Chapter 53: Fishing in Shichahai Seeking Investment and Reading
"The old guy is really insidious?!"

One thousand yuan for ten times is equivalent to one hundred yuan per time. It sounds expensive, and it is indeed expensive.

But since the deal has been reached, He Yuzhu does not regret it. It's only a thousand yuan, so he might as well just treat it as feeding the dog.

And if you do it ten times, if you catch a big fish one of them, wouldn’t that be a huge profit?

In the past, when He Yuzhu was at home, he liked to watch short videos.

In that corner of the Northeast, people fish by breaking ice.

I catch a fish every now and then, and they are all quite big. I don’t know if it’s true, so I decided to try it myself this time.

"Then let's go, Uncle Yan. I'll give you more money when we get back."

Yan Bugui laughed, as happy as a fool, and said, "Wait for me to go back to the house and get you a fishing rod.

After a while, Yan Bugui came out, handed the things to He Yuzhu, and said, "It's done, let's go."

He was not afraid that He Yuzhu would default on his debt.

In this way, the three of them headed towards Houhai of Shichahai in a mighty manner.

He Yuzhu took a quick look and found that there were quite a few people there, and like them, they came here with equipment to fish.

It seems that no matter what era, there are always fishermen.

At this time, fishing can satisfy one's hobby on the one hand, and on the other hand, the fish caught can be sold to supplement the family income.

The only drawback is that the weather is a bit cold, freezing my hands and feet.

He Yuzhu glanced at the river surface and saw a thin layer of ice.

Yan Bugui said, "Zhu Zi, find a spot to fish. By the way, you don't have bait yet, but Uncle San has some. The price is the same, 100 yuan for 10 corn kernels. How about that?"

Nowadays, there are not a variety of baits for you to choose from when fishing. In summer, you can also dig earthworms in the soil because fish prefer to eat earthworms which have a fishy smell.

Earthworms usually like darkness, moisture, quietness, warmth, sweet and sour environment, and live alone; they are afraid of light, shock, immersion, salt, spicy food, cold and heat.

Therefore, earthworms are usually found in places with soft and fertile soil, generally in black soil and clay, and there are fewer earthworms in compacted soil and sand. Therefore, it is very difficult to catch earthworms in winter, but it is not completely hopeless.

In winter, there is a lot of chicken manure in the soil, but it must be wet. If it is not dry, you need to dig deeper.

Or it may be under a pile of firewood or next to a garbage dump (you have to dig in the moist soil underneath to get it).

They can also be caught in fertile vegetable gardens and fields, and can be collected simply by turning the soil with a shovel.

There was also the rotten grass underneath. He Yuzhu glanced at Yan Bugui and said, "Thank you so much, Uncle Yan, but you don't need it. You should keep the corn kernels for yourself."

He had seen the corn kernels used by Yan Bugui. Normal corn kernels were cut into seven or eight pieces. Are you sure such small things can catch fish?

Buying ten pills for a hundred dollars, do you really think he is a fool?

Yan Bugui is indeed a stingy old man, he is so stingy even with fish.

"Yushui, come on, let's go fishing somewhere else."

"Oh."

Little He Yushui responded, and the two siblings came to a deserted place. He Yuzhu brought two big stones to use as stools.

"Brother, how can we fish without bait?"

He Yushui asked.

He Yuzhu said: "I just don't believe that we can't find an earthworm."

He found a sharp stone, found a place with soft soil by the river and started digging.

He Yushui also learned from him, found a piece of land and started digging hard, his face full of excitement.

What is there to say?

As long as I don’t go to school, I can do anything.

He Yuzhu changed three or four places but couldn't find any earthworms. The soil was frozen, which shows how cold the weather was.

"Damn, there can't be any earthworms, then I'd have bought this fishing rod in vain! " He Yuzhu muttered and found a place to continue digging.

I don't know how long it took, but suddenly, He Yushui shouted, "Brother, I dug it up."

"Ok?"

He Yuzhu quickly stood up and asked, "What did you dig up?"

"Brother, look."

He Yushui raised his muddy hands and pointed to the place he had dug.

“It’s really an earthworm…”

As for earthworms, generally the red ones are in their larval stage and have relatively thin bodies. However, the one dug by He Yuzhu is gray, in its adult stage, and quite long, about as thick as the little finger of He Yushui at his age. However, there are several pink and relatively thin earthworms entangled in this gray earthworm.

Obviously this could be a family.

"No matter what, the family must be in order."

It might be because it is winter and the earthworms were already frozen when they were dug out, and their reactions were not very flexible.

Whether or not you can dig this thing out depends entirely on luck.

I dug in five or six places but didn't see any. But my sister found it in the rain, so she only dug in one place and found it.

Is it because I am unlucky?
He Yuzhu politely invited the whole family out, then used a stone to divide the gray adult earthworm into four sections, each section was about the length of a little toe. He Yuzhu took out a section, hung it on the fishhook, and threw it into the water.

"Brother, can this catch any fish?"

He Yuzhu shook his head and said, "I don't know. I've never fished before. By the way, go see if Uncle Yan has caught any fish. We've been working here for a while."

"it is good."

He Yushui responded and skipped away.

After a while, he returned and said excitedly: "Brother, Uncle Yan didn't catch any fish either. He said that you need to be patient when fishing."

He Yuzhu rolled his eyes. It was a thing that was so stingy with fish that there was no chance that it could be caught.

In the middle of winter, there is not much food in the river.

He Yushui felt bored after sitting for a while, especially because her hands and feet were cold. Seeing that there was no movement on the fishing rod, she simply ran to see if anyone else had caught any fish.

He Yuzhu sat quietly. Fishing requires patience, mainly because the experience points in his mind kept increasing.

As his experience points increased, He Yuzhu also gained some insights.

Fishing requires patience, and selection is also very important.

With nothing to do, he simply took out the book he bought at the market that day from his space and started reading.
