In just a short while, Bai Yu caught three groupers on the beach, and they were all groupers that were quite valuable.
These three fish alone could be worth three or four thousand yuan, or even more.
The third fish, a brown grouper, in particular, sparked a lot of discussion among viewers in the live stream.
If netizens still had some doubts or suspicions about the first two groupers, then fishing for this brown grouper indirectly dispelled their doubts.
The first two groupers took a while to catch; it was possible if someone had baited them on the seabed.
However, when fishing for this brown grouper, the process of catching the fish was very short. From casting the rod to catching the fish, the whole process took at most two minutes.
In such a short time, it is extremely difficult, almost impossible, to hang fish underwater.
Even if there were divers waiting in the ocean in front of Bai Yu and his group, there wasn't enough time for them to find a hook and hook the brown grouper.
Besides, this is a brown grouper weighing over 20 pounds. If it were on land without water, controlling this fish wouldn't be a problem.
However, in the ocean, a fish of this size is not so easy to control.
Besides, even if you're hooking a fish, who hooks a fish the moment they cast their line? You have to wait a few minutes or ten minutes.
After carefully collecting the three grouper, Bai Yu showed no intention of stopping fishing and continued fishing.
With such a high luck stat today, there's no reason not to keep fishing; this is a great opportunity to make money.
As one fish after another was caught, their catch grew better and better, no longer limited to grouper, but including all kinds of fish.
Towards the end, Bai Yu even drove back in a rubber boat to return some of their catch, otherwise they would have run out of things to carry the fish.
In particular, there are many sea fish here that die as soon as they are taken out of the water, such as pomfret, white-scaled fish, and barracuda. These creatures all need to be refrigerated.
They didn't bring any ice with them when they came to the island, and they only arrived yesterday, so even if they had ice, it would have melted long ago.
So in order to preserve these fish that need to be refrigerated, they naturally need to go back to the yacht and send some of the catch back.
They fished until after 11 a.m., then prepared to pack up and start preparing lunch for themselves.
When it comes to food, Bai Yu and his friends certainly don't skimp on themselves; they eat whatever is delicious.
They ate lunch at one o'clock in the afternoon, and then rested in the tent for a while.
Around 2 p.m., the eight of them came out of the tent again and got busy on the island.
This time, they changed their focus, shifting from fishing and beachcombing to collecting supplies.
The supplies they were collecting were all relatively common, especially those common on this small island: coconuts.
After they leave the island, they will head north. Once they reach a certain distance, there will be no more coconuts to be found in the north.
Among Bai Yu's group of eight, many of them are from Hainan Province. They may not be particularly dependent on coconuts, but it's still nice to occasionally open one and have a drink.
Moreover, coconut is also a food ingredient. Whether it's used to make coconut chicken or to make soup, it's quite good.
To be honest, Bai Yu was quite envious of the Filipino monkeys when it came to picking coconuts, because they actually used monkeys to pick coconuts there.
But in our family, monkeys are protected animals; they're not allowed to keep them as pets. You expect them to pick coconuts for you?
You must have suffered at the hands of the people from Mount Emei before!
So if they want to pick coconuts, they have no choice but to climb the trees themselves and pick them themselves.
Don't be fooled by the fact that coconut tree trunks are very smooth; both Bai Yu and Wang Hai are experts at climbing coconut trees.
It was at this moment that the fans in the live stream realized that Bai Yu had a hidden skill.
Bai Yu and his group didn't pick too many coconuts; they only picked about a hundred or so before stopping.
Then all the coconuts were sent to the yacht, some stored at room temperature and some frozen.
After all, these coconuts aren't meant to be eaten right now; some of them will need to be stored for several months, so the storage method naturally needs to be carefully considered.
After finishing all that, Bai Yu and his crew went beachcombing on the island, catching all sorts of seafood and transporting it all back to the yacht.
Their yacht's fuel tank is full now, enough for them to use for a while, but they will need to save up at least several hundred thousand dollars for fuel before the next refueling.
The reason why people in our family are so keen on buying cars instead of things like yachts is largely because of the high fuel consumption. Even for a small yacht, filling up the tank once can cost at least five figures.
Another reason is that yachts can only be driven on the open sea and are not used very frequently, so naturally not many people buy them.
The yacht that Bai Yu and his group were on could basically be considered a large yacht, and the fuel consumption of such a yacht was naturally extremely high.
So Bai Yu and his group naturally need to work hard to make money. They can earn some money on this island today, and then they will have to find ways to make money again when they move to the next place.
Otherwise, they would be unable to travel around the world without money!
For an entire afternoon, besides picking coconuts, Bai Yu and his friends spent their time gathering seafood; everyone was actively engaged in the activity.
Even after dinner, they still didn't stop.
As night fell, a large number of seafood came out of their habitats and, unsurprisingly, encountered Bai Yu and his group. The final outcome is self-evident.
Throughout the first half of the night, Bai Yu and his companions made several trips between the island and the yacht, delivering their catch from beachcombing to the yacht multiple times before returning to the island to continue their beachcombing.
According to incomplete statistics, their harvest from this beachcombing trip was at least 30,000 yuan. They caught no fewer than 30 small green lobsters, not to mention countless blue crabs and orchid crabs.
At midnight, Bai Yu waited until they had all their belongings and returned to the yacht; they were about to leave the island.
