Chapter 80: A Net Worth Over a Thousand Pounds (Seeking First Subscription)
"Is everything ready?" Zhou Miao asked.
It was already 6 p.m. Luo Qianqian and Lu Xiaoxiao had already returned from their shopping, and Lu Xingyu had also come along.
Luo Hao looked left and right, unable to think of anything else he needed.
After all, they had already bought waterproof bodysuits and were quite well prepared.
"Oh right, and ice cubes too!" Lu Xingyu suddenly said from the side.
"We definitely need to bring a few boxes. If there are a lot of fish, we might be busy all morning. It's hot now, and without ice, the quality of the fish will be affected," Luo Hao agreed.
"Yes, we need to buy ice. Is there anything else we need to buy?" Zhou Miao nodded and continued to ask.
After thinking for a while, they couldn't think of anything else they needed, so they all shook their heads.
"In that case, let's set off!"
The two fishing boats slowly started, first docked at the shore to buy some ice, and then went to the gas station to refuel.
Their fishing boats have a fuel tank capacity of 1,500 liters, which is sufficient for short-distance offshore operations.
If a trawler of the same size is operating in the open sea, its fuel tank capacity may reach three thousand liters.
Filling up the tank cost Zhou Miao over nine thousand yuan, meaning he spent a total of thirteen thousand yuan today.
I wonder if we can catch a thousand catties of threadfin bream tonight and make back all the money we invested today.
Arriving at Sanshijiao, there was still no one around at night.
"Ah Hao, shall we log off now?"
"Yes, come aboard my boat first and help me set the net. I'll come over to your boat to help you later." Luo Hao nodded.
This was because none of Zhou Miao and the other two knew how to fish, and they would definitely need his help later, so the fishing nets had to be set down quickly.
"Okay, I'll be right there."
The two boats slowly approached and then gently collided. However, the tires on the sides of the boats effectively mitigated the impact, and there was no serious damage.
After the boat came to a stop, Zhou Miao walked over by the gunwale and learned how to cast a net from Luo Hao.
Luo Qianqian steered her fishing boat, making a round trip around the northwest side of Sanshi Reef.
In the afternoon, Luo Hao and Zhou Miao had already strung the fishing nets together. Each unit was fifty-eight meters long, and there were thirty pieces in total. They strung together ten pieces to form a large net.
So they first laid a net array near the Three Stone Reefs, and then laid two more net arrays 30 meters away, completely surrounding the northwest side.
Once Luo Hao arrived on Zhou Miao's ship, they surrounded the southeast side of Sanshi Reef.
However, there are gaps of about ten meters between the outer nets, allowing fish to enter, so the two inner nets will not be entirely fruitless.
After setting up the net, none of them intended to fish; instead, they lay down to rest and recharge.
Sleeping on the boat wasn't comfortable, but it did relieve Zhou Miao's fatigue from lack of sleep in the morning.
I was sleeping and waking up, and before I knew it, there was a soft, fragrant body in my arms.
When Zhou Miao opened his eyes, he was unsurprisingly greeted by Lu Xiaoxiao.
I wanted to push her away, but seeing that she was huddled up and seemed a little cold, I softened.
After hesitating for a moment, he reached out and hugged her.
It was indeed a bit cold on the sea at night, so they kept each other warm.
Zhou Miao glanced back at Lu Xingyu. She was worried that he might be cold, but when she found him sleeping soundly with a blanket covering him, she was speechless.
When did that bastard bring the blanket?
Didn't you know it was for your sister?
It wasn't until four in the morning that the shrill ring of a cell phone alarm woke up everyone on the boat.
"Mmm~" Lu Xiaoxiao woke up and found herself being held tightly by Zhou Miao. She was overjoyed and wanted to continue to snuggle up to him.
But the next moment, Zhou Miao ruthlessly let go of her and got up to call Lu Xingyu, who couldn't be woken up even by an alarm clock.
"Xingyu, wake up..."
Lu Xingyu turned over.
Zhou Miao reached out and shook him, but he impatiently slapped him away.
Lu Xiaoxiao, already a little upset at the loss of a warm embrace, walked over and shouted into Lu Xingyu's ear, "The boat capsized!"
"Holy crap, holy crap, run!"
The next moment, Lu Xingyu suddenly sprang up.
"6
""
Zhou Miao watched this scene speechlessly, realizing that she had been too gentle!
"Xiaoxiao, you scared me again!"
"How could you get up if I didn't scare you? You can sleep like a log in this environment." Lu Xiaoxiao rolled her eyes and ignored him.
Go and take out all the things you bought this afternoon: "Eat something first, so you won't get hungry later."
Setting the alarm for 4 a.m. is primarily for eating, drinking, and relieving oneself; it's a time to get ready before setting up the net.
After a while, Luo Hao arrived in his boat. He jumped onto Zhou Miao's boat and said to Lu Xiaoxiao, "Xiaoxiao, come to my boat first. Miao and I will pull up the fishing nets first, and then you can come over and untangle the fish that are tangled in them."
"Okay." Lu Xiaoxiao nodded, having no objections.
Once she was on the other boat, Luo Hao asked Zhou Miao, "Should we haul in the net now, or wait a bit?"
"It's almost five o'clock, let's open the internet cafe now!" Zhou Miao checked the time and found that it was only a little over ten minutes until five o'clock, so it wouldn't make a difference.
Everyone is eager to know if they've gained anything, so they've taken immediate action.
Lu Xingyu ran to start the boat, Luo Hao operated the net-hauling machine to haul in the net, and Zhou Miao stood behind him, gathering the net and untying the fish from it when there was time.
The fishing boat first arrived at the south side of Sanshi Reef and began to haul in its nets from there.
Luo Hao took the float up, grabbed the rope, and pulled it up a bit.
The heavy feeling in his hand made his eyes light up: "It seems like I've caught quite a few fish."
The net itself is quite heavy when it enters the water, but even if there are no fish, you can still pull up a corner of it.
"Haha, that depends on how many fish there are." Only Zhou Miao knew that tonight was destined to be a big harvest.
Once he confirmed there were fish, Luo Hao was full of energy and quickly tied the rope to the net-hauling machine, letting the rotating machine pull up the fishing net.
Lu Xingyu, who was standing nearby, kept his eyes glued to the water's surface. When he saw a silvery-white threadfin bream appear, he immediately shouted excitedly:
'
The net's here! The school of threadfin bream has really arrived!
"Holy crap, so many?"
"Haha, we're going to make a killing this time!"
"Damn, this is way too outrageous."
Luo Hao and Zhou Miao looked at the many threadfin bream on the net with surprise. They had only pulled up a few and there were already so many. How many could there be in the whole net?
Will there be enough room for all the fishing boats?
As more and more of the fishing net was pulled up, the density of threadfin bream did not decrease, and Luo Hao was certain that the net had been overwhelmed today.
If each net only holds that many fish, then their small boat simply cannot hold a second one.
"Ah Miao, stop cutting the fish. Gather the fishing nets and pile them on the deck. Make the most of all the space."
"I know." Zhou Miao nodded and started by lowering the net from the bow of the boat.
He also roughly calculated the number of threadfin bream entangled in the next fishing net.
A fishing net measuring 58 meters in length was found, which caught 27 threadfin bream weighing four or five kilograms each.
Of course, the number of fish caught in one fishing net does not represent the total catch of the entire net.
So he counted the second and third fishing nets, finding thirty-one and thirty-six fish respectively.
The number has not decreased, but has actually increased?
If each fishing net contains about thirty threadfin bream, wouldn't the entire net be able to catch about 1,500 catties of threadfin bream?
