Fisherwoman: After my divorce, I became rich by fishing at sea

Chapter 603 The Fish Thief

"Hey!"

Jack roared, and the figure fled even faster, his limbs almost leaving afterimages, and soon disappeared into the jungle.

"What is that?"

Bai Qianzhou couldn't see it clearly at first, but Fu Wan recognized it.

But she was still a little incredible.

Good God, if she hadn't seen it, that thing would look like a fox!

"fox?"

Bai Qianzhou was very confused. Where did the fox come from in this place?

However, Jack's face turned red with anger.

According to his description in both Chinese and English, there are not only foxes in the jungle, but also hares, and even deeper into the jungle, there is a group of wild deer.

Because there are clear regulations here that prohibit harming animals, these animals are not only not afraid of people, but are also particularly rampant.

Not to mention stealing fish and shrimp, it is also possible to run to a small shop and grab coconuts.

"Damn fox, he stole our first fish!"

Normally I would just steal some small fish, but this is the first fish I caught today.

In Chinese, that's a good start!

The more Jack thought about it, the angrier he became. He wanted to drop his fishing rod and run into the jungle to find the fox and fight him.

"It's okay, it's stolen, we can just go fishing again."

Fu Wan threw the fishing rod out nonchalantly. To be honest, she thought the fox was quite clever.

All things have spirits. The fish in this ocean can be caught not only by humans but also by animals.

It’s just that the little fox’s method of stealing food is not very clever.

It's just a small animal, and its only thought is filling its stomach.

After being comforted by Fu Wan, Jack was no longer so angry. Of course, it wasn't Fu Wan's words that completely extinguished his anger, but he himself, caught a fish!

"Oh my god, there are fish!"

Jack spoke Chinese and English at random, and his hands were turning the gear around the fishing line rapidly.

Not only did he catch a fish, but Bai Qianzhou on another reef also started pulling the fishing rod.

In the few months since returning from Fujia Village, Jack has basically been fishing whenever he is not working. In addition, Fu Ming and others taught him when he was in Fujia Village before, so his fishing skills are very proficient.

After only five or six minutes, the fish was pulled out of the water.

Fu Wan took a hand net and scooped up a mackerel weighing about two kilograms.

"Wow, biu tefu!"

Jack shouted exaggeratedly and then took out the hook as quickly as possible.

Fu Wan had encountered many mackerel before, but for Jack, it was the first time he caught one.

I really don't know what kind of fish this kid got after making himself look so ugly.

"Haha, when I go back tonight, I'm going to let them taste the power of my fish!"

Jack laughed several times. This time he was smart. After he unhooked the mackerel, he put it into the fish box filled with ice.

He simply put the fish box at his feet.

See if that nasty fox dares to steal his fish!

"Mackerel is tuna's favorite food. When the sun isn't so strong, we'll go out on the boat and try our luck."

Fu Wan had just finished telling Jack about this when Bai Qianzhou also pulled up the fish.

The fish pulled up this time actually aroused Fu Wan's interest.

It was completely black with distinct fins, and it looked like I was seeing it for the first time.

Judging from the effort Bai Qianzhou put in to scoop it up, the fish probably weighed three or four pounds.

"Wait, let me see what kind of fish this is?"

Fu Wan walked over with the fishing rod, and when she got closer she could see the fish clearly.

"Well, do you know him?"

Fu Wan nodded and carried the fish box next to her over.

"Black rockfish, commonly known as blackhead fish. It has a big head and big eyes, and its entire body is black."

This fish is known as the top grouper in the north in China. It is ferocious by nature and generally feeds on small fish and shrimps.

The flesh of blackhead fish is garlic-like and firm, making it incredibly delicious when stewed. Finally, I caught a fish I could take home to Fu Fengying.

"As expected of you, Comrade Xiaobai!"

Bai Qianzhou felt a little embarrassed by Fu Wan's praise, and the tips of his ears turned red.

"No, I just got lucky."

The blackhead fish could survive in the sea water after being brought ashore, so Bai Qianzhou carefully put it into the fish box. Then the few of them caught two sea bass, one of which was not even as wide as a palm and did not meet the standard for taking it home, so Fu Wan threw it back into the sea.

After fishing for more than an hour, Fu Wan felt a little thirsty, so she simply put away the fishing rod and ran to pick up the watermelon that Jack bought.

I don’t know if it’s because it’s out of season, but the pattern on this watermelon isn’t as clear as that of summer watermelons, and the stem is dry.

When he saw Fu Wan bringing the watermelon over, Jack remembered that the knife he brought was still in the luggage bag.

Just as he was about to tell Fu Wan about this, he heard another noise from the fishing rod.

So he immediately forgot about the watermelon. When the sea bream was pulled up on the fishing rod, he turned around to show off to Fu Wan, only to find that Fu Wan was hitting the watermelon with her fist.

Yes, hammer the watermelon.

"Wan, that's not the way to open it. I have a knife."

As soon as she finished speaking, Fu Wan put her hands on the middle of the watermelon and broke it in two instantly.

"What did you say?"

"Oh, nothing. Wan, is this Chinese Kung Fu?!"

Jack was shocked. Oh my God, it was the first time he saw someone open a watermelon with their hands, and open it so evenly!

It turned out that Auntie didn’t lie to him, there really is Chinese Kung Fu!

Fu Wan was speechless when she saw his eyes change from shock to admiration.

I don't know what this kid is thinking about.

Almost everyone in rural China can cut a watermelon with bare hands.

Who hasn’t opened a few small watermelons like this when they were a kid?

However, the watermelon in the village is not the Qilin watermelon of later generations. It has a common name called seeded watermelon. Not only can the flesh be eaten, but the seeds can also be washed, cooked, dried and cracked during the New Year.

The leftover melon rind can be used for cooking, and the green outer layer can be peeled off and cooked into pig feed or fed directly to cattle. (Image of seed melon from the Internet, please delete if infringement occurs) Because Fujia Village is close to the sea, few people grow this kind of melon. Only Wang Xiuer and a few others in the village have the time to grow some.

But Fu Wan had eaten a lot of it when she was a child. Ye Jianguo’s family grew it every year and would carry a few baskets of it over every year.

Thinking of the scene when her brothers and sisters competed to pinch the watermelons to cut them when they were young, Fu Wan couldn't help but smile.

The melon Jack bought was only the size of a basketball and not particularly sweet. The three of them ate a little each and then shared half of it.

What’s interesting is that just when Fu Wan was thinking about what to do with the watermelon rind, the fish-stealing fox came over again. Perhaps it smelled the fragrance of the watermelon, so it simply picked up the rind and ran away.

Fu Wan looked at its running figure in amazement. It was a pity that it was not in China, otherwise she could take it back and raise it for two days.

After eating the watermelon, the three of them packed up and went to where they had docked the boat before. It was already four o'clock in the afternoon. Fu Wan took a look at the catch in the fish box. In addition to the blackhead sea bream and sea bass, there were also five or six mackerels weighing one or two kilograms.

"Let's go fishing for golden tuna!"
