Chapter 160: Baron Willy the Fishing
? On the sea in the far sea, the wind is calm and the sun is warm.
Nearly ten huge fishing boats sailed on the sea, bringing up a string of ripples.
This is the conch fishing fleet that departed from Baixiong Town.
At this time, on the middle and largest vessel of the Conch Fishing Fleet, Willy stood on the deck, supporting the wooden railings with both hands, watching the sky in the distance and enjoying the sea breeze, feeling very comfortable for a while.
Before Willy went to sea, he basically carried a mission every time.
Either patrolling or eliminating pirates has never been easier.
"Lord Baron, do you need some refreshments?"
A skinny boy came up and asked Willy.
This is the grandson of old Joel, Aton, who was brought from Fandou by Willy.
Aton is now serving in the Janissaries and has not held any leadership positions. It's not that Willy doesn't reuse him. On the contrary, it is precisely because he values him that he makes Aden exercise and sharpen him step by step from the bottom.
After all, not everyone is blessed with the experience of two lifetimes and the title attribute panel.
So, for Aden, one step at a time is a better way to advance.
Aden has no complaints about Willy's arrangement, not only working hard, but also practicing hard. The current Aden is already a junior knight attendant.
This trip to sea is not a big deal, so Willy did not bring Thorps, Sandor or Dahn, but brought Aden out as a follower, and there were more than a dozen people accompanying him. A soldier.
"No."
Willy waved his hand, indicating that he didn't want to eat for the time being.
Aden looked at Willy's back, and worship rose from his heart.
The baron was originally a farmer's child like himself, but now, with his own efforts, he has become the baron of White Bear Town, which is both amazing and admirable. Aden only hopes that he can work harder, and it is enough to reach one-tenth of the Baron's achievements.
"Lord Baron."
At this moment, a sturdy, bearded man stepped forward.
His name is Yobrin, and he is the third captain of the conch fishing fleet.
The first captain was Jobrin's grandfather, and the second was Jobrin's father.
He comes from a fairly well-known fishing family.
"Now we have basically sailed to the open sea. If you think you can, we are now fishing for the first net."
Facing this young lord, Yobrin was filled with awe.
Although Willy was very peaceful and approachable, Yobrin felt a little uneasy because of the high-ranking atmosphere in his gestures.
In fact, this is not only because Willy has been a lord for half a year and has developed a noble demeanor. It is also related to his strength. The peak strength of an intermediate knight will make him feel a lot of pressure even if he faces a junior knight. .
"Of course, you can fish at any time."
Willy is not a fishing expert, and he has not awakened to a similar title before fishing in the sea.
So at this point, you still have to listen to the opinions of professionals.
"In this case……"
Yobrin bowed slightly: "Then ask Lord Baron to catch the first net."
Willie nodded.
This is also one of the customs of the Blue Whale Town era. When the baron lord follows him out to sea, the first fish must be netted by the baron himself.
If a net full of fish is caught, it means that the fleet will have a rich harvest in the following year.
So at this time, Yobrin turned his anticipation towards Willy.
Immediately afterwards, a crew member took up a small fishing net and handed it to Willy.
Generally speaking, when such large fishing boats are fishing, they use giant nets, which require several people or even a dozen people to stand in different positions. Or cast the net at a high position, and collect the net through the pull rope of the high rod with gears.
The small net in Willy's hand was specially prepared for the baron to cast the net.
At this time, the rest of the crew members on the same ship also came together.
Their hearts were also full of anticipation for the baron to cast a net for fishing.
"Hopefully catch a full net..."
Watching Willy prepare to cast the net, Yobrin prayed silently in his heart.
When the ship sailed here before, Yobrin basically determined that there were a lot of fish in the vicinity through observation.
As long as the net is cast normally, there will be good harvests after all.
He only hoped that the process of casting Willy's net would be smoother, otherwise, if he couldn't catch any fish, it would not only have an unsatisfactory meaning, but also make Lord Baron's face dull.
Of course Willy couldn't hear Jobrin's heart at this time. He grabbed the corner of the fishing net and slammed it into the sea.
As an intermediate knight, he can perceive the fishes swimming in the sea very clearly.
At this time, the net is also thrown towards the place where the sea fish and shrimp are most dense.
Whoa!
The fishing net in Willy's hand was instantly released, like a large flower that suddenly bloomed, falling from the boat into the sea.
"Lord Baron, close the net!"
Yobrin stood aside and reminded Willy.
Willie responded and pulled the cord.
The fishing nets in the water began to gather, tightly wrapping the fish and shrimp in it.
"Oh my God!"
When Willy pulled the fishing net up to the surface, a surprise appeared on Yobrin's face.
The bulging fishing nets looked like they were filled with a lot of fish and shrimp.
Willy's strength is great, and without the help of others, he directly pulls up the fishing net full of fish and shrimp.
Willy opened the fishing net, spread the fish and shrimp on the deck, and spread it directly into a small piece.
The jumping shrimp and the scurrying fish cluttered together on the deck, and they all seemed to know the fate of their own soon to be food.
Looking at the large number of fish and shrimp, the crew suddenly burst into enthusiastic shouts.
The sailors who go to sea believe in the customs of old age.
In their opinion, the fact that Baron Willy caught so many fish and shrimp indicates that the fleet will have a great harvest in the next year.
"Thank you, Lord Baron!"
Yobrin shouted.
This is not only to improve the morale of the crew, but also to secretly flatter Willy Thank you Lord Baron! "
The other crew members also shouted.
Aton stood aside, also booing.
For a time, the atmosphere on the ship was extremely warm.
After a full five minutes, Yobrin stood in front of the deck and shouted loudly: "Okay, now, we officially start work!"
Under Yobrin's order, ten fishing boats started fishing at the same time.
Giant fishing nets were spilled into the sea from the height of the hull, and countless seafood was caught in the nets.
When the nets are opened, the seafood spreads directly over the entire deck.
Crabs, shrimps, starfish, and some strange-looking sea fish fluttered on the deck.
The crew were all enthusiastic and cleaned up the seafood on the deck.
