The others also laughed when they heard this. Sardines are cheap, but there are too many of them.

Although it takes up space, their fishing boats are not big enough and can carry 800-1000 tons.

Add to that the tuna, which can be sold for hundreds of thousands, and all together, that’s millions in revenue.

This is not fishing, this is just picking up money.

Everyone was calculating in their minds how much commission and bonus they could earn this time, and the more they calculated, the more excited they became.

As for the hardships at sea, they are nothing.

They have no education and only know fishing techniques. How can they make money without hard work?

What's more, large ships have a high degree of mechanization, and many labor-intensive tasks are done by machines, which makes it much easier than before.

In addition, the accommodation conditions on the big fishing boats are better because the intervals between setting down the nets at night are longer, so they can often sleep longer at night.

In the cafeteria, they find all kinds of ways to prepare delicious food for everyone, which makes everyone's mouths drool and relieves their fatigue.

As the saying goes, “When you are well fed and well-dressed, you won’t miss home”, it is absolutely true.

Therefore, many ship workers are very satisfied with the current situation and look forward to working on a large ship for a long time.

This is their fourth day at sea, and the cabin is already one-third full. If they continue at this pace, they will be able to return to the dock in ten days!

During the period, the large fishing boats showed very good performance despite wind and rain.

So far, Liu Meilan is very satisfied.

Xu Kaifa was driving the fishing boat, and Liu Meilan was holding a telescope and saw several fishing boats.

"Uncle Xu, I'll drive the boat, you take a rest!" Liu Meilan said with a smile. Driving such a large fishing boat requires concentration, so it is necessary to change directions frequently to relieve fatigue.

"Okay, then I'll keep an eye on it!" Xu Kaifa gave up his position, since he had a telescope in his hand anyway.

About half an hour later, Xu Kaifa saw several fishing boats not far away.

I didn’t take it seriously at first. After all, the ocean is so big and the seafood resources are similar, so everyone can just catch fish based on their own abilities.

He simply told Liu Meilan what he saw, and soon, Liu Meilan also saw it with her naked eyes.

Judging from the size of the fishing boats, they were about 20 to 30 meters long, similar to Liu Meilan's previous fishing boat, also trawlers.

Now the fishing nets on Liu Meilan's boat are bigger and longer, so they have to move away to avoid them getting tangled.

Not only does it delay fishing, but sometimes it may also ruin a net.

But something happened that shocked Liu Meilan and Xu Kaifa. Not only did these fishing boats not dodge, they actually drove towards Liu Meilan's large fishing boat.

Xu Kaifa's expression changed slightly. "Meilan, something is wrong! These fishing boats seem to be here to cause trouble, and there seems to be a coast guard ship behind them. The red flag... has only one star. It's not the flag of our country, but the southern one..."

Liu Meilan heard this and said, "Uncle Xu, report it immediately! How far is the nearest coast guard ship from us? If they are nearby, have them rush over."

Although it was a large fishing boat, Liu Meilan would not have been so suspicious if she had only encountered a few other fishing boats.

But now there is the enemy's coast guard ship behind us. Although the coast guard ship is not big, the enemy has guns in their hands.

The people on Liu Meilan's side are not afraid of death, but they cannot make meaningless sacrifices.

The most infuriating thing is that these guys are acting so arrogantly in their own territorial waters.

After Xu Kaifa contacted the ship, he learned that the nearest coast guard ship was still two hours away.

Liu Meilan felt relieved after hearing this. "Let's speed up and let them chase us! We will wait for the coast guard ship to arrive and deal with them."

No wonder there are so few Chinese fishing boats here, it turns out these places are actually occupied by these people.

In order to increase the speed, Liu Meilan asked Tang Changping to start the attack.

Without the dragging of the fishing net, the large fishing boat moved a little faster.

Not only that, they also wanted to test whether the speed at full speed in the ocean could meet expectations.

Zhou Ze and Wu Yong also noticed something was wrong and gnashed their teeth, "If they really catch up with us, I'll fucking kill them!"

Zhou Ze reminded, "I want to do the same thing! But now the captain has turned around, obviously he doesn't want to face them head-on! Let's be patient and don't cause trouble for the captain."

"I'll go ask!" Wu Yong was so brave that he ran to the cockpit excitedly.

"Calm down!" Zhou Ze followed behind.

Wu Yong asked: "Captain Meilan, with a ship this big, we don't have to be afraid of them!"

Xu Kaifa handed the binoculars to Wu Yong. "There's a ship following them. It looks like a coast guard ship! They have guns, but we don't!"

Liu Meilan nodded. "Although I know that everyone is a tough guy and is not afraid of death, we can't just fight against the strong with the weak! Don't worry, we have already reported it! Our coast guard ship will meet us in an hour and a half!"

"We will continue to drive forward and let them chase us. When our coast guard ships arrive, they will not dare to act rashly, and we fishermen will have the confidence."

Hearing this, Wu Yong smiled and said, "Yes, let's prepare for both situations! I'll go collect the beer bottles now!"

Liu Meilan was stunned. "What are you collecting beer bottles for?"

Wu Yong laughed loudly. “When we confront each other later, neither side will easily open fire! At least everyone on our boat is wearing slippers, while many of the other side’s people are barefoot. When the time comes, we will throw these beer bottles onto their boat. There will be glass shards everywhere, which will pierce these guys’ stinky feet!”

Zhou Ze chuckled, "Don't worry, we know what's going on!"

Liu Meilan blinked her eyes, her eyes sparkling with joy. "Then find more! If there are no beer bottles, cans, soda bottles, anything that can be used, collect them quickly!"

Wu Yong and Zhou Ze were very happy to see that Liu Meilan not only did not back down but was eager to try.

The other boatmen also heard about this and were outraged.

Tang Changping reminded, "Hurry up and clean up the seafood, because you will have the chance to come out and watch the fun later!"

After hearing this, the boatmen who were about to go to the side of the boat to start a quarrel ran back to sort the seafood.

Although it is satisfying to have a quarrel and fight, sorting the seafood is more important.

The fishermen on the opposite fishing boat sneered and jumped around like monkeys, laughing. Even if the Chinese fishing boats were big, what could they do? Wouldn't they run away in shame when they saw them?

But soon they saw that the big fishing boat was speeding up again, and they felt both envious and angry.

When anger gets to your head, it's easy to make mistakes in judgment and make wrong decisions, so you continue to chase at full speed.

Seeing them catching up, Liu Meilan smiled instead.

If Liu Meilan maintains her current speed, the opponent will not be able to catch up completely, but she can still keep them hanging.

Xu Kaifa nodded, "Okay! I'll report the latest situation right away!"

About 20 minutes later, Liu Meilan stopped the big fishing boat, and soon the five or six fishing boats behind it caught up.

The other side's coast guard ships also followed these fishing boats in a shameless manner, looking smug.
