Lin Hao is a complete foodie. When he comes across something new, rare and delicious, he will definitely eat as much as he can. Today he ate two king crabs. Zheng Gan almost thought he had lost his appetite.
After the meal, everyone went to rest. Today was indeed a very tiring day, and catching king crabs is really not a good job.
So Zheng Gan just discussed with everyone in the restaurant and said that after the crab fishing season is over, they will never come again.
This crab fishing season is said to last for four months, but in reality the time for fishing is only a few weeks. Zheng Gan and his team arrived relatively late, so they could only properly catch crabs for about a week.
After a night's rest, Zheng Gan stretched himself and came to the deck early the next morning.
Deng Youfa was the only one on the deck observing the weather. Seeing Zheng Gan, he smiled and said, "Boss, the weather is really nice today. The waves on the sea are not particularly strong, which is rare."
"That's right. It looks like we'll have good luck today." Zheng Gan laughed. He also knew that in Alaska, the crabbing season is basically accompanied by strong winds and heavy rains like yesterday every day. There are basically not many times when there is sunshine and light wind like today.
"Let's hurry up and call everyone out and get them out of the cage." Deng Youfa was very enthusiastic. He hoped that he could get a huge harvest this time.
The first time he put the fish into the cage, it was a perfect situation. At least he and Liu Youcai had never had such a good harvest.
Yesterday, Zheng Gan said they were only going to be here for a week, which really worried them. Doesn't that mean they're going to be out of a job? Their main purpose in coming to Alaska is to catch crabs, and now they're only going to stay for a week, which is really a disaster.
So, taking advantage of the fact that no one else was around, Deng Youfa spoke up, "Boss, I want to ask you, what will we do after we return to Hokkaido?"
Zheng Gan was stunned. He immediately remembered what he had said last night. "Old Deng, I was wrong about this. I was so happy yesterday that I forgot about your business. If you have any ideas, just tell me."
"Lao Liu and I really want to work on your ship, but I wonder if you, boss, can accept us." Deng Youfa said with some anticipation.
Both of them are experienced captains who have worked at sea for more than 20 years and have seen the world, but this is the first time they have seen such good conditions and such a good atmosphere.
So they really want to stay on the ship and work.
Deng Youfa noticed that Zheng Gan didn't say anything and immediately became anxious. "Boss, we can both be crew members."
He was willing to do anything to stay. Although the captain's salary was high, the monthly salary of the crew here was no less than that of the captains on other ships, and the invisible benefits were even rarer. Even the crew members did it.
"How can that be? You and Lao Liu are both experienced captains. It would be a shame for you to be crew members. How about this?" Zheng Gan quickly waved his hand and refused. "You will still be captains on the ship. Your salary and everything will remain the same. However, if we need more manpower when sorting, I hope you two can come and help."
Their current salary is based on the captain's salary, which is 37,000 yuan a month, which is not a low salary.
Although Zheng Gan was not short of this little money, he was a businessman and would definitely save money whenever possible. He had other considerations when agreeing to let the two of them stay.
The company has always been small, and there is an empty big ship at home, so the two captains, Deng Youfa and Liu Youcai, are considering the future. He can't always work alone.
When Deng Youfa heard Zheng Gan agreed, he immediately laughed and quickly patted his chest and promised, "Thank you, boss. Don't worry, Lao Liu and I will do our best."
The two chatted for a while, and then everyone came to the deck.
"The weather is good today, so let's hurry up and put down the cages." After Zheng Gan called out, everyone started to get busy.
One hundred king crab cages may not sound like a lot, but it is still very troublesome to operate. You have to put bait in the cages before putting them into the sea one by one.
After all the king crab cages were ready, more than four hours had passed. The next step was to wait. It would take about twenty hours before we could start collecting the cages.
"It's so boring. I really want to play a few rounds." Lin Hao said boredly.
"I just found that sometimes you seem to have some problem with your brain. With this wind and waves, you say you want to fish? Is it the fish catching you or you fishing?" Zheng Gan was stunned. Is this something a normal person can say?
"Who has a problem with his brain? I'm just bored. Besides, why are you just sitting there doing nothing after setting up the crab cage? Can't you make some extra money by fishing in the waters of Alaska? Is there no fish in the waters of Alaska?" Lin Hao looked at him as if he was a fool.
Zheng Gan was stunned when he heard this. Yes, why not cast the net here? Not all people come to the Alaskan waters to catch king crabs. This is also one of the top ten fishing grounds in the world.
The waters here are home to a large number of cold-water fish and marine life, mainly including salmon, flounder, herring, crabs, etc.
"Old Deng, Old Deng, come here quickly, I have something to ask you." After Zheng Gan figured it out, he ran straight to find Deng Youfa.
"What's up, boss?" Deng Youfa was playing billiards with Xiao Yu and the others. When he saw Zheng Gan rushing over, he quickly put down his billiard cue and
"Well, have you ever come here to cast nets before? Like, drag nets and catch fish?" Zheng Gan asked.
Deng Youfa nodded. "Yes, after all, the crabbing season is very short, so we usually set up nets. The fish resources here are also very good."
"Okay, I got it. You guys go ahead and have fun." After asking, Zheng Gan left in a hurry again. He also knew that the resources here must be good. If nothing else, he could tell from the map plug-in.
But he was worried about whether this place was suitable for casting nets. Now that he got a positive answer, he had to do it. Anyway, it would take a long time to wait for king crabs, so casting a net would be fine.
It just means that everyone will have to suffer a little more during this period of time.
Zheng Gan gathered everyone together. He wanted to solicit their opinions and give them some sweet treats.
"It's not easy for us to come to Alaska, and it takes twenty hours to collect the crab pots, so I want to ask everyone if we can take advantage of this time to go fishing. The fish resources here are also very good."
