Chapter 807 The Gains from This Voyage



Qin Mingzhu has always been a sensible child. After Fu Wan comforted her for a few words, she composed herself, stood up, and took Fu Ling's hand to go inside to prepare for dinner.

Fu Ling held her best friend's hand tightly, whispering words of comfort, but in her heart she was thinking that if that bad guy dared to come again tomorrow, she would definitely teach him a lesson!

Seeing the child's red eyes, Ye Xiaocui sighed quietly. Alas, they are all unfortunate children.

Fu Ming and Fu Laoda didn't notice this. They had just returned from Fu San's place and were covered in the smell of fish. As soon as they got back, they took their clothes to the backyard to take a shower, otherwise the fishy smell would be too strong and make everyone lose their appetite.

The people who had finally gone to sea had all returned. Ye Xiaocui hurriedly invited everyone to sit down and eat. She had heard from Fu Liang that they had encountered pirates again. Although she knew that her husband and children were not to be trifled with, Ye Xiaocui still led Fu Ling and the others to kneel in front of the Mazu statue in the main house and kowtow three times.

She was originally going to the dock to wait for Fu Wan and the others to return, but when she went out, she ran into Zhao Dong bringing the police to her door. This commotion lasted for several hours.

Fortunately, his family members returned safely, and the haul from the sea was quite good. Looking at the various seafood and fish products on the table, as well as the family's precious eggs, radishes, and preserved wild rabbit, Su Jianshe also deeply realized how wrong he had been before.

He had always thought that Fu Wan's family had prepared a special meal for him and Su Ran, but now that he thought about it carefully, whether this was their usual standard or they had made it on purpose, he shouldn't look down on them.

Thinking this, he mustered up his courage and solemnly stood up to apologize to Boss Fu, Ye Xiaocui, and their group.

"Uncles and aunts, and all the brothers and sisters, I was narrow-minded before and made a lot of mistakes. Please forgive me!"

After saying that, he bowed deeply to Boss Fu and the others. Boss Fu and Ye Jianguo were a little surprised. They were old and had sharp eyes. They had noticed from the beginning that this Comrade Da Su did not think much of them.

They didn't say anything, because it was normal; they encountered many people like this when they went to the town or county to buy and sell things.

But there are very few people who would go out of their way to apologize like Su Jianshe did.

Ye Xiaocui was even more frightened when she saw this. "Oh dear, children, why are you all acting so strangely today? Oh, why are you bowing? Hurry up and sit down and eat, or the food will get cold!"

After Ye Xiaocui finished speaking, Fu Ming pressed Su Jianshe back onto the stool. Su Jianshe didn't know if this counted as a successful apology, so he could only look to Su Ran for help.

Su Ran pretended not to see his gaze, turned around and pulled Fu Wan to sit down beside her.

"What are you looking at? Eat!"

Fu Ming placed a bottle of liquor in front of Su Jianshe, saying, "Don't think that an apology is enough. Da Linzi and I were scared half to death back then."

"You're not leaving until you finish this bottle!"

"Yes, you're not leaving!"

Ye Lin also came over, and the two of them flanked Su Jianshe. Su Jianshe was not so nervous at this time. As a member of the TV station, he usually had a lot of social engagements.

He can handle drinking!

Fu Ming has a low alcohol tolerance, but Ye Lin and Li Jun have a good one.

Especially Li Jun, whose grandmother knew how to brew wine. When he was about the same age as Fu Ling, he would secretly lead his younger siblings to hide next to the wine vat and scoop wine to drink when no one was around.

Ye Lin had been hunting in the mountains with Ye Jianguo since he was a child. In the dead of winter, a sip of liquor would warm him up instantly!

They hadn't had a proper meal on the boat, but now that there was fish and shrimp, and most importantly, white rice and steamed buns, Fu Wan and the others ate to their hearts' content.

After the meal, Su Ran didn't mention going back that night anymore, because Su Jianshe had been plied with alcohol by Fu Ming and the others!

There are always people better than you, and there's always something beyond your understanding. No matter how good Su Jianshe's alcohol tolerance was, he couldn't beat Ye Lin and Li Jun. Fu Ming was also completely drunk, and in the end, Ye Lin had to help him back to the new house.

There were too many people at night, and there wasn't enough room to sleep in the old house, so Fu Wan pulled Su Ran to sleep in the new house with her. Before leaving, Fu Laoda suddenly remembered that the purchase order was still in his pocket, so he hurriedly took it out and handed it to Fu Wan.

"Ah Wan, look, this is the list of seafood we caught on this voyage."

Fu Wan took it and opened it. The previous acquisition list was densely written, but today it was not only densely written, but also two or three pages long.

"Father, so much?"

Upon hearing this, Boss Fu nodded repeatedly. He glanced at Ye Xiaocui, who wasn't staring at him, and then quietly poured some more baijiu into his glass.

Hey, it's not easy to have a lot of people to drink with, so he should have a couple more sips!

Fu Wan unfolded the acquisition list and started looking at it from the beginning. The first list was naturally full of items.

Because there was nowhere to put the sailfish at the time, they were simply covered with ice and cloth and placed on the deck. Therefore, the sailfish were weighed first and their names were listed in the first column.

There are several different sizes of sailfish, and the degree of bleeding varies, which results in different colors of the sailfish meat.

There were three relatively fresh sailfish with snow-white and tender flesh, weighing a total of 128.2 jin (approximately 64.6 catties). Fu San calculated it at 1.2 yuan per jin, for a total of 153.8 yuan.

Most of the sailfish were not very fresh and had loose flesh. There were eight such sailfish in total, weighing 283.9 jin (approximately 141.6 kg), at a price of 0.8 yuan per jin, for a total of 227 yuan.

The sailfish was an unexpected bonus. Fu Wan had thought that a hundred or two hundred yuan would be quite good, but she didn't expect that it would actually be worth more than three hundred yuan.

In other words, they almost made back their fuel and labor costs for this trip just from the sailfish alone.

Fu Wan continued looking down, and below the sailfish were the seafood they had actually caught.

Five hundred and eighty-three catties of spotted mackerel, priced at five mao per catty, totaling two hundred and ninety-one yuan and fifty cents; a total of one hundred and twenty-six catties of spotted mackerel, priced at two yuan and thirty cents per catty, totaling two hundred and ninety yuan.

320 catties of axehead fish, priced at 0.85 yuan each, totaling 272 yuan; 183 catties of mantis shrimp, priced at 2.2 yuan each, totaling 402.6 yuan.

Ninety-eight catties of mantis shrimp, priced at 1.8 yuan each; one hundred and ninety-eight catties of mantis shrimp, priced at 1.5 yuan each; the total price for these two types of shrimp is 495 yuan.

In addition, there are many other fish that are relatively small in weight.

Fish like yellowback snapper and red snapper are priced at around 1.8 yuan per jin. There are also quite a few groupers, which are 2 yuan per jin for live ones and 1.6 yuan per jin for dead ones.

There were also some rockfish used for making soup and other miscellaneous fish. The total weight of these fish was quite considerable, amounting to more than 390 jin (approximately 145 kg).

However, because there are so many types, they were all written out separately by Fu San.

As she wrote, one list wasn't enough, so Fu Wan flipped to the second page, where the final total was clearly written: 2,636 yuan.

The reason there are no cents is probably because Fu San deliberately erased them.

Moreover, it is quite obvious that the price of fish has increased significantly overall.

"By the way, what's the price of that giant grouper?"

Boss Fu scratched his head and thought for a while before he remembered.

"It seems to weigh over 180 jin. The third brother said he has to sell it to a big boss, and then he'll give us the money after he makes a price!"
