My fishing raft will ask for help.

Chapter 167 A Busy Day

"You bastard, I'll fight you to the death!"

"You think you can beat them? Go ahead and try. Don't be ridiculous, or you're not having a good day."

Luo Qianqian, who was forcibly woken up due to lack of sleep, blushed as she thought about her behavior last night.

Then she remembered how that scoundrel had sworn last night that he would lie down properly tonight, and her chest heaved with anger.

She tried to hold back, but couldn't resist any longer. Like a moth drawn to a flame, she rushed forward, grabbed Zhou Miao's arm and tried to bite him, but was ruthlessly subdued.

Lu Xiaoxiao sat to the side, her face flushed, taking small bites of breakfast, her body feeling weak.

She just didn't dare to go forward, afraid that she would be completely ruined.

Luo Qianqian is still a novice; she was the one who bore the brunt of the firepower last night.

However, she was also puzzled as to why Zhou Miao had suddenly become so fierce.

She couldn't figure out what was going on after thinking about it for a long time, and she was too lazy to think about it anymore. At least it was a good thing.

Half an hour later, a phone call came in.

Zhou Miao answered the phone and learned that the oysters had arrived. He couldn't continue lecturing Luo Qianqian and hurried out to receive the goods.

Lu Xiaoxiao had finished her breakfast and wanted to go over, but when she looked at Luo Qianqian, she sighed.

"Why do you have to do that? You're so bad at the game, yet you love to play!"

"...That bastard, he's just like a donkey!"

Luo Qianqian grumbled and took the breakfast Lu Xiaoxiao handed her, taking a big bite.

"Stop calling him a 'dog man,' it doesn't sound nice!"

Lu Xiaoxiao pinched her rosy cheeks in annoyance, then went to the wardrobe to find a new bed sheet to change into.

She then climbed into bed, yawned, and continued to catch up on her sleep.

After the two women finished breakfast, they went back to sleep. Zhou Miao had already driven his speedboat to the fish farm and found a boat that delivered oysters, bringing them to the fish farm.

Qin Han and his companions' eyes lit up when they saw the nets full of oysters. Just by looking at them, they could tell that many of the oysters were quite large.

"Ah Miao, are you using these oysters for baiting?"

Zhou Miao nodded: "That's right! The reason you guys are able to catch so many fish is because I usually use things like Antarctic krill to bait the area, and over time a group of fish naturally gather here."

"But the cost is high. Now that the fish raft is renovated, I can bring in a batch of oysters like other fish rafts, which can save a lot of costs."

After hearing his words, Qin Han and the others suddenly realized, "I was wondering why you had so many fish here; you've been baiting the area all along."

Old Wu looked at the oysters with some concern: "Other fishing rafts don't seem to have much success using these oysters as bait. If you use them too, won't you lose your competitiveness when there aren't many fish left?"

His main concern was that this auspicious fishing spot might be lost in the future.

After all, for men his age with families, fishing is a relatively inexpensive hobby.

If I were single, I could go for a foot massage.

"No, I went to great lengths to attract a group of fish by throwing money around, why would I easily give up this advantage?" Zhou Miao smiled at him and said.

The idea that you can use oysters or Antarctic shrimp as bait is a scam. They rely on external aids, not just the bait itself.

Seeing that he seemed to know what was going on, Old Wu and the others naturally didn't say anything more.

If there are no more fish in the future, I'll just stop coming.

Oysters are really cheap this year; Zhou Miao didn't spend much money on these hundreds of kilograms of oysters at all.

Once the bait is placed into the bait cage, the fish at the bottom of the water immediately gather in this direction.

Qin Han and his friends wanted to try it out, and to their surprise, they caught fish as soon as the hook and bait were cast. The efficiency was significantly higher than before, which made the fishermen very happy.

Zhou Miao settled the remaining payment, then carried ten styrofoam boxes to the open space next to him, and went to the tool shed to bring out small barbecue grills and boxes of smokeless charcoal.

Opening the styrofoam box revealed a collection of exceptionally high-quality oysters, each as large as Zhou Miao's palm.

The main reason was that he learned oysters were cheap now, so he specially ordered ten boxes of high-quality oysters to treat today's customers as a kind of opening bonus.

But it was still early, so he first cleaned the oysters and set them aside.

While working, he would check his phone from time to time, because there were still many customers coming today.

These were all customers who had made reservations online in advance; they had already booked their spots even before the fish rafts were completed.

Yu Muzhou also came to join in the fun today, but he didn't need Zhou Miao to pick him up; he came by himself in his fishing boat.

The people who come in the morning are all acquaintances. After arriving at the fishing raft, I greet him and then take out my fishing rod and start fishing.

As a friend, he should have bought a few flower baskets.

Zhou Miao simply couldn't be bothered with all those formalities, so he rejected them all.

By 10 a.m., a group of unfamiliar customers finally arrived.

It's a family of five, a couple with three children. Judging from their clothes and appearance, their family seems to be well-off.

Zhou Miao also dropped the people off at the fish raft and then left them there, because as more and more customers came to the fish raft, Lu Xiaoxiao and Luo Qianqian got up and came out to help.

Meanwhile, Luo Hao, who was all alone at Tingtao Fishing Raft, saw that there were no customers at his raft and even his sister wasn't coming to work today, so he simply closed the raft and ran to Xuan Gui Fishing Raft.

Seeing him come over, Zhou Miao's eyes lit up, and she pushed him directly into the kitchen.

He bought an extra barbecue grill to solve the problem of not having a chef at his own fishing raft. Once the grill is set up, he can cook for himself and be self-sufficient!

It can also boost sales of meat, vegetables, and alcoholic beverages.

But since Luo Hao came on his own, Zhou Miao naturally wouldn't let the opportunity to conscript him pass by.

Luo Hao, who was pushed into the kitchen, was speechless. He originally just wanted to come and see what was going on, but he ended up being a chef at his own fishing raft and here he was still a chef.

Looking at the busy group of people and the dozens of leisurely customers, Zhou Miao was in a good mood. This should be considered a good start!

The busy period lasted all day, mainly the afternoon was spent cleaning up the charcoal grill and tidying up.

In the evening, Lu Xingyu finally returned.

Seeing so many customers, he was stunned for a moment before rushing over to help Zhou Miao tidy up the barbecue grill and clean up the trash.

At the end of the day, the customers didn't need much service, but the amount of garbage generated by dozens of people was particularly large.

Lu Xingyu helped for a short while before Zhou Miao sent him off to feed the sea turtles.

At least half of our customers came today specifically for the sea turtles, so we need to make them feel like their money was well spent.

Lu Xingyu knew what he had rushed back to do today, so he immediately went to a wooden house on the side to change into a diving suit, and then went down to lure the sea turtle out.

After Lu Xingyu left, no one fed them anymore, and the sea turtles stopped appearing. He needed to take the initiative.

Not long after he went into the water, he slowly emerged from the surface sitting on the back of a sea turtle, eliciting gasps of surprise from the expectant customers.

"You can feed the turtles with the fish you catch yourself, but not with anything else. Just throw the fish in front of them, don't feed them directly with your hands to avoid being bitten."

Lu Xingyu immediately reminded the customer loudly and took a small fish from the net bag at his waist and threw it in front of the sea turtle as a demonstration.

In an instant, Lu Xingyu started throwing in "fish". If there hadn't been so few customers, he probably would have been drowned.

The sea turtle didn't stand on ceremony, devouring the fresh little fish one by one with great relish.

It wasn't until 8 p.m. that most of the customers left.

Zhou Miao doesn't offer accommodation, so visitors naturally won't stay. After leaving, they can go elsewhere to try local delicacies and stroll through the night market in the evening.

"Phew, finally done!" After seeing the last few customers off, Zhou Miao returned to the fish raft and plopped down in his deck chair.

There weren't actually many things to do, but with so many customers, he was exhausted by the end of the day, and all the joy of a busy business was gone.

"Your opening is a huge success!" Luo Hao said, sitting down next to him with a hint of envy.
