Why doesn't Lao Huangli let fishing?

People in ancient times didn't want to go fishing, not because they were lazy, but because conditions didn't allow them.

First of all, ancient fishing vehicles didn't work.

In ancient times, there were no such big ships. Some of them just wrote small rafts, which will become very unstable when encountering rapids. It may be possible to catch those small fish on the shallow beach by such a small raft, but it is impossible to fish in the sea or other areas where fish live. However, the number of fish in shallow waters is limited, so it is ok to catch one or two occasionally to satisfy hunger, and it is impossible to satisfy hunger by this kind of fishing. The number of those fish simply can't meet people's demand for food.

Second, the ancient fishing tools were not good.

In ancient times, only forks were used for fishing, so the probability that harpoon fish could get it is very small. So maybe I haven't caught a fish all day. It's different now. Now people's wisdom is getting higher and higher. When people fish, they can use fishing rods, fishing nets and even cast nets in the sea and collect them in a few days. But this is ancient. Where did the fishing net come from? At that time, they had not invented fishing nets, so fishing was not easy, so naturally there was no way to solve the hunger problem by fishing.

Third, most ancient people farmed and had no intention of fishing.

Most ancient people lived by farming. They cultivated, and the land they planted not only met their family's food rations, but also gave it to the court as a tax. If this family doesn't go out to farm, what will they give to the court? At that time, if you can't pay taxes to the court on time and in quantity, the consequences will be very serious and may kill a family. Therefore, people in ancient times devoted themselves to farming and did not study fishing too much. In addition, they naturally don't want to make a living by fishing because of their poor technology.
