"It doesn't look like pirates. Pirates don't fly the national flag. Besides, this place is very close to the Panama Canal. If they are pirates, they shouldn't appear here."

Ye Yuan thought so in his heart.

At this time, the radio channel on the ship rang.

"Hello, friends on board the Royal Water, I am a traveling businessman from GB country. Please don't get me wrong. I have no hostility. I just want to ask if you need GB's unique cigars and rum?"

The radio sounded in less than standard English.

The so-called traveling merchants are merchants who usually look for passing ships and sell some goods in fixed sea areas.

After learning that the other party was a traveling businessman from GB, Ye Yuan became more interested. You must know that GB cigars and rum are both very famous. Now that you meet Ye Yuan, you will not miss it.

GB cigars are pure natural tobacco products rolled from raw tobacco leaves that have been dried, fermented and aged.

Experts who know about cigars all over the world agree that only the fertile red soil of GB can produce the best tobacco in the world, and the handmade cigars from GB are the best cigars in the world.

GB rum is a traditional drink of the GB people. It puts sugar cane shochu made from sugar cane honey into white oak barrels. After years of careful brewing, it produces a unique and unparalleled flavor. The taste has made it a favorite drink among GB people and has gained wide popularity in the international market.

Rum is a natural product, processed from sugar cane. The entire production process starts with the careful selection of raw materials, followed by the distillation of alcohol in production and the aging of sugarcane shochu, all with extremely strict controls.

The quality of rum is determined by the aging time, ranging from one year to several decades. The ones sold on the market are usually three-year-old and seven-year-old. Their alcohol content is 38 degrees and 40 degrees respectively. The heavy alcohol is removed during the production process, preserving the pleasant aroma of the wine.

Picking up the phone, Ye Yuan also said in English: "How to trade? Please keep your distance."

On the sea, any kind of situation can happen. You can't call the other party a traveling merchant. Ye Yuan believes that staying vigilant at all times is the law of survival at sea.

Apparently the other party was used to Ye Yuan's proposal. The fishing boat stopped about a mile away from Ye Yuan, and the two began to communicate via radio.

"We have good cigars and rum here. I believe that friends from far away China, you will definitely like it."

Don't ask why the other party knew that Ye Yuan and the others were from China, because the three big "Water Control Numbers" on the ship and the national flag on the ship said everything.

The two things the other party mentioned were both very popular with Ye Yuan. They could be purchased here, which also gave him an unexpected surprise.

After consulting the price "I need 100 boxes of cigars and 20 boxes of rum, how do I trade?"

Ye Yuan gave the quantity he wanted to buy.

"It's very simple, friends from far away, we will use the lifeboat to send the items you need. To show our sincerity, you can give the money to our crew, and then the items will be yours."

When the other party heard the amount Ye Yuan asked for, his tone became much more enthusiastic.

"no problem"

After speaking, Ye Yuan put down the intercom, left the cockpit and walked to the deck.

When Ye Yuan came to the side of the ship, because the two ships were relatively close, the other side's lifeboat quickly approached the "Water Regulator".

Ye Yuan handed the stack of U.S. dollars that he had prepared to the other party. After the other party finished counting, he delivered the goods purchased by Ye Yuan to Ye Yuan and then rowed back to his fishing boat.

Seeing that the transaction was completed, the other party waved to Ye Yuan, and then went to look for the next target.

Ye Yuan looked at several large boxes of cigars and rum with a smile on his lips.

Ye Yuan only spent 20,000 US dollars on these things. If he had purchased these in China, Ye Yuan believed that it would be impossible without 40,000 US dollars.

After a brief transaction, the fishing boat continued to set sail. Soon we arrived at the Panama Canal.

The speed of passing through the Panama Canal this time was much faster than when it came, because this time there was no need to submit various documents like the first time, so it saved Ye Yuan a lot of time.

After sailing out of the canal, this side is already the waters of the Pacific Ocean. The fishing boat did not stay too much in the canal and sailed directly towards China.

Now that we have arrived in the Pacific Ocean, the formal fishing work should begin.

Ye Yuan stood on the deck, using his senses to look for fish.

It can be said that this voyage is the longest voyage in Ye Yuan's history, but so far, no profit has been generated.

So Ye Yuan decided that during these days of returning to the voyage, he must haul a few nets of fish with relatively high economic value, otherwise he would really be sorry for the crew and his two months.

When the crew saw Ye Yuan staring at the sea, they all knew that the captain was serious. They had only seen Ye Yuan like this when they first boarded the fishing boat.

Nowadays, the crew rarely see Ye Yuan directing the fishing boat to trawl. Most of the time, it is because Hongbo is directing, but where can Yu Hongbo see any fish? It's just pure luck in directing.

But what they didn't know was that even though Ye Yuan was looking at the sea, he felt that he had penetrated an unknown distance into the sea.

Perhaps because it is too close to the entrance of the canal and ships of all sizes pass by too frequently, there are no large schools of fish here.

Ye Yuan did not order the crew to lower the trawl net. It was not until the "Yushui" sailed for 2 hours that Ye Yuan discovered a medium-sized fish school.

Ye Yuan turned around and saw the eyes looking at him one by one, and couldn't help but smile:

"What are you looking at? Get ready to launch the net."

After hearing Ye Yuan's order, everyone started to move, and the crew members seemed to have been given a shot of blood.

As the trawl net was dragged into the sea, everyone looked towards the sea as if they could see a large number of fish being caught by the trawl net. The reason for this came from the trust these people had in Ye Yuan.

The crew members believe that as long as the captain speaks, there will be fish.

After an hour of towing, Ye Yuan decisively shouted: "Close the net"

Ma Hua over-controlled the mixing machine, and the fishing net was slowly dragged towards the fishing boat. Hearing the sound of the mixing machine, Ma Hua said excitedly:

"If there is a big product, the possibility of breaking the Internet is very high."

The current crew members are no longer the novices they were at the beginning. They can tell how much fish the net has caught by the sound of the churning machine closing the net.

When the fishing net was lifted by the crane and just emerged from the sea, someone shouted: "Fuck! This! This!"

The cry was not made by one person, but by several people at the same time.

"The boss is a god. I think fishermen should first pay homage to the captain when they go to sea."

Ma Hua was joking on the side.

"Don't talk nonsense. If some old fishermen hear what you say, they will skin you."

Ye Yuan said something to Ma Hua angrily.
