Chapter 452. 452. Ocean: The Harvest

"...I don't think I've probably pulled such a heavy net in my life."

"Me too, how many fish are there down here!"

"If you have the strength to speak, hurry up and work harder! If you are taken into the sea later, I will definitely not save you!"

……

Several people were talking and exerting their strength. It took about ten minutes to pull up the first net of the day.

Everyone looked at the lively fish that almost occupied most of the boat, and they all froze in place.

"...Pinch me quickly, am I not dreaming???"

"Hey, it must weigh a thousand catties... No wonder I feel so heavy."

Not to mention other people, even Bai Mu, who had already predicted the harvest, did not dare to think about the four-digit harvest.

He thought he would be thankful if he could have a maximum of seven or eight hundred catties, but he didn't expect it to be so much!

You must know that usually their unskilled fishing methods are usually three to five hundred catties, or even five hundred catties is too much, which is rare once in a dozen times.

Although he was also a little surprised, but Uncle Zhang is a man who has experienced big storms after all. He calmed down first, and then arranged for everyone to deal with these fish.

It is absolutely impossible to bring all these fish back. You must know that there are only so many fish in the first net, and there are still more than a dozen nets that have not been pulled up. The total harvest is at least [-] catties.

Small ships like theirs don't have such a large carrying capacity. If the ship sinks at that time, it will really be over.

"You two go pick out the fish with pearls, you two throw all the fish without pearls back, and the rest of you continue to pull the net..." After three or two times the arranged work, everyone recovered from the shock, Then get busy with your own work.

After an hour and a half, all the fishing nets were finally collected, and most of the fish without pearls had been lost.

Now the people on the boat have a fishy smell all over their bodies, which is sticky and uncomfortable.

Originally, this feeling was quite uncomfortable, but as soon as I thought that what I saw in front of me were not fish, but a lot of pearls, my mood immediately improved a lot, and I was motivated to work.

Best of all, they have clean hot showers to take tonight!
After pulling the net, Ran Ran went to help the big guys prepare hot water by herself.

Once the seawater is loaded, the soap is soaked, and as the impurities of the salt crystals precipitate, the water on it gradually becomes clear... and then just pour the water out and heat it up.

With a large wooden barrel of more than ten catties and a hundred catties of water, Ran Ran can move and lift as soon as he wants to move by himself, and when doing these things, his face does not blush, he is not out of breath, and his hands do not shake. The name of the infinite female man.

After the outsiders picked out all the fish with pearls, the hot water was ready.

Ran Ran was taken care of, and her body wasn't too messy, so she let the big guys go in and clean herself first.

She and the rest of the people began to count the number of pearls.

"There are fifteen in this net, and twenty-eight in the two nets over there..."

"I have all 71 here."

"Then if I count the ones from my side, wouldn't there be a total of 150 or so?"

"To be precise, it is 150 six."

"...This... is not wrong, right?"

Everyone looked at each other, looking at the basket full of pearls in front of them. Although they talked about the possibility of miscalculation, in fact, their eyes were bright like light bulbs.

Shiraki did the math, they threw sixteen invisible nets this time, and they used up almost four and a half boxes of bait. Rounding off, the consumption of bait alone was 23 pearls.

And the materials consumed on this voyage, such as food and water, changed clothes, worn tools, consumables for cleaning the ship, and the energy used by the ship, etc...

Even if everything is added up, it will only cost fifty pearls.

In other words, the pure profit gained in these few hours alone already has 83 pearls. On average, each person has eight pearls, which is 240 pearls a month...

"Hiss..." Bai Mu took a breath.

In fact, he still underestimated it.

The harvesting of this batch took less than five hours at most. If they were fast enough, they could harvest up to three times a day. Then there would be no more than 83 pearls...that would be more than 300 pearls!

Still the kind of pure profit!

He could even recover all the money he spent today in one day!
Of course, this is actually just an ideal income, after all, the fish in each area is limited.

They have caught so many pearl fish here, if they catch more, the number of fish may not be less, because they put back all the fish without pearls, but the number of fish with pearls must not be so many.

If you still want such a harvest, you must sail to other areas.

This back and forth, the time cost plus the cost of ship operation is actually not low, but it is still terrifying.

"Captain, this... shall we still throw the net?" Seven or eight pairs of eyes stared at him, and Bai Mu suddenly felt creepy.

But he is also thinking about this issue very seriously.

In the end, after deliberation and referring to Uncle Zhang's opinion, we decided to go to another shallow sea that is relatively close.

Drive there first, then rest for the night, get up tomorrow morning and throw the net, harvest tomorrow afternoon, and then go home with the stuff.

This arrangement is mainly to maximize profits.

After all, they just released a bunch of fish without pearls, and even if they throw the net in a hurry, there is a high probability that those unlucky fish will be fooled.

In this way, not only wasting time and energy, but also wasting bait.

And the supplies they carried were three days old, plus the fish season was imminent, so they should really go back early... They made such a choice due to various factors.

……

……

With the last fishing net being put away, Shiraki's short voyage came to a perfect end.

Because they were in a hurry to go home, they didn't even have time to clean up the things on the boat, so they left early.

When we docked, we happened to bump into a lot of people who came to the beach to collect their nets. Those people were also surprised to see a boat sailing on the fish season.

Especially after seeing that they have harvested a lot, I am even more envious.

"Captain, do you think that is Captain Shiraki?"

Bei Hua squinted his eyes and looked in the direction the man said, as expected, he saw a familiar figure.

Like Shiraki, Bei Hua is also a captain. The relationship between the two ships is average, neither good nor bad. The reason for their acquaintance is that they cooperated once during the previous voyage.

After that time, I haven't been in contact with him much... I never thought that I would run into him at this time.

"It's him." Bei Hua said lightly, and then his eyes shifted to the fishing nets on the boat that hadn't had time to put them away.
