Chapter 51 Departure!

The school gate was boiling again, and Lu Xiaolu caught a 25-jin blue grouper.

70 yuan a catty, 1750 yuan for this one fish alone.

The old horse had been waiting here for a long time, and rushed to the front of the line immediately, almost being squeezed into the big basin.

He wanted this blue grouper but didn't dare to ask for it, it was too expensive.

If you put it in a restaurant, you have to sell it for at least 2800 yuan. I'm afraid that if no one buys it and it dies, it will be over.

Those high-quality bass groupers are his goal.

Lu Xiaolu's hands were sore, there was no other way, and he didn't expect to attract so many big fish.

Those big fish alone filled the big basin, and some redwood fish were still put in the carriage, and Shirley kept pouring water on them before bringing them back.

There are a lot of sequoia fish, only 16 yuan a catty, and they sell very quickly.

Soon, the redwood fish was sold out, and then the sea bass was the most sought-after, mainly because of the big customer Lao Ma, and now they also got an electric tricycle for buying fish in the store.

"Little donkey, are there no small fish today?" An old man stretched his head and looked around. In the past, those small fish and crabs were delivered every day.

The uncles and aunts around agreed one after another, and they bought the fish and did not leave, just waiting here for the fish to be delivered.

Lu Xiaolu wiped his sweat with his crutch: "I can't give it away now, I want to keep it for use."

"Oh." The old man walked away unwillingly, saying that he was a small fish, but he was actually as long as a palm.

There's no other way, Lu Xiaolu and Xueli are living a tight life now, and if they can save a little, those small fish are kept in the live water tank of the Golden Sailfish, and they haven't been brought back.

In the end, the big blue grouper was bought by an old man wearing a vest and slippers.

Lu Xiaolu stared at the green watch in the old man's hand. Although he didn't know the brand, it looked really good.

"Ah~ I'm exhausted." He just stood up and stretched, but he rushed so hard that he almost fell down.

Shirley was still flipping through her bag, counting the money one by one, mumbling all the time.

"Five, ten, eleven"

Lu Xiaolu stretched out his head and saw that the good guys were full, ranging from red banknotes to coins, ten yuan and five yuan were the most.

At this time, an old man pushed a car and passed by the road.

"Roasted yam, three yuan for one piece, ten yuan for three yuan, mom, I want to eat roasted yam~"

"Eat, eat a big piece! The counting is messed up again!" Shirley looked up and glared at the old man, chased after him, and bought two pieces of roasted yam.

At some point, the two of them fell in love with the feeling of counting money on the street, and they went to fewer cafes.

The money for a dozen makes the tourists around look dumbfounded, the eyeballs of the vendors are red, and the passing classmates are sour.

"Cash 2565, Alipay 2800, WeChat 6536, a total of 11901."

"So much?" Lu Xiaolu opened his mouth wide when he heard that, and there was still a piece of roasted yam in his mouth.

"Ang, let's go and buy a fishing rod."

"Ok!"

The two came to the fishing tackle shop excitedly, and only bought two sets of fishing rods. The reels were not cheap. The boss said that it was okay to catch sharks, but they were too big and ugly.

The 1 yuan I just earned is gone. This is the legendary spending of money like water.

Introduced by the boss, the two successfully bought seawater ice cubes and delivered them directly to the ship for 2000 yuan.

It wasn't until they set off that they discovered how expensive it was to go out to sea once.

In addition to things for fishing, there are also food and drink, bedding, and toiletries.

I bought a small-capacity rice cooker, which can cook three or four bowls of rice, and it cost 450.

The cheapest I can buy for an induction cooker for cooking is 120.

Two quilts, one big mat, 200 yuan.

There were also some messy purchases of rice, oil, salt, soy sauce, vinegar and tea, and the two of them didn't even have a coin left.

I really had no money to buy mineral water, so I boiled plain water at home, and the teapots of Lu Xiaolu and Xueli were full.

"Golden Sailfish, set sail!"

"Beep~" This time it was Lu Xiaolu who was pulling the whistle.

After advancing according to the set goal, Lu Xiaolu sat behind and controlled the crayfish to follow the Golden Sailfish. The speed was not slow at all, and he even surpassed it.

It was the first time to go to sea, and I didn't choose a place too far away. Under the economical speed, the itinerary is expected to arrive in three hours.

It is easy to get sleepy in a car, and the same is true in a boat.

Especially when the mobile phone signal is getting worse and worse.

Letting the crayfish sit on the tires on the side of the boat, Lu Xiaolu greeted Xue Li and went to sleep.

Shirley was having fun on the public wireless channel, listening to other captains chatting about how many fish were caught by which boat, and which boat was caught by the coast guard with illegal fishing nets. It was very interesting.

It was nine o'clock in the evening when they arrived at the designated place, Lu Xiaolu also woke up, and was controlling the crayfish to find fish.

The water depth here is 400 meters, but the bottom of the water is not bright at all. Some fish, shrimps and corals will glow, and it is clearer than the shallow water area, which is very beautiful.

A crayfish with eyes like the sun crawled into this sea area. At first, the guys who were looking for food were scared and hid in the coral reef. Seeing that it was not dangerous, it crawled out to continue enjoying the delicious meal.

Looking at those big fat lobsters, Lu Xiaolu was very greedy, so he asked Xue Li to put down the anchor cable, and he put the bait in the ground cage he brought and threw it down.

The water here is too deep, the terrain is rugged, the ocean current is too fast, gillnets can only be placed in the middle water layer, and the guys on the bottom of the sea still rely on small and flexible crab cages and eel cages.

As for whether the lobster drills or not, it is not something he can control.

The crayfish continued to crawl on the bottom of the sea, and found two big tuna nearby. Their eyes were really big, they should be big eyes.

These two guys are eating scallops, hermit crabs and the like on the seabed.

Their bodies are too large, and it is not an easy task to chase the nimble little fish.

It was less than 50 meters away from the left side of the hull, and there was no need to lift the anchor, just let Shirley move it.

"Okay, here it is, stop." Lu Xiaolu stood on the deck, commanding with a walkie-talkie.

The Golden Sailfish landed steadily above the two bigeye tunas.

"Work."

The two fishing rods were fixed in the fishing holes at the bow, two sardines were caught from the living water tank and hung up, and then the line was set vertically, which Shirley could complete by herself.

Lu Xiaolu took out a box of fish from the ice bin, the ones that had been bitten and crippled.

There are pike, perch, yellow croaker, and even grouper.

After confirming the position again, Lu Xiaolu took a knife and began to cut the bait in sections. If it is too small, it will be washed away by the ocean current.

Throwing the fish down piece by piece, the three big pike were gone, and there was still no movement on the fishing rod, Lu Xiaolu's heart was bleeding.

The two tunas were very happy to see the delicious food from the sky, and a large piece of fish was gone in one bite.
