"You canât fish anyway, using bread is a waste, go find some other bait."
Liu Feifei was speechless, but she knew food was precious, so she had no choice but to go outside to find bait.
After searching for a while, she only found some unidentified minced meat on the ground, which smelled a bit.
She felt a bit nauseous, unsure if it was human flesh.
She dared not think further, deciding to avoid eating fish in the future.
Back on the balcony, she started casting her fishing rod.
Just after casting, less than two minutes passed when a joyful cheer came from upstairs again.
Liu Feifei lifted her head in the rain and looked outside.
She saw a large silver-white ribbon fish being pulled up.
Song Wen had another catch upstairs.
She was somewhat surprised, then heard her fatherâs voice from next door.
"Itâs just beginnerâs luck, stay calm, stay calm..."
Liu Feifei burst into laughter, but at that moment, the fishing rod in her hand suddenly sank.
"Oh my, fish! Thereâs a fish!"
"Dad! Dadâ"
She started shouting in panic.
Old Liu immediately showed a look of joy and shouted, "Old Hu, watch my fishing rod!"
He turned and sprinted to Liu Feifei next door.
He saw his daughter holding the fishing rod tightly, sitting on the ground, constantly shouting.
Old Liu didnât care about his daughter at this moment, took a large stride and lunged at the fishing rod.
Using his weight advantage, he grabbed the fishing rod firmly and started pulling the fishing line with all his might.
"Wow, a big catch! Old Hu, itâs a big one!"
He shouted while Old Hu quickly came over with a scoop net.
He leaned on the balcony and looked outside, then shouted joyfully, "Wow, thatâs a huge fish! Old Liu, hold on!"
While talking, he immediately put the scoop net into the water and started retrieving forcefully.
The three of them used all their strength and finally pulled the fish up.
Thump!
The big fish fell on the floor, started jumping fiercely, its tail struck the wooden floor heavily.
The wooden floor was immediately smashed into pieces.
Liu Danian and Hu Weimin quickly retreated, both panting heavily.
Liu Danian said in shock, "My gosh, if this hit a person, wouldnât it swell up instantly?"
Liu Feifei joyfully said, "I caught it, Dad, I caught it."
Liu Danian jealously said, "Yes, yes, and thatâs because you inherited your dadâs fishing talent."
"Old Liu, what kind of fish is this?"
"Let me see, itâs a grouper."
"Uh, can groupers be this big?" Hu Weimin asked suspiciously.
Liu Danian laughed and pointed out, "You donât understand, groupers can grow over 1 meter, even up to 2 meters."
"Hehehe, the one my daughter caught is at least 1.2 meters. Tsk tsk, if this were before, wouldnât it sell for one or two thousand?"
Hu Weimin wasnât familiar with sea fishing, with a hint of regret on his face, he said, "What a pity, Mr. Liang buys fish per piece, not by size."
Hearing this, Liu Danian felt dejected.
He couldnât help but say, "I donât know what heâs thinking, such a big grouper, can it be compared to sardines? Counting by piece, we are too disadvantaged."
Hu Weimin suddenly suggested, "How about we keep this one to eat ourselves?"
"Such a big fish, if we split it between our two families, we can eat to our heartâs content."
"Exchanging it for pieces with Mr. Liang is too unfair, we should just eat it ourselves." Liu Danian nodded in agreement.
Liu Feifei thought for a moment, feeling that her dad and Uncle Hu made sense.
After the three reached an agreement, they put the fish aside and resumed fishing.
After a while, Hu Weiminâs cast net also showed some movement.
When the net was pulled up, it contained only four or five big fish.
Besides these, there were also various miscellaneous plastic bottles and such.
Only then did he understand why Liu Erlong and his group, during their time on the eleventh floor, hadnât seen a surplus of fish.
There was simply too much garbage in the water, the cast net pulled up nothing but trash.
It seemed fishing was more efficient.
During the next period, Song Wen upstairs caught another ten or so fish.
Liu Feifei was not to be outdone, also catching five or six.
Only Liu Danian, the seasoned fisher, ended up empty-handed!
He watched the two novices bringing in catches continually, his eyes turning red.
Almost nightfall, Song Wen suddenly reeled in something else.
This time, it wasnât a fish, but a large shell!
Song Wen was astonished, hurriedly pulling up the shell.
She looked at the dozen fish she had caught, along with the large shell, already totaling almost fifty kilograms.
"Thatâs about it, I canât carry any more."
"Dinner is ready for tonight."
Song Wen touched her hungry stomach, packed all the fish into a large waterproof backpack, and added some seawater inside.
"Oh right, thereâs the rabbit cage too."
She quickly pulled up the rabbit cage.
This time, there was another big haul; the cage contained two large crabs!
Song Wen was all smiles, grabbing the cage, carrying the backpack, and leaving the room.
As she exited, she saw Hu Weimin and Liu Danian downstairs.
Liu Feifei couldnât help but call out, "Sister Song, did you finish fishing?"
Song Wen instinctively hid her backpack behind her, forcing a smile, "Yeah, I need to hurry up, Mr. Liang said he doesnât accept dead fish."
"Oh oh, goodbye then." Liu Feifei waved goodbye.
Song Wen quickly said, "Goodbye, goodbye."
Liu Danian jealously said, "That girl caught quite a lot."
Hu Weimin laughed, "Didnât you say itâs beginnerâs luck?"
Liu Danian sighed after hearing this, looking at the seven or eight fish piled beside his daughter.
"I used to catch over 100 pounds a day, when did I ever end up empty-handed?"
"Alright, letâs go, we better not let these fish die, or we wonât have any food." Hu Weimin called out, and the three of them started packing up and heading upstairs.
At this moment, Liang Yuan still doesnât know that a large amount of points is coming his way!
