Now reading: Chapter 831 - 794: Newbie Luck Off the Charts from Gasp! She's a Time Traveler Using Modern Tech to Improve Ancient Life, a Romance novel by Bamboo Lin.

Baye Feng gets seasick, which made Lin Wanwan a bit distressed. He was supposed to be her navy commander, planning to sail across the ocean to the Southern territories.

"How is Brother Baye? Is the seasickness severe?" Lin ngbo asked Lin Wanwan while handling the fishing nets.

Behind her, Baye Feng hadn’t co out, apparently given so dicine and arranged to rest in the cabin.

Seasickness is an extrely uncomfortable experience, one that only those who’ve been through it can understand.

"He tried to act tough and said he’s fine, but as soon as he went in, he rushed to the window to feed the fish." Lin Wanwan shook her head and sighed.

"He’s from the Western Regions, it’s normal for him not to be used to the sea. After going out to sea a few tis, he’ll be fine." Lin ngbo could see that Lin Wanwan valued Baye Feng highly, so he comforted her.

"I hope so," Lin Wanwan said.

"It’s no big deal, even ng Xing got seasick the first ti on the boat, and now he’s fully adapted to life at sea," added Lin ngjin from the side.

Lin ngxing, hearing himself ntioned, chid in: "Yes, when I went to sea at ten years old, I was indeed very seasick, but I got used to it after a few days. Tomorrow, let’s have Brother Baye try going out to sea again with us."

"No need tomorrow, once spring cos and you go deep-sea fishing, take him out for a try. A few days at sea should show whether he can adapt," Lin Wanwan had already thought of a strategy.

If Baye cannot overco his seasickness, then they will have to find another suitable person for the future endeavors in the Southern Ocean.

Having finished discussing Baye Feng, Lin Wanwan’s attention returned to the ocean.

"How’s the catch this ti?" Lin Wanwan stepped forward to examine the recently raised net.

"Not great, just so small shrimp, not worth much," Lin ngjin glanced over.

"Wan Niang, why not let you try the second net? As a novice, you might have good luck," Lin ngbo suggested.

Lin Wanwan eagerly said, "Really? Okay, then."

Compared to fishing for half a day with no bite, seeing a net full of fish is much more cheerful.

The second net, said to be handled by Lin Wanwan, certainly wouldn’t be pulled in by her alone, as she wasn’t a real fisherman after all.

Lin ngbo and Lin ngjin stood by her side, helping to slowly drag the fishing net onto the deck.

"This net feels very light, seems like there’s not much catch," Lin ngjin sighed, the beginner’s luck wasn’t there.

"Let’s pay homage to the Sea Dragon King later, change our luck, and try casting the net in a different place," Lin ngxing was saying when he suddenly shouted, "Such a big yellow croaker! How co such a big fish is in such a light net!"

As soon as the catch surfaced, everyone saw it in its entirety and was collectively astonished. Lin ngjin was even startled by Lin ngxing’s shout, almost letting the net slip back into the water.

"Quick, quick, quick! Pull it up!" Everyone was excited, and at the sa ti felt the net suddenly beco much heavier, finding it hard to pull.

The over one-ter-long yellow croaker was struggling desperately, with formidable strength.

"Can’t pull it up, need another person!" Lin ngjin shouted.

Lin Wanwan quietly applied so strength again, careful not to be too obvious.

The reason everyone initially felt the net was light was because Lin Wanwan, inexperienced, had directly used her strength to pull.

With her body evolved after passing through the Space-Ti Gate, she had no problem at all pulling a fish weighing over a hundred jin.

Upon hearing the conversation between Lin ngjin and Lin ngxing and seeing the big fish, she suddenly realized and imdiately eased up, inadvertently putting the others pulling with her at a disadvantage.

Lin ngbo had already co over to help with the pulling, veins bulging on his forehead, putting all his strength into it.

This yellow croaker, estimated to weigh at least 50 kilograms, had much greater strength in the water, far beyond a re 50 kilograms. Normally, it would take two or three adult n working together to pull it out of the sea.

"Beginner’s luck is real, Wan Niang, this fish can sell for quite a bit," Lin ngjin excitedly told Lin Wanwan.

Finally, after everyone put in trendous effort, the net was pulled up.

Watching the huge yellow croaker thrash its tail on the deck, everyone was extrely delighted.

Liu Rushi couldn’t help but praise, "Madam, you’re amazing!"

"Oh, not really, just luck," Lin Wanwan modestly replied.

The yellow croaker, also known as the Golden Cod, has its most valuable part in its swim bladder, which is a rare tonic and a remarkable redy for stopping bleeding and replenishing blood.

In ancient coastal households, it was customary to prepare a golden cod fish roe to cope with postpartum hemorrhage.

Before being listed as a protected species, the selling price of this fish repeatedly reached new highs. A yellow croaker of over 50 kilograms like the current one could fetch at least three million on the modern black market.

Of course, Lin Wanwan wouldn’t do such a thing; delivering herself to drink tea for three million would be crazy.

"Don’t take this fish to the dock to sell, I like it, quickly keep it alive, then bring it to my ho, you all can find Yun Shang to handle the money issues."

"This is your catch, it’s yours by right, why discuss money with us?" Lin ngbo and the others quickly expressed refusal.

"We went fishing together, of course, we should share equally. How can it all go to ? No need to decline, even family keeps clear accounts. Once ashore, I’ll have Yun Shang discuss with you."

"Well... okay then," Lin ngbo and the others didn’t insist further.

By tradition, the catch from their fishing trips is not only shared among themselves but also a portion is given to the clan, since the boat is communal, gifted by Lin Wanwan.

Lin Wanwan wanted the yellow croaker not to harvest its swim bladder.

If she wanted the golden cod fish roe, she could buy it at the docks and workshops of the Great Tang. The neighboring fishern knew she liked swim bladders and often brought them to her.

As long as Lin Wanwan wasn’t present when the fish was caught and killed, she didn’t mind enjoying it. She couldn’t possibly impose modern animal protection laws across ti and space into the Great Tang.

Great Tang fishern found it hard enough to sustain themselves; who would care about the fish’s life or death?

Besides, with the fishery resources in the Great Tang and the fishern’s low-efficiency fishing techniques, these fish could never be entirely caught.

Moreover, the fishern instinctively followed the rules of letting small fish go, weaving nets with large shes, avoiding exhausting the waters.

For fish already turned into swim bladders, Lin Wanwan could accept it, but for those she personally caught, she couldn’t stand by and watch them die; that felt too sinful.

She planned to bring it to the modern era and release it into the ocean on a dark and windy night, adding energy to the Space-Ti Gate.

This net, having a yellow croaker, was already a significant gain. The remaining small fish and shrimp didn’t interest anyone; the smallest ones were thrown back to the sea, and the rest were casually collected into a bucket.

The yellow croaker’s presence ignited everyone’s enthusiasm.

Lin ngjin quickly went to start the boat, change locations, and cast the net in hopes of a better catch afterward.
