Yi Xiaolong said nothing more.
According to Yi Xiaolong's usual thinking, "not wanting" means having less.
No conversation along the way.
Yi Xiaolong hasn't thought about some specific matters yet. He doesn't know whether he should give more shares or just go with the flow, so he simply keeps silent.
Li Chao understood everything, but he just kept smiling and said nothing.
Li Gesheng kept staring at the screen, and he and the photographer were startled and had no time to pay attention to their surroundings.
Xiang Yang simply discussed with Chen Qingsheng, "Old Chen, do you think we can drag one online now?"
Chen Qingsheng looked around and said, "Of course we can, but I don't think it's necessary. Look, we can see the coastline from the bow. Captain, you know the fishery resources here better than I do. If we cast a net, we may not be able to recover the cost. Even if we are lucky enough to catch a considerable amount of fish, we only have a dozen crew members on board, and most of them are not sailors."
Xiang Yang nodded. He was a professional fisherman and knew that what Chen Qingsheng said was right. In a sea area like this, apart from some valuable marine life on the seabed, it was basically unlikely that any valuable catches would appear in the water layer or on the water surface.
However, Xiang Yang didn't gain anything from this voyage, and he felt a little unwilling. He wondered if he could cast a net on the way back to at least get back the gas money.
But Xiang Yang also knew that this trip was not for fishing. It was not easy to earn back the fuel money after starting an ocean-going fishing boat. If the fuel cost could be earned back by just making a circle near the coast, then all the rich people in the world would invest in fishing boats.
Xiang Yang walked to the bow, leaned over the side, and scanned the sea level carefully.
After being transformed by the mysterious jade shell, Xiang Yang's vision became exceptionally sharp. Although he couldn't stand on the deck and directly cross the air and sea water to see the scenery under the sea, he had no problem seeing a depth of more than ten or twenty meters under the water.
Zhang Qicheng walked up to Xiang Yang with great interest. He patted the railing and asked, "Brother Xiang, do you want to cast a net?"
Xiang Yang nodded and shouted into the intercom: "This is Xiang Yang, the cab received, please reply."
There was a blank tone in the intercom, and after a moment someone answered: "This is the cab. The cab received the answer. Complete."
"The fishing boats should slow down. We will look for a suitable fishing ground, drag a net and then return to Qinglongwan." Xiang Yang said.
"Yes, Captain."
Xiang Yang put away the intercom and said with a smile: "I am not as wealthy as you, Brother Zhang. When I come out, I should at least get back the money for the meal, right?"
"Okay." Zhang Qicheng also smiled and said, "I'm waiting for your fish to be cooked at home. If you can catch some fish, no matter what kind of fish it is, I'll buy it from you at 90% of the market price."
Obviously, Zhang Qicheng also knew some deep-sea fishing techniques. He was very sure that it would be difficult to catch any decent fish in such waters, so he dared to directly ask Xiang Yang for such a high purchase price.
Zhang Qichao would suffer at least a double loss if he purchased fish at 90% of the market price, plus the shipping, labor, management, feed, storage space, and the fish that died along the way. The more he collected, the greater his loss.
Xiang Yang smiled and did not reject Zhang Qichao's proposal. "Then I would like to thank you for your kindness, Brother Zhang."
Xiang Yang lowered his head and continued to carefully search for schools of fish in the sea.
"Hey, what is that?" Xiang Yang's eyes suddenly lit up, and he quickly shouted into the intercom: "Driver, please pay attention, the fishing boat's route should be adjusted 15 degrees to the west, and continue to slow down."
"Captain, we can't adjust the course to the west. If we do, the sea depth will not be enough and the fishing boat may hit a reef or even run aground." The person in the cockpit shouted while staring at the display screen of the sonar detector.
Xiang Yang raised his eyebrows. If a distant-water fishing vessel ran aground or even ran aground just for a net of relatively valuable sea fish, then the deal would be a huge loss.
This deal is not worth it.
Xiang Yang asked into the intercom: "Can you be more careful and avoid the reefs?"
"We have sonar detectors, so it's no problem for us to avoid the reefs. At least after turning ten degrees west, we can only sail for a maximum of minutes before we have to readjust our course and return to the original route. The sea water is not deep enough for a large ocean-going fishing vessel to sail." A voice came from the intercom.
Xiang Yang calculated carefully, more than ten minutes, this distance is enough.
"Okay, shift the bow ten degrees to the west and speed up. All the engine room crew members gather at the winch. We will drop a net. In five minutes, the fishing boat will return to its normal route and head straight for Qinglong Bay. We will collect the net after docking." Xiang Yang gave the order.
"Yes, Captain."
At Xiang Yang's command, the crew members immediately took action.
"Captain." As the first mate, Chen Qingsheng did not need to stand on the deck and wait like the other crew members. He was responsible for everything on the entire deck and was required to do all the work, or he could do nothing.
"What's the matter?" Xiang Yang asked.
Chen Qingsheng hesitated for a moment, then said, "Captain, this is already near the coast, and we are still returning. If the route deviates to the west, it will be a completely unfamiliar sea area for the crew. In addition, the sonar detector shows that there are many reefs in that sea area. We may really run aground on the reefs. If we really run aground on the reefs, it will be a big trouble."
Xiang Yang raised his eyebrows. Chen Qingsheng's worries were not unreasonable. However, Xiang Yang saw through the water that although there were some reefs under this sea area, those reefs were not very high. Only a very small number of them might scratch the bottom of the fishing boat. With the sonar detection system, the probability of a fishing boat running aground was extremely small.
"I actually did it on purpose." Xiang Yang said.
Chen Qingsheng looked at Xiang Yang in surprise. If Xiang Yang was not the captain, if Xiang Yang was not the owner of the ship, if Xiang Yang was not standing on the ship himself, he would have punched Xiang Yang in the nose without hesitation.
If a fishing boat hits a reef, it would be extremely scary and the boat might even sink.
As the captain of a ship, how could you do such a dangerous thing? Isn't that playing with the lives of the entire ship
"When sailing on the sea, especially when sailing in the open ocean or even fishing around the world, running aground is very scary, but it is indeed possible. If we suddenly run aground while sailing in the open ocean, we will definitely be in a panic, and even turn a small matter into a big one."
