The daily life of a tribal leader

"Chief, the fishing net you asked us to experiment with is ready."

At the morning meeting in the parliament hall, Liu Xiuyu brought a surprise to Lin Yun.

"Really! How tough is the fishing net?"

Lin Yun showed a surprised expression when he heard this.

Since the lake began to freeze, he ordered fishing activities in Mianlu Lake to be suspended.

As more fish and shrimp baskets were put in, the fish in the lake became smarter and learned to bite and smash through the fish baskets, and then share the bait inside.

Coupled with the fact that most of the tribe's manpower was used in tribe construction and defense lines, Lin Yun simply stopped this inefficient fishing method.

Most of the fish we eat every day are dried and pickled products collected during the harvest season.

Even if there is fresh fish, it is caught from one’s own fish pond. We can’t catch all the fish and shrimps in the fish pond and wait for them to reproduce.

Has Lin Yun given up fishing completely? That's not true. He asked the textile team led by Liu Xiuyu to spend some time studying the materials of fishing nets very early on, and they were able to weave a net that was difficult for big fish to break.

After so long, I thought this plan was ruined.

"I used the maximum strength to tear it, and the effect was good. There were no tears."

Liu Xiuyu is also an awakened person now, and the strength in her hands has naturally increased.

Hearing this, Lin Yun became even more interested.

"Where is that fishing net? Let's all go take a look? If the results are good, the tribe can have a big winter fishing activity."

"Okay."

"This activity is good."

Everyone was in a bit of high spirits.

Winter fishing, friends from the south used to be very interested in it. It is said that one net can catch hundreds of thousands of catties of fish, but I don’t know if it is true.

In the square, the woven fishing net was already lying there quietly.

This fishing net specially designed for winter fishing is gray-green, woven with fist-sized diamond-shaped grids, with a deep net belly in the middle and long wings on both sides.

A hemp rope as thick as a thumb is added to the edge of the wings. On one side of the hemp rope is a heavy stone, and on the other side is a hollow wooden ball painted with red paint.

"Chief, this is the new material we have developed."

Liu Xiuyu handed a long gray-green thread to Lin Yun.

Lin Yun took the thread and pulled hard. The rope still had some elasticity, but it couldn't be pulled.

Thinking about it, he was not much stronger than Aunt Xiuyu, so he silently handed the rope to someone beside him.

Lin Mo took the rope, rolled it around the palms of his hands a few times, and gradually increased his strength to pull.

Thousands of pounds of force were used, but the rope did not change.

Lin Mo raised his eyebrows. It was indeed very tough. He could try it into a whip in the future.

The force of tens of thousands of kilograms continued to increase, the string tightened, and slowly, the tiny fibers were broken.

"Peng—"

The string became two pieces.

"Not bad, you can try winter fishing."

Lin Mo loosened the thread without changing his expression and said to his wife.

"Try it for me."

Lan Chenyu couldn't wait to take the rope from the boss's hand, and with great strength, his face turned red before he broke the string.

"call--"

Finally not embarrassed, Lan Chenyu let out a breath.

"Very good, Sister Xiuyu, I'll give your textile team a credit. Don't worry, everyone will be rewarded."

For meritorious officials, Lin Yun would not be stingy with some extraneous things, and only hoped that they could make more practical things.

"Thank you, chief!"

The girls in the textile team showed bright smiles and cheered loudly.

"Brother Zhou Ze, ask the security team to leave necessary manpower on the protective line. Everyone else should go to Mianlu Lake to prepare for winter fishing. Let's catch a big one."

"Sister Qi Qiu, let everyone prepare the pots and pans for a full fish feast."

As long as the fishing net is not broken by the big fish, Lin Yun is very confident about the fish catch in Mianlu Lake.

"Okay, Chief."

After receiving the order, the two went down to make preparations.

Lin Mo put the fishing net into his backpack and headed to Mianlu Lake with his wife.

On the shore of Mianlu Lake, more than a hundred combat-type men had gathered together, and there was a familiar figure among them.

"Isn't that Yang Tao? Why..."

Lin Yun hesitated to speak. Yang Tao's face was now covered in bruises and half of his face was swollen. He looked as if he had been abused.

"He's a bit weak. Zhou Ze specially ordered additional training programs for him."

Lin Mo glanced at Yang Tao and did not say that he wanted Zhou Ze to pay special attention to Yang Tao. He is very considerate towards the children of his old friends.

"When he leaves this time, his strength will definitely be completely transformed. Look at his current mental outlook, he is particularly energetic."

That's true. Although he pulled the wound at the corner of his mouth from time to time, showing a painful expression, his black eyes were bright and clear, without any haze.

"Yunyun, wait for me on the shore."

"Okay, Brother Mo, be safe!"

Lin Yun waited obediently on the shore. He was very self-aware and strength work was not his specialty.

Lin Mo asked everyone to wait for him for a while.

He himself slowly circled around the lake, feeling the life energy under the ice.

The winter is too cold and there is a lack of oxygen under the ice. Fish, big and small, have become sluggish and rarely move underneath.

Lin Mo selected a suitable fishing area and marked the net outlet and ice holes.

"Each of you stand in your corresponding position, make an opening at the place I marked, and then transfer the bamboo poles to lower the net in turn. After doing this, gather at my place."

"You guys, go wait at the network outlet."

Lin Mo divided the crowd into two parts and stood at the selected network entrance to get off the network.

After hearing the order, the people came to both sides, one person stood at each mark, and then punched holes in the marks. These holes are just for passing the net and do not need to be dug very big.

Lin Mo first dug a large rectangular hole into the net entrance with a weapon, and then took out the fishing net.

There is a long hemp rope at one end of the fishing net, and a long wooden pole is tied to the rope. The length of the wooden pole is exactly the length between the two marks.

Lin Mo and Lan Chenyu delivered the wooden poles one by one.

When the next person takes over, transfer the wooden pole to the next person in the same way.

Lin Mo and Lin Mo ran to the outlet of the net after it entered the water. The hole for the net outlet must be dug into the ground very large. If the fish is too small to come out, it will be a joke, and the quality of the fish will not be good.

Finally, the two wooden poles meet at the net outlet.

"Come on, let's push together. Get ready to pull back."

Lin Mo twisted two hemp ropes into one, tied it around his waist, and handed the remaining hemp rope to the person behind him.

Everyone followed suit and tied the rope around their waists.

"One, two, three, pull~"

After hearing the command, the last person began to pull back.

As Lin Mo and the others retreated, the two wings of the fishing net were pulled out of the water.
