Reborn in 1994, escaping from marriage and going sea fishing, I won!

Everyone started moving, waiting anxiously for the fishing net to be pulled up.

Liu Meilan stepped forward and untied the fishing net. Many fish of strange colors emerged, with a hint of gold in the gray.

Sister Tang was surprised and said: "This fish is good, it is golden flounder. The meat is delicate and the taste is delicious. It is a high-end fish." (Photo)

Wu Yong asked curiously: "How much is one kilogram?"

Sister Tang replied: "Before the fishing ban, it was over a hundred yuan per kilogram. Now it's the fishing ban, the price is even higher. Don't waste time, sort it quickly."

The experienced fishermen are very familiar with this and have mastered the technique. Such fish are very valuable and they can get a commission for every fish they catch, so they work very hard.

Of course, the higher the price per fish, the better.

There were quite a lot of golden flounder, weighing three tons, and each one was very large and looked very good.

There were also red fish among the gray-yellow fish. As the fish in the front were sorted, the number of red fish in the back gradually increased.

A patch of red appeared before my eyes—it was a grouper, and it was still alive.

"Everyone, be careful and move quickly, put the fresh ones in the live water tank." Liu Meilan reminded that the price of the red snapper is higher when it is alive.

"Don't worry, Mr. Liu, we know what to do!" Sister Tang said with a smile, and skillfully put the living grouper with good appearance into the live water tank.

Liu Meilan followed and put her hand in the live water tank, as if to give the grouper more vitality so that they could live better.

With such a large fishing net, it is inevitable that some fish will be injured. After picking out the injured fish, some can be slaughtered directly, then vacuum-packed and placed in the freezer; some are so badly damaged that they can only be left as food.

Next came many lively tiger crabs with their claws and teeth bared. They were delicious, meaty and very expensive.

The crabs are placed on the workbench and automatically graded according to size. Then the boatmen start to tie the crabs and throw those that are too small back into the sea.

It was not until eight o'clock in the morning that all the catches were sorted and the work area was cleaned.

At this time, Sister Chen and Aunt Liu had prepared breakfast!

The delicious fish soup, served with barbecued pork buns and custard buns, can help everyone get rid of the fatigue brought by the busy morning.

The boatmen gave a thumbs up and said, "Mrs. Chen, Aunt Liu, the food you cook is so delicious, even better than the old-fashioned restaurants on the street."

Aunt Liu smiled and said, "I learned the skill of making barbecued pork buns from my grandma. In the early days, my grandma's ancestor was a pastry cook in the Governor's Mansion. It's a pity that my grandma passed away early, otherwise I could have learned more skills. Eat more if you like it."

"Thank you!" Being a boatman is a physically demanding job, so you have to keep up with your diet. After all, each time you go out to sea, it's a long time, so you have to ensure you have enough nutrition.

Liu Meilan didn't say a word. She took a sip of fish soup and a bite of barbecued pork bun. She ate six barbecued pork buns in total. Finally, she had a few custard buns. They were fresh and sweet. She felt very satisfied.

Delicious food makes the days of ocean voyages less boring.

Some people went to rest, some went to the restaurant to watch TV, and those on duty continued to work.

This is how it is on a fishing boat, a mixture of busyness and boredom.

On the fifth day at sea, Liu Meilan stood on the deck, looking at the dark sky outside, feeling the moisture and sea breeze in the air.

Things are going to change!

Liu Meilan came to the cockpit and said to Tang Changping, "Uncle Tang, I will drive the boat. Let's find a suitable island to anchor and not trawling tonight."

Tang Changping nodded: "It looks dark outside, and a storm is coming. You drive the boat, and I will lead the men to secure the things on the boat with ropes."

"Okay!" Liu Meilan agreed, took over the rudder, and began to sail according to the guidance of the sea turtle.

All the boatmen on the island gathered together, and Tang Changping began to assign tasks. Each boatman had to complete the work in his own area and ensure that the items were properly fixed.

They were accustomed to weather changes, but the storm at sea was extremely violent and they had to deal with it with caution.

They completed the work quickly and efficiently, and checked carefully. Two hours later, it started to rain heavily outside.

Although there was no trawl net, the visibility at sea was low due to rain and the wind and waves were strong, so the speed of the fishing boat slowed down a lot.

Relying on the guidance of the big turtle, Liu Meilan was not affected by the low visibility and continued to move forward quickly.

After sailing for another hour, although the island was not visible to the naked eye, she detected it on the seabed. The instrument also showed that there was an island ahead, and also showed the depth and seabed topography.

After half an hour, Liu Meilan found a suitable place to stop the boat and drop anchor. The fishing boat was shaking in the storm, and Chen Saozi was unable to cook, so she distributed biscuits and mineral water to everyone.

After eating, Tang Changping and Xu Kaifa asked all boatmen to rest in the dormitory and not go out. Everything should be decided after the storm, and all non-essential situations should be communicated by walkie-talkie.

Liu Meilan sent a telegram to the shore, telling Tang Xiaoyu that everything was fine and there was no need to worry.

Although the storm was strong, Liu Meilan was not afraid at all and fell asleep peacefully. To her, the rocking of the fishing boat was like a cradle.

Unlike Liu Meilan, Tang Changping and Xu Kaifa stood up from time to time to observe the storm outside and checked around with flashlights. For safety, they wore helmets and tied ropes.

"Old Xu, should everything be okay this time?" Tang Changping asked nervously, looking out the window from time to time.

Xu Kaifa was calmer and said with a smile: "It should be fine. Look, Meilan is asleep. If there is any danger, she will definitely be more sensitive than us and will find it earlier."

"Ah?" Tang Changping was stunned, then smiled, "You're right. If there's any danger, Meilan will definitely be more nervous than us. I'll keep an eye on it here, you go back to sleep."

Xu Kaifa nodded: "Okay, I'll go take a rest and then I'll take your place. Don't worry, everything will be fine."

After Xu Kaifa's reminder, Tang Changping also calmed down, sat quietly, and looked out the window blurred by the rain.

The storm lasted for fifteen hours and finally stopped at eight o'clock the next day.

The dark clouds soon dispersed, the bright sunshine shone through, the sea was blue, and the sky was even clearer.

Everyone came out of the cabin dormitory and breathed in the fresh air: "The sky is finally clear. Hey, look at our deck, there are so many fish!"

"I picked up a grouper!" Zhou Ze said with a smile, holding a big fish weighing three kilograms in his hand.

"I picked up a big lobster here." Another crew member exclaimed.

Tang Changping shouted loudly: "Stop playing, clean up the fishing boat and check the boat quickly, we still have to continue fishing!"

The boatmen put away their playful thoughts and started to work.

Liu Meilan said to Tang Changping, "Uncle Tang, you guys go ahead and put down the boat. Let Zhou Ze and Wu Yong go with me to the island to take a look."

She can't wait!
