Rebirth 77: From Beachcombing to Becoming a Tycoon and Spoiling My Wife

This old thing has been sitting unused for so long, it's all broken now.

Yang Bai's forehead is covered with black lines; he should have been checked beforehand.

At that moment, he wanted to slap himself.

Yang Bai quickly brainstormed, grabbed the rag he used to wipe sweat from the ground, and stuffed it directly into the interlayer of the friction pad to increase friction.

This method worked, and the line gradually came to a stop.

Yang Bai breathed a sigh of relief; now he had to change his strategy and couldn't play along with it anymore.

Yang Bai no longer chooses to play the fish for a long time to exhaust its energy, and controls the fish to prevent it from making a large sprint.

At this moment, the fish lunged outwards again.

Yang Bai simply snapped the fishing rod back onto the rod holder; even if he lost the feel and enjoyment of fishing, this was all he could do for now.

It's better than releasing the fish.

Even the biggest fish in the sea can't overcome the resistance of a 100-ton ship.

Gradually, the fish in the sea exhausted their strength, and their swimming range became smaller and smaller.

Yang Bai stood up from his chair; it was time.

He pulled out his fishing rod and lifted it every now and then to tighten the fishing line.

As the large fish in the sea gradually surfaced, Yang Bai's eyes widened in surprise.

"Bluefin, it's a bluefin tuna!"

Yang Bai laughed like a child, the bluefin tuna in front of him probably weighed two hundred pounds.

If it were in his past life, he would definitely have taken a picture and posted it on his account to show off.

Upon hearing that Yang Bai had caught a bluefin tuna, the idle people immediately gathered around.

Yang Bai definitely couldn't have pulled out the 200-pound behemoth by himself.

"A few people, come and pull it up together!"

Ma Yongkang and Li Niu immediately stepped forward.

With everyone's help, the 200-pound bluefin tuna was pulled onto the deck.

They stared at the fish with shock in their eyes; they had never seen anyone catch a 200-pound bluefin tuna.

Yang Bai was able to catch a fish the moment he touched the fishing rod; how lucky he was!

Yang Bai squatted down, idly stroking the fish, and said with a smile, "Hurry up and go to the warehouse to get the ruler."

Soon the ruler was handed to Yang Bai. He squatted down to measure it, and it was a full 1.8 meters long, the same height as an adult.

Looking at the bluefin tuna on the ground, Ma Yongkang asked, "Captain, are you planning to sell this fish?"

The seafood company can buy up to 10,000 yuan per fish.

Yang Bai glanced at the fish on the ground and nodded. "What else?"

He plans to sell some of the cuts and use three or four pounds of the best parts to make sashimi, adding a main dish for tomorrow.

"Even though I caught the fish, everyone will still get paid!"

These people are all skilled; he plans to bring them all in when he starts the company.

Giving benefits now paves the way for the future.

Everyone was delighted to hear this, as they hadn't expected Yang Bai to include what he had caught in the group.

Such a good thing could fall into their laps; this is no small sum of money, but a whopping ten thousand yuan!

"Thank you, Captain Yang."

The crowd's voices were loud and clear, and no one could stop smiling.

Zhang Yongsheng immediately stepped forward. He had always looked down on Yang Bai, but now he was truly impressed. What other captain was as magnanimous as Yang Bai?

"Captain, we'll handle this one right away, you'll be satisfied."

He immediately turned and shouted, "A few men, come help carry it over and kill it!"

Several young and strong men from the fish-killing team immediately came over, carried the fish over, and slaughtered it right away.

They wielded the knife with ease, striving for perfection.

Li Niu looked at the bluefin tuna being processed on the deck and said.

"Captain, you're really going all out."

"Why should we share the profits from fish like this?"

Yang Bai smiled and said, "Because you are all capable, believe me, we will meet again after this."

Li Niu shook his head, not understanding the meaning of Yang Bai's words.

The third net was quickly retrieved.

There are a total of 3,000 catties of tuna inside.

The target of 10,000 jin was achieved again, and the fishing boat returned to port.

Back at the port, Hou Sanli was waiting at the dock.

His primary focus right now is on tuna, so he'll have to stay up for three nights straight, but it's all worth it.

The 100-ton ship docked, and Yang Bai disembarked.

Hou Sanli asked, "How was today?"

Yang Bai nodded, "It'll definitely work. Ten thousand catties. I'll give you a surprise later."

Hou Sanli was taken aback upon hearing this.

"A surprise? What surprise?"

For him, being able to get 10,000 jin a day would be a pleasant surprise. What else could be a pleasant surprise?

You'll find out soon enough.

Yang Bai moved a chair and sat down.

Hou Sanli didn't understand the surprise he was talking about, so he shook his head to stop thinking about it and started working.

As they were doing this, one of the laborers called out, "Two more people, there's a big fish here that needs to be moved."

"A big fish?"

Hou Sanli was on patrol when he heard the words "big fish" and immediately stepped forward.

When he saw the box containing two hundred pounds of bluefin tuna, he couldn't sit still any longer.

"Holy crap, two hundred pounds of bluefin tuna, Yang Bai, how did you do that?"

If catching a regular bluefin tuna is a matter of luck, then catching a 200-pound bluefin tuna is an incredible stroke of luck.

Not to mention the coastal areas of Fujian Province, you can hardly find more than 200-pound bluefin tuna in the entire East China Sea all year round.

Yang Bai smiled faintly and said, "I caught it."

Hou Sanli's gaze remained fixed on the 200-pound bluefin tuna.

"Yang Bai, we're definitely going to get the motorcycle vouchers this time. Aren't you short of industrial vouchers? I'll apply for another fifty from my superiors right away."

This is a truly outstanding achievement, and the application would be more than enough to secure approval.

"Oh, right," Yang Bai said, pointing to the bluefin tuna, "If you're selling it separately, keep two pounds of the belly, two pounds of the mid-belly, and three pounds of lean back meat. Have someone deliver it to my house the day after tomorrow. The money will be deducted from your wages."

Hou Sanli immediately agreed.

"Okay, no problem. I want to try this 200-pound bluefin tuna. I'll personally deliver it the night after tomorrow, and I guarantee it won't lose its freshness."

He even planned to use the community's tractor to transport it down, as he probably wouldn't get to taste such a delicacy more than a few times in his lifetime.

"Okay, I was originally planning to treat everyone to a meal, and it's perfect that you're here."

Yang Bai nodded in agreement, but after thinking about it, he figured it would be better to eat at a big restaurant in the county town.

"Manager Hou, I've changed my mind. In that case, let's go directly to a big restaurant in the county town. It will save time and preserve the freshness of the food."

Bluefin tuna travels very quickly from the seafood company to the grand hotel, allowing you to enjoy it while it's still very fresh.

Now it's time to treat your subordinates to a get-together at a big restaurant in the county town.

Hou Sanli's eyes immediately lit up. "Yang Bai, that's great! I'll take care of the menu for as many people as you want."

Yang Bai patted his chest.

"I have about ten here. You can hire more if you want. I'll pay for it. Thank you for your support, manager."

"Alright, you're rich now, so I won't stand on ceremony."

Hou Sanli rubbed his hands together, eagerly anticipating the banquet the day after tomorrow.

The next day.

Yang Bai woke up and went into the cabin.

Today is the last day, and to be honest, he's a little reluctant to part with the 100-ton ship.

If he had a 100-ton ship, his current income would at least triple.
