Feng Ye didn't care; it didn't matter who pulled him. As long as he was stuck, he couldn't possibly run away.
"I'll pull the third net later."
"Then I'll draw the last one."
Upon hearing Feng Ye's words, Ah Can and Xiao Guowu immediately echoed his excitement.
Soon, the second net started catching fish, starting with a large fish weighing a full four pounds, followed by a continuous stream of fish being pulled up.
Suddenly, Xiao Guowen paused in pulling the net.
Upon seeing this, Feng Ye quickly asked, "What's wrong?"
Xiao Guowen said with heartache, "The fishing net is torn."
Feng Ye subconsciously said, "So what if it's broken...?"
The continuous catch of fish extinguished Feng Ye's initial excitement, leaving him somewhat numb. He only remembered halfway through his sentence that they were catching large yellow croakers, and exclaimed in surprise, "The fishing net is torn?"
"The fishing net is torn? Where is it torn?"
"How did it break?"
When Ah-Can and Xiao-Guo-Wu heard that the fishing net was torn, they didn't even bother with the fish anymore and rushed over.
"There's a huge hole in it."
As he spoke, Xiao Guowen pulled up the fishing net.
There was a huge hole in the fishing net, nearly 20 centimeters in diameter.
That's not all. Perhaps the fish got stuck and struggled violently, causing the fishing nets around the hole to become a mess and tangled together, even the weights were thrown up.
"How big must this fish be to create such a large hole?"
They were all heartbroken that a big fish had escaped.
But there's no other way; when fishing with gillnets, it's inevitable that some large fish will break free.
"Let them run away, let's keep pulling the net."
This hole seemed to be a harbinger, as soon as one hole after another appeared on the second net.
The group was heartbroken.
How many fish must have gotten away!
Overall, the second net has fewer strands than the first, but they are generally larger, although the total weight is not much different.
Then the third and fourth nets were pulled up one after another.
The situation was similar to the second net, with holes of varying sizes appearing, and the weight and number of holes were also similar.
Of the four nets, only the first one was tidied up and still usable; the other three were essentially unusable.
But compared to the large yellow croaker that was pulled up, what does it matter if they are all ruined?
Although the large yellow croakers they caught were only a small part of the school of fish, and most of them escaped, which they found regrettable, they were still content.
Such good fortune is something you can only dream of, not something you can ask for.
Everyone was excited to see the small wooden boat full of large yellow croakers, which were covered by clothes and pants.
"Besides us, I haven't heard of anyone else catching so many cucumber fish?"
"Haha, we have to thank Brother Ye. It was Brother Ye who invited us out to sea and insisted on casting nets. Otherwise, we would never have encountered these yellow croakers, and who knows who would have benefited from them?"
“Ah Ye must have prayed to Mazu before setting off, which is why he had such good luck, and we all got rich because of him.”
"I'm rich..."
