111: The Qihang sets out again

Yang Qi received a transfer of 855,100 yuan for goods from Chen Tianming, and then immediately transferred 80,000 yuan to Bai Xue.

Then, he took Zhang Jun and Zhang Fei home first. Chen Tianming had to be busy for a while and would come over when dinner was ready.

His mother and the others were gutting Sardines. After greeting them, he led the two to the living room for tea.

"Brother Jun, are you busy tomorrow? Do you want to go fishing with me?"

Yang Qi poured tea for the two and asked. Because when he returned today, Bai Xue told him that she couldn't go fishing tomorrow because of her period.

"Oh! Sure! I have nothing to do tomorrow. I've been getting antsy these past two days."

Zhang Jun immediately became excited. He knew Yang Qi's ability to find fish. Only by going with him could he have a good time fishing.

"Ahem, that... that Yang Qi! Since my brother is going, why don't I go too?"

Zhang Fei immediately interjected. These past few times Yang Qi returned, he had unloaded at his dock. He clearly understood the whole process; it could be said that Yang Qi was always fully loaded.

Zhang Fei's fishing addiction, which had been dormant for several years, was stirring. Back then, he had put his fishing gear aside because he often couldn't catch fish.

Now that he saw an opportunity, he immediately wanted to seize it. For nothing else, just to satisfy his fishing addiction.

"Of course you can! As long as you don't mind the simple fishing boat."

Yang Qi, of course, had no objections.

Zhang Fei heard this and quickly waved his hands: "No complaints, no complaints, as long as I can go fishing and catch something. I haven't caught a fish in a long time."

Well, another 'empty-handed' angler!

Zhang Jun also chimed in: "Exactly, exactly, as long as there are fish to catch, why be so particular?"

At this moment, his mother called from the kitchen: "Son, come help me."

Yang Qi responded and got up to walk to the kitchen. His mother, while gutting Sardines, said:

"You must be careful when you go fishing, don't just focus on fishing and get yourself hurt."

It seemed his mother had heard about the big shark and was worried.

Yang Qi smiled and nodded, "Mom, don't worry, I know what I'm doing."

When he returned to the living room, Zhang Fei asked him for the setting sail key.

Yang Qi was a bit confused. While giving him the key, he asked in puzzlement: "No, what do you need the key for?"

Zhang Fei smiled and didn't say anything. He took the key and went out.

Zhang Jun explained: "Here's the thing, Yang Qi, for tomorrow's fishing trip, my brother and I will pay for the fuel. We won't pay you for the boat."

"Brother Jun, that's too much! How can I charge you for the boat?"

Yang Qi immediately said.

"Don't say anything more, let's just leave it at that!" Zhang Jun waved his hand.

Dinner was lavish: a large portion of Tuna sashimi, several large crabs, large lobsters, pan-fried Spanish Mackerel chunks, steamed White Pomfret, Swallowtail Seaperch, braised half a large Tuna head, and fried Sardines.

Everyone ate with great enthusiasm, especially Bai Lang, who was eating with oil dripping from his mouth. When he heard that Zhang Jun and Zhang Fei would also go fishing on the setting sail tomorrow.

He kept pestering Yang Qi and Zhang Jun, wanting them to put in a good word for him with his mother, so he could also go out to sea.

The others felt very awkward. 'You're giving me such a difficult problem, how am I supposed to respond?'

In the end, Chen Lanying and Bai Xue couldn't stand it anymore and stopped him. 'We wanted to save you some face, but since you don't need it, don't blame us!'

Who knew that tonight, whether it was because Bai Dahai wasn't home, or because Yang Qi's friends were present and his mother and sister wouldn't beat him.

He completely ignored his mother and sister's scolding, stubbornly pestering them with coquetry and cuteness, looking like he wouldn't give up until he achieved his goal, finally making his mother and sister relent.

"Shameless."

This audacious move earned a round of contempt from Yang Qi and the others, but inwardly, they still admired the boy's thick skin.

Bai Lang ignored everyone's disdain, his grin stretching to his ears.

Early the next morning, everyone arrived at the dock to prepare for going out to sea. The ice and bait Yang Qi had contacted in advance had also been delivered. Several people helped bring them onto the setting sail.

Yang Qi routinely checked all the equipment on the fishing boat to ensure everything was foolproof.

Zhang Jun and Zhang Fei excitedly moved their fishing gear onto the boat, while Bai Lang, like a little shadow, helped nearby, his face full of smiles, shouting to everyone he saw: "Brother, I'm here to help you!"

The setting sail whistled once, slowly leaving the dock and heading into the deep sea.

The morning sun shone on the sea, the shimmering surface like countless golden, sparkling fish scales, truly beautiful.

Bai Lang stood at the bow, shouting into the sea breeze: "Ocean, you're all water, I'm coming!" which drew a burst of laughter from everyone.

After sailing for two or three hours, the setting sail had not stopped. It wasn't that Yang Qi hadn't encountered fish, but these schools of fish no longer caught Yang Qi's eye.

These schools of fish didn't know that one day, because of their 'poverty,' they would escape a disaster.

With his golden finger, Yang Qi finally found a sea area with dense schools of fish. There were many valuable 'big catches' below.

The setting sail stopped, and everyone took out their fishing gear and started fishing. Bai Lang was so excited his hands were trembling a bit. This was his first time going fishing so far out to sea.

The last time was with his father and the others, but they only fished in the inshore waters for half a day. It was nowhere near satisfying.

After a while, Zhang Jun caught a fish and shouted excitedly: "I got a bite! Hahaha!"

Zhang Jun himself didn't know why, but whenever he was with Yang Qi, he always caught fish early.

"I got one too! Hehehe!"

Zhang Fei was not to be outdone and immediately got a bite as well. The 'whoosh, whoosh, whoosh' sound of the fishing line cutting through the water was exciting to hear.

Zhang Jun's technique was still very much on point. An eight or nine-pound Sea Bass didn't last more than 6 minutes in his hands before he tired it out. He easily scooped up the Sea Bass with a net, laughing triumphantly.

"Hahaha! It's not that big, only about nine pounds. Hahaha!"

Yang Qi rolled his eyes.

Soon, the fish in Zhang Fei's hand was also pulled out of the water, a 5-pound Tiger Grouper. As expected, years of being an 'empty-handed' angler still meant good technique.

"Hehehe!" Zhang Fei didn't say anything, just chuckled foolishly.

Bai Lang stomped his feet in frustration, his eyes fixed on the fishing line. His body was completely still.

"Indeed, young people all have an unyielding heart!" Yang Qi sighed with emotion.

Actually, the most depressed one was Yang Qi himself.

"Damn it, how embarrassing, my golden finger is useless! I can't even out-fish these two 'empty-handed' novices!"

"Fortunately, I still have a little brother to eat duck eggs with!" Yang Qi felt a slight relief.

Suddenly, Bai Lang's fishing rod dipped sharply, and he excitedly shouted: "I got one, I got a fish too."

Bai Lang gripped the fishing rod tightly, pulling it up forcefully to set the hook.

Yang Qi's face darkened: "Holy cow, I'm the last one to get a bite. What happened to eating duck eggs together?"
