The fishing boat made a long circle and ran for two hours before returning to the harbor.
It was past eleven when we returned to Zhapo.
It was calm and quiet inside the harbor, as if the hustle and bustle outside had nothing to do with me.
When the fishing boat docked, all the ice shards covering the big Malin melted, leaving only some relatively large ice cubes.
Wei Tao stood on the shore, and there were several well-dressed men beside him.
Wei Tao jumped onto the boat, saw the fish, and said, "Oh, it really weighs more than four hundred kilograms. Where did you catch it?"
"Over there at Dafanshi." Lin Xinhai said.
"Niu...it's such a strong wind and he can run so far." Wei Tao gave a thumbs up and introduced several bosses to Lin Xinhai.
three people.
One is the owner of the Oriental Secret Resort, and the other two are seafood shop owners. One of them, Chen Yuan, they know... is the owner who bought the big eel at a high price last night, Luo Wen.
The three of them also came to the boat and inspected the fish.
After discovering that there was only a small amount of blood around the fish body, Luo Wen said: "This fish was not bled?" But it was wrong, the fish's tail had obviously been cut with a knife, and the gills had also been cut...
"Bleeding." Lin Xinhai said, "Professional level."
"Brother Hai used to be a distant-water fisherman. These two, Chen Yuan and Zhou Sheng, are Brother Hai's apprentices. They are absolutely professional in handling large fish," Wei Tao said.
If such a big fish is in cold water, it would have to be dragged alive for more than ten minutes before being bled.
But here, it is summer, the sea water temperature is high... and there are carnivorous fish, Chen Yuan only dares to kill them and drag them for a short time after bleeding.
But there shouldn't be many sharks in the waters here. The bloodletting of Damalin went very smoothly this time...
After several bosses looked at the fish, Chen Yuan and Zhou Sheng turned over the big Malin, and the others continued to observe.
Such a big Malin is very rare.
Not to mention Jiangyang in recent years, even in Guangdong... no one has caught such a big marlin. If you go to the Fisheries Expo, the price can be over 100,000.
But there has been no fishery expo recently...
Everyone has checked both sides of the fish, and they are very beautiful.
The resort owner said: "I can give you one hundred and thirty. After opening the fish, I will add another hundred if the meat is of high quality."
Another seafood shop owner also quoted a price: "One hundred and eighty."
Luo Wen took a few photos and sent them to his client, saying: "Wait for me for a few minutes..." After making a few calls, Luo Wen said: "Two hundred."
It's all a fixed price, no one raises the price.
Lin Xinhai looked at Zhou Sheng.
Zhou Sheng nodded slightly, looked at Chen Yuan and said, "What do you think?"
"Two hundred yuan, that's about it," Chen Yuandao said.
This fish may be sold more expensively, but they have no sales channels...
"Deal." Zhou Sheng said to Luo Wen.
Rowan smiled and said, "Besides this fish, did you catch anything else?"
"There are still a few giant mackerels," Zhou Sheng said.
"Okay, my car is here, help me load it." Rowan took his cell phone and looked at the big marlin again.
Luo Wen's car is a refrigerated truck. He came here yesterday to purchase goods from Wei Tao... He packed up the things in the morning and set off. After hearing a 400-pound big marlin, he turned around and returned.
.
Chen Yuan and Zhou Sheng carried the fish to the shore, loaded it into a truck and went to a nearby seafood wholesaler to weigh it.
The road not far away attracted many onlookers.
After weighing, it was 441 pounds.
After the fish was put on the boat, Chen Yuan and Zhou Sheng estimated that the fish weighed about 400 kilograms.
441 pounds, not bad.
The length of 3.6 meters and the weight of 441 pounds are a little above average. Overall, this fish is still on the thin side...
The owner of the resort quoted a price of 130 yuan, depending on the quality of the fish. If it was top quality, it would be 230 yuan per catty.
There is no need to bet on the quality of the meat just for the 30 yuan price difference. Besides, they can also see that the meat quality of this fish is average, and they don't dare to bet on it.
If this fish weighs more than 500 kilograms, Chen Yuan and the others will definitely charge upwards of 300 yuan.
After seeing the weight of the fish, Luo Wen smiled and said: "88,200 yuan, I will give you 90,000 yuan. Remember to contact me if you have good products in the future."
"Okay." Zhou Sheng took the nine bundles of hundred-yuan bills and nodded with a smile.
When the fish was loaded onto the car, the crowd of people watching dispersed after talking about it.
Back in the car, Zhou Sheng gave three bundles of money to Chen Yuan and three bundles to Lin Xinhai, saying, "I made a fortune today. I made 30,000 yuan in one morning. The fish here are really expensive."
"It took several years for a large marlin to weigh more than 400 kilograms to appear." Lin Xinhai returned the money to Zhou Sheng and said, "I'm not short of money. You two should divide the money."
Chen Yuan returned 20,000 yuan and left 10,000 yuan, saying, "I will use 10,000 yuan as gas expenses, and you can keep the rest."
"How can this be so embarrassing? It's impossible..." Zhou Sheng chuckled and waffled for a while, then said: "If you don't accept it, I won't go to sea with you in the future."
"Then...I'll take ten thousand," Lin Xinhai said.
"Master bought the fishing rod we used today," Chen Yuan said.
"The fishing rod I gave you..."
"Take it." Seeing Zhou Sheng hand over the money again, Chen Yuan said helpfully.
You can't always take advantage of Master. We will still spend a lot of time together in the future.
After wrangling for a while, Lin Xinhai finally accepted the money: "Okay." Lin Xinhai smiled, threw the money in the box on the center console, and said, "I can earn tens of thousands after going to sea for a few hours...
…Fishing still has a bright future.”
"I saw circling seabirds today and wanted to go out and try my luck." Chen Yuan said with a smile, "I didn't expect to be so lucky."
The first time he saw seabirds in the morning, he thought of yellowfin tuna. In some cases, yellowfin tuna would also appear offshore...but it wasn't actually that close. It only took three hours to run back and forth.
, dozens of nautical miles offshore.
After the master collected the money, Zhou Sheng gave Chen Yuan the 20,000 yuan that Chen Yuan had returned before, and said: "I thought about it, running a fishing boat by myself has no future, so it would be better to follow you. I plan to invest in you
fishing boat, you still want it from me."
"Yes, of course I do." Chen Yuan said with a smile.
"How about I invest half of the money in the fishing boat and take 40% of the shares."
"Fifty percent, split equally."
Zhou Sheng waved his hand: "Forty percent, I've already taken advantage."
When Chen Yuan was in the ocean-going fleet, his salary was nearly twice that of Zhou Sheng. The most important thing was that he could find fish.
I don’t know if this ability is due to luck or skill, it’s just very mysterious.
Whether it’s fishing or fishing, those who know how to find fish are YYDS.
Zhou Sheng's previous idea was that after his parents came over, he would buy a fishing boat or boat... and then the family would fish.
But after thinking about it for the past few days, my parents went fishing together, which was too hard. Not everyone can bear the bumps on the boat...
Then fishing or fishing requires cooperation.
Chen Yuan wanted Zhou Sheng to join the team. The effect of the two of them plus one is definitely greater than two. What's more, the two of them are different from ordinary people now, and after so many years of friendship, they are still brothers and buddies who can survive life and death.
After what happened in the Antarctic waters, Chen Yuan had an inexplicable awe and fear of the sea. With Zhou Sheng going to sea together, Chen Yuan would feel much more at ease.
"Master, would you like to join our fishing boat?" Chen Yuan said.
"Wait until you are ready to change to a bigger boat. This fishing boat is too small now..." Lin Xinhai said with a smile.
