Chapter 639: Lower Hook, Shanghai Island

"Okay! Then I'll go southeast first."

As Wu Shuisheng spoke, he continued to slowly adjust the direction of the fishing boat.

Chen Hui placed the hooks that Sanpan had prepared next to the fishing boat and shouted towards the cab, "Uncle, I'm done here."

"Got it! Wait for my instructions!"

Wu Shuisheng controls the fishing boat.

Seeing that they were almost there, he turned to look at Chen Hui and shouted, "Lower the buoy!"

"okay!"

Chen Hui answered promptly and clearly.

First throw the buoy down, and then according to Wu Shuisheng's instructions, throw the things into the sea one by one.

Wu Shuisheng controlled the fishing boat and looked back at Chen Hui from time to time.

After lowering the hooks in a basin, Chen Hui threw the final buoy into the sea.

Wu Shuisheng turned around, controlled the fishing boat and shouted loudly to the outside: "Young man, you did a good job."

"Of course, I, Ah Hui, have a very good brain! When I was little, I was a well-known smart kid in the village!"

Chen Huihong, who was watching the fun from the side, rushed to reply first.

"This looks quite fun, can you let me try it later?"

An Wenjing was very interested and looked eager to try it out.

"This hook is quite dangerous. It would be bad if it got caught on your hand."

"If it was before, I would let you try it, but not now."

Chen Hui pointed his chin at An Wenjing's belly and shook his head.

When Chen Huihong saw this, she couldn't help but joke: "It's the belly that carries the baby, not the hand."

"Aunt, please stop laughing at me." An Wenjing said embarrassedly.

"Hey! Stop chatting."

"Chen Hui, put down the hook! Put down the float first, remember?" Wu Shuisheng shouted.

"Remember!"

Chen Hui shouted back.

Another cycle of lowering the buoy, lowering the row of hooks, lowering the stones, lowering the row of hooks, and lowering the buoy began.

"Is there another pot?" Wu Shuisheng asked.

"Yes! There's another one!"

"Got it, wait for my notification."

Wu Shuisheng's voice was heard, and the fishing boat adjusted its direction imperceptibly.

Chen Hui walked into the cab, looked at the sea ahead and asked, "Uncle, how do you determine where to cast the hook?"

"Look at the shore and choose an area with many reefs."

"Then, estimate the distance between you and the row of hooks in front of you."

"If you can't figure it out, it's better to stay away than to get too close."

Wu Shuisheng pointed to the island and answered simply.

Chen Hui looked at the island not far away, but didn't quite understand it.

"It's normal that you don't understand this now. Observe more and you will naturally understand it." Wu Shuisheng said.

"I understand this!"

"It's just like touching money. After touching it a few times, you can tell whether it's real or fake." Chen Hui said.

"Yeah, that's about what it means."

Wu Shuisheng nodded.

He controlled the fishing boat to move forward for another seven or eight minutes and called Chen Hui to go out and prepare to cast the hook.

As soon as Chen Hui returned to the fishing boat, he heard Wu Shuisheng urging him, "Go down! What are you looking at?"

"Didn't you just tell me to prepare? You threw it away without even telling me!"

Chen Hui retorted, picked up the hook and prepared to throw it.

Suddenly he remembered that he had to throw the buoy first, so he quickly picked up the buoy and threw it down.

Then came a set of operations that had already become quite skilled, where the last three hundred or so hooks were lowered into the sea and buoys were dropped as marks.

Three large basins and a total of one thousand hooks were all thrown into the sea.

"Uncle, put it away!" Chen Hui said loudly.

"I heard it, with both ears!"

Wu Shuisheng said as he drove the fishing boat towards the north of the island. The south of the island was mostly large reefs and rocky beaches.

The north side is rare, with a small stretch of sandy beach with a nice slope and soft texture.

"We can't get very close here. We'll have to swim a few meters before we can get ashore."

"I'll take your aunt with me, and you take Wen Jing with you, is that okay?"

Wu Shuisheng stretched his head to take a look, then turned back and asked.

"The sea is quite calm today, so it should be no problem for me to swim across by myself," said Chen Huihong.

"I'd better take you with me. The seaside is different from the open sea."

"Also, what are you going to wear after we get ashore?" Wu Shuisheng asked.

Chen Huihong and An Wenjing looked at each other.

After all, I didn't plan to go into the water when I came out, and I didn't bring any change of clothes.

"Brother Chen Hui, did you bring any clothes?" An Wenjing looked at Chen Hui.

"I brought it. It's fine for you to wear it to cover your buttocks."

"But this is the open sea, there's no one else here, can't I just take off all my clothes and put them on again?"

Chen Hui was talking.

He found two waterproof bags from the cloth bag and put clothes in them for Chen Huihong and An Wenjing.

"I think it works!"

"Your aunt and I will go up first, and you can come down after we are dressed."

"When you come down, we can just walk inside and turn around." Wu Shuisheng also thought this was a good idea.

"Why are there so many troubles? We all grew up by the sea. What are we afraid of?"

"Wenjing and I will go up first. We will call you when we are dressed." said Chen Huihong.

"I think this is a good idea too!" An Wenjing agreed.

Considering that Chen Huihong had never been out to sea and An Wenjing was pregnant.

Since he and Wu Shuisheng were better at swimming and had a better understanding of the situation in the open sea, Chen Hui still insisted on going to the island as a group, one after the other.

After sending An Wenjing and Chen Huihong ashore.

Chen Hui and Wu Shuisheng returned to the fishing boat and took fresh water, charcoal, some food and the tools Chen Hui would need to go to the sea.

When Chen Hui went ashore for the second time, he saw An Wenjing staring at the fishing boat thoughtfully.

He came forward and asked, "Wife, what are you looking at?"

"Well, I always feel that there is something on the fishing boat that we haven't taken." An Wenjing said, looking at the fishing boat.

"what?"

Chen Hui looked at the fishing boat, then at the things in his and Wu Shuisheng's hands, "Nothing is missing!"

"I don't know. It's the kind of thing where the answer is right on the tip of my tongue, but I just can't say it!"

“Anyway, it feels like a very important thing.”

An Wenjing said this, shaking her head in confusion, trying to get the answer out.

but failed.

"Okay! Then you think about it first."

"Tell me when you think of it and I'll get it for you." Chen Hui said with a smile.

"Wow! Come here quickly!"

"There are so many snails here. I just touched one and it was this big!"

"Just now a wave hit me and caught a piece of kelp on my foot. Look!"

"If I can wait until the high tide, I can catch the sea once and catch up with ten times in the village!"

For the first time, Chen Huihong saw how rich the resources were on islands where no one went to the sea.

Holding a frame, he ran over excitedly and said.

"Aunt! I'll take you there!"

"I've been to the island with them, I know how to get more stuff!"

As An Wenjing said this, she was about to take Chen Huihong to the other side.

Chen Hui's mind flashed, and he grabbed An Wenjing's wrist, "Wife, I know what we forgot."

"Really?! What is it?"

"Wenyi! That little brat is still sleeping in the cabin!"
