Eager to have a good experience, Su Ran stepped forward and followed Ye Lin and the others to untie the net.
The moment the thick hemp rope was pulled out, everyone instinctively held their breath.
With a splash, the fish spilled all over the deck.
"Wow, these fish are all pretty big!"
Su Ran exclaimed in surprise, then asked with shining eyes, "Aren't so many big fish very valuable?"
"this……"
Ye Lin was indeed asked the question, and Li Jun and Fang Min around him looked at each other, unable to say for a long time whether the fish were worth anything.
There was no other way; Fang Min and Li Jun were both self-taught fishermen, while Fu Qing, the only one from a fisherman's background, was smiling as he dragged over a fish basket and began sorting through the fish.
Big fish, haha, so many big fish!
What are you doing?
Fu Wan's voice came from not far away. She had just switched shifts with Boss Fu and saw everyone gathered together as if they were talking about something, which she found a little strange.
"Ah Wan, you've come at the right time! Come and see what you think of this net of fish!"
Ye Lin's eyes lit up, and as if he had found a savior, he pulled Fu Wan over.
Good heavens, there are so many kinds of sea fish, he only recognizes a small portion of them, and there are many large fish in this net that he doesn't recognize.
"Whoa, a cannonball fish!"
Fu Wan glanced at the fish on the deck and immediately exclaimed in surprise.
Besides the triggerfish, there are also many marlin, threadfin bream, and other miscellaneous fish such as rockfish.
There were even several large, eye-catching yellow flowers!
No wonder Ye Lin introduced these fish to everyone from somewhere. This net had all kinds of fish, and it was full of them, and almost all of them were valuable.
Among them, the most eye-catching were the giant cannonball fish. In just a few minutes, Fu Qing had already nimbly brought out all the cannonball fish. The largest one was more than a meter long and weighed at least fifty kilograms.
"Wow, Wan, this fish looks just like a tuna!"
Ye Lin couldn't remember if he had ever seen a triggerfish before, but the shape of this triggerfish was really comparable to the tuna he had caught before.
"Haha, the triggerfish is also called the smokefish, and it can be considered a type of tuna, so it's not surprising that it looks like a tuna."
"So, is the yellowfin tuna more valuable?"
Ye Lin asked impatiently, and Fu Wan nodded affirmatively, "Pretty much, the bigger the fish, the tastier it is. This biggest one should sell for several tens of yuan!"
"What?! A few dozen yuan?!"
Su Jianshe was shocked. His salary was only thirty-eight yuan and fifty cents, and this fish was actually worth a month's salary for him?!
No, it might even be more than his salary, after all, eighty or ninety is still a few tens of yuan!
Goodness, fishermen make money like this!
Su Jianshe, who had always been proud of his secure job, was starting to have doubts about his life. Su Ran, however, didn't think so much. She asked Fang Min for a pair of gloves, put on a set of clothes that were easy to clean, and then moved a small stool to sit next to Fu Qing, imitating her as she picked out the fish.
Yesterday, they were so engrossed in shooting footage that they didn't do much work at all. But Su Ran is not afraid of hardship, and soon she was working hard with Fu Qing, while constantly teasing Fu Qing with words.
To prevent Su Ran from getting a headache from the sea breeze, Ye Xiaocui gave her a headscarf to wrap her head before she boarded the boat, making her look like a fisherman. Su Jianshe could hardly believe that this was his pampered younger sister.
As Fu Wan watched the busy crowd, she naturally noticed Su Jianshe, who was deep in thought. A slight smile appeared on her lips. The sea had such charm. In fact, in terms of interpersonal skills, Su Jianshe was far inferior to Su Ran.
If Su Ran hadn't come to visit in person, Fu Wan wouldn't have been so impatient as to bring Su Jianshe onto the ship.
"Brother, what are you daydreaming about? Come and help with the work!"
Su Ran had been busy for half a day and finally filled half a basket with fish. She was feeling very accomplished when she turned around and saw Su Jianshe staring blankly at her.
Startled by the shout, Su Jianshe looked up and frowned as he saw the deck full of fish.
As a result, Su Ran caught him doing this again.
She immediately rolled her eyes. Damn it, this city person's bad habits have kicked in again.
"Su Jianshe, you'd better come and get to work right now, or when we get back I'll tell Grandpa you're just eating for free on the ship and not doing any work!"
Hmph, her grandfather is a teacher, and he has a lot of demands on his grandchildren. Just thinking about the feather duster at home, Su Jianshe couldn't help but shudder.
He's a father now, he can't be beaten with a feather duster anymore.
"They're here! They're here!"
Su Jianshe's cowardly appearance immediately made everyone laugh. These two city folks were quite amusing. Picking fish was boring, but with some excitement to watch, time passed faster.
Fu Wan smiled, but instead of joining the line of people picking out fish, she picked up her binoculars and observed the sea again.
The sea was calm and serene, and the ship was nowhere to be seen.
Could it be that I was just nervous?
Fu Wan suppressed her doubts, when suddenly she felt something under her foot. She moved her foot and saw that it was a mantis shrimp!
After winter came, there were fewer mantis shrimps. She picked up the mantis shrimp, which was as long as her palm. It had a clear "king" character on its lower abdomen and a red and yellow horizontal line.
There's even ointment!
"Quickly, pick out the mantis shrimp and put them in the fish basket. We'll keep them in water later."
The price of mantis shrimp this season is twice as high as in the peak season. She just glanced at them and estimated that she could pick out at least three baskets of mantis shrimp.
"Remember, don't pick any that are smaller than your little finger, and don't pick any that have yellow seeds all over their bellies. Pick them all out and throw them back into the sea later!"
After Fu Wan gave her instructions, Ye Lin, Fang Min, and the others nodded repeatedly.
Su Jianshe was completely baffled. He had been picking mantis shrimp and had finally managed to pick out two handfuls, only to be told by Fu Wan that there were so many rules.
He immediately felt terrible, and even felt that Fu Wan was targeting him!
"Comrade Xiao Fu, what kind of logic is that?"
Fu Wan sensed the displeasure in Su Jianshe's tone and immediately rolled her eyes.
See? She knew that Da Su was no match for Xiao Su.
However, she wouldn't mind giving him a lesson.
"The smaller ones have no meat, so it's a waste to take them back. The ones with larvae in their abdomens are female shrimp that are about to lay eggs. So we have to put them back in order to ensure that we can catch them again in the future."
She smiled at Su Jianshe and said, "Comrade Su is quite well-educated, so he should understand the meaning of sustainable development, right?"
Sustainable development?
Su Jianshe found it hard to believe that these words came from a fisherman.
He immediately felt ashamed and quickly apologized.
"I'm sorry, Comrade Xiao Fu, I misunderstood."
He shook his head, thinking that he must have gotten seasick yesterday and vomited his brain into the sea. How could Fu Wan be deliberately trying to make things difficult for him?
As the sun grew stronger, Fu Wan hurriedly found an empty fish basket, put on gloves, and began sorting the fish from the pile of Shi Jiu Gong.
These fish are very poisonous, but they make a really delicious soup. Fu Wan had just picked out two when suddenly, there were a few banging sounds coming from under the boat.
