You said you would tell fortunes, so you can catch ghosts and exterminate zombies easily?

Everyone took a taxi to Jiangwei.

Lin Jingyu was the first to pay for the taxi fare. He also bought a bunch of delicious food and stuffed it in the car, and asked Wu Hongliang to take good care of Su Chen and Apeng on the boat.

Wu Hongliang asked quietly and found out that Su Chen was the master who figured out that Yingying was hidden in the stove. He squinted his eyes and said, "Don't worry. How could I treat the master unfairly?"

Not only did he not treat Su Chen badly, he also did not forget to burn incense and offer sacrifices to Mazu before boarding the boat.

There is a small shrine of Mazu on the pier at the end of the river, with incense sticks stuck in the front.

Every fisherman who goes out to sea will worship here, praying for calm seas, a good catch of fish, and a safe return.

In Wu Hongliang's words, going out to sea depends on the weather. If God is in a good mood today and lets you encounter a school of fish, you can make money. If God is in a bad mood and misses the fish, you can only pay for the gas. If you are unlucky and the fishing net is broken, that's still okay, as it's better than capsizing.

"A while ago, I heard someone's boat capsized in Lianhai. They called for help, and when I rushed over, I saw a floating lifebuoy and foam ball, but no one. It must be their son's fishing boat."

Lianhai is right next to Cuicheng, about a hundred kilometers away.

"Master, let's get on board and set off!"

Wu Hongliang was the last one to go up, and he set off a string of firecrackers before going up.

He brought six people on the boat, three young and three middle-aged, all of whom looked like veterans. After the boat started, Wu Hongliang did not give many instructions and everyone did their job.

Wu Hongliang chatted with the mother and daughter and learned that the woman's name was Liu Ying, and her hometown was Ning Province in the middle of the country. Not long after she married here, her husband died at sea, leaving behind a pair of children, a son named Liu Aiguo and a daughter named Liu Yucui.

Talking about her son, Liu Ying couldn't help wiping away tears. "My son is so filial. Seeing how hard it was for me to support my family, he followed me out to sea at the age of 16. He didn't get paid at first, but the boss saw that he was serious and down-to-earth, so he rewarded him. After only six months of study, he could bring money home. I saved it all for him and used it as a betrothal gift to buy furniture for him six months ago."

Wu Hongliang asked, "When your son got into trouble, did his wife return the betrothal gifts?"

Liu Yucui pouted when she heard that.

Liu Ying gave a dry laugh and shook her head awkwardly, "We don't have the face to go to them. Aguo got into trouble right after the marriage was set, and it's just a waste of time to label him a jinx."

Wu Hongliang nodded subconsciously.

He is a kind person.

They chatted for a while, and Su Chen called Wu Hongliang over and asked him to change direction.

"Master, didn't you say the person was in that direction? How come…"

Su Chen touched Apeng's head and said, "My son wants to see big fish. It's a rare trip to the sea. Brother Hongliang doesn't mind, right?"

Wu Hongliang waved his hands repeatedly: "I don't mind, I don't mind."

He quickly turned around and told the crew.

Looking at his back, Su Chen shook his head slightly.

He was truly impressed by the dissipation of wealth.

According to the original direction, the fishing boat missed the school of fish just two hundred meters away.

Then this time, I would lose money on gas and labor and return empty-handed.

At the bow, Wu Hongliang told the crew at the helm to change direction. Not long after the bow turned, several people felt the movement and were stunned. Then Wu Hongliang clapped his hands: "What are you standing there for? Pull the net!"

Everyone cooperated well and soon the boat started to get busy.

Someone shouted.

"Brother Hongliang, it's Haruko!"

Wu Hongliang went forward suspiciously, and seeing that it was indeed Chunzi, he scratched his head and said, "That can't be right. Chunzi is usually born in March or April, so why is it before the New Year..."

"Brother Hongliang, why do you care? Look at the heads, they're all huge, so the price must be good!"

"Hahaha, we're going to get rich this time!"

Wu Hongliang grinned and turned to Liu Ying and her daughter, saying, "What did I say? I didn't help you for nothing. Doing good deeds can change your fortunes, and now bad luck has come?"

"Before this, we never encountered any big cargo every time we went out to sea. You two are my lucky stars."

This made Liu Ying and her daughter wave their hands repeatedly. They denied it with their mouths, but their hands were not idle either. They went straight forward to help.

Su Chen didn't move, but Apeng ran over happily. Seeing Chunzi, who was as long as his arm, he happily picked her up and ran over.

"Dad, Dad, big fish!"

The fish in his arms was upside down with its tail flapping constantly. The little guy was afraid that the fish would slip away, so he bent down and held it tightly. In a moment of carelessness, the fish's tail hit the corner of his mouth, and it turned red instantly.

Apeng was stunned for a moment, but didn't cry. He continued to show off to Su Chen.

Su Chen didn't know whether to laugh or cry.

"Is this a big fish? Really big fish are this long!"

Su Chen opened his arms and gestured.

Apeng paused, looked down at Chunzi who was hugged by him, and suddenly felt that it was not fragrant anymore. He ran over and put her down, then came back: "Dad, I want to see such a big fish!"

"Okay, you'll see it soon."

"Hmm."

Wu Hongliang was originally helping to clean the fish, but when he heard this, he stopped.

wrong.

What the master meant just now was that his son changed direction because he wanted to see the big fish, but Chunzi is not a big fish.

Now he says that we will be able to see it soon, but I have pulled up the internet and there is nothing there.

and so……

The real situation is... the master calculated that there was a school of spring fish here, so he asked him to change direction so that he could catch fish?

Wu Hongliang's eyes lit up.

Yeah.

That's definitely the case.

Isn’t the master too nice?

Wu Hongliang was really moved and thought to himself that he would give the master a share of the money after selling the fish. Only then did he feel at ease.

The fish in this net weighed about a thousand kilograms. It took two hours to pack them according to their size.

During this period, the fishing boat readjusted its direction and moved at a speed of 10 knots.

Su Chen didn't say anything on the way, but the sky gradually darkened.

Wu Hongliang cooked a pot of seafood porridge and served it to Liu Ying and her daughter. They both said they had no appetite and kept looking outside. After much persuasion, they finally ate a small bowl.

In contrast, Apeng's appetite was greatly aroused. He drank two small bowls, and his belly was bulging. At the end, he even held the big crab claw to chew on. Su Chen had no choice but to take it, crush it, and then handed it to him, and knocked on his forehead: "You have strong teeth, right? Can you bite open such a big crab claw? Just bite it?"

The little guy was still not convinced and didn't want the one he had pinched open. He asked Wu Hongliang for another big crab claw and held it in his arms to chew on it.

Then, she nibbled on it for more than an hour until she fell asleep in Su Chen's arms.

Su Chen was at a loss whether to laugh or cry.

Seeing this, Wu Hongliang suggested putting the child in the cabin, but Su Chen waved his hand and said, "No, we're almost there, and Apeng still wants to see the big fish."

"……what?"

Isn’t what the master said about looking for big fish just a perfunctory remark?

Liu Ying became excited.

"Master, are we almost there?"

"Aguo, my Aguo!"

She excitedly went out to check.

But it's dark now, how can we see anything?

Instead, Su Chen reminded: "Brother Hongliang, stop the boat."

"Oh oh oh, good."

The night was dark.

Fortunately, there were lights on the boat.

When he fired in the direction Su Chen had agreed on, he saw a small reef emerging on the sea.

Wu Hongliang was stunned: "Master, people, people are up here? But, there is no one here!"
