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

The weather was still sunny in the afternoon. Fu Wan was afraid that the sun would be too strong, so she not only armed herself fully, but also made Ye Xiaocui and Shen Lingling wear hats and sleeves.

The sleeves are made of worn-out clothes, with a small elastic cord added at the front and back ends, which is very practical.

The boat was now driven by Boss Fu. Fu Ming and Fu Liang were originally competing for the first place. One wanted to take them to the deserted island where the cage exploded before, while the other was really anxious because he hadn't touched the rudder for a month.

But both of them were sent to the back by Boss Fu to prepare the bait.

Are you kidding? When it comes to wanting to sail a boat, who has his idea?

God knows how much he missed the feeling of holding the steering wheel when he was a ghost!

When Boss Fu said he was going out to sea this afternoon, he planned to do longline fishing.

The so-called longline fishing is to tie many equally spaced branches to a main line, with hooks and baits tied to the ends of the branches. The main line is decorated with foam and small flags for identifying directions. Fishermen can control the depth and width of the hook by controlling the length of the buoy rope.

The reason why Fu Wan had never tried longline fishing before was that it was too troublesome. She had to prepare the hooks, arrange the lines, and prepare the bait.

But Mr. Fu has been a fisherman for most of his life and is very passionate about fishing.

The bait for longline fishing this time was small fish bought at the dock. Fu Wan remembered that in her previous life she had seen a short video using octopus as bait, so she specially brought two half-grown octopuses with her.

Why do I have to say it quietly? Just look at Ye Xiaocui’s expression now and you will know.

Ye Xiaocui’s eyes were about to pop out of her head!

It would be fine if he just ate the octopus himself, but now this prodigal daughter wants to use it as bait!

Pretending not to see Ye Xiaocui's murderous gaze, Fu Wan used a knife to cut the octopus into small portions, while not forgetting to call Shen Lingling back to the cabin.

This naughty kid was so excited because it was his first time going out to sea that he jumped around for a while and then squatted on the side and vomited.

Now all the food for lunch is fed to the fish.

Fu Ming and Fu Liang were busy hanging the small fish in the bucket on the fishing hook.

"Awan, where did you learn that octopuses can also fish? Don't let yourself be fooled. It would be a waste of these two octopuses!"

Thinking of the taste of the stir-fried octopus, Fu Ming couldn't help swallowing his saliva.

Ye Xiaocui also nodded in agreement, "Yes, I have never seen anyone use octopus as bait."

Fu Liang didn't think so. He had followed Fu Wan out several times. Even though he had never seen an octopus used as bait, he had seen Fu Wan's luck.

"Aunt, you have to trust Awan. She won't go back empty-handed if she takes action!"

Fu Wan proudly hung the octopus segments on the hook, "Brother Liang has good taste!"

As they were talking, Boss Fu had already driven the boat to the sea area where he usually operated. It was already two or three o'clock in the afternoon. Due to the hot weather, there were few boats on the sea.

Fu Ming and Fu Liang each started to sort out the fishing hooks with baits. Fu Wan and Ye Xiaocui did not join in the fun and waited for the boat to circle around and approach the deserted island, ready to take Shen Lingling off the boat.

Boss Fu planned to let Fu Ming and Fu Liang take the boat to longline fishing, while he would follow Ye Xiaocui, Fu Wan and Shen Lingling to the deserted island for some fun.

The deserted island was not far from the sea where they were working, and Fu Wan didn't dare to go there alone before.

Now that there are people around, she feels braver. Even if there are snakes, she believes she won’t be so unlucky!

Boss Fu stopped the boat. When they were still some distance away from the deserted island, there was a shallow beach. Shen Lingling became energetic again.

"Mom, look what's over there!"

Fu Wan looked in the direction and saw that the wind and waves last night were so strong that the beach was covered with sea urchins!

Ye Xiaocui turned around and went to the cabin to get another big snakeskin bag. This sea urchin is a good thing!

Sea urchins are invertebrates that live in shallow ocean waters. Their bodies are covered with long spines, making them look like round balls of thorns.

Sea urchins are very nutritious. They taste great whether eaten directly or used to make steamed eggs.

Shen Lingling was a very aggressive child. She relied on the small gloves Fu Wan had given her to reach out and grab.

Fortunately, Boss Fu reacted quickly and lifted her up by the back of her clothes.

"This sea urchin can sting you. It's going to prick your hand. Are you afraid?"

Shen Lingling was frightened by Boss Fu's words, but she remained stubborn.

"I'm not afraid!"

"I have gloves!"

But Fu Wan put her down on the sand without any hesitation and said, "Stay here and don't catch sea urchins!"

"Are you afraid that the sea urchin spines will blacken your hand and pierce through it?"

Shen Lingling felt that Fu Wan didn't seem to be trying to scare her, so she pouted and ran to pick up the shells.

Children are easy to fool. Fu Wan joined Ye Xiaocui's team with a pair of tongs. She first used the tongs to break the long spines of the sea urchin, then picked up the sea urchin and threw it into the bag.

Boss Fu was too impatient to deal with this, so he took a few traps, threw some bait in them and prepared to put them under the water plants.

I'll wait until tomorrow before going out to sea to collect the traps. Maybe I'll get a different harvest.

A large bag of sea urchins was picked up, and Shen Lingling's shouting was heard not far away.

"Mom, come quickly!"

"There are fish here!"

Fu Wan looked up and found that the child was too close to the beach, so she quickly dropped the tongs and ran there.

"Shen Lingling! Don't get too close to the beach!"

When she ran to Shen Lingling and hugged her away, her arms were wet and she realized that her daughter was holding a grouper weighing two or three pounds in her arms.

It had red spots, a long and flat body, and two big eyes that were staring at Shen Lingling's hand with its tail from time to time.

"Where did the red grouper come from?"

Seeing that her daughter's face was red from being hit by the fish's tail, Fu Wan threw the fish into the bucket of shells beside her with heartache, and quickly scooped some sea water with her hands to wipe Shen Lingling's face clean.

"Mom, am I awesome?"

"Wow, this red grouper fish is delicious. Mom will steam it for you when we get home!"

Who would refuse delicious food? Shen Lingling broke free from Fu Wan's hand and said, "Mom, I'm going to pick up shells!"

She wanted to go see if there were any fish to catch, but she couldn't tell her mother that she wasn't going to pick up shells!

Fu Wan knew what she was thinking, so she filled the bucket with some sea water and followed.

If this red grouper is not put back into the water, it will be in trouble.

The red grouper is not as valuable as the eastern grouper, but it is definitely more expensive than the tiger grouper. Last time, Ye Xiaocui sold several groupers, and she must keep this red grouper at all costs.

Fu Wan also accompanied Shen Lingling to dig some clams, and dug a lot of sandworms in the sand nearby.

Sandworms, also known as sandworms, like to lurk in sand and mud holes. Steamed sandworms with pepper and salt are a good dish. Although Fu Wan doesn't like to eat them very much, Fu Ming likes them very much.

"Mom, is that a big coconut?"

Shen Lingling felt a little hot, so she hid behind a tree on the beach and played with ants.

This time she wanted to drink some water, and when she turned around she saw a coconut tree not far away.

That must be coconut, which she had seen Shen Guangzong drink before!
