803: The fish jumped upwards with all its might.

Xiao Niannian looked at them and walked to the side.

There weren't many fish here, so she decided to find a spot with more fish. After walking a few meters, she noticed some movement underwater.

She took out a shovel and started digging holes.

At this time, there were no professional tools for digging holes, otherwise, she could have dug faster.

Xiao Niannian dug for a while, and after carving out two holes the size of washbasins, she was about to put down the fishing line tied with a hook and bait when she saw many fish floating up.

Xiao Niannian picked up a nearby branch and used it to clamp the fish out one by one.

Once the fish reached the surface of the river, they thrashed a few times and then stopped moving.

Xiao Niannian was about to continue clamping with the branch when she saw many fish jumping up from below.

Seeing this scene, Xiao Niannian knew she was lucky.

She put all these fish into a sack.

Soon, the sack was filled with more than ten fish, and the fish below were still vigorously leaping out; the fish were jumping up desperately.

Not far away, Shen Yan's voice was loud.

"Got another one."

"That's great!"

"This one is big, at least two or three catties."

"This one is a Silver Carp."

Xiao Niannian saw a fish weighing five or six catties jump out. She looked at the sack in her hand and put that fish inside too.

Before long, the sack in her hand was full.

"Shen Yan."

Hearing Captain Xiao's voice, Shen Yan immediately answered.

"Present."

"Come over and catch fish."

What?

Sister Xiao is asking him to come over and catch fish? Did she catch a lot of fish?

"Bring a few bigger sacks."

She needs a few more bigger sacks?

Shen Yan ran over, carrying two sacks.

"So many?"

When Shen Yan saw the fish on the ground, he was stunned.

How could there be so many fish?

What did Sister Xiao use to catch the fish? He didn't see any fishing line!

"The terrain here is good. The fish needed to surface for air, so they jumped out."

Hearing Captain Xiao's explanation, Shen Yan still couldn't quite believe what he was seeing. He blinked and looked closely.

"What are you standing around for? Catch the fish."

Xiao Niannian urged him.

"Okay."

Shen Yan quickly started catching the fish.

Meng Ning, Gao Yao, and Lin Shi were originally fishing, each guarding a hole. Hearing Captain Xiao's voice from afar and seeing Shen Yan continuously picking up fish, they were surprised and ran over.

"Oh my god, so many fish."

"Captain Xiao, did you just poke a fish nest?"

"There are way too many fish."

"Now there's enough for everyone in both Production Brigades to eat."

Fish, one after another, kept jumping upwards.

Meng Ning and Gao Yao couldn't stop smiling.

"Captain Xiao, I haven't seen a scene like this since I was a child! But even then, there weren't this many fish!"

Gao Yao said with a laugh.

"Just good luck."

Xiao Niannian said modestly.

"This isn't just good luck, this is amazing luck!"

Gao Yao was filled with admiration. She remembered what her grandfather and other elders had said. People with such good fortune must be blessed by heaven!

Captain Xiao is indeed Captain Xiao—she's truly outstanding!

The other Team Members also noticed the commotion here.

"Captain Xiao, how do you have so many fish?"

"Come and help pick them up."

Xiao Niannian invited them.

"That's great."

"We'll be right there."

More than ten people quickly started picking up the fish.

But the speed at which they picked them up was slower than the speed at which the fish were jumping out.

Fish also started jumping out of the nearby holes!

"So many fish!"

Shen Yan saw a fish weighing at least six or seven catties leap out of the water and flop toward him, causing him to immediately step back a few paces.

"What a huge fish."

"This one must be more than six or seven catties."

"Oh my god, there are too many fish."

"Captain Xiao, the two holes you dug were perfectly chosen."

The Team Members picked up several sacks full.

"Take a few sacks of fish back first, and then send some more people over to pick up fish."

Xiao Niannian instructed.

"Yes."

A few Team Members carried these sacks of fish toward the camp.

Not far away, some other Team Members were looking for wild vegetables and the like.

Seeing the sacks they were carrying, as well as the fish in the net bags, everyone was shocked.

"Where did you get so many fish?"

"Captain Xiao led the Womens Team Members in catching fish, and they caught a lot."

"I know how to clean fish. If we process the fish now, it will be easier to eat tonight."

"I also know how to clean fish."

The Team Members who knew how to clean fish all rushed over.

Qiao Yan heard the commotion and walked over too.

Seeing these fish, he was also shocked. He had originally planned to have his subordinates catch some fish, but since Lu Jing had already sent people, he didn't say anything.

"Did you catch these fish?"

He held a sharpened branch in his hand, intending to use it later for spearfishing.

"Captain Xiao and the Womens Team Members caught them. There are several large sacks, hundreds of fish."

What?

How did Xiao Niannian and the others catch them? Hundreds of fish?

How is that possible?

Are these fish crazy?

He had been to many rivers before to catch fish; he could catch them by fishing or netting.

But never once had he been able to catch this many fish.

"There are more than ten varieties of fish here."

"They look delicious."

When Lu Jing saw the Team Members carrying the fish over, he knew his wife and the Team Members had caught them, and he wasn't surprised. He had long known that his wife had very good luck. He had encountered such incidents many times before.

"Those of you who know how to clean fish, process these fish."

"Yes."

Hearing Captain Lu's words, the Team Members immediately agreed and started cleaning the fish.

Qiao Yan looked at the fish and decided to go to the riverbank to see how Xiao Niannian and the others caught them, so his own men could catch fish this way next time.

When Qiao Yan arrived at the riverbank, there were still dozens of fish on the surface of the river.

So many fish?

This is too much!

There must be over a hundred now?

He didn't see them fishing, so how did they get the fish out?

Xiao Niannian looked at the fish on the river surface and said.

"That's about enough. These are enough for us to eat for several meals."

As soon as she finished speaking, fewer fish jumped out of the river.

After a little while longer, no more fish jumped out of the hole.

Qiao Yan walked over and looked at Xiao Niannian.

"What tool did you use to catch the fish?"

"The fish jumped out themselves."

Qiao Yan looked at Xiao Niannian with a suspicious expression; he didn't believe her words at all.

"Such a good thing exists?"

"Just because you don't encounter it doesn't mean we won't!"

Xiao Niannian said mockingly.

Qiao Yan listened, then looked around. He saw a few sticks and some fishing lines and hooks not far away.

Even if they were fishing, it would be impossible to catch this many. Did the fish really jump out themselves?

Wait, it must be a lack of oxygen—he knew about that!

So, Xiao Niannian and the others dug a few holes, and the fish, wanting to breathe, jumped out.

He had to admit, Xiao Niannian and the others were truly lucky.

Qiao Yan looked elsewhere; there were also more than ten holes not far away.

It must be this way!

"Captain Qiao."

Hearing the Team Member's voice, Qiao Yan said.

"You all go and catch some fish too."

"Yes."
