Old Fu first applied the brakes, then reversed the boat.
This is to loosen the cable so that the crew can pull it onto the winch.
Then the winch started operating.
Not long after.
The water divider was then pulled up.
The Fan brothers worked together to set down the water divider. Wu An watched from afar, and it seemed quite simple. But listening to Fu Yongning's constant shouts and instructions, he realized that what seemed simple actually had its tricks.
It can only be said that what is easy for those who know how is difficult for those who don't.
Setting up the net requires everyone's cooperation. Aqing and Meiwu were naturally not idle either, and under Fu Yongning's guidance, they were busy, albeit somewhat awkwardly.
Wu An looked at it and nodded slightly.
The fact that the trawlers can operate smoothly today is largely thanks to the Fu family, uncle and nephew. Without these two experienced men, the harmonious scene we see today would be completely different.
certainly.
The Fan brothers, Aqing and Meiwu, are also indispensable; without their help, the net couldn't be pulled up.
Looking at it this way...
He's become an idle person instead.
Everyone worked together to move the bags, and then the crane came in.
Fu Yongning hung the hook and then whistled.
Manager Wang clapped his hands: "Good, good, good! When the whistle blows, gold will flow in."
Old Fu laughed along with him.
As the crane operated, making a creaking sound, and as the nets filled with fish were lifted, Wu An was shocked to find that the fishing boat was slowly tilting.
Old Fu was actually quite pleased, and said with a smile, "It looks like the first net has yielded a good harvest."
Everyone's faces were beaming with joy, their eyes fixed intently on one side of the fishing boat.
Wu An suddenly realized.
Listening to the crane's strained sounds and feeling the fishing boat tilting more and more, he couldn't help but worry about what would happen if the catch became too great and the boat capsized.
This is just a small test.
If we work seriously from now on, with the help of luck, we might reap a much bigger catch.
Manager Wang was pleased to see that the first catch seemed pretty good and said, "Don't worry, An, we'll pull it up easily."
Aqing and Meiwu were also a little pale; they had never seen anything like this before.
Fu Yongning was not flustered at all. He had been busy on the trawler, so this little bit of shaking was nothing to him.
His eyes gleamed as he stared at the emerging net bag, muttering to himself.
"Splash!"
The bulging net bag had just emerged, splashing water everywhere.
Aqing and Meiwu stared at it curiously, and wanted to go over, but Fu Yongning saw this and quickly shouted, "Don't come closer, quickly move aside."
"This package is very big."
Safety first!
"Hurry up!"
He shouted loudly, and Aqing and Meiwu dared not delay and quickly hid to the side.
Old Fu looked at it, slightly excited: "It must weigh two or three tons."
"For the first network to achieve such results, it's quite remarkable."
Manager Wang quickly added some nice words, saying that the first catch from the fishing boats built in the factory was very fruitful, which was also a good thing for the factory.
This can be used for promotion.
Fu Yongning shouted excitedly, "There are fish all over here, we'll be rich!"
Aqing and Meiwu quickly performed the ritual.
The net was hanging on the deck, and everyone immediately gathered around. Aqing asked, "It's so big, how are we going to untangle it?"
Fu Yongning frowned.
What's going on?
Why are all the people on this ship beginners?
He looked at Wu An: "Boss, it's the first net, why don't you solve it?"
Wu An shook his head.
If a complete novice has never done this before, don't try to do something that backfires and makes you a laughingstock; it would be better if you got injured.
The Fan brothers were eager to try, asking Fu Yongning if they could just open the net bag like that.
Upon seeing this situation, Fu Yongning decided that he would handle it himself.
Fu Yongning is in his early thirties, which is still relatively young, but he has been working on ships for nearly 15 years.
He has been on Boss Chen's trawlers for many years and is very skilled at all the tasks on board.
Unraveling the net is not difficult.
Fu Yongning mainly emphasized the importance of safety, as injuries during future voyages at sea could be quite troublesome.
The net bag opens.
The people, who were initially delighted, froze when they saw the scattered catch.
If sea turtles can be sold for money, the catch is actually quite substantial.
Once freed from the net, the sea turtle stretched out its body, shaking seawater everywhere.
Aqing squatted down and helped the sea turtle turn over. Seeing that the sea turtle was still eating a small squid, she scolded it irritably, "Still eating? I'll teach you to eat."
"Why are you causing trouble if you have nothing better to do?"
After saying that.
They pulled the squid out of the turtle's mouth, checked that there were no barnacles on the turtle's body, and then threw the turtle back into the sea.
The sea turtle thrown into the sea smacked its lips, unsure whether to thank them or hurl insults.
Besides the sea turtles, there was also a lot of trash.
Trawls are pulled from the bottom, catching everything in their path, so in addition to fish, they catch all sorts of random things.
"Come and see!"
"What's this?"
"What a huge piece of wood!"
"It's probably petrified wood."
"Holy crap, it's so thick, so big, and so... ugly..."
Aqing looked disgusted.
Wu An walked over to take a look. The log that had been dragged up was huge, covered with all sorts of holes, as if it had been corroded by something. Looking at it almost triggered his trypophobia.
Manager Wang and the workers also came to take a look, pointing and commenting on the ebony, saying things like "agarwood," "golden nanmu," and "we'll make a fortune."
Old Fu came over, took a look, sniffed it, and said with a look of disgust, "It's not agarwood, nor is it golden nanmu; it's just a piece of wood that has been soaked in seawater for many years."
Manager Wang asked in surprise and doubt: "Really?"
"I've heard that this ebony is very valuable."
Old Fu said, "Valuable ebony has a special fragrance; you should ask about it."
Everyone leaned closer to smell it, and all they could smell was a fishy, foul odor.
Manager Wang said, "Could there be a shipwreck on the seabed?"
Old Fu said calmly, "Who knows?"
"These pieces of ebony could have drifted in from who-knows-where; there's no way to be sure."
"Even if there is something in this sea area, we cannot salvage it."
Manager Wang nodded reluctantly, repeatedly agreeing.
As the sea turtle scrambled around, another piece of ebony wood came into view.
Wu An asked, "Old Fu, what should we do with these two pieces of submerged wood?"
Old Fu said, "Just throw it back into the sea."
Wu An tried to pull it and found that the ebony was very heavy.
With the combined efforts of several people and the help of a crane, they were finally able to throw the two pieces of submerged wood back into the sea.
After dealing with the ebony, Wu An discovered that the trawl net had been pierced by a large hole made of it.
Seeing this situation, Manager Wang opened his mouth, but didn't know what to say about the scene.
On its first launch, the fishing boat actually hauled up a bunch of random stuff.
Looking around, the truly valuable catches are pitifully few.
