Catch the sea: start with a sand shovel and take over the entire beach

The net harvest of just 50 meters has reached more than 200 fish. On average, a net of one meter can catch four to five fish.

Not to mention that Kent has never seen it, neither has Zhao Qin.

When he was sinking the net at home, he also saw schools of fish, such as small yellow croakers and sole fish. They were densely packed and numerous, but the fish were all very small.

Unlike the current scene, each tail weighs at least five pounds and looks very satisfying.

Lidia glanced at Zhao Qin. Now she was a little doubtful of what Joey said. Is this guy really a billionaire?

Although the speed of untangling the fish is not as fast as that of the three veteran boatmen, it can be seen that he is not a novice, but he is still quite skilled.

Not to mention it was her, Joey was a little confused.

Zhao Qin had no time to care about what others thought, but devoted himself wholeheartedly to sorting the fish, just like sorting the catch on his own fishing boat. Although he was a little tired, it was still very enjoyable.

"Kent, move forward."

After all, there were four people untangling the fish. Although there were many fish and it was messy, it took a while to straighten it out.

Kent's boat moved first, and then Lydia also turned on the winch.

Occasionally, there will be an empty net for more than ten meters in the middle, but then a large wave of fish will come up.

It can't be solved, it can't be solved at all. This sentence suddenly popped into Zhao Qin's mind, and then he laughed.

After nearly a kilometer of fishing nets were collected, everyone finally felt a little more relaxed. The shorter the remaining fishing nets, the smaller the pulling force and the lower the possibility of breaking the net.

Although they are still working according to the routine formulated by Zhao Qin, everyone understands that it is no longer possible to disconnect the network, and the sound of the winch has become relatively relaxed.

They were all concentrating on their work, and no one noticed that the fish that used to slide down smoothly through the groove gradually piled up at the opening of the cabin.

Everyone's speed is getting faster and faster. Even from the time we closed the network to now, we have been standing there with our heads down working for nearly two hours.

When there were still nearly 500 meters of net left, Lidia's exclamation made everyone look up in shock.

"Oh my God, the fishing warehouse is full, what should I do now?"

When she spoke, she looked at Zhao Qin.

Zhao Qin was a little speechless, but still patiently replied: "Tell your dad, if you can't, you can only put the fish on the deck and rush to the port with all your strength."

Joey had already run into the wheelhouse, and Kent came out after a while, with the same expression as before, happy but annoyed.

"Lidya, you go control the ship and I'll dismantle it."

After Kent finished speaking, he unhooked a hook from the fastener on one side and put it in his hand. Zhao Qin noticed it when he got on the boat.

This kind of buckle is very good and can be used to fix small tools. Don’t underestimate this design. If things are not fixed on the boat, it is easy to injure people in the wind and waves.

His joining has greatly increased the speed of fish removal.

"Kent, how many pounds can your cabin hold?"

Zhao Qin was a little disappointed. In his opinion, there were some problems with the design of this ship.

The expansion of the crew lounge and the addition of restaurants, etc. have resulted in part of the equipment having to be packed inside the cabin, which is not good. First, it is difficult to maintain, and second, it takes up space in the cargo hold.

This boat is larger than the boat at home, but the cargo hold is much smaller than at home.

It’s not that Zhao Qin’s idea does not consider the comfort of the crew. Everyone wants to make more money when they come out. Whether it is their own ship or the several boatmen on the current ship, they all enjoy profit sharing.

Furthermore, he didn't think that the food and sleep on this ship were better than his own ship because of these extra things.

"About fifteen short tons," Kent replied.

The weight unit in the United States, in Zhao Qin's opinion, is a bit like taking off your pants and farting. Forget about pounds and ounces. Above these two units, it is also tons, but divided into long tons and short tons.

One long ton is larger than what we call a normal ton, but only a little larger (1 long ton = 1.016 tons),

As for short tons, one ton is 2000 pounds, which is equivalent to 0.9 tons.

After almost knowing the harvest so far, Zhao Qin stopped talking and continued working.

"Zhao, can I get you a bottle of water?" Joey suddenly thought that he could do some logistics.

If we had boarded the ship before, no matter how busy everyone was, it would have nothing to do with him, but it was different today. Zhao Qin was busy, so he suddenly felt a little embarrassed to be idle.

"Thank you Joey, I'm really thirsty."

Joey brought five bottles of water and gave one to each person. Seeing that no one was holding it, he simply opened a bottle and fed it to their mouths.

"Everyone, come on, there are still more than 20 meters left. Try to finish the job in minutes. Let Kent give everyone bonuses today."

Joey translated a sentence, and the three boatmen suddenly cheered. Their previous dissatisfaction with Zhao Qin had long since disappeared.

Kent was unhappy again. Why did he give out the bonus? A good man asked you to do it. But thinking that without Zhao Qin’s persistence, there would be no harvest today, he didn’t know how to refute.

As for Zhao Qin having to share half of today's fish catch, I must feel distressed, but I can accept it.

After all, today's harvest, even if you divide half of it, is much more than others.

When the end of the net came up, everyone breathed a sigh of relief, and the deck was already full at this moment.

Kent and another fisherman almost fell down when they took a step, and it took them a while to recover.

This is because there may be minor problems with the cervical spine, which may cause the head to be bowed for too long.

Zhao Qin was okay. He picked up the mineral water handed over by Joey and drank the remaining half of the bottle in one go.

There was no cheering. Kent calmed down and entered the wheelhouse to start the boat. The other three boatmen all sat on the ground, not even bothering to move their eyelids.

I believe Kent is already at full speed, but at this moment the fish hold is full and the boat is too heavy, so it will definitely be slower than before.

On the way back, we could still see quite a few fishing boats operating.

The smell of fish at the stern of the boat was too strong, so Zhao Qin leaned against the bow to rest. After a while, Joey came over and not only handed him a bottle of beer, but also offered him a piece of butter cake.

I was really hungry, so they chatted casually while eating and drinking.

"Kent won't cheat."

Zhao Qin grinned and looked at Joey angrily, "You don't need to test me. I bet you just can't stand the old boy cursing randomly. As for half of the harvest, what am I going to do?"

"You can sell it, and you can get at least twenty thousand dollars."

"Joy, isn't our friendship worth twenty thousand dollars?"

Joey was startled. What Zhao Qin meant was that for his own sake, he would not take half of the fish catch.

"Zhao, you said before that friendship cannot be measured by money."

"It's good to know that next time you come to the United States, you will treat me to a big dinner."

"It's a word."

The two clinked their bottles and burst into laughter.

Around four o'clock, the boat finally returned to the port. Kent glanced at Zhao Qin who was about to get off the boat and said, "Hey, you can't leave. I'll sell the fish later. Half of it will be yours."

Zhao Qin pretended to suddenly realize, "Oh, I almost forgot, someone lost and seems to owe me an apology."

Lidya suppressed her laughter and translated for the two of them.

Kent's expression changed, and after a long while he finally said, "It was my fault this morning, please forgive me."

Then he looked at his daughter and whispered, "It's because he helped us find so many fish, otherwise I would never apologize to him. Don't translate this sentence to that guy."
