The strap isn't hard to pull out, but it's not easy either; it still takes some effort.
After all, this thing has a full set of silk threads and is fixed to the seabed.
In just over ten minutes, the net he had taken down was full.
The capacity is limited, and the strap is large, so it can't hold too much.
In reality, there weren't many, only about 30, less than 40.
However, it is quite heavy.
Each one weighs around one pound, and together they must weigh more than thirty pounds.
Looking at the overflowing net, Feng Ye couldn't help but feel a surge of joy.
He scanned the area but couldn't find Ah-chan within sight, and had no idea where she had gotten into the water.
He didn't even think about looking for it, and turned around to swim out to sea.
The net should remain on the seabed; there's no need to go through the trouble of bringing it to the surface.
He was prepared; the rope was long enough. Once everyone was on board, he would pull them onto the boat.
The small net was a waste; we only saw some small fish and shrimp on this trip, and didn't find anything worth catching.
Upon emerging from the water, it was discovered that the Rising Sun was quite far away, more than twenty meters away.
It's not surprising, really. When he went into the water, the anchor had just been lowered and hadn't even gripped the seabed yet, so there was bound to be some displacement.
He quickly swam over, grabbed the gunwale, climbed aboard, and then pulled the net straps that were still on the seabed onto the boat.
It was already a bit chilly in the early morning, and with all that seawater on me, the sea breeze made it even more icy.
Feng Ye quickly crawled into the cabin, hastily wiped the seawater off his body with a towel, and put on his clothes.
After each dive, you need to rest for a sufficient amount of time; you cannot dive continuously.
I can finally take advantage of my break time to prepare breakfast.
Since there weren't any side dishes available, he took out a few scallops to prepare.
At this time, the gonads of the sagittarian tadpoles are mature, but they have not yet reproduced, making them plump and delicious.
If it's another month or so, the scallops will start to reproduce, consuming a lot of nutrients, causing the flesh to become thinner and the taste to suffer.
Just as they killed the belt and removed the meat pillar, Ah-Can appeared from not far from the side of the boat.
"How is it? How much did you pull out?"
"It weighs about 30 kilograms, anyway, it's full."
As he spoke, Ah-chan threw the rope of the net onto the boat, and then climbed onto the boat using both his hands and feet.
"It's chilly in the morning, hurry up and put on some clothes."
As Feng Ye spoke, he took the rope and pulled it up little by little.
Before long, a large bag of dark, murky straps was hauled onto the boat.
They are all large, almost all of them are bigger than the palm of your hand.
He said with delight, "It seems there are quite a lot of strips underneath, and the area is quite large."
"Hmm, I estimate that collecting several thousand kilograms wouldn't be a problem at all."
Ah-chan wiped the seawater off his body, his face beaming with joy.
Feng Ye poured the contents of the net into the basket with a splashing sound, and then saw that there were several scallops and conches inside.
Did you find anything else?
"I saw them as soon as I went into the water, so I picked them up. I also encountered a small group of mantis shrimp, but unfortunately I didn't bring a net with me, so I could only watch them slip away."
"That's a real shame."
Feng Ye couldn't help but feel a little regretful.
What a shame!
He shook his head: "I did bring a net, but I didn't find anything."
After Ah-chan got dressed, he joined in the work.
Scallops and whelks are very easy to prepare; you just need to clean the shells and then put them in a pot to cook.
The two of them busied themselves for a while and then prepared breakfast.
Simple rice noodles, paired with fresh scallops, sea snails, and conch, taste quite good.
"These scallops are really good, they're fresh and sweet, and have a chewy texture."
As Feng Ye ate, he couldn't help but praise it.
"It is indeed very fresh, but there is not much meat. There is only one bite of meat in each scallop."
The scallop has a huge outer shell, but only the meat is edible.
Unlike scallops, which can be eaten entirely except for the shell.
Of course, it's best to remove the black substance from the scallop meat.
That's the scallop's digestive gland, which contains a lot of food residue and may contain harmful substances such as heavy metals and toxins.
After having breakfast and resting for a sufficient amount of time, the two of them resumed work.
After several intermittent trips back and forth, Ah Can couldn't wait to say as soon as he boarded the boat, "Brother Ye, I've found a shipwreck..."
"A shipwreck? There's a shipwreck down there?"
Feng Ye stared in surprise.
"Yeah, I saw it by chance, and I was surprised too. I was thinking of going over to take a look, but I thought I'd come up first and we can go together next time."
"What era is it from? What kind of ship is it? A fishing boat or a cargo ship?"
"It's a wooden boat. I can see the mast. It's at least several decades old. And it's quite big. It doesn't look like a fishing boat."
"So it's very likely a cargo ship?"
"I think so, but I don't know if there's any treasure on board."
"Once we've rested, we'll dive down and see. But seawater is very corrosive, so even if we find treasures, apart from gold, silver, and porcelain, the rest will probably be useless."
"If only we had gold and silver, we wouldn't regret it if the rest were useless."
Ah-Can rubbed his hands together, drool practically dripping from his mouth, his heart filled with anticipation.
At that moment, he remembered the gold bars he had retrieved last year; he had received 15 of them.
If they catch another batch, they'll have to worry about where to hide them.
However, when it comes to gold, who would complain about having too much? Of course, the more the better!
"Yes, if there really is gold and silver, we'll be rich."
Feng Ye nodded, equally filled with anticipation.
I didn't expect that after a day of not going out to sea, I would have such a pleasant surprise today.
At the same time, he couldn't help but feel grateful that he had given his father and Uncle Ling two sets of diving equipment.
It was because they found this area of sea covered with ribbons that he and Ah-Can decided to dive down and pull out the ribbons today.
Otherwise, you would have missed this shipwreck on the seabed.
However, whether there is any treasure on this ship is still unknown; we will have to dive down to find out.
I just hope I won't disappoint myself and Ah-chan.
He scanned the surrounding sea: "Luckily, there are no ships operating nearby, so if there is any treasure, it will be convenient for us to bring it onto the ship."
Ah-chan chuckled and said, "I can't wait to go and see the seabed."
"No rush, your health is the most important thing."
Feng Ye patted A-Can on the shoulder and instructed, "You just went diving, so make sure you rest well before diving again."
Ah-chan nodded repeatedly: "Don't worry, I understand, I won't act recklessly."
It's not as cool as it was in the morning, so there's no need to put on clothes.
Both of them were only wearing underwear, lying on the deck, basking in the sun and taking the opportunity to rest and recover their strength.
