My fishing raft will ask for help.

Chapter 198 Finding a refrigerated truck, returning fully loaded.

Once the first burst of fish activity ended, Zhou Miao forcibly dragged the fish to the side of the boat.

Yu Muzhou was right; it really was a tuna.

And her eyes are especially big, watery and beautiful.

Although it was Zhou Miao's first time seeing this kind of tuna, he could tell at a glance that it was a bigeye tuna.

Zhou Miao was overjoyed to see that it was this kind of tuna.

However, the fish hadn't completely exhausted itself, and the bigeye tuna kept swimming around the boat, even trying to crawl under it.

It wasn't particularly strenuous for Zhou Miao to fish it out with all his might, but he couldn't control it with one hand, so he could only continue to exhaust its energy until it completely calmed down.

At this moment, the people of Yumu Prefecture were a little numb!

He finally had good luck tonight and caught a longfin tuna weighing over 50 pounds.

These longfin tuna and bigeye tuna don't belong to the same school, but they were both attracted by the squid school.

However, after Yu Muzhou finally managed to catch the longfin tuna, before he could even feel happy, he suddenly realized that he couldn't lift the fish.

The hook had already killed the fish, but he tried several times and could only barely lift it out of the water. He was always just a little short of getting it onto the gunwale.

"Ah Miao, are you free? Could you help me carry these fish?" With no other option, Yu Muzhou had to ask for help.

"I'm fishing here too, I can't leave," Zhou Miao replied loudly. "You haul the fish up from the small door at the stern."

Yu Muzhou suddenly realized that he hadn't thought about this question before, and now he understood how he managed to get such a heavy swordfish onto the ship even though there was no crane on board.

So he quickly turned on the line and dragged the fish to the stern of the boat.

He was just a little short of strength, but now that he's reached the small door at the stern, he can easily haul the fish up.

"Looks like next time I'll have to specifically look for a boat with a crane, otherwise I won't be able to get the fish out."

"Brother Zhou, why don't you buy a Class II fishing boat? That way you won't need to rent a boat in the future, and it will be more convenient for you to go out to sea on your own."

"We couldn't go far before, but now we can actually buy one."

Yu Muzhou was very tempted after hearing this. He followed Zhou Miao to fish, and even without any luck, he caught quite a few fish today.

So if he buys a boat that can go to the open sea, he won't have to worry about not catching big fish in the future.

He cleaned the fish and tossed it aside.

Tired of fishing and not wanting to continue, he came over to Zhou Miao's spot.

When Yu Muzhou saw the bigeye tuna struggling on the surface of the water, which was over 1.5 meters long, he questioned his life again.

His longfin tuna, although weighing fifty or sixty pounds, was about 1.3 meters long.

He thought the tuna he had just seen was this kind, but in the blink of an eye, Zhou Miao showed him an even better one.

"It has to be you again!"

With a wry smile, Yu Muzhou picked up the hook and helped Zhou Miao hook the bigeye tuna that still had some strength left.

"Not used to it yet?"

"How could anyone possibly get used to this thing!"

"Haha, you haven't seen enough. In ten years or so, you won't be moved at all."

"..."

A melody automatically popped into Yu Muzhou's mind—that is... rags~

It takes a long time to catch a tuna; it was already past 1 a.m.

With less than four hours left until dawn, the squid will disperse, and the fish will follow.

So Zhou Miao asked Yu Muzhou, who was resting, to help bleed the fish while he continued fishing.

For the next three hours, he only caught three tuna.

Among them were two longfin tuna weighing over 60 pounds each, and a bigeye tuna weighing nearly 200 pounds.

If you want to fish again, there are no squid left.

After casting the bait and waiting for about twenty minutes, until the sky began to lighten, Zhou Miao finally gave up.

But looking at the two longfin tuna and the bigeye tuna beside him, he wasn't too dissatisfied.

"Let's go back quickly, arrange the refrigerated truck, and then go to the hotel to get some sleep." Yu Muzhou yawned, already extremely sleepy.

He was exhausted after catching a longfin, but after eating some snacks and fruit and resting for an hour or so, he caught another one of similar size.

Two is already his limit.

I've been holding out until now purely out of concern that the strong daytime sun would cause the fish to be exposed to the scorching sun.

So I planned to go back early, arranged for a refrigerated truck, and then rest.

It takes fourteen hours to get from here to Nanzhen by highway. Plus, the driver needs to eat and sleep, so this batch of goods won't arrive until noon tomorrow at the earliest.

The two of them taking a plane won't waste any time at all.

"I'll steer the boat, you go and get some sleep."

"Okay, just call me when we get there!"

After traveling more than 100 nautical miles, we returned to the dock at 10:30 a.m.

Instead of waking Yu Muzhou, Zhou Miao made a phone call and chartered a mini refrigerated truck.

Despite their enthusiastic fishing, their combined catch was only a little over 3,000 jin (1,500 kg).

Most of these fish were caught last night. In the previous two days, Zhou Miao had only caught a little over a thousand catties of fish, including the five-hundred-catty swordfish.

After weighing all the fish, they were loaded onto the truck, but even the mini refrigerated truck wasn't completely full. There was still some space inside; it could probably fit another three or four hundred pounds of stuff.

The maximum load capacity of a minivan is approximately 1.8 tons, with an average load capacity of 1 to 1.5 tons.

The chartered car costs 3,500 yuan, but toll fees are extra, so the total cost is 4,500 yuan.

Zhou Miao was already very tired and didn't bother to haggle. Besides, others were only making a meager living, so he signed the contract and paid the deposit directly.

Of course, a compensation agreement should also be signed to prevent the driver from secretly selling the fish in the car.

By the time I finished, it was already 1 p.m.

Awakened by the noise of the moving of goods, Yu Muzhou told Zhou Miao to go to a nearby hotel to rest, leaving the rest to him.

I woke up at 9 p.m.

Hungry, Zhou Miao went downstairs to find a place to eat, but unexpectedly ran into Pei Yunxi carrying a suitcase as soon as she got to the door.

The two of them were stunned at the same time, never expecting to meet here.

"What a coincidence, I didn't expect to run into you here."

Zhou Miao was extremely embarrassed. Because Luo Qianqian had gone to the distant sea with him, his plans had changed, and he was ultimately forced to give her up.

Pei Yunxi left quietly; everyone here is an adult, and some things don't need to be said explicitly.

But in this vast sea of ​​people, we unexpectedly met again in such a small place.

"Yes, what a coincidence..."

Pei Yunxi stared blankly at the somewhat disheveled Zhou Miao, thinking about the man's choice in Nanzhen, completely disregarding her own feelings.

She couldn't help but feel a little wronged, and her eyes reddened.

She hadn't cancelled her rental agreement and was waiting for Zhou Miao to contact her, but the man didn't even send her a message, as if she didn't exist in his life.

Heartbroken, she eventually left Nanzhen in silence, wandering aimlessly through one coastal town after another, not knowing where she was headed.

After some time, her mood finally calmed down a lot, but then she ran into him again in a coastal town more than a thousand kilometers away from Nanzhen.
