The refraction of the sea water affected the visual judgment of the tourists, but there were many experienced anglers present. They could tell at a glance that it was a yellowfin tuna, and it weighed more than 70 kilograms.
Although they were not the ones who caught the tuna, they were also excited and had goosebumps all over their bodies.
"Hook it!" The captain shouted, and a fisherman found the hook, approached and hooked the tuna that had surfaced.
The tuna completely left the water and was dragged to the deck by three people. Everyone had already taken out their mobile phones to take pictures.
The captain measured its length, 1.23 meters. When they put it on the scale, the number “39.6 kg” jumped out, which made the tourists cheer: “1.2 meters long, nearly 80 kilograms, amazing!”
The preliminary estimated value of this yellowfin tuna is 5,000 yuan. The tourists who recorded the whole process sighed: “No wonder the previous fish were released. Compared with this fish, it’s nothing!”
However, under normal circumstances, tuna are active in the morning and evening. During this time period, Li Yaolin caught such a big tuna, which confirmed his guess - this girl is destined to catch fish!
Because of this fish, the fishing boat was delayed in returning. The dock thought something had happened and called the boat captain through the radio dispatch station to inquire about the reason for the delay.
The captain was so happy that his face was red. He said with a big smile: "It's a long story. I was arguing with a big guy for a long time, which delayed the return time. Now I'm back and I'll show you a big guy!"
Although he didn't catch the tuna, he did a lot of work, and the tuna was caught on his fishing boat, so he was honored.
When the fishing boat returned to the dock, the employees of the boat fishing project team knew that someone had caught a tuna weighing several dozen kilograms.
To show his importance to the project, the supervisor also ran to watch, and saw a familiar figure.
Supervisor: "..."
Island owner, aren't you at work? How did you get off the fishing boat?
Lin Qitong also dragged Zheng Xuan over to join in the fun. The former was planning to shoot a video for promotion when she saw the island owner, Mr. Li, who had gone fishing after a meeting and arranging tasks in the morning.
"Who caught this fish?" someone asked.
"This little girl." The enthusiastic tourist pointed at Li Yaolin in the crowd.
The pupils of the employees of Xingzhou Island were shaking: Island owner? Six!
Li Yaolin did not become proud of this. She just smiled at the two little sisters and asked in a low voice: "How is it, my strength is not bad, right?"
Zheng Xuan raised her thumbs up: "Lu Xun said that luck is also a part of strength."
Li Yaolin: "..."
Lu Xun did not say this, this sentence was said by the Turtle Immortal!
Lin Qitong took photos around the tuna, looking incredulous: "You're cheating, right? I've never heard that you're so good at fishing before!"
Li Yaolin nodded. She was indeed cheating, but it was the increase in satisfaction that the Sea God gave her.
Lin Qitong asked curiously: "How do you deal with this fish?"
She just heard people talking about how such a big tuna is usually around 60 yuan per catty, and the fish caught from the waters of Xingzhou Island is a little higher than the market price. Since Xingzhou Island recovered the seafood from the anglers, it is difficult for fishmongers on the other side to receive fish caught from the waters of Xingzhou Island. Faced with the constant calls to book seafood from Xingzhou Island, and in order to grab more seafood from Xingzhou Island, the fishmongers had to raise the purchase price, resulting in the seafood from Xingzhou Island being higher than the market price. ——So the market price of this tuna is nearly 80 yuan per catty, which is worth about 6,000 yuan.
Lin Qitong thought that with Li Yaolin's personality, even if she didn't sell it to the fishmongers, she would send it to the seafood buffet restaurant to attract tourists to the restaurant. Unexpectedly, Li Yaolin said without hesitation: "Send it to the kitchen for lunch."
"Oh Yeah!" Lin Qitong swallowed her saliva. She had eaten tuna before, but she had never eaten tuna caught from the waters of Xingzhou Island.
I'm in for a treat today!
Manager Qi rushed over after hearing the news. As for how to handle the fish, he had another idea: "Mr. Li, why don't we let the robot handle the fish? On the one hand, we can continue to increase the exposure of the buffet restaurant, and on the other hand, we can use the
tuna this time to create a gimmick and warm up for the 'Tuna Cup'." Li Yaolin shook his head: "This will easily cause tourists to misunderstand and think that there is tuna in the seafood buffet today. When they can't eat tuna, they will think that we are misleading consumers. We can let 'Hao Meiwei' handle it, or we can create a gimmick, but we can't do it randomly."
Manager Qi insisted: "But we can't miss such a good publicity opportunity!"
"Promotions must be realistic!"
Qi Jing thought about it and compromised: "Then let's use this tuna to preheat the 'tuna cup'. When the time comes, the tuna caught at the event will be handed over to the buffet restaurant as the special food of the day to attract tourists to dine at the buffet restaurant."
"Okay." Li Yaolin finally approved this promotion plan.
...
As the tuna was carried away, the crowd of onlookers saw that there was no excitement to watch and dispersed.
However, the crowd dispersed, but the news that a tuna weighing nearly 80 kilograms was caught in the waters of Xingzhou Island spread through the Internet and gradually became known to more and more people.
At this moment, an angry roar suddenly came from the office of the Fishing and Sailing Club: "Impossible! How could there be tuna in this sea area! Even yellowfin tuna is unheard of!"
The man at the desk said: "Is there a video to prove it? A little girl caught it, and it weighed nearly 80 kilograms!"
The man sitting on the office chair questioned: "It must be someone from Xingzhou Island. They bought the tuna in advance and pretended to catch it when no one was paying attention. Otherwise, how could a woman catch such a big tuna? Where did she get the strength?!"
"She caught it, but she is not strong enough, so someone else helped to catch it... No matter who caught it, it proves that there are tuna in that sea area."
The man denied it flatly: "Impossible!"
The man was a little helpless about the boss's stubbornness, but he did not explain any more. Let the boss deceive himself!
The man also knew that even if he was unwilling to admit it, it was probably the fact, so what he had to consider next was how to prevent someone from catching another tuna on the day of the "Tuna Cup" event!
He said: "You should immediately find out who are the participants in the event. After finding out, find a way to contact them and ask them to let them go on the day of the event. Anything is fine, just don't catch tuna!"
"Boss, how can they listen to us?"
"If they won't listen to us, they will listen to money, right?"
The man understood that the boss was going to spend a lot of money! He would rather bleed than let Xingzhou Island take advantage. He is a ruthless person.
...
After taking a shower and changing back into work clothes, Li Yaolin did not return to the office. Instead, she went to the convenience store to buy a coconut and sat on the beach chair at the door to enjoy the sea breeze and fish.
The cashier opened the coconut for her, and she asked casually, "Did you have lunch?"
"Yes! I had tuna. I heard that you, the boss, caught it?" The cashier smiled brightly.
Li Yaolin said, "I guess so. Others have also put in a lot of effort."
The cashier recalled the taste of tuna sashimi, swallowed her saliva, and said, "Thank you, boss! This is my first time eating tuna, it's really delicious. At first I was not used to eating raw fish, and I felt that the taste was a bit strange, but after eating it, I had an endless aftertaste and wanted to eat it again. No wonder tuna is so expensive, it turns out that it is expensive for a reason!"
She felt that it was really a blessing to be able to work here!
When she first started working, she was still a little worried. She was worried about the inconvenient transportation on the island, and she was also worried that she would get gout if she worked on the island for a long time. Unexpectedly,
after working for more than a month, she found that Xingzhou Island not only has good benefits, but also surprises everywhere. For example, the staff dormitory here does not feel damp. She sleeps very well here, and her hair loss is reduced. Even without makeup, her complexion looks much more rosy...
Seeing the employees so happy, Li Yaolin also showed a faint smile on her face.
She said: "In fact, yellowfin tuna is not particularly expensive. Only the big tuna weighing several hundred kilograms tastes particularly good. However, the fish produced by our Xingzhou Island, whether big or small, tastes pretty good."
The cashier agreed and said: "Yes!"
At this time, two customers came to the convenience store, and the cashier went away.
Li Yaolin held a coconut in one hand and drank coconut juice, while clicking on the Poseidon Holiday APP that prompted the update.
"What an efficient system!" Li Yaolin praised.
The entire interface of the updated APP still exudes a strong sense of mobile games, but the functions are clear at a glance:
the first label at the bottom of the interface is [Island], which contains information such as the island's development progress and management level;
the second label is [Island Owner], which includes her personal information, assets and employees;
followed by [Project], which contains all the projects that currently require operating costs.
The next few labels are [Wonder], [Poseidon Market] and [Task].
Finally, there is the [Notification Record], which contains message summary and revenue summary. If Li Yaolin cannot see the real-time messages popped up by the system in time, he can also check them through this record.
In the future, if Li Yaolin wants to check his assets, he can directly click on [Island Owner]. If he wants to develop a new project, he can also create a new one in [Project]. The task progress bar can also be checked at any time in [Task]. For
this National Day special task, Li Yaolin saw the details on [Task]:
Number of tourists received: 1,430 (from 00:00 on October 1, the number of people received.)
Popularity: 30% (currently more than 10 million people know and have a positive impression of Xingzhou Island.)
Search: 2.62 million times (from 00:00 on October 1, the number of searches on V blog, Little Green Book, browser, short video and other platforms.)
Attention: 78 10,000 (Total number of followers of all official accounts.)
Topic participation: 423,000 (Posting and replying to related content including V blog, Little Green Book, Moments, short videos, etc. from 00:00 on October 1.)
Li Yaolin does not have specific scenic spot data for reference, but the number of tourists received, search rate, and topic participation are all calculated from October 1. It has only been 14 hours, and she has achieved such results.
Suddenly, she saw splashes in the sea of APP, and the little mermaid swam out from it, lying lazily at the bottom of the screen, like a tourist sunbathing and enjoying a massage on the beach.
She asked in surprise: "Little Fish, aren't you on vacation?"
The little mermaid looked sad: "I am on vacation, but there are traffic jams everywhere, and there are crowds of people everywhere. It's so annoying!"
Li Yaolin laughed: "So I told you a long time ago that it is better to go back to Xingzhou Island than to travel to other places!"
The little mermaid shook her tail, and took out a pair of sunglasses from somewhere and put them on herself. The original harpoon also turned into a coconut with a straw, and she drank coconut juice leisurely.
Li Yaolin asked it again: "When did you come back? Were you helping me when I was fishing for tuna?"
The little mermaid pushed her sunglasses and denied: "No, the island owner is fishing, what does it have to do with me?"
"Oh!" Li Yaolin propped up her chin and drank a sip of coconut juice, and asked again, "I caught so many fish today. If I don't release them, wouldn't it be particularly cruel?"
Moreover, she always felt that she was luring so many fish under the influence of "natural affinity coefficient" and "sea god satisfaction", which was a bit despicable.
The little mermaid didn't quite understand why she felt guilty. She said: "I am not the same species as them. Mermaids also eat fish, and they eat them raw. In the eyes of the island owner, aren't I more cruel?"
Li Yaolin: "..."
She was speechless!
She suddenly said as if she had discovered a new continent: "So mermaids eat fish?!"
The little mermaid: "Otherwise, the island owner thought that they grew up eating vegetables?"
"I thought you grew up eating seaweed, and your body is green."
The little mermaid made an angry expression: "That's a sea turtle! It's so white!"
Li Yaolin laughed out loud, and she was not as emo as before.
That's right, why is she being so pretentious here? The sea god has unlocked the [Seafood Zone], which shows that the sea god does not oppose human fishing and catching - whether it is fishing or catching, the premise is to be moderate.
The [No Fishing Zone] was set up by her personally. In order to prevent overfishing, she did everything she could. Why should she feel guilty because she caught a tuna?
The island owner, who had regained her spirits, showed a "cunning" expression again. She pressed the little mermaid on the screen and said, "I can't guarantee that the opponent will not continue to cause trouble in the event the day after tomorrow. For safety reasons, I will also participate. When the time comes, you will help me get a tuna weighing more than 100 kilograms, just like you did today!"
The little mermaid used a harpoon to poke at her fingertips: "Don't be so self-indulgent. I said it wasn't someone who helped me! But if the island owner wants me to help, it's fine. I'll triple my salary for National Day, and it's hard work, so I have to pay more."
The island owner gave up very easily: "Forget it."
The little mermaid: "..."
It's still the familiar island owner, and it's still the familiar Zhou Pa Pi taste!
...
The next day, Li Yaolin continued to go fishing, but she didn't catch any tuna this time. Finally, adhering to the fishing philosophy of "fishermen never come back empty-handed", she got off the boat and picked up a sun-bleached crab on the reef beach.
On the way back to the office, she met Manager Qi and Lao Li who were setting up the scene for tomorrow's "Golden Tuna Cup" event. She handed the crab to Manager Qi and said, "Thank you for your hard work. Just when you came back, you happened to see a crab with heatstroke. I'll give you a snack." She
also said to Lao Li, "Next time you see such a stupid crab, I'll pick another one for you."
Manager Qi: "..."
Lao Li: "..."
Island owner, can you do something that matches your identity as a "mysterious boss worth over 100 million"?
At this time, two girls came. They looked at the curtain printed with the words "The First Golden Tuna Cup Event", then took out their tickets and mobile phones and started taking pictures of it.
Li Yaolin knew that they were participating in the "National Day Check-in Event", but still felt that it was a bit ridiculous, saying, "This place doesn't look like a tourist attraction, does it?"
"What if it is? We have to take some pictures!" the girl said, and hurried to the next place to take pictures.
Li Yaolin couldn't help laughing, saying, "It seems that tourists have bigger imaginations than Manager Qi imagined."
Manager Qi: "..."
You couldn't even come up with five tourist attractions at the beginning, and you, the island owner, have the nerve to laugh at me for your poor imagination? !
Manager Qi asked: "Are you sure you want me to speak at the opening ceremony tomorrow?"
"You don't want to?"
"That's not the case, but you are the island owner. If I let you speak, will people think you are arrogant?"
"I just want you to speak on behalf of Xingzhou Island. I will be there too!"
Besides, before the opening ceremony, she will definitely meet with the people she invited, and she won't be impolite.
Manager Qi: "..."
Actually, island owner, you just don't want to memorize the script, right? !
After Lao Li finished laughing, he restrained his expression a little and said to Li Yaolin: "Island owner, you are back at the right time. I just got the news that the fishing and sailing club is really up to something."
The author has something to say:
Island owner: Little fish, help me catch tuna?
Little mermaid: Tuna is the most important partner (ingredient) in my life!
Island owner: That's it -
Little Mermaid: You have to pay extra.
Island owner: ...
