Collect boards in the morning, and tidy up chairs in the afternoon.

Today, many people from the fire department and the fishery administration also came to help reinforce the fish rafts.

Zhou Miao's fishing raft was the furthest out, so it wasn't their turn yet.

After tidying up the tables and chairs and securing them with ropes, they went to help at the Tingtao Fishing Raft.

Before I knew it, night had fallen as I was tidying up.

Zhou Miao, who finally had some free time, took out his phone and saw that Yu Muzhou had sent him two messages, telling him that the fishing competition would be postponed for a few days.

Furthermore, the duration of the match needs to be determined separately. It is said that the typhoon came suddenly, and a lot of money had already been spent on promotional activities for the match, which has now resulted in significant losses.

Now the only way to save costs is to look elsewhere, so they decided to change the duration of the competition, which is expected to be reduced from ten days to five days.

Zhou Miao was not surprised by this; with a typhoon approaching, the competition naturally couldn't be held.

However, the shorter competition time is good news for him, since the prize money remains the same despite the shorter competition time.

The next day, the weather was sunny, but Zhou Miao's fish raft attracted a lot of firefighters and fishery administration staff.

They brought a lot of large anchors to reinforce the fish rafts, and then helped reinforce the wooden houses.

They checked each location and only left after confirming there were no problems.

In the afternoon, Zhou Miao, who had nothing to do, gave Zheng Xiaojia the day off and was preparing to return to her rented apartment when she received a call from Yu Muzhou.

"Ah Miao, I heard from a friend in Shandong that he spotted a large flock of yellowtail amberjack there. A typhoon is coming, and I'm planning to go there for a bit. Want to come along?"

Zhou Miao was surprised to hear this: "Weren't you waiting for the typhoon to pass to prepare for the fishing competition? Even if a typhoon comes, you don't need to go there, do you?"

"The competition has been postponed by five days, which is plenty of time. It won't hurt for me to go there for a couple of days."

"The main reason is that fish tend to migrate to deeper waters after a typhoon arrives. Delaying the storm for a few more days is to wait for the fish to return, so we made this arrangement."

"I see!"

Zhou Miao felt he had learned something new, but he thought it wouldn't be good to run away during a typhoon, so he didn't agree immediately.

"Brother Zhou, I still have a fish raft here. It wouldn't be right to leave without saying a word. I need to discuss it with Xingyu and the others."

"I understand, but please get back to me as soon as possible. I'm planning to book a flight for 3 p.m.

"Okay, I'll get back to you as soon as possible."

Zhou Miao was quite interested in the yellowtail amberjack, having already tasted its sweetness, especially since he was short of money.

Since they're both yellowtail, the prices shouldn't be too different.

So Zhou Miao immediately found Lu Xingyu and told him that he was going fishing with Yu Muzhou to make money.

"It's alright, just go ahead. I'll take care of things here at the fish raft! If something really goes wrong with the fish raft when a typhoon comes, there's nothing we can do even if we're all here. If anything serious happens, I can call you back anytime."

Upon hearing this, Lu Xingyu immediately patted his chest to assure him that he was on his side and told him to go ahead.

He knew that Zhou Miao hadn't given Luo Hao the money for acquiring Tingtao Fish Rafts yet, so this trip would be a good opportunity to earn some of it back.

"Yes, feel free to contact me anytime if needed. I can be back the same day by plane."

After Zhou Miao finished speaking, she noticed Lu Xiaoxiao sitting on the sofa staring at her, and immediately understood her thoughts: "Want to come with me?"

Lu Xiaoxiao nodded subconsciously, then looked embarrassed and said, "I'd better not go. You're going there for important business."

"Come along, and let's invite Qianqian too. You don't necessarily have to come with me; you can wander around on your own."

"Oh, then I'll contact Qianqian."

Lu Xiaoxiao's eyes lit up, and she quickly took out her phone to contact Luo Qianqian.

Therefore, at three o'clock in the afternoon, Yu Muzhou looked at Zhou Miao with mixed feelings, with two beautiful women sitting on either side of him.

He always thought he was living a pretty carefree life, but now, compared to others, he realizes he's nothing special.

Upon arrival, Zhou Miao first arranged rooms for them in a star-rated hotel in the city center, and then they went into the room together to check for any hidden cameras.

After confirming that everything was alright, I transferred five thousand yuan to each of them as pocket money, and then followed Yu Muzhou to the seaside town.

He originally thought he was going out to sea with Yu Muzhou's friends, but he ended up renting a luxurious Class II fishing boat, which was sixteen meters long.

Not only are there three rooms, but there is also a fairly large cryogenic chamber.

"Brother Zhou, where's your friend?"

"At sea! It's the tail end of the autumn fishing season for yellowtail amberjack right now, and you can catch them in the open sea. If it's a week later, they'll have gone to the open sea. At that time, the fish will be scattered, and it won't be as good to catch them as it is now."

"I knew about this news a few days ago, but I had to resist the urge to go fishing because I was preparing for the fishing competition. I didn't expect the typhoon to give me this opportunity."

"Well, we really have to thank the typhoon." Zhou Miao chuckled, but now he also felt that the typhoon was a good thing.

On his way here, he had already looked up information about yellowtail amberjack online and learned that of the three major types of amberjack in China, this one is the most expensive.

However, the yellowtail is also the most difficult to catch, not only because its numbers are much fewer than the other two species, but also because it is as strong as an ox.

Therefore, the yellowtail amberjack is also known as the yellow-striped amberjack by the locals.

Yellowtail amberjack is a cold-water fish that is usually active in the northern waters of my country. Under normal circumstances, Zhou Miao would not be able to catch them unless he sails across the sea or flies over directly like he is now and then goes out to sea.

Yu Muzhou was in a hurry. He rented a boat and, with Zhou Miao, prepared three days' worth of supplies. He also bought a large amount of Antarctic shrimp as bait and a lot of small squid as fish bait. Once everything was ready, he immediately set sail for the target fishing spot.

Zhou Miao didn't spend any money on renting boats, supplies, or bait.

Yu Muzhou took on the entire task, with only one requirement: catch a big fish and sell it to him.

This put Zhou Miao under a lot of pressure. He didn't know if he could catch a big one like he did when he went fishing in Qinghai and Gansu last time, but he hoped there wouldn't be any sharks this time.

The fishing boat set off. He stood next to Yu Muzhou and checked the navigation. He found that the destination was only seventeen nautical miles from the shore, and it would only take an hour to reach.

This luxury fishing boat is fully equipped and even has Wi-Fi.

There's also a fairly large refrigerator in the kitchen, where Zhou Miao would often put some vegetables and fruits to keep them fresh when she had nothing else to do.

There's no need to add drinks; the temperature here is much lower than in Nanzhen.

After organizing the supplies, Zhou Miao didn't even realize how much time had passed before the fishing boat came to a stop.

He got up and saw that there were a large number of fishing boats moored on the sea.

Each boat had at least four or five people, their fishing rods twitching back and forth, making them appear extremely busy.

You can also see yellowtail amberjack caught on the sea, splashing water everywhere, which shows that the fish is very strong.

"This is a good spot. Let's scatter some bait to create a feeding area." Yu Muzhou lowered the anchor, then quickly walked out of the cabin, opened a box full of Antarctic shrimp.

The Antarctic shrimp hadn't thawed much, so he took a hammer, smashed them, and then poured them directly into the water, leaving Zhou Miao stunned.

This time, I really invested a lot in fishing for yellowtail amberjack.
