Chapter 108 News



This trip overseas can be considered a failure. Although we gained a lot, there was nothing valuable.

The fish caught in the evening were all mudfish, whitebait and ribbonfish. It was fun to fish, but the fish caught were not big ones and were not valuable. However, Yu Shengnan didn't want to sail around on the sea in the dark at night, so she just stayed there to accompany Qiao Shan and Zhao Lei.

The mudfish is a fish that people love and hate. What people love about it is that it has a characteristic that once it is bitten, it will struggle hard. This fish itself is also quite strong, which often makes you feel very satisfied.

What you hate is that after all your hard work, you finally pull up a fish, only to find it's a worthless mudfish. The current market price of mudfish is as low as 7 or 8 yuan per catty.

The mudfish is not big, usually only one or two kilograms, so if you spend a lot of effort to catch a big grouper, Yu Shengnan really feels that it is not cost-effective to catch a mudfish.

But Zhao Lei and Qiao Shan are different. Zhao Lei is a worker. He doesn't care how much fishing is worth now. He just wants to have fun.

You find a job that pays you, provides food and accommodation, and allows you to have fun at work. Would you do it for 6,000 yuan a month?

Anyway, Zhao Lei was not going anywhere and was determined to follow Boss Yu to the end. He felt that Yu Shengnan was the noble person in his life.

As for Qiao Shan, his situation is different. Fishing is his source of income, but he doesn't have the ability to catch valuable fish. His fishing relies entirely on luck.

He had never gone fishing alone, but he had gone out to catch fish alone. When he went out to catch fish alone, it was purely based on luck. He fished for four hours once and only made 200 yuan. But when he went to the sea with a man, he could make at least 2,000 yuan.

So my brother took him out fishing, and it was good if he caught any fish.

As for whitebait and ribbon fish, they are both small fish and not very valuable, but they are nice to take home and eat.

The next day, early in the morning, the three of them set out, went to the location where the trap was set, and collected it.

It’s true that the ground traps had a good harvest, with more than 30 orchid crabs. However, a lot of crab carcasses were found in a group of ground traps. When Yu Shengnan closed the net and saw two earth dragons, she was happy.

The earth dragon is a kind of fish, but it really lives up to its name of a dragon. It has a slender body, is phosphorus-free, and is covered with a layer of slippery mucus, making it difficult to catch.

It should be noted that the earth dragon is a carnivore and likes to eat small fish, shrimps, and crabs. So if there is this guy in the ground trap, it is a good thing that the crabs are not eaten by him.

The earth dragon in front of me is more than one meter long. Judging from the state of its stomach, it must have eaten at least seven or eight crabs.

However, Yu Shengnan didn't feel bad at all. The price of wild earth dragon is not cheap. The market price is 500-1000 yuan per catty. In some places, it can even be sold at a high price of 3000 yuan per catty. It is definitely a valuable commodity.

The reason why earth dragons are expensive is mainly because they are difficult to catch in the wild, especially large earth dragons are rare.

Why are earth dragons so expensive? First, for their delicious taste, and second, for their nutritional value. Soup made from earth dragon bones strengthens tendons and bones, while their meat and blood nourish kidney essence, improving kidney function and reproductive capacity. They also promote blood circulation and boost immunity, effectively curing illnesses and providing nutritional support.

In recent years, the market has been chasing after it, and the price of earth dragon has been a bit inflated, so it is so expensive. However, I would like to remind everyone that there are many fake earth dragons on the market, especially some unscrupulous vendors use conger eels to impersonate earth dragons.

Everyone must be able to distinguish between real and fake earth dragons. Real earth dragons do not bite people because they do not have sharp teeth. Also, real earth dragons are round, and they are shaped like a round stick from head to tail. Don't buy the wrong one.

After collecting the trap, Yu Shengnan began to walk back. She was in a hurry because she was hungry. The food had already been eaten, and no one was full. The lack of food supply had made the three of them lose interest in fishing.

Yu Shengnan deliberately took a detour on her way back and passed by the artificial fishing spot from yesterday from a distance, but seeing that there were two boats parked there, they did not stop.

"Brother, what do you think they are doing over there?"

This time even Qiao Shan noticed that the other party was not fishing, because when they passed by, they saw someone jumping into the sea from the boat.

"Why bother with them? Let's not mess with them for now. Let's wait until we get a big ship."

The Jinyun 280 is so small that when it is docked at the pier, people dare not put anything on it because there is no place to hide it.

The ship is docked at the dock. If there are valuables there, then it must be that you are not there. If I am here, then it is not there.

When we arrived at the dock, it was very busy. There were many fishing boats returning to the port in the morning, mainly to catch up with the crowds so that they could sell the fish on the boat quickly.

Yu Shengnan and her companions didn't have much stuff, so with just three people, they finished moving everything in three trips. Qiao Shan and Zhao Lei mainly carried the things that were not very heavy but difficult to carry. The heavy fish baskets were all handled by Yu Shengnan alone, because he had to do the work of many people alone.

"Brother Nan, do you still need to take the driving license lessons? Hurry up," Qiao Shan reminded Yu Shengnan about the driver's license while driving.

Since there weren't many goods this time, Yu Shengnan didn't call anyone and asked Qiao Shan to drive. The group went straight to Oriental Seafood City. Coming here was a good opportunity to sell goods and have a meal.

"Come on, first give me twenty baskets of dumplings, six bowls of tofu pudding, two bowls of wontons, and six fried dough sticks," Qiao Shan shouted loudly.

The seafood city is closed in the morning, so the first floor is empty in the morning. It is simply contracted out to a breakfast seller. However, the boss is quite generous in his business and his business is very good. He closes the stall on time at 10 o'clock every day. People are not allowed to enter and can take away directly, which definitely does not affect the seafood city's business at noon.

Fan Zeng was on duty today, and he didn't expect Yu Shengnan and the others to come directly.

"Mr. Yu, I haven't seen you for a while." It was indeed a while since we last met. When there were too many goods or the goods were particularly valuable, Lu Tongwei was directly asked to collect them.

"Master Fan, your belly is getting bigger and bigger. We didn't have much stuff today, so I pulled it here myself. Here's a moonfish and two earth dragons. Please take care of them. As for the other crabs and other small fish, you can take care of them. You don't have to let me take the small fish back."

"Oh, you are wrong. Now we want whatever you give us. By the way, Mr. Yu, have you heard?" Fan Zeng raised his eyebrows as he spoke.

Yu Shengnan finished showing off a bowl of tofu pudding before looking up and asking him.

"What's the matter? What news did Master Fan tell us?" Yu Shengnan was wondering if Yao Meifang's matter had implicated something else, and their restaurant had other plans.

"It's the news about those two large ships. Something happened to the ship that supplied us before!"
