At noon there is tuna, steamed fish, and stone fish soup.
When raw marinated tuna meets boiling hot rice, just the heat of the rice stimulates the aroma of tuna oil.
"This tuna meat is too tender." Chen Xin also ate tuna for the first time. Although this tuna is not big, it is rich in oil and is considered the best among yellowfin tuna.
"It's delicious." Chen Yuan looked at Chen Xin and said with a smile.
"It tastes very special," said Chen Xin. When I ate it for the first time, I couldn't say how good it tasted, but the texture was completely different from what I expected.
For mainlanders who rarely eat sashimi, this is the first time they eat tuna sashimi and they don’t find it unpalatable, which is already a high praise.
Chen Yuan served stone fish soup and fish meat to Yan Xiaoxi and He Huan, and said, "This fish is said to be good for beauty."
"Really?" Chen Xin stood up, and after Chen Yuan put down the spoon, he filled himself a large bowl.
"It is said that it is." Chen Yuan shrugged.
Zhou Sheng looked at his sister: "You should also eat more."
Zhou Lan also served a large bowl, ate it, and said, "The meat of the stone fish is so tender."
This thing is delicious, but also expensive. The wholesale price can reach hundreds of yuan per catty. If it is a live stone fish, it will be even more expensive.
Had a meal.
Chen Yuan cleaned up the kitchen and looked at Yan Xiaoxi: "Zhou Sheng and I are going to the fishing boat to help. You can arrange the activities yourself."
"good."
Chen Yuan gave the car keys to Yan Xiaoxi and looked at Zhou Sheng who was playing with the cat: "Let's go."
"This big orange has grown so fat now." Zhou Sheng smiled and followed Chen Yuan downstairs.
Entering the elevator, Chen Yuan yawned. He and Yan Xiaoxi came back from a walk last night. They tossed and turned in bed very late before going to bed. Now they feel a little lack of energy.
"Do you have any ideas for a new fishing boat?" Zhou Sheng asked.
"If you want to buy one, you must buy a fully functional fishing boat." Chen Yuan said: "The length of the fishing boat should not be less than 14 meters, the width of the boat should be more than 3.8 meters, and the full load displacement should be more than 10 tons... It must have a chilled cabin.
The chilled cabin must be able to store more than 2 tons of fish. There is also the speed, the fastest speed must be more than 35 knots, the fuel tank must be large, and the endurance of the fastest speed must be about 500 nautical miles. And if it is a professional fishing boat,
It can’t be a trolling boat. If these conditions are met and there is an existing boat, buy it.”
Zhou Sheng smiled and made an OK gesture.
These are the basic configurations Chen Yuan mentioned. Without these configurations, it would not be as good as their current Shengyuan.
Shengyuan, 13.7 meters. The wave crest of the bow is more than one meter. The actual length of Shengyuan... from the stern deck to the inside of the bow, the actual length is 12 meters.
As a second-class fishing boat, the Shengyuan has major flaws in its design. This is why Zhou Sheng proposed to buy another fishing boat, and Chen Yuan agreed.
The Shengyuan can reach a maximum speed of 30 knots, but only has 420 horsepower...
It’s not that the horsepower is too small, but that in harsh sea conditions, a 420-horsepower engine paired with a very light hull is obviously insufficient in its ability to cope with harsh sea conditions.
Then there is the width of the fishing boat, which is said to be 3.5 meters wide. But this width is only the width of the rear deck. At the middle of the fishing boat, the width is only 3.3 meters. Then the width of the corridors on both sides of the fishing boat cabin is only 0.4 meters.
Too narrow.
The advantages of Shengyuanhao are equally outstanding compared to the disadvantages.
This boat costs about 2 million when new. As a fishing boat, its endurance is one of its major advantages. Another advantage is that the rear deck is particularly spacious. As a simple fishing boat, the fishing area on the front and rear decks can be said to be very limited.
Si. Another big advantage is fuel consumption.
The fuel consumption of the Shengyuan was also the main reason why Chen Yuan chose it in the first place.
"If you sell those fish today, you'll know how much money you can get." Zhou Sheng said, "How much budget can you allocate?"
"All the income from this fishing trip." Chen Yuan sat in Zhou Sheng's car and said with a smile: "What about you?"
I want to buy a comfortable fishing boat, which is not cheap.
"Same." Zhou Sheng chuckled and said, "In October, can you touch a large school of bluefin tuna?"
"If you want to catch large tuna schools this season, you have to go to the high seas."
"The bus channel can't be touched?"
"It will probably be November. The probability of encountering large tuna schools is too low now. Next time I go out, I will go to Xisha, Zhongsha and Nansha to look for mainly small tuna. If you are lucky, you can also expect larger ones in the South China Sea.
Tuna schools. The worst we can do is build a bottom seine net. By the way, have you recovered?" Chen Yuan felt that Zhou Sheng's previous symptoms should be barotrauma.
Barotrauma refers to tissue damage caused by a serious imbalance between the air pressure in the air-containing organs of the body and the external pressure.
Barotrauma is common during deep diving.
Zhou Sheng's physical fitness was also far superior to that of normal people. His condition was not serious at the time, so he didn't pay much attention to it.
"I've recovered." Zhou Sheng said with a smile: "Next time you choose to sink the seine net, you must choose the water layer within 150 meters. Otherwise, it will be too uncomfortable to dive repeatedly."
Chen Yuan said ‘hmm’.
In fact, the water layer within 100 meters contains the most fish. The main purpose of sinking seine nets is to look at the density of fish in a large area.
The depth of more than 170 meters chosen before was not because there were many fish at that depth, but because there were many fish in that area of the sea.
Arrive at the shipyard.
Lin Xinhai and the others had lunch and started working again.
Lin Xinhai helped weigh and load the truck at the roadside.
"How many more fish are there?" Chen Yuan shouted.
"More than ten tons," Lin Xinhai said.
"Are there another ten tons?"
Lin Xinhai chuckled: "Wouldn't it be better to have more fish?"
Zhou Sheng took a big plastic basket and said, "I'm going to put the fish in it."
Chen Yuan also followed up.
There are more than a dozen people carrying fish here.
Moving the fish from the boat relies entirely on manpower, which is a bit slow.
Chen Yuan and Zhou Sheng came over to move the fish together, but it wasn't much faster.
"Dad." Chen Yuan saw his father and shouted.
Dad said "Hey": "What are you doing here, your girlfriend?"
"They are playing by themselves." Chen Yuan said, "When will Chen Erwa arrive?"
"I called, I think I'll be there at 3:30." Dad said, "Let's work first, and we'll talk later."
Arriving at the freezer compartment, Xu Lixia was directing the loading.
"Master's wife." Zhou Sheng shouted.
"Master..." Chen Yuan shouted.
"Why are you here?" Xu Lixia looked at Chen Yuan: "Isn't your girlfriend here? She's outside?"
"Not here. They went shopping."
"Ask her to come over and let me see what she looks like." Xu Lixia said with a smile.
"Chen Yuan's girlfriend is just like a fairy daughter, very beautiful." Zhou Sheng sorted the fish and said with a smile.
