"No, it's only midmorning. I've only found a few Mud Crabs and some snails, and none of them are very big." Lin Gongshang opened the lid to show him, looking somewhat dejected. "Didn't you go out to take on a private job? Why are you back so soon?"
"I finished it."
"It's only been a few days, and you're done already?" Lin Gongshang asked. "How do they calculate the pay for such a short job?"
"Five hundred a day, paid daily."
Lin Gongshang said, "That income isn't very high, is it?"
"It's alright."
On the surface, he had only received a thousand in wages. In reality, he had gotten a twenty-thousand-yuan bonus, obtained information about a ship, and earned the friendship of the Qianyong City Maritime Shipping Public Security Bureau. No matter how he calculated it, he had not lost out on this deal.
Lin Qiyan had been listening to them talk and could no longer keep filming. Since he had gathered about enough footage anyway, he simply shut off the camera and came over to chat. "Lu Ao, has your friend gone back? Song Zhou."
Lu Ao looked at him. "Hm?"
Lin Qiyan hurriedly raised his hands. "I was just asking. Someone was asking us about you this morning."
Lu Ao asked, "Who?"
"Manager Shen from the Jiacheng Grand Hotel." Lin Gongshang said from beside them, "He suddenly went to ask Zhang Ge about you this morning. He wouldn't say what it was about, only asked where you were. Zhang Ge didn't tell him."
"Yeah, Zhang Ge told us too. He said we should be careful and not reveal any information about you."
Lu Ao pondered for a while. "Why was he looking for me?"
"Who knows? Maybe he wants to order fish from you again?"
Lin Qiyan disagreed.
