Lagoon, lagoon, small island, the scenery is beautiful, but a little lonely.
Along the west side of Butari Atoll, we pass by an isolated island with patches of coconut trees...
There is a trimaran boat next to the island.
The boat was parked on the reef of the lagoon, and two dark-skinned men on the boat were setting gillnets.
Chen Yuan and the others passed by the lagoon. When the people on the boat saw it, they waved their hands and shouted loudly...
Chen Yuan was standing beside the boat, but he didn't understand what they were saying, so he ignored them.
This is supposed to be about selling fish to them.
Butari Atoll, strictly speaking, should be a lagoon.
"We're still far apart. It's estimated that we won't be able to come over to meet you until twelve o'clock in the evening."
"I'll call you later." Chen Yuan smiled and took the phone and looked at the sky.
Chen Yuan touched his forehead with one hand and said with a smile, "What are you doing?"
However, this must have been an atoll before, but it has been seriously eroded by sea water. The lagoon is shallow and has many fish, including lobsters and crabs.
"OK."
Chen Yuan looked at these complicated ocean current diagrams and was puzzled.
"What do you want to eat tonight?" Zhou Sheng asked.
"Fuck..." Zhou Sheng turned over and pressed over him.
"You've been studying the ocean current diagram for a day and you still don't understand it?"
Tonight is a crescent moon, there are so many stars and they are so bright.
"Splendid lobster, also known as flower lobster. There are also rock lobsters...live and frozen." Chen Yuandao: "The price is much cheaper."
"It's not the same level..."
"Let me go, why are you so strong?"
The sun was about to set, so Zhou Sheng stopped the boat and prepared for last night.
"What are you doing?" Yan Xiaoxi asked.
All the way south, after seeing no fishing boats on the sea, Chen Yuan marked a few points.
No high-speed yacht has low fuel consumption.
Luo Laosi laughed and said, "I'm joking too. Let's pay close attention during this period and make more money."
It was getting late, so Zhou Sheng got up and said, "I'm going back to sleep. You can watch over Master and the others."
Chen Yuan opened the chart: "North of Tapiwa Island, 35 nautical miles."
"Let's go see it together, three of us."
Chen Yuan was outside blowing the sea breeze and drinking beer.
"What are you looking at me for?" Zhou Sheng also looked at Chen Yuan.
"I'll go play for a while and then go back to my country. I'm not in a hurry anyway..."
Twin-engine economical cruise, the most fuel-efficient mode, with a speed of 27 knots and a fuel consumption of 5.5 liters per nautical mile...the fuel consumption in one hour is almost 150 liters.
"There is pork belly in the fresh-keeping cabinet. It has been thawed and made into twice-cooked pork." Chen Yuandao.
Zhou Sheng chuckled and said: "If I get married in the future, to be honest, I don't want to go on a long voyage. My wife and children are on the bed, how wonderful this life is."
"It's only 45 yuan per pound. Wang Peng told my dad the wholesale price, but my dad went to other places to ask, and it was all more expensive."
How to say it.
"I think you look handsome."
"Where can we go to play after the fishing season is over?" Gao He asked.
Actually, the fuel consumption is pretty good.
Looking at the stars, Chen Yuanyou glanced at Zhou Sheng, this guy can actually think about life? Incredible, incredible.
"casual."
"If you mind, I don't mind either... Your boyfriend is so handsome, I won't suffer."
Luo Laosi said ‘hmm’ and said: “We are not in a hurry, we even want to go to the island to do some repairs.”
"Would you like to add another one, a party of four?"
Zhou Sheng went to cook.
"How much does it cost per pound?"
"Ha, I'm very handsome..."
"Potato slices, onions, whatever." Chen Yuan continued to study the ocean current map.
The fuel tank capacity of Dabai is large enough. If you include the fuel tank capacity, it can work for several days with a full tank of fuel.
"Luo Hao gave me two ocean current maps. One is from more than 20 years ago, and the other is more recent. The two ocean current maps are different, and I am looking for patterns." Chen Yuan said.
Dabai's boat is good at everything, but it consumes a lot of fuel.
Chen Yuan still remembered the light he saw before he passed out at the bottom of the sea, but he didn't know what that thing was. Just before he fell into coma, the light seemed to have entered his body.
Um……
"If you say casual, then I'll cook instant noodles."
Chen Yuan let go of Zhou Sheng: "Tell me, what exactly did we encounter in that accident in the Antarctic waters?"
"What?" Chen Yuan turned around: "Thinking about...life for a while?
It's been over a year and I still don't understand.
"Idiot."
After dinner, it was already late at night.
"Chen Yuan, Zhou Sheng." Luo Laosi's voice came from the radio.
"We will talk about the future later. Take care of the present first..." Chen Yuandao said: "Work hard for a few years, and when you earn enough money, you will retire."
Zhou Sheng took out the pork and asked, "What should I use to cook it again?"
"What lobster?"
"I was joking just now." Gao He said: "There are only a few days left in the fishing season. During this time, hurry up and catch fish. Wait until the fishing season is over before you play again."
In the evening, Chen Yuan and the others arrived at point 1, released a drone for a quick survey, and then went to point 2...
Dabai ran over quickly.
"Then let's go together." Gao He said.
"Wait for me to come over and I'll watch it with you." Yan Xiaoxi said, and then came He Huan's business: "Hey, I want to watch it too, what should I do?"
Chen Yuan returned to the cockpit and turned on the microphone: "Here."
"Have you found any pattern?"
"Chen Yuan and the others are going to Fiji."
The density of fish is good, but the number of tuna is too small.
Chen Yuan is much stronger than Zhou Sheng. If it hadn't been for the accident in Antarctica, Chen Yuan really wouldn't be able to defeat Zhou Sheng, but now...
Chen Yuan shrugged, no one would envy such a life.
Zhou Sheng made phone calls from behind for a while, then came over and lay down next to Chen Yuan: "Brother-in-law."
Nowadays, fishing boats are not very far from Butari Island, and local fishermen will sell some goods and catch to nearby fishing boats.
"Yeah." Zhou Sheng nodded.
"I just thought about life for a while." Zhou Sheng said.
At this time, there are no fishing boats in the south, or there are very few fishing boats in the south. Some of the movements of the ocean currents are regular, and some are not.
"What?" Chen Yuan looked over.
"Some have rules, some don't."
"This... I think I have a savings of over 100 million. Only when I have money can I live the life I want," Chen Yuan said.
After waiting for Zhou Sheng to return, Chen Yuan took out his phone and called Yan Xiaoxi.
There was nothing to do in the evening, so we just chatted on the radio.
“How much is enough?”
"That makes sense. The rest doesn't matter, save 100 million first." Zhou Sheng chuckled and handed the satellite phone to Chen Yuan: "Can't you make a call?"
"How do I know?" Zhou Sheng looked at Chen Yuan: "When I saw you, you were glowing, fluorescent... I guess the reason why I mutated is probably the reason why I hugged you at that time."
"Where have you been?"
Every day, unless he was particularly busy, Chen Yuan would call Yan Xiaoxi. Sometimes, Yan Xiaoxi would also call Chen Yuan...
Another strange voice came: "Does Xiao Xi's boyfriend have Wang Jianshuai?"
Chen Yuan easily pressed Zhou Sheng down and began to hold it.
Chen Yuandao: "Fiji."
Today there are only Chen Yuan and Zhou Sheng on the boat, and Yang Xun and the others are working on the Big Fish.
"I just came out of the library and was about to go home. By the way, my dad bought some grouper from your company earlier. He told me that the price was very cheap. Let me ask if it is the wholesale price?"
The main fuel tank is 7000 liters and can be used for about 46 hours in economical cruising.
"Life is something you can think about?" Chen Yuan said with contempt on his face.
"This should be the wholesale price at the port. For those of us fishing boats returning from the ocean, the price of fish is cheaper than that of offshore fish. After all, these fish have been frozen..." Chen Yuandao: "Ask me if you want lobster.
The lobsters on the side are also very cheap. If necessary, I can help you get some back."
This price must be an internal friendly price.
Until now, Chen Yuan is very satisfied with Dabai. Among yachts of the same level, Dabai’s yacht can be considered very economical.
Dual engine cruising, the weather was calm today, the movement was great, and it was very stable.
Chen Yuan returned to the cabin, opened his laptop in the living room, and continued to study the ocean currents in the Gilbert Islands.
High-speed cruising, speed of 44 knots, fuel consumption per nautical mile is 6.8 liters... fuel consumption in one hour is almost 300 liters.
"Look at the stars." Chen Yuan said: "The night sky here is extremely clear and beautiful."
"Aren't you going to follow the fishing boat back home?"
"Oh shit, you..." Yan Xiaoxi yelled.
The latest ocean current map only covers the north of the Gilbert Islands, not the south.
"Don't worry, I haven't found a better location yet," Chen Yuan said.
"Okay, let me ask."
Kiribati has an airport, and the tuna caught will occasionally be flown back by plane.
There are quite a few Chinese fishing boats fishing in Kiribati, mainly longline fishing boats. If you need lobsters, you can fly them back by air, which is at least one-third cheaper than in China.
Chen Yuan and Yan Xiaoxi chatted for a long time and hung up the phone. Chen Yuan stretched and saw a bright light on the sea. That boat should be the Big Fish.
