The fisherman treated this tuna with the utmost care, using the sharpest knife to gut it without any mercy.
In the shortest possible time, without causing it any discomfort, Bai Yu cleaned it up and sent it to the freezer for storage.
Bai Yu had high expectations for this fish; he wanted to use it to break the four-day record held by the King of Fish and reach a new height.
Hopefully, this guy won't let Bai Yu down!
With the help of the staff, he then placed the tuna onto the cart.
Because this bluefin tuna was so big, the shopping cart looked like a child next to it.
So, during the process of sending it to the freezer, two staff members accompanied Bai Yu and helped him unload the tuna.
Before entering the freezer, Bai Yu weighed the bluefin tuna on a scale. After removing the weight of the trolley, the tuna weighed over 420 grams.
Four hundred and twenty pounds. Keep in mind that this is the weight remaining after the internal organs have been removed and all the blood has been drained from the body.
Before it was processed, this tuna probably weighed 500 pounds.
Seeing the final weight, Bai Yu nodded silently and thought to himself: "No wonder it took me three or four hours to catch this big fish, it's really good!"
"Mr. Bai, over 400 jin! A new king of fish has been born! If you keep this up, you'll be able to win the king of fish bonus!"
Compared to Bai Yu's composure, the two staff members who were helping Bai Yu seemed much more excited.
They were all young people in their early twenties, and this was the first time they had ever seen such a big fish. Moreover, they were deeply shocked to experience its enormous size up close.
They were also employees of Yuxue Company and were very familiar with Bai Yu. They knew Bai Yu's temperament, so they didn't feel constrained when they spoke to her.
"Calm down, don't forget what our company does. It's just a tuna, no need to make a fuss."
It's too early to talk about the Fish King's prize money. The competition doesn't end until tonight, and no one can guarantee they'll win until then.
As Bai Yu spoke, she pushed the trolley into the freezer.
Bai Yu had changed his clothes; he put on a thick military overcoat over his original attire.
This kind of attire is essential for entering a cryogenic chamber. Otherwise, given the normal temperatures in the South China Sea, imagine suddenly entering a freezer at tens of degrees below zero and then coming out...
Rapid temperature changes can easily cause health problems for a person.
Therefore, for the sake of your health, you should wear a military overcoat when going in and out to protect yourself.
After Bai Yu, with the help of the staff, put the tuna away and stepped out of the freezer, he heard some news.
This is absolutely incredible news! Someone has caught a great white shark!
"Who? You're saying someone caught a great white shark? And a great white shark that's almost three meters long? It must weigh six or seven hundred pounds!"
When Bai Yu heard the news, he looked at the staff member next to him with a blank expression and asked.
You have to understand that he hasn't had a moment's rest since he got up today. He's been busy for three or four hours and only managed to catch a tuna weighing four or five hundred pounds.
How come this guy is so fierce? In the same amount of time, the other person caught a great white shark that was even bigger than his tuna?
This is really a bit exaggerated. If you ask Bai Yu, he wouldn't be able to catch a great white shark of this size in the same amount of time.
He was already exhausted from fishing for this one tuna. He could catch a bigger one, but that would take much longer.
"Mr. Bai, it was Mr. Lu who caught it. And this great white shark isn't the first one caught today. Mr. Lu's is the second great white shark we've caught today."
"What? Only two great white sharks? What's the situation in the waters we're in? Are there that many great white sharks here?"
Two great white sharks, one of which weighs 500 pounds.
Who is this? I worked so hard all morning and finally managed to get a result of over 400 pounds, and this was all wiped out in an instant?
Bai Yu was very frustrated at this time. He had caught a tuna weighing more than 400 pounds, but his final result was not as good as others.
Most importantly, when fishing for great white sharks, you don't need to get on the boat. Once you've confirmed it's a great white shark, you can cut the line to increase your score.
But Bai Yu still needs to catch the tuna that have taken the bait, clean them, and store them in the freezer.
This whole process takes a lot of time, and quite a bit of time at that. If someone is lucky, they could catch a lot of fish.
Of course, the tuna that Bai Yu caught wasn't without its benefits. The only benefit was that it was valuable; after the competition ended, it could bring Bai Yu a profit of over 100,000.
However, compared to the profits, Bai Yu still wants results more; he still wants to strive for the championship.
Bai Yu then walked onto the deck while chatting with the staff.
Through their conversation, Bai Yu learned that there were many large fish in the sea area they were currently in.
In just this one morning, no fewer than twenty giant fish weighing over 100 pounds have been caught, and this is not the end; there are still quite a few large fish in the sea.
The reason for this situation is related to the event organizers.
Before dawn, the organizing committee baited and sank around each fishing boat to attract large fish from the seabed.
It is said that a total of 30,000 catties of bait were released this time, and each fishing boat was given 1,000 catties of mackerel as bait. This is why so many big fish were attracted.
The tournament organizers must have invested at least several hundred thousand yuan to create a favorable fishing environment for the participants.
It was through this point that Bai Yu finally understood why the competition organizers dared to classify the great white shark as a special fish species.
It turns out they were prepared beforehand, using bait to attract big fish. Even if they couldn't attract a great white shark, they could still attract other big fish, so they wouldn't lose out either way.
As for the lucky ones who manage to catch a great white shark, the extra 500 pounds is the best reward for them.
There's a saying that's always been circulating in Bai Yu's company: luck is also a form of ability.
That's why special fish species were included in this competition to boost scores—a special privilege for lucky winners!
