Chapter 6 Buying a Harpoon

Chuanwang's second master and fourth master are brothers, both in their 50s, but it is undeniable that they have the best fishing and fishing skills in the whole village.

If grandpa was 30 years younger, he might still be able to compete with him, but now grandpa is old.

The second master was looking at the little chicken, and the family's big yellow was sitting beside him, with his tongue sticking out of his mouth, looking at the little chicken from time to time.

"Another chicken was bitten to death. Where did the wild cat come from? Rhubarb, don't you know how to take a look? You know how to sleep all day long."

The rough palm slapped the dog's head heavily. This behavior made Rhubarb think he was playing with it. He tilted his head and lay down on the ground, revealing his belly on the ground.

Rhubarb's actions made the second master unable to get angry. He could only take out the dead chicken and throw it into the trash can.

"I don't know what bit it, otherwise, I'll burn it for you."

The second master grabbed Rhubarb and stretched out his head, wanting to smell it, so he pressed it down: "You glutton, you can't be a thief from your house, right?"

Such a statement is just a joke. Once a dog in Xiaochen Village bites a chicken or a duck, it will either be chained for the rest of its life, or it will be served on bamboo sticks until the dog dare not touch the chicken or duck.

Rhubarb has been freed since childhood, and chickens and ducks have long been used to it, so they are not interested at all. The reason why I want to smell the chicks is entirely because of the habits of dogs.

After preparing feed and water for the chicks, the second master looked up and saw Chen Chuanwang standing at the door.

Da Huang ran over at eight paces, collided with Xiao Hei who followed Chen Chuanwang, and then the two dogs breathed with their mouths open.

The second master asked with a smile: "When did Ah Wang come back?"

"I came back yesterday afternoon."

The second master was in a daze for a moment, and he rubbed his head: "This afternoon... oh, I forgot, I heard from them yesterday that you came back and saved the two children of A Mao's family behind."

"Yes, Second Master, that's why I came to you." Awang was also unambiguous, and said directly if he had something to say: "When I rescued the child yesterday, I saw a big fish in the lake. Two or three meters, I checked last night, it is likely to be European catfish."

"Two or three meters?"

The second master was shocked. He had never heard of such a big fish: "Then it must weigh several hundred catties? How could there be such a big fish in the big lake? You must have misread it, right?"

The second master is proficient in water skills. He has been fishing in South Lake for decades since he was a child. He knows where the most fish are in this lake, what kind of fish can be caught, and how big the biggest fish is.

It is absolutely impossible for the catfish mentioned by Chen Chuanwang to appear in Nanhu Lake, and the catfish here will not grow so big.

"European catfish? I seem to have heard of it. Is it the kind of large bass that is shown on TV, the kind that can eat people?"

Chen Chuanwang nodded and said, "Yes, that's the kind. Even if you can't eat an adult, you can easily eat a child. So I suspect that I saw it yesterday because the fish wanted to eat a child."

"That can't be done, this fish can't be kept!" The second master frowned, he knew the consequences of such a big fish appearing in the South Lake, it would be difficult to catch a fish in the future, and getting into the water was also a big problem.

After living for decades, he can be regarded as an old man, so he asked knowingly: "You came to me because you want to catch that fish?"

"Well, I probably checked how to catch European catfish, but you also know that I haven't touched a fishing rod since I was a child, and I haven't even used a fishing net, so I can only look for you."

Chen Chuanwang immediately said: "Don't refuse in a hurry, I won't let you go fishing for nothing. The 300 yuan, whether you can catch it or not, is yours."

"If you think you can't do it alone, after I've found you, I'll go find fourth master, plus my grandfather and me. Even if you can't drag a few hundred catties of fish ashore, you can at least be trapped there. Cross it to death in the water."

At this point, the second master has nothing to think about. He doesn't have any job, so he is busy all day long, wandering around the South Lake or fishing from time to time.

300 yuan is enough for young people to go to work for a day.

The second master nodded: "Okay, you can tell your fourth master that you can call me when the fishing things are ready."

"okay."

It's much easier for the second master to say hello on the fourth master's side.

The village was not big in the first place, and the second and fourth masters were brothers, so the two families were not far away.

Chen Chuanwang soon arrived at the fourth master's house.

Fourth master had just returned home at this time, basking in the sun in the yard outside the door, listening to the play, when Chen Chuanwang arrived, he didn't even notice.

Chen Chuanwang yelled, "Fourth Master!"

"Hey?"

Fourth Master opened his eyes and turned his head to look: "Ah Wang, I thought who it was, I've heard about it, you saved someone yesterday, it's amazing."

"It's nothing, if the fourth master sees it, he will save people." Awang smiled, and then talked about fishing.

"Second brother agrees? That's fine, I'll go too. If I catch a big fish weighing hundreds of catties, I can spend my whole life blowing outside."

The fourth master agreed on the spot: "But how are you going to catch it? With such a big fish, the fishing rod should not be used, and it will definitely break if you try it hard."

When Chen Chuanwang was on the road, he had an idea in his mind. He said, "I'll buy a steel bar in a while. For the fishing line, use thin iron wire. This way, fish weighing several hundred catties should be stable. Then we will directly Kill it with a fork."

"Rebar..."

Fourth Master shuddered, it was the first time he had heard of using steel bars as fishing rods, but it seemed reasonable to use steel bars to catch such a big fish.

"Since you have an idea, let's listen to you. You pay the money anyway. However, in addition to fishing rods and lines, you also need to buy special fishing for pig liver or chicken intestines. Don't let us work for a long time and catch a bunch of other things." fish."

Chen Chuanwang nodded: "Understood, when my things are ready, I'll go buy the freshest ones."

"That's fine, call me when you're ready to drop, and I'll take out all my fishing nets to dry in the sun."

"it is good."

Both the second master and the fourth master had been informed, and Chen Chuanwang was relieved. As for the others, they would definitely come to watch the fun.

Chen Chuanwang knew the character of the people in the village, and if there was any major event, he would definitely think about joining in the fun early on.

The second master likes to visit. I believe that within a day, everyone in the village will know about the fishing.

When it comes to fishing, if there are not enough four people, one or two of the people who join in the fun will definitely come out.

When he got home, Chen Chuanwang rolled out his grandfather's electric tricycle, bought steel wire, and it was not easy to bring a bicycle back.

Grandpa came out and asked, "Is everything settled?"

"Okay, I'm going to buy something for fishing."

"Ride carefully."

"Ah."

The tricycle started, and Chen Chuanwang left slowly.

………………

"What size harpoon do you want?"

"The four biggest."

"Do you want a rod?" asked the manager of the fishing tackle shop.

"No, I have bamboo at home, so I need four heads, and bring me a big fishing net..."

After paying the money, Chen Chuanwang threw four huge lantern harpoons and fishing nets into the cart.

The lantern harpoon is not the same as the harpoon in the movie Haiwang. The harpoon of Haiwang only has three teeth (three points), while the lantern harpoon sold by Chen Chuanwang generally has seven teeth.

The harpoon given to Water Tiger last night was a small seven-toothed harpoon, relatively small and easy to use.

But now Chen Chuanwang bought a large nine-toothed harpoon. If he didn't want to get rid of the fat catfish as soon as possible, he would like to order an eleven-toothed harpoon.

As soon as he was about to start the tricycle, Chen Chuanwang stopped. He thought that he had given the small harpoon to Shuihu yesterday, and he needed to prepare another one at home.

So he went back to the store again and bought a small seven-toothed harpoon with a rod, which was not too light or heavy for one person, and the length was just right.
