The top of the can was cut off, and a hole was made in the bottom. A steel wire was threaded through it. Weights of three kilograms were placed into the pot, and with the fire turned up high, the lead melted. It was then poured into the can and placed into a bucket filled with water, resulting in a three-kilogram lead weight.
Once the first one was completed, I gained experience, making the second and third ones much easier.
With three lead weights finished, we arrived at a new fishing spot—a small island with a diameter of twenty meters. Its name was quite impressive: Wulong Island. Reflecting on Mr. Wulong, I could be certain that he would never set foot on this little island; it seemed this Wulong was not the same as that Wulong!
The names of these islands were given only about ten years ago. Seventy-one islands were named in one go. Despite Wulong Island being small, it wasn’t even the smallest; there were islands like Dragon Ball Island, which barely had five square meters—two people standing on it would feel cramped!
This name is great. When I return, I’ll get a few fiberglass fishing boats and name them after this island, so people can bring their fishermen here to fish! Looking at the names on the nautical chart, Shi Tian lifted his rod and casually remarked.
Bringing people here to fish is definitely doable. If I get a few fiberglass fishing boats with two external engines each, it would only take about a hundred liters of fuel for a round trip from Fujian. A few laps around here would be manageable with two hundred liters of fuel.
Charging each person one thousand yuan means that with three people, we break even; everything else is profit. As long as there are enough fishermen, over two days on one boat could easily earn three to four thousand yuan; if fully booked, it could surpass five thousand.
“Save some effort! Don’t cause trouble! There aren’t any big fish here; what are you bringing people to catch?” Shi Ye glanced at his nephew with some frustration. This place is over a hundred kilometers away from Fujian; if something goes wrong while running here in a fiberglass boat, there wouldn’t be enough time for rescue!
“This plan is reliable; if we get more than ten boats, I’ll have the Coast Guard escort you!” The boat stopped, and several old men emerged from the cabin. Seeing Shi Ye’s opposition, Old Liu immediately supported him.
The government encourages fishermen to come here to fish and supports fishermen coming here for recreational fishing. The more people come, the more it asserts our sovereignty—much more effective than just a few words at a press conference.
“Right?” Shi Tianyi asked. Old Liu ’s face darkened: “Can you not bring that up? Because of that topic, those kids are too scared to come back!”
“If you want to do this, Xiao Tian should stay out of it! You’re the only heir of the Old Shi Family. The territory I’ve secured for you is enough for you to squander your whole life; you need to recognize your identity—you’re just a rich second generation! Making money isn’t something you should worry about!”
After finishing his sentence, Shi Ye opened the ice chamber and dragged out a still-soft mahi mahi. With a swift motion of his knife, he cut it into small pieces and hooked them onto his line along with a large lead weight before casting it into the sea.
“Your second uncle is right; this isn’t your responsibility. When you get back, let Li Ping handle this—he loves fishing and is perfect for this job!”
As the cabin door swung open, Kong Yunfei stepped out and chimed in: “Don’t waste those cooking skills your master painstakingly taught you! I’ll find you some storefronts later; opening several restaurants will be much less stressful than drifting at sea!”
Upon hearing this, Shi Ye squinted at Kong Yunfei; it seemed he intended to pave the way for Pingtou Ge.
In just a few days, Kong Yunlong would be transferred to Beijing. He wanted Pingtou Ge to achieve some results here while also building relationships with several old men. After mingling with them for half a year and making some progress, there would be opportunities to arrange him within the system—this would be an easy climb to success.
“Kong Shu,” he said seriously, “I can’t decide this alone; I need to discuss it with Xiao Yu. We must have Xiao Yu personally invite Li Ping! He cares about Xiao Yu and will definitely agree!”
Hu Shuyi had long wanted Pingtou Ge back but had been held back by Kong Yunfei. This opportunity to curry favor with Zhang Ji Niang shouldn’t be handed over easily.
Hearing this, Old Wen glanced at Shi Tian: “You’re quite good at turning one favor into three! You play this game better than I do!”
“Alright, discuss this well with Xiao Yu; he has a good relationship with Li Ping—he’ll listen to Xiao Yu!” Kong Yunfei chuckled as he rubbed his nose in response to Shi Tianyi.
When discussing carbon fiber earlier, Kong Yunfei had considered bringing Pingtou Ge over. However, upon reflection, he realized he couldn’t manage such a large operation alone; if he brought Pingtou Ge over now, those old men would definitely not agree.
Ceramic Bearing is also an opportunity, but Old Lu is keeping a close watch on it. Allowing Pingtou Ge to make a name for himself might not lead to any significant achievements once he gets involved.
