Chen Zhiyao earned a total of 15,430 yuan from her trip to sea today. In just one day, she earned what she used to earn in two months.
Looking at the payment notification on my phone, I was overjoyed.
I spent 300,000 yuan to buy the boat, and I made 40,000 yuan today. I estimate I can earn back my investment in a month.
The only downside was that my dad and grandpa didn't catch any fish today; the system's points only increased.
Thinking about the points she had accumulated over this period of time, Chen Zhiyao decided to buy physical enhancement potions for her grandparents.
As soon as she returned to her private room on the fishing boat, she eagerly opened the latest points page:
Host: Chen Zhiyao
Level: Fishing Level 2, Beachcombing Level 3
Points:
Perspective range: 3 meters on the ground, 30 meters in the sea.
Visible viewing time: three hours each day for both the land and sea areas.
A physique enhancement potion costs 30,000 points per bottle. These points can be used to buy 2 bottles of the potion and 2 potions to increase strength.
However, she didn't plan to spend all her points; she only wanted the potion to enhance her physique.
She already knew the effects of the potion: it was colorless and odorless, and drinking it could regulate the body and make the body function 5 years younger. However, each person could only drink a maximum of 2 bottles.
My grandparents are now in their late sixties and early seventies. They worked very hard when they were young, so they have some health problems now.
She planned to have the two of them drink a bottle of medicine to regulate their bodies first, and then continue to accumulate points to level up.
Once I unlock level 3 of the fishing section, I'll buy the second bottle of potion for the elderly couple to take orally.
She was worried that drinking two bottles of medicine at once would have too obvious an effect, so she thought it would be better to proceed gradually.
As for my parents, they are only in their forties and still young, so it won't matter if they wait a little longer.
Having made up her mind, Chen Zhiyao immediately spent 60,000 points in the system's shop to buy two bottles of physique-enhancing potions.
The original 80,000 points were suddenly reduced to points.
Looking at the two bottles of medicine, each about the size of an oral liquid, Chen Zhiyao was troubled, wondering how to administer them to the two of them.
After thinking for several minutes, she finally remembered the wild honey her uncle had given her.
This is honey from my uncle's friend's own farm. It tastes quite good when mixed with water. My grandma sometimes makes a cup for everyone in the evenings.
Chen Zhiyao planned to make honey water for everyone when she got home that night, and she took the opportunity to add this health-boosting medicine to her grandparents' cups.
After checking her points, Chen Zhiyao casually checked her bank account as well.
I spent 100,000 yuan to buy a fishing boat before, and I've earned a lot back from going out to sea recently.
After deducting previous expenses such as renting fishing boats and fuel costs, she has now saved 300,000 yuan.
Of the 100,000 yuan, it was money saved before buying the fishing boat, and the remaining 200,000 yuan was money saved in the past month.
Since getting the level 2 lucky fishing rod, she has been able to earn over 10,000 yuan every time she goes out to sea.
However, the seaside is often windy and rainy, and it is common to encounter weather conditions that prevent people from going out to sea.
Therefore, one can only go out to sea for about half the month.
Moreover, the daily cost of fuel, ice, and mooring fees adds up to about 1,000 yuan per day.
She felt that she had already accomplished a great deal by being able to save 200,000 yuan.
In a good mood, Chen Zhiyao planned to go shopping in the county with her mother sometime, as she hadn't bought any new clothes in a long time.
Exiting the bank's website, Chen Zhiyao was overjoyed, feeling that she was one step closer to becoming a rich woman.
She turned off her phone, happily thinking about how to spend the 300,000 yuan in her bank account, and before she knew it, she had fallen asleep.
She probably checked her bank account balance before bed, and in her dream, Chen Zhiyao became a wealthy and young heiress.
A group of handsome young men with great physiques were fawning over her.
She was thinking about which handsome guy to go on a date with when she was suddenly woken up.
The moment I opened my eyes, I saw my father's dark, old face, which startled me awake.
Chen Weiqiang was unaware of his daughter's emotional journey, and upon seeing her awake, he hurriedly urged her:
"The ship is almost at the dock. Hurry up and get off and get ready. Your mother and grandmother have prepared a meal and are waiting for us to go back."
"Oh, okay, okay." Having just woken from a sweet dream, Chen Zhiyao was still a little dazed and nodded blankly.
Stepping onto the deck, the sharp sea breeze brought her fully awake.
However, I still miss the beautiful dream I hadn't finished, and as I got off the boat, I kept muttering to myself:
"We still need to earn more money."
When I got home, dinner was already prepared, so the sea duck I caught today will have to be saved for tomorrow.
While we were still cleaning up the small crabs and various sea snails that we had saved earlier, I took advantage of the time.
Chen Zhiyao quickly took the big duck that her father had caught, along with another half-bucket of sea snails, to her uncle's house.
As soon as he entered the door, Chen Hu proudly grabbed his little cousin and excitedly told her about the big yellow croaker he had caught that day.
“That big guy weighed more than 5 kilograms. Let me tell you, it sold for several thousand yuan.”
"Several thousand dollars?"
Knowing that a single fish could sell for several thousand yuan, Chen Zhiyao became even more excited.
She took the opportunity to ask them about their catching of large yellow croakers that day.
Chen Hu honestly told everyone where he fished and what bait he used.
Chen Feng, who was sorting through the fish, looked up at his little cousin with great enthusiasm:
"We're going there again tomorrow to continue fishing for big yellow croaker. Tangtang, you guys come with us tomorrow."
“I would like to set off with you brothers, but the newly bought fishing boat is docked at the village’s dock.”
The village's dock is quite far from the town's dock; they're not even on the way.
As the captain, Chen Daqiang was more familiar with the sea terrain and explained it to her simply and clearly:
"The place where we encountered the large yellow croaker today is southeast of Turtle Island. You should be able to find it by searching for Turtle Island on the map."
"However, it's hard to say where the fish will appear. They may not be in the same place as before. We still need to use fish finders to search for them."
Upon hearing about Turtle Island, Chen Zhiyao perked up:
"I know about Turtle Island. I even went there before my family sold our fishing boat. As for the fish finder, the new one I bought seems pretty good."
Speaking of the new ship, Chen Daqiang asked with a concerned look:
"How's the new fishing boat? Is it any good to use?"
"It feels pretty good. I even encountered three schools of fish today..."
She was still talking non-stop when Yan Shuting called, urging her to go back for dinner.
Seeing that Chen Zhiyao was about to leave, her aunt quickly pulled her back.
Knowing that her family had also gone out to sea today and should have plenty of seafood, she immediately gave Chen Zhiyao a large bag of fruit to take back with her.
Chen Zhiyao tried to refuse, but her older cousin packed several turbot in a bag for her.
Seeing that she wanted to return the items, Chen Hu chimed in, "These are for your grandparents, you should take them back quickly."
Having come this far, she couldn't refuse any longer, and in the end, she carried even more things home than she had brought.
Why did you bring things back again?
Seeing that her mother was about to scold her again, Chen Zhiyao quickly explained before she could speak:
“This is a gift from my uncles to my grandparents, so I can’t very well say no.”
As she spoke, she stuffed all the fruit and fish in her hands into her mother's arms and then quickly slipped away.
