The entire ocean is my fishing ground.

Chapter 13: The Maiden Voyage of the New Ship! Those bastards are green with envy!

The second day of owning the speedboat.

He bid farewell to the clandestine and inefficient fishing methods of the past.

Today's information has been updated (4/4)

[Intelligence 1 (Resource Category): A group of black sea bream, weighing approximately 70 catties, has gathered in the nearshore No. 4 reef area. The location is relatively far, and the fuel cost for a speedboat is not cost-effective.]

[Intelligence 2 (Resource): In nearshore waters area 2, there is a group of sea bass, weighing approximately 50 jin (25 catties). The meat is of excellent quality and suitable for restaurant supply.]

[Intelligence 3 (Daily Life): ...]

[Intelligence 4 (Daily Life): ...]

Today's intelligence is quite ordinary, with two resource-related reports: one pointing to sea bass and the other to black sea bream.

Lin Chen chose the sea bass directly.

The location of the black sea bream is too far, resulting in high fuel costs and poor cost-effectiveness.

Sea bass is located nearby and is a popular and affordable fish in the restaurant, making it a perfect choice for the first order in this new business model.

After a quick breakfast prepared by his mother, Lin Chen did not ride his tricycle as usual, but instead headed towards the dock.

At the pier early in the morning, many fishermen were already preparing their fishing gear, getting ready to go out to sea.

When they saw Lin Chen walk toward the brand-new, eye-catching speedboat, everyone stopped what they were doing, their eyes filled with envy, jealousy, and doubt.

"Hmph, what's so great about it? He just bought a beat-up old ship. Let's see how long he can be so smug."

"That's right. I heard that Zhang Meng's cousin has already threatened to blacklist him in town. He bought this boat, but he can't sell the fish he catches. I think it's just a decoration."

A few sarcastic remarks reached Lin Chen's ears.

Lin Chen ignored him.

He untied the rope, skillfully jumped onto the speedboat, and turned the key.

"boom--"

The roar of the engine instantly silenced the gossip.

The white speedboat sped off into the distance.

The fishermen who remained on the dock were all stunned.

fast.

That's incredibly fast.

The place that usually takes them more than half an hour to reach by their own dilapidated fishing boat, this speedboat probably won't take more than ten minutes.

The few people who were just making sarcastic remarks now fell silent, their eyes filled with even deeper jealousy.

The feeling of owning a speedboat can only be described with one word: awesome.

Lin Chen stood in the driver's seat, feeling the sea breeze blowing in his face.

He reached the No. 2 sea area in less than fifteen minutes, a distance that previously required more than an hour by small sampan.

Following the precise location provided by the system, he quickly found the group of sea bass.

A group of silvery-white shadows darted about in the clear seawater; their number was quite considerable.

Lin Chen dropped the anchor, picked up the fishing net, and cast it down with practiced ease.

In less than an hour, he caught all 50-plus kilograms of sea bass, each one lively and jumping around.

Seeing the full box of fish, Lin Chen didn't stop. He immediately started the speedboat and headed at full speed toward the town's dock.

Half an hour later, at Wanghai Town Wharf.

A brand-new white speedboat sped into the harbor and docked smoothly at an empty berth.

The dockworkers and ship owners unloading cargo all cast curious glances at the scene.

The town's docks are usually filled with heavy wooden fishing boats; it's rare to see such a beautiful private speedboat.

Under the curious gaze of the crowd, Lin Chen jumped off the boat, carried a full styrofoam box ashore, and then walked to his tricycle parked near the dock and put the box on it.

Five minutes later, at the Fisherman's Song Restaurant.

Su Jianming was checking yesterday's accounts in the kitchen when he heard a waiter say that Lin Chen had delivered another delivery. He put down his ledger and came out.

"Kobayashi, what's good today...?"

He stopped mid-sentence.

He looked at the box of lively sea bass at Lin Chen's feet, then glanced at Lin Chen's dry clothes, and a puzzled expression appeared on his face.

"Kobayashi, you...you didn't go out to sea today? Where did this fish come from?"

In his memory, fishermen always returned from the sea with a bit of water on them and a fishy smell.

But Lin Chen looked as clean as if he had just gone out for a stroll today.

"Just caught from the sea, Brother Su."

"Just caught?"

Su Jianming was even more confused. He glanced at the clock on the wall; it wasn't even 10 a.m. yet.

"Coming from Huangni Village, then fishing, then delivering to me... the timing doesn't match. Did you fly here?"

Lin Chen smiled, said nothing, and simply pointed in the direction of the dock.

Following the direction he pointed, Su Jianming walked to the restaurant entrance and looked towards the dock.

He spotted the conspicuous white speedboat parked at the berth at a glance.

He stood there stunned for a good ten seconds, then suddenly turned his head and stared intently at Lin Chen, his eyes filled with disbelief.

"You...you bought a speedboat?"

"Yes, I just bought it yesterday."

Lin Chen nodded.

Su Jianming gasped. He circled Lin Chen, looking him up and down as if he were meeting him for the first time. Finally, he gave a thumbs-up and exclaimed in sincere admiration:

"Smart. You're really smart, kid."

The doubt on his face disappeared, replaced by admiration.

"I was worried that with that old fox Zhang Tiejun issuing a blacklist, you'd be stuck in the village. But I never expected you to quietly get your own speedboat."

He slapped his thigh excitedly.

"With this thing, you can take the sea directly to the town to unload your cargo. Even if Zhang Meng sets up a net at the Huangni Village dock, he won't be able to stop you. Brilliant. Absolutely brilliant."

The way Su Jianming looks at Lin Chen has completely changed.

If before he only regarded Lin Chen as a lucky junior, now he sees Lin Chen as a shrewd businessman.

After selling the fish, Lin Chen declined Su Jianming's invitation to have tea together and rode his tricycle back to the town's dock.

In the afternoon, Lin Chen timed it perfectly and drove the speedboat to deliver some of the sea bass that had been set aside in the morning to the "Fresh Way" restaurant in the city.

The delivery, combining sea and land transport, was completed in just one and a half hours, twice as fast as the previous three-wheeled motorcycle delivery.

The day's revenue was quickly settled. After deducting fuel costs, the net profit from the payments to Yuge Restaurant and "Xianzhidao" was exactly 1,500 yuan.
