A Day In a Japanese Fishing Village

   Although Minamino Shuichi has had a fulfilling few months, he has not had a good time here. There are also some traditional festivals that he has not experienced. The days of the main fishermen are too busy. They are either going out to sea to fish or on the way to go out to sea. How can they have that free time?

   But when it snows in November in Hokkaido, he can take a few girls to enjoy the snow and ski. There is still more than a month until November, and it is not far away. Snow in Hokkaido these days basically starts in November. Unlike later generations, the snow may be delayed a bit due to global warming.

   Actually, what Minano Shuichi is most looking forward to is the coming-of-age day in January, when the girls are adults, they can go drinking and go crazy. At that time, the bar will be full, and he must experience this custom. Maybe you can also hook up with a few girls, hehe.

   In addition to the coming-of-age festival, he is also looking forward to another festival, the Cherry Blossom Festival at the end of March and the beginning of April. They all say that the cherry blossoms are very beautiful.

   In the next few days, Shuichi Minano will be running on both sides of Nemuro Fishing Port and his home. He went to Nemuro Fishing Port to buy supplies for fishing and refuel the four fishing boats. Nothing to inquire about the news about the fishing circle.

   I went to Nemuro Fishing Port again at noon this day, because I will go out to sea for fishing tomorrow. So he has to look at the flaws.

   When the motorcycle appeared at the Nemuro fishing port pier, he found a strange thing, that is, there were many people around the pier, probably hundreds of people.

   "There were so many people watching, what happened? Could it be that some rare seafood was caught by a fishing boat?" Minano Hideo walked over curiously as soon as he parked his motorcycle.

   The crowd was very noisy after approaching.

   "Hey, what are so many people doing here?" Nanye Xiu always asked a passerby.

   "It is the US Emperor Ocean Fishing Company that recruits a large number of sailors, I heard that there are more than 200 sailors!"

   "Recruiting sailors?" Minami Xiuyi frowned slightly. He knew that the US Imperial Ocean Fishing Company only purchased seafood and set up a seafood canning factory here. What do they recruit sailors for? Is it to form a fishing team?

   With doubts, Hideyoshi Minano squeezed into the crowd and saw that it was the US Imperial Ocean Fishing Company recruiting sailors here!

I saw a recruiter of the American Imperial Ocean Fishing Company shouting: "Everyone is optimistic, our company is setting up a large ocean fishing team, a total of 20 fishing boats of various types. We need more than 200 sailors in total. Salary and benefits are all on this whiteboard, you are optimistic. If you are interested in signing up, please do so as soon as possible. If you have 3 years of fishing experience in the sea, priority will be given to admission!"

   "Everyone line up!"

"Do not worry!"

   Nanye Xiu took a look and saw that the salary offered by the other party was average, neither high nor low. However, there are still a lot of people signing up. It is not easy to find a job these days.

   "I didn't expect the US Emperor Ocean Fishing Company to start so quickly. It has only been here for less than a year to set up a fishing team." Nanye Xiuyi thought to himself. In the future, it is estimated that many multinational fishing companies will set up fishing teams in Hokkaido. After all, the Hokkaido fishery is too big of a cake.

   Now that the US imperialists are powerful, these US imperial fishing companies are really confident!

   "When a fishing company sets up a large-scale fishing team, it is to compete with the local fishing team for food. It is estimated that there will be a good show at that time."

   Sure enough, Minano Shuichi soon saw that many local fishing teams were here standing on the sidelines, believing that they were hostile to the US Imperial Ocean Fishing Company at this time.

   After all, this huge fishing team completely crushed their local fishing teams.

   After watching Minano Shuichi, he returned to his fishing boat.

   "Kimura, how's the preparation going? Are there any mistakes?" When I got on the King's Attack, I saw Kimura and other backbones busy.

   "Boss, you're here."

   "Everything is ready, the fuel is filled up, and the fishing boat has been overhauled several times without any problem." The old man Kimura reported to Minami Hideyoshi.

   "Very good, then we will set off according to the plan tomorrow." Nanye Xiu nodded.

   "Boss, have you seen the recruitment of the US Imperial Ocean Fishing Company over there?" Ishida asked.

   "See, their fishing boats are ready now?"

   "The fishing boats have all entered the fishing port. It was this morning. There are 20 of them, all of which are the most advanced fishing boats at present! I heard that they were all made by the shipyard on the American Empire's side." Ueno Tanimura pointed his finger to the right.

   Minano Shuichi looked along and saw that there were brand-new fishing boats docked at the far right of the fishing port. There were 20 of them. He looked around and estimated that the smallest tonnage was 200 tons.

   "Hey... The US Imperial Ocean Fishing Company is really a big hand, all of them!" Minami Shuichi was surprised.

   "The first foreign fishing team in Nemuro Fishing Port!" Although the sailors and captains of this fishing team are hired by locals, the fishing team belongs to the American Imperial Ocean Fishing Company.

   "There will be more in the future~" Noguchi Minami said softly.

   "Who said we are their little brother now?"

   "Anyway, our fish won't be sold to them anymore, so who cares about them." The old man Kimura said buzzingly. Anyway, now Minano Shuichi has broken with Albert and the others.

  …

"Dad, have you seen it. The US Imperial Ocean Fishing Company has set up its own fishing team, which is still super large, with a total of 20 fishing boats! And all of them are large fishing boats! They only need a seafood processing factory in Nemuro. They will later Will you still buy our fish?" Ryo Matsumoto hurried home and told Kintaro Matsumoto the news.

   "Nani, they have formed their own fishing team and also have 20 fishing boats!" Matsumoto Kintaro's eyes bulged, obviously shocked by the news.

"Yes."

   "Hmph, these U.S. imperial people are really uneasy and kind, they are going to rob us of fishery resources! Don't those guys above care about it?"

   Not only that, but soon the fishermen in the entire Nemuro fishing port knew about it. They are all resentful of the establishment of a super-large fishing team by the US Imperial Ocean Fishing Company and their catching of fish. But there is no way.

  After getting this done, Shuichi Minano went to Nemuro City to pick up Tamago Miyamoto from school in the evening.

   "Nano-kun, are you going to sea again tomorrow?" Miyamoto Yuko sat behind Nanye Shuichi, wrapping his arms around his waist.

   "Yes, I'm going to go out for half a month this time, maybe a little longer. Remember to take good care of yourself, you know. It's cold now, so don't catch a cold." Nanye Xiu said.

   "Well, I see. I really want to grow up quickly." Miyamoto Yuko said tenderly.

   "Why, when you grow up, you're more troubled." Minami Xiuyi smiled.

   "When I grow up, I can take better care of Nanye-kun, and I can always follow you to go fishing."

   "Why do you keep thinking about going out fishing with me, don't you feel bitter in such a day?" Nanye Xiuyi was speechless.

   "I don't think so, I think it's fine to be with Nanye-kun, nothing else." Miyamoto Yuko pressed her pretty face closer to his back.

   "Rest assured, you will have a chance."

   When I got home, Miyamoto Yuko went to cook. When I came back, I bought a lot of ingredients. Since Nanye Xiuyi is going to go fishing tomorrow, she must prepare a big meal for Nanye Xiuyi.

  The idle and bored Shuichi Minano is too lazy to watch TV or go to the fishery to check it out. The fishing ground is still the same, but it attracts many small fish, shrimp and even small groups of fish every day.

   "By the way, let Ami Ue Inoue come over for dinner tonight."

   Smoking a cigarette, Shuichi Minano came to Ami Inoue's house.

   "Ami Inoue, are you at home?"

   called out, but there was no answer.

   "Did she go out to play?" Minami Shuichi secretly said, but Ami Inoue usually doesn't go out of the village, and only goes to Nemuro City to play unless she wants to buy daily necessities.

   "Ami Inoue, are you at home, I'm Shuichi Minano!" Shuichi Minano called again.

   "Ah~ Minano-kun, here, I'm here, wait a minute." Ami Inoue's delicate voice came from inside the house.

  Ami Inoue came out and opened the door two minutes later.

   As soon as she opened the door, Minami Shuichi saw Ami Inoue's pretty face was blushing, her eyes were like peach blossoms, and her kimono was a little messy.

   "Are you feeling unwell?" Seeing her pretty face blushing, Minano Shuichi thought she had a fever.

   "No, no, I just woke up, maybe I covered too much with the quilt just now, yes, it's a little hot..." A bit of shyness appeared on Inoue Ami's face.

   "Please come in." Ami Inoue then invited Shuichi Minano to enter.

   After entering, Ami Inoue poured tea for Shuichi Minano and sat opposite him.

   "Minano-kun, what's your business with me?" Inoue Ami straightened her hair and asked.

   "Nothing, just let you know that we are going to go fishing tomorrow, and we will gather at the fishing port at 6 o'clock tomorrow. When you come to my house, I will take you there with you." Nanye Xiu said.

"OK."

   "By the way, come to my house for dinner tonight. I bought a lot of vegetables today." Minami Shuichi did not forget to inform this.

   "Okay, thank you so much Minano-kun, I often go to your house to eat, I'm a little embarrassed, others will think I'm too rude when they see it." Inoue Ami smiled awkwardly. Generally, when you go to other people's houses, you have to give gifts, and you can't just go to eat or anything.

   "Oh, don't pay too much attention to those, I don't pay attention to this." Minano Xiuyi smiled and waved his hand.

   After chatting and chatting, Minano Shuichi suddenly found a small wooden stick on the coffee table.

   "Huh, what does this thing do?" Minami Shuuichi pointed at the small wooden stick and asked.

   "Ah~ uh~ it's useless, it's just a small stick." After hearing this, Ami Inoue grabbed the stick and put it away, her tone a little flustered.

   "Oh~" Minami nodded slightly.

   "Then let's go, go to my house, it won't take long for dinner to start. You can also go to the kitchen to help Miyamoto Yuko." Minami Hideyoshi stood up.

   "Uh, good." Ami Inoue was relieved to see that Shuichi Minano didn't have any doubts and stood up and followed him to his house.
