Chen Liuqi was stunned for a moment, then slapped his thigh.

"Oh dear, Bayi, we seem to have forgotten something. There's no ice in the freezer. If we move the fish in, they'll easily die."

Niu Bayi chuckled.

"Don't worry, everything will be fine. Just put them in the freezer and move them further in. I guarantee none of them will die."

Indeed, with the space, seawater was quietly poured into each white square.

They were guaranteed to be still lively and energetic when they arrived at the city dock.

Soon, the live water tank was filled, and everyone ran into the larger freezer to take out the white boxes one by one.

The white checkered bucket was a square bucket, quite large, about 1.5 meters long and 1 meter wide. They poured some seawater into it and then threw in large, big flounder.

Fill one square, then move more in.

During this process, Niu Bayi quietly poured some unique spatial seawater into each white square.

He even took advantage of everyone's inattention to store several earthfish in his spatial dimension, allowing them to swim freely in the vast ocean within.

Before this, every time Niu Bayi went out to sea to fish, he would secretly take some fish and throw them into the ocean.

Space resources are now quite abundant, and it's especially easy to grow taller.

At this moment, Niu Bayi also noticed that the giant clam shell that had been put in earlier had now become white and lustrous, and even increased in size, completely turning into jade.

It even seems to possess a more sacred quality than ordinary jade-like giant clam shells.

This is a giant clam shell nourished by the spiritual energy of the ocean; it seems it won't be long before it can be sent to Yang Qianjin.

Niu Ba withdrew his divine sense from the space.

Seeing everyone working so enthusiastically, even Su Puyue and He Zhenzhen were busy and happy, with satisfied smiles on their faces.

As he followed the others, putting the flounder into the white-framed container, he shouted, "Hurry up, everyone! Once we've got these fish sorted out, let's tidy up the net and lower it again. Let's see how many flounder we can catch in the second net!"

Chen Liuqi shouted excitedly, and said with great enthusiasm, "On August 1st, we caught over a thousand catties of flounder in our first net. If we do a second net, a third net, and so on, we can really earn five figures from this trip!"

Niu Bayi nodded emphatically.

"Don't worry, if you follow me, you won't be treated unfairly."

All the burly men shouted "Good!" and collected all the flounder, then tidied up the trawl net and threw it back into the sea.

About forty minutes later, the second net was launched, hoisted into the air, and then moved onto the deck.

The net was still bulging, with countless flounder struggling inside.

Judging by its weight, it's definitely no worse than the top-ranked net.

Sure enough, once the large net was cast, hundreds and thousands of flounder almost completely submerged the deck, weighing over a thousand kilograms again.

Two nets were cast, and there was already a harvest of more than a ton.

Boss Shen and the others in the distance were all keeping a close eye on this side.

Mr. Shen continued looking through his binoculars, saying incredulously, "The first net caught over a thousand pounds of fish. I thought the second net might catch far fewer, but... how did we catch so many again?"

"We've fished in that area before, but there weren't this many. This is really strange."

The burly man said, "Who cares if it's strange or not? We'll just go and tell those guys that this territory is ours, and all the fish we catch are ours."

Seven or eight burly men nearby nodded vigorously upon hearing this, their faces filled with greed.

Boss Shen gave a sinister smile.

"Let them fish all they want, fish as much as they can. If they can't catch anything, we'll go up again. No rush. Everyone, get some rest. There are a few burly-looking men over there. It looks like there'll be a fierce battle later."

The burly man said disdainfully, "We outnumber them. They only have five, we have eight. We can definitely beat them. Plus, we have two pretty women, haha!"

"If these people don't know what's good for them, kill the men and throw them into the sea to feed the sharks. We can take turns playing with the two women. Wouldn't that be great?"

The group of burly men let out another smug laugh, which was also lewd.

On Niu Bayi's side, everyone worked with all their might, catching net after net of flounder.

However, the first three nets each weighed over a thousand kilograms, but the weight decreased significantly after the fourth net.

By the time they caught the sixth net, it weighed only three or four hundred pounds.

If you calculate the weight of the first three nets combined, it's probably around 3,500 jin (1,250 kg).

The last three nets weigh about 2,500 jin, so it's possible to get 5,000 jin.

Everyone was exhausted by now.

These are all physically demanding tasks, and every second counts. The fear is that the flounder, once out of the water, might accidentally lose its life.

What do you call this dead fish? You call it a dead fish. Dead fish don't fetch such a good price.

Niu Bayi knew when to stop and slapped his hand away.

"Alright, these six nets have yielded a full 5,000 catties of fish. Although flounder isn't particularly valuable, at 3 yuan per catty, we can sell it for 15000 yuan."

"We'll come back in a while and catch a lot more fish. We won't do anything that will cut off our lineage."

Everyone nodded in agreement.

Next, the fish were put away, and the deck and all the equipment were cleaned.

Before we knew it, it was almost noon.

Niu Bayi said, "Let's rest here for a while, then get some flounder and see how to cook them. There's a kitchen on this fishing boat."

"It's convenient to cook anything, and we should also really taste how delicious the dried flounder we worked so hard to catch is."

Upon hearing this, everyone's stomachs rumbled, and they all nodded excitedly in agreement.

Su Puyue also raised one hand high.

"I'll be the chef. Although I haven't been out to sea to fish much, I'm very good at cooking fish. This fresh and tender flounder, cut off pieces of fish meat, pan-fry them, and sprinkle some lemon juice on them. I don't know how delicious it will be."

"I see we have a few cans of beer in the kitchen. We can use the beer to bake the dried flounder. It'll be delicious, fragrant and tender."

He Zhenzhen's mouth was practically watering as she listened.

"Okay, Sister Puyu, let's make these two kinds of fish. My mom brought a lot of vegetables and fruits with her when she boarded the ship yesterday. There's a winter melon, so I'll use it to make flounder soup."

"Tear the fish into strips, fry them in oil until golden brown and crispy, then add sliced ​​winter melon to make soup."

"This smells and tastes delicious."

Then, she mentioned several of her specialty fish dishes.

This made Chen Liuqi and the others drool so much that it almost flowed from their eyes, forming a small waterfall.

Niu Ba kept waving his hand.

"Alright, alright, stop talking. If you keep talking, my mouth will dry. You and Puyu seem to be in good spirits. Liuqi and I will take a rest. You guys go catch some fish and cook them."

"Get it done quickly, let's have a big meal, and then head back."

Everyone cheered excitedly.

Suddenly, a voice came from outside the side of the boat.

"You still want to eat fish? You're eating my fish! Did you even ask for my permission?"
