Catch the sea: start with a sand shovel and take over the entire beach
Chapter 640 Josh’s Revenge
Yu Fake was a little depressed. It was only three o'clock now, and he had already caught three fish.
If he fished for a while longer, he might be able to break Ah Qin's record yesterday, but he also knew the reality. This big fish couldn't get into the cabin and he had to go back now.
It was a bit laborious for the small crane to lift the fish, and it made a creaking protest sound as if it might strike at any moment. Fortunately, it was still able to drag the fish onto the freshly laid raincloth.
Seeing the true form of this fish, everyone was once again deeply shocked by its size.
In comparison, I suddenly felt so small.
The bloodletting has long been completed, and Jean has no intention of measuring the length again. "Zhao, you can sail to the dock first."
Zhao Qin nodded, stood at the helm on the back deck, determined the direction, started the ship, increased the throttle and drove towards the dock.
The fish couldn't enter the cabin, so Gene could only pour a large amount of crushed ice on the fish, then cover it with a raincloth to avoid direct sunlight, and then pour crushed ice on the covered raincloth to achieve the best cooling effect.
After finishing his work, Jean replaced Zhao Qin and took the helm himself.
After driving for about an hour, a ship not far away was rushing back at a constant speed. After being overtaken by Jean's ship, it also increased the throttle and chased after it. The other party's shout came from the radio. It turned out to be Robert.
"Robert, why are you back so early today?"
It turned out that Robert set out at three o'clock in the night. He got the most accurate coordinates of Zhao Qin's fish yesterday. After arriving, he stayed tight.
I don’t know whether it was because of the good luck of the cargo, or whether the aura of luck spread by Zhao Qin in that sea area has not completely faded away, but by about three o’clock in the afternoon, he actually caught three fish.
One of them was a giant, roughly estimated to weigh over a thousand pounds.
He was in a good mood. In his opinion, if the most handsome boy in Dennis yesterday was Zhao Qin, then he must be him today.
As a result, he met Jean's boat halfway, and the other party actually drove all the way regardless of fuel consumption, which immediately aroused his curiosity.
"Robert, congratulations, but I swear your achievement today is not number one, haha."
Gene laughed loudly, and soon the sound on the radio became more and more noisy. Everyone was congratulating Robert, so Gene shut up and started to drive as hard as he could.
At about half past five, the ship finally docked. Robert was a little slower, only ten minutes later.
Because it was early, the pier was still relatively quiet, and Jones came over to greet them.
"Jesus Gene, what's that on your boat?"
The two boats stopped together, and Robert immediately saw the raincloth covering the other boat. Judging from the size, it was even larger than the Big Mac he had caught.
"Hey, you'll find out later."
Jones arrived at the beach and was happy at first when he saw the rain cloth on the boat, but soon his expression disappeared and he said, "Jean, let's hoist the fish up first. I think today's harvest is pretty good."
Naturally, Jean blew again.
Zhao Qin glanced at Jones, and then frowned slightly. He always felt that something was wrong with the foreigner's expression today.
On the other side, Robert's boat also started to lift fish, but it was not Jones, but another buyer named Pete.
When the raincloth was lifted and the big fish revealed its true identity, all the busy people on the pier had their hands full.
Everyone's expressions were similar, they were all shocked.
It took a while for everyone to exclaim. Jones, who has collected fish for more than ten years and has a very accurate eye, exclaimed at just one glance: "Breaking the record again."
"Are you sure?" Gene was overjoyed, because once the record is broken, the local fishery department will reward him with US$6, and Zhao also said that he will share half of the money.
3 US dollars, this is not a small amount of money,
At least I can use this money to buy a nice car for my eldest son, who is about to turn sixteen.
"Nothing less than 1600 pounds."
The previous record holder caught in New York was 1530 pounds, and 1600 pounds completely broke the record.
"Zhao, congratulations." Robert stepped forward and stretched out his hand.
Zhao Qin shook his hand and said, "It seems that you also had a good harvest today?"
Robert smiled bitterly, "Originally, I thought I would be number one today, but I didn't expect that I still couldn't beat you."
Everyone was still busy, chatting briefly and then walking away. Zhao Qin turned around and found that the smile on Jones's face was getting weirder. He was even more puzzled. Could it be that this old boy was still awake from the wine he drank at noon?
Naturally, the big fish was a record-breaker, but when the five fish were unloaded from Gene's boat, there was another commotion at the dock.
Yesterday this boat and these few people broke the record of three tails, and today they actually broke yesterday's record of four tails. What about tomorrow?
After Robert finished unloading the fish, he jumped on Gene's boat and said quickly in a very low voice: "Pete said that the market is better today, and the floating price is at least $1 per pound. Don't let Jones fool you later."
After saying that, without waiting for Gene's reply, he jumped onto the dock to watch his fish being weighed.
Jean packed up the fish boat and went ashore. He called Zhao Qin and others to watch his fish being weighed, and even took out a ruler to measure the size of the largest fish.
Measuring 162 inches (approximately 410 centimeters) long, this fish was weighed directly without having its head and tail removed. In a moment, the data came out, 1619 pounds (approximately 728 kilograms).
After another burst of exclamation, Jean rubbed his hands and looked at Zhao Qin with joy.
"Don't worry, the bonus will be half of yours."
The other four fish were weighed one after another with their heads and tails removed. The smallest one weighed 254 pounds, and the other three fish were all between 440-460 pounds, which is very average.
Jones finished sampling after a while. Gene didn't pay attention to the tail that Yu Fake gave to him, but looked at the largest one first.
After looking at it carefully for a moment, he said happily: "It's very good. Not only is there no burn, but the oil content is extremely high."
The smile on Jones' face disappeared at this moment. He took a look at the five-tailed fish sample and actually quoted a uniform price, "The meat quality of the five-tailed fish is not much different. I will give you $5 per pound."
Hearing the price, Gene was stunned and thought he heard it wrong, "You said $15 a pound?"
"No, five dollars."
Gene immediately became angry, "Jones, are you kidding me?"
Unexpectedly, Jones said unabashedly, "Gene, I think you need to understand that you are from Dennis and you are from our side."
After saying that, he actually glanced at Zhao Qin and Yu Fake provocatively. Yes, he stopped pretending and was clearly bullying students.
Zhao Qin suddenly laughed, and he finally understood why he felt something was wrong just now.
Jones didn't care about the identity of their tourists yesterday, but he made it clear today. It would be strange if there was no influence from Josh.
"OK, your price is only this much, right? Then I have the right not to sell it to you."
Gene turned around angrily and went to another acquired store. Jones smiled and didn't care at all.
Sure enough, Gene came back angrily after a while. He had just gone to find two other purchasers. When they saw that he didn't even look at the fish samples, they quoted him $5.
It would be understandable if the market was like this, but he happened to meet Robert, the other party's three-tailed fish.
The highest one sold for 16 US dollars a pound, and the lowest one sold for 12 US dollars.
He was angry, but he had no better solution. Zhao Qin glanced at Yu Fake with a smile, and the other party shrugged, then spread his hands, and then laughed.
