Catch the sea: start with a sand shovel and take over the entire beach

That's right, the boats that left Tamsui Island never returned, and it was Zhao Qin who ordered Hu Zi to do it.

But afterwards, he didn't pay much attention to this. If nothing unexpected happened to Tamsui Island, it would be under the control of the village in eight months.

However, it is hard to say how many of the amusement facilities under construction will be intact by then.

In fact, he was quite sad. If the Japanese hadn't intervened, the amusement park would have been put into use next spring.

This delay will take at least another year.

Yesterday at noon, he had a meal with all the boatmen and agreed to set off at five o'clock this morning.

In the morning, he drove Feng Xinghua to the town dock. The dock was very lively today, with the sound of firecrackers ringing in the ears.

It’s like this every year. On the first day of the sea, there is always a ceremony to pray for smooth sailing.

Lao Mao and Zhuzi were also busy setting off firecrackers, each representing a ship. Amid the smoke, the two ships set off one after another.

Feng Xinghua had an advantage: he was not afraid of water and did not get seasick. He was quite excited after getting on the big ship. Zhao Qin kept him on his own boat. There were exactly 18 people, 9 on each boat.

"Aqin, where are you going?" In the wheelhouse, the old cat stretched lazily, looking a little excited.

A three-month fishing moratorium is too long for a fisherman.

Zhao Qin rarely opens the system now, because of the increase in permanent luck value, and the fact that the sea fish have been almost developed by the system, the real-time luck value of the system can play a small role.

But today was the first day at sea, so he opened it and took a look. The luck value was 53 points, and the direction was pointing to the northeast.

"Let's go northeast."

The old cat did not hesitate, slightly adjusted the rudder direction, and notified Zhao Ping's ship via radio.

Zhao Qin walked to the rear deck. After lunch yesterday afternoon, everyone went aboard and cleaned up all the buckets and baskets, so there was nothing to do on the deck.

Everyone gathered together to chat. Feng Xinghua was cheerful and had known Asiahe for a long time, so he didn't seem unfamiliar to them.

"We've already reached the surface of the sea, why haven't you cast the net yet?" he asked the people around him.

"It's still an inward bend here, there's nothing to do. Our boat is big, so we have to leave some space for the smaller boat to operate." Ah He explained.

"How far do we have to run?"

"It usually takes two or three hours to drive out."

"So just wait like this?" Feng Xinghua asked again.

"Well, you can read. I just finished reading this book. Since you're new here, I'll give it to you." Achen said quite seriously and actually handed him a book.

Feng Xinghua's face twitched when he saw the book. If he could read it, he wouldn't have been a bricklayer.

He waved his hand and declined Ah Chen's kindness. "Well, I feel a little sleepy all of a sudden. Thank you."

Actually, he wanted to ask if they could play cards during the two or three hours, but since it was his first time on the ship, he was naturally embarrassed to ask.

This is not to say that Zhao Qin does not allow playing cards. He has never issued an order saying that playing cards is not allowed on the ship. It's just that he himself doesn't like to play cards and doesn't take the lead.

He was also afraid that everyone would play cards whenever they had time and delay their rest, so he never encouraged it. Therefore, no one played cards on his boat.

Ah He nudged Ah Chen and asked, "When is your wedding date?"

The two have always had a good relationship. When Ah Chen got engaged last time, Zhao Qin happened to be abroad, so he asked his elder brother to bring him a gift. At that time, Ah He was the busiest one.

Acting as Achen's brother, he was there to welcome and see off guests.

"In the second half of next year, probably during the Mid-Autumn Festival and National Day. The details will have to be discussed with Ayun's family when I apply for a period."

"Does that guy still bother you often?" Ah He asked Ah Chen's mother.

"I go to see my dad sometimes. Oh, let's not talk about that. Brother Qin is here." As soon as Chen finished speaking, Zhao Qin walked up to them with a smile.

He took out a cigarette and gave each of them one. He was about to say something.

Lai Bao, who had been standing at the stern, came over and said, "Ah Qin, there seems to be a boat following us."

Following the direction of his finger, Zhao Qin saw a fishing boat following his boat not far away.

Moreover, the other party's ship should be the same size as his two ships. He frowned slightly, "Pay attention to how long they have been following us. Maybe they just happened to be on the same route."

"It's also a ship from the town dock. It left the port just after us and followed us from the beginning."

Ah He and the others on the side also heard it, and all stood up and looked behind them, "Brother, how about asking Brother Mao to increase the speed of the boat?"

"It's no use. Their ships are newer and were ordered based on ours. Their design speeds should be the same."

Ships have cruising speed and maximum speed. For example, the normal speed of a ship like ours is about 12 or 13 knots if it is empty, and the maximum speed can reach about 16 knots.

But just like a car, running at top speed all the time will cause great wear and tear on the machine and consume a lot of fuel, which is not cost-effective.

It's understandable. Every time their ships unload cargo, there are so many people watching. It would be abnormal if no one was jealous. It's just that it takes time to order a large ship, otherwise this situation should have happened a long time ago.

"Then let them follow?"

Zhao Qin thought about it and felt that the other party was just following him and did not affect his navigation, so he did not blame them too much. He was just afraid that these people would follow him every time in the future, which would be a bit annoying.

"Forget it, just let them follow."

In fact, he had dozens of ways to make the other party give up following him, but after thinking about it, he thought that maybe it was the first day for the new ship to go out to sea, so he asked for a bonus and let them follow him to see if they could make some money.

He couldn't treat his own people the same way he treated Gojo Shinzo and the others.

"Don't worry about them." Zhao Qin said, sitting on the deck and chatting with everyone. Speaking of which, since the fishing moratorium, it has been a long time since we last saw these people.

It is so intimate that we are all gathered together at this moment, floating on the sea.

After about three hours, it was nine o'clock in the morning, and Lao Mao notified us to log off the internet.

Zhao Qin glanced at the boat that was still following slowly behind him, asked Asi and the others to put the net into the water, and then turned back to the wheelhouse.

"Brother Cat, how deep is the water?"

"It's more than 40 meters. It took more than ten minutes to drive. It seems that this area is relatively flat."

"Have you notified my elder brother and the others?"

"Notified."

Zhao Qin took the telescope, stood on the gangway and took a look at the boat behind him. The other party should have seen his boat casting the net, so the boat deliberately turned to the left.

It was also slowing down, and it seemed that it was planning to land on its left side.

Judging from the opponent's actions, he should also be an old captain.
