It's not that Old Fu is worrying unnecessarily.
Wu An's performance was extremely unprofessional; his actions, from setting sail to the present, have been quite unreliable.
To be honest.
If he hadn't gone out to sea with them yesterday, he would have doubted that he could make money this way.
He admitted that Wu An was lucky.
Even if we're lucky, we can't just waste it like this.
We should be focusing on making money!
Old Fu was restless, smoking on the deck and pacing around from time to time. Finally, unable to stay still any longer, he fetched a basin of water, took a towel, and went to wipe down the cockpit.
He felt uneasy if he didn't work.
Wu An set up the cutting board and began chopping vegetables with a "click-clack-clack" sound.
Chop the vegetables.
Heat oil in a wok.
Stir-fry.
There was also a small stove next to it for simmering soup.
Finally, three dishes and a soup were prepared, enough for three people.
"Come."
"The conditions on the ship are limited, so let's just sit on the floor and eat."
"Old Fu, don't just stand there, don't fake it."
"After lunch, everyone can take a nap."
Old Fu had just picked up a piece of fish when his hand trembled and it fell into his bowl: "Still taking a nap?"
Seeing that Old Fu was reacting rather strongly, Wu An asked curiously, "What's wrong? Is there a problem?"
Old Fu nodded, then shook his head.
He was a little hesitant to speak.
He's not stupid; he knows his own foul mouth.
It's something I want to change, but I can't.
He could only try to keep quiet and speak as little as possible.
Wu An was able to tolerate him.
It's one thing if it happens once or twice.
If you always say things that make people unhappy, who would want to listen?
Seeing that he was stammering, Wu An said again, "Old Fu, just say what you have to say."
Old Fu hesitated for a moment, then gritted his teeth and said, "What I'm trying to say is, if we're going out to sea to fish, shouldn't we hurry up?"
"If you're out having fun today, then disregard what I said."
He quickly added a sentence.
Wu An listened, somewhat bewildered. Should he hurry?
We've been busy setting up the traps since then, haven't we?
He had just tied up the swimming crabs, his hands were so taut from tying them up. After cleaning up the catch, he didn't rest, he started cooking.
How can we hurry up?
Don't you take a nap?
It's no wonder Wu An was confused; he and A Qing had always done it this way, and Mai Hangyu followed suit when he arrived.
Take a break after you finish your work.
After resting, we'll get back to work and then head back.
Although Old Mai can drive a boat and often goes out to sea, he is not a proper fisherman and does not know the daily working methods and intensity of veteran fishermen, so he has no way to give any pointers.
Wu An pondered the situation and found himself both amused and exasperated.
He didn't really know much about the work of fishermen, but he didn't expect it to be so hard that Old Fu would feel like he was playing on his boat.
"Brother, what are you thinking about? You didn't understand, did you?" Seeing that Wu An didn't speak, A Qing thought that Wu An hadn't reacted yet and shouted triumphantly, "I know what Lao Fu means."
"Old Fu complains that you eat too slowly."
"Actually, I wanted to say that too."
"Brother, you really need to hurry up."
"They picked up food and rice one bite at a time with their chopsticks."
"You have to learn from me."
"Just start eating."
"After you eat, hurry up and go to sleep. We can sleep a little longer later."
Wu An: "..."
"???" Old Fu asked with the same expression as an old man looking at his phone on the subway, "Aqing, you must have been bad at reading comprehension in Chinese when you were in school, right?"
"How did you know?" Aqing asked in shock, then looked at Wu An: "Brother, did you tell Lao Fu about my 3 points on the Chinese test?"
Wu An shook his head and asked, "You got a 3 on your Chinese test?"
Aqing shook her head; "No."
"You just said that."
You misheard me.
"Old Fu, did you hear that?"
"I heard you."
"I didn't say it, I definitely didn't say it, I absolutely didn't!" Aqing shouted excitedly.
Wu An stopped teasing A Qing, looked at Old Fu, his smile vanished, and said, "Old Fu, as I said before, A Qing and I have only been fishermen for a short time."
"I don't understand many things. If there are any common-sense errors, please point them out to me at any time."
"I can tell you very seriously now that we go out to sea to fish and make money, not to play around."
"You're having such a strong reaction to the afternoon nap. Did you never take naps when you were working on the ship?"
Old Fu explained, "No, not exactly."
"Sometimes we go out to sea at dawn, work in the morning, and after a busy day, everyone will take a nap at noon to replenish their energy to continue working."
"It's not fixed, it depends on the fish population. After we've finished our work, we'll take a break for a while."
“But we went out to sea this morning and have only been working for two or three hours so far.”
"I don't think it's necessary to stop eating, drinking, and sleeping like this."
Wu An suddenly realized and said, "Our ship isn't big, so the workload isn't too heavy."
"It's also my fault, I didn't communicate with you well."
"When we go out to sea, we usually set up longline fishing. After setting up the longline, we retrieve the bottom trap, set the bottom trap again, eat and rest, and finally retrieve the longline and return to port."
"Barring any unforeseen circumstances, we go out to sea in the morning and are always back at the dock before dark, repeating this process every day."
"Today we'll collect the ground traps first, and then we'll use the longline fishing. We won't be able to collect the longline fishing until the afternoon. In the meantime, we can go ashore and explore. Whether we're fishing in the ponds, fishing, or beachcombing, if we're lucky, we can consider it extra income."
"Forget about your previous workload, we have our own rhythm."
Old Fu muttered, "According to you, that's a bit too easy."
“I overheard the young people in the village chatting, saying that working in an office is very comfortable.”
"We're pretty much the same as those elite white-collar workers who work nine-to-five in the office."
Ah Qing chuckled and interjected, "It's different, it's different."
“The income of those migrant workers in big cities is not comparable to ours.”
"Sometimes I earn more in a day than they do in a month."
Wu An nodded: "Aqing is right."
"Relax and enjoy the process of making money."
Old Fu smiled and said, "I understand."
"Setting traps, longline fishing, fishing, fishing in ponds, beachcombing—our methods of operation are varied and chaotic."
"In fact, most fishing boats that go out to sea specialize in one thing."
"But if we can make money, I won't complain anymore."
Wu An smiled.
He understood Old Fu's concerns, but he couldn't say them outright.
Although I don't have much luck value right now, it can be used up by just using a fish trap, but the harvest from fish traps is relatively limited.
Moreover, there is a risk of getting stuck at the bottom.
For example.
So far, the best catch from the earth cage has been small green dragons.
Fishing has an even higher potential.
With the same 10 points of luck, you might be able to catch even more valuable seafood.
With this in mind, he wanted to try different methods of operation to expand the scope of his harvest as much as possible, just in case he got lucky one day.
Eat well.
The three of them took a nap.
An hour later, Wu An was woken up by his alarm clock. He checked his longline fishing and found that his luck value had dropped to only 2 points, so he immediately boosted it to the maximum.
He has 50 points left.
He looked at the "Survival Island" not far away. It seemed he would have to find a way to use up those 50 points of luck on the island.
The tide was just going out.
He woke up Aqing and Lao Futou, and the two of them lowered a small boat. Lao Futou had noticed that there wasn't any on the boat and specifically reminded him to buy one, so he bought the equipment that very day.
With this small boat, they can anchor and secure the large ship, and then row the small boat to the island.
Old Fu looked at the receding tide and said, "It'll probably only last two hours, we need to hurry."
Three people, plus a water pump, rowed a boat to the island.
Upon arriving on the island, Wu An quickly found a suitable puddle. He chose a relatively small one first, but as soon as he started pumping water, he discovered that the pump's luck value had dropped by one.
Hmm.
There's hope.
Wu An was secretly delighted and stared at the puddle.
Old Fu was squatting by the puddle, also looking around. Based on his experience, he thought the puddle was very small and close to the sea, making it difficult to store goods when the tide went out.
It'll probably all be for nothing.
result.
Before he could even get up, he saw a large fish leap out of the water, so high that he could almost see its eyes.
While he was still in a daze, the big fish fell back into the water, splashing water all over his face.
Old Fu wiped the salty seawater off his face, muttering to himself, "Ganlinmu, why is my experience not working again?"
Upon seeing this, Wu An burst into laughter.
He also noticed that his luck value had dropped by 3 points in just a short while, which made him laugh even more heartily.
This little puddle is probably going to give him a big surprise.
