Boss Yang, accompanied by a helper, went to the front to help his uncle and his family move their catch of fish.
Li Qingqing, along with another helper, boarded Chen Zhiyao's fishing boat.
Her catch was less than that of her uncle's fishing boat, so the group quickly arrived at the purchasing station first.
Li Qingqing was very efficient and methodically weighed the various types of fish that had already been sorted.
The various shellfish weighed 110 jin (50 kg) in total, at 8 yuan per jin, for a total of 880 yuan. The sea cucumber weighed 10 jin (5 kg) at 80 yuan per jin, for a total of 800 yuan.
Octopus: 19 jin (approximately 9.5 catties), 31 yuan per jin (approximately 0.5 kg), total 589 yuan. Blue crab: 5 jin (approximately 2.5 catties), 49 yuan per jin (approximately 0.5 kg), total 245 yuan.
Six catties of orchid crab, 46 yuan per catty, totaling 276 yuan. One 1.1 catty of small green lobster, 188 yuan per catty, totaling 207 yuan.
Coconut snails weigh 1.7 jin (approximately 0.85 kg), priced at 106 yuan per jin, totaling 180 yuan. Sea bream weigh 24 jin (approximately 12 kg), priced at 10 yuan per jin, totaling 240 yuan.
The sea bass weighed 18 jin (9 catties) at 36 yuan per jin (0.5 kg), totaling 648 yuan. The sesame grouper weighed 9.8 jin (4.9 catties) at 52 yuan per jin (0.5 kg), totaling 510 yuan.
Grouper weighs 1.2 jin (approximately 0.6 kg), priced at 400 yuan per jin, totaling 480 yuan. White pomfret weighs 181 jin (approximately 98.5 kg), priced at 23 yuan per jin, totaling 4163 yuan.
Today, Chen Zhiyao earned a total of 9218 yuan from her sea voyage.
Looking at the transfer information on her phone, Chen Zhiyao estimated that she should have about 10,000 points.
So, full of anticipation, I opened the points page.
Host: Chen Zhiyao
Level: Fishing Level 1, Beachcombing Level 3
Points: 9386
Perspective range: 3 meters on the ground, 10 meters in the sea.
Visible viewing time: three hours each day for both the land and sea areas.
"Damn it, I'm still more than 600 points short. I was thinking of exchanging my lucky fishing rod back and going deep-sea fishing the day after tomorrow."
Thinking of the three dogfish, four red sea bream, more than two pounds of rock bream, and some small sea snails left behind on the fishing boat.
At this moment, Chen Zhiyao felt extremely annoyed. She should have known better than to be greedy and instead sold them all. Maybe she could have collected 10,000 points.
Alas, what a miscalculation.
Chen Zhiyao emerged from the system with a disappointed look on her face, while Grandpa Chen's account had already been settled.
Various shellfish, 180 jin, at 8 yuan per jin, totaling 1440 yuan. Sea cucumber, 12 jin, at 80 yuan per jin, totaling 960 yuan.
The baby lobster weighs 2.1 jin (approximately 1.85 kg) and costs 188 yuan per jin, totaling 395 yuan. The octopus weighs 11.2 jin (approximately 5.1 kg) and costs 31 yuan per jin, totaling 347 yuan.
Sea bass, 38 jin, 36 yuan per jin, total 1368 yuan. Green wrasse, 5.3 jin, 100 yuan per jin, total 530 yuan.
The old man had a very good day, earning a total of 5,040 yuan.
Today's earnings hit a new high, and the old man couldn't suppress the uncontrollable grin spreading across his face.
The grandfather and grandson had already received the money when the older cousin and his wife, along with Mr. Yang, leisurely arrived.
Judging from the fish unloaded from the truck, these people who went out to sea to fish had a pretty good catch today, with several large fish weighing over 10 pounds each.
The second brother carried his 15-pound blue-spotted cat the whole way, showing it off immensely.
Every time he met someone on the road, he would hold up the fish in his hand to show them, and almost everyone at the dock knew that he had caught a 15-pound giant grouper.
Grandpa Chen looked at his silly grandson with disdain, completely forgetting that he had once driven the fish around the village three times.
Chen Feng and his group would be selling fish for quite some time, so the grandfather and grandson decided not to wait for them and headed back by boat.
When the alarm clock rang the next day, Chen Zhiyao noticed something was wrong; she could hear a light patter of rain outside.
Chen Zhiyao's uncle's fishing boat is scheduled to depart tomorrow evening, and she had originally planned to go out to sea again today.
It would be best to accumulate 10,000 points to buy the system's lucky fish fishing rod.
No wonder plans can't keep up with changes; it was drizzling outside when I woke up this morning, and it was also windy.
When Chen Zhiyao saw the dark clouds outside, her face darkened, fearing that her deep-sea fishing trip would be ruined.
She ran over to find her grandfather with a worried expression.
"Grandpa, Grandpa, it's raining and windy outside, can we still go out to sea tomorrow?"
"It's alright, the rain should stop by this afternoon. The wind isn't strong either, it should stop by evening."
Grandpa Chen is experienced at sea and could tell at a glance that this rain was nothing to worry about and would stop soon.
However, we can't go out to sea today.
Seeing her father about to leave for the store, Chen Zhiyao quickly stopped him:
"Dad, wait a minute. We can't go out to sea today. I'll go to the store and pick out some fishing gear for tomorrow."
Chen Zhiyao was excited about finally getting to go deep-sea fishing and was eager to catch a big fish.
Seeing this, Grandpa Chen quickly came over as well, ready to pick out a suitable sea fishing rod.
So the grandfather, grandfather, and grandson went together to Chen Weiqiang's fishing tackle shop.
Chen Weiqiang's fishing skills may not be as good as those of the grandfather and grandson, but he is a professional when it comes to fishing gear.
Knowing that the two were going fishing in more distant waters, he specially recommended a sea rod worth 5,000 yuan to them.
"This fishing rod has a good feel and stiffness. It can easily catch fish weighing 50 or 60 pounds, and the limit is a giant fish weighing 80 pounds."
Chen Zhiyao held the fishing rod in her hand and examined it closely. It was expensive, but the feel of it was indeed much better than the previous two.
She looked at her father with a smile, "Can this rod catch a tuna weighing over a hundred pounds?"
“80 jin is already a bit of a stretch, your 100 jin probably won’t work. If you want to fish for tuna, you need to get the kind from over there.”
As he spoke, Chen Weiqiang pointed to two black poles standing to the side, exuding an air of great value.
Chen Zhiyao paused for a moment, then quickly asked, "This kind of fishing rod must be very expensive, right?"
Chen Weiqiang brushed aside his wispy hair and said nonchalantly, "It's alright, only a little over 10,000."
"..."
Chen Zhiyao secretly swallowed, never expecting her father to be so rich.
Grandpa Chen spoke up, directly stopping Chen Weiqiang, who was preparing for Versailles:
"Although this trip was for deep-sea fishing, it was still in the inland sea. There were no 100-pound giants. We were already quite lucky to find something weighing 50 or 60 pounds."
"Moreover, even if you go to the open sea, it's not easy to encounter a 100-pound giant. This kind of sea rod weighing less than 80 pounds is enough."
Chen Zhiyao listened to advice and, like Grandpa Chen, eventually took the 5,000 yuan pole.
Even close brothers should keep clear accounts. Although they were family, Chen Weiqiang accepted the money without batting an eye.
However, the price of the fishing rod is calculated at a 66% discount, making it 3300 yuan per rod after the discount.
Chen Zhiyao secretly cursed the unscrupulous merchant in her heart. No wonder the store was so quiet, but her father wasn't worried at all.
Selling just one decent fishing rod would probably cover half a month's worth of sales.
Knowing that the two had gone out to sea in the evening, Chen Weiqiang recommended a special squid fishing rod to the grandfather and grandson.
squid rod
"You're going to fish for big fish this time. The shrimp you usually use are too small. It's best to use squid instead. This rod glows at night, which is perfect for catching squid."
"You can rest on the boat for a few hours before you arrive. Once you get there, use this fishing rod to catch some squid as bait."
Chen Zhiyao didn't understand any of this, and subconsciously looked towards Grandpa Chen.
Seeing that the old man nodded, he took out a blue squid fishing rod.
