Hearing Zheng Gan's words, Lin Hao's face showed surprise. He never thought that there would be another ship that could get so many top-quality goods.
"Well, we only have one night left, so why don't we work all night?"
The competition lasts for five days. According to the regulations, the team must return to the port before 3 pm on the sixth day. If the time is exceeded, the team will automatically forfeit.
So if I work all night tonight, I can probably do at least three networks, and if time is tight, I can even do one more network in the morning.
"No need for now, that's the worst option. Let's put down the net first and see how this one goes." Zheng Gan rejected Lin Hao's suggestion. There was no need to work so hard, and the size of the red dots in the area in front of him was very good, almost twice the size of the lantern fish. If the next two nets could do the same, wouldn't that be equivalent to dragging up four nets?
Seeing this, Lin Hao didn't say anything more. He was just worried for a moment. He was absolutely convinced of the daily fishing method.
After the net was lowered, everyone hurried to eat dinner. After dinner, they continued to sort the lantern fish that were pulled up by the previous boat. Time was a little tight.
After the first message came online in the evening, Lin Hao, who had been a little worried before, also smiled.
"That's great, bro! This net is full of black tiger shrimps, which is worth two nets of lantern fish!"
Zheng Gan also grinned. He had caught black tiger shrimps before. Song Lei’s purchase price was 80 yuan per catty. These more than four tons of black tiger shrimps could be sold for about 700,000 yuan.
Moreover, the map shows that at least one net of these black tiger shrimps can be caught.
"Everyone, thank you for your hard work. Let's work overtime tonight to get another net. When we get back, I'll double your bonuses." Zheng Gan used financial incentives. It was already nine o'clock in the evening. If things continued like this, it would take almost four in the morning to finish everything.
"No problem. Anyway, we can all rest when we return tomorrow." Everyone on the boat said that there was no problem at all and assured them with pats on their chests.
Song Zhao also agreed, saying that he could take a rest after the internet came up.
They had already pulled up three nets during the day, and with the one just now, they had dragged up four nets in more than ten hours. This was already a very large workload. The main work was the sorting, but the rest was easy.
Zheng Gan looked at the people whose eyes were a little red, and there was no other way. He was even more tired. He had to help with sorting and give directions, which was a double test of his physical and mental strength.
By the time the last net of seafood came up, everyone was exhausted, but looking at the more than four tons of black tiger shrimp, they gritted their teeth and persevered.
"Uncle Song, you go and have a rest first. We just need to start the return journey before 8 o'clock tomorrow morning." Zheng Gan hurriedly asked Captain Song Zhao to go and have a rest first. The only work left was sorting. If he was not afraid that these black tiger shrimps would be left outside for a long time, he would have wanted to wait until tomorrow morning when they returned to clean them up.
This would be fine in China because the weather has gotten colder, especially at sea, where it is already below zero, making it no different from preserving the food. However, this is not the case in Sri Lanka because the temperature is still over 20 degrees Celsius. If seafood is left on the deck, it will soon go bad.
By the time they had packed up all the black tiger prawns, it was almost four in the morning. The exhausted people quickly ate a few bites of food and returned to the cabin to rest.
As for Zheng Gan, he first spoke to Song Lei via satellite phone, and then quickly fell asleep. When he woke up, the ship had already returned to the port, and the organizer's staff had even begun to count them.
"Brother, how is it? Did that lucky ship show any signs of counterattack yesterday?" Zheng Gan yawned and found Song Lei.
"Haha, don't worry, brother. I've already inquired about it. That boat didn't get any big gains except those bluefin tuna." Song Lei had a smile on his face the whole time. After he learned about the situation here in the early morning, he started celebrating in advance.
Zheng Gan nodded when he heard that. Although he was confident of winning the championship, he was also a little afraid that something unexpected might happen.
"After they finish counting, I will have someone go on board to move all the seafood away, and then settle the bill for you." Song Lei really made a fortune this time. The prize money he got from betting alone was almost half of his small goal.
If he didn't have such a group of brothers who followed him through thick and thin, he would have planned to return home to retire.
Seeing that nothing was wrong at the scene, Zheng Gan asked Lin Hao to keep an eye on it and call him after everything was done, then he returned to the cabin to video chat with Qiao Xin.
We were busy until around seven o'clock in the evening, and the award ceremony was finally about to begin.
Unsurprisingly, Zheng Gan and his team won the championship with fish worth a total of 8.75 million yuan, a prize of one million yuan, two years of tax exemption, and a big trophy.
This result also amazed all the contestants. They were all veterans of sea fishing. It was incredible that they could catch so many fish in just five days.
Many people also looked at Zheng Gan with strange eyes, which made him smile bitterly and mutter,
"It looks like I'm going to be famous again. Maybe next time I go out, there will be a lot of boats following me."
"There's nothing I can do. Winning the championship is definitely not all good. But it's okay. If someone dares to trip you up, just tell me. I still have some face here, brother." Song Lei said viciously.
Zheng Gan smiled. He was not worried about that. He was just afraid that these greedy people would follow them every day and delay his making money.
After the tedious ceremony, Zheng Gan brought the onlookers back to the boat. They had gained a lot from this trip, so a commendation meeting was needed.
"Everyone has worked hard for the past five days. Starting tomorrow, we will rest here for three days to replenish supplies and get refreshed before setting off again." Zheng Gan announced the first benefit.
"We were out for five days this time, and including the bonus, we took home a total of 9.75 million yuan, which was a pretty good harvest."
"I told you before that everyone's bonus would be doubled. I applied to the company again and got a bonus of 3,000 yuan per person!"
When it came to rest, everyone was only slightly happy, but when they heard the bonus of 3,000 yuan, everyone burst into cheers. Isn't it just to make more money that they work so hard?
There is still a little over a month left until the Chinese New Year. So far, the total net profit of this ship has reached nearly 20 million.
