As the live stream ended, Bai Yu went inside the cabin and sat down in the rest area.
It's a must-see that Bai Yu didn't fish much tonight; he didn't seem to put in much effort, just talking non-stop.
However, he also expended a lot of energy and walked a great deal of distance. The number of steps displayed on his phone alone was tens of thousands.
In addition, constantly talking also consumes physical energy, and the energy expenditure in this regard is also considerable.
I went to the toilet several times that night, but I still had to keep talking and drinking water.
Originally, he wanted to use the live stream to give fans some real benefits and also let them do good deeds to have some fun.
But he really didn't think that while his fans were probably having a good time, he was so tired. He should have just stopped selling products or found someone else to do it, and gone fishing instead.
"Brother Yu, we've already sold all our fish. What's the next step? Which city should we ship the goods to?"
Li Shuang looked at Bai Yu, who was lying listlessly on the sofa. Although he didn't want to disturb him, there were still some things he had to say.
"This is simple. Just use my Douyin account to ask Anta's staff where they plan to receive this red octopus. We'll just send the package from where they receive it."
By the way, since Anta has a place to receive this red snapper, they must have a transportation line there. Ask them if they have cold chain logistics and if they cooperate with SF Express. If so, ask them to send you their contact information so we don't have to look for it when we get there.
Bai Yu didn't even open her eyes before giving Li Shuang a reply.
Li Shuang immediately contacted Anta's official representatives. Although it was quite late, for a large company like Anta, there are always people on duty at night, no matter how late it is.
Moreover, among the staff on duty, there should be at least one or a few managers to deal with any emergencies.
Li Shuang quickly finished communicating with the other party. The agreed delivery address was a port in Xiamen, and the other party promised to help Bai Yu and his team contact SF Express cold chain staff so that they could send out the goods after arriving at the port.
Both Bai Yu and Li Shuang were very familiar with Xiamen, and it happened to be on their northward journey.
With a specific delivery address in place, Li Shuang also told the captain the address of the next stop, and then they headed towards Xiamen.
Adhering to the principle of "the sooner the better," Bai Yu and his team planned to ship out all the fish as soon as possible so that netizens who bought the fish could receive their goods quickly. Then, those who wanted to resell the fish could do so, and those who wanted to eat it could eat it themselves.
It's quite a distance from where Bai Yu and his group are now to Xiamen by yacht. According to the captain, it will take at least ten hours.
Bai Yu wasn't particularly concerned about the length of time, since they were currently on a round-the-world trip, spending every day at sea, and completing the journey in the process of traveling.
Afterwards, Bai Yu and the others gathered together for a brief chat before returning to their rooms to rest.
It's getting late. If I don't go to sleep now, I won't be able to get up tomorrow.
Nothing was said that night.
The next morning around 10 a.m., Bai Yu came out of the room.
Since it's a yacht, and a yacht that's over forty meters long, its facilities must be excellent. Taking a yacht is no different from staying in a hotel.
Bai Yu and his group got up relatively early, as it would still be three or four hours before the yacht docked at the pier in Xiamen.
This period of time is neither long nor short.
Especially for Bai Yu and the others, do you think they'll still be eating at this time?
From a tourist's perspective, I wouldn't recommend eating at this restaurant, since they're about to arrive in Xiamen. They can have a better meal after they get to the pier.
They were really hungry if they didn't eat, after all, they had slept for almost ten hours and were already starving.
After much deliberation, Bai Yu and the others decided to simply eat some snacks to tide them over, and then wait until they reached the dock before going ashore to eat something better.
Moreover, since we still have three or four hours to go before reaching the pier, we can't waste that time; we should make the most of it.
"Shuangzi, did we bring longline and fishing rods with us this time? Why don't we try out these two fishing methods now?"
Bai Yu held a loaf of bread in his hand. He stood on the deck, enjoying the breeze, and chatted with Li Shuang and the others beside him.
Although there are four couples on Bai Yu's yacht, in their daily interactions, the four men usually stick together, while the four women, including Li Xue, stick together.
If either side comes up with a good idea, then everyone should discuss it together and work on it.
"Longline? You mean those baskets of fishing line? I brought three baskets with me on this trip. Can I use this thing while the boat is in motion?"
I didn't prepare many boat poles; there are eight of us, and I only brought four. We can each take one in pairs.
"Give it a try. Anyway, this fishing line isn't worth much. Let's see how it works for fishing."
We took out all the fishing rods and placed them at the stern to hold the boat. Whether or not fish bite, we'll just leave it to chance. If they bite, we'll fish; if not, it's not a big problem.
After Bai Yu finished speaking, he took the lead and walked towards the storage room.
All their supplies and equipment for this voyage are stored in the storage room. It contains a wide variety of items, basically everything imaginable, so it's quite well-equipped in that respect.
In no time, three baskets of longline fishing lines and four boat rods were brought out, along with more than a dozen boxes of frozen mackerel bait.
"Ah Hai, you and Xue'er take Xia Jing and the others to set up these fishing rods. Place them on both sides of the stern of the boat. We also need to put longline lines in the middle area."
"Understood, Brother Yu. Is there anything else you require?"
"No, just be careful. Also, the fishing rod is just like when we usually fish, with bait on the hook, and then you just need to set up the support."
"Okay, then I'll go work with Jingjing and the others."
Wang Hai then left with Li Xuexia and the others, carrying four boat poles towards the stern.
The fishing rods that Bai Yu and his friends prepared were much thicker and stronger than ordinary fishing rods, indicating that they were much more capable of withstanding heavy loads.
Just the tip of the fishing rod handle is almost as thick as a forearm. In Bai Yu's opinion, this thing could probably be used to catch a whale without any problem.
In fact, this boat rod can actually be used to fish for whales, although it certainly won't work for humpback whales that weigh tens of tons.
It's not that the fishing rod is weak, but rather that the fishing boat or the fishing vessel you're on is inadequate. These things really don't have an advantage against a humpback whale weighing tens of tons, so forget about trying to catch it with a fishing rod.
The invention of this boat rod was mainly to attract large fish to bite the hook, and then to catch super-large sea fish of all kinds through other means.
Previously, various whaling ships used these rods. However, as time progressed and the number of anglers increased, some anglers discovered boat rods and improved them into the boat rods we know today.
According to the fishing tackle shop owner, the four fishing rods that Bai Yu and his team prepared were extremely strong, with strong enough fishing lines and powerful enough reeling force to easily handle even a fish weighing several tons.
Although Bai Yu didn't quite believe what the shop owner said, he did believe at least one thing: the fishing rods were indeed very strong.
Putting aside the boat rods, the cost of the three baskets of fishing lines that Li Shuang prepared was much lower, only a few thousand yuan, which wasn't even enough to cover the cost of a single boat rod.
These baskets of longline fishing lines are all 1,000 meters long, with more than 100 hooks on them, almost one hook every five meters.
Li Shuang wasn't sure whether the density of this fishing line was high or just normal.
This was his first time encountering this stuff, so he had never used it before. The three baskets of longline fishing line he bought were recommended by the fishing tackle shop owner.
This fishing line is actually quite interesting. It's like a multi-hook rig, with a lot of hooks on a single fishing line.
The main line is one kilometer long. The remaining five meters are for each hook, with a leader tied to it. Tying these is quite a hassle.
Fortunately, the fishing line Li Shuang bought was a set, and it came with a leader line already attached, so Bai Yu and the others didn't need to bother with that.
All they need to do is untangle the fishing lines, bait the hooks, and throw them into the sea.
Bai Yu and the others had never used a longline before and didn't know much about it. However, their boat had a net, so since they weren't sure, they decided to find someone who did.
With the internet today, you can find almost any information online, even basic information.
Bai Yu quickly found an instructional video about longline fishing online, and then he and his friends followed the instructions and started working on the deck.
Bai Yu, Li Shuang, and Lu Sheng each carried one basket of fishing lines and a stool. They then went to the stern of the boat and began to attach bait to the fishing lines.
The bait that Bai Yu and his friends prepared was mackerel. They bought the mackerel to use for fishing. Each mackerel was quite large, and if cut up, one mackerel could be used to bait two or three hooks.
On the main line of this longline, there is a float at regular intervals, which is used to control the fishing depth.
Longline fishing differs from other methods in that it primarily targets mid-to-upper-level marine fish, where there are a greater abundance of fish, making them relatively easier to catch.
As time passed, after Wang Hai and the others finished setting up the four boat poles, they came to help Bai Yu and the others.
With someone's help, the longline was dealt with very quickly; in no time at all, all three longlines were lowered into the water.
Unlike other fishermen who use longline fishing, they use longline fishing where they let the line out and then stop the boat to wait for the next reel-in.
But their situation is different. They are heading to Xiamen, so there's no time to stop. The yacht is constantly sailing.
And this speed isn't slow either; it's traveling at 20 knots, which is equivalent to over 37 kilometers per hour.
For a boat rod, this speed is still sufficient for fishing. If fish spot the mackerel bait on the hook, they will likely bite.
However, with extended fishing lines, it's less clear whether you can catch any fish.
However, for Bai Yu and the others, whether they could catch fish or not was not a big problem. After all, they were trying out these two methods of fishing that they had never used before.
It would be best if we could catch something, but it's okay if we can't, we can come back next time.
