Ye Yaodong turned his head and glanced at the stern of the boat. There were indeed several large fish with exposed fins chasing behind the fishing boat. He didn't know if they were attracted by the smell of blood.

When a fishing boat is moving, big fish will chase behind it and eat small fish.

"It's there in the first place. Maybe it's attracted a little by the smell of blood. It doesn't matter. It's raining heavily and the ship is moving. The smell is not strong and it will be diluted after a while."

"Oh shit...they're all sharks..."

As soon as Ye Yaodong finished speaking, he realized that he had said it wrong. There were sharks behind the stern of the boat...

Maybe he was really attracted by the smell of blood.

At this time, he saw the black shadow speeding past again, and the big flag waving in the wind was conspicuous in the dark night, and he immediately breathed out the fragrance...

"...fucking...grass..."

"You guys hide better and don't come out yet. I'll quickly change direction and leave this area. There are indeed swordfish on the sea. The crow's mouth like me is right..."

They are really a school of fish. I saw one, and there may be a group of them in the sea.

Ye Yaodong glanced at the two fish that were still twitching and felt relieved. Be careful and don't get too close. It shouldn't be a big problem.

He entered the cockpit with the gun, placed it directly on the console, and then slowly turned the ship's bow.

He had just let the boat move forward on its own and was far away from the other two boats. At this time, he ignored the dots of various colors on the display screen and moved closer to the other two boats.

He did not speed up, but continued to work at the pace of 2 to 4 knots. It was not a crisis moment, and he still had to take care of the goods in the fishing nets below.

Even though his body was wet, Ye Yaodong didn't have time to change. He also entered the small channel to connect with the other two people and informed them that there was a swordfish and suggested that he stay away from this area.

He also told vividly that the tip of the sailfish's snout could penetrate the hull of a steel ship, and a hole was dug in his rest room.

Fortunately, it's a rest warehouse and not another storage warehouse, otherwise I might have to go back immediately now.

There must have been no one lying around in the chaos at that time, and everyone must have gathered around the door to watch.

Later, when the fish is completely dead, they can get the fish out. Then they will get some cloth strips to block the hole first, and then go out for inspection after returning.

Upon hearing this, the other two boats also cooperated and left the area first, and asked him a few questions with concern.

As Ye Yaodong sailed the boat, he paid attention to his surroundings and the stern of the boat. There were still fish following him. He just wanted to stay away from dangerous things like swordfish.

With the speed and impact of this fish, if it rushes towards a fishing boat, it can jump over the fishing boat and hit people. We have seen it in the news, and this fish is widely distributed, so sometimes it is difficult to guard against it.

He and the other two boats worked away from this area. After sailing for more than an hour, everyone discussed whether they should work in the surrounding area tonight and wait until dawn tomorrow to see if the situation should be changed.

The workers also came out of the rest cabin early and went to the deck to see the two big fish.

The vitality of this kind of fish, which is three to five meters in size, does not dissipate so quickly.

They waited for a long time and noticed that there seemed to be no movement before going out to take a look. However, they did not dare to get too close, and there was no word from Ye Yaodong. No one moved the two fishes, they just squatted there and watched.

Ye Yaodong first changed out of his wet clothes, then put on his raincoat before walking out to the deck. It was still raining outside.

"Brother Dong...this is all dead..."

"What to do now?"

He walked over and kicked the great white shark, and blood oozed from the deck that had been washed clean by the rain. "It's really big enough. Let's drain the blood from it first. There's also a swordfish."

At this time, the snout was still stuck in the rest cabin. Ye Yaodong also looked closer and kicked it a few times, and then asked someone to help pull the fish out.

"Let's bleed it. Although it has been dead for a while, it is not too late. The holes that were poked out should be plugged first, and we can repair them when we go back in a few days."

Everyone was discussing in the rain.

"These two fish are too big..."

"It's hard to pull it out, it's so slippery..."

"The person who just explained to A Dong didn't dare to stick his head out to look at it. It's a pity that two such big fish died together."

"I have never seen such a big fish in my life..."

"I've seen a lot these days."

"Brother Dong will tell you how he died later."

Ye Yaodong said: "How else can you die? Even if you are stupid, you can rush to the ship. If the gun doesn't kill them, who will they kill?"

"It's already dark, and it's raining again. You guys need to be more agile, and you'll be able to get online later. There's still plenty of work to do."

He watched the workers bleed on the spot, walked back and forth, and warned them.

"Okay...are we safe now? There shouldn't be any big fish coming up, right?"

"That's hard to say. Just be more alert."

"Fortunately there are guns on the boat..."

"How much can such a big fish be sold for?"

"We should be able to sell a lot of them. It's so rare. Not just any boat can catch such a big fish..."

Ye Yaodong saw that the two fish had been placed together for bleeding, so he went up to the helm first.

The rain didn't seem to stop at all, and I didn't know if it was going to rain all night.

He sneezed several times and needed to drink more hot water.

After the two fish were bled and dragged to the freezer, the deck was washed away by the rain. Ye Yaodong saw that the time was almost up and asked everyone to prepare to set up the net.

If we hadn't encountered these two fish today, we would have been very relaxed. We would have been weighing the fish there this afternoon, taking breaks intermittently.

Unlike the past few days, I was busy working there all day long. No one could rest until the fish was sorted.

In the evening and this morning during the shift, I could barely rest, but how could I have a good rest on the ship?

Ye Yaodong couldn't rest well either. There were already thick dark circles and bags under his eyes. He was a little worried at night, so he decided to stay up until midnight by himself.

But he is much better than a worker. At least he is in the cockpit and is not exposed to wind, sun or rain, so he is more comfortable.

It was raining at this time, so the workers had to keep raising nets for sorting.

When he was closing half of the net, he went down to take a look again and get some food.

While watching them sorting, he spotted a miniature swordfish on the lid of the fish bin. He curiously picked it up, put it in his hand, and took it with him.

The swordfish is usually 3-5 meters in length and weighs 100 kilograms or even more. However, who would have thought that the ferocious swordfish is only as big as a grain of rice when it is just born.

However, in just one year, it can quickly grow from a "mini fish" of a few centimeters to a large fish of three to five meters in length. Its size increases by nearly a hundred times at a rapid rate, transforming it into a "top ocean hunter".

Ye Yaodong placed the mini version of the swordfish on the operating table, looked at it curiously, and even measured it with gestures. It was not even 5 centimeters.

But the snout is still long, taking up 1/3 of the body.

He thought about putting this in an iron box, putting some ice cubes to keep it fresh, and taking it back to show the freshness to his children at home.

It wasn't until daybreak that nothing happened, so he safely handed over the boat to his old cousin and went back to the lounge to sleep.

He didn't know when it stopped raining. When he got up from sleep, it had stopped raining, but the sky was still gray. It was hard to tell whether it was morning or evening. The wind was still so strong. Without looking at the time, he would never have guessed it was two in the afternoon.

Three o'clock.

He had the great white shark and swordfish from yesterday taken out and placed together, and then took a photo. This was his achievement.

Not to mention this era, it will still be worth showing off in the future.

After I get back, I will develop the photos taken by the camera during this period and show them to my children at home.

It also lets them know how powerful they are, how difficult it is to make money, and what kind of risks they have experienced at sea, so that they can have the good life they have now.

The old cousin also reported to him how many nets he caught during his break, how many kilograms of fish he caught, and which fish were more abundant.

"A Dong's camera is all used to take pictures of fish... no one has seen you take pictures..."

"Haha, because humans are not as valuable as this fish."

Ye Yaodong said with a smile: "I'm not taking pictures, I'm documenting my life, you know? These are all my achievements. When I get older, when I open the photo album, it will remind me of how awesome I was when I was young."

"You have thought so far ahead and still think about when you are old."

"How far is it? I am already 30 years old. If my life is not that good, I will only have 30 years left until I retire at the age of 60. Life goes by very quickly."

He went back to 1982 in the blink of an eye and was 40 years younger. It is normal for him to think about things 40 years from now.

In my last life, I was still doing it when I was in my sixties, but I don’t want to be doing it in my sixties in this life.

Now I just want to wait until I am old enough to take care of myself with Ah Qing, and then look through my memories to prove that I really came back and everything I experienced is real and there is evidence.

These photos are not so much his achievements as traces of his existence.

"If you retire at 60, your life will be bad? Then what do we call it? A life of hard work."

"Retiring at the age of 60 is not considered a bad fate. People with good fortune retire at the age of 40 or 50 and play with their grandchildren at home. Those who are really unlucky have no grandchildren at the age of 60 and may still be working there to support them.

The son earns money from his wife, but he is still worried that he will not be able to find a wife."

"Hahaha, if so, how could you not get a wife?"

"Hard to say."

Ye Yaodong chatted with everyone for a while, but no one believed what he said, so they just treated it as a joke.

In an era when there were no mobile phones, it was even more boring to be at sea. There was no village in front of you, no store in back, and a small boat floating on the sea. In addition to working, everyone could only pass the time by chatting.

Even people like Ye Yaodong, who is not very fond of mobile phones, find it difficult. He has to look at the calendar several times every day and count the numbers.

After finally surviving another week, the two fishing boats discussed finding a fresh harvesting boat, and he breathed a sigh of relief.
