When Zheng Gan woke up the next morning, he found that the wind outside was indeed much weaker and the rain had stopped, so it should be possible to go out to sea.
But just in case, he decided to wait until tomorrow.
"Sister Xin, are you going to the island to catch seafood today?" Zheng Gan asked while having breakfast.
Qiao Xin shook her head. "I won't go. There must be a lot of people in the beach area today. I'd better go over there and watch."
There will be a lot of goods after a typhoon. People who often go to the beach know this, so if nothing unexpected happens, there should be quite a few people coming to the beach today.
"Okay, thank you for your hard work." Although Zheng Gan didn't really want his wife to go out and work hard, he also respected her idea.
As soon as they finished breakfast, Lin Hao and Jiang Feng came over fully armed.
"Brother, it's just past eight o'clock now, and the tide won't go out until two in the afternoon. Are you two crazy?" Zheng Gan was speechless.
Lin Hao scratched his head, blushing slightly. He was indeed a little anxious, but he still said with a brave face, "It's getting late. The tide will be out at two o'clock. We can dawdle for a while and set off at 9:30. By 12 o'clock, we can rest for a while and then start."
Jiang Feng was also nodding his head frantically. It had been a long time since he had gone to the beach, and the two guys were obviously itching to go fishing.
"Okay, you guys wait here, I'll go upstairs to change clothes and leave." After Zheng Gan said that, he returned to the bedroom. Instead of changing clothes immediately, he lay down and took a nap.
The two people below were like ants on a hot pan, turning left and right. If Qiao Xin had not already left, they would have suspected that something bad was happening above.
"No, I can't bear it anymore. I want to go up and call him." Lin Hao really couldn't wait any longer. It was really uncomfortable to wait here.
Just as he was about to go upstairs, Zheng Gan came down, stretching lazily. As he walked, he said, "Alas, I just received an important call, so I've been delayed for a long time. Let's get going."
Lin Hao really wanted to ask why there was an indentation on his face when he made a phone call. But then he thought, less trouble is better. If he delayed any longer, who knows what else might happen.
The three of them drove to the dock. More than half of the boats that had originally docked here to take shelter from the wind were gone. It seemed that many people still chose to go out at this time.
"You came quite early." Wang Yunzhou received a call yesterday saying that he would go out today, but not to cast nets, but to go fishing, so he came here in advance to check the boat.
"Yeah, wait until Uncle Gui and the others arrive, then we'll set off. Just treat it as a day out."
After waiting for a while, Jia Gui and the other two came over. Now everyone was there. After a little tidying up, the boat started and headed towards the uninhabited island.
"Our destination this time is an uninhabited island. Let's go there to catch seafood." Zheng Gan had not told them what they were going to do this time.
When Jia Gui and the others heard about going to the beach, they were all confused and questioning. "Boss, don't you own the beach hunting area? If you want to go to the beach, can't you just go there? Why bother to go through all the trouble of sailing there?"
Spending so much manpower and resources just to catch seafood? Isn't this a bit of a waste? Besides, how much money can you make from catching seafood? Only a few hundred yuan if you're lucky.
"Don't underestimate this uninhabited island. At least one-fifth of our ship's profit was earned from this island." Lin Hao couldn't help it and revealed the truth directly.
"Ah!" Jia Gui and the others were completely stunned. One-fifth of this boat? That would be over 200,000 yuan! What a joke! Can you earn so much by fishing? Why would you do such a stupid job? You could just go fishing every day.
In response, they said, "Are you kidding me? Do you think we are inland people who have never seen the world?"
Seeing that this country bumpkin didn't believe him, Lin Hao became anxious and explained for a long time, but the guy just refused to believe him.
"Okay, I admit defeat. You'll know when you go and see for yourself later." Lin Hao had no other choice but to throw out these harsh words.
"Tsk, who are you trying to fool? Gooseneck barnacles and general's cap, how can a young person just dream?" Jia Gui and the others sneered at this.
Zheng Gan just smiled when he heard the conversation between the few people and didn't say much. The fact that he brought them here actually meant that he completely trusted these people from the bottom of his heart.
It was still early when the boat arrived at the island. Everyone had lunch on the boat before going down with their equipment. Even Wang Yunzhou wanted to see what was going on on this island where they could earn 200,000 yuan.
Zheng Gan, who had a plug-in, led the way in front and followed the instructions of the map. He first arrived at the reef area.
"No, brother, you slapped me, why do I feel like I'm dreaming?" Jia Teng rubbed his eyes and said in horror.
Jia Gui couldn't believe his eyes at this moment, but after hearing what his brother said, he still slapped him hard and asked, "How is it? Does it hurt?"
"It hurts, it hurts so much. I'm not dreaming. Am I crazy? Why are there so many abalone?" Jia Teng covered his face and was almost going crazy.
Abalone are everywhere as far as the eye can see, and they are all quite large.
"Hehe, now you believe what I said, right?" Lin Hao came to the two of them at a very opportune moment to show off.
"I believe it." After wiping the saliva from the corners of their mouths, several people nodded frantically.
"Okay, stop chatting. There are many of us here today, so let's hurry up and try to catch all the abalone here before the tide goes out." Zheng Gan squatted down first and started to catch abalone.
Even though there are many of them, abalone are all attached to the reefs, so it is still a bit difficult to catch one.
Seeing this, everyone came to their senses and found a place to start picking abalone. They were all very excited. Even though they were working for Zheng Gan, this scene was enough for them to remember for the rest of their lives.
Time passed by minute by minute, and everyone was concentrating on catching abalone. From time to time, exclamations were heard, which meant that a large abalone had definitely been found.
Zheng Gan was the first to give up. He found a relatively flat rock and sat down. He lit a cigarette and began to rub his waist. He watched everyone working hard, and then asked curiously,
"That's really strange, aren't you tired?"
This requires squatting there all the time. It's okay for young people like Lin Hao and Jiang Feng, after all, they are not married yet and have never used their kidneys, but how can fifty-year-old men like Jia Gui and Wang Yunzhou persist like this?
"Tired? Are you kidding? Have you ever seen anyone feel tired after picking up money?" Wang Yunzhou said with great disdain.
"Okay, okay, you guys are all awesome, but I treat money like dirt. Well, I won't rest anymore." Zheng Gan took a deep puff of his cigarette, then continued to squat down.
