Chapter 140: Orca Pushes The Boat
After hearing Yun Jiao’s words, Yun Linhai and the others couldn’t bother with oysters at this moment.
What kind of fish is as big as Jiaojiao said.
So the three of them hurriedly followed Yun Jiao to the side of the boat.
After seeing clearly what kind of fish the orcas were surrounding, their eyes went blank and they couldn’t believe it.
They rubbed their eyes and looked again: “It really is a bluefin tuna!”
Yun Linhe, excited, quickly ran forward a few steps, then swam into the sea.
Yun Linhai and Yun Chendong followed closely behind.
They had dealt with orcas several times and were not afraid of these giants now.
“Let’s see if it’s still alive.”
Mazu bless us, please don’t let it die before we can bleed it.
Many deep-sea fish are bled immediately after being caught while still alive. During struggle and pursuit, deep-sea fish produce a large amount of lactic acid due to strenuous activity, which can cause the flesh to become sour or loose. Bleeding helps maintain the firmness and texture of the fish meat.
Of course, Yun Linhai and the others didn’t know the specific reasons for this; for them, it was just experience passed down by fishermen.
Fortunately, the orcas had only stunned it, and dragging it in the sea afterwards allowed it to recover for a while; it was still alive now.
It just looked terrified, as if it could die at any moment.
“Quick, get it onto the boat to bleed it.”
The three of them worked together with Yun Jiao, using a fishing net to successfully get the over-two-hundred-pound bluefin tuna onto the boat.
The first thing they did was bleed the bluefin tuna.
“Hahahaha… Except for those ocean-going ships, I haven’t heard of anyone catching a bluefin tuna.”
After successfully bleeding the bluefin tuna, all three of them laughed.
Especially Yun Linhai and Yun Linhe, they were so happy that the wrinkles at the corners of their eyes deepened considerably.
Yun Linhe patted the bluefin tuna’s body: “Although we didn’t catch it, Jiaojiao did, so by extension, it’s like we caught it.”
They were simply too happy.
The excitement in their hearts hadn’t calmed down yet.
Yun Linhai hugged Yun Jiao and kissed her soft little face several times.
“How did our Jiaojiao become so amazing, to catch such a big bluefin tuna?”
Yun Jiao: Looked slightly displeased.
“Uncle, don’t kiss me, it’s saliva, saliva.”
Yun Linhe, who was disliked, burst into laughter.
The orcas below: What’s wrong? Is that person crazy?
Yun Linhai got up: “Let’s go back quickly, there’s no ice on the boat, we need to get this fish to Daqing Restaurant while it’s fresh.”
“Right, right, right.”
Yun Linhe also reacted.
“We need to be faster.”
Yun Jiao: “I still have some fish and spiny lobsters with Turtle Turtle.”
“Huh? Where’s the sea turtle?”
Yun Jiao shook her head: “I don’t know, Turtle Turtle ran away when it saw the orca pod.”
“Let’s not worry about it for now, this bluefin tuna is important, let’s go back first.”
Seeing their urgency, Yun Jiao thought for a moment and jumped into the sea.
“Jiaojiao, what are you doing?”
Yun Jiao, with extreme skill, rode on the back of an orca.
“Dad, Uncle, hold on tight.”
Before Yun Linhai and the others could react, they saw Yun Jiao communicate with the orca pod, and in the next second, two orcas suddenly pushed their boat.
The ship’s hull shook, and they quickly grabbed on to stabilize themselves.
The next second…
“Ahhhhhhh!!!!”
The wooden boat moved swiftly across the sea surface.
The people on the boat lost their footing and rolled a couple of times on the deck, they quickly grabbed the hull to steady themselves.
“Ahhh, f*ck!”
Yun Linhe couldn’t help but curse, but his tone was excited.
It was too f*cking exciting.
The other two also went from initial panic to their eyes shining.
Especially Yun Chendong.
A young man, as long as he wasn’t timid, would love this kind of excitement.
The orcas pushing the boat and swimming swiftly made him extremely happy.
Fun, fun~
The other orcas, who weren’t pushing the boat, saw this and also competed to try, especially hearing the screams from the people on the boat made it even more fun.
Yun Jiao: …
I asked you to work, but I didn’t expect you to treat the boat and the people on it as toys.
At this time, quite a few boats were already returning.
Everyone was leisurely rowing their boats. Those from the same village, when they met familiar faces, would greet each other and inquire about what they had caught that day.
“The luck was bad today, all we caught were small mixed fish.”
“Alas, us too. Those iron boats are better, they can go further, and they can use machine trawling nets to catch more fish than us wooden boats.”
“Who says not.” The tone was full of envy.
As they were talking, the sound of machinery rumbled.
In their Bailong Village, only two families had diesel-powered iron boats: the Village Chief’s family and Yun Dafu’s family.
Coincidentally, the iron boat that arrived belonged to the village’s richest man, Yun Dafu’s family.
At this moment, Yun Dafu and his wife slowed down their boat and greeted the people on the surrounding wooden boats with smug satisfaction.
“Oh, these iron boats are good in every way, but they consume a lot of oil. A trip out and back costs about four or five yuan in fuel costs.”
“But I must say, iron boats are much better than wooden boats. We go to farther sea areas to fish, where there are more fish schools. We even caught a bomb fish.”
“Look at this fish, how solid it is, it looks a lot like tuna. It’s a pity it’s not tuna, but with our current boat, we can easily catch a tuna if we encounter one. The main thing is that this boat is also fast…”
Yun Dafu and his wife were boasting non-stop, and the expressions on the faces of the people in the surrounding wooden boats were about to freeze.
How can this person be so annoying!
Yun Dafu didn’t care about their feelings at all; he greatly enjoyed the envious and jealous looks from everyone.
Yun Dafu: “If you ask me, you should all hurry up and buy an iron boat. Once the diesel engine starts, the boat runs, and you only need to control the direction, it’s not tiring at all.”
After saying that, he was about to increase the horsepower to show off.
“Ahhhhhh!!!”
A scream came from afar and approached, and everyone looked in that direction.
“Left, left, to the left! There’s a boat on the right that’s about to crash.”
Yun Linhe shouted.
Yun Jiao directed the orcas to push the boat a little to the left.
“Oh my goodness, slow down, slow down ahhhhhh!!!”
“Uncle, hello…”
Seeing familiar people, Yun Linhai and the others subconsciously greeted them.
However, their voices quickly stretched out.
Yun Linhai and their boat zipped away from the vicinity of the other boats.
“Slow down, we’re almost at the coast, don’t crash when you can’t brake!”
The wind carried the voices of Yun Linhai and the others into everyone’s ears.
At this moment, people on both the wooden boats and the iron boats were stunned.
“What, what was that that just passed by?”
Someone asked, their voice trembling.
“If I’m not mistaken, wasn’t that Yun Linhai and Yun Linhe?”
“And what is that behind them?”
“Is that still a wooden boat? Why is it faster than an iron boat?”
Yun Dafu, on the iron boat, turned green.
Damn it!
