Rebirth 77: From Beachcombing to Becoming a Tycoon and Spoiling My Wife
Chapter 68 Ten Thousand Pounds of Tuna, Let's Start Fishing!
Yang Bai didn't want to concern himself with their thoughts, because he knew the tuna below wouldn't disappear because of their ideas.
"Alright, that's enough. Our target for today is 10,000 jin (5,000 kg). Let's start casting the nets!"
Upon hearing this, all the crew members adopted a serious and prepared demeanor.
Li Niu and his companions didn't believe it, but they could distinguish between what was urgent and what was not.
They then immediately set off, this time using large seine nets for fishing.
They all dispersed and began to cast their nets.
The four boats are arranged in a semi-circle, with one boat pulling the right-hand rope and the other three boats spaced more than ten meters apart.
The large ship sailed over, and the smaller ships took over their respective ropes until the entire giant net was released.
The four small boats began to slowly separate and spread out the net to form a large, closed circle.
The upper float floated flat on the sea surface, while the lower iron chain sank completely into the sea.
A giant 300-meter-long net was lowered vertically to a depth of 100 meters in the sea, forming a wall that blocked all the tuna in the ocean.
Once stabilized, the bottom rope was completely locked, leaving the trapped tuna with nowhere to escape.
Yang Bai sat back in his cabin and leisurely sipped his tea.
The fishing method of large seine nets simply involves letting the net hang quietly in the sea.
Tuna are carried by ocean currents and swim into the net.
There's absolutely no need to worry.
Seeing Yang Bai's confident demeanor, Li Niu asked, "Don't you want to scoop it up and check the first net? If we wait three or four hours and it's empty, we'll have wasted three or four hours."
He even doubted that Yang Bai had ever been to this area of water, after all, it was extremely risky for a ten-ton steel boat to travel to a waters fifty nautical miles away.
Naturally, there is relatively little experience in developing the open sea.
Yang Bai shook his head and picked up the newspaper.
"You don't have to wait three hours."
Li Niu rolled his eyes after hearing this and sat down angrily.
A stubborn captain like Yang Bai is destined to never listen to any advice and will only learn to heed warnings after suffering a great loss.
He sneered inwardly. Since it was so hard to persuade this damned devil, why should he bother trying?
The people on the boat waited for three hours.
Yang Bai stood on the deck and spoke.
"Everyone, begin closing in!"
The order was given, and the four small boats moved in unison, slowly approaching the main ship.
They tightened their respective ropes at a steady pace, slowly bringing the huge net together towards the bow of Yang Bai's large ship.
The four ships transferred all the ropes to the large ship, where the crew secured the ropes.
Jiang Jian directed the crew to turn the large winch, and the catch from the large seine net gradually surfaced.
Everyone's eyes were glued to the net.
They wanted to see if Yang Bai was really that amazing.
One by one, the fresh tuna were the first to surface, jumping wildly inside, but they quickly lost their strength due to the drastic change in environment.
Li Niu was stunned by what he saw, his mouth agape so wide it could fit a peach the size of a fist, and his back teeth were clearly visible.
He followed his boss for five years, rising step by step from a junior crew member to first mate.
They have developed many offshore areas over the years.
Their accumulated experience is no match for the red circles Yang Bai drew on the map!
Have all these years been a complete waste of time?
At this moment, everyone on the ship was no less shocked than Li Niu, and perhaps even more so.
At the same time, they also felt excited and happy.
If they can really catch that many tuna, their commission will naturally be substantial.
When the boss comes to fish in the future, they will definitely get their share of the profits.
Ten thousand catties of tuna a day!
This quantity is astonishing.
When the 300-meter-long giant net was fully pulled up, their hearts pounded as they looked at the huge catch under the crane.
There were all sorts of fish in there, but mostly tuna.
"What are you all standing there for? Let's put the fish in and get to work!"
They pulled down the net, and all the fish inside fell to the ground.
They piled up into a small mountain with a whoosh.
The majority of the fish are yellowfin tuna, with a small amount of small bluefin tuna.
The crew immediately rushed up to start dividing the fish, and the first ones they picked out were naturally the tuna.
To reach level one, it must be killed quickly and transferred to the cryogenic chamber.
They pulled out the tuna, and the fishmonger picked up a long iron rod and plunged it into the fish's forehead, stirring it violently several times until the fish died instantly.
Then, a steel wire more than a meter long was inserted through the hole, running along the spine to destroy the internal nerves and prevent the fish from moving around in the following time.
Then comes the bleeding, removal of the gills, and removal of the internal organs.
The processed tuna is then moved to the freezer for preservation.
This process takes no more than five minutes.
They continued to deal with the situation, while Yang Bai continued to direct the deployment of the net.
Soon it was six o'clock, and the sky was gradually darkening when the second net was hauled in.
The first batch of tuna, after being de-fleshed, weighed over 5,000 jin (approximately 2,500 kg).
More than half of the specifications.
The second net yielded even more fish than the first.
Everyone became increasingly agitated as they witnessed the situation.
It's really possible to catch 10,000 catties of tuna in a single day!
Ma Yongkang looked at the three of them and said.
"See, I told you to trust Captain Yang. No matter how he figured out where the tuna was just by drawing a circle, at least he did it now."
They all fell silent, especially Li Niu.
He had previously been certain that Yang Bai would never succeed, but reality has slapped him in the face.
Not only can they catch fish, but they can also catch 10,000 jin (5,000 kg) a day
I blushed when I thought about what he had said before. It turns out that his composure was not arrogance, but strength.
"I didn't expect Yang Bai to know so much about the sea at his age. He doesn't seem like a newcomer to this industry at all."
Li Niu gave Yang Bai a deep look and smiled bitterly.
Ma Yongkang patted him on the shoulder and said.
"They've thoroughly explored Widow's Sea, so it's normal for them to know about places like this."
"I think he must have taught him, otherwise it wouldn't make sense."
Zhang Yongsheng took out the fish gills, nibbling at the eye with his mouth.
Otherwise, it would be too illogical, even if they were crew members who controlled ships of hundreds of tons in the region.
For them, 10,000 catties of tuna a day is just too ridiculous.
Li Niu agreed with him, saying that even if they searched this sea area with their hundred-ton ships, it would take forever.
This is not just a contest of ship strength, but also involves logistical support, personnel, technology and other factors.
To do this, the initial investment is a bottomless pit.
Besides, he's just an ordinary citizen.
Regardless, Yang Bai did it.
Everyone on the field had nothing to say about Yang Bai's strength.
Yang Bai thought it was about time to return and report back.
They wanted first-grade yellowfin tuna, which, even with a freezer, wouldn't last more than a few days.
Only Grade 1 tuna is valuable.
"First Mate Li, Second Mate Ma, return to the ship and prepare to hand over the first catch!"
The two first mates immediately returned to their posts.
