The next few days were uneventful.
Everyone has become calmer from being excited and curious at the beginning. They are no longer surprised or surprised. At most, they can just sigh casually.
It's such a big ocean, it's surprising that we didn't get some good goods.
When I discovered that there were sharks, dolphins and other big fish following behind the stern of the boat, I was very calm.
I watched too much, and there was no sense of novelty at the beginning, and I had no extra energy.
Repeating the same work every day is boring, and I don't get enough rest. Even when I feel happy, I feel numb and exhausted.
The biggest expectation now is probably to wait for this month to pass quickly and then determine the day of the month to return.
At the beginning, I only said that I would go to sea and return around the beginning of the month. As for how long I would stay at sea, it was hard to say.
There was a small amount of rain yesterday in the past few days, which did not affect the fishing boats at all. Except for typhoon days when the wind and waves are strong, it is necessary to return. The rest of the time is entirely up to the boss of the boat.
When Ye Yaodong contacted the other two ships to arrive with the fresh-carrying ship, he sold the cheap goods that had been kept fresh for the past few days, and then also replenished the fresh water.
He can't sell them for much, and he won't sell the red squid that's the most plentiful, so he's going to keep it home. The more expensive ones, he's going to freeze them and keep them home to sell.
All the other cheap items are just a little more than the giant squid, and the discounts on the fresh-carrying boats are so severe that they really can’t be sold for much.
If he didn't need to replenish other supplies, he might have to pay for it.
His fishing boat is big and has a lot of storage space. When he set out, he had already prepared a lot of supplies, which can support him for more than half a month.
In fact, you can replenish fresh water later. Everyone lives on a boat and knows how to save water. Some of them have never even washed their faces or brushed their teeth.
However, it looks more secure when it is full. This thing is a necessity of life, the source of life. Everyone is consuming it and everyone can see it. There is no need to despise too much.
There is still plenty of other diesel and ice. If necessary, you can wait for the next harvest ship to replenish some.
Seeing that he was selling only a small amount of goods, the fresh-collecting ship was curious and asked a few questions. Ye Yaodong told the truth that he was returning at the end of the month and would not stay at sea for a long time, and they finally understood.
But incidentally, the two ships that are really needed are nearby.
This time, I sold more than 100,000 kilograms of goods, and I got more than 2,000 yuan in cash, but the 3,000 yuan has not yet arrived.
Ye Yaodong shook off the money in his hand and put it in his pocket, "It's really worthless. I only got so much after working for a week..."
"Haha, Brother Dong, why don't you go check out the freezer?"
"Those who are there should be kept home."
"Those squids weigh about 100,000 kilograms, and they already occupy almost half of the freezer...and there are other more valuable items..."
"It's okay, it can fit, the capacity is enough. After a few more days of fishing, they will call the fresh harvest boat over, and we will sell some more. My boat has a larger capacity than theirs. When we can no longer load it, we will go home.
."
If you really can’t fit it in, you can temporarily refrigerate it or put it outside. If the weather is cold, it won’t go bad if you leave it for a day or two, but you have to return it immediately when you can’t fit it anymore.
It's just that there seem to be a lot of these squids. I drag them home all at once, and I don't know when they will be finished. The workshop is looking for workers.
It looks like I won’t be able to save it anymore, I’ll have to sell some of it, the production is too big...
But the goods that were dumped back into the sea were more than what they caught, such as anchovies, sardines, whitebait, herring, small red shrimp, etc. They were also dumped into the sea in tens of thousands of kilograms, no less than squid, only more than squid.
.
In the 21st century, these big fishing boats will be losing money simply because the price of oil is too high. Just filling up with oil costs three to four hundred thousand. The wages of workers are also high. A month's salary costs more than two hundred thousand. What's more?
There are some fishing boats maintained.
In addition, I was not very lucky. I encountered too few fish schools, and the catch was not enough to cover the expenses. In less than a year, I would lose money and not even have any pants left.
The state also provides subsidies, but when times are bad, we really suffer losses, and the subsidies are not enough to make up for the shortfall.
As soon as the workers heard that it was full, they went home and became energetic.
"It will fill up very quickly. It will definitely be full within a week..."
Ye Yaodong looked at them with a smile and expectant expressions. Some of them were already counting on their fingers what day it would be in the next week.
"But in one week, the fresh harvest ship will arrive. I can sell another batch of cheap goods, and I have free space. I can still salvage for a few more days."
"Too……"
"Don't think about it, it's just the first few days of the month anyway. Think about it, the workers on the other two ships have to be at sea for more than half a year. It's still winter now, and it will be summer by the time they get back to shore, and they still have to do it because of the typhoon.
Only then can I go back.”
Some older fishermen said with a smile: "Isn't that right? You are still too young. You have only been out for a few days."
"It's time to work and get ready to go offline. Selling goods is taking up so much time. Most of the day has been wasted."
He shouted, and everyone quickly cleared the deck and went about their business.
Ye Yaodong touched the several thousand dollars in his arms and climbed up to the helm. He first took them to his own exclusive lounge to deposit them.
It's actually better for him this way, as he keeps most of his goods to be sold back to the shore, and he doesn't have much cash around him.
Other fishing boats stay at sea for half a year, and they don’t know how much cash they have on board. That means they have many partners, and the people who work on the boat are all shareholders, or brothers, sons and nephews.
It's relatively easy to make money these days as long as you're brave.
After hiding the money, Ye Yaodong returned to the cab. He poured himself a sip of hot tea to warm his body and warmed his hands by the way. Then he picked up the shredded squid placed beside him and chewed it.
He has been chewing it for several days, and his cheeks are sore from chewing it. He didn't dare to eat it yesterday. Now he has an itchy mouth, so he chews a little if he doesn't want to smoke.
In fact, the more you chew, the more delicious it becomes, and the more you chew, the better it tastes.
The workers each stuffed a handful of them into their pockets, and occasionally put a few in their mouths and chewed them while working, which was also delicious.
At this moment, he didn't dare to eat more for fear of hurting his cheeks.
The workers have almost cleared the deck and are now dragging the fishing nets to the slipway at the stern of the ship.
There is no need for him to do anything. They are already familiar with each other and can cooperate with each other. There is no need to check with him before starting the work like in the first few days.
Now that I see the good goods coming in, I feel very calm and feel numb.
Not to mention them, Ye Yaodong was also numb.
When you are poor, your eyes light up when you see something valuable.
Now that I have seen so many good things, I can no longer make any waves in my heart.
He turned around and looked at the calendar. There was a big number 21, and the small font below said 24. Today was the 8th day out.
It's still too early to go back.
When he turned his eyes to the display screen again, there were a few raindrops on the windshield in front, making a pattering sound.
"It's raining again..."
The workers who were busy on the deck also noticed that it was raining and there were dried fish hanging there to dry. They all quickly collected the dried fish and then returned to the cabin to put on their raincoats.
When Ye Yaodong was in Zhoushi before, he bought a few nylon raincoats and put them on the boat, but they were only placed on the fresh-collecting boat and the Dongsheng.
This boat was just acquired, but it did not have nylon raincoats, and the workers had to provide their own raincoats.
He thought about buying some and putting them on the boat after he returned. After all, it would be more convenient to work in a raincoat, but the raincoat was too bulky.
The rain fell patter-patter, the rhythm became more frequent, the windshield in front was smudged, and the sound of the wind outside became louder.
"The conditions are difficult..."
He drank tea calmly, chewed shredded squid, and sighed.
Even if it rains, we still have to trawl the net. I collected a net this morning because I have to sell goods later. I was afraid of delays, so I didn’t put down the net.
The net was lowered now, and two or three workers were left there to watch the normal dragging of the fishing net and the normal operation of the machine. The others returned to the rest room to rest.
After it started to rain, the sky suddenly became dark. It was obviously around 4 o'clock in the afternoon. It was still bright a moment ago, but now it suddenly became dark, as if it had fallen into the night all of a sudden, and the lights on the boat also turned on.
It's just that with his 3 eyes, he seemed to see something swishing past next to him?
When he came to his senses and looked carefully, there was nothing.
Although the sky was getting dark, there was still a little light and it was not as dark as the night. He was sure that he was not dazzled.
"How many? So fast?"
He rubbed his eyes and glanced around, but he didn't see any strange unknown objects nearby.
After watching it for a while, he gave up and turned his attention to the display screen again, guessing what kind of fish was scurrying past.
Otherwise, I would never have imagined what it would be. There are many fast fish on the sea.
Based on the information detected by the sonar, he slowly adjusted the direction of the fishing boat and continued to catch his fish.
The rain gradually became heavier, and the sky became darker little by little. At this time, the workers on the deck screamed.
Ye Yaodong couldn't hear the sound, but he could see them shouting and waving, and then they all lay on the side of the ship and watched.
He also took advantage of the situation and saw the waves splashing continuously on the sea level in the distance, and the waves were rolling violently, forming patches of white foam, which looked much more conspicuous.
"What kind of war is going on..." He muttered as he watched, his attention also distracted a little.
I didn't take it seriously at first, I just thought it was a fight between two fishes.
In this kind of weather, with strong winds and heavy rain, he didn't want to bother with it. Safety came first. Now he didn't miss two fish, he just wanted to watch it as a show.
You can't see the bustle of people on the sea, you can only watch the bustle of fish. The bustle of fish is actually quite beautiful due to natural selection.
Unexpectedly, when the fish boat was slowly moving forward according to the established track, the two fish that were fighting were left behind. Just when everyone was about to recover their minds, something black, white and black suddenly swished from behind.
The deck rushed to the bow of the ship, startling everyone.
Ye Yaodong was also shocked and jumped up, "Fuck!"
"Fuck!"
He was dumbfounded and cursed again, "You're riding on a horse!"
He immediately went out with a loudspeaker, stood on the wheelhouse, and shouted to the three workers on the deck: "Get aside and hide, don't get close..."
After the workers below screamed in shock, they were still beating their chests. They had not recovered yet and were still in shock.
After hearing what he said, he quickly stood at the door of the lounge and hid for a while.
Ye Yaodong stood on the helm in the rain, looking at the two big guys who were still struggling underneath with surprise and joy, and couldn't help but swallow his saliva.
"This is too awesome..."
I saw two super large fish entangled together below, occupying the entire bow and half of the deck. During the struggle, the fish's blood flowed freely.
One turned out to be a swordfish, swordfish, holy shit, the old man and the swordfish in the sea.
The dorsal fin on it was fluttering in the wind like a big flag, and it was pitch black, giving off a mighty and domineering aura.
This fish is known as the Flash in the water and is the top hunter in the ocean. It is so fast that it can teleport in an exaggerated way.
Huge in size, well-muscled, and ferocious in nature, it is one of the fastest swimming fish in the ocean.
Its pointed upper snout takes up a quarter of its body, and it relies on this stick to dominate the ocean.
No wonder he felt as if something swished past him while he was sitting in the cockpit when it started to rain.
If it were this fish, it would make sense. Its speed is among the best in the ocean, ranking among the best.
This one looked to be three or four meters long, twice as big as the tuna he caught some time ago.
The largest bigeye tuna he caught was less than two meters long.
The other one was a great white shark, which looked about three or four meters tall. The two were equally matched, one black and one white, forming a sharp contrast.
The two fish had rushed directly to the deck just now, and now they were still fighting there. He couldn't help but swallow his saliva just looking at them.
This is too fierce...
I saw that the tip of the swordfish's snout was deeply inserted into the belly of the great white shark. I don't know why it was not pulled out, but it was still stuck there. Both fish were struggling and twisting violently, and they were running rampant on the deck.
.
At this time, he didn't dare to let any of the workers get close. If the snout of the swordfish was pulled out from the shark's belly at any time and inserted into a person, it would kill him instantly.
This is so good, why did he rush to his boat...
Just now, he just wanted to watch the excitement, and he didn't have any evil thoughts at all...
At this time, the big flag on the sailfish's back was still swaying, as if it was waving the flag and shouting to support itself. The tip of its snout was inserted so tightly into the shark's belly, and then it allowed the white shark to roll around without pulling it out.
"You must not get close. One is a swordfish and the other is a great white shark. Just let the swordfish break free. Wherever you insert its long mouth, there will be a big hole..."
"You just hide, no one comes out without me saying anything, let them consume you first..."
"Both of these two fish can kill people, especially the black one. You must not come out to watch the fun."
Ye Yaodong shouted a few more words worriedly, fearing that someone curious would come out and take a look.
I was also worried that they would want to know the situation, so I gave them a few real-time broadcasts.
"Oh my god, it's still rolling there, and the blood is all over the deck..."
"The grass...pulled out...ah, inserted it again..."
"Oh, let me go, this fish's stick is too long to step on the horse, no wonder it bleeds so much..."
"Don't come out. I'm going to get a gun. I'll kill them first and see. When they're dead, you can come out and see. It's too late..."
His field of vision was so good that he could see everything clearly from the top, but because of the rain, his vision was a little blurry.
He was so frightened that he ran out without even having time to put on his raincoat. He only had time to put the hat from his cotton-padded jacket on his head.
"Oh my God, I'm just wondering why these two fish suddenly rushed to our boat. The swordfish was so fast..."
If you rush towards the target, wouldn't the impact be able to carry the prey to the boat with you?
This accuracy was so good, they rushed directly from their back deck to the bow of the ship before stopping. The moment they hit the bow of the ship was enough to give a great white shark a drink.
It may be that the impact of this blow caused the stick at the end of the snout to penetrate deeper, so the great white shark struggled for a long time before it could not escape so easily.
If this great white shark hadn't been big enough and its flesh thick enough, the end of its snout could have been pierced through it, and it could have been firmly nailed to the boat.
The snout of the swordfish is said to be able to pierce the steel plate of a cruise ship.
According to records, during World War II, a British oil-laden ship, the "Barbara," was sailing in the Atlantic when it was suddenly attacked by an oversized swordfish. The swordfish's "sword"-like spear stabbed
It penetrated the steel plate of the ship and seawater poured into the cabin.
Because the incident happened suddenly, the crew did not realize what happened and thought it was a torpedo attack.
After a while, the swordfish launched a second attack, piercing another steel plate. However, this time the swordfish's "sword" was also broken, losing its powerful attack weapon. The swordfish was eventually killed.
The crew captured.
Ye Yaodong was reluctant to turn his eyes away. The battle was too fierce, so he took a few more glances.
Watching the two fish wreaking havoc on his boat felt like traveling back in time to watch a blockbuster movie on this stormy, dark evening.
I said I looked at it a few more times, but in fact I only looked at it for a few seconds before I went into my lounge to look for a gun.
The prey that finally came to his door was not free of charge, and he was worried that they would struggle and fall back into the sea and run away.
Then he would fetch water from a bamboo basket but in vain.
He came out with a spear, and the bottoms were still stuck together, causing the whole ship to roll.
The blood from the great white shark's belly was washed by the rain and soaked the entire deck, which was a bit shocking to watch.
If it hadn't been for its size, it would have burped long ago. How could it have been struggling all over the ship while bleeding so much?
The stick on the swordfish's mouth is the most powerful. If it is inserted into the belly of the great white shark, it has no other attack power. The two fish can only stick together and wait for the great white shark to die.
Ye Yaodong held a loaded spear and aimed at the swordfish below.
His marksmanship is not very good, but the swordfish's body is big and the distance is not far away, making it a big target.
There was a bang of gunfire, and the swordfish shook its body, then struggled violently, and the tip of its snout was pulled out from the great white shark's abdomen.
He kept up his efforts, continued to aim, and fired another shot that hit the target directly.
Under the sting of the swordfish, it lost its direction and rolled all over the ship. As a result, its snout pierced the iron wall of the crew's lounge, causing the crew members who were hiding at the door of the lounge to scream in fright.
"ah……"
"Hangtian..."
"Ah, it's stuck...what should I do..."
"ah……"
Ye Yaodong couldn't care less about comforting him for the time being. Seeing that the great white shark was still struggling, he shot the great white shark again, then picked up the loudspeaker and said.
"Be careful and stay away. This swordfish has been hit twice. I'll hit it twice more."
He leaned out of the helm and aimed from top to bottom.
This time, the swordfish's snout was stuck on the wall of the lounge, its body was pressed against the wall, and it was suspended in mid-air. It could be hit even with its eyes closed.
After two more shots, its body was still shaking. Its life was not easily dissipated, but there was no need to waste bullets to refill it now.
One of them had been hung on the iron wall panel and had been hit by four bullets. It was almost waiting for death.
There was also a great white shark that had several holes inserted into its belly by the swordfish's snout. Blood had flowed all over the deck. It was shot again and it was still struggling to death.
The two super big fish were both on the verge of death at this time, but the skinny camel was bigger than the horse. Given their size, they would take longer to die than other fish.
Ye Yaodong picked up the loudspeaker and asked them, "How are you doing? Is anyone injured?"
The workers below collectively shouted, "No."
Then he shouted again and again.
"Scared to death..."
"Ouch, my heart skipped a beat, this fish is so fierce..."
"It's so scary. One of the long, sharp strands went through the iron wall paneling in the lounge."
Ye Yaodong couldn't see their situation, so he could only warn, "Don't come out yet, don't run around, just stay where you are. The great white shark is not dead yet, and it is still shaking and rolling around the boat."
"There is no need to be afraid of the swordfish. They are hanging on the wall. They are waiting for death, but they are not completely dead. They are still in danger. Everyone, please take it easy and stay quietly in the corner for now."
"When you are completely dead, I will notify you and let you come out. Now just calm down."
Not only did they need to relax, he also needed to relax.
His heart was still beating a little fast at this moment.
Both fishes were right under his nose. The swordfish went crazy after being shot. It even jumped up and penetrated it, directly into the lounge. He panicked, and even the workers underneath him were also shocked.
In the lounge.
If I jumped higher, would I be facing him directly?
When he entered the lounge, his heart skipped a beat, but luckily everything was fine.
At this moment, he still held the gun in his hand and pointed it back and forth at the two fish below, watching one of them rolling and the other stuck on the wall and struggling with its tail.
The rain kept washing over the deck, and the blood diluted and seeped out again.
Night has come, the surroundings are pitch dark, and the fishing boats are still operating according to the established trajectory. He has no time to look inside the cockpit at this time, so he has to fix this first.
If you deviate from the direction later, you can at most contact Zhao Chengzhou and then drive back.
Ye Yaodong stretched out his hand to wipe the rain off his face, picked up a loudspeaker and continued: "It scared me to death, okay, two big fish came up and beat me to death."
"When it just started raining, I saw something like a dark shadow running past. It was really scary. I'll change the direction later and get farther away from here. These swordfish live in groups, so I don't know if there are any nearby."
"Fortunately, it's raining. The blood of these two fish has been bleeding. They are not dead yet, and I don't know when they will be dead. The rain will wash it away and the smell of blood will be lighter..."
Chapter completed!
