My Deep-sea Fishery

After sailing out of Tsing Lung Bend Wharf, the two ships started to go side by side.

Most of the people on the two ships were acquaintances.

Those who like to join in the fun on weekdays simply lay on the railing and chatted loudly with each other.

Among them, Fang Youqun wanted to jump over the railing, but was immediately scolded by Chen Qingsheng.

Although there seems to be a little space outside the railing of the fishing boat, as long as you are careful, you will not fall down.

In fact, the fishing boat shakes a lot during driving, and if you are not careful, you may fall into the sea.

Don't look at the usual time when Xiang Yang led the crew to go fishing, so many people jumped into the water and nothing happened.

Ocean-going fishing boats are very noisy because of the large number of machines on board.

The sound of a person falling into the water from a boat cannot be heard by normal people at all.

And once a person falls into the water, and the people on board do not find it, the chance of survival is infinitely close to zero.

Xiang Yang looked at it with a smile. In fact, this is a very new ocean-going fishing boat, with surveillance cameras installed all around, and a sonar detection system that is always on.

If a person falls off the boat, the people in the cab will definitely be able to spot it immediately, but I won't say anything about it.

"call--"

Xiang Yang squinted his eyes, the wind is a bit strong today, and the waves are also high, but it is the north wind blowing from the mainland, not the weather when the storm is coming.

In fact, even if it is a storm, Xiang Yang is not afraid.

If the people in the Meteorological Bureau can't even predict a storm that can overturn a thousand-ton ocean-going fishing boat, then they should all be laid off.

"Captain, the ocean current is moving south, should we follow the ocean current?" Chen Qingsheng asked.

"Of course." The direction of ocean currents often has a lot of microorganisms, which means a lot of fish.

On the other side, He Mingde's boat has already started casting nets.

In order to avoid accidents, Xu put down the pilot's cab and widened the distance between the two fishing boats.

"Captain, should we also try casting a net?" Chen Qingsheng asked.

Xiang Yang lowered his head and glanced under the water, and saw that there were a lot of sea fish swimming under the water, so he nodded and said: "Anyway, we are moving forward, so let's just drag the net forward."

Chen Qingsheng hurriedly conveyed Xiang Yang's instructions.

Soon, the winch on the ship started to operate, and an extra-large trawl net was lowered to the bottom of the sea, and under the action of the tide, it automatically spread out into an umbrella shape.

The fishing boat headed south at a constant speed of seven or eight knots.

Xiang Yang didn't delay long before ordering Chen Qingsheng to collect the net.

Chen Qingsheng didn't care at first when a small bag of catch was dragged out of the sea.

It is the consensus of fishermen that there are no fish in the coastal waters. In such shallow water areas, it is difficult to catch fish.

As a result, after Chen Qingsheng saw the fish in the net bag clearly, he immediately froze.

"Wrasse, Captain, it's a wrasse. We caught a wrasse, and there is a one-meter-long wrasse." Chen Qingsheng said happily.

Xiang Yang smiled. Although this was not what Xiang Yang expected, it was not surprising.

Wrasses are mainly distributed between the tropics and subtropics, and like to live in shallow waters with rocks or corals.

"Bring this fish to the live water tank to raise it properly, and the rest of the catch will be dealt with quickly." Xiang Yang said with a smile.

A long wrasse is an unexpected surprise, at least this time it comes out, so you don’t have to worry about not being able to earn back the fuel fee.

The price of wrasse has been rising every year in recent years.

Although there are very mature wrasse farming methods in Liaogang, Zhoushan, Shanwei and other places, this kind of fish has extremely high requirements on water quality and environment, so the cost of breeding is huge, and the farming wrasse that appears on the market The price is more than a hundred dollars a catty.

As for wild ones, the price is naturally more expensive.

Of course, the wrasse is also worthy of its worth.

The wild wrasse is delicious and the meat is delicate, comparable to chicken tenderloin. It really melts in your mouth. Although it is expensive, the market is still in short supply.

The one that Xiang Yang caught was more than one meter long and weighed forty catties, so it was a good start.

Continue sailing south.

The temperature began to rise gradually, but the wind and waves were not small at all.

Xiang Yang let the crew rest for a while, and did not immediately order to cast the second net.

Strictly speaking, this place still belongs to the offshore area, and it has not even left Qinglong Bend on the map.

Even if there are more wrasses below, Xiang Yang is not going to cast a second net here.

"Xiao Yang." He Mingde shouted loudly while standing on the deck.

"Uncle?" Xiang Yang asked suspiciously, "Is there something wrong?"

"Today's wind and waves are a bit strong, and our boat is small. Next, we will go west and drive along the coast. We will not accompany you and continue south." He Mingde shouted.

This is the difference between a small boat and a big boat.

Most of the time, small boats do not dare to go to the far sea knowing that they will not be able to catch too much fish in the near sea. Wind and waves, fresh water reserves, etc., are all restricting factors.

"Okay." Xiang Yang nodded with a smile, "Then I'll go east, to the high seas."

Not long after driving east, Xiang Yang found that the big head and the second head were following behind.

This is a very strange thing.

The Qinglong Bend is so big that Xiang Yang still doesn't understand why the two humpback whales can accurately spot his boat every time he goes out to sea.

Walking eastward, the color of the sea surface gradually becomes darker and darker, which means that the sea water where Xiang Yang is now is relatively deep.

Xiang Yang liked such a deep water area, so he ordered Chen Qingsheng to cast the net and continue to drag the net forward.

It took more than three hours to collect the net.

When the net was pulled up, there was still only a very poor small bag of catches, which added up to about two thousand catties, but most of them were octopus and squid, the two least valuable brothers. Among the remaining fish, that brother fish accounted for the majority. Portion, horsehead fish was a small portion.

In addition, there are several strange looking fish.

Most of the fishermen on the boat had never seen this fish, and they were all very curious. They used their harpoons to push it away, and then dared not approach it.

"Damn it, this fish looks so ugly." Fang Youqun said in disgust.

"Indeed." The people around agreed: "This face is comparable to monkfish."

I saw those few fish, just like enlarged and shortened loaches, and their bodies were like enlarged versions of loaches. The fish mouths were very large, and there were a row of very sharp and sharp teeth in the mouth.

Its teeth, very similar to those of monkfish, are ridiculously long and completely out of proportion to its body, so that it can't even close its mouth, or as long as it closes its mouth, it will stab itself with its teeth.

The most amazing thing is that its teeth are all transparent, just like crystal pillars.

"This." Xiang Yang frowned, "This should be a viper fish."

"Viper fish?" Fang Youqun has never heard of this name, and he doesn't care about the name, he only cares about two things, "Is this Viper fish delicious? How about the price?"
