ranzhou said, "Why do I think it's very risky for you to do this? Why don't you just go back to the city and open a supermarket, even if you can't make a lot of money, at least you can live comfortably."

Lu Ao took out his phone and checked the contents of the phone.

Seeing that he didn't speak, Ge Ranzhou continued to babble, "If you are short of money, I can also raise some for you. I won a project from my mentor this year, and I still earned some money. I will give you [-] yuan. Eighty thousand is no problem."

Lu Ao was a little moved in his heart, and said, "I don't need you."

He opened an app on his phone and handed it over, "My income is pretty good."

"What is this? Huh? Mobile banking?"

After seeing the contents of the phone interface clearly, Ge Ranzhou snatched his phone, held it in front of his eyes, and counted with his fingers, "Ten million million million... Fuck! It's more than 500 million! How did you earn it, kid? Why so much money?"

Lu Ao pretended to be calm, "Lucky, I caught several special fish in the past few months, and I earned it."

Ge Ranzhou was full of doubts, "Fuck, I don't believe it! You must be demolished somewhere, right?"

"It's true." Song Zhou came out to testify and said with a smile, "I watched him earn money from fishing."

"Don't you all join forces to donkey me?"

Lu Ao said lazily, "Did you have something to eat?"

Ge Ranzhou looked at Lu Ao's phone, then at Lu Ao himself, looked at it for a while, then turned off the phone, and sighed, "Are there any fishers here? Take me?"

Lu Ao asked, "Isn't your research promising?"

"Promising fart!"

Ge Ranzhou plucked his hair, showing off his thinning skull, "Look at me, I'm almost bald after doing scientific research."

Lu Ao watched it for a while, "Will it be better after going out?"

"It's even worse going out. Let's not talk about 1, maybe [-]. My brothers and sisters work so hard, and they only start at [-] to [-] a month, and the monthly salary is not enough to buy half a square meter. "

"Will the national scientific research institution be better?"

"Working overtime is better, but [-] yuan a month may not be able to pay the full amount, and maybe I have to write a project for the leader's son to hold a science and technology competition..."

Lu Ao patted him on the shoulder, frowned and asked him, "Is it really that miserable?"

"It's like this when you just came out of society—" Governor Ge Ran sighed, "If you really have this kind of income, I won't persuade you. Your career has a better future than most jobs."

Lu Ao pondered: "If you are really interested, you can stay and work with me. In terms of income, you should start with eight or nine thousand a month."

Hearing what he said seriously, Ge Ranzhou became serious, waved his hands and said, "No, I'm just joking. I've studied hard for more than ten years, and I can't waste the good time I spent on the cultivation of the country."

"Too."

Ge Ranzhou sighed, "I really didn't expect you to have this kind of income. I thought all fishermen were poor."

"I didn't think of it myself." Lu Ao said, "It's also luck. If there is a chance next time, I might do something about marine protection. If you want to stay, it doesn't have to be fishing."

"Not for the time being," Ge Ranzhou said, "I'm fine too. My supervisor calls me a doctorate doctor, and I'm considering it. It will be a little harder after I get a doctorate, but I'm quite interested in it."

His eyes were shining when he said this, Lu Ao looked at him, "You should be fine."

"It's for sure. After I pass the exam, I will come here to play again. Your side is a little bit off. The scenery is really beautiful."

Ge Ranzhou babbled all the way.

Both Lu Ao and Songzhou listened patiently, even afterward, both of them could tell that Ge Ranzhou was a little drunk.

Ge Ranzhou talked about his dream, his pressure, and his marriage.

In the end, he said to Lu Ao full of envy that he was the happiest, having met his true love, and there was no need for a blind date.

The two returned home and finally sent him to bed to rest.

Ge Ranzhou was still talking.

Lu Ao poured him a glass of water on the bedside and turned off the light for him.

After coming out, Lu Ao sighed to Song Zhou: "It's not easy."

Adults, whether it is Lin Manzhang, a new fisherman who seems to be a freelancer, or Ge Ranzhou, a doctoral candidate who is a proud son of heaven, each has their own troubles.

Song Zhou turned to look at Lu Ao, "I didn't think it was easy before."

"Huh? You also have such moments?"

"Yes, I used to feel lonely and boring." Song Zhou smiled, "It's gone after I met you."
