Chapter 254 Luo Can’s jaw almost dropped twice
"Go! That's nice of you to say, but give me money to buy a big ship!"
Luo Can was speechless and quickly waved to the three men and three women behind him, "Let's go to the westernmost part of the dock to unload the fish!"
When they reached the westernmost end of the pier, Luo Can, the three men and three women were stunned.
"Cousin, didn't you say you weren't going to fish in the open sea today, but only in the bay?"
"Yes! We are fishing in the bay, otherwise why would we come back so early?"
"Then...how come you caught so many fish in the bay?"
"Don't ask, just weigh the fish!"
Lin A Lian was not polite at all to her cousin.
The three men and three women brought by Luo Can worked together to weigh the fish.
In addition to the more than 100 kilograms of fish left for the Lin family restaurant, a total of 1,090 kilograms of fish were sold to Luo Can.
Fifty cents per pound, the total is five hundred and forty-five yuan.
Lin A Lian gave Liu Junhui three hundred yuan on the spot.
Liu Junhui looked at Lin Alian with a smile, "The total is 545 yuan. 50-50, shouldn't it be 300 yuan?"
Lin A-Lian pointed to the fish hold on the small fishing boat and said, "Didn't I leave over a hundred pounds of fish?"
"Oh."
Liu Junhui was very satisfied. She earned 300 yuan a day by fishing, which was almost equivalent to Yonggang's five-month salary.
If this continues, my family’s funds will soon become abundant.
Moreover, Liu Junhui has a bigger plan...
Lin A Lian stopped her cousin who was about to leave and said, "Cousin, please drive my sister Jun Hui home!"
If Liu Junhui followed Lin A Lian back to the small fishing village, it would be late at night and the rickshaw driver would definitely be gone, and there would be no bus.
Liu Junhui said that if she didn't go home, her family would miss her and worry about her.
When Luo Can heard this, he immediately said, "Okay!"
It looked like he was very willing to send Liu Junhui home.
Liu Junhui was very touched by Lin Alian's arrangement. Sister Alian is really considerate of me.
Lin A Lian jumped onto the small fishing boat, took out a net bag from somewhere, and used it to catch six fish in the fish hold.
There are yellow croaker, hairtail, and swordfish.
He leaped back onto the dock and handed the net bag to Liu Junhui. "Junhui, take it home and share it with your family. Even though we caught it in the bay, these are fish from the open sea."
"Thank you, Sister A-Lian!"
Luo Can looked at Liu Junhui and said, "My car is over there, let's go get in!"
"Okay, Mr. Luo, thank you for your help!"
"Hey, we're already in the same boat, you're welcome!"
Just as Liu Junhui was about to leave, she turned around and looked at Lin Alian, "Sister Alian, do you want to continue fishing tomorrow?"
"Sister Junhui, we are all too tired, and the fishing nets need to be aired. Let's go fishing the day after tomorrow."
"OK!"
Fishing nets need to be aired?
Liu Junhui was reminded of the saying "fish for three days and dry the net for two days".
It turns out that in that era, most fishing nets were woven with hemp or cotton threads. If they were soaked in water for a long time or used too frequently, the net threads would become loose and easily broken.
Therefore, fishermen need to hang their fishing nets out in the sun regularly to dry them and restore their elasticity and strength.
In addition, choosing to fish one day apart can allow the fish to relax their vigilance and increase the success rate of fishing.
Liu Junhui followed Luo Can, walked through the crowd to the outside of the dock, and came to a passenger and cargo truck.
At this time, the three men and three women had already loaded the fish into the car.
Luo Can opened the right door of the cab and said to Liu Junhui, "Please get in!"
Luo Can let Liu Junhui sit in the passenger seat, obviously showing respect for Liu Junhui.
Liu Junhui didn't hesitate and jumped into the car.
The back seat could accommodate three people, so the three women sat there, while the three men got into the back of the car, along with the boxes of fish.
When Liu Junhui saw Luo Can driving himself, she knew that Luo Can’s fishing company would not be large.
After all, A-Lian said that Luo Can had just set up a small fishing company two years ago, and he was just starting out.
After the car drove onto the main road, Luo Can began talking to Liu Junhui.
"Your name is Liu Junhui, right?"
"Yes, Liu Junhui, didn't I just say that?"
"Um yeah, I mean, what should I call you?"
"Call her Liu Junhui, what else can she call her?"
"Oh! Liu Junhui, how do you know my cousin?"
"Not long ago, I went to her restaurant for dinner and she introduced us to the characteristics of deep-sea fish. That's how we got to know each other."
"Oh! Did she ask you to go fishing with her?"
"No, I asked her to teach me how to fish."
"Looking for her to teach me how to fish? Then..."
Luo Can didn't say the rest. Learning to fish is just an apprenticeship, so why should he get half the money?
Liu Junhui knew his doubts, but did not explain them, letting him figure it out on his own.
Luo Can turned his head and glanced at Liu Junhui. "Judging from your accent, you are from the north, right?"
"Well, I'm from the north and grew up on the North Canal."
"North Canal... No wonder you like fishing."
"I don't like fishing. I want to earn money to support my family."
"Yes, yes, to earn money to support the family. Did you come from the north to make money fishing?"
"No, I came here with the army."
"Coming with the army?!"
Luo Can's jaw almost dropped. After a moment of stunned silence, he couldn't help but look at Liu Junhui again, and his eyes were a little different.
"There's only one Marine Division nearby. Is your wife from the Marine Division?"
"Yes, my husband is a captain of the Marine Division."
"ah?!"
Luo Can's jaw almost dropped again.
I couldn't help but look at Liu Junhui again, and my eyes were a little different.
"You look like you're about twenty years old, right?"
"Well, I'm almost nineteen."
"Nineteen years old... then he..."
Luo Can didn't say the rest of the sentence. Captain, that's the rank of a full colonel, at least in his thirties, but she's only nineteen. What's going on? Is she getting married for the second time? Or...?
Liu Junhui knew that there was a fishhook hanging in Luo Can's belly again, and this time she immediately dispelled her doubts.
"Because my husband was a super soldier and served as the captain of the special commando team during that war, he was recognized as a lone hero and awarded first-class merit after the war, so he was promoted to captain."
Liu Junhui said it calmly, but Luo Can was shocked.
"Ah?! Captain of the special commando team?! A lone hero?!" Luo Can didn't drop his jaw this time. Instead, his eyes widened as he turned to stare at Liu Junhui. "Your lover is Li Yonggang?!"
"Yes, you..."
"Haha! Hahahaha! I used to be a soldier under Captain Li Yonggang, but I didn't do a good job. I was sent back after completing my conscription service.
Forget about being promoted, I couldn't even get a volunteer soldier."
The three women in the back seat couldn't help laughing, and their laughter was in three different tones.
