The little killer whale left with its pod, and a lot of time was wasted in treating them.
More than an hour passed, and Zheng Gan and Lin Hao had almost rested enough, so they notified the boat to continue sailing. They had not cast a single net yet today, and they could not do business that would lose money.
"Brother, is the market bad today?" Lin Hao looked at Zheng Gan with a frown and asked curiously.
Zheng Gan nodded, looking somewhat worried. "I don't know if it's because there are too many people fishing, but all the fish in this area have disappeared without a trace. Anyway, I haven't found a suitable place yet."
"Isn't that normal? Our line of work, to put it bluntly, relies entirely on luck. No one can guarantee a big catch every time they cast a net. Otherwise, the sea would have been depleted of fish long ago."
What Lin Hao said was correct, and Zheng Gan also understood this. If he was an ordinary fisherman, he would not have such a big worry, but he was a fisherman with a cheat. If he came out empty-handed this time, it would be really embarrassing.
"It's okay, let's have lunch first. After we finish eating, we'll see what happens."
We didn't go fishing today, so the food we ate was what we brought with us. Jia Teng fried three vegetarian dishes and a portion of pork ribs, and had them with rice. This was a simple lunch.
Zheng Gan and Lin Hao were tired after working for a long time and were already very hungry. They were eating voraciously at this moment.
Suddenly, Zheng Gan stood up with his eyes wide open.
"What's wrong?" Everyone was puzzled when they saw his reaction.
"Don't eat yet, let's go get another net." After being depressed for a long time, Zheng Gan finally smiled.
"Ah?" Wang Yunzhou, Jia Gui and the other three were all confused. Why did they have to log off the internet while they were eating? What was going on?
However, Zheng Gan really had no way to explain this, so he simply said nothing and kept urging everyone to get ready, as time was running out.
Just when he was eating, he glanced at the map casually. Suddenly, a large group of red dots swam quickly towards them, and there were several green dots around the red dots, forming a large encirclement, constantly chasing and intercepting these red dots, obviously driving the red dots to their side.
When everyone saw Zheng Gan said this, there was nothing they could do. Since he was the boss, they could only put down their bowls and chopsticks, quickly return to their posts, and be on standby at all times.
"Here we go! Start casting the nets." Seeing that the red dots had all reached the designated area, Zheng Gan shouted, and the fishing net instantly entered the sea, and the boat also headed forward at this time.
After doing all this, I can finally breathe a sigh of relief. The rest depends on the cooperation of Wang Yunzhou and Zheng Gan.
"What on earth is going on, brother?" Lin Hao was also very curious about what had happened just now.
Zheng Gan didn't say anything, but pointed at the sea.
"Huh?" Lin Hao looked in the direction and was stunned. He actually saw the killer whale again.
"See? The killer whales are actively driving the fish to our side to thank us." Zheng Gan exclaimed. When he saw the green dots on the map, he had some guesses. After he cast the net, he would be able to see the killer whales.
This can be considered as completing the NPC's task, and the reward is delivered to your door.
"The killer whale repays the favor, boss. I really have nothing to say now. Good people will be rewarded, which is a perfect embodiment of you." Jia Gui admired him even more when he learned about this.
Through this incident, they also knew that their boss Zheng Gan would definitely not treat them unfairly.
With the help of the killer whale group, most of the surrounding fish were driven into the net, and only a few smart fish that had grown brains escaped.
"It's almost done, let's get ready and start pulling up the net!" It used to take two or three hours to wait, but now in less than an hour, the net is already saturated, all thanks to the killer whales.
Wang Yunzhou in the cockpit looked at the scene in amazement. After many years of sailing experience, it was the first time he saw killer whales helping humans fish. Seven or eight large killer whales formed a large encirclement. What an incredible sight.
This also strengthened his determination. The time, place and people were all on Zheng Gan's side, so he surrendered.
The net bag was quickly pulled up, and it was bulging, indicating that there must be a lot of seafood inside. Zheng Gan happily pulled the rope, and immediately a huge amount of seafood fell onto the deck.
"Hahaha, it's a blackhead fish!" Everyone laughed happily when they saw the fish on the deck.
Zheng Gan was also laughing at this time. The entire net bag could hold more than one ton of cargo. There were about 1,600 to 1,700 kilograms of blackhead fish on the deck, and the rest were some rotten fish and shrimp.
Blackhead fish is black grouper, which we often call pig-mouth fish. It is rich in protein, 18 kinds of amino acids, and also contains calcium, phosphorus, iron and various vitamins essential to the human body. It is very suitable for people who are weak, malnourished and anemic.
It is a warm-water bottom fish that often lives in offshore rocky reef areas. The fact that it can be caught in the net is all thanks to the "boys".
Wild blackhead fish are very expensive. At present, the market price is 70 to 80 yuan per catty. In other words, according to conservative estimates, this net can be sold for about 130,000 yuan.
"Let's hurry up and pick them out and put them in the live tank. This kind of fish doesn't live very long, and the price will drop a lot if it dies." Zheng Gan greeted everyone and started to get busy.
Everyone was very happy, especially Jia Gui and the other two. Such a huge harvest meant that they could get bonuses again this time.
After the little killer whale said hello to Zheng Gan, it left with the group of killer whales. However, it kept looking back before leaving. This made Zheng Gan understand that they should continue to wait here. It seems that the reward for today's mission may not be just this net.
Thanks to everyone's efforts, the 1,600 to 1,700 kilograms of blackhead fish were quickly sorted. Although it was tiring, everyone had a smile on their face.
"Let's rest here for a while, Uncle Wang. Maybe the killer whales will send us another net." Zheng Gan said with a smile.
Wang Yunzhou agreed verbally, but he actually didn't quite believe it in his heart. It was good enough for this situation to happen once, so how could he be greedy and want it to happen again? However, he didn't object at all. Even if there was no other harvest for a while, with this net of blackhead fish, this trip to the sea could be considered a great victory.
With nothing to do, Zheng Gan found some fresher ones from the rotten fish and shrimps and asked Jia Teng to blanch them. He hadn't eaten well during the previous meal, and now he felt a little hungry, so he got some fresh rotten fish and shrimps as afternoon tea.
