Returning to 1990, Starting with a Big Catch

Feng Ye just wanted to save someone who had fallen into the sea, but he didn't expect to drag himself down with them, returning to 1990.

He also wanted to do business with the Russians, t...

Chapter 453 The net exploded, there's a big fish!

Instead of sorting the fish, they first set out the fishing nets in their boat.

They brought out 30 nets, which is neither a lot nor a little.

With their combined efforts, the show was finished in less than an hour.

They don't plan to collect these 30 nets today; they'll leave them out for a day and a night, and collect them tomorrow.

If we allow more time, we can get more goods online.

Anyway, they have enough fishing nets, so even if the weather is good and they can go out to sea continuously, they can manage the resources and keep fishing nets going every day.

After setting the gillnet down, they put the trawl net into the sea and continued trawling.

Ah-Can was still steering the boat, while Feng-Ye stayed on deck sorting through the fish that had been hauled up earlier.

There weren't many items, so sorting was quick, taking only about twenty minutes.

With nothing to do, he simply lay down on the bow of the boat and took a nap.

I was already a little sleep-deprived, and being in the warm sun made me even sleepier.

He still had a whole day of work to do, so he needed to get plenty of rest.

It's a good opportunity to take a nap during a break from my work.

Whether or not you can fall asleep is not a problem at all.

He must have mastered the ability to fall asleep anytime, anywhere in his past life.

Let alone minor storms, even in the face of major storms, he can still sleep as long as he keeps his body still.

However, he didn't sleep soundly even though he was lying on the bow of the boat.

It wasn't because the waves were making the fishing boat rock; that's perfectly normal and wouldn't affect him.

The real reason was that the spray from the waves created by the Asahi Ship cutting through the water woke him up.

He thought it was going to rain and immediately woke up.

When I came to my senses, I realized that the sun was still shining brightly; it wasn't raining at all.

"Damn, it was just waves. I thought it was raining..."

He wiped the seawater off his face and patted the water droplets off his clothes.

Fortunately, his jacket was somewhat waterproof, otherwise he would have gotten soaked.

"What a jerk's dream, what a damn disappointment."

He couldn't help but spit out a mouthful of water as he looked at the rolling waves on the sea.

He just had a dream where he was sailing around the world on a yacht with a boatload of beautiful women, it was incredibly wonderful...

I don't know how long I slept, but the wind and waves had gotten much bigger.

It looks like things are really about to change.

If not today, then tomorrow.

Unable to sleep at the bow, he decided to return to his cabin to continue his sleep, hoping to rekindle his sweet dream.

Before he could even step into the cabin, Ah-chan called out to him.

"Brother Ye, what are you doing inside? Aren't you going to close the net?"

"Has it been dragging on for a long time?"

"You'll know if you look at where the sun is."

Feng Ye looked up and realized that it was indeed getting late; he estimated it was past eleven o'clock.

In other words, this operation has been dragging on for more than three hours.

Ah-Can continued, "I should have put it away a long time ago, but I didn't wake you because you were sleeping like a log."

"You're the dead pig."

Feng Ye replied, then turned and strode quickly to the stern of the boat, preparing to begin hauling in the nets.

Ah-chan also stopped the boat and went to the stern to help.

One person can haul in a trawl net, but it will be very slow, since one has to keep an eye on the trawl nets on both sides.

The net-lifting machine started, and the rigging line was slowly pulled up.

However, the machine made a creaking sound.

Ah-Can was stunned for a moment, then exclaimed with delight, "Is the cargo too heavy and about to burst the net?"

"It's also possible that the network setup machine needs maintenance."

Feng Ye, however, poured cold water on his enthusiasm.

He genuinely believed that.

Seawater has a high salt content, which can easily corrode machinery over time, causing it to make unusual noises.

They've had this internet setup machine for almost six months now, and it hasn't broken down yet, so it's not surprising that it's starting to have some minor problems.

Besides, it's winter now, and most fish have migrated away, so it's not that easy to break the net.

"Can't we hope for something better? Maybe it'll be a bumper harvest."

"If you don't believe me, fine. You'll see if I'm right once we collect them."

Ah-Can leaned closer to the internet connection machine and examined it carefully: "Isn't this machine working perfectly fine? I don't see anything wrong with it."

"What a pig-brain."

Feng Ye shook his head. "The machine is running normally, and its speed hasn't slowed down, but it's making an unusual sound. What does that mean?"

"ah?"

Ah-chan belatedly realized what was happening and finally understood, and then fell silent.

It seems that this network machine really needs maintenance.

As the net-lifting machine continued to make a deep, panting sound, the tow rope was gradually retracted, and the net gradually emerged from the water.

Looking at the bulging net bag, Ah-Can said excitedly, "See, see, I told you the net burst, but you didn't believe me."

Feng Ye touched his nose, feeling somewhat embarrassed.

Unexpectedly, Ah-Can's thoughtless words actually came true, and this net really did explode.

The net bag is bulging as if it's about to burst; there must be a lot of fish inside, probably six or seven hundred pounds.

Before the net was even pulled to the stern, Feng Ye spotted a huge fish head inside.

He exclaimed with delight, "There's a big fish! Its head is huge!"

"I saw it too, it looks like a mackerel. It has a huge head, it's rare to see such a big mackerel."

Ah-chan saw it too, and was very happy.

Who doesn't like big fish?

Whether it's valuable or not is another matter; as long as it's big enough, it's exciting enough.

What's more, it looks like a mackerel, which makes it even more exciting.

"It definitely looks like a mackerel, quickly hoist it up..."

The two men excitedly used a crane to lift the net bag from the sea and slowly raise it to the air above the deck.

"Hmm, this big fish doesn't look like a mackerel, it looks like a golden mackerel."

Feng Ye examined the exposed part of the fish's body carefully and couldn't help but feel somewhat disappointed.

Ah-Can was a little confused.

Golden mackerel?

Is there any other type of mackerel called that?

How come I didn't know?

He knew that there were many varieties of mackerel, with Spanish mackerel being just one of them, along with other types such as striped mackerel, flat mackerel, bamboo mackerel, and pointed mackerel.

They belong to the same category but different species.

He took a closer look and found that although the fish looked similar to the mackerel, there were indeed some differences.

Fish in the ocean, even those with slight differences, can all have their own names.

This golden mackerel might be one of the varieties of mackerel?

It's just that I haven't heard of it before.

That's what he was thinking, and that's what he asked.

Please forgive his ignorance, and you can't blame him for being uneducated.

The blame lies with the abundance of marine life and the poor flow of information these days.
