621 Let’s Begin
After giving the order, the captain put down the wireless walkie-talkie and went to the inner cabin to get busy.
While all the CEOs were busy fishing and sweating profusely, Ye Xuan lay comfortably on the chair and basked in the sun. At the same time, he made a cup of tea and hummed a tune while enjoying the salty sea breeze.
If other CEOs saw this situation, they would probably die of jealousy. Fortunately, they could not see this.
Two hours was neither long nor short. Ye Xuan felt that he had only sat for a while, but time was up.
Then, the surrounding nets were all pulled up. The nets were dark inside and looked like there was a lot of goods.
After the fishing nets were pulled up from all directions, they landed on the deck. There was a fishy smell, but Ye Xuan was very excited when he saw it. After all, there were so many goods. One look and he was in a good mood.
As the fishing net was pulled up, many crew members ran over with tools and stood on the deck to load the fish. Ye Xuan walked over and took a look.
There were all kinds of fish inside. Because the net was relatively large, there were no small fish. All of them were big fish. Ye Xuan estimated that the largest fish here was about the length of an adult and weighed dozens of kilograms.
This made Ye Xuan feel much better. This feeling of harvesting a big fish was really too good.
Then, he nodded in satisfaction. He looked at the captain and smiled at him.
“Let’s set sail after we’re done. We’ll go to the next place and cast a big net as usual. It’ll take two hours.”
“Yes, Chairman Ye.”
Upon hearing the captain’s answer, Ye Xuan nodded again and returned to his recliner. He picked up his teacup and blew on it gently. He took two sips and it was simply comfortable.
After a while, these fish were packed into large boxes similar to that of transport ships and placed on the deck.
Then, the crew jogged back to their seats. After a while, the ship restarted and sped towards another pre-chosen destination.
They were all outstanding crew members and knew the sea like the back of their hands. Perhaps they did not have as much knowledge, experience, and techniques as the old boatmen on the fishing boats of the CEOs, but they were definitely very comprehensive in the scientific study of seawater.
Therefore, it was not difficult to calculate where the school of fish often traveled, at what time there would be the most schools of fish, what species would be present, and whether they were big or small. After understanding these factors, they would just go over and fish.
After a while, the ships arrived at another destination. Then, the six ships stopped in unison and lined up. Then, they cast their nets again and began the second round of fishing.
Ye Xuan didn’t care about anything. He sat on the chair and drank tea, basked in the sun, and enjoyed the sea breeze. Six ships were fishing at the same time, and they were fishing at the place with the most fish. No matter what they caught, they would definitely catch more fish than the other CEOs in the end, so there was naturally nothing to worry about. Unless the boatmen of those CEOs were indeed very powerful, the winner of the championship was obvious.
Two hours passed quickly. Ye Xuan was still playing with his cell phone when he heard a pop. The surrounding nets were collected and gently placed on the deck.
When Ye Xuan saw this, the corners of his lips curled up slightly. Then, he stood up and walked over. He looked at the big black fish wrapped in nets. The feeling of the machine slowly placing the nets on the ground made him feel extremely comfortable. Harvest always made him happy.
After a while, the fishing nets fell to the ground. The fish in the nets were still jumping around. They were each bigger than the other, and the smallest ones weighed a few kilograms. They looked very tempting.
However, Ye Xuan found a few uninvited guests inside. Two dolphins were lying inside and eating fish non-stop. However, because the fish were too big and they couldn’t eat it, they could only jump around anxiously. Then, they looked around for fish to eat and didn’t realize where they were.
There were also two sea lions and three walruses. They had clearly realized their situation and were looking around with fear in their eyes.
When Ye Xuan saw this, he couldn’t help but be happy. He didn’t know how these guys got into the net. The net entrance was relatively small and was only suitable for small fish to enter.
With their weight and size, there was only one possibility. When the net was thrown down, they saw it but did not hide. They stayed inside until they were caught.
“Let them out and give them two fish.”
Ye Xuan smiled and shouted at the crew members. Everyone nodded and opened a corner of the net to summon these cute guys. They picked up a few fish and stuffed them into the mouths of these creatures. Before the crew members could do it themselves, they jumped into the sea one after another. They looked back with the fish in their mouths as if they were thanking the humans.
With this small interlude, everyone was more energetic and the atmosphere was more lively.
They were indeed very happy to see these little fellows occasionally. It was as if they had suddenly raised a pet or gone to the zoo.
After a while, the fish in the net were also put into iron boxes for transportation this time. There were a total of six boxes that were larger than trucks. Each ship basically had a box. With this weight, there was a 110% chance that he would win.
It was already twelve o’clock. After the crew packed up the fish, they returned to their positions.
After a while, the ship started again and sped towards the port, stirring up many waves.
After about ten minutes, the fleet arrived at the port. At this moment, there were many boats docked at the port, most of which were fishing boats of the CEOs.
Everyone came back earlier than Ye Xuan. Perhaps it was because they were not far away, but there didn’t seem to be much goods on the ship. Some of the CEOs looked even more miserable, as if they had been slapped by a penguin.
Ye Xuan looked at the CEOs and smiled. Then, he took a few steps forward and walked down the stairs to the shore.
“How is it, CEOs? Your harvest today looks pretty good.”
The CEOs looked up at the few large metal boxes on the deck of the fleet. Their hearts skipped a beat as they smiled obsequiously.
“How can there be any harvest? I don’t know what’s going on in the sea today, but I feel like these fish are on vacation. It took me a long time to catch so little.”
“That’s right. We can’t even find a few fish. Chairman Ye’s harvest is quite bountiful. It looks really good.”
“I’m fine. I was taken care of by the Sea Dragon King today. Every time I go out, the net is full. Aiya, today was really satisfying. Come, everyone, let’s count the items.”
“Come, come, come. Bring the tube over.”
