Chapter 494: A Large Area of Sea Turtles

It wasn't until the sky was completely dark that Ye Fu arrived late with a group of people.

Seeing the second sister-in-law in the crowd, they were relieved. They didn't have to cook anymore. Cooking for two days made this group of big men difficult.

Ye Yaodong also looked at his second sister-in-law happily. He had never felt his second sister-in-law so intimate. Anyway, it's okay for one of the two sisters-in-law to come.

"Is the rice cooked? Did you cook more?" Ye Fu asked hurriedly.

"Yes, cooked a full big pot, it should be enough for more than ten people to eat."

"That's good..."

Ye Yaodong counted the people who came, including his second sister-in-law, a total of 8 people, including two cousins from his uncle's house, and the other two middle-aged ones should be called by Uncle Pei, a total of seven men and one woman.

"Didn't A Guang come?"

"His wife will give birth in a month or so. There is no one at home who can help. He dare not leave. When the time comes, he has to rely on his mother-in-law."

"Ah yes, yes, this jellyfish doesn't know when it can be caught. He should watch at home. Earning money is important, and wife and children are more important."

Uncle Pei nodded with a smile, "Yes, and there is a boat at home. Although it is released, it also needs people to receive goods. He stays at home to take care of it, and it is just right to receive goods."

Ye Fu interrupted, "Okay, then hurry up and eat first, talk while eating, and process those jellyfish after eating. It's already very late to delay until now."

While eating, Ye Yaodong knew that they also arrived in the afternoon, but they were itchy when they saw many jellyfish on the sea surface, so they delayed for a long time.

Then they asked for boats all the way, but couldn't find the village, so they went directly to the town to make a phone call.

Anyway, it's safe to arrive.

Fortunately, the educated youth spot has 4 rooms. Ye Yaohua and the second sister-in-law have one, Uncle Pei and the 3 people he brought have one, the two brothers and his father and Ye Yaosheng have one, and the other 4 cousins have one. Fortunately, they are all big kang, and they can squeeze together.

Then take turns sleeping on the boat for two people every night to prevent accidents.

After arranging properly, after eating, everyone helped them process the jellyfish, and then everyone went to bed early.

No one called the next day. At two or three o'clock in the middle of the night, everyone got up to wash.

Although they got up early, everyone was extra full of spirit, looking like they were ready to do a big job at any time.

When they arrived at the shore, they attracted a lot of attention. People on the shore who hadn't boarded the boat cast their eyes on them one after another.

However, his eldest brother and second brother were also confused when they saw the villagers, why were they all bruised and swollen and limping?

"Are you here with new friends again?" Lu Hongwei saw them and walked over, asking curiously.

Everyone around also pricked up their ears.

"Yes, these are my own brothers and cousins, all my own people. Are you okay? Didn't you rest for another day before going to sea?"

"Got an injection and it's much better. How can I take care of rest? Now is the fishing season. One day without going to sea is a day's loss. Our family of dozens of people relies on this fishing season to earn more money."

"Then you won yesterday? Did you grab the loss back?"

"Almost. At first, I caught them off guard and grabbed things back. Later, they also went to sea to call people. It was quite miserable to fight, but we retreated while fighting, and there was no serious injury. It's not a big problem. Originally, the two villages were close, and there were many conflicts. I just don't know if I will come over to find the place after dawn today."

Lu's fourth son also said on the side: "Originally, there were a few big boats docked here, they were all yours. We were just saying, why did a few big boats suddenly appear on the shore?"

"Are you quite rich in the village? Why can you come out with three big boats casually, and they are all your own family."

"Still okay... right? So-so, there are a few more big boats than you. Our village is quite big, and there are boats from neighboring villages docked at our village pier. Go to the boat first, talk later."

Ye Yaodong said lightly, and seeing that others had boarded the boat, they didn't say much, and hurriedly boarded the boat.

After they left, the people on the shore started whispering again, but everyone was in a hurry to go to sea to catch fish, and no one had time to stay there and talk.

The two boats that just came were not familiar with the surroundings, and they followed Ye Yaodong's boat, but kept a distance from each other.

Anyway, it is the fishing season, and jellyfish are floating everywhere on the sea surface. Everyone catching together in this unfamiliar place can also take care of each other, and can also prevent encountering unreasonable people.

How to say they are all from out of town, it is better to hold a group. After all, the sea is a place outside the law, and whoever has a big fist has the final say. More people can also have an advantage.

The resources around the coast will be less than the slightly farther sea area, and they didn't put the net, just took a hand-scoop net to catch jellyfish specifically.

At this time, Ye Yaodong couldn't help but pity. His ground cage was not brought over, otherwise he could put a ground cage and get some seafood as a dish. Yesterday's meal was caught by his eldest brother and second brother by the way.

However, he thought he might be able to drag a net around before returning, for a short time, the goods dragged were not many, and the net-lifting machine should be able to pull it up.

Actually, this drag net is not necessarily more efficient than scooping them up one by one with a hand-scoop net.

Because putting the net takes time, you have to organize the fishing net, the fishing net will take ten or twenty minutes to go down, and the process of lifting the net also takes half an hour. The distribution of jellyfish is also uneven. If the quantity is large and concentrated, it is also fast to use the fishing net directly.

It can only be said that both methods have advantages and disadvantages.

When they used the net pocket to scoop yesterday

Big Brother Ye and the others next door also discovered them, but they actually let them get away while scooping? When the two boats got closer due to the fishing, they asked.

"These things don't have eyes, how could they still get away?"

"Yeah, Dongzi, you're familiar with this stuff. Once we got close, how did they still run off? It didn't look that hard to scoop up."

Ye Yaodong shouted: "When you want to scoop them up, you have to cut the engine and stop the boat in advance. Jellyfish don't have eyes, but haven't you noticed that there are little shrimp clinging to the jellyfish's head? And every single jellyfish has them."

They looked carefully at the jellyfish on the sea surface and all said one after another: "Eh? There really are..."

"The shrimp clinging to the jellyfish's head act as its eyes. If the shrimp escape, it will follow them and run off too."

Ye Yaopeng suddenly realized, "So that's how it is..."

"No wonder... Dongzi, you really know a lot!" Ye Yaohua said with admiration. He hadn't even realized that he was becoming more and more convinced by Ye Yaodong.

"Jellyfish travel with shrimp as eyes—I heard this saying in the village yesterday, and once I connected the dots, I knew."

Ye's father also nodded; he had heard this saying too.

The three boats kept a distance that was neither too far nor too close, each scooping their own, and because they were further out, there were no small wooden boats around, nor were there any large ships in sight, so it was quite peaceful.

Just as Ye Yaodong was moving forward with the wind, he discovered a patch of gray-green things suddenly floating on the sea surface ahead. They looked like they were moving, but the speed of movement was not fast.

He stretched his neck to look, but because there was some distance, he couldn't see clearly, and the ripples on the water surface were bobbing up and down, making it impossible to distinguish.

"Dad, let's speed the boat up in that direction and go take a look. It feels like there's something on the sea surface there. It's a whole patch, and I don't know what it is. Let's get closer and see."

Ye's father looked in the direction his finger was pointing and also discovered that the color of the water surface there seemed different, as if something was floating on it.

"Alright."

The others, who were processing jellyfish, couldn't help but lift their heads and look over.

"Eh? Could it be a school of fish?"

"Really?"

"Ah? I was just saying that..."

"No... this looks very much like a school of fish, such a large patch... maybe we really did run into a passing school of fish..." Ye Yaosheng said, becoming a bit excited.

Ye Yaodong leaned against the side of the boat, also a bit excited, "We'll know once we get closer."

The two boats not far away were puzzled when they saw them suddenly accelerate, but since they were still scooping jellyfish there, they just thought about catching up later.

The few people on Ye Yaodong's boat stopped slaughtering and segmenting jellyfish, all leaning against the side of the boat, curiously stretching their necks, wanting to see what that whole patch ahead really was.

As the fishing boat accelerated and approached, they finally saw what the patch of things on the sea surface was.

"A gray-green patch? And it's just floating there?"

"Holy crap? Turtles?"

"Ah? It's turtles?"

"It's sea turtles, holy crap... damn it, a whole patch of sea turtles? I thought it was some school of fish, what a waste of excitement." Ye Yaodong's face, which had been happy and expectant, fell instantly.

"That's not right, Dongzi. This whole patch of sea turtles is quite a lot. It's worth a lot of money if we scoop them up, Dongzi... can't we just use the nets to scoop them up and sell them?" The eldest cousin was very pleasantly surprised.

"Yeah, these sea turtles can be sold for money, and they're quite valuable. Such a big patch, we're going to get rich again. I'm going to get the net." The second cousin excitedly planned to run to the cabin to get the net, and Ye Yaosheng followed closely behind.

At this time, sea turtles had not yet been upgraded to second-level protected animals, and everyone had no awareness of protecting sea turtles. One by one, they were all very happy and joyful, immediately wanting to get the fishing nets and catch them all in one go.

You have to know, sea turtles are not easy to see normally, let alone such a large group of them—how rare must that be!

"Wait, wait..."

His inner self was in a battle between heaven and man. Other second-level animals could be scooped if they were scooped, after all, they hadn't been classified yet.

But these sea turtles were a bit different.

"What's wrong, Dongzi? Hurry up and scoop, don't let others get there first. With so many, you'll definitely make a big profit."

Ye's father looked at him struggling there and said with some surprise: "You aren't planning not to scoop them, are you?"

"Huh?"

Ye Yaodong looked innocently at everyone who was surprised.
