Chapter 1910: Chapter 902: Appetizer (Part 2)

There were beautiful marine creatures, and there were ugly ones. Some looked quite terrifying from afar, making people hesitant to approach, while others appeared lovely but scared the well-experienced The Fifth Young Master Guo to keep even farther away.

A wandering sea turtle, probably having never seen people in shallow waters, was unwittingly treated as a treasure by Xiaohe and the group, and they brought it aboard the yacht.

They didn’t recognize most of the things. The Fifth Young Master Guo could still name some of the fish. As for the others, they barely recognized any fish, and even when they thought they did, they were definitely wrong about the names.

A small, easily recognizable seahorse was caught, though they didn’t know what they intended to do with it—which shows that fame sometimes isn’t necessarily a good thing.

They couldn’t help it; this group didn’t know much to begin with, and even the ones they recognized couldn’t be caught. Without understanding, they didn’t dare to approach anything, so they only dared to bully what they recognized, and it had to be something easy to bully.

Yan Fei just sat on the yacht, watching them play—he found it annoying how slow these guys were, swimming with their oxygen tanks and flippers. He might as well wait on the yacht.

The fish he caught was called a Leopard coral trout, which looked strikingly red from afar but not as impressive up close. Nonetheless, its fiery red color was pleasing. Unfortunately, the captain informed Yan Fei that the yacht didn’t have suitable conditions to keep it until they returned home, suggesting he catch another one on the way back.

Yan Fei was just saying; his ocean had plenty of dinosaur monsters all around. It would be strange if he genuinely cherished just one fish.

Besides, if he really wanted some nice fish to take home, he could wait for the upcoming ship from Hainan to arrive—a large fishing vessel, according to Xiaohe.

Yan Fei gazed at the sea, pondering about the stranded warship’s exact location.

He had only heard about it, flew south but didn’t pay attention, and forgot about it. Now that they were here, he could consider adding more scrap metal to his ranch for the workers to make tools.

“Actually, these islands have quite a bit of development potential. If someone is willing to invest in tourism, and as long as they’re careful with their territory, they could make a fortune. Even just setting up a supply point for fishing wouldn’t be bad.”

Yan Fei rolled his eyes. What the captain said was nonsense.

Being careful with territory, is that something investment alone can resolve? Besides, being so far away, anything transported from Hainan would cost as much as meat.

Well, except for himself, who wouldn’t need to spend a dime on transportation and could just fly over.

But even if he invested, if someone around got provocative, he couldn’t hold back. With disappearances happening every day in the area, who would dare to visit for tourism? By the time it’s built, it’d just be him and his wife having fun here.

At dinner, the Leopard coral trout became a meal. If Xiaoning hadn’t released the sea turtle back into the ocean out of compassion, it would have faced an uncertain fate as well.

After dinner, they played around for a bit. When everyone went to sleep, the captain couldn’t rest. He started the yacht, heading for the rendezvous point.

After the yacht sailed for a bit, Yan Fei entered the dinosaur world, informed his wife, and flew off in the general direction of 30 degrees southeast from the yacht.

The expedition team had already set off. By the time the fishing boat arrived here the next day, those expedition ships should have reached near the destination. They shouldn’t turn back just because of a minor incident—since the fish were already in the net, he might as well go have an appetizer.

It wasn’t hard to find. Knowing the approximate location and the distance was less than an hour’s journey.

After a few circles nearby, he saw the target, luck on his side. A small armed boat was transporting supplies to the warship—secretly supplying it since last year’s ‘stranding.’

…

The people on the armed boat were diligently moving supplies, with quite a few cheerfully cheering on those stationed on the ‘stranded ship.’

A small leader-like figure was standing on the warship, shouting to those below, “Men, give it all you’ve got! Once we’re done, let’s head ashore for a bonfire party and head back by morning!”

“Laoda is truly reliable, working with Laoda really gets us going!” A group below, hearing the leader’s words, immediately rushed to chime in with enthusiasm.

“Exactly, listening to Laoda makes even the moon feel fuller!”

The blatant flattery made many chuckle. Hearing one of the voices, they couldn’t help but look up: Damn, it’s true! It really does feel like the moon is brighter, a bit different than just now!

…

Early the next day, Xiaohe knocked on each door, “Xiao Jian, Brother Le, Brother Fei, you all up yet? Get up quick; today we start the formal operations!”

Yan Fei opened the door and entered the dining room to find his excited little buddies, surprisingly up early and already ready to eat breakfast.

“Brother Fei’s here; you’re a bit late today!” Old Cui greeted him with a cheerful grin.

Yan Fei chuckled, “No worries, the rendezvous ship hasn’t arrived yet, no rush.”

“I’ve already contacted them, they’re almost here,” Xiaohe said, waving his chopsticks. “Xiaoning, remember, when something happens, just make sure to hold onto the camera, don’t run around aimlessly.”

Xiaoning waved his hand, “Don’t worry, now the family knows we’ve come out here!”

…

Everyone acted as if they were planning a military operation. Yan Fei couldn’t help but internally chuckle, guessing their plans might not even come into play!

Last night, after quietly taking away two vessels linked together, big and small, everything was effortless. Even the crew on the ships weren’t spared; they were directly taken to an uninhabited island in the dinosaur world!

Half an hour back, seeing nothing happened with the phone still in the room, he re-entered the dinosaur world.

Time spent with his wife went by in a flash, so much so that he barely slept at night.

So, after breakfast, while Xiaohe and the others busied themselves contacting people for the rendezvous, Yan Fei, as usual, continued sunbathing.

Even when Xiaoning approached with an umbrella in the early morning, seeing him, she couldn’t help but mutter, “What unfairness, a big grown man, tanning for days and still not getting darker, where’s the justice?”

After muttering, she quickly lowered her head to check to ensure the umbrella was adequately covering her.

Initially, everyone pretended to sunbathe, but after a few days, those who applied sunscreen and sunblock gradually changed color, while Yan Fei, who did nothing and basked the longest, remained unchanged.

The comparison made everyone feel a bit cheated. If they continued under Boss Yan’s influence for a few more days, they’d return home as authentic fishermen, while Boss Yan would still be Boss Yan. What a rip-off!

Soon, no one joined him in sunbathing. Not only did they avoid it, but now even strolling on deck required full clothing to avoid sun exposure. People like Xiaoning, more afraid of tanning, opted for an umbrella as a regular accessory.

The rendezvous ship didn’t keep them waiting long. When the sun started to intensify, a reasonably sized fishing boat arrived near the yacht. The two ships didn’t linger for greetings, just started sailing towards the southeast as per the planned route.

Xiaohe enthusiastically chatted over the yacht’s communication tools with the other side. They were part of a real organization, collectively pooling money for the fishing boat trip. Unlike Yan Fei’s group, theirs was clearly just for fun—a not very cautious kind of fun in Yan Fei’s eyes.

However, they weren’t completely foolish, having now established contacts. Yan Fei overheard that Wen Le reached out to domestic rescue teams, while The Fifth Young Master Guo contacted business partners here as a backup plan, just in case help was needed.

Yan Fei didn’t need any, not only for himself but he estimated his companions’ contacts wouldn’t be needed either.

The big fishing boat led, with the small yacht trailing, continuing across the vast ocean…
