Beachcombing: The beach is full of amazing seafood, but my wife won't let me get out of bed!

Wu Sui hung the last octopus in the bucket of running water on the hook and pushed down the line release switch.

The sinker, carrying the bait, quickly descended.

Lin Tao leaned against the ship's side, a cigarette between his fingers, looking rather listless.

"Brother Tao, why aren't you fishing anymore?" Wu Sui asked, turning his head.

Lin Tao exhaled a smoke ring.

"It's no fun fishing next to you. All the fish are going for your hook. I'm going to take a break."

No sooner had he finished speaking than the tip of the pole in front of Wu Sui suddenly dipped downwards.

Lin Tao's hand, holding the cigarette, froze in mid-air.

Wu Sui then pushed the electric winch pusher up.

The motor emitted a dull hum, and the spool spun rapidly.

"That's not much force, probably less than ten pounds," Wu Sui said, shaking his head as he held the pole.

Lin Tao was completely dumbfounded. Was this still fishing?

In less than five minutes, a splash appeared on the surface of the water.

A fish with a slightly slender body was pulled up.

This fish has a yellowish base color, covered with irregular dark brown stripes, and the edge of its dorsal fin has a faint yellow tinge.

Lin Tao looked closely for a long time, frowning and full of questions.

"What is this thing? A tiger grouper? It doesn't look like one."

Wu Sui was also puzzled; this fish did indeed look rather uncommon.

Big Bear strode over, carrying the hook, and peered into the water.

"It looks like oil stains."

He wasn't sure either, but after a moment he shook his head and denied it.

Once the fish was hooked and brought aboard, Chen Ping glanced at it and couldn't help but exclaim in surprise.

"Holy crap! A suspension bridge rock formation!"

Wu Sui was taken aback: "What bridge?"

"Its scientific name is *Scoideus bow-spotted*, but we call it the suspension bridge grouper here."

Ignoring his own fishing rod, Chen Ping squatted down and pointed to the striped patterns on the fish's body.

"Look at these patterns, don't they look like a series of suspension bridges connected together?"

"Is this fish valuable?"

Big Bear realized what was happening and laughed heartily as he explained to them.

"Hey kid, this thing is way rarer than that spotted rat you just saw."

"This is truly the finest sashimi. The meat is even crisper and sweeter than grouper. This is the first time I've ever seen it in person."

"As for the price, if you find a knowledgeable boss, selling one piece for every one sold is not a problem."

Wu Sui was slightly surprised to hear that this item could sell for 10,000.

But then I thought about it again and felt relieved.

The price of seafood boils down to two factors: scarcity and taste.

Even the bear couldn't recognize this grouper on the suspension bridge, which shows that it must be extremely rare.

If it tastes good, the price will definitely be high, and naturally there will be wealthy bosses who want to try it.

Chen Ping kept taking notes on the fish, but unfortunately, due to the water pressure, they definitely wouldn't survive. Otherwise, he would have bought them and taken them back to study.

Several anglers who were just about to go back to rest stopped and swarmed around.

"This fish doesn't look very big, why is it so expensive?"

"Let me do the math: sea bream, grouper, red grouper, giant grouper, rat grouper, plus this suspension bridge... how much has this handsome guy made?"

Everyone was talking at once, and the sounds of calculating accounts rose and fell.

In the end, everyone fell silent.

Comparing people is a recipe for disaster; comparing goods is a recipe for discarding them.

Wu Sui happily took out a cigarette case and distributed it to everyone.

"Brother Xiong, stop calling me 'handsome guy' from now on. My name is Wu Sui, and my friends call me Ah Sui."

Big Bear took the cigarette and grinned.

"Alright, Ah Sui, your luck is amazing. I've been at sea for over a decade, and today I've truly seen something amazing."

"From now on, you can come with my boat to go fishing at sea. You can easily make a hundred thousand a year."

Wu Sui laughed heartily and waved his hand: "Brother Xiong, I'm a fisherman on my own boat. I'm just out here for fun."

Hearing this, Da Xiong didn't ask any more questions. He chatted with Wu Sui, tied the fish's tag, and had it sent to the cold storage.

"Bosses, we only have half an hour for breakfast. Hurry up and pack up, and don't forget to grab something hot!"

The crowd gradually dispersed, and everyone returned to their fishing spots to get back to work.

Wu Sui glanced at the time, turned around, scooped a half-pound fish out of the bucket of running water, and hooked it back up.

"Ah Sui, is it still raining? Dinner's almost ready." Lin Tao yawned.

Wu Sui lowered the fishing hook: "It's half an hour, I'm just idling around anyway, what if I get another bite?"

As darkness fell, the sea breeze, carrying fine raindrops, pattered against the deck.

The rain gradually intensified, and half an hour passed in the blink of an eye.

Big Bear, wearing a raincoat, walked over from the cabin.

"Ah Sui, Boss Lin, let's go to the restaurant for dinner, it's raining harder."

Lin Tao quickly put away his rod and unplugged the power.

"Let's go, I'm starving!"

Wu Sui nodded, reached out and grasped the pole, his thumb just about to press the reel switch.

The rod tip suddenly plummeted without warning.

"Again? Looks pretty big." Lin Tao stopped in his tracks, completely stunned.

Wu Sui gripped the rod and pushed the electric winch puller to its maximum.

"This time it's a bit heavy, and it's still wriggling around underneath."

When Da Xiong saw that Wu Sui had caught another fish, he rushed over with the hook.

"Brother Xiong, I'm sorry to trouble you to keep watch again."

Big Bear waved his hand: "Don't be shy, I'm happy that you've caught so many fish."

"You all look miserable because you didn't catch much fish, and I won't earn a single extra penny from the boat tickets. Of course, I hope everyone can earn a little more."

"It's also helped promote my business. Now, when people mention my boat, they'll know that I'm lucky and have a lot of customers."

The line in the spool is gradually retracted.

Wu Sui and Da Xiong started chatting about everyday things.

Big Bear also owns shares in this ship.

He used to work on large ships, but later, in order to take care of his family, he used his savings to invest in a company and became a captain as well.

The group chatted, their eyes fixed on the tip of the pole.

Ten minutes later, Big Bear frowned: "Something doesn't look right."

Wu Sui also noticed something was wrong, turned on the radar, and felt reassured.

"It seems like a double flight."

"Hmm, I think so too. Then it probably isn't a grouper, but judging from its energy, it's hard to tell what kind of fish it is. That's strange."

They were all incredibly curious and kept peeking out to take a look.

As soon as the electric winch stopped, the moment Wu Sui raised the rod, two red plumes burst out of the water.

Big Bear glanced at it and couldn't help but start cursing.

"Selinm!"

His shout carried far and wide through the wind and rain.

Batu and Lin Tao quickly came over.

Two bright red groupers covered in blue spots are wriggling in mid-air.

They are hung on two hooks of the same sub-line, one above the other.

"Holy crap! A threesome?!" Lin Tao's voice cracked.

Wu Sui was also taken aback, and his hand paused in reeling in the fish trap.

The bear reacted extremely quickly, first hooking the larger one below with one hook, and then grabbing the gill cover of the one above with the other hand, dragging both fish onto the deck together.

Two starfish were rolling violently on the deck.

The bear squatted on the ground, looking at the two fish, and shook its head repeatedly.

"Ah Sui, this isn't just good luck, you practically slept with the Dragon King's own daughter, didn't you?"
