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 696 Can't catch up?

As the Dong Sheng changed course, the crew of the Feng Shou quickly noticed the anomaly.

In the cockpit, Xiao Zhaojun squinted at the Dong Sheng, which was getting further and further away, and his brows gradually furrowed.

He quickly made a call and shouted, "Dong Sheng, what's going on? Why did you suddenly change course?"

As Feng Ye stepped into the driver's seat, he just heard the radio coming on.

Seeing Ah-chan heading for the walkie-talkie, he quickly said, "Just focus on navigating the boat and don't lose track of the seabirds. I'll handle it."

As he spoke, he took two quick steps, grabbed the walkie-talkie, and pressed the call button: "Uncle Jun, we saw a flock of seabirds flying northeast. There were a lot of them, and we suspect there are schools of fish over there, so we're going to take a look."

"Oh? A flock of birds?"

Xiao Zhaojun also got excited and looked northeast, but all he could see was a vast sea and nothing else.

He wasn't surprised.

After all, the two ships were only a kilometer or two apart, and the Harvest was right to the right of the East Rising.

In addition, the flock of seabirds is in motion, so it's normal that they can't be seen.

He was immediately itching to go and see for himself.

We've been out for so many days and haven't encountered a large school of fish yet.

However, the Harvest Ship couldn't follow immediately; it had to reel in the net first.

"We'll go ahead first, you should hurry up too."

"I'll tell them to close the net right now..."

The call was disconnected.

Clearly, Xiao Zhaojun had gone to call for reinforcements to close the net.

Feng Ye turned his head and saw that the Harvest had changed course and was also heading northeast, but it couldn't pick up speed yet.

Just as he was about to put the walkie-talkie back in the distance, the sound came on again.

“Ah Ye…”

"What's wrong, Uncle Jun?"

Xiao Zhaojun said somewhat awkwardly, "The cargo ship is already on its way, and we..."

Feng Ye interrupted him: "We can't worry about that now. Tracking the seabirds is the priority. I don't want to miss this opportunity. What if there really is a large school of fish?"

"I don't want to miss out either, but we already stood them up once before."

Xiao Zhaojun said with a wry smile, "If this happens again, I don't know how I'm going to explain it to people."

Feng Ye frowned slightly and remained silent for a few seconds: "That's just how things are, it's just a coincidence."

How about this, you tell the seafood collection boat to wait around here for a while.

If we find the fish and successfully catch them, we'll contact him immediately to come and collect them.

If we don't find it, or if the situation isn't ideal, we'll come back as soon as possible.

Is this okay with you?

"I can only..."

Xiao Zhaojun's voice abruptly stopped before he could finish his sentence.

"Uncle Jun, what's wrong now?"

"Ah Ye, I suddenly thought, what if the fish we find are valuable? Should we sell them to the fish-collecting boats too?"

"ah?"

Feng Ye was taken aback; he hadn't really thought about this question.

If it's a really valuable fish, selling it to a fish-collecting boat would be a huge loss, letting them make money for nothing.

They definitely have to sell it themselves when they reach the shore.

But this makes it really hard to explain to the seafood collection ship.

The key is that they are already on their way.

"This is a rather tricky problem."

He scratched his head, unable to come up with a good solution, and said with some distress, "Uncle Jun, what do you think?"

Xiao Zhaojun remained silent for a while before saying helplessly, "Sigh, I have no choice but to risk my reputation and stand him up again."

Although it's a bit unethical to do this, it's still better than selling him valuable goods cheaply.

Feng Ye sighed, "That's all we can do."

He felt a little guilty for standing people up twice.

But doing so was out of sheer necessity.

Who would willingly hand over the benefits they've already gained?

"Let's leave it at that for now. I'll think about how to talk to the seafood collection ship."

"Okay, we'll follow them first. If the seabirds change direction or there are any other issues, I'll let you know immediately."

"Okay, be careful."

"Know."

After Feng Ye finished speaking, he hung up the phone.

He turned to look at Ah-Can: "Ah-Can, speed up a bit, don't lose them."

"I also want to go faster, but this is already the maximum speed."

Ah-Can said somewhat helplessly, "Didn't you see that the accelerator pedal is already pushed all the way down?"

"Oh, really? Then why does it feel so slow to me?"

Feng Ye glanced at the dashboard and saw that the throttle lever was indeed at its limit and could not go any faster.

He frowned, feeling somewhat anxious.

The flock of seabirds flies quite fast, and if the Dong Sheng can't keep up, it's very likely to lose them.

In the end, it will all be for naught.

"Damn, this flock of seabirds came at the worst possible time. It would have been so much better if they had waited until we finished selling our goods."

He then realized that it was because the hold was full of fish.

With such a significant increase in payload, the speed of the Dong Sheng will naturally decrease considerably.

If the vehicle were unloaded, the speed would definitely be much faster, and catching up with this flock of seabirds would probably not be difficult.

As time went by, the distance between the Dong Sheng and the flock of seabirds continued to increase.

The two men's eyes were fixed on the ever-shrinking flock of seabirds, their hearts filled with anxiety.

The flock of seabirds has gradually become a small black dot, hovering on the eastern horizon.

The distance between them and the Dong Sheng is unknown.

"Brother Ye, what should we do? We're going to lose them."
