Ye Cheng rubbed his eyes, incredulous. It was 100, and with the bonus of 20, it was 120.
How could something with such a high luck stat be out of stock?
This is not scientific!
There's definitely something wrong; maybe there's a big shipment waiting for them down below.
"Little Tiger, keep going, no problem." Ye Cheng was now full of confidence.
Seeing Ye Cheng like this, Xiao Hu immediately understood that there was definitely something going on.
The two lowered the net for the fourth time.
Just then, Duan Chunsheng's boat approached. Ye Cheng picked up the walkie-talkie, and Duan Chunsheng asked a few questions.
"How's it going, second brother? How many lines have you been on?"
"Uncle, we cast three nets and only got a few shrimp, so Xiaohu and I just stir-fried them and ate them."
Duan Chunsheng chuckled, "It's alright, second brother, you'll get the hang of it after a few more tries. You're not skilled at first, but you'll get better later."
"Okay, Uncle, just watch, I'm sure I can do it."
After hanging up the radio, Ye Cheng decided to go against the ocean current this time, opening the net port even wider, although this also increased the ship's resistance.
Another hour of searching for the internet cafe was underway. I was filled with anticipation, and with a luck score of 120, it was impossible for the internet cafe to be empty four times in a row.
But the reality was a slap in the face for Ye Cheng. There were hairy crabs, crab hairy crabs. A few small swimming crabs, the kind that are supposed to be released back into the sea, came up.
There were also tiny shrimp that could only be served with a large amount of wine, and a ten-centimeter-long sea fish.
"Brother, something's not right," Xiao Hu said. Even when he was with Wang Defa before, things had never been this dark.
Ye Cheng sat on the bench in frustration, unable to understand.
After pondering for a while, Ye Cheng was at a loss and said helplessly, "Let's go home, Tiger, let's go back first, I need to sort things out."
Seeing Ye Cheng's condition, Xiao Hu didn't let him drive the boat and instead steered the boat back to the dock himself.
As soon as the cargo arrives at the dock, the people who collect the goods come to come over.
"Oh, the boat has changed hands. Did the second brother buy it?" This was what Boss He said. Now that he saw Ye Cheng driving Old Chen's boat, he immediately understood.
Ye Cheng looked listless and casually replied, "Yeah, the transfer is done. Today is the first time we've gone out to sea."
"What good stuff did you get your hands on? You, Ye Lao Er, always bring good stuff every time you go to sea. Let us see."
"Yes, let's see, the price will definitely be good."
The others chimed in, not to egg him on, but because Ye Cheng's previous record was so impressive that everyone believed he was sure to get his hands on a large shipment.
Ye Cheng chuckled and cupped his hands in greeting, "We just tested the boat today, nothing's done yet. We'll talk to everyone again when it starts next time."
Although the expression was a bit strange, everyone saw that there was nothing on the boat, so they stopped crowding around. It was normal for someone to go out for a stroll after buying something.
On the way back, Ye Cheng remained silent, leaving Xiao Hu at a loss for words.
"Brother, let's go tomorrow instead. There's always a chance of good luck with this stuff."
"Okay, let's go back and rest first." Ye Cheng replied casually and went home on his own, leaving Xiao Hu to put Da Huang back on the beach.
He's a little scared now, wondering if there's something wrong with his system.
With a luck value of 120, how could there be no stock?
If the system malfunctions, I'm doomed.
I only have tens of thousands of yuan on hand right now, and I still have a mortgage of 300,000 yuan.
If you rely on your own unsystematic beachcombing, you'll struggle to earn even a few hundred yuan a month.
Does this mean I have to go out and work again, and go back to that kind of factory life?
Ye Cheng couldn't figure it out all afternoon, and he only ate a few bites of dinner.
After dinner, Li the Cripple arrived and spoke to Ye Cheng with a mysterious expression.
"Second brother, I've heard the news. The Chen family is still pushing Chen Jinhai to run for the position."
Ye Cheng had absolutely no interest in the village committee election and gave a perfunctory reply.
"Okay, I understand."
Seeing Ye Cheng like this, Li the Cripple was a little puzzled.
"No, second brother, what's wrong with you? You seem like a completely different person all of a sudden. Are you sick?"
"No, you should go back first. Don't tell anyone about the village committee matters yet. Let me think about it some more."
Li the Cripple wanted to say something more, but seeing Ye Cheng's absent-minded look, he didn't say anything more.
After dinner, Duan Chunsheng came over, looked at Ye Cheng, sighed, and handed Ye Cheng a cigarette.
"Second brother, don't be discouraged. Your Uncle Duan didn't give up even when his ship sank. You just had a day of bad luck. It's normal. Nobody's lucky every day."
Ye Cheng gave a wry smile, took a deep drag of his cigarette, and slowly exhaled.
"Uncle Duan, my situation is different from yours, and different from everyone else's."
"What's the difference? You were just a bit luckier than us a while ago. Think about how you used to be, always stealing chickens and doing shady things. You're already doing very well now."
Duan Chunsheng began to speak earnestly, as if this guy had no one to talk to at home and had come here to lecture him.
At least Duan Chunsheng left, and now it was quiet. Ye Cheng started to think things through.
system.
system.
Ye Cheng opened the system and looked at it again.
The luck stat is correct, 100+20.
It didn't say it couldn't be used, so why can't I get it?
Just then, Ye Cheng glanced at the exchange shop on the other side. In addition to the shovel, fishing rod, and fish trap from before, there was one more item:
trawl!
Holy crap!!!
Ye Cheng jumped up from the bed in a flash.
Damn it!
I was incredibly stupid.
System, system! You can only enjoy the bonuses if you use the system.
My trawl net belongs to Old Chen, how could it possibly have any system bonuses?
Having found the reason, Ye Cheng directly redeemed a trawl net for 4000 points.
The system's trawl net looks amazing, gleaming with a black light. Anything produced by the system is bound to be top-notch.
Seeing the trawling net, Ye Cheng suddenly felt confident.
Without saying a word, he rode his motorcycle to Xiao Hu's house. It was already 9 p.m., and Xiao Hu's parents were getting ready to go to sleep, but Ye Cheng managed to knock on the door.
"Who is it, Second Brother? Are you going to go beachcombing so late?" Little Tiger's father asked in confusion.
"Uncle, if we're not going to go beachcombing, but to sea, where's Xiaohu?" Ye Cheng asked anxiously.
"Brother, I'm here. Shall we head out to sea now? Visibility is poor at sea in the middle of the night."
"Even if it's not good, I'll still go for it." Ye Cheng's attitude was very firm. He didn't know if his luck would still be there after 12 o'clock.
"No, bro, why don't you take a break? It's normal to be online all day. Don't drive people crazy." Xiao Hu was a little scared by Ye Cheng's excited state.
“Yeah, second brother, it’s just one day of online internet, that’s about right now, Uncle used to be like that too.”
Ye Cheng waved his hand, stopping the two of them. "Hurry up and go. Stop talking nonsense. I've found the reason. Just come with me."
Xiao Hu looked at Ye Cheng with suspicion, but in the end chose to trust Ye Cheng. He packed his things and followed Ye Cheng out the door.
