Chapter 236: Playing Dead
A few hours after leaving the port, there was a light rain on the sea, but fortunately, the forecast was that it was just a light rain, although the words of these people were not very credible, but no fishing boat would shrink into the harbor because of this light rain. If you do this, you don't have to go to sea for the whole season, and it's safer to stay in the harbor.
The storm didn't let the Arrow overturn, of course, such a light rain couldn't stop the Arrow from sailing towards Granbank, Bei Hai here out of the exclusive economic zone of the United States directly set up automatic navigation, and he stayed in the cockpit and flipped through the magazines in his hand from time to time to look up at the sea in front of him, or took advantage of the little sister's inattention to steal something from it to eat.
If you want to say that this little sister can't learn well, but her ability to eat nuts with one hand is really unsurpassed. Not to mention a person, even the walnut clip can't compare to its beak, as long as you hear a few knocks, the nut shell will open, not only open, but also the fruit inside is still neat.
Xiao Taimei also has an advantage that when eating more unpalatable nuts, the more she likes to gather fruits, just like now Xiao Taimei is knocking on walnuts on the metal table on the side of Bei Hai's operating table, and there are only four or five fruits left on the table that have not been knocked open, and the good husks Bei Hai has swept twice, and there is a small pile of walnut kernels that have been cracked next to Xiao Taimei's paws, although there is still a little hard husk mixed in it, but it is much better than Bei Hai doing it himself.
Reaching out and grabbing five more walnuts from the paper bag next to him, he put them in front of the little sister's eyes.
"Idiot, bastard!" The little sister looked at the walnuts in front of her eyes and couldn't help opening her mouth and shouting again. I haven't eaten a bite of walnuts for more than an hour, and I see that the walnut pile in front of me is about to finish being busy. Although the little sister is a bird, she also has a temper, although there are more fruits, but the time to eat is postponed.
After delivering the walnuts, Bei Hai took advantage of the little sister's inattention, and the black hand reached out to the small walnut kernel pile next to it. Previous experience told me that Bei Hai can't catch too much at a time, and if the little sister finds out that there is something missing, she will immediately stop what she is doing and eat the nuts directly into her stomach. Then they will peck one and eat the other, and it will take at least two or three days to get back to it, and it will take at least two or three days to gather nuts.
Gently pinched a few nuts and held them in the palm of his hand, first threw one into his mouth and chewed: "This walnut is still delicious in hard shell!" ”。
Now Bei Hai has almost eaten half of the things that the little sister has been busy with for more than an hour, and the little sister still hasn't eaten a bite.
"Captain!" Matt pushed the door and walked in, said hello to Bei Hai, and then directly reached out and grabbed a small handful in the little sister's walnut pile.
Bei Hai just wanted to stop himself from coming in a hurry, when he heard an ouch, Matt threw the walnut kernel in his hand again, because the little sister had already discovered the old man's black hand and went up at once. No matter how old Matt's hand is, it is also fleshy, where can it hold up the little sister, although she didn't see red, but judging from Bei Hai, it is estimated that it will not take two minutes for the back of this hand to show bruises.
"Thieves still know how to sneak things, you are a little too fat," Bei Hai looked at the back of Matt's hand and couldn't help but make a joke about the old man.
Matt rubbed the back of his hand twice and sat next to Bei Hai and said, "I obviously saw it turn its face, but who knows that it turned back again."
"Bad guys!" The little sister flapped her wings and shouted a few words, and then began to eat the small pile of nuts she had peeled.
Matt ignored the little sister and asked Bei Hai, "How is the sea situation over there in Granbank?" ”。
"Just got news from the Jazz's Gal side. The waves in Granbank are not too big, it is almost raining lightly here, there is no big problem with the homework, and it is estimated that this light rain should be over by the time we arrive! Bei Hai said.
"How's the catch on the Jazz?" Matt looked out the window at the light rain and asked.
"It's okay, but he's ready to go back, probably tomorrow!" Bei Hai threw another walnut kernel into his mouth and continued to flip through the book in his hand and replied.
"Catch full?"
"No, it's thinking of adding a few equipment, it's like us" Bei Hai said: "The news of these people is still too smart, I just agreed to produce it here, and it is sold on the market here, and the speed of Abraham's side is really fast!" ”。
Matt smiled and said, "This treacherous old thing must have made up his mind to accept your terms of cooperation, but you were at sea at the time, so this old man organized production first." Then wait for your license to arrive and start assembling and selling it directly! ”。
Of course, Bei Hai also thought of what Matt thought of, and this thing is also a good thing for Bei Hai, and if you sell an extra group of Bei Hai's pockets, there will be an extra set of money, as for how much to produce, that's not Bei Hai's problem, Bei Hai only shares the money from sales.
"Qi Yiming, what are they doing?" Bei Hai asked.
"What else can they do. That's what sleeping, playing cards, and watching TV," Matt said with a smile: "Everyone's morale is high right now!" ”。
Hearing this, Bei Hai couldn't help but smile, if each person had just been paid more than 100,000 US dollars, this morale was not high, then Bei Hai would really have to change a few sailors. Just as Matt had guessed, Dominic returned to the ship, though scared into a quail by the storm. But when I went out to sea, I still came with my bags again. It's not that Dominic is forgetful, but he can't do much work other than go out to sea, even if he is asked to go to the tuna boat offshore. Don't say it's a dry sailor, just how many times can you get the money for this one-time sea?
"Captain, why don't you go back to the cabin and I'll watch you here for a while," Matt said to Bei Hai.
Bei Hai listened to it and thought about it, and felt that it was too. Even if I don't sleep, it's good to play cards with them, thinking of this, I put down the book in my hand: "That's okay!" I've set up auto-cruise here, just take a look at it! ”。
When he walked to the hatch, Bei Hai did not forget to tell Matt: "Don't tease the little sister when she eats."
"Got it," said Marcellus with a smile, "I'm not three years old!" ”。
When he arrived at the lounge in the cabin, Bei Hai immediately joined the battle. The Arrow sailed towards the Granbank Fishing Grounds in the sound of the cards.
Seeing that the Arrow is here, one of the things that Granbank has to face now is to return a set of fishing gear that Joey wants to return, and to turn on the receiver to search for the remaining two sets of fishing gear, although there is not much chance of finding the other two, but you have to try it.
When there was almost an hour away from the original sea area, Bei Hai picked up the shipboard intercom and began to call the August number. The August is an American fishing boat from Connecticut, and the captain's name is Zieger, of course, the English name has no relationship with Qi Yiming.
August was the boat that picked up the gear of the Arrow, but Old Joy didn't want it back. Now the position of this ship is to stay in the position where the Arrow was originally operating, so it can be said that it not only took the fishing gear of the Arrow but also occupied the position of the Arrow. As for how many fish he caught, Bei Hai has no way to know now, because people didn't say that Bei Hai didn't bother to ask.
"August, call August!" Bei Hai held the intercom in his hand and began to call August, according to the normal distance, the position of the two ships is now the intercom can be called, but Bei Hai has been calling for five minutes and has not heard a reply from August.
Matt said, "August is ready to pretend that you can't hear?" ”。
Bei Hai put down the intercom in his hand and tried to call with a satellite phone two or three times, but no one answered, and couldn't help but be a little annoyed. Now the August is less than 20 nautical miles away from me, but the Arrow is not a warship, and the ship's radar cannot detect it at such a long distance, so it cannot find its location.
And the other party did not report his position, and it was really difficult for the average captain to find their position, and now the situation was already obvious, and the captain of the August was not ready to return the fishing gear to the Arrow as scheduled. Don't mention anything that can't be heard, Bei Hai just talked to Joey in front of him, and at the speed of the September ordinary fishing boat, it is impossible for Ben to run out of the range of the radio to talk.
Don't think that the range of ten or twenty nautical miles is so easy to find, this vast sea may not allow the two ships to pass by in such a flash. However, it is much easier for Bei Hai to find a boat, and he directly gave orders to the fritters and the earth dog and the ball to find the original fishing gear, and if the original fishing gear was found, then the August number was naturally nearby.
Soon the fritters passed back the direction of the fishing gear, and Bei Hai drove the arrow to that direction. (To be continued......)
