Chapter 15: snicker popping

   (Thanks to the readers of Fanmengxingchenmengyu for their 100 starting point coins! In addition, I wish everyone a happy eleventh in advance!)

   Minamino Shuichi's fishing boat returned to port in the afternoon. At the moment, the fishing port is not very busy, basically no fishing boats are coming back, only some cargo ships are loading and unloading goods.

  The afternoon setting sun shone on the sea, causing a burst of steamy heat. The fishermen on several large fishing boats parked in their nets were lounging under the sun umbrellas on the deck to cool off.

   On the flagship fishing boat of the Matsumoto Fishing Team, a few people are enjoying salmon (salmon) sashimi and fine sake while enjoying the cool air! Yes, this is the salmon they just caught from the sea, and it tastes delicious.

"Hey, Matsumoto-kun, your father is indeed a fish hunter in Hokkaido! We just went out to sea for more than a week and we encountered a large school of salmon. This time we have returned with a full reward!" A big shirtless man smiled hehe the way.

"Uncle Matsumoto's title of fish hunter is not for nothing. Thirty years of experience in finding fish is not for nothing. This time we estimate that we have another large sum of money in the account." Another lean man smiled. road.

   These three people are called Matsumoto Ryo, Eguchi Jingteng, and Aso Kotaro. All three of them are second-generation fishermen. Because their three fathers are the three major shareholders of the Matsumoto fishing team! The Matsumoto fishing team is a well-known fishing team in the entire Nemuro Peninsula. Most of the trips to the sea can be returned with full rewards, from a small fishing team ten years ago to a large fishing team with three fishing boats now!

   "Of course, my dad told me that after this deal is over, he plans to marry me a daughter-in-law. She's a city person, she's pretty, and she's graduated from an island university again!" Ryo Matsumoto said with a proud grin.

   Speaking of which, they were all rural people before, but the fishing team has made a lot of money in recent years. The three of them have moved their homes to Nemuro City and bought a car, so they are considered rich. In this day and age, people who can afford a car are rich people.

"Wow, you are so blessed. You are the only child in your family, like my family has three brothers, and two of them are still in school. I guess I don't have that much spare money to marry such a high-quality city-daughter-in-law." Eguchi Jing Teng said with envy.

   "Hey, don't talk about it, I got married too early. I married a rural man, and I wanted to get a divorce." Aso Kotaro complained.

   At this moment, a whistle sounded, and a fishing boat docked. This fishing boat was none other than the fishing boat of Shuichi Minano who had just returned.

The    fishing boat is docked not far from the Matsumoto fishing boat.

   "Hey, isn't this fishing boat the same fishing boat that went out to sea with us more than a week ago?" Ryo Matsumoto said with a hint of surprise.

"It seems like, we laughed at them back then. By the way, they seem to be from Beiwan Fishing Village! Most of them are women. There has been no one since Beiwan Fishing Boat and Fishing Team collapsed seven or eight years ago. I can rent a big fishing boat and go out to sea to fish. I didn't expect that there is a person now, who seems to be called Minami Shuuichi. An offspring." Aso Kotaro frowned.

   "Haha, there are many people like them who want to get rich overnight. I guess they must have gotten nothing this time!" Eguchi Jingteng laughed. After all, not every fleet has a fishing talent like Matsumoto Ryo's father!

   Every year, I don’t know how many fishermen who go out to the sea to fish can’t keep up.

   "Just ask if you don't know!" Ryoda Matsumoto.

"Hey, friends over there, did you catch any fish this time? We went out to sea together, but we caught salmon here! A full boat." Eguchi Jingteng shouted in a showy tone. .

   "Yes! Most of the ship is there." Ishida Yu smiled when he saw someone asked. Generally, when the fishing boat comes back, the peers have to ask about the results, and if the relationship is good, they can also exchange experiences or something.

   "Hmph, Ishida Yu, are you blind? Those guys were one of the people who mocked us at the beginning. Don't talk to them." The old man Kimura glared at Ishida Yu.

   "Uh, hehe..." Ishida Yu smiled and touched the back of his head, expressing a little embarrassment.

   "Okay, stop talking, we're on the shore, there are more things to do, hurry up and help." Nan Yexiu glanced at the other side and said to everyone.

   "Yes, boss."

   "Yo, it's actually a bit of a surprise, let's go and have a look." There was a hint of surprise on Matsumoto Ryo's face. Obviously did not expect the other party to gain.

   "Go!" So the three of them got off the boat, went ashore, and walked towards Minami Shuuichi's fishing boat.

   At this point, the fishing boat has stopped.

   Seeing the return of fishing boats, several marine fish shops on the shore of Nemuro Fishing Port sent people to check. In this era, transportation is not very developed. Therefore, as soon as the fish is transported to the port, a buyer from the fishing port will come up to buy it.

   At present, Nemuro Fishing Port has a total of three large marine fish purchasers and a dozen small marine fish purchasers. There are also two marine fish processing plants. It must be said that the current Nemuro fishing port is still one of the best fishing ports in the Nemuro Peninsula. Even in Hokkaido, it is a big fishing port.

   These three large-scale marine fish buyers are still very powerful, and the prices they give are fair.

   However, seeing that there was only one fishing boat coming back, it was still 150 tonnage. It was not enough to attract the three buyers to send people to investigate, but four or five small fish buyers sent people.

   "Hey, brother, what did your fishing boats get this time?" A buyer asked first without even getting on the boat. If you don't catch fish, it's all in vain.

   "Of course there are, herring! There are estimated to be 100,000." Minami Shuichi stood on the bow and said.

   "It turned out to be herring? One hundred thousand, which is indeed quite a lot. But the sales of herring are not very good now." After hearing this, the person did not get on board the first time, but thought about whether to buy it or not.

   The other buyers who came here were a little hesitant after hearing this. Herring, in this era, is a fish eaten by the poor. The sales volume is not very good, and the price difference is not high. They don't really want to buy it. Especially 100,000 tails, it will also require a lot of money for refrigeration at that time.

"Haha, I'll just say, they're not very lucky. The fish is encountered, the fish is caught, and there are not many 100,000! It's a pity that it's a herring, let's go, let's go, no interest, let's go back and continue to eat Sashimi and sake bar." The trio who had just walked over also heard it, and Matsumoto Ryo laughed loudly. The voice is very loud, it is estimated that it is deliberately mocking Minano Shuichi and others.

   "It turned out to be a worthless herring, hehe, our fishing team is too lazy to do anything when they encounter this kind of fish!" Aso Kotaro also laughed.

   At this moment, Minamino Shuichi said calmly: "We also caught bluefin tuna!"

   When this sentence came out, everyone was dumbfounded.
