Chapter 124
"Forget it, I'm still worried, I can only use..."
Three months later, Sima Zhong died after eating a poisoned cake. Sima Yan took the opportunity to appoint another prince.
It was already noon when Qi Cheng climbed out of bed. He had played a little late yesterday and his head still felt a little uncomfortable. After washing his face, he collapsed on the sofa again.
"Wake up! Why are you still sleeping?" Zhou Lu opened the door and came in. "Do you know that the morning is the most important part of the day? Do you know that there is no need to sleep during life? You will naturally sleep forever after death."
Qi Cheng stood up and kicked him, asking him what he was doing there, and whether he was planning to make up for the barbecue he owed!
"Come with me, it's much more interesting than a barbecue." Zhou Lu grabbed Qi Cheng and got into his car. "It will definitely surprise you."
Qi Cheng was wondering all the way what Zhou Lu was up to. This kid was very curious. He wondered if he was going to some adventure house again.
When they arrived at the place, Qi Cheng was indeed surprised. The boy took him to the dock and to a broken boat, which was a fishing boat. A fishy smell hit him in the face.
"Get on board!" Zhou Lu pulled Qi Cheng aboard. "I'm planning to start a business with this boat. What do you think? If I make money in the future, I'll treat you to a roasted whole lamb!"
Starting a business? Zhou Lu was just like him, a slave in the factory. Even a fishing boat wasn't cheap, and he didn't know how to drive one.
"I have a boat driver's license, and this boat is free; I borrowed it from a relative." Zhou Lu said with a smile, "I plan to take people out fishing. The net will cost 500 yuan."
Qi Cheng had heard of this kind of fishing, where they took some tourists out to sea and the tourists paid for a net of fish. Given the current offshore fishery resources, it was highly likely that they wouldn't catch anything good.
However, some tourists do prefer to try it out after spending money to experience it.
Not only that, you can also take people out for sea fishing or something.
While Qi Cheng was looking around, Zhou Lu had already started the diesel engine and slowly drove the boat out of the dock. Half an hour later, they arrived at the designated location.
The water here looks very deep.
It was also Qi Cheng's first time going out to sea. He felt a little scared here and could only squeeze into the narrow cab with Zhou Lu.
……
The fishermen outside the tent found it a little unbelievable that people in later times would still pay to cast their nets in the sea. Now they cast their nets themselves.
Only ships that can go out to sea hire people.
At that time, seafood was not valuable and could not fill their stomachs, so as long as they had some land, they would not choose to go out to sea to fish.

The sea merchants gathered in Quanzhou stared carefully at the small boat on the sky. It had no sails and only two people on it, so how could it run so fast?
It only took a short while to run so far.
It's incredible.
"I think it must have used similar technology to the live streamer's car. We can't build it." A merchant shook his head. "It's just for fun."
"Ugh."
Some sea merchants disagreed and said, "By the way, didn't the host talk about the steam engine before? What if we install a steam engine on a ship? How is our court's research going?"
Those who were familiar with the court's situation shook their heads. After so many days, the court had only created the outer shell, and there was still no progress in the research on the inside.
The rubber the anchor mentioned cannot be found, and no one is willing to go to the Tianshan Mountains in the Western Regions to take a look.
"These officials are too slow. If we continue at this rate, how long will it take to get it on board? I think it's better for us to find a craftsman to do it ourselves. When we travel overseas, keep an eye out for this rubber. Who knows, we might find it soon."
"That's a good idea. I'm willing to donate fifty thousand dollars."
"I'll give you thirty thousand."
"I'll give you ten thousand."
……
Just as these sea merchants were trying to find ways to upgrade their ships, Zhou Lu had already taken out two fishing rods from a corner and asked Qi Cheng to go fishing with him.
