He Fei fell asleep on the bench in the cabin, and Yang Xun was exercising outside.
"Thank you for your hard work last night, do you want to go back to the cabin to sleep, or go back to the fishing boat?" Chen Yuan said.
Yang Xun looked at the fishing boat: "Let's go back to the fishing boat and sleep peacefully on the fishing boat."
If this fishing boat is running, it will be a bit uncomfortable to sleep.
Zhou Sheng also got up, took out the induction cooker and boiled water, and went downstairs.
I have finished eating the sauerkraut and Chaotian pepper sauce, and there is still some lard.
Boil the noodles, throw some bean sprouts into it, and make some lard and soy sauce, and it's breakfast.
After dinner, Chen Yuan launched the fishing boat to take He Fei and others to the fishing boat, then turned the boat around and went to nearby islands and reefs to look for a suitable place to lower the net.
Look for the bottom of the sea suitable for setting your net, and also look for fish along the way.
Nansha is rich in fishery resources. When Chen Yuan releases his drone, he can often receive signals from groups of marine life.
In just one morning, Chen Yuan discovered three schools of fish worthy of netting.
It's just worth netting, but it's not a large school of fish. But with this density, it's pretty good.
There are more fish in Nansha than in Xisha.
However, the submarine topography of Nansha is more complex, with seamounts, coral reefs, and submarine canyons everywhere. Affected by these topography, upwelling currents can often be seen.
There are many fishing boats fishing in Nansha, and it is not particularly easy to find a good bottom seine area.
Chen Yuan and the others set out after seven in the morning, and it was not until after four in the afternoon that they found a place where they could launch their nets on the outskirts of an archipelago consisting of islands, reefs and shoals.
Many conditions must be met to sink the bottom fence.
The most important condition is that there are fish here, and the fish can be gathered through some means.
This has particularly high requirements on the topography of the seabed.
Just like Lin Xinhai's fishing boat, one net must ensure a fish catch of more than 30,000 yuan, so as not to lose money.
At this time, Lin Xinhai was chatting with the captain of Luo Laosi's fishing boat.
The fishing boat Lao No. 4 is also a fishing boat from Zhapo. It has been at sea for more than half a month. The Lao No. 4 has fished a total of 5 nets. After deducting the fuel cost and labor cost, it has made a small profit. But with this small profit, if we go back now,
Counting the fuel cost for the trip back, you may lose money.
"Brother Hai, how are you doing over there? How many networks have you downloaded?" Luo Laosi asked.
"Only two nets have been downloaded." Lin Xinhai said with a smile.
"How many did you get?"
"The cabin hasn't exploded yet."
Upon hearing this, Luo Laosi said: "Gan, it's okay. I don't know what happened here. I've been here for ten days and all I've found are small schools of fish. I haven't found any large schools of fish."
"Let's make a fish aggregator. There are many fish here in Nansha, so we can use a fish aggregator." Lin Xinhai said.
"No fish aggregator."
"I have a fish collector here. When I finish using it, I will leave the fish collector to you."
"Brother Hai is awesome."
While chatting, Chen Yuan contacted Lin Xinhai: "The location has been found."
"Where?"
Chen Yuan reported his position, and Lin Xinhai turned on all power and rushed towards Chen Yuan.
The distance was more than fifty nautical miles, and the Lixia arrived first.
The fish aggregator weighing more than 20 tons is on the Lixia.
The fish aggregator consists of several floats, ropes, and oyster shells numbered on the ropes.
First the two kayaks were hoisted down, then the floats were hoisted, and the ropes strung with oyster shells. The workers were busy...
Chen Yuan and his friends were on the fishing boat.
Zhou Sheng is now at the bottom of the sea. He is carrying a diving tank on his back and wearing a diving anti-stress suit. He has been diving underwater at a depth of more than 170 meters for dozens of minutes.
Chen Yuan drove the fishing boat and fish detector, and was always paying attention to Zhou Sheng's movements.
After a while, Zhou Sheng floated up and swam to the side of the boat.
Chen Yuan reached out and gave him a hand.
After boarding the ship, Zhou Sheng took out a piece of stuff and handed it to Chen Yuan before taking off his anti-stress suit.
Chen Yuan looked at the ceramic shard with barnacle shells attached to his hand: "Is there a sunken ship below?"
"It should be a sunken ship. I also saw rotten wood. Ancient sunken ship..." Zhou Sheng was very excited and said, "We are going to make a fortune."
"Getting rich is nothing." Chen Yuan rolled his eyes at Zhou Sheng: "It is illegal to salvage an ancient sunken ship from the bottom of the sea without permission."
"Let's salvage quietly." Zhou Sheng said, "I heard that antiques are very valuable. This is much higher than the profit from fishing."
"The highly profitable industry is basically written in the criminal law. Salvaging sunken ships is very punishable in my opinion." Chen Yuan is not interested in salvaging sunken ships on the seabed, but he is a little curious about the sunken ships on the seabed.
To put it bluntly, it’s not that Chen Yuan doesn’t have the ability to make a lot of money.
If this sunken ship is on the high seas or in foreign waters, it can be salvaged. But in domestic waters, private salvage is definitely not possible. If you fail, you will be trapped.
Zhou Sheng smiled: "I was just joking. I'm not used to you being so serious."
"Don't touch that thing."
"I know." Zhou Sheng shrugged and said, "I just observed that the scale of the sunken ship below is quite large. How much reward can you get if this is reported to the relevant departments?"
"Uh... Well, I don't know." Chen Yuan laughed: "At least there is a little red flower. How big is the scale of the shipwreck?"
"There is an uplift on the seabed, which is covered by seabed sand and gravel. It is quite large." Zhou Sheng said, "I have not done any research on these."
Chen Yuan held the ceramic shard in his hand. This thing is hundreds of years old. There are attachments on it and the color cannot be seen: "Did you find this on the surface of the seabed?"
"There are a lot of things like this down there. Do you want to go down and have a look together? Maybe we can pick up a few pieces of gold... We won't take anything else. If we find a gold ingot, it should be fine to keep it as a souvenir." Zhou Sheng hehe.
Smiling.
Chen Yuan started the fishing boat and moved towards the kayak: "Brother Guo, help us control the fishing boat. The two of us have to go out again."
"Okay." Guo Run responded.
Chen Yuan started the fishing boat and returned to the previous location. After explaining what Guo Run needed to pay attention to, he went back to get the diving suit.
They dived to a depth of more than 170 meters, less than 200 meters, and wore rubber diving suits. After Zhou Sheng inflated his cylinder, he looked at Chen Yuan...
Chen Yuan checked the equipment on his body, made an OK gesture, and then the two of them leaned into the water side by side and dived slowly to the bottom of the sea.
The water visibility is very high today.
Chen Yuan and Zhou Sheng didn't dive very fast. It took them seven or eight minutes to reach the bottom of the sea.
There are rocks, gravel, and some dead corals on the seabed.
The visibility on the seabed, which is more than 170 meters deep, is not very good. Fortunately, there is a large rock as a mark near the sunken ship. Zhou Sheng and Chen Yuan quickly found the sunken ship.
The shipwrecks in Hainan most likely date from the Ming Dynasty. Hundreds of years ago, the shipwrecks had already been covered with gravel, but there was a slight uplift in this area.
In the center of the bulge, there is a log covered with barnacles, which is most likely the mast of an ancient sunken ship.
