Chapter 128 The Sixth Expedition
End of September.
The morning was already cool.
The wind is a bit strong.
Kangzi, Zhang Jun and Li Shi had all put on long-sleeved jackets. Ye Qing didn't feel anything, but in order not to be treated specially, he also put on a sweatshirt.
The sea was very rough, and the waves hit the bow of the ship, picking up the water and falling on the deck.
Except for the strong wind.
The weather was excellent, with a clear, cloudless blue sky, and the reflection of the sea was very beautiful.
Ye Qing didn't use a drone.
The wind was too strong and the drone was shaking violently. If it accidentally fell into the sea, he would be heartbroken for several days because of the equipment worth tens of thousands of dollars.
He was filming for fun with a sports camera.
When he walked into the cabin, the camera was aimed at Zhang Jun. Zhang Jun felt completely unwell. He even moved his hands and feet incoherently every two steps. He had a typical camera phobia.
Ye Qing teased him deliberately: "Brother-in-law, what do you want to say about this trip to the sea?"
My brother-in-law coughed and said, "Ahem, this...that...I think...um..."
He was apparently quite talkative, but was speechless when facing a sports camera.
Kangzi looked anxious and shouted, "Qingzi, stop messing with Junge."
"Be careful, we might collide with other ships at sea."
"Come, interview me."
Ye Qing pointed the sports camera at him.
Kangzi faced the camera and said seriously: "This time we go out to sea, our goal is to catch valuable fish."
"first."
"There are a few red-haired crabs in the crab pot."
"Please put a few splendid lobsters in the lobster cage as a token of my appreciation."
Ye Qing quickly stopped him and shouted, "If you keep talking, Mazu will definitely give you two big duels."
Kangzi scratched his head.
Ye Qing looked at Li Shi and asked, "Is the noodles cooked?"
Li Shi nodded.
This time, Ye Lan was in a hurry to go out to sea. She simply performed the incense burning ceremony and went out to sea without even having breakfast.
It doesn't matter.
There are pots, pans, and utensils on the boat.
The meal was quite simple, just instant noodles, with some clams, mantis shrimps, etc. that I hadn’t finished eating last night.
Open the lid of the pot.
The hot mist drifted away with the fresh aroma of seafood.
A total of ten packets of instant noodles were cooked, and the four of them ate up all of them around the pot.
After dinner.
The fishing boat continued to move forward.
It was not until noon that Ye Qing asked Zhang Jun to stop the boat.
Zhang Jun looked bewildered: "Are there any reefs nearby?"
As far as the eye can see, there is not even an island nearby.
Ye Qing nodded and said, "This is the deep sea!"
Kangzi said, "That's okay."
"Our main line is very long, thousands of meters is no problem."
This is of course an exaggeration.
Ye Qing smiled and shouted, "Then put it in the cage."
After throwing down two hundred crab and shrimp cages, Ye Qing took a deep look at the place and asked Zhang Jun to start the fishing boat and continue to head towards farther sea areas.
Only when they were about 150 nautical miles away from Longwei Island did Ye Qing shout to cast the net.
Kangzi hurriedly worked on his homework and shouted, "Qingzi, we ran far enough in one breath this time."
Ye Qing nodded.
actually.
We encountered some schools of fish along the way, but either the schools were small, the fish were small, or their economic value was not high.
now.
The fishing boat had limited capacity, so he had to make a choice.
This is not.
If you come across someone you think is worth taking action against, get off the net immediately.
Kangzi prayed, "I hope the first network can break through the network."
Ye Qing laughed and said, "Be bold."
Kangzi's eyes lit up: "I caught 7081 kilograms of seafood!"
Ye Qing said: "Be bolder."
Kangzi coughed twice. "This seafood costs hundreds of yuan a pound. Qingzi, I think we should be down-to-earth when praying. You're... a bit too much. Let's not embarrass Mazu."
Ye Qing shook his head: "I think that seafood worth hundreds of yuan per pound should not be a problem for Mazu."
Kangzi wanted to say something, but Li Shi started doing stretching exercises.
Kangzi was puzzled: "Brother Shi, what are you doing?"
Li Shi said, "Qingzi said I need to stretch my body first, or I might get stretched when I get busy."
Kangzi was speechless: "That's just a casual remark, don't take it seriously."
Li Shi shook his head: "What Qingzi said must be true."
Two hours later.
Raise the net.
“Crunch.”
The winch kept reeling in the line, and soon the edge of the trawl net appeared on the fishing boat, with a silver pomfret hanging on it, still flapping its wings.
Kangzi took it down and shouted, "About half a pound."
"A silver pomfret this big can be bought for sixty to seventy-one kilograms."
"I was right!"
"Qingzai, Mazu Goddess bless me this time, hahahaha."
He was a little excited. Silver pomfret usually appear in schools. Since the first one was a silver pomfret, it was very likely that all the fish in the trawl net were silver pomfret.
As expected.
The second one was also a silver pomfret, but it was bigger. Judging from the naked eye, it weighed about one kilogram, about the same size as Kangzi's head.
Zhang Jun took a look and shouted, "A silver pomfret this big must be around a hundred yuan per pound."
Kangzi still had a smile on his face, he thought this one might be the bigger one.
But the third one.
The fourth one.
The tenth one.
The 100th...
All of them were silver pomfret weighing over one kilogram, and some of them were ridiculously large, as big as washbasins. When weighed, they were at least three kilograms and five ounces.
Kangzi people are numb.
really.
Qingzai is the favorite cub of Mazu.
He didn't have time to think too much, as he had caught too much fish and was too busy to handle it.
Ye Qing was very satisfied.
Although caught with a trawl net, the silver pomfret did not suffer any damage. Silver pomfret has the characteristic of dying as soon as it goes out to sea. Of course, there are exceptions. Some larger ones are still alive and were quickly put into the live fish tank by Kangzai.
An hour later.
Kangzi sat on the ground, smoking a cigarette, and said, "I give in. I give in."
"Our entire net is actually full of silver pomfret weighing around a pound!"
“It’s sent!”
“It’s been sent!”
Ye Qing was also very happy to hear this. The reason why he chose to cast his net here was because these silver pomfret were all very large. In order to ensure the normal reproduction and growth of the fish population, he also had an obligation to take action.
Because they were in a hurry, they hadn't had lunch yet.
noon.
Ye Qing took two silver pomfret weighing more than three pounds. He steamed one to enjoy its original flavor, and pan-fried the other, sprinkled with cumin and chili powder. The aroma it exuded was so fragrant that people couldn't help but swallow their saliva.
After finishing the meal, the four of them were still not satisfied, so after a brief discussion, they took four smaller silver pomfret, each weighing just over a pound, and made a barbecue.
After it was roasted, the four of them each had one and ate it with their mouths drooling.
Kangzi filmed the whole process with a sports camera and proudly shouted, "Friends, if you are lucky enough to see it."
"Then please allow me to introduce you to today's working meal on the ship."
"Two silver pomfret weighing over three pounds, I estimate they'd cost around two thousand."
"I'm eating grilled silver pomfret now, one hundred yuan."
"This working meal costs 500 to 600 yuan per person."
Zhang Jun laughed and shouted, "Kangzi, please don't stand out."
Kangzi handed the sports camera over and Zhang Jun immediately stopped talking.
Ye Qing put away the action camera and said, "Kangzi, that's enough. The internet is very violent right now. If I post this, be careful that some netizens will get jealous and envious and start a fight between you two online."
Kangzi shrank his neck.
There was a great harvest here, with food and drink and endless fun. Ye Qing didn't know that a fishing boat arrived at the place where the shrimp and crab cages were placed shortly after they left.
Watch the float.
Cai Ya, who was on the deck, frowned and asked, "Uncle, you asked me to watch Ye Qing go out to sea, not to compete with him."
"Are you planning to be a kindhearted person and retrieve Qingzai's cage?"
Guan You touched the scar on his face, smiled playfully, and said, "You're no older, but you're still competing with each other. You're just going fishing for fun. I want to make money!"
"I replaced the radar equipment specifically for tracking, and I have to make back the money!"
"Old Five."
"It's been several hours. Let me fish one out first."
Lao Wu came out, agreed and went to pick up the float.
Cai Ya was anxious and shouted, "No!"
Lao Wu stopped, looked at Cai Ya, and then looked at Guan You.
Guan You smiled coldly and said, "Don't worry about him."
"continue."
"I want to see if Ye Qing's luck is really that weird!"
