Chapter 468
Chapter 468
There were not a single crab, but there were a few large mullet, squid, saury, and a few large mantis shrimp.
The bait in the crab cages was the small fish he had caught early in the morning. Of the fifteen crab cages, nine were empty.
There are six cages left, which is not bad.
There was a large lobster in one of the cages, and at least one tiger fish in several other cages.
There are three tiger fish in a cage.
Zhang Haidai quickly took the things out of the net.
Sitting on the boat, he sighed, "There's so little of this stuff, it really is easy."
Comparing it this way, he would rather be busier and more tired.
At least you can make money by being busy and tired.
Jiang Han smiled and said, "Let's leave this ship as it is now. Lao Jin at the shipyard said that the ship can be built in three months."
"By then, we'll just be hauling fish with trawl nets, and a lot of things will be mechanized, so we won't have to work as hard as we do now."
Zhang Haidai was stunned when he heard this. "Then I'm useless, right?"
He didn't want Brother Han to support a loser like him.
"Brother Han, how about I help you untie the fishing net?" Zhang Haidai said as he was about to reach out to take the fishing net.
Jiang Han quickly moved away. He had just begun to figure things out, and Zhang Haidai's presence would only make things worse.
Jiang Han glanced at Zhang Haidai. He didn't expect Zhang Haidai to react so strongly. He just said that casually, but it was as if he was going to kill him.
"A new boat will definitely have its own tasks. We won't have to pick things off the net one by one like we do now. And we won't have to use Brother Lai Zhuang's energy to pull the net."
"On a new ship, I guess it's just some picking and choosing. Sorting and cleaning the seafood, freezing what needs to be frozen, raising what needs to be raised, and cutting what needs to be cut. There's definitely a lot of trivial things to do."
Zhang Haidai felt relieved when he heard that he was still useful. He was afraid that everything would be done by machines and he would be unable to do anything.
When he saw Lai Zhuang playing with a tiger fish nearby, he thought it was pretty good to be a fool.
He walked up to him and said, "Just play. If you keep silent, you'll get pricked by the tiger fish's spines later."
The tiger fish is the stone bass, also known as the stone perch. Jiang Han has caught it several times.
It tastes very fresh and the price is reasonable, but its thorns are poisonous and it will hurt a lot if you get pricked by them.
Lai Zhuang understood what he said and quickly pulled his hand back.
I feel a little unhappy that I can’t play with fish.
Zhang Haidai whistled and he felt relieved.
Jiang Han finally untied the net, and now the nets on the boat were piled up again.
"Brother Han, where do we put these cages and nets?"
"Those two nets caught some saury, didn't they? They're dead on the boat anyway, and there's no ice to freeze them. Just chop them up and put them in the crab pot."
Zhang Haidai felt that what Brother Han said made sense. The mullet could still be raised, but the saury would go bad if it was not frozen. It would be better to chop it up and put it in the crab cage to lure other things.
Zhang Haidai and Lai Zhuang started working, and soon all fifteen crab cages were filled with saury fillets.
Jiang Han stood up and looked around. His current scanning range was almost eight kilometers, but the seafood was not concentrated in the areas he could see clearly.
"You can take the boat for a spin first."
"it is good."
Zhang Haidai drove the boat around.
Jiang Han found a suitable place and started to cast the net and crab cage.
Soon, all three nets were set and all the crab cages were put into the sea.
Jiang Han's cell phone rang. It was Jiang Feng calling.
Jiang Han didn't expect his sister to call at this time.
"Sister, it's already midnight, aren't you going to sleep?"
"I just woke up from a nap and saw your transfer. I didn't send you a package this time, so why did you transfer the money to me?"
Jiang Han smiled and said, "I've already said that. Just think of this as helping me with the express delivery. You and my brother-in-law have to help me with the shipping and managing the warehouse. If I don't give this 10% to you, who else can I give it to?"
Jiang Feng had no way to deal with her brother, so this was clearly a way of giving her money.
"Okay, I was planning to ask you in the morning, but now that you're awake, I'll tell you. The shrimps have been put on the boat to dry. Your brother-in-law slept on the boat to prevent people from disturbing him."
"Don't put out the new shrimp nets yet. Let's make dried shrimp from the shrimp we caught this morning and see how the market is doing."
"It takes about three days to dry the shrimp here, but your brother-in-law can still rent a new boat. If you have any goods to transfer, just call your brother-in-law and he will bring a boat over to take your goods away."
Jiang Han didn't expect that his sister would even think of this for him.
"I've checked the weather forecast, and it's only going to be good for the next two days. It's going to get bad after that. I want to use these two days to get some more things done. It would be great if my brother-in-law could come over."
"Okay, call him when you close the net."
Jiang Feng and Jiang Wenshan had agreed on this matter during dinner.
Jiang Feng knew that Jiang Han's sleeping hours were abnormal, and she was afraid of waking Jiang Han up, so she didn't call Jiang Han to tell him about this.
She also set an alarm for herself, figuring that Jiang Han would definitely be awake by this time in the morning.
It’s not too late to talk about it then.
Now that this has been said, I can turn off the alarm.
Jiang Han hung up the phone and felt relieved.
He can make money now, but he still enjoys the feeling of being cared for by his sisters.
"Brother Han, shall we go directly to uncle's place now?"
Jiang Han suddenly thought of the place where the butter crabs were harvested. Isn’t there a freshwater river on that island?
Jiang Han pointed to the island and said, "Let's go over there and take a look."
Zhang Haidai immediately changed direction and drove towards the island that Jiang Han pointed to.
Although the island is not big, there are several families living here. It is probably because of this freshwater river that these families settled here.
If it wasn't the middle of the night, the villagers would probably stare at them, a few outsiders.
