"Okay, I got it. I'll take the boat. I'll contact them later to see if the seafood collection boat can get here this afternoon."
"Okay, you should contact them first. It would be best if they could be collected today. If they wait until tomorrow, the fish hold won't be able to hold them all, and they'll just be piled up on the deck."
In cold winter weather, it's actually fine to pile them on the deck.
But it was summer, and the temperature was very high, so the fish piled on the deck would easily spoil and become stale.
They had brought out very little ice left; it was almost used up.
"Yes, when I make the contact, I will try my best to get the cargo ship here as quickly as possible."
"Okay, I'm going to take a nap, otherwise I'll be sleepy tonight."
Feng Ye yawned and turned to walk towards the sleeping pods at the back.
"Wait a moment."
Feng Jialing called out to him.
"Is there anything else, Uncle?"
Feng Ye turned around and looked at Feng Jialing with a puzzled expression.
Have you discussed with Ah-chan when you plan to go back?
Today is the fourth day at sea, the 29th day of the fourth lunar month. Tomorrow will be the first day of the new year.
When we first set sail, we only said we would get back before the Dragon Boat Festival, but we didn't set a specific date.

He really didn't want to go back so soon; if possible, he would stay for at least another five or six days.
His golden touch is now in full swing, slowly gathering the fish, shrimp, and crabs from the surrounding sea.
If we rush back, won't all our previous efforts be wasted?
But that's unrealistic.
Because of the Dragon Boat Festival, he had to rush back to accompany Ye Qingling to her parents' home to celebrate the festival.
Moreover, apart from Ah-chan who is not yet married, everyone else has the same need, so they should be sent back.
Feng Jialing nodded: "Okay, it's settled then. It should be about ready in two more days."
Although today's and yesterday's harvest wasn't great, the cargo sold in Tuocheng made the trip worthwhile.
"Yes, and there are still two days left, so I believe we can have a good ending."
"I hope so..."
