I caught a bluefin tuna weighing over 200 pounds, and the fish I caught after that were also quite big, so it was quite tiring.
Therefore, as soon as Feng Ye's head hit the pillow, he would fall asleep like a log within a minute or two.
Even in his sleep, he was still fighting against those giant sea monsters.
Every swing was accompanied by a racing heartbeat, and every time he reeled in the line, he felt the joy of victory.
Just as he was flipping a huge, round, and heavy bluefin fin that weighed a thousand pounds onto the surface of the sea.
He woke up.
I was woken up by Xiao Chen.
"My precious bluefin fin, couldn't you have called me a few minutes later?"
Feng Ye reluctantly opened his eyes, looking at Xiao Chen standing by the boat with a resentful expression.
"Mr. Feng, it's 11:30. I made some late-night snacks, so I thought I'd wake you up early to eat something."
Xiao Chen's voice carried a hint of apology.
"Xiao Chen, thank you for your thoughtfulness."
Feng Ye was stunned for a moment, then gave a wry smile and sat up from the bed.
The massive blue fin in the dream vanished instantly, replaced by the slight rocking of the ship in reality.
He rubbed his eyes, quickly put on his clothes, and walked out of the small bedroom.
Hao Aiguo had already gotten up and was eating, but Qin Aijun was nowhere to be seen.
The late-night snack consisted of seafood porridge and steamed goldeneye sea bass, the aroma of which was irresistible and made one's mouth water.
This golden-eyed bass was the smallest one we caught, but it still weighed over six pounds. We only steamed half of it.
Feng Ye sat down and asked while eating, "Where's President Qin? Why isn't he here?"
"Old Qin wants to sleep and won't get up, so let the two of us go fishing."
"Oh, it seems you're exhausted and haven't recovered yet."
"Yeah, I don't think he'll be able to go fishing tomorrow. He looks exhausted, and his arms will definitely hurt terribly when he wakes up tomorrow."
"Very likely."
Feng Ye nodded.
Qin Aijun looks like he's used to a life of luxury and definitely lacks exercise.
Excessive exercise can lead to lactic acid buildup, which will definitely cause some pain.
After eating and drinking their fill, the two lit a cigarette, rested for a while, and then prepared to start fishing.
Stepping onto the deck, a sea breeze greeted us, carrying the unique freshness and coolness of the night.
Feng Ye took a deep breath and immediately felt refreshed.
With Qin Aijun gone, there were four more fishing rods, so two were given to each person.
Once you've baited each fishing rod and cast it into the sea, all that's left is to wait patiently.
The sea shimmered under the moonlight, as if it were covered with silver fragments.
Feng Ye stood quietly on the deck, his eyes fixed on the sea, afraid of missing any slight movement.
Time passed by, and everything around seemed so peaceful and serene.
Suddenly, the fishing rod dipped sharply, and Feng Ye immediately realized that a fish had taken the bait!
He quickly gripped the fishing rod, jerked it upwards to hook the fish, and immediately felt a tremendous force coming from underwater, almost pulling him into the sea before he could react.
"Holy crap, it's huge?"
Feng Ye was surprised.
He braced himself against the gunwale, steadyed himself, and began his struggle against the unknown giant fish.
"The fish have taken the bait so quickly."
Seeing this, Hao Aiguo quickly walked to Feng Ye's side and asked nervously and excitedly, "How big is it? Could it be a moonfish?"
While dealing with the large fish, Feng Ye replied, "I don't know, but it's quite strong, I feel it must weigh at least a hundred pounds."
He gritted his teeth, his arm muscles taut like steel cables, every bit of strength concentrated in the fishing rod in his hand.
Reel in, release, reel in, release...
It alternates repeatedly.
After a fierce struggle, a large fish was dragged to the side of the yacht, bobbing up and down.
"What a huge fish! Is this the Moonfish? But why does it look so fierce? It doesn't live up to its name at all!"
Hao Aiguo, who had just pulled up a small fish, stared wide-eyed at the enormous creature covered in bluish-black spots, his heart filled with doubt and curiosity.
This fish is large and strong, with a huge, oval-shaped, laterally compressed body and scales that shimmer with a cold luster.
Especially his eyes, which were incredibly sharp, revealing a sense of majesty and power, and his overall appearance was like that of a ruler of the ocean.
Feng Ye shook his head: "This is not a moonfish, but a giant grouper."
This is the second giant grouper he has caught.
Last time it was a small baby cat, weighing only about 50 pounds.
This is the first baby, weighing a little over 100 pounds.
"So it wasn't a moonfish after all!"
Hao Aiguo's tone was full of disappointment.
"The grouper is also good; it's a type of grouper, and the price is quite good."
Feng Ye explained, "Moreover, these fish are generally very large, growing to several hundred kilograms."
"Oh, really?"
Hao Aiguo's knowledge of sea fish is very limited, so it's normal that he doesn't recognize them.
He didn't need to worry about the fish he caught; Qin Aijun took care of everything. He was completely clueless about the actual prices of the fish.
He didn't even think about finding out.
After all, as the saying goes, it's good to be confused sometimes, isn't it?
After looking around, he returned to his spot and kept a close eye on the movement of his fishing rod.
The giant grouper struggled a couple of times while it was hanging in mid-air.
But it was merely a last gasp, a final burst of energy before it died down.
Even if it isn't killed, it will die quickly due to its internal organs exploding.
Feng Ye was kind-hearted and couldn't bear to see it suffer.
Therefore, they made a cut on its gills, pectoral fins, and tail to free it.
As he bled the giant grouper to remove uric acid, Hao Aiguo's fishing rod trembled again.
The fish pulled up wasn't big, weighing less than ten pounds, but it was quite valuable.
Because it has a mouse-like spot.
This is the peak feeding season for grouper.
Hao Aiguo didn't recognize the rat-spotted mouse, so Feng Ye naturally had to give him another explanation.
However, he did not mention the price, and even when Hao Aiguo asked, he simply said he didn't know.
He could sell them for 200 yuan each, so he really couldn't imagine what price Qin Aijun would offer Hao Aiguo.
Are you suggesting we double the amount to 400 yuan?
Think about it, maybe that's possible.
Their relationship was, in essence, a disguised one...
At this moment, Feng Ye really hoped that he could also catch a grouper and get a sky-high price.
But it's just wishful thinking.
Most groupers are solitary fish and generally do not live in groups except during the breeding season.
Therefore, it is unlikely that two rat spots will appear in the same sea area.
And that was indeed the case; he didn't see a second grouper until he packed up his line.
As for the moonfish, I don't know what stroke of luck they had, but they actually managed to catch one.
