"That's a great white shark?!"
Grandpa Fu muttered to himself with a stern face. When Xue Qing's boat got closer, the people on the dock could see it clearly.
That was indeed a great white shark.
Damn it, these outsiders are catching sharks?!
Although China listed the great white shark as a Class II protected animal in 2015, the villagers in the Fujia Village area had already reached a consensus in the 1950s.
We will never catch intelligent animals like sharks, dolphins, and whales.
These intelligent creatures of the sea are not only unpalatable, but they are also extremely vengeful, especially sharks. If a group of sharks sets its sights on someone, they will attack indiscriminately, and other fishermen who go out to sea are likely to suffer undeserved disasters.
Unexpectedly, Xue Qing's ship caught a full five great white sharks on its first voyage.
Oh no, there were six in total. To make matters worse, there was a baby great white shark hanging to one side, its blood dripping into the seawater, instantly turning the blue seawater bright red.
"What a terrible thing!"
The villagers were talking about it. It's a basic principle for fishermen to avoid catching small fish, and this little white shark looked like it hadn't been born long, yet they still managed to catch it.
"Mr. Xue, this is unethical! You can't catch that great white shark, you can't catch it!"
When Grandpa Fu saw Xue Qing and the others disembarking, he went up to them and tried to persuade them to stop.
He had seen all sorts of things at sea in his life, and he knew better than anyone how vengeful sharks could be.
"Can't arrest him? Why can't you arrest him?"
Xue Qing's nonchalant attitude was completely different from when he was fishing with the fishing team. It was as if he had revealed his true colors.
"Mr. Xue, this shark fin is very delicious. Although shark meat is not tasty, giving it to the villagers is what you Chinese call friendly mutual assistance!"
Kujiro, who was a head shorter than Xue Qing, walked out from behind Xue Qing. This little Japanese man had a wicked look in his eyes.
Not catching sharks? The meat's practically delivered to their doorstep, and these people still won't eat it?
The Chinese are poor and hypocritical; they are all fake.
"We don't want to!"
Grandpa Fu turned his face away, not wanting to see the disgusting face of that islander.
He fought alongside guerrillas when he was young, and if he hadn't been injured and his mother hadn't insisted that he go home, he wouldn't have stayed in Fujia Village his whole life.
Now, if he saw the islanders who had invaded his territory back then, he was afraid he wouldn't be able to control himself and would punch them.
Xue Qing was a trained man after all, and he could tell at a glance that Master Fu disliked Jiu Jing.
"Sir, if you don't want it, someone else will. There's no law against fishing for great white sharks now. Our boat is already out at sea; we can't just be out there sightseeing, can we?"
Without waiting for Grandpa Fu's reply, he pushed Grandpa Fu aside and walked towards Fu Wan's boat.
"Comrade Fu Wan, it seems your family didn't have a great haul today? Why don't you come aboard my boat? I definitely won't waste your excellent diving skills!"
Fu Wan glanced at him. "Aren't you afraid of retribution for fishing for great white sharks?"
Xue Qing shrugged, saying nonchalantly, "What's there to be afraid of? I'm right here, let them come and get their comeuppance!"
Fu Wan was disgusted by his shameless attitude. Just then, Fu San and Fu Laoda walked over, preparing to move the moonfish to their own basement.
"I'm inviting you to join in good faith, it's not like I won't pay you."
"Your boat is just wasting fuel going out there; you'll only catch some small fish and shrimp!"
He had never seen Fu Wan's family's harvest, so he naturally assumed that their ship had no cargo today.
Hearing this, Fu Gou Dan chuckled and leaned over, opening his mouth, which reeked of alcohol.
"Who said Old Master Fu's family doesn't have any fish? They have so many small yellow croakers and a coconut crab that big. You...you young man, do you have bad eyesight?"
Xue Qing was disgusted by the smell of alcohol and bad breath coming from Fu Gou Dan's mouth, and took several steps back. However, he was concerned about his own face and could not lose his temper.
"Brother, let's carry that fish out!"
Fu San wasn't afraid of trouble, and Fu Laoda was even less afraid. Fishing was perfectly legitimate for their own family. The group then went into the cabin, moved away the piles of ice, and then appeared before everyone carrying the moonfish that weighed over 100 pounds.
"Oh, Gouwa, your fish is delicious!"
Grandpa Fu was pushed aside by Xue Qing, and he almost fell down if Fu Ming hadn't supported him.
He had been complaining about his weak body, unable to fight back directly, but when he saw the moonfish that Boss Fu and the others were carrying out, he instantly forgot about it.
What kind of fish is this?
Several villagers gathered around, and those who had never seen this fish before couldn't help but ask questions.
Kujiro was originally standing aside watching the fun, but after looking at Fu Wan for a while, he was surprised to find that the person Xue Qing said was very good at diving was actually a frail little girl.
Seeing the moonfish that had been carried out, he couldn't stay calm anymore.
In their country, there's a saying that catching a moonfish brings good luck. He wants to bring this moonfish back as a good omen for this voyage!
With this fish, his people will surely bless him to find what his ancestors left behind and return home safely!
"I'll buy this fish!"
Kujiro stepped forward and stopped Fu San, who was heading towards his own tricycle.
Fu San and Fu Laoda were both stunned. Fu Wan directly refused, "Not for sale!"
Xue Qing didn't understand why Jiu Jingxiong wanted this big fish, but now that Fu Wan refused, his rebellious streak kicked in.
Not selling? Then I'm determined to buy it!
"Comrade Fu Wan, you're going to sell them anyway, so why not sell them to us? That way you won't have to go through all that trouble."
Xue Qing acted as if he was thinking of Fu Wan's best interests, but Fu Wan only said one sentence: "Not for sale!"
Fu Laoda listens to his daughter; he also doesn't like dealing with Xue Qing and his group.
"Boss Xue, your ship is so powerful, you might catch a big fish on your next voyage. Why keep focusing on this one?"
Kujiro's Chinese wasn't very good, and he only understood a little of what he was saying.
However, he understood that these Chinese people meant they wouldn't sell to him, and he was starting to get anxious.
"Sir Xue, if we don't buy this fish, I'm withdrawing my investment!"
He owned half of the ship, and Xue Qing hated being threatened, so his face darkened.
They both like to make things difficult for him, don't they?
"If you don't sell this fish to me, you won't find another buyer in town!"
Fu San laughed and said, "Mr. Xue, business people naturally have their own advantages. In fact, we are already planning to auction this fish, and we welcome Mr. Xue to come and bid!"
When Fu Wan heard Fu San say this, she guessed that her third uncle had another idea.
When Xue Qing heard Fu San say this, Fu Laoda and Fu Wan and the others did not stop him, and he was in a great mood afterward.
Let them auction it off, anyway, Kujiro has plenty of money!
Kujiro only half understood what he was hearing, but he knew that he had a chance to buy the moonfish.
Then, in high spirits, he said, "Sang Xue, have the shark killed. Send some shark fin to Miss Fu as a token of our goodwill!"
