Chapter 532 Xiao Guowen's Depression



As Feng Ye pulled in the net, he looked back over his shoulder.

This net wasn't entirely filled with red snapper, but they made up the majority, and I estimate it weighed a little over 100 pounds.

The size is very uniform, each weighing between one and two pounds.

The rest were small, miscellaneous fish, weighing around thirty or forty pounds each.

He said with a hint of envy, "You're really lucky; you actually caught a school of fish in your net."

"Bullshit, he just got lucky."

Ah-chan was very unconvinced.

Xiao Guowen laughed loudly: "Haha, you're all just envious and jealous. You're only fit to catch small fry."

"Don't be so smug. Watch me scoop up a giant cucumber, and it'll wipe you out in a second."

"Anyone can brag, just like Ah Ye did just now, but unfortunately his bragging backfired."

"Damn it, why are you two dragging me into this bickering? I didn't say anything."

Feng Ye glared at Xiao Guowen with displeasure.

He's having a bit of bad luck today and is feeling down.

I've cast my net several times, but I haven't caught any valuable fish, let alone any schools of fish.

Although each net contains a considerable amount of fish, weighing over 40 or 50 kilograms, they are mostly small, miscellaneous fish.

Most of the fish jumping around on the sea surface are small, miscellaneous fish; large fish are relatively rare.

It's quite difficult to catch a whole net full of big fish.

"What's wrong? You got a problem with that? Who told you to be the first to brag?"

"I……"

Feng Ye suddenly widened his eyes and then burst into laughter.

"Haha, bragging? Where did I brag? Look at this!"

He pointed to the net that had been pulled onto the boat, extremely pleased with himself.

Everyone turned to look, and they were all stunned.

"Holy crap! A giant cucumber, it really is a giant cucumber!"

"What a huge cucumber! It must weigh over three pounds!"

"Four catties, it should be four catties. This one of mine is worth much more than the red fish you caught in your net, Brother Wen."

Feng Ye caught the large yellow croaker, weighed it in his hand, and couldn't stop smiling.

The only downside is that this large yellow croaker was caught during the day, so its color isn't golden.

"Damn, there's no dog poop on this boat for you to step in, how come you're so lucky?"

Xiao Guowen was depressed.

My good mood from catching a popular snapper was instantly ruined.

Sigh, it's all my fault for saying that one more thing.

Otherwise, I wouldn't have been bullied by Feng Ye.

However, what frustrated him even more was yet to come.

Just as Feng Ye was proudly showing off his large yellow croaker, good news also came from A-Can's side.

Wow, I caught a big one!

Ah-chan shouted excitedly, his voice filled with undisguised joy.

How big is the shipment?

What kind of goods?

"What kind of fish? How much does it weigh?"

Feng Ye and the other two asked hurriedly.

But Xiao Guowen poured cold water on the idea: "It's either a shark or a rotten carp."

"Hehe, Brother Wen, I'm afraid I'm afraid I'll have to disappoint you."

Ah-Can said smugly, "This fish I caught can't compare to Brother Ye's big cucumber, but it's much better than that red fish."

Feng Ye urged, "Stop talking nonsense, just tell me what kind of fish it is? How big is it?"

Xiao Yunhu answered for A-Can: "It's a large red stripe."

He was standing on the same side as Ah-Can, and he saw the fish as soon as it surfaced.

"That's right, it's a big red croaker, quite large, probably weighing sixty or seventy pounds."

As Ah-Can spoke, he pulled up the net, and a brightly colored, round and slender fish was dragged onto the deck.

"Another guy who got lucky."

Xiao Guowen muttered something, not wanting to look at their irritating faces anymore, and focused on closing the net.

But the laughter and cheers that reached my ears could not be blocked out.

Feng Ye glanced at it briefly, then stopped paying attention.

Judging by his size, he definitely weighs around 60 or 70 pounds.

Da Zhanghong and his team had caught these fish many times, and while they weren't the smallest, they weren't exactly top-tier either.

Don't forget, they once caught a large red snapper weighing over 200 kilograms.

But Xiao Yunhu and Du Minhui were dazzled by what they saw.

Big red jasmine isn't cheap; one this big can easily sell for two or even three yuan.

Just this one item is worth about two hundred yuan.

How could we not excite them?

Xiao Yunhu ran to the bow of the boat: "Aye, Aye, let me cast the net a few times."

"Alright, you can play with it for a bit."

Feng Ye had hauled in several nets, and his arms were starting to ache, so he went along with it and handed over the hand net.

As soon as Xiao Yunhu took the hand-throwing net, he couldn't wait to tidy it up and then quickly threw it out.

The results were not ideal; let alone good or large fish, there were only five common fish of slightly larger size.

However, he did not get discouraged and continued to work hard.

Feng Ye, meanwhile, carried Xiao Yunhu's net and scooped things up from the sea, one dip at a time.

Although most of what we catch are small, miscellaneous fish, we occasionally manage to catch one or two slightly larger ones.

As for these small fry, they're better than nothing.

Spring is almost over, the weather is gradually improving, and it won't rain often, so you can take it back and dry it into dried fish.

Of course, you also need to choose.

Not all small fish can be dried; for example, herring cannot.
