Reincarnated as a Fisherman and a Dad Chapter 107

"What about me? Are you not going to give your Mama food?" Maya asked in a playful tone.

She teased the twins. Of course, the twins also gave her mango. Just like Karlos, she found their small, dirty hands disgusting and sticky, yet she endured it because it was a sign of affection.

It didn't take long for dinner to arrive, which made Karlos eat another set of food, but he didn't mind it. Eating more was good for him since he spent a lot of energy every day.

This time, the parents fed the twins and made sure they didn't get dirty. They had already cleaned them and changed them into new clothes, and it would be terrible if they got dirty again.

That night, once the twins fell asleep, Maya and Karlos shaboinked in the bathroom...

.........

......

...

"I've been thinking about visiting the island."

"Since we don't have anything going on, let's visit it."

Karlos agreed to Brandon's plan. Their daily earnings had steadied at around 20,000 pesos, and they were already satisfied with it.

Their longline fishing was not particularly prosperous, but the profit they earned from trapping lobsters covered the hassle.

In their opinion, longline fishing was tiring but not worth it most of the time, especially when the catch was mediocre. However, the job had to be done, and they didn't want to stop longline fishing since they still earned money anyway, no matter how small. Perhaps they might catch expensive fish such as grouper or tuna.

After catching lobsters, they decided to visit the small island. There was a sandy beach at the northern part of the island, perfect for the boat to dock.

The tide was low, and the beach became wider. The boat landed safely without scraping the hull. The island had been visited by many boats before, so Karlos and Brandon knew they probably wouldn't find anything valuable there. They just wanted to visit the island out of curiosity and take a short break.

They explored the beach, with Brandon heading toward the rocky part of the island just a short walk away, while Karlos went toward the coconut trees to take shelter from the heat.

Earning 20,000 pesos per sail was definitely not bad, but Karlos couldn't help comparing it to the time when they earned six digits by catching salmon. The difference was quite huge.

After resting for a while, Karlos decided to explore the island as well. He went in the opposite direction from Brandon, following his instincts.

He walked leisurely, not expecting anything significant. This small island was not a virgin island, fishermen had already taken anything valuable from this place over many years.

Still, he might as well take a walk to satisfy his curiosity.

It hadn't even been a minute when he reached the shallow rocky reefs. The low tide made it possible for Karlos to step onto the reefs without his feet getting wet.

By the way, there were two types of reefs: rocky reefs and coral reefs. Rocky reefs are often found near shores and shallow waters, making them accessible.

He stretched and welcomed the shining sun. He looked around, and his eyes slightly trembled when he noticed a small pool of seawater.

"... You've got to be kidding me!" he exclaimed in disbelief.

He moved closer and knelt down. Sure enough, his eyes hadn't deceived him.

The pool was filled with abalones!

Abalones are often found in rocky reefs rich in seaweed, which they eat. They cling to rocks and crevices. Karlos couldn't believe his luck at finding a pool of water filled with abalones. Furthermore, the abalones were big, almost the size of his fist.

He decided to grab one to weigh it in his hand. As expected, he couldn't pull it off at all, no matter how hard he tried. These abalones clung tightly to the rocks. He needed a knife or a screwdriver to pry them off, and even then, it was a tough job.

He glanced at the waves moving back and forth. The low tide wouldn't last that long, and he wasn't sure if these reefs would be swallowed by the sea later. He had to move fast before the tide returned.

Without hesitation, he went back to the beach to look for Brandon.

"Brandon! I found a huge catch!" His voice was filled with excitement.

"Where?"

Brandon had just finished taking a shit and was surprised that Karlos found something interesting on this small island. Yes, the only reason he wanted to visit the island was to take a shit. Everything else he said was just an excuse.

Karlos went to the boat and looked for a knife and a flat screwdriver. Fortunately, they were there. He handed the knife to Brandon.

"I found abalones at the reefs."

"Really!?" Brandon became excited. He didn't know the exact price of abalones, but based on their reputation, they were definitely not cheap. At the very least, they were twice or three times as expensive as the fish they usually caught.

With buckets, a knife, and a screwdriver, the two quickly went to the reefs, full of anticipation.

Brandon was stunned when he saw a pool completely filled with big abalones. Money. This whole pool was filled with money, pure profit in his eyes.

The two men laughed loudly and knelt down to pry off the abalones. It took some strength to remove them, but it didn't matter. Their adrenaline surged. For hard-working men like them, strength was expendable energy.

If they had to tire themselves just to catch the abalones, it was absolutely worth it without question.

While meticulously collecting abalones, the two chatted happily, their hands moving nonstop. They joked and grinned as they slowly filled the buckets.

"Did you contact your wife?"

"I already texted Mrs. Wanda. She'll forward the message to Maya."

"I have no idea who Wanda is."

"She's the caretaker of the villa."

"I still haven't seen your place, by the way. When will you invite us?"

"My kids' birthdays are coming up. You guys are invited. You're going to be a godfather, so be prepared."

"You sure about that?"

"Yeah."

"Alright." Brandon had no problem becoming a godfather. All he had to do was give the kids money on Children's Blessed Day every year, which was easy.

"You told me you bought your parents a television."

"They were so happy. Thank you, Karlos."

"Nah, you didn't have to thank me."

They gradually filled two buckets of abalones, probably weighing around 70 kilograms, an impressive haul. It was so heavy that even Karlos grunted when he tried to carry it.
