Feng Jiaqing and Ye Haishan were also so shocked that they couldn't close their mouths.
They glanced into the fish hold and saw quite a lot of cargo, and also learned about Feng Ye's catch.
But I never expected that we would actually catch so many fish, and each one was huge and valuable.
As for the smaller fish that were brought out later, such as yellowtail, sea bass, snapper, and mackerel, although there were many of them and the prices were acceptable, they seemed insignificant in comparison.
Once all the cargo in the fish hold had been weighed, the crowd on the dock thought it was over and was preparing to disperse.
To everyone's surprise, they saw the people on the yacht walking towards the aft deck and even carrying a chain hoist over there.
"Damn, could there be a bigger fish?"
"Looks like there's still some stock that hasn't been weighed yet. Let's wait and see what other interesting things there are."
"Hmm, let's take another look. It won't make a difference if we wait a little longer."
Everyone's curiosity was reignited, and they all stopped in their tracks, craning their necks and staring eagerly at the direction of the yacht's aft deck.
Before long, a huge bluefin tuna was slowly moved towards the foredeck by a hand-operated hoist.
The dock erupted in an instant, with cheers, exclamations, and discussions all mingling together.
"Ah, a giant bluefin fin!"
"Holy crap, another bluefin tuna, and it's huge."
"My God, I'm so lucky to have seen such a big bluefin tuna!"
"How heavy must this be? Over a thousand pounds, right?"
"Judging by his build, even if he doesn't weigh over a thousand pounds, he's probably not much different."
"This is incredible! To catch such a huge bluefin tuna is absolutely amazing..."
Finally, the bluefin tuna was slowly placed on the scale.
Everyone held their breath, their eyes fixed on the scale, eagerly awaiting the result.
"948 jin (424 catties)".
The workers shouted.
This weight once again caused a stir among the crowd at the dock.
Feng Ye was somewhat disappointed, as the large blue finned bird had indeed not reached the weight of a thousand catties, just as he had expected.
Although there is only a difference of 52 jin, their reputations are quite different.
Nearly a thousand kilograms and over a thousand kilograms are two completely different concepts.
The mere 52-pound difference in weight alone makes a world of difference in the market value of this bluefin tuna, especially when it's up for auction.
Even so, this 948-pound bluefin tuna is still an extremely impressive specimen.
This record is very difficult for anyone to break.
Qin Aijun looked at the large bluefin tuna with a little regret, but his eyes were filled with more joy.
He laughed heartily: "The fish are weighed! Let's go, it's almost lunchtime, let's go to the restaurant and have a feast to celebrate today's harvest!"
It was indeed getting late; weighing those fish took more than an hour, and it was already past eleven o'clock.
Feng Ye stepped forward and said, "President Qin, you guys go ahead, I won't go. My father and father-in-law are waiting for me to come back."
"Oh, that's your father-in-law."
Qin Aijun nodded in realization, then added, "Why go back? Let's invite them all together. We're all having such a good time today, let's all celebrate together!"
"Isn't this a bad idea?"
Feng Ye hesitated for a moment.
After all, his father and father-in-law weren't familiar with the people on the yacht.
Especially his father-in-law, he didn't know a single person.
His father only knew Qin Aijun because he often delivered goods to Jinghong.
Feng Ye was worried that the animals might feel uncomfortable suddenly attending such a gathering.
"What's wrong with that? It's just a meal."
Qin Aijun patted Feng Ye on the shoulder, "That's your problem. You're too polite. You don't have the straightforwardness of a young person at all. You're always worrying about this and that. You feel like an old man."
Feng Ye couldn't refute what he said.
He lived to be 59 in his previous life, so his mental age is definitely that of an old man, older than anyone else on this ship.
It is said that the older people get, the more they tend to be hesitant and have many concerns.
Despite being reborn, he unconsciously retains a certain old-fashioned and cautious demeanor.
Feng Ye gave a wry smile and turned to look at Feng Jiaqing and Ye Haishan: "President Qin invited us to have a meal together to celebrate, why don't we go and join in the fun?"
Feng Jiaqing and Ye Haishan exchanged a glance, and Feng Jiaqing said, "Since they have extended such a warm invitation, let's go and not spoil everyone's fun."
Ye Haishan nodded as well: "Let's join in the fun."
Seeing that they had agreed, Feng Ye said to Qin Aijun, "Alright, President Qin, then we will respectfully comply."
Qin Aijun nodded in satisfaction and waved his hand, "Alright, everyone, let's go! We won't leave until we're drunk tonight!"
The group of eight disembarked and left the dock in a grand procession.
...
In one of Jinghong's private rooms, everyone sat together, and a lively atmosphere instantly filled the room.
The waiter quickly brought out a table full of food and drinks.
As the only junior present, Feng Ye was the first to raise his glass and stand up, saying, "Let me toast everyone first. Please feel free to drink as you like, I'll drink mine."
After saying that, he tilted his head back and drank the wine in his glass in one gulp.
Everyone raised their glasses in response to his enthusiasm.
After refilling the glass, Qin Aijun raised his glass and said with a smile, "Logically speaking, this glass should be offered to others first, such as Boss Cai."
However, I want to first thank Xiao Feng. If it weren't for him, we definitely wouldn't have had such a fruitful and enjoyable fishing trip this time.
Therefore, I propose that we all raise our glasses and toast Xiao Feng.
Hao Guoguo laughed heartily and said, "Old Qin is right. Old Qin and I have gone out to sea to fish quite a few times in the past year or so, and the catch has been pretty good."
