I rely on fishing to achieve freedom in life

Chapter 123 Bailang’s fresh cargo target!

The two chatted for a while, and Wang Jianguo and others woke up one after another.

With a professional seafood boat like Tan Bingwei following them, Dazhu and Wang Jianping returned to Bailang's fishing boat, while the other two large cargo ships were left to Tan Bingwei's people to drive.

The village chief looked at the time, returned to the cabin and started sailing, and then drove towards the place he mentioned.

Wang Jianguo's wife had already started cooking breakfast at this time, which could save time and solve the problem of breakfast on the way to fishing.

This is actually the normal life of people who go to sea. As long as they start fishing, everything must be done quickly.

Bailang squatted on the deck, holding a big plate with noodles in his hand.

Squatting beside him was Tang Dahai.

"Boss Bai, what are your plans today?"

Tang Dahai asked while eating noodles.

"We are going to a good fishing spot today. There are currents converging there, and we often find some schools of fish."

It was also Bailang's first time to go there, so you would have to go to know what the situation is like in that place.

To be honest, although there is a high probability that there will be fish in this traditional fishing spot, because there are so many people who know about it, there will definitely be people fishing there often, so it is not that easy to catch fish.

Tang Dahai nodded and didn't ask any more questions.

He glanced behind and said, "Tan Bingwei's seafood boat is not particularly fast and has fallen behind."

Bai Lang also turned and looked back, and found that the seafood boat could only see a small shadow at this time.

"It's okay, as long as they can find the right direction. Whether we set the hook or lower the net, it will take a certain amount of time, as long as they can arrive before we catch the seafood."

Bailang waved his hand, not caring about this matter at all.

Seafood boats are not known for their speed. It would take several hours for them to release the hooks with so many people. Even with such a long time, Tan Bingwei and the others could catch up.

"Boss Tang, there is one thing you must pay attention to. The seafood we catch must arrive at the shore in the shortest possible time. It cannot be like an ocean-going fishing boat that takes ten days and a half to go out."

"What I mean is that we can fish at sea for a longer time, but the fishing boats transporting seafood must not float at sea for too long."

"My idea is very simple, that is, you have to go back every two or three days. If possible, it is best to go back on the same day."

Bailang thought about this matter last night.

He knows that if seafood wants to sell for a good price, the most important thing is that it must be fresh!

There is only one way to do this, and that is to catch the seafood and transport it back to the dock in the shortest possible time.

If this is not possible, it is impossible to meet the standard of freshness. The ones that can be sustained are better, and the others that cannot be sustained will become less valuable the longer they last.

Tang Dahai frowned.

He knew very well what Bailang meant.

For a long time, in the field of seafood, it has been mainly divided into three different products.

One is ocean cargo, the other is large cargo, and the third is small cargo.

Ocean cargo refers to seafood caught by ocean-going fishing boats. Because ocean-going fishing boats fish far away, it may take a year and a half to return to shore.

Such seafood must be chilled on board or even processed directly.

Big cargo refers to the seafood caught by fishing boats that go fishing in the open sea. The usual time is ten days and a half.

The seafood caught by such fishing boats must also be chilled. The real difference from offshore fishing boats is that offshore fishing boats usually have the function of processing, while large cargo ships do not have this function.

Small boat cargo is very simple, that is, fishing on the coast or offshore, and usually the caught seafood can be returned to the dock in a few hours.

In terms of freshness, small shipments are undoubtedly the best.

Bailang's meaning is very simple, that is, he hopes to deliver the caught seafood to the dock in the shortest possible time to realize the delivery of cargo by small boats.

"Boss Bai, I understand what you mean, but it's not easy to do this. There are only two ways."

"One is to catch live fish, such as the Eastern Star Spot this time. If it is pulled up alive, we can feed it, even if it is raised for three to five days, it will be fine. But if it is seafood that will die when it comes out of the water, we want to do that. This is not easy.”

"There is not much of a problem in transportation. As long as the distance is not too far, you can do it back and forth on the same day. But you need to meet another requirement, which is to catch a boat full of fish in the shortest possible time."

Tang Dahai knew very well that if he wanted to achieve the freshness of small ship cargo, the real key point was Bailang.

If he can catch enough fish to fill a boat in the shortest time, then he can definitely achieve the fresh goal of a small boat load.

As a seafood merchant, he naturally hopes that the seafood should be as fresh as possible.

However, considering the actual conditions, it is not easy to do this.

Bailang also knew that Tang Dahai was right. If he wanted to achieve the goal of small ship cargo, he had to catch the most seafood in the shortest time, so as to shorten the waiting time.

However, this matter may be difficult for others, but for Bailang, it is just a small challenge.

Unless something unexpected happens, he can definitely do this.

"Boss Bai, can you really do it? It's not that I don't believe in your ability, but it's definitely not an easy task to fill up the entire fishing boat in a few hours."

Tang Dahai hesitated for a moment, Bailang's ability was beyond doubt, and this had already been proven.

However, it is definitely a challenge to achieve the freshness of small shipments within a few hours.

After all, that seafood ship is a large ship that can carry [-] to [-] kilograms of fish at a time.

"I plan to try it today. As I said just now, if nothing else happens, I should be able to do it."

Bai Lang smiled, he actually already had a rough plan.

This is why he asked the village chief if there were any traditional fishing grounds nearby.

"Boss Bai, can you stop being so pretentious and tell me directly what the solution is?"

Seeing how confident he looked, Tang Dahai was really curious.

"Hahaha, I won't tell you this yet. You can see for yourself whether you can do it or not."

Bailang shook his head and ignored Tang Dahai.

Breakfast had been eaten and it was almost time. He was about to start working.

Seeing Bailang like this, Tang Dahai had no choice but to wait patiently and see how Bailang handles this matter.

Bailang stood on the bow of the ship and observed the surrounding environment. There were still two or three hours before dawn, so he could only see clearly a nearby area illuminated by lights.

Especially when the fishing boat moves forward, the waves are very obvious, and sometimes you can even see some small fish jumping out of the water.

"200 meters to the northeast, there are 135 sand pointed fish, each weighing one or two."

"500 meters southwest, there are 25 cuttlefish, each weighing three taels."

"700 meters due west, there are 45 big head fishes, all weighing two kilograms."

Bailang has been paying attention to the information refreshed by the system.

He found that starting from this place, the frequency and density of information refreshed were much higher than those from the previous place. "The closer to the open sea, the more fish there are. Although it is not a valuable thing, it is indeed much better than the offshore places."

This is actually normal. The open sea waters are wide and the sea water is deep, so naturally there are more types of fish and shrimps that can be supported.

At the same time, the further the distance, the number of people who usually come here to fish will gradually decrease.

No matter from any aspect, the fishery resources here should be richer than in coastal areas.

Bailang had no intention of taking action for the time being.

He was just passing by to see if there would be any unexpected gains.

But after observing for an hour continuously, he still found that he had taken it for granted.

Although many fish schools were discovered along the way, the number of these fish schools was relatively small and the types of fish were relatively ordinary, so it was not worth taking action at all.

"It seems like we have to go to the place the village chief said and see if we can get anything."

Bailang shook his head.

At this time, we were still about half an hour away from the fishing spot mentioned by the village chief.

Taking advantage of this time, Bailang simply exited the system and took a rest. Anyway, it doesn't make much sense to continue reading now.

He took two bottles of mineral water and walked into the cabin.

"how is the situation?"

The village chief took the water from Bailang while driving the fishing boat.

In fact, he already knew the answer without even asking.

Bailang spent more than an hour on the bow of the boat observing and tracking the fish, but there was no movement. From this, we knew that he must have found nothing.

"There are indeed some schools of fish in this place, and there are quite a lot of them, but overall, the number, size, and even species are a bit unsatisfactory. To be honest, I'm not interested in them."

Bailang shook his head, opened the mineral water and took a deep sip.

I had been standing on the bow of the boat blowing the sea breeze for more than an hour, and I was really thirsty.

The village chief nodded. It was not surprising at all that Bailang made such a choice.

For other people who go fishing at sea, mosquitoes are nothing but meat no matter how small they are. As long as there are schools of fish, they are good fish. But for Bailang, this is not the case.

They really don't pay attention to some small fish and shrimps now.

"Village Chief, what is the situation in the place you mentioned?"

Bailang saw that it wouldn't take long to reach the fishing spot he mentioned, so he simply asked more about the situation.

"Not many people know about that place. Because there are several small currents that meet there, there are often larger schools of fish. Many times if you arrive late, the spot may have been occupied by others."

The village chief told him in detail what he knew.

Bailang originally thought that there were more fish gathering in that area, which was due to the terrain of that area, but now it sounds like it has nothing to do with the terrain, but mainly with the ocean currents.

In the vast sea, there are always some ocean currents that are generated for unknown reasons. These ocean currents are not big, and no one usually notices them at all. Only some old fishermen discover them accidentally, and then pass them on by word of mouth and preserve them.

But no matter what, as time goes by, more and more people know about it, and it gradually evolves into a well-known good fishing spot.

And I heard from the village chief that there might be no seats available at that place, and Bailang didn't care too much.

In his opinion, if there are really many people fishing in that place, the worst thing is to find another place.

In the vast ocean, there are many places where fish can be found, so there is no need to stick to one spot.

Bailang is more concerned about another thing now.

"Village chief, you just said that there are fish schools in that place because several ocean currents converge together?"

"If that's the case, those fish obviously swam from other places along the ocean currents."

Where there are ocean currents converging, there will be a lot of fish gathering. This is a very simple common sense.

Because the intersection of ocean currents often brings a large amount of food, and those fish schools come after the food.

"If there are no seabed structures such as reefs or obstacles in a place, it is impossible for fish schools to survive in such a place for a long time. The important thing is that the fish that appear in that place are also relatively large. From this point of view, Maybe your guess is correct, prodigal son.”

The village chief was smoking a cigarette and chatting with Bailang.

He hadn't thought too much about this before.

In his opinion, fishing is just fishing. Wherever there are fish, he just sets the net or sets the hook, never thinking about where the fish come from.

But now that Bai Lang mentioned this matter and made a judgment, he felt that there should be nothing wrong.

With many years of fishing experience, he can actually easily analyze Bailang's conclusion.

"Prodigal son, do you have any ideas?"

The village chief knew that Bailang would never do anything wrong.

Since I mentioned this matter, I must have had something in mind.

"I do have some ideas, but whether it will work or not, we won't know until we get there."

Bailang nodded.

He had just asked the village chief for this information, and he did have his own purpose, but whether it could be used would have to go to the place mentioned by the village chief and see the specific situation before he could make a decision.

The village chief was old and did not have the strong curiosity of young people, so he simply stopped asking about the matter.

No matter what Bailang's plan is, it won't take long for it to be revealed. You can just watch it when the time comes.

On the other side, Tang Dahai and Wang Jianguo stayed together.

We haven't reached our destination yet, so we don't need to prepare for fishing yet.

"Boss Tang, how much can the seafood boat you just bought hold? Although it looks big, it can't hold much."

While Wang Jianguo was smoking a cigarette, he got into an argument with Tang Dahai, who was sitting next to him.

He knew Bailang's ability. If he really tried his best to fish, that seafood boat might not be enough.

"That's right, Boss Tang, that ship looks quite big, so I'm worried that it won't be useful."

Wang Dayong was also a little worried.

Although they had gone to the boat to take a closer look before, they were not very impressed.

It's really because such a seafood boat is quite different from a traditional fishing boat. In a sense, this seafood boat is closer to a small cruise ship, which is really a bit strange.

"Hahaha, I discovered one thing, that is, after you went out to sea to fish with Boss Bai, your self-confidence has exploded. In the past, when you went out to sea in a small boat that could carry two or three thousand kilograms, you thought it was enough. Why? Now you still underestimate my big ship that can carry [-] kilograms."

Tang Dahai couldn't help laughing loudly when he heard what Wang Jianguo and Wang Dayong said.

Of course he knew that these people who went out to sea to fish with Bailang had a great harvest, and over time they had forgotten the truth about going out to sea to fish.
