The sky collapsed, and in the blink of an eye, I found myself transported to Nanluoguxiang.
Chapter 121 Zhou Zhiming's Stubbornness
As the boat moved further and further away from the shore.
"Ah! The sea, I've come to conquer you!" Zhou Zhiming stood at the bow of the ship, spread his arms, and shouted at the top of his lungs.
The experienced crew members on the same ship, as well as some colleagues from the transport team, all cast strange glances at them.
Li Kaixin and the others quietly stepped back a few paces, distancing themselves from Zhou Zhiming. Even Wu Tian, who was usually quite shameless, was no exception; it was simply too embarrassing.
When Zhou Zhiming turned around, he realized that his master and Wu Tian had already moved far away.
So he waved and shouted, "Masters! Come and see! The scenery here is beautiful!"
Li Kaixin couldn't stand it anymore, so she turned around and pretended to be having a deep conversation with Wu Tian and the others.
Wu Tian, Qian Dazhuang, and Song Hai understood immediately and began gesturing earnestly, completely ignoring Zhou Zhiming's shouts.
Seeing that no one was paying attention to him, Zhou Zhiming walked back from the bow of the boat and asked in confusion, "Masters, didn't you hear me calling you just now?"
"Oh, we were talking, I didn't hear you," Li Kaixin replied without changing her expression.
"Yes, yes!" Wu Tian, Qian Dazhuang, and Song Hai quickly echoed.
Although Zhou Zhiming was somewhat suspicious, he didn't think too much about it and invited him with a smile, "Master, would you like to go to the bow of the boat and take a look? The scenery there is really nice."
"No, no, I have something to ask Uncle Liu. You can ask Wu Tian and the others to go." Li Kaixin said, and almost fled into the cabin.
After watching his master leave, Zhou Zhiming turned to look at the other three.
Seeing this, Wu Tian and his group used a similar excuse and hurriedly left.
Seeing this, Zhou Zhiming was somewhat bewildered and stood there stunned for a moment.
Time flies, and two hours passed in the blink of an eye.
"Ugh—" Zhou Zhiming leaned over the gunwale and vomited again. This was the fourth time he had vomited.
Wu Tian and Song Hai followed, and they also vomited two or three times, their faces as white as paper.
The only ones who didn't vomit were Li Kaixin and Qian Dazhuang.
"Well, now you understand what I meant before I left, right?" Li Kaixin helped Zhou Zhiming up and handed him a bowl of water with a smile.
Zhou Zhiming took the water and rinsed his mouth, saying weakly, "Master, please stop teasing me. I don't know how I'm going to explain this to Uncle Liu later."
"Who told you to be so quick-tongued? Look at Wu Tian and the others, none of them are as loud and boisterous as you!"
"Consider this a lesson learned," Li Kaixin scolded irritably.
Upon hearing this, Zhou Zhiming became even more anxious: "Master, please don't! If I embarrass myself later, wouldn't that be the same as you embarrassing yourself?"
Li Kaixin was speechless for a moment, thinking to himself: If you lose face, then I lose face. Just now at the bow of the boat, you made me lose face completely.
But seeing Zhou Zhiming's pleading eyes, she softened: "Alright, alright, I'll help you with the work Uncle Liu arranges later, we'll do it together."
"Thank you, Master! You're so kind to me!" Zhou Zhiming smiled and said in a sweet, coquettish voice.
Li Kaixin immediately got goosebumps. He really wanted to throw his apprentice into the sea to feed the fish.
Just then, the ship's loudspeaker blared, and Liu Zhi's voice came through:
"Attention everyone, we are about to arrive at the next distribution point. Please prepare accordingly!"
Immediately afterwards, Liu Zhi emerged from the cabin and walked towards them.
Upon approaching, seeing the pale faces of Zhou Zhiming and Wu Tian, he asked with concern, "Young comrades, are you alright? Can you hold on?"
Zhou Zhiming, unwilling to show weakness, forced himself to sit up straight and forced a smile: "Uncle Liu, I'm fine! I still have boundless energy!"
As he spoke, he raised his hand again, revealing his biceps.
"Okay! Then you can help the experienced workers set the nets later."
Liu Zhi saw Zhou Zhiming's forced composure and knew exactly what was going on, but he didn't point it out.
"I guarantee I'll complete the mission!" Zhou Zhiming puffed out his chest and replied.
As soon as Liu Zhi turned and walked away, he deflated like a punctured balloon and slumped down.
Li Kaixin's lips twitched; he truly hadn't expected Zhou Zhiming to be so stubborn.
"Let's go, we've already said it, let's find an experienced technician to help us set up the net."
As Li Kaixin spoke, he helped Zhou Zhiming up from the deck, then turned to Qian Dazhuang and said, "Dazhuang, you look after Xiaotian and Xiaosong."
"Okay, I'm happy." Qian Dazhuang nodded, helping Wu Tian and the other man up.
Setting the fishing net isn't actually too strenuous; the experienced crew on the boat are more than capable of handling it.
The main task of those who came with the ship was to haul in the nets later.
This was something Li Kaixin had specifically asked Uncle Liu about two hours earlier.
Li Kaixin helped Zhou Zhiming find an old man who looked honest and was sorting out fishing nets.
Smiling, he asked, "Master, do you need any help here?"
The old man looked up and saw two unfamiliar young men. He guessed that they were the helpers he had hired to pull the nets today, so he said kindly, "Young men, you can help pull the nets in the back. You don't need to help here right now."
"Master, we know. We were just wondering if we could learn from you how to set up an internet connection. Is that alright?" Li Kaixin asked.
Upon hearing this, the experienced craftsman's face immediately broke into a smile: "Sure! Why not? I'm overjoyed that you're willing to learn!"
Then, he rubbed his hands together and said enthusiastically, "Okay, just watch how I do it and follow along, alright?"
"Okay! Thank you, Master!" Li Kaixin quickly replied.
The ship moved forward for a while, but its overall speed gradually decreased.
"Cast the nets!" came the command over the loudspeaker, and all the fishing nets on the boats were thrown into the sea.
The experienced worker next to Li Kaixin was no exception; with a flick of his arm, the nets unfurled and fell into the sea.
Li Kaixin watched carefully for a moment, then followed the master and cast his fishing net in the same manner.
As for Zhou Zhiming, he could barely stand up straight at this moment, and could only hold onto the gunwale and watch longingly from behind the two men.
Only then did Li Kaixin realize that the fishing net was truly enormous. The experienced boatmen on both sides of the boat threw the two ends of the net to the two small boats following on either side before they were able to straighten the net.
After the entire net was cast, Li Kaixin understood the purpose of the small boat.
This is to spread the nets wider and expand the fishing area.
The fishing net was not completely detached from the large ship; one end was still tied to the stern and towed by the ship as it moved forward in the sea.
