Chapter 168: Strange-looking Fish
This was the trial voyage of the pilot ship, it was ancient custom to do some token fishing.
Sailing on the sea was a whole new experience for Chen Xiao Cai. Roaring waves with great momentum made Chen Xiao Cai's blood biol, it was so stirring.
Chen Xiao Cai had so much fun watching the fishermen casting nets and studying the waves.
Although the fishermen team had been fishing for many years, they had never done it on such a big ship, they worked with untiring energy.
"Second Master Chen, we've got a strange-looking fish," Qin Ming said to Chen Xiao Cai.
Qin Ming was a little embarrassed. On the first day of fishing with the brand new pilot ship, they got a strange-looking fish, Qin Ming wasn't sure whether it boded well.
"Let's have a look."
Chen Xiao Cai showed a smile on seeing the strange-looking fish, "It's all right, put it in a bucket, I plan to open an aquarium where you can watch all the strange-looking fish. Guys, if you find any strange-looking fish, please send it to me, I would love to expand the display. And there will be reward." Chen Xiao Cai comforted the crowd.
And it worked, the fishermen team looked relieved on hearing that, they were glad that Chen Xiao Cai didn't see this as an ill omen.
A fisherman on the side chimed in, "Second Master Chen, many of these strange-looking fish are poisonous. You can't eat these strange fish!"
Chen Xiao Cai nodded and said, "Thank you for the reminder, I'm not going to eat the fish."
Qin Ming glanced at Chen Xiao Cai and asked, "Second Master, you want to?"
"To display them, let more people see these creatures," Chen Xiao Cai said.
A fisherman on the boat couldn't help asking, "What kind of requirements are there?"
"The minimum requirement is that it has to be strange-looking. If it is strange-looking, rare to see and beautiful, then you can get more reward money," Chen Xiao Cai said.
The fishermen looked at each other in utter amazement, they were so excited to hear that.
Many fishermen in the team were very experienced, they had met their fair share of strange-looking fish, they usually freed the fish because they were not edible. And now Chen Xiao Cai offered to purchase strange-looking fish, they were excited that they could have more income.
Chen Xiao Cai had such a great time on the pilot ship, he enjoyed talking to the fishermen tea and learning basic navigation knowledge. He went back to the county yamen after the trial voyage.
As soon as Chen Xiao Cai left, several fishermen circled around the big boat.
"Captain Qin, is it true that we can also drive this ship for fishing?" Jiang Xian asked.
Qin Ming nodded and said, "Yes, those who intend to use the big ship need to come to me to register first. And I will make a timetable for people who want to use the ship."
Jiang Xian nodded, "How great!"
Han Xiao Zhou, Jiang Chuan'er, and a few other fishermen kids couldn't help but climb onto the boat and explored it inside and outside.
Jiang Chuan'er sat on the ship and said excitedly, "This ship is really big. If I can have such a ship in the future, it will be so great."
Han Xiao Zhou cast a glance at Jiang Chuan'er and said, "This ship is worth dozens of taels, my friend. It is not easy to save dozens of taels of silver! Hmm, good luck, I think this dream is probably somewhat unrealistic."
