After swimming for more than half an hour, Fu Wan finally ran out of energy. Seeing this, Fu Shi hurriedly took the fishing rod. Although it was the first time he had ever touched a lure fishing rod, he had already mastered the technique of using it when Fu Wan used it.
"Oh, it's so powerful!"
Fu Shi exclaimed in surprise. It was the first time he had ever handled such a strong fish. He hadn’t realized it when he was watching from the side, but after taking the fish, he realized that Fu Wan had also had a hard time, managing to keep it up for more than half an hour!
After spending more than half an hour playing with the fish, Fu Shi resigned himself to passing the fishing rod to Ye Lin. After Ye Lin's final half hour of effort, the fish finally surfaced.
"Golden spear, it really is the Bluefin Golden Spear!"
Fu Shi jumped up excitedly, immediately raising his iron hook and looking for an opportunity to strike.
"My goodness, this fish must weigh at least 200 pounds!"
"Who knows? I'll bring a hook too, otherwise we can't pull it up with just one hook!"
After Fu Wan finished speaking, she also went to find a large iron hook. Just then, Boss Fu, who was trawling ahead, heard Fu Shi's shout. Seeing that there were no reefs ahead, he set the course and went up to the deck to check the situation.
Seeing that Fu Wan and Fu Shi were both carrying large iron hooks, Boss Fu looked into the sea and was so shocked that he almost thought he was dreaming.
May Goddess Mazu bless us, for we have actually obtained such a large bluefin golden spear!
"Ah Wan, give me the hook!"
"Okay!"
Upon seeing that it was Boss Fu, Fu Wan immediately handed over the iron hook with peace of mind. The two big men took action, one hooking the head and the other hooking the tail.
"One, two, three, come up!"
After three shouts, the bluefin lance was pulled onto the deck.
"Oh dear, I'm exhausted!"
Ye Lin slumped onto the deck, letting the sweat drip down his forehead.
I'm numb, completely numb.
He can't even lift his arms now, and his back is aching.
However, after seeing the tuna that was even taller than him, Ye Lin felt that it was all worth it.
The tuna didn't thrash around much after it was brought aboard, so Boss Fu found a knife and, together with Fu Wan, bled the tuna.
While he was fishing, he looked at Ye Lin and laughed, "You've got some skills, kid. You managed to catch such a big tuna, and it's even a bluefin!"
"What are you saying, Uncle? I wasn't that lucky. It was Wan who caught it by using the head of that swallowtail starfish. Shi and I just put in some effort!"
After saying that, he gave Fu Wan a thumbs up.
"Ah Wan, I've learned something new! If I have the chance next time, I'll definitely try using grouper heads!"
"There's definitely a chance. Why don't you offer up the red grouper you just caught and give it a try!"
Fu Wan joked that Boss Fu had initially thought it was Ye Lin who had caught the fish, but it turned out to be his own daughter. He was even more surprised when he saw the fishing rod in Fu Shi's hand.
He knew it! This fishing rod looked familiar to him. Wasn't it the lure fishing rod that Xiaobai had given him before?
Oh dear, this kid is so clueless. Why didn't you give him a couple?
Boss Fu shook his head. Hmph, still too young. He doesn't even know how to curry favor with his future father-in-law!
After bleeding the tuna, Boss Fu and his men carried it into the cold storage.
And believe it or not, if this tuna were any fatter, it wouldn't even fit through the door of the cold storage!
It was at this moment that Boss Fu discovered the yellowfin tuna that Ye Lin had caught in the cold storage. He couldn't help but sigh in his heart, "The younger generation is surpassing the older generation. Ye Lin, this fisherman who only started out halfway through his career, is doing quite well in sea transport!"
With two tuna by his side, Boss Fu wasn't worried about losing money on this voyage.
Although Fu Wan will definitely get the lion's share of the profits from this voyage, Fu Laoda will also get a considerable amount. Most importantly, his family has the best shipping in the whole village.
When we get back to the dock, won't those people stare at us in disbelief?!
After catching the bluefin tuna, Fu Wan was quite satisfied. She put away her fishing rod, then took off her gloves, washed her hands, and went back to her cabin to sleep.
Perhaps because she had exerted a lot of effort in handling the fish, Fu Wan fell asleep almost immediately. When she opened her eyes again, it was already slightly bright outside.
Fu Wan put on her clothes and went out. As soon as she opened the door, she smelled the aroma of porridge.
She followed the aroma and was surprised to find that Fang Min was cooking porridge in a stainless steel pot.
"Ah Wan, you're awake?"
"Yes, where's the big guy?"
"Oh, Ye Lin and Fu Shi are still sleeping, and Uncle is sailing the boat. I might as well come with A Qing to make some breakfast."
The rice had been soaked overnight, so it cooked quickly. Fu Qing helped out and, seeing that the porridge was almost done, sprinkled some scallions on top.
Fu Wan was also surprised to see this, "Who brought these scallions up?"
That's really impressive; they actually thought of bringing this thing.
Fu Qing was somewhat smug upon hearing this, and turned around to pull out a plate of scallions from under the table.
"Haha, it's my little green dog, Awan, look, isn't it amazing?"
"Amazing, absolutely amazing!"
Fu Wan answered with a smile, and Fang Min also told the story of how the pot of scallions came about. Fu Qing had grown them using a discarded water ladle, and before going to sea, fearing that Wang Xiuer would forget to water them, he simply brought them on the boat himself.
As soon as she finished speaking, she felt the boat beneath her suddenly sway. Looking around, Fu Wan realized that Boss Fu had actually sailed the boat to Coconut Island.
Looking further ahead, two more ships were slowly approaching, clearly indicating that Boss Fu had arranged for them to rest here.
"Oh my, where's that congee smell coming from? It's making me hungry!"
Fu Laoda rubbed his hands as he came out of the cockpit. He wasn't surprised to see Fu Wan and the others. He knew that Fu Shi and Ye Lin were definitely still asleep!
They cast their net around 2 a.m. last night. Fu Shi and Ye Lin didn't want to wake them, so they simply cleaned the net of fish themselves.
Not only that, after Fu Wan went to sleep, Boss Fu switched places with Ye Lin and went fishing with Fu Shi. The two of them even had a competition, and in addition to some grouper and sea bass, they also caught four tuna.
In addition to the three yellowfin tuna, there was also a bluefin tuna weighing about 100 pounds.
It was because they caught a tuna that Fu Shi and Ye Lin were so excited that they couldn't sleep for half a day. After sorting through the trawl net's catch, the two of them went to take a nap. Around 5 a.m., Boss Fu started trawl netting again, and this time Fu Qing and Fang Min got up to sort through the catch.
Because there were few people, the two of them quickly picked through the food without washing it. Fu Qing's stomach was growling from the busyness, so Fang Min simply lit some coal and used a stainless steel pot to boil water and cook porridge.
Upon hearing this, Fu Wan suddenly realized that she didn't have enough boatmen on her boat and needed to arrange for two more people to board.
The congee smelled so good that Fu Shi and Ye Lin also smelled it. Everyone quickly rinsed the fish and then carried a large pot of congee off the boat.
Meanwhile, Fu Ming and Fu Liang set up a stove and started a fire on the island. Seeing Fu Wan and the others come down, Fu Ming hurriedly greeted them.
"Ah Wan, come over here quickly. I've prepared half a basket of shrimp; just have some for breakfast!"
