"It's too big."
"Holy crap, I'll lie down and compare."
"Ah Qing, compared to this giant grouper, you're like a child."
"It's too big, it's too big."
"Look at the scales, they're as big as a child's fist."
Everyone was incredibly excited, chattering away.
Without saying a word, Aqing reached out and slapped Longtun across the face several times.
Mei Wu stepped forward, raising his fist, also eager to try.
Everyone was overjoyed.
Catching the fish not only avenges the crime, but also allows them to sell it for a fortune.
"Come on, lend a hand."
"Hang him up and beat him."
"We will settle our scores and avenge our grudges."
Wu An greeted him.
Wu Ping smiled and nudged him, "Come on, you're willing to part with it, but we're not."
"How do we make money if we break him?"
"We have to be careful in serving them."
Wu An patted the giant grouper and laughed, "Damn, we even caught an old man here."
Old Fu, his face flushed, grabbed a bucket, filled it with seawater, and splashed it onto the still-living giant grouper.
Grouper is very valuable.
Not to mention those who are still alive, they are even more rare.
Giant grouper originally lived on the seabed and would usually die if they came to the surface. But this giant grouper was different; it had been wandering on the surface for a long time.
After adapting to the pressure, it was then pulled onto the deck, so it was still lively and energetic.
Wu An gestured and said, "If we tidy up the live fish storage, it should be able to hold them."
Everyone pitched in and lifted the giant grouper up.
"It's really heavy."
"Yes, it's heavy and slippery."
"It must weigh three or four hundred pounds."
"I reckon there is."
Looking at the giant grouper lying in the live fish tank, Old Fu said, "I've been a fisherman for so many years, and this is the first time I've ever seen one this big."
"I heard that a dog this big has been caught in Hong Kong."
"We haven't done this before."
"It can definitely sell for forty or fifty thousand."
Everyone was very happy.
Wu An also grinned.
The live giant grouper weighed two to three hundred pounds, and it was the first one they had caught. It was fully buffed, and most people definitely couldn't handle it.
Regardless of whether this fish tastes good or not, whoever buys it will be highly regarded.
A wealthy boss would definitely be very interested in this grouper.
One fish can almost make up for the losses caused by the damage to longline fishing.
After settling the giant grouper, Wu An checked the time; it was already 6 PM. He still had 50 luck points left to use, so he said, "Let's head back."
The giant grouper lay motionless in the live fish tank, looking rather unwell. Everyone else was exhausted, and there was no point in lingering any longer. Besides, if the giant grouper died, they would lose a lot of money.
Everyone nodded.
No one had any objections.
I'm so tired.
Wu Ping guarded the dragon grouper.
Wu An came to the side of the boat and saw that the orca was still there. He waved vigorously, "Tiger, come, come, come."
The orca came closer.
Aqing and Meiwu also came to see.
"Thank you so much for today. I don't have much to repay you with, so I'll just give you some food. Please don't mind it." Wu An said, pouring the spring fish from the bucket into the water.
The orca began to eat happily.
After the bucket of spring fish was poured out, Tiger ate quite a lot, and some fell into the sea. This time, Tiger didn't sink down to eat like before, so he seemed to have eaten his fill.
“Okay, this will do.” Wu An waved to the orca and said, “We’re heading back now.”
See you next time.
"Bye-Bye."
The orca seemed to understand, letting out two soft moans before flipping over and disappearing into the sea. The next moment, it reappeared in the distance.
Wu An and the others only looked away after they could no longer see the boat. They added some luck points to the fishing boat and sighed when they saw that there were still 46 luck points left.
He discovered he had a bit of obsessive-compulsive disorder.
If you don't have much luck, it's okay if you don't use it all.
But today he has so much luck value, and he doesn't want to waste a single bit of it. He wants to use it all up, and he finds the remaining luck value extremely displeasing.
But now there are less than six hours left until midnight.
...
On the other side.
Tiger, who had helped, returned to his extended family.
The largest orca turned its head and let out two soft moans.
Tiger, who was helping out, responded twice.
Other orcas joined in the call.
They are communicating.
Then.
After the largest orca adjusted its direction, the other orcas followed suit.
The orca pod was heading towards the fishing boats.
Wu An had barely sat down and hadn't even taken two sips of tea when he heard Old Fu shouting.
I went over to take a look.
They then realized that a pod of orcas had caught up with them.
"What happened?"
"have no idea."
"Why are you giving this to us as a gift?"
"The orca was quite polite."
"Hahaha."
Everyone chatted happily. Old Fu realized that the orca pod had no intention of ramming the fishing boat, so he was completely relieved. Let the orcas follow us if they want.
Wu An chatted with the orca for a bit, but seeing that the orca was still following him, he was completely baffled.
What's going on?
"Huh... does this mean we have to follow them?"
"Don't you think so?"
The first three orcas were clearly shifting their course, and the other orcas also showed signs of turning, while the fishing boat was caught in the crossfire.
Old Fu smiled bitterly: "I have no choice but to follow, even if I don't want to."
Thankfully, these orcas meant no harm.
Otherwise, the fishing boats could be said to be hijacked by orcas.
Orcas swim very fast.
The first few orcas had disappeared from sight, but there were still orcas on both sides of the fishing boat. If you didn't know better, you might think the orcas were guarding the fishing boat.
It was fortunate that the orca was with them; otherwise, Old Fu would have been quite frightened during the voyage late at night.
If something unexpected happens, it could be fatal.
It took almost twenty minutes to drive like that.
Not to mention Aqing and Meiwu, even Old Fu was getting a little impatient. Their current direction of travel had completely deviated from the return route.
If this continues, even without any unexpected events, we might run out of fuel and have to return home.
At this time.
The orca, which had been quiet until now, suddenly started to moan softly.
Wu An was greatly encouraged.
He believed the orca pod wouldn't deliberately cause trouble.
He pointed ahead and shouted, "Look, everyone!"
At the end of the light, the view was somewhat blurry, and orcas could be seen from time to time. Aqing said, "The tigers seem to be going in circles."
What the hell are you doing?
The fishing boat slowly approached.
When they got closer, everyone was stunned by what they saw.
The water was boiling.
It's a school of fish!
Aqing excitedly danced around: "Hooray! The tigers are leading us to find the fish!"
“My brother and I had encountered them hunting before.”
"My brother said it was a toll."
"So this time, the tiger cubs offered their tribute voluntarily."
"Bro, you're really awesome."
Wu An felt ashamed.
The way you're saying that makes it sound like I've done something to the orcas.
He coughed twice and said, "Tiger is such a good friend."
"This makes me feel quite embarrassed."
"We don't have anything to repay you with."
"Aqing, Brother Wu, Big Brother, don't just stand there, hurry up and get the net."
"Let's not let Tiger's good intentions go to waste."
Everyone, get moving!
