Chapter 193: Nothing to do but go to the Three Treasures Palace
On the second day of going to sea, the crew members who were sleeping woke up to the smell of food in the kitchen. When they walked out of the rest cabin one after another, they looked at Zhuang Haiyang, who had already gotten up early, and no one knew that when they were asleep last night, Zhuang Haiyang had already gone to the sea once.
Eating the breakfast carefully prepared by Zhou Hongjie, the crew members couldn't help but praise a few words. Except for Zhou Yang and Lin Xin, who knew that Zhou Hongjie had received bonuses other than his salary these two times, the other crew members did not know how much bonus they had paid.
Even if the crew asked curiously, Zhou Hongjie just smiled and said, "I won't talk about it if I don't have you as much!"
In Zhou Yang's opinion, if you don't give bonuses to other captains, I believe that others can't blame anything. After all, Zhou Hongjie is responsible for cooking with the boat, and he usually does not participate in fishing operations, and he receives a dead salary every month.
Since Zhuang Haiyang affirmed his work, he gave him an additional bonus. Will the other crew members be blushing? Will they think that Zhou Hongjie is only responsible for cooking, why should he get such a high bonus?
The share is what they deserve, so why can't Zhuang Haiyang give out more bonuses?
If you really encounter a crew member who thinks like this, it will also cause conflicts. To avoid these accidents, it is better not to say anything. What's more, what does the bonus have to do with these crew members?
Zhuang Haiyang is still very satisfied with Zhou Hongjie's practice of keeping secrets. In fact, he has never been stingy, but he also does not want to be used to a group of greedy crew members because of his generosity.
Fortunately, at present, it seems that the comrades-in-arms he recruited and the crew members that Zhou Yang helped recruit are all honest people who know Entu Bao. As long as they work hard, Zhuang Haiyang doesn't mind taking them to make a little money.
After eating, everyone began to change their clothes, and Zhou Yang also said in a timely manner: "Ready to anchor!"
Zhou Yang, who put away the lowered anchor and started the fishing boat, began to drive towards the sea where the crab pots were thrown last night. Zhuang Haiyang, who was carrying a rope fork, still began to borrow a rope fork to pull the crab pots located in the sea next to the boat onto the boat.
As the crab pots were pulled up one by one, looking at the crabs crowded with crab pots, the crew also said happily: "It seems that this trip to sea has made a good start." This time, we can return with a full cabin of fish and crabs. ”
In the face of the crabs bursting the cage, the crew also knew that there must be a lot of harvest today. As they expected, every crab was full. Baskets of crabs, after being sorted and bundled, were thrown into the corresponding water tanks one after another.
The remaining crabs, which did not meet the standards, were immediately thrown back into the sea by the crew. Some of the other seafood that got into the crab pot and was fished up together, except for expensive seafood like moray eel, the rest will be picked out by Zhou Hongjie.
Normally, fishing boats go out to sea to buy only some vegetables and pork or beef. The seafood ingredients are basically freshly caught and eaten. Even if they ate a bit too much, but in the face of this fresh ingredient, the crew was still very satisfied.
After a busy morning, Zhuang Haiyang discussed with Zhou Yang the sea area to go to in the afternoon. The rest of the crew also began to wash briefly after cleaning the fishing boat. When it was time for the meal to open, another sumptuous seafood feast awaited them.
If you don't want to eat seafood, there are other vegetarian dishes and meat dishes to choose from. I love seafood, and the pots of cooked seafood are enough for the crew to enjoy to their heart's content. Although it is a bit wasteful every time, Zhuang Haiyang still feels that he should prepare more.
In his words: "There can be leftovers, but there must be no less." The work on the ship is very hard, and if you can't even eat enough, how can you work? You can prepare more meals and throw them away if you can't finish eating. When it's time to waste, it's still going to be wasted!"
In order to ensure that the crew can eat well, Zhuang Haiyang also gives high standards in terms of food. At least in Zhou Yang's opinion, if Zhuang Haiyang closes the door a little, he can actually save a lot of money in the purchase of daily necessities.
However, when Zhuang Haiyang purchases these things, he often chooses ingredients with more expensive prices and better quality. In Zhou Yang's words, such a kind boat boss, the entire town is estimated to not be able to find a few.
At least Zhou Yang, who has been a fishing boss for many years, asked himself to ask the crew to go to sea to help with fishing in his early years, and he has never been so generous as Zhuang Haiyang. In addition to food, tobacco and alcohol are all openly served. At this point, he is also ashamed of himself!
After eating, everyone took a lunch break according to the old rules, except for the crew who were not on duty at night, they needed to watch for a while at noon, so that the crew on duty at night could have a good rest. Zhuang Haiyang is the same, he can't move the thunder at noon and want to sleep.
The mental energy consumed every day is basically recovered by sleeping. Up and down, for the habit of lunch break, the crew who followed the sea slowly got used to it. Taking a nap for lunch and working in the afternoon is indeed more energetic.
In the afternoon, after finding the sea area to trawl, Zhuang Haiyang still searched in the nearby sea. After confirming that the fish found have the value of fishing, he will release the Dinghaizhu and attract the fish to the trawl encirclement.
Seeing the schools of fish dragged onto the boat, the crew felt that there were not many rare marine fish. But they all know that expensive seafood is so easy to catch. So how can such seafood be sold at a high price?
After cleaning up the fish caught in the first net, looking at the sea fish stocked in the water tank, Zhu Junhong said with a little disappointment: "There are not many valuable goods! If you can still catch tuna and big yellow croaker, then it will be interesting!"
"If tuna and big yellow croaker are so easy to catch, it is estimated that it will not be worth much. It is already a blessing and joy to be able to catch so many groupers. Be a man to be content! If others have this harvest, it is estimated that they will already laugh and blossom. ”
Listening to Zhu Junhong's unwillingness, the old crew felt very calm. Compared to other fishing boats, the catch of a week at sea is pitiful. The efficiency of Zhuang Haiyang's trawl is indeed worth rejoicing and rejoicing.
Facing the jokes of the old crew, Zhu Junhong also smiled and said: "That's right! Expensive fish, sometimes you really have to try your luck!"
After a busy day's work, everyone began to fill the crab pots with bait again. We will wait until the crab pot is finished before today's work is over. The crew already knows and is familiar with the work on board.
On the other hand, Zhuang Haiyang, who is the fishing boss, only needs to be responsible for watching the sea and looking for fish and crabs every time. When Zhuang Haiyang found a place to put the crab pot again, everyone also began to get busy, and threw the crab pot filled with bait into the sea.
After doing this, Zhuang Haiyang stood on the deck and said towards the cockpit: "Uncle Zhou, make a place to anchor nearby, and spend the night nearby today." Others can go back to the cabin to change clothes, wash their hands and prepare for dinner. ”
"Okay! It's dinner time again! This day, it seems to be going by so fast!"
For the harvest of the first day, everyone is actually quite satisfied. In this case, they will be able to return to the town for a maximum of three days. And the money that was finally distributed should be about the same as the first time I went to sea.
Although the money was distributed more for the second time, the old crew and a group of comrades-in-arms knew that this situation was unavoidable. They should be satisfied every time they return with a full load. Earn 30,000 yuan at a time, and the income is enough to make people blush!
Sure enough, after the crab pots were harvested on the morning of the third day, in addition to the water tank where the fish were fed, some live fish could also be stocked, and the sea fish that had been trawled were already piled up in the frozen storage. The water tank where crabs are raised, and the crabs are also densely crowded.
If you can't fit it anymore, why keep drifting at sea?
"Uncle Zhou, set sail home! In the evening, you should be able to arrive in Hong Kong, right?"
"It should be!"
"Okay then, I'm going to have to work hard for you. Others, wash your hands and eat, rest in peace and get ready to go back to Hong Kong!"
"Good!"
In the face of the fishing boats that returned to the port after four days at sea, the fishermen who received the news and waited at the fishing port also felt very admired when they looked at the baskets of freshly fished seafood. In their opinion, Zhuang Haiyang's fishing efficiency is really not said.
Although they were curious, these fishermen knew that even if Zhuang Haiyang had any unknown skills, it was impossible to reveal them to them. In other words, they have a secret to fishing, can they tell outsiders?
They are already thankful to have a share of the benefits. As the fish and crabs were sold out, everyone took the car to the night food stall to enjoy a celebration feast before the disbandment. They can also get a lot of the final benefits this time.
When I waited until the next day, looking at the money that was transferred to the account, it was still 30,000. These crew members all know that the total catch of this trip to sea is estimated to be less than 1.5 million. If it is above, it will definitely not be less than 30,000.
In Zhou Yang's words, every time the money they get is an integer, and many times it is Zhuang Haiyang who makes up more. As a chef, Zhou Hongjie received a bonus of 10,000 yuan as usual. In this regard, Zhou Hongjie also felt very happy and satisfied.
Chartered a boat to send Wang Yanming and his entourage back to Nanshan Island, Zhuang Haiyang picked a few things, and returned to the town. made a phone call to Zhao Penglin, and borrowed a car to go to Zhao Penglin's house for a lunch.
Of course, every time Zhuang Haiyang comes to the door, he will not forget to bring some ingredients that Zhao Penglin and his wife love. And this time, he also deliberately carried two local chickens. Seeing these two local chickens, Zhao Penglin also seemed very happy.
Said bluntly: "You kid, you are really generous! I am not welcome to this courtesy!"
"Uncle, if you are really polite to me, you will lose the most at that time!"
As the two of them interacted, they talked a lot more casually. Although I don't know why Zhuang Haiyang came to visit this time, Zhao Penglin knew how much that he would come from home for dinner, and the conversation would definitely be not small.
When he was full of wine and food, Zhao Penglin also invited Zhuang Haiyang to his study for tea. After three rounds of tea, Zhao Penglin said: "Say it! You kid, you don't have anything to do but go to the Three Treasures Palace." This time, what kind of demon moth are you doing?"
"Hehe, Uncle Zhao, there's something I need your help with. If it's possible, I'll probably ask you for help to see if we can sell it. The island is going to be developed, and there is a shortage of money recently!"
Zhuang Haiyang, who was talking, took out a silk bag from his pocket. Put it in front of Zhao Penglin, and then a few yellow ancient gold coins were quickly presented in front of Zhao Penglin. Seeing these gold coins, Zhao Penglin's eyes instantly straightened.
For Zhao Penglin, who loves to collect, he naturally knows the value of these gold coins. The most pleasing thing is that these gold coins are all ancient gold coins from abroad. In terms of collection value, it is also higher than ordinary antiques!
