Today, Feng Ye didn't lie down on the deck as soon as he boarded the ship, but stayed in the wheelhouse.
He thought about investing in Xiao Zhaojun's large ship all night and came up with some issues that needed to be discussed.
As soon as A-Can arrived, Feng Xuan couldn't wait to tell him about investing.
When Ah Can heard that Feng Ye had also joined and held three shares, he agreed without hesitation.
Feng Ye glanced at the two men and got straight to the point: "There are some issues I need to discuss with you regarding investing in Uncle Jun's large ship."
Ah-Can quickly said, "Brother Ye, please speak, I'm listening."
Feng Xuan also said, "Aye, just say it."
Feng Ye considered for a moment and slowly said, "I have invested in three shares, you all have one share, and Uncle Jun's family has six shares. I don't know exactly how the father and son divide the shares, but they are family after all, so he will be in charge of the daily operation and management of this ship."
Ah-Can nodded: "That's for sure. His family contributed the most, so naturally the boat is under his control."
"My idea is that since we've put in the money, we can't just sit idly by. After all, our money didn't grow on trees."
Ah Can paused for a moment, looking at Feng Ye with some confusion: "Brother Ye, do you mean we have to go on board and work too?"
Feng Ye nodded: "Yes, at least one of the three of us needs to be on that ship."
"No need, Uncle Jun is a trustworthy person."
Feng Xuan frowned.
"That's right. Besides, given our relationship with Brother Wen and Brother Wu, they would never cheat us."
Ah-chan chimed in.
"This isn't a matter of trust or distrust; it's that someone must be on board to supervise. Even close brothers keep clear accounts; no matter how close the relationship, money cannot be handled carelessly."
Feng Ye glanced at the two of them and shook his head slightly.
Their relationship was indeed very good, but that was based on the absence of any mutual benefit.
However, the situation soon changed.
There might not be any problems in the short term, but what about in the long run?
Since ancient times, self-interest has been the most tempting thing to people.
You can't judge a book by its cover; he couldn't guarantee they wouldn't change.
It is common for fathers and sons, brothers, and friends to turn against each other for the sake of interests; there are countless examples of this.
He didn't want to gamble with other people's consciences.
"Ah Ye is right. We need to calculate things more carefully, otherwise we might not even know if we get scammed."
Feng Xuan thought for a moment and nodded.
A large ship can go to sea for two or three days at the least, and ten days or half a month at most. If the fish are sold at sea and the receipt is thrown away, you really don't know anything about it.
Ah-chan hesitated and asked, "Is this necessary?"
Feng Ye said decisively, "Yes."
"Well... okay."
Ah-chan scratched his head, but finally nodded.
"Furthermore, those who go on that ship will also need to learn how to operate a large ship and how to use various equipment."
The ship, which is over 30 meters long, certainly has more equipment and is more complex to operate than the Rising Sun.
Feng Ye wasn't confident he could operate everything.
After all, there are many things these days that he may never have even seen, let alone operated.
"We'll have to upgrade to a bigger ship someday; we can't stay in this small boat forever, can we?"
Ah-Can was taken aback: "Now that you put it that way, it's much easier for me to accept."
Feng Ye couldn't help but shake his head. It seemed that A-Can was still very naive and had not experienced the harsh realities of society.
"You guys discuss it and decide who should go."
"Brother Ye, why aren't you going?"
"I am the major shareholder of the Rising Sun, so of course I have to protect my ship."
Feng Ye pursed his lips, "Of course, if you can guarantee that the fish caught by the Rising Sun can sell for more than 500 yuan a day, I wouldn't mind going."
"Then forget it, I don't have your luck."
Ah-Can shrank his neck.
"I'll go, let Ah-Can stay."
After thinking for a moment, Feng Xuan took the initiative to bring it up.
"this……"
Ah-chan was a little embarrassed, looking quite awkward.
Feng Ye nodded slightly: "Okay, then you go, brother. Learn well from Uncle Jun. When we get a bigger ship in the future, you'll be our captain."
Ah-chan chuckled: "Brother Xuan, you'd better work hard and strive to become a captain as soon as possible. Then I'll be one of your soldiers."
Feng Xuan glared at him: "Isn't that the case now? Come and start the boat."
"..."
With a helpless expression, Ah-Can walked to the driver's seat and took over the driving duties of the Rising Sun.
Feng Ye raised other details, and the topic was only brought up after discussion.
...
The Rising Sun cruised for nearly two hours before finally arriving at its destination.
The sky was beginning to lighten, signaling the start of a new day.
Standing on the deck, Feng Ye felt the cool sea breeze on his face, his heart filled with anticipation and excitement.
As usual, I'll start by reeling in the longline.
They arrive at their destination precisely at dawn each day, so they can catch a wave of longline fishing first.
Finding a longline fishing float in the dark is extremely difficult, almost like looking for a needle in a haystack.
After hooking the buoy up, Feng Ye pulled on the main line and began to retrieve it.
I was lucky today; I caught a fish on my first try. Although it was just a red sea bream, it was still a good start.
"One red sea bream, a good start."
Feng Ye pulled the fish up and left it alone, leaving A-Can and Feng Xuan to untangle it, bait it, and throw it back into the sea.
Ah-Can skillfully took the fish, untied it, thought for a moment, and threw it into the live water tank.
The red sea bream wasn't originally qualified to be in the live water tank, but for the sake of the first one, let's reluctantly let it live a little longer.
