Chapter 618 - 618 605 Abundant Resources
618: Chapter 605: Abundant Resources 618: Chapter 605: Abundant Resources After grappling with that massive Dog Tooth Golden Spear Tuna, Yue Feng was completely exhausted.
With the experience of excruciating muscle soreness from the day before, Yue Feng became much more cautious.
He handed the rod over to Brother Gu and his team, conscientiously sat back to watch the action, occasionally massaging his sore areas, drinking enough water, and resting to slowly regain his strength.
In the next hour or so, while no large fish were caught, Brother Gu and his team did manage to catch quite a few smaller fish ranging from three to less than ten pounds, even the kids managed to hook one using the Slow Shaking Iron Plate.
Before he knew it, the sun was setting, and it was the end of the second day of fishing.
Yue Feng greeted his viewers in the live streaming room, ended the broadcast, and started the boat back to base.
The more than 100-pound Dog Tooth Golden Spear Tuna that Yue Feng caught created quite a stir when they got back to the island.
Not only did their own crew come over to marvel at it, but Indigenous fishermen from other boats that returned around the same time came over after hearing the news, and the atmosphere was good since Gu Qingtian knew them well.
Once the crowd dispersed, Gu Qingtian said, “Tsk tsk, Yue really did China proud today!
Despite these local fishermen seeming quite nice, they actually find it hard to accept us Chinese at heart!
They’ve fished all their lives and never seen such a large Dog Tooth Golden Spear Tuna!
You wouldn’t believe it, but just now they even asked if I wanted to sell it, offering to introduce me to a buyer to earn some quick money!
Do we look like we need that small change?”
Upon hearing there was money to be made, Yue Feng’s first instinct was to sell.
Why not sell it?
But then he quickly reconsidered and suppressed the thought.
After all, they were using someone else’s equipment, on someone else’s boat, and it was their help that had landed the fish.
Catching this fish had been a team effort, and besides, Yue Feng wasn’t in need of money at the moment.
“Hehe, we definitely won’t sell it!
But it’s so big, we can’t possibly eat it all!
Brother Gu, what should we do with this fish?” Yue Feng asked.
“Don’t worry, there’s an ice hold on the yacht, we can keep the fish fresh!
It’s indeed rare to catch such a big fish, but even if we sold it, it wouldn’t fetch much.
It’s better for us to just enjoy it ourselves!
The meat of this Dog Tooth Golden Spear Tuna is right between that of Yellowfin and Bluefin Tuna; it really is a high-end seafood item from the sea!
Let’s have a beach seafood BBQ tonight and properly celebrate!”
“Alright, that’s settled then!
But do we have enough ingredients?
We can’t just eat grilled fish,” Yue Feng said, feeling saliva pool under his tongue at the mention of food.
“Don’t worry, we’ve got plenty of ingredients!
Just you wait till we get back and take a look in the kitchen!
It’s the perfect time for clam digging at low tide at four this afternoon.
I’ve had the staff stay behind to prepare fresh ingredients, there’s plenty of seafood here, definitely enough for us all!”
…
When Yue Feng returned to the base, Gu Qingtian took him around the kitchen, and indeed, as he had said, the seafood they’d gathered was plentiful.
Conch as big as bowls, various types of turban shells, exceptionally fatty blue crabs the size of fists, and lively lobsters over a pound each.
What surprised Yue Feng the most was a large bucket of oysters, each about the size of a fist.
Yue Feng casually pried one open with a tool; the oyster meat was as big as a duck egg, white and tender, making anyone’s mouth water and stomach growl with hunger.
“Where did you get such large oysters?
Back in China, they’d be worth a fortune!” Yue Feng couldn’t help but say.
Gu Qingtian casually glanced over and smirked, “These are plenty over here.
Just by the docks there’s a rocky reef, take a small shovel, and you’d gather this much in half an hour!
There are even more barnacles further out, but they’re a bit risky to collect so we didn’t bother.
Safety first when you’re out having fun!”
“You have more?
Then bring me along to gather some more, will you?
There are so many of us, one bucket won’t be enough!” Yue Feng suggested.
Gu Qingtian waved his hand grandly, “We can’t help much in the kitchen anyway, come on, get your tools, put on your boots, I’ll take you oyster picking!”
Yue Feng nodded, called over Wawa and Su Cheng, and the four of them changed their shoes, grabbed their tools, and headed straight for the rocky reefs Gu Qingtian had mentioned.
Before they even reached the reefs, Yue Feng had already spotted oysters on the stones along the shore.
These high-quality oysters, massive in size, were ignored like trash here, piling up densely layer upon layer on some stones.
“There’s a lot here, why don’t we just start digging?” Yue Feng suggested.
Brother Gu snorted, “We’re barely there!
There’s no safe footing, it’s not safe!
We’re almost there, follow me!”
By the time the four of them reached the spot Gu Qingtian had described, they were completely stunned by the scene before them.
Huge oysters were attached one after another on the half-meter-high rock walls, looking like the stones themselves were made of packed oysters due to their dense attachment.
Brother Gu was right, the oysters here were noticeably larger and it was especially easy to pry them off lower down.
“Holy shit!
There are so many!
Just take the biggest and best, leave the small ones!
Let’s get started, but watch out for safety!” Yue Feng yelled, charging forward with his tools.
In less than half an hour, each person had filled their bucket, and the rocky cliffs hadn’t seemed to diminish at all.
…
By the time Yue Feng and his friends brought the oysters back to where they were staying, the courtyard was nearly set up,
The massive barbecue stove was already lit, and a few foldable tables loaded with ingredients placed not far away, where the chef and several servers were making final preparations,
Especially the large Dog Tooth Tuna Yue Feng had caught, the highest quality part of the fish right behind the head was already prepped by the chef, waiting for further processing.
Without a doubt, the sashimi, which Yue Feng really liked, was surely to have several plates arranged, as for the rest, fried or sautéed, it would be up to the chef’s performance.
…
As dusk fell, the lights in the courtyard were turned on, and the scent of the barbecue wafted through the crowd, with a large amount of beer and beverages set out on the outdoor tables, everyone shifted into party mode.
After a whole day of activity on the boat, Yue Feng was already exhausted, and after a few bottles of chilled beer, he stretched lazily, yawning inappropriately.
“Getting tired?” Gu Qingtian asked casually.
Yue Feng nodded, “Yeah, I’m still not used to such intense fishing, my body is a bit worn out!
Once my butt hits the chair, I just don’t want to get up!”
“That’s normal!
Some friends from China who’ve come to play normally just lay flat once we get back the first day!
Your physical fitness is actually really great!
We’ll take a break tomorrow during the day, recharge, and I’ll take you night fishing in the evening!” Gu Qingtian said offhandedly.
“Night fishing?
How is it different from daytime?” Yue Feng asked curiously.
