After more than two hours of sailing, the Rising Sun finally returned to the outside of Dongtou Village Wharf.
The wind was still howling, and the waves had grown larger.
Although it was still early and the sun had just set, the sea was full of fishing boats returning home.
"It looks like everyone rushed back."
"The sea is rough, who wouldn't be afraid? Hurry up, before many ships dock, let's sell our goods quickly, so we don't have to wait in line."
There were quite a few people on the dock, all of whom had noticed the unusual weather and were waiting for their fishing boats to return.
However, not many boats have docked, and some have already sold out of fish.
There was no one selling goods in Feng Jiafa's shop, so he rushed over to help when he saw the Xuri ship dock.
As soon as he jumped onto the boat, he couldn't wait to ask, "How much cargo did we catch today? Did we catch anything good?"
"It's alright, there are only eight small green dragons, a golden mackerel weighing about 70 jin, a black mullet weighing about 500 jin, and a few other miscellaneous fish."
Feng Jiafa exclaimed in surprise, "You guys are incredibly lucky! Your harvest is much better than everyone else's!"
"Haven't things always been like this?"
That statement was full of pretentiousness.
"We know you guys are powerful, alright?"
Feng Jiafa gave a perfunctory answer and started searching the boat, asking, "Where are the goods? Where are my little lobster and big golden mackerel?"
"Damn, how did it become your product?"
Feng Ye rolled his eyes and continued, "On the way back, the ship was rocking too much, so we put it in the cabin."
"Tch, it'll be my goods soon, it's just being held by you temporarily."
Feng sent a message back, then turned and went into the cabin.
He spotted the golden mackerel lying on the ground at a glance; it was indeed quite large.
His height of nearly 1.5 meters is exciting to look at.
Big fish are rare; they can only be caught occasionally, depending on luck, and even then, they might not end up in his hands.
"Uncle Fa, how much is this fish?"
As soon as Ah-Can stepped into the cabin, he asked the question.
This is what he cares about most.
"Considering how big it is, I can give you 1.8 yuan."
"So low?"
"That's not low at all. Just this one fish is more than what others catch in a whole day. Aren't you satisfied? Come on, let's carry it down together."
"Um."
Feng Ye didn't participate in the bargaining, thinking the price was acceptable.
In those days, this fish could only fetch a high price from the Japanese.
Moreover, having cooperated with Feng Jiafa for so long, the prices he has always offered have always been good, so I don't think he would deliberately lower the price this time.
As they moved and unloaded the goods, they chatted for a bit and asked the others how their haul was going.
The ships that have already returned did not have as many hauls as they did.
The largest ship they owned was less than a third of theirs.
Presumably, the situation is similar for those ships that have not yet docked.
Unless a boat is lucky enough to stumble upon a large school of fish and catches a ton of fish.
It's not impossible, but the probability is incredibly small.
They were lucky today, encountering a school of mullet; otherwise, their harvest wouldn't have been this good—probably less than half.
And that is indeed the case.
The mullet alone weighed 568 jin (284 catties). Although the unit price is low, currently only 8 mao (0.8 yuan), it still amounts to 454.4 yuan.
All the other miscellaneous fish, shrimp, and crabs, including the golden mackerel, only sold for 387.7 yuan.
Of course, there were also about 300 kilograms of toadfish, as well as some other small fish and shrimp that were not sold.
If you sell them all, you'll get around 500 yuan.
