"Of course! Look who's going out to sea!"
Ah-chan looked smug.
"Oh ho, look at you, so capable! You're only doing this because of Ah Ye."
Feng Jiafa shook his head.
After saying a few more words, they began weighing and calculating the accounts.
Today's main catch was small green lobsters, which were caught using traps and diving, totaling 75.3 jin (37.9 catties); while sea cucumbers were relatively fewer, only 28.4 jin (14.2 catties).
For the first two or three times, Xiao Qinglong would wait until Feng Jiafa sold out before taking a 5% cut of the bill, but later it became cash payment, with a price of 8.5 yuan.
As for the sea cucumbers, the same old procedure applied; they were simply given a receipt indicating the different sizes and weights.
In addition, other miscellaneous fish, shrimp and crabs sold for a total of 385 yuan.
Today I received a total of 1025 RMB in cash, plus a receipt for sea cucumbers of unknown amount.
"Uncle Fa, there are three more big guys on the boat. Let's go help carry them."
After counting the money and confirming that everything was correct, Feng Ye pointed towards the dock.
"There's more? Or something big?"
Feng Jiafa was very surprised after hearing this and quickly asked, "What kind of big guy?"
“A blue shark,” Feng Ye replied calmly.
"What? A blue shark?"
Feng Jiafa's eyes widened, and he continued to ask incredulously, "How did you catch it?"
It's important to know that blue sharks are warm-water, mid-to-upper-level fish, and generally, bottom trawls can't catch them, so it's no wonder that Feng Jiafa had this question.
At this moment, Ah-Can couldn't wait to interject and answer, "They weren't caught, they flew up on their own."
As he spoke, the smug look on his face was palpable.
"You think it's fun to make fun of me, right?"
The Feng family would not easily believe such an outrageous thing.
Whether the fish actively jump onto the fishing boat or accidentally jump on it for various reasons, it is a common sight, and fishermen encounter them from time to time.
However, the great blue shark is definitely not included in this list.
Feng Jiafa was quite clear about this.
"Ah-chan didn't lie to you. To be precise, it was a gift from an orca."
Feng Ye said this as he walked outside.
"What? A gift from an orca? How is that possible?"
Upon hearing this, Feng Jiafa was immediately astonished and even more surprised.
That's definitely true...
Immediately afterwards, Ah-chan began to vividly recount their encounter with the orcas over the past two days.
After hearing what Ah-Can said, Feng Jiafa was stunned and couldn't help but exclaim, "Wow, you guys have really had a lot of experiences these past two days. You can brag about it for a lifetime."
"hey-hey……"
Accompanied by Ah-chan's laughter, the three of them soon arrived at the nearby dock and boarded the Rising Sun.
"These three sharks are huge."
Upon entering the cabin, Feng Jiafa's gaze was immediately drawn to the three large blue sharks inside.
"How much does this shark cost?" Ah-Can couldn't help but ask.
Feng Jiafa thought for a moment and said, "As you all know, the real value of a shark isn't its meat, but its fins, right?"
Feng Ye and A-Can both nodded to indicate that they understood.
Then, Feng Jiafa continued, "I've never bought this big blue shark before, so it's hard to set a price. How about we do it the old way?"
“Okay, no problem.” Feng Ye readily agreed.
"Okay, let's move it to my shop to weigh it first, and I'll give you a receipt."
So the three of them worked together and it took them a lot of effort to move the three large blue sharks out of the cabin, and with the help of the ship's crane, they lifted them off the ship and then moved them onto a cart.
After arriving at the store and being weighed, the weights of the three blue sharks were revealed – 326 jin, 105 jin, and 195 jin respectively.
Feng Jiafa then issued the corresponding receipt and handed it to Feng Ye, who put it away, said goodbye, and then left with A-Can pushing the cart.
