"Wow, this fish is really strong!"
Fu Wan exclaimed in surprise, gripping the fishing rod tightly and following the fish's momentum.
Fu Wan didn't know how heavy the fish was, but based on the force it exerted, she guessed that it couldn't be small.
Jiang Chunlan and Ye Xiaocui also noticed Fu Wan's situation at this time. After sneaking around for a few more minutes, they saw that Fu Wan's forehead was covered in sweat like rain, and they knew that she was about to give up.
"Mom, go quickly and call my father, I have no strength left!"
"Okay, okay, I'll go right away!"
Ye Xiaocui turned and was about to run towards the cabin. This man was really something; when she needed him, he was still fast asleep.
Jiang Chunlan had never fished before, so she was helpless at this moment. Fu Liang, on the other hand, was really anxious. He was afraid that his sister would get tired and that the fish would get away, so he simply pushed himself up with both hands and jumped over from the boat.
Fortunately, the two boats were close together. Before Jiang Chunlan could even slap the boy, he snatched the fishing rod from Fu Wan's hand and began to fight the fish below.
With the pressure gone, Fu Wan took a towel from the side and wiped the sweat from her face. Oh dear, she was exhausted.
However, this was a bittersweet experience, as Fu Wan's experience indicated that there was definitely a big fish down there!
After playing the fish for more than ten minutes with no sign of it coming up, Fu Liang was starting to feel exhausted. Just then, Boss Fu took the fishing rod from the side.
"I'll do it!"
Fu Liang was finally relieved.
Fu Wan stood by and watched Boss Fu reel in the fish. Boss Fu was indeed a seasoned angler, especially a seasoned sea angler. He treated the fish as if he were playing with it. Whenever the fish paused, he would lift the rod, and whenever the fish moved, he would let it tug on the line.
After a while, Fu Wan saw the figure emerge from the clear seawater.
My goodness, today is such a lucky day! It's a tuna that she hasn't seen since her rebirth. And judging by the color of its dorsal fin, it's a bluefin tuna!
"It's tuna, bluefin tuna!"
Fu Wan shouted, then quickly went to find a large fishhook for fishing.
This big fishhook hasn't been used in a long time, but I never expected to actually use it today.
"Ah Wan, let me hook it!"
Fu Liang was eager to try, but Fu Wan didn't care. Besides, the tuna looked quite big, and she was afraid that she would have to use a lot of strength.
Wouldn't it be better if someone did the hard labor?
Fu Liang didn't see himself as a laborer. Watching the large tuna being pulled out of the water by the fishing line, he couldn't help but excitedly grip the large fishhook in his hand.
May the Goddess Mazu bless this fish!
This one fish is enough to brag about throughout the whole town!!
Despite his excitement, Fu Liang didn't hold back at all when he made his move. He aimed the sharp fishhook at the tuna's gills and hooked it in, then gripped the hook tightly, gritted his teeth, and pulled the tuna up.
Once the large fish was on the deck, everyone gathered around to admire this bluefin tuna, truly deserving of its reputation as a noble among tuna. It had a spindle-shaped body with a sleek, streamlined form. Its back was deep blue, while its sides and belly were silvery-white.
This tuna is about 1.6 meters long and weighs about 100 kilograms.
This size is considered small even among bluefin tuna. Keep in mind that the largest bluefin tuna on record weighed 679 kilograms.
However, bluefin tuna are mainly distributed in the western and eastern Atlantic Ocean, as well as the Mediterranean and Black Sea. They shouldn't be in the waters near Fu Wan's location, but it's possible they migrated there with the currents. Fu Wan didn't bother thinking about it too much; her eyes were fixed on the huge fish in front of her.
Look at this clean, white fish meat, look at this smooth, slippery fish body.
That's a huge sum of money!
Everyone gathered around the bluefin tuna that had already passed away, and Boss Fu took out a knife from the side to bleed the tuna.
Bleeding the tuna in time keeps the meat fresh and prevents it from spoiling. If it is not bled, the tuna meat will become tough and difficult to eat.
That would be a real waste.
Fu Ming slowly woke up after the tuna had been bled, and came out of the cabin yawning.
When the results came out, they found that their boat was completely empty, while Fu Wan and her group's boat next to them was bustling with activity.
"What are you doing... Holy crap!"
Fu Ming was wondering what Fu Liang and Ye Lin had gone to do, whether they had fallen into the sea. He stood on tiptoe and saw a group of people surrounding a huge thing. When he saw the huge thing on the deck, he instantly sobered up.
Is this really not a dream?
Fu Ming pinched his thigh hard, and the next second he winced in pain.
If it hurts this much, then it's definitely real!
Someone tell him what happened! What is that big thing on the deck?!
Good heavens, he just took a nap, and he missed something again!
The people on the boat next to them had finished admiring the tuna, and Boss Fu was preparing to carry it to the cold storage and keep it in ice.
"Father, wait!"
A furious shout came from the boat next to him. Boss Fu was still wondering which brat was asking for trouble when he saw his son jump over from the boat next to him with straw mat marks all over his face.
Before Boss Fu could say anything, Fu Ming trotted over with a fawning expression.
"Father, let me do it. How can I trouble you with something so heavy? This kind of thing is fine with me, the younger generation!"
He's never touched a bluefin tuna before, so he'd better get a good feel for it today.
Boss Fu glanced at him sideways, his eyes filled with disdain: "This fish isn't small, are you sure you can handle it?"
"How can a man say he can't!"
Fu Ming reluctantly accepted the tuna; hey, this thing was indeed quite heavy. Not wanting to let it drag on the ground, he gritted his teeth and hoisted it onto his shoulder.
Damn, this definitely weighs more than 100 pounds!
The moment Fu Ming lifted the fish and stood up straight, it's no exaggeration to say that he felt like his great-grandmother was waving at him.
Fu Wan watched her older brother struggling and laughed until her stomach hurt. Fu Liang couldn't bear to see it and rushed over to help.
He will protect his brother's dignity!
However, Ah Ming still needs to eat more abalone and oysters, since he's probably not fully recovered from his injury!
With the bluefin tuna as an example, not only Ye Lin was eager to try his hand at fishing, but even Boss Fu took the fishing rod from Fu Wan's hand.
"Good girl, let your dad have some fun. Forget about a tuna, just getting a decent grouper would make me laugh in my dreams."
Fu Ming also shared this dream. This guy was very cunning; he took all the bait that Fu Wan had prepared beforehand, intending to use it to catch a big fish and bring it back to the village to show off.
So now the two boats were completely connected. Several grown men took fishing rods and baited them, while Fu Wan and Ye Xiaocui watched from the side, ready to put the fish in the landing net when they came!
