Reborn in the Millennium: Building a Fortune from Fishing

Chapter 519: 5 Fishhook Orders

Chapter 519: Five Hundred Thousand Fish Hooks Order
It was already half past ten in the evening, and the four breams had completely worn down the brothers’ spirits.

After dinner, he sat on the tarpaulin and became silent again.

When fishermen gather together, it’s just like the five people sitting in a row in the Internet cafe. If they win, it’s okay, but if they lose, they become more and more silent.

When I left the Internet cafe in the morning, I had to sit at five tables for breakfast.

At half past eleven, another grass carp came and ate corn.

At twelve o’clock, the black carp and bream came twice, which finally boosted the morale.

These fish all ate the corn on the hook, which means that Qin Dahe’s strategy was correct, but there were no grass carp in the river.

“Dahe, how about we go fishing on the island?” Erhu asked tentatively. He might get scolded if he went back tonight.

He didn’t even do his excavator work, but came out for night fishing, and he hasn’t loaded any goods yet.

“Let’s try it for another day. I heard it’s raining in Jiangxi.”

“Ok.”

“Brother, bring a spotlight tomorrow and let’s go fishing for silver carp and bighead carp.” Silly boy made a suggestion. It is still possible to fish for silver carp and bighead carp at night.

When it is too hot during the day, Gangzi and his friends will choose to go fishing at night.

“Emmmm, that’s fine. I’ll take it with me first. If there’s no cargo tomorrow, I’ll go fishing for silver carp and bighead carp in the middle of the night.”

He had had enough of the torture. He understood that fishing for blue carp was not always smooth sailing, but he didn’t catch a single one tonight.

The bell rang again, and as soon as the fishing rod was in hand, I began to sigh, little fish.

The force of pulling was not enough to resist.

“MLGB, what the hell is that?” Qin Dahe cursed angrily, feeling like he was hanging on a tree branch.

I just reached out and pulled it. The scoop net didn’t get wet at all tonight because I pulled it all up with my hands.

When it was really pulled up, I was immediately surprised.

“Ce, there’s still this bucket of water (surprise), we caught a river turtle.” He happily tied it up with a rope, and it was the MVP of tonight.

The other two looked envious. After a whole night of fishing for bream, they finally caught a rare fish.

“What to eat?”

“Corn, let’s change to double-hook corn. It’s better to use the reverse bottom.”

“Row.”

Everyone started to move again. Tonight, no one caught any fish, whether it was snail meat or snails, so it would be better to replace them all with corn.

After finishing the work, I continued to cast, and then there was deathly silence again.

The three of them sat quietly inside the mosquito net, stretching their muscles from time to time, otherwise their buttocks would hurt from sitting.

It wasn’t until three o’clock that I caught a bite, and it turned out to be crucian carp.

The night wind blows gently on the body, cool but also makes people sleepy.

The brothers looked at each other and silently checked the time on their phones.

“Are you going to accept it or not?”

“receive.”

“I’m not fishing anymore, damn.”

If I keep guarding like this, I might as well go home and sleep.

At this time, everyone got excited and quickly packed up their things.

“Throw away all the fishing rods and come over tomorrow night to fish for silver carp and bighead carp directly.”

Fifteen fishing rods, and only a few catches in one night. I really feel sorry for them running around.

Qin Dahe felt that these fishing rods were too unlucky, so he threw them by the river to dry and then burned them tomorrow to be done with it.

There was no fishing rod and the catch was small, so I just took everything with me on one trip.

As the diesel engine started, it turned around and rushed towards the village entrance.

When they arrived in the yard, Qin Dahe turned on the lights and asked everyone to keep the noise down.

The dog was awake, but didn’t bark when it smelled the familiar scent.

“Each of you take two fish back. Take your pick.”

“Give me that five-jin grass carp. I’ll take it back and make smoked fish.” Erhu said indifferently.

Grass carp will not taste good if it is too small.

Silly Kid asked for two breams and gave the rest to his eldest brother, since he often came to eat there.

The river turtle has been tied up and placed in a bucket and then moved into the workshop. If we get up late tomorrow, it will easily be sun-dried to death if left in the yard.

After packing up their things, the two went back. It was only an hour before dawn, so they had to go back to sleep quickly. They could still do some work during the day.

Qin Dahe was holding a towel and preparing to take a shower and go to bed when he heard crying sounds from the room. After a while, Yanyan came out yawning.

“Brother, why are you back so early?” He held the bottle in both hands, like a ruthless milk-shaking machine.

“Yeah.” He said hello reluctantly and went to take a shower.

Yanyan understood as soon as she heard this that her man would not gain much tonight.

“Tsk tsk, you’re still forcing yourself to smile. It’s not easy.” The voice was not loud, but he could just hear it from the back door.

Hearing the sarcasm, Qin Dahe thought to himself, I will deal with you later and make sure you don’t sleep well.

The man took a quick shower. Because his hair was short, he didn’t need to blow-dry it. He simply wiped it clean and went back to the house.

The two kids leaned against the bed, drinking milk in big gulps, holding the bottle in both hands.

Yanyan took two diapers and waited listlessly at the side.
“Brother, how many fish did you catch?”

“There are not many, just one river turtle.” He said angrily and lay down beside his daughter.

“Oh, nothing.” She covered her mouth and laughed. Usually, she would bring at least several large shipments when she went out.

“There are several.”

“How many?”

“.”

“How many? Tell me.”

“There are also three breams, a crucian carp, and a river turtle. That’s quite a lot.”

The two cubs had finished drinking the milk and lay down right where they were.

The couple started changing diapers.

I just threw the ones I took off on the ground and would do it tomorrow.

“roll roll roll.”

“Stop it, it’s almost dawn.” Yanyan shuddered. Who could withstand such a sudden divine move?

“Hurry up and get it out for me so I can go to sleep.” He hugged her and turned her over.

At this time, Yanyan was lying on top of him, and the two of them looked at each other.

“I’m asleep, rock yourself.”

“You” she bit her lip. It was too much.

But I still did it obediently.

When I woke up, it was already noon.

He really felt comfortable last night. After they did it, Yanyan cleaned him up. The one-stop service was absolutely perfect.

When I walked out of the room, I found that there was no sun and the weather was gloomy. I was suddenly shocked. Damn, is it going to rain?
I haven’t caught enough fish yet, so I’ve been keeping the bait for several days.

“Mom, is there any food?” It was strange that the two kids were not in the yard.

“Go get it yourself. It’s in the kitchen.” Mother Qin’s voice came from the house. “Please help me boil some water later and steam the buns this afternoon.”

“steamed stuffed bun?”

“I stuffed it with some mutton, let’s see if it tastes good.”

“Oh.”

The bream I grilled at noon tasted just okay, the meat was a little bit soft.

The bream I caught last night was not very big, and it was barely enough to eat two bowls of rice.

I don’t dare to complain about the food being bad, for fear of being criticized.

He had just finished his meal and the fire in the furnace had not yet been lit when he received a call from Hubei asking him to replenish some medicinal wine and fish hooks.

“I’m out of hooks. I’ll have someone make some.” He lit the fire and continued asking, “How many size 1, 2, and 3 hooks do you want?”

There were only tens of thousands of hooks in the original batch. He kept a thousand for himself and gave away the rest.

“You need 30,000 hooks for sizes one and two, 10,000 for size three, and 1,000 for sizes four and five.”

“Okay, that’s awesome.”

“Haha, hooks are useful, and no one wants to save that money.” Brother Wan said with a smile.

A bag of bait for silver carp and bighead carp costs twenty yuan. Who would be so idle as to save a few cents on fish hooks? The harder the better.

Nowadays, most people tie the double hooks of the sub-line at home or in a fishing tackle shop, and the manual work is not expensive.

He hung up the phone and added two more pieces of firewood.

I simply went to the yard to get some fresh air, and then called Da Liu and all the fishing tackle shops to ask if they needed more fish hooks.

Those fishing tackle stores that didn’t ship the first batch and directly asked four agents to divide the fish hooks must be brought with them to this batch.

I made nearly forty calls in more than an hour, and my phone almost ran out of battery.

Fortunately, I changed the package, otherwise I would have lost dozens of dollars in just a short while.

A large number of orders have been recorded in the small notebook, with the smallest order being for one thousand and the largest being for four or five thousand.

Those fishing tackle stores will try out the hooks that cost only a few cents if they hear they are made of tungsten steel.

People nowadays pursue high technology and like new materials. The gimmick of tungsten steel can also make the leader line sell for more money.

At worst, we can just take it slow. The inventory of several hundred or a thousand yuan can still hold up. Qin Dahe’s minimum starting quantity is one thousand.

Then he sent the order to Boss Wu and told him that he would transfer the money later.

There were three hundred thousand fish hooks in all, and he added another two hundred thousand to the stock himself, which made five hundred thousand hooks.

The average price is around 1.2 cents, and the payment is 60,000 yuan. The main sales force is numbers 1, 2, and 3.

Numbers 4 and 5 are still a bit exaggerated. They are not suitable for fishing silver carp and bighead carp. They are too heavy and cannot be sucked in.

Once the basic materials have been developed for ten years and light steel fish hooks are widely used, the hook sizes for silver carp and bighead carp will become bigger and bigger.

It takes a week to produce these 500,000 fish hooks. Mr. Wu also said that the processing is too difficult and it takes a lot of time to cut the wire and sharpen it.

Qin Dahe then transferred the money using his mobile phone. UnionPay now supports SMS transfers, but it is a bit troublesome as you need to enter the card number, ID number, password, and make a phone confirmation.

I had nothing to do and felt a little depressed thinking about the fishing situation last night, so I went to the warehouse to get the pure gold magic.

No bait is useful. I just mixed some silk powder and chicken feed into a lump, and went to the bait scattering spot on the plank road to fish. I caught fish very quickly.

The two cats followed, “Meow!”

“Wait a minute.” He had just caught a big crucian carp and threw it directly onto the plank road. Sang Biao hugged him and ran away quickly.

This big crucian carp weighs at least three or two taels, enough for it to have a meal.

Feifei didn’t move and continued to stare at him.

“Both. I’ll make you fat to death.” The orange cat’s body shape is a bit exaggerated. It’s not the kind of fat, but the kind with broad shoulders and a big waist.

No matter how fat it is, even Sang Biao may not be able to beat it, which is rare.

He caught another big crucian carp, weighing more than 4 taels. Feifei then left with the fish in his mouth, satisfied.

After fishing in my own fish pond for a while, I felt much better.

Just then, my mother-in-law and Yanyan came in with the child, who seemed to have fallen asleep.

“Brother, why are you fishing in your own fish pond?” Yanyan tilted her head and glanced at him. “Did you come back to make up for it today after missing out last night?”

She held the baby in her arms and didn’t rush back to the house. She said with a smile, “What’s the difference between this and getting wronged outside and then going home to beat your wife?”

“Get out of here, get out of here. I’ll beat you up, believe it or not.” This bitch has a really vicious tongue.

He put away his fishing rod in a huff. “It’s already two o’clock. Why are you back just now?”

“I played too much. I just went to Baoer’s house to play.”

Qin Dahe washed and took the child from his mother-in-law.

The two of them went into the house and put the baby away. After everyone left, he looked at his silly wife with a bad look.

Yanyan was actually a little eager to try, she did it on purpose, so that her brother would…
As expected, he was suppressed at the first encounter.

“Brother, be gentle.”

“Get lost! You’re trying to take advantage of me again. I won’t fall for it.” He said with a dark face. Seeing the woman’s flushed face, he knew what was going on. She had learned her lesson.
