Chapter 1 Have you ever had evil thoughts?
The roar of the huge whistle frightened countless seabirds into flight.
The rusty bow of the ship split the waves facing the rising sun, drawing a long milky white mark on the pale golden sea.
The sharp sea breeze ruffled Jiang Xinxin's long hair, and she looked at Zhang Jiaqiang standing aside with great envy.
"Hmph, you big bald man is bullying people!"
Zhang Jiaqiang smiled and said, "You can shave it off if you can!"
This was Jiang Xinxin's first time on a sea ship, and her beautiful eyes were filled with excitement.
At this moment, there is a man I like next to me, and I feel even more happy.
She said arrogantly, "I hate it. I'm not a nun. It's better to have long hair. Hey, brother, please put on your hat quickly to avoid catching a cold!"
Zhang Jiaqiang remained unmoved and spread his arms towards the rising sun in the distance.
It roared loudly in the sea breeze.
"Oh, ah, I want to have it all!"
After a few loud roars, all the negative emotions accumulated in my chest were instantly swept away, and I felt much more relaxed.
Jiang Xinxin chuckled and said, "Including me?"
Zhang Jiaqiang gently pinched her little nose and said, "You are just a sister. Come back to the cabin. You will get a fever if you stay here any longer!"
"Huh, if you have a fever, you have a fever!"
This trip is to take our own fishing boat to the Hekou Port in Liaodong first, then change to a train and go straight to the Screw Country, meet up with Xiaoyao to receive the aircraft carrier at the Freezing Port, and finally return.
Since you have to travel by sea all the way back, you need to cross Hokkaido, the Tsushima Strait, and finally return from the Yellow Sea. It takes about half a month to go back and forth.
It was also the first time for Zhang Jiaqiang to go to sea on such a large converted warship. It felt very fresh and fun. He did not want to stay in the stuffy cabin. After leaving the bow, he walked around along the side of the ship. Everything he saw was novel.
At this moment, the seawater under my feet is still turbid, like a pot of gruel. As it gets farther and farther away from the coastline, it gradually becomes clearer.
At this time, the old captain Zhang Dahai came over and said, "Jia Qiang, we are far away from the continental shelf now. The sonar just received the fish information. Do you want to cast a net and take a look?"
Zhang Jiaqiang smiled and said, "You are always the captain, I am just a guest, you decide everything!"
Zhang Dahai was very satisfied with Zhang Jiaqiang's attitude, picked up the walkie-talkie and said.
"First mate, make three turns to the north and maintain the current speed. Operation team, prepare No. 2 net and throw the net in three minutes!"
After speaking, he said to Zhang Jiaqiang, "They almost don't eat fish in Screw Country, but our crew must have sufficient supplies, so setting a small net is just for storing food!"
Zhang Jiaqiang had never seen a fishing boat casting a net before, and he immediately became interested. Zhang Dahai took him into the bridge, from where he could see the situation of the entire ship.
"Look behind you, the net is about to be cast!"
As soon as he finished speaking, he saw a large mass of black mist-like things being thrown out from the stern of the ship, and then several cables were tightened like bowstrings and quickly slid into the sea.
Although the scene is not spectacular, it is interesting to watch.
Soon the crew member responsible for checking the tension reported that the cable tension had reached fifty tons and requested to close the net.
Zhang Dahai shouted loudly, "The net can be closed, the cold storage is ready to pack the fish!"
Zhang Jiaqiang looked through the window and saw a few cables tightening suddenly, the crane's cantilever gradually lifting, and soon a huge net bag was slowly pulled up from under the ship as the sea water surged.
Facing the sun, the silver and golden light in the entire net bag complement each other, as if a net of gold and silver jewelry had been scooped up, which is really beautiful.
As the net bag fell on the workbench, the large splash of water quickly dissipated, and countless fish, large and small, struggled and jumped desperately in the net bag.
Suddenly bursts of cheers in Chinese and Screw languages came from the ship.
Boom, boom, boom, three cannon blasts shook my eardrums.
Zhang Jiaqiang asked curiously, "Why are you still firing off cannons?"
Zhang Dahai smiled and said, "This is the custom on the ship. After the first net out to sea has a good harvest, three signal cannons will be fired, and a cocktail party will be held in the evening to celebrate. Let's go and see the catch!"
As the net bag unfolds, small mountains of big and small fish jump and splash with countless splashes.
Workers are busy sorting the fish according to size, quickly packing them into boxes and sending them to the cold storage.
A bearded man from the screw country picked up a big fish weighing more than ten kilograms and presented it to Zhang Jiaqiang like a treasure.
Jiliguala talked a lot.
Zhang Dahai translated, "This is a large yellow croaker, which is very rare now, and one this big is even more rare!"
In the era when Zhang Jiaqiang was reborn, even artificially bred large yellow croakers could be sold for thousands of yuan per catty.
The wild ones are simply rare and rare delicacies, and you may not be able to buy them no matter how much money you spend.
This extra-large fish was sent to the kitchen and became Zhang Jiaqiang’s lunch.
Eating raw fish porridge, boiled fish fillets, and fresh soup made from fish heads and tails, Zhang Jiaqiang was completely conquered by this delicious seafood even without adding too many spices.
It's a pity that this kind of fish will be difficult to breed even thirty years later, otherwise he would have asked the fishing village to start breeding it now.
Life on board is relatively boring, and the sights that are just beginning to feel fresh become extremely boring after looking at them for a long time.
So drinking became the only entertainment for the crew.
When the dinner started, except for a few crew members on duty, everyone came to the restaurant.
Delicacies made from various seafood and various drinks are piled high.
After Zhang Jiaqiang and old captain Zhang Dahai gave toasts respectively, the restaurant instantly became a sea of joy.
Whether it was the bearded Screw Country crew or the shrewd and capable Chinese crew, they all forgot each other's identity and nationality and quickly became one with each other.
Cups came and went, glasses mingled with each other, and there was a lot of joy. It was so lively.
Zhang Jiaqiang and the old captain were also drunk.
Zhang Jiaqiang, who originally had a poor drinking capacity, was drunk into a puddle before the dinner was over and was sent back to the cabin.
Lying in the single room converted from the captain's cabin, Zhang Jiaqiang was tossing and turning in extreme discomfort, his throat felt like it was on fire, but there was no one around him, and he couldn't move even if he wanted to drink water.
At this moment, the door to the room was pushed open, and a wisp of fragrant wind carried a beautiful figure to his side.
"Brother, this is ice water. You will feel better if you drink some!"
Zhang Jiaqiang glanced at Jiang Xinxin, breathed a sigh of relief, and reached out to take the cup with gratitude.
But he grabbed her wrist. At this moment, he saw double images, his sense of direction was extremely poor, and he couldn't complete simple movements at all.
Jiang Xinxin smiled and said softly.
"Do you want someone to feed you?"
His throat was dry and he was coughing unbearably, so he had no choice but to nod with difficulty.
Jiang Xinxin showed a fox-like smile as if she had succeeded, sat down next to Zhang Jiaqiang gently and held his head.
After a long time, after drinking a glass of water, Zhang Jiaqiang felt cool all over his body, his head recovered a lot, and his energy level also improved.
"Thank you, give me another drink!"
Jiang Xinxin put the water glass aside and said in a greasy voice.
"Brother, please answer a question first!"
"Hey, you asked!"
"When you hit someone before, did you have any evil thoughts?"
"Sorry, a new volume has begun, and I have sorted out the thoughts behind it today, so the update is late, please forgive me!"
