Alaska Gold Rush

Chapter 484 I am a successful person

Attending a party that looked pretty good and meeting some friends that he might not have close friendship with was a good thing for Chen Ruobai.

Socializing, this is also a more important thing. He is still a cheerful and playful person at heart. Even if his career has made some progress and he has made some money, he does not intend to be completely alone and inaccessible.

Chen Ruobai has always known that he has a girlfriend. Although he has been in love several times, he doesn't seem to be a particularly dedicated person, but he still has some bottom lines.

Even if it seems a little tempting, you must still refuse when you should refuse. In this regard, Chen Ruobai doesn't think there is anything wrong in what he did.

There's no such thing as love at first sight, the most he can do is just lust. It's just that if the price required to pay for this sexual desire is too high, then it will definitely not be accepted.

At the beginning of a new day, Chen Ruobai, who had slept until he woke up naturally, had not had time to think about his holiday arrangements when Heyman came.

Heyman said directly, "I know you don't like playing games. This is my biggest regret!"

It seems to be a pity that Chen Ruobai doesn't play games very much, but some of his friends like to play. The Devi guys stay at home and play games when they have nothing to do. Playing games with a few friends is also very interesting.

Seeing that Chen Ruobai was silent, Heyman continued, "If there are no work arrangements today, we can consider going fishing."

"You are a fisherman, how can you like fishing?" Chen Ruobai joked, "I have always heard that once a hobby becomes a career, you will quickly lose interest."

Heyman said nonchalantly, "I don't think this matter is difficult for me. I am a fisherman, and my way of working is not fishing."

This is true. Heyman's working method is to put out nets and cages, and he really doesn't fish with a fishing rod, so even a fisherman may prefer fishing as a leisure sport.

However, Chen Ruobai still asked with some doubts, "Is it because someone invited you to go fishing? Or do you know where there are beauties?"

Heyman immediately said proudly, "Of course, otherwise I wouldn't want to go to the sea. I just had enough of the feeling of being on the sea before I docked."

"I thought you came back after the cabin was full and you were taking a short break." Chen Ruobai joked, "But now it seems that you have to consider finding a new career. You have begun to hate the sea."

Hyman complained and said, "If the cabin can be filled, I will definitely continue to stay at sea. I don't like working at sea for a long time, but I need to make money, so I can only continue to work at sea."

Listening to what Heiman said, Chen Ruobai seemed to understand, "This time the trip to sea was not smooth?"

Heyman said with a wry smile, "It's quite unsatisfactory. It's very likely that I won't be able to meet the target for this fishing season, which will cost me a lot of money."

Commercial fishing in the United States basically has some indicators, that is, a quota. This is especially true here in Alaska. It doesn’t just mean how much fish can be caught. Sometimes it also needs to be allocated to various fishing boats. Excessive fishing is obviously not allowed.

Some captains are good at catching all the indicators, so they buy other captains' indicators. Every year, because of these indicators, many fishermen will fight openly and secretly, causing a lot of unhappiness, because these are related to their interests.

It seems that Hayman has encountered a setback. The last time I saw him, he was still in high spirits. He looked like he was going to do a great job this fishing season and return home with a full harvest.

But this time when he went out to sea, Heyman seemed to be deeply hit. This can only mean that the catch was not good, and this guy was hit hard.

This is also a completely understandable thing. There is no such thing as a flower that lasts a hundred days.

Even if Hyman is an excellent fisherman, he may not always be able to return home with a full load this time. Occasionally, things like not being able to find a school of fish will happen. As long as you get through this difficulty, maybe a bright future will appear.

Glancing at Chen Ruobai, Heiman continued, "There is a trainee sailor in my fleet. He didn't pay attention to his feet when putting the cage. We stopped working quickly and started to close the cage, but everything was still too big. late."

At this moment, Chen Ruobai seemed to be able to understand why something was wrong with Heyman. If you only heard about some things, you wouldn't have much feeling. But if it happens to you and sees it with your own eyes, it's a different feeling.

What's more, the situations Heiman mentioned are actually very dangerous, which is what many fishermen least want to see.

There are a lot of crab pots and other things piled on the deck. Once they get entangled in some ropes and dragged into the sea, there is basically no way to save them. At this stage, it is not necessarily due to the wind, waves or water temperature. It is simply that the crab pot is sinking too fast. Even if a crane or wire take-up machine is used to start to collect the cage, the person who is dragged down will not survive that moment.

Heyman looked at Chen Ruobai and joked, "So it's a good thing for you to become a gold digger. You don't have to worry about such things happening. And before him, one of my crew members crashed into the ship due to wind and waves. We contacted the rescue helicopter. But he still couldn't save one of his fingers."

Now Chen Ruobai could feel the reason for Heyman's frustration even more, because this trip to sea was really not smooth, and various accidents occurred.

Let's not talk about things like not making any money. Simply, a series of accidents must have greatly damaged morale and indeed affected work plans. This is definitely not a small matter.

As for things like losing money, Heyman and the others must have bought insurance, so there was no need for Heyman, the ship owner, to go bankrupt.

Just taking the person out by myself, but unable to bring the person back intact, there will definitely be some guilt and other emotions in my heart. These are actually things that make people feel more tormented.

Chen Ruobai sighed and said, "Things have already happened, and we can only look forward. Learn a lesson and don't let these things happen again."

"Learn a lesson?" Heyman complained, "I hear about accidents like this every year, and this is not the first time a similar situation has occurred in the fleet where I work. I thought I had been numb to these things for a long time. But I can’t do it.”

This seems to be true. If you really have no psychological fluctuations at all about this kind of thing, then you are not just numb, but can be said to be cold-blooded.

It is completely understandable that Heyman seems to be in a low mood. In the final analysis, everything is not going well. It is very normal for him to be a little depressed now, or to hold on to it.

Chen Ruobai didn't know what to say about this, or as a friend, the only thing he could do was to accompany Heiman to relax for a while. He did these things because he was still a relatively qualified friend. Hyman was very depressed and complained speechlessly, "You have worked on a fishing boat, and you also know that many fishermen are very superstitious about these things."

Of course Chen Ruobai knew this very well. He immediately asked, "Your crew members are not willing to work on the ship where the accident occurred?"

Heyman nodded and said depressedly, "One sailor lost his life, one sailor lost his ability to work, and one man chose to retreat after seeing these things. My fleet needs to recruit three people, this is not a big deal. Simple things."

This is no longer just a simple matter, it can even be said to be a very big challenge. Hayman's next fishing season may take a turn for the worse because of these things. This is not an exaggeration.

Now that the fishing season is underway, some experienced sailors and fishermen have found jobs early. And those who are not working now either have problems with their abilities or have unsatisfactory personalities.

For those offshore fishing boats, if they encounter a few weird things, their work efficiency will naturally be greatly affected, and it will become difficult to even start their work normally.

It can only be said that for Heyman, the next work will become very difficult and challenging, and it is unlikely that he will relax.

Chen Ruobai felt that he was helpless. In the past few years in Alaska, he had either been a logger or a gold digger. He had no resources about the fishing industry.

What's more, even if you have some resources, they probably won't be of much use. There are things that even Hayman, the captain of a successful fishing boat that has been operating in Alaska for a long time, can't handle. Naturally, Chen Ruobai, a layman, can't expect to provide more help.

This is just some complaints between friends, they are just discussing some minor problems at work.

As good friends, we can't just discuss romantic affairs, or discuss things about eating, drinking and having fun. Sometimes we also talk about some difficult issues in work or life.

This is what a friend is. Although most of the time, Chen Ruobai seems to play the role of a bad friend, but overall, he thinks he is quite a friend.

Since we were planning to accompany Heyman for a little entertainment and relaxation, there was nothing to hesitate about, just get ready to go.

For Heyman now, the most important thing is actually to adjust his mentality. The fishing season is not over yet, and there are many challenges ahead. Only by doing these things well can we calmly deal with the next series of challenges.

Setting off, Chen Ruobai felt that setting off now was the most important thing. He and Haiman had some small financial resources, so it would not be a burden to choose to have fun at this time.

Not only because of the money, but also because these two guys don't need to think about work for the time being, so of course they can be more relaxed.

Wood was very happy to see Chen Ruobai and Heiman, "I knew you would not miss such a good opportunity. More and more outsiders are coming to Alaska now, and many people need a vacation."

Heyman joked, "I just care about whether there are many girls at the party. I care more about whether they are single. These are the guests I should welcome."

"I don't want to belittle my customers, but there are indeed many young girls who want to attend high-end parties. They can only rely on their figure or appearance." Wood winked, looking understanding, "So you will not be disappointed, but this You also need to test your charm.”

There is no problem in saying so. The stage has been provided, but whether you can get what you want depends entirely on your ability. Most other people will not be able to help at this time.

These are the reality. Some people are very good at socializing and can enjoy these scenes.

Heyman pointed at Chen Ruobai and said with a smile, "This is my best wingman. His profession will make people a little curious. When those people know that he is very successful, they will be more curious about him. But he has a girlfriend, So the opportunity is mine!”

Looking at Heyman, Chen Ruobai gave a thumbs up and said, "Man, it seems like you are really scheming. I thought you invited me here just for friendship reasons, but I still underestimated you."

Heyman was not ashamed and said proudly, "I invited you because of friendship, but it's not just friendship!"

Chen Ruobai had nothing to say to such a shameless friend.

But he won't be angry or anything like that. It's just that if there is a suitable time, he will also consider things like forgetting friends. And even if it is done, there is obviously no psychological burden at all.

This is Chen Ruobai's attitude and point of view, which can be regarded as birds of a feather flocking together. He and Heiman are also very similar, so they can become very good friends in a relatively short period of time.

There was absolutely no problem in doing so. Chen Ruobai and Haiman boarded the yacht smoothly, and Haiman also showed his social side.

While Chen Ruobai was lazily basking in the sun, Heiman suddenly brought a few girls over, "This is this guy. He has a Porsche 911. You can discuss the driving experience with her."

Chen Ruobai also became happy, but quickly got into the role, "I have a very average feeling about that car. I think sports cars are not suitable for long-term driving. I like your style more, and the feeling of a business luxury car is better."

A girl with freckles asked, "Is it a Bentley or a Rolls-Royce?"

Chen Ruobai pointed at Heyman, "That guy is a successful man. Don't you know he often drives a Rolls-Royce?"

Bragging is not bragging, even though Heyman usually rents cars.

Heyman is now feeling proud, and Chen Ruobai is also quite content, especially after receiving the call from Kessler, he became even happier.
