As dawn broke, anglers had already arrived in their boats to go rock fishing.
The anglers on the fishing boat were quite surprised to find a fishing boat moored there.
There are anglers at Sanshijiao every day, but you really don't see fishermen coming here to cast their nets more than a few times a year.
As Zhou Miao and his companions chatted, the fishing boat slowly approached them.
A fisherman leaned against the gunwale, craning his neck to look at the fishing boat.
"Bro, you guys... Holy crap?"
"Damn it, who are you calling a 'slut'?"
Zhou Miao frowned, about to retort, but Luo Hao swore first.
"Misunderstanding, bro, I wasn't swearing. I just couldn't help myself seeing so many horse racing enthusiasts on your boat," the young fisherman who had just exclaimed "Holy crap!" quickly replied.
The fishing boat had already stopped next to them, so the other anglers heard the commotion and came over. When they saw the boat full of fish, they were all incredulous.
"Damn, I've been fishing here for over a year and I've never caught a grouper. Did you guys really catch it here?"
"This is way bigger! It feels like a huge school of fish!"
"I didn't expect to see horse racing enthusiasts here, what a surprise!"
"We caught it in this net over here. There are still three nets over there that haven't been pulled up yet. You can try fishing in the southeast; you might catch something there." Seeing that they really meant no harm, Luo Hao's expression softened considerably.
Zhou Miao didn't react much upon hearing this, but just looked at the group of fishermen with a bit of pity.
If the threadfin bream don't come out in the early morning, these anglers won't catch anything even if they fish for a whole day and night.
The group of fishermen all agreed with what Luo Hao said!
So they quickly asked the boat owner to find a spot for them to fish.
Watching them leave, Luo Hao sighed, "More and more people are definitely coming next; it's going to be lively!"
"Won't the boats be packed tonight?" Zhou Miao had a bad feeling when she heard him say that.
He had originally planned to come fishing to see if the fish would appear a fourth time.
Judging from the situation, unless they stay here, there's absolutely no chance of finding a spot if they come back at night.
"Anyway, I'm not coming." Luo Hao shook his head.
As if his words had come true, when Lu Xingyu returned, he was followed by a full twenty or thirty ships.
One-third of them are fishing boats, and the rest are all fishing dinghies.
Zhou Miao:
'
""
The Chinese are really something else. Not only are they involved in every industry, but now they're even involved in fishing. Are they trying to make life impossible for people?
Lu Xingyu continued delivering goods, while Zhou Miao and his group then closed in.
As the fishing net was pulled up, Luo Hao gradually revealed a look of surprise.
The harvest was indeed not comparable to Zhou Miao's nets, but the first net still yielded about two hundred threadfin bream, which amounted to about a thousand catties, completely exceeding his expectations.
With just this one haul, they've already broken even.
The rest is all profit. Even if he offered to give Zhou Miao 50%, the three networks should still make a profit.
Seeing that there was still some space on the fishing boat, Luo Hao pulled in the net that was inside.
The fish catch was indeed reduced by about half, but the two meter-long bream and three fish weighing over fifteen pounds still made Luo Hao very happy.
"Haha, I didn't expect the harvest to be this good. I thought the internet was going to be empty."
"Now you can rest assured! The cost of the remaining net, no matter how much fish you catch, will be covered by your share. We'll split the two nets on this boat 50/50."
Zhou Miao had been considering the profit distribution plan all morning and had finally made a decision.
If it weren't for Luo Hao, he would never have caught so many fish by operating the net alone; instead, he would have been overwhelmed by the net itself.
He originally thought that fishing with nets would be easy, but from setting the nets last night to hauling them in this morning, it turned out that someone who had never done it before really couldn't do it.
So when he saw that Luo Hao's earnings from these three networks were about one-third less than his own, he decided to take less.
"That's not appropriate. I already agreed on that beforehand." Luo Hao immediately shook his head.
He didn't expect to earn back the money he spent on the fishing boat on this voyage; he was betting on the future.
Not to mention that even if he only takes 50% of the profits from selling these three nets of fish, he can still break even and even make a small profit.
"You're stupid to refuse money offered to you?"
"Have you ever heard of the saying 'great wisdom appears as foolishness'? As a brother, I'm a man of my word! We agreed on a 50/50 split, and that's non-negotiable. There's no room for negotiation on this."
"I've never seen anyone refuse money offered for free."
"There are plenty of things you haven't seen!"
"Fine, fine, whatever you say."
Seeing his insistence, Zhou Miao was both amused and exasperated.
However, if good things happen in the future, I certainly won't abandon him again.
When Lu Xingyu came again, they pulled in the last of their nets.
Seeing that the harvest was about eight or nine hundred catties, Luo Hao secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
He couldn't possibly resist Zhou Miao's suggestion, after all, it wasn't just a few thousand yuan, but tens of thousands.
Luo Qianqian loves money, so how could her brother not? He's often scolded by his sister for being stingy.
Zhou Miao had previously discovered a group of crabs, and this time he discovered a group of threadfin bream. He wondered what kind of group he might discover next.
So no matter how reluctant he was, he would not go back on his word.
He just hopes that the subsequent investment costs won't be too high, so that he can earn more.
Zhou Miao and his group happily returned with their boat full of fish, while the fishermen who had been keeping an eye on the perimeter of Sanshi Reef immediately rushed to fight for territory as soon as they left.
Before long, a heated verbal battle broke out on the sea.
The anglers in the south seemed quite harmonious, generally keeping a proper distance from each other and not disturbing one another.
"Finally finished. Catching so many fish is great, but it's also really tiring! I've been rushing around since early this morning, and I've practically had my fill of the northwest wind."
Lu Xingyu stood next to Zhou Miao and sighed.
At this moment, Luo Hao had already returned to his own ship and was following behind.
He and Lu Xiaoxiao naturally followed Zhou Miao.
"It's a good thing it's early autumn; you'd be even more thrilled if it were winter," Zhou Miao laughed. "But the feeling of my fanny pack suddenly bulging is really nice."
"You two have worked hard this morning. I'll split the money with you when we get back and receive the payment."
"I don't want to!" Lu Xiaoxiao immediately refused.
"Who do you think you are!" Lu Xingyu's smile vanished.
"Wait, why are they all asking for nothing now?" Zhou Miao looked at the brother and sister and sighed helplessly.
Lu Xingyu looked at him and said earnestly, "You helped me take care of Xiaoxiao and even found me when I was stranded on a deserted island. I will remember all these kindnesses."
"We just came to help out a little, it would be really rude of us to take your money."

Lu Xiaoxiao nodded: "Brother A-Miao, we really can't accept this money."
Since they've already said that, insisting on giving them money would be disrespectful.
"Okay! Then I'll treat everyone to a big meal tonight to celebrate today's success. You have to come!"
"I won't come here if a table doesn't cost several thousand yuan!"
"It must be several thousand!"
