Finally, the Rising Sun docked.
A large crowd of people on the dock swarmed over.
If there are people you know well or have a good relationship with, you can step forward and lend a hand.
Other people who weren't very familiar with the group chattered and asked all sorts of questions.
"You were gone for so long this time, you must have had a great time, right? How much did you make?"
"Judging from how happy they are, they must have made a lot of money, possibly over ten thousand."
"Very likely, but such a large ship must consume a lot of oil..."
"What kind of fish are in these baskets? Are they all miscellaneous fish?"
"All we see are small, insignificant fish and shrimp. Is it really possible that no valuables were brought back?"
"It's also possible that the best stuff is hidden underneath..."
No matter how much these people talked, none of the people on the Rising Sun uttered a sound.
They were all busy unloading goods and had no time to pay attention to them.
There are over a hundred baskets; it'll keep us busy for quite a while.
"Ah Fa, Ah Fa, come out and receive the goods."
Someone who was unaware of the situation shouted towards Feng Jiafa's purchasing point.
Feng Jiafa also saw the baskets piled up on the Xuri ship, but he hadn't held out much hope.
This isn't the first time the Harvest Ship has returned; they've never reserved any goods for him to sell before.
He can understand.
After all, it takes a lot of fuel to ship so many goods back on a special trip.
However, the village's dock is not deep enough, so large ships cannot dock and transferring goods is also troublesome.
When large ships return from the sea, they usually choose a dock in a nearby county or town to disembark and sell their goods.
This way, we can make more money and save on fuel.
The same applies to the Harvest Ship and the other large boats in the village; no one would specifically reserve cargo to sell.
When Feng Jiafa heard the shouts, a glimmer of hope still welled up in his heart.
He quickly weighed the man's goods and paid him the bill.
Then he pushed the cart that Feng Ye had placed next to his shop and hurried toward the dock.
He knew it might be a bit far-fetched, but what if it worked?
What if things are different this time?
When he arrived at the dock, many baskets had already been unloaded and were filled with miscellaneous fish and shrimp.
Disillusionment shattered!
He shouted angrily into the crowd, "Who the hell is shouting like that? Talking nonsense."
Of course, no one responded to him.
He was just about to go back to the shop to keep watch when he saw Feng Ye waving.
"Uncle Fa, since you're here, why don't you lend a hand?"
Feng Ye had already seen Feng Jiafa arrive and even pushed his cart over.
There's free labor available, so why not take advantage of it?
"With so many of you, do you really need my help?"
Feng Jiafa glared at him and said, "Besides, don't I have to watch the shop? If someone steals something, you're going to compensate me?"
Ah-Can picked up the conversation, saying, "Uncle Jun and the others didn't keep any for themselves, but Ye-ge and I do. If you..."
He didn't continue speaking, but just chuckled.
"Damn, is this all you can threaten me with?"
"Just tell me, are you going to help or not?"
"I'll help, okay? I'll go close the shop first."
"Okay, hurry up."
Feng Jiafa went and returned quickly, and even brought his own cart over.
"Make way, make way..."
He kept shouting to the crowd, pushing his cart to the side of the Rising Sun, and diligently loading the unloaded baskets onto the cart.
In just a few moments, both carts were full.
"Father, Uncle Ling, Brother, A-Can, you push these two carts over there to kill the animals, and we'll continue unloading."
There are still some trawler catches from today on the Rising Sun, but they're all in the hold. We need to unload these small fish and shrimp from the deck first.
Moreover, he has to stay here and oversee the sales.
"good."
After the two carts were pushed away, they immediately continued unloading goods.
There are over a hundred baskets; it's not something that can be unloaded in a few minutes.
The crowd of onlookers never stopped talking.
Although no one paid them any attention, they didn't feel embarrassed and continued talking to themselves.
"We've already unloaded dozens of baskets, and they're all just miscellaneous fish..."
"And small shrimp..."
“We’ve left some back before, but never this many!”
"That's right, and they used to not want so much themselves, they would share it with others..."
"Hey, look, Feng Laosan and the others are heading towards the beach. Could these fish be what A-Ye wants?"
"It seems so. Ah Ye and the others are already collecting miscellaneous fish and drying them, so these will come in handy."
"Ah Ye, did you already have this idea in mind and tell them beforehand, which is why you deliberately left so many back?"
Feng Ye heard this, but didn't want to waste his breath.
Once he gets started, countless problems will await him.
Wouldn't it be better to use that time to move one more basket of goods?
After all the miscellaneous fish and shrimp on the deck were unloaded onto the dock, he and Ah-Can began unloading their cargo for the day.
"Damn, this is all the goods you've managed to deliver again?"
Feng Jiafa followed Feng Ye into the cabin, and was greatly disappointed upon seeing it.
"What, you think it's too little? Then we won't sell it to you. Old Zhu or Old Lin would definitely be happy to buy it."
Although he knew Feng Ye was teasing him, Feng Jiafa quickly shook his head and waved his hands, saying, "No, no, no, Ah Ye, I was just joking."
Feng Ye chuckled inwardly: "I thought you thought it wasn't enough?"
"How could that be? Even a mosquito's leg is meat,"
Feng Jiafa said with a forced smile, "Didn't you always have such good luck before? It was always schools of fish or big, rare catches. Why are there so few fish lately?"
