Chapter 190 It’s coming, it’s coming, don’t rush it
The tuna that Chen Yuan and the others had longed for finally arrived, but at this critical moment, Lin Xinhai pulled it again.
Why do you say again?
Chen Yuan also felt strange.
Hearing that the host of the Xinhai was malfunctioning, Luo Laosi felt his blood pressure soar and contacted Chen Yuan: "Yuanzi, can you catch the tuna?"
"It's difficult." Chen Yuan was also confused: "The power of our boat is low. The tuna below should be a large adult fish school. The speed that the bluefin tuna explodes after being frightened can be chased by our boat."
Not on."
This position is very awkward now. Going south, at the speed of tuna, it will take more than two hours to reach the Philippine waters.
What Chen Yuan is more worried about is that the fish school will disperse after being frightened.
It is estimated that there are less than 200 fish in this school. However, these fish must be very big as they can live at a depth of about 550 meters.
Bluefin tuna, besides bluefin tuna, Chen Yuan can't think of any other large fish that swims in groups and can swim in deep sea in this sea area. It's also so fast.
All the characteristics are consistent with the bluefin tuna group.
The fish school was getting closer and closer to the sea surface, and the speed also slowed down. At this most critical moment, Lin Xinhai lost his chain again.
"Gan."
Not only Luo Laosi's blood pressure soared, but Chen Yuan also felt his blood pressure soar.
"Master." Chen Yuan called over the radio.
"Your master has gone to the engine room." The mate of the Xinhai said.
"Is the problem big?" Chen Yuan asked.
"I don't know. If the engineer goes there with us, we should be able to handle it quickly."
"This Lao Hai always has loose stools at critical moments. He has loose stools and loose stools, that's what the Sichuan dialect says."
Chen Yuan smiled: "That's what I said. Every time I have diarrhea at critical moments, I am speechless."
Time passed very slowly, and Chen Yuan felt like the days passed like years.
If this fish school is not found, Chen Yuan feels that this year will not be good.
Lin Xinhai was also very angry in the engine room. From time to time he glanced at the engineer who smelled of alcohol.
The engineer lowered his head and quickly investigated the cause of the malfunction, but he couldn't control his body because he drank too much.
Lin Xinhai was so angry that he asked the engineer to go to the side and investigate the cause of the fault himself.
Half an hour later, the Xinhai regained power again and rushed towards Chen Yuan and the others at full power.
The tuna are now moving slowly and forming a circle.
Chen Yuan was still far away from the tuna and did not dare to disturb them.
Lin Xinhai's voice came over the radio again: "Report location."
Chen Yuan reported the location. The current distance between Chen Yuan and Lin Xinhai was 34 nautical miles. During this period, the tuna moved slowly. It should be that the fish schools were moving slowly. The tuna formed a circle and moved around the circle.
But I don’t know when group tours will resume.
It was past twelve o'clock, and Chen Yuan and Zhou Sheng could already see Luo Lao No. 4 fishing boat.
"Uncle Luo, please stay farther away and see if Master can come over." Chen Yuanda said.
"Okay." Luo Laosi agreed.
There are more than a hundred bluefin tuna, and the initial weight of each individual is estimated to be more than 200 kilograms. It is the Chinese New Year, and everything is expensive now, not to mention the price of chilled tuna.
Luo Laosi was calculating how much these fishes were worth.
Even if each one weighs 200 kilograms and there are 110 of them, that is 22,000 kilograms. The price per kilogram is guaranteed to be 150 yuan...
150 yuan is a bargain. At the current price, yellowfin tuna with slightly better meat quality, chilled, can be sold for 150 yuan. That is 200 yuan per catty. After all, it is bluefin tuna, and it is big.
Luo Laosi calculated that it was at least more than four million.
Ten percent, more than 400,000?
Well?
Thinking of this, Luo Laosi's boiling blood suddenly calmed down.
this……
I only get a 10% profit share.
For this 10%, I invested 380,000 yuan.
Well, with this ratio of investment and share, we can only recover the capital.
But for Chen Yuan and the others, it was a profit.
These are just conservative estimates. I hope this fish school is bigger. Otherwise, it would be uncomfortable to make tens of thousands or hundreds of thousands with an investment of 380,000. Especially seeing Lin Xinhai and others making a lot of money...
The tuna school has floated to more than 100 meters. At this depth, the net can be lowered.
But Lin Xinhai hasn't come yet, not yet...
Zhou Sheng smoked a cigarette depressedly: "This Lao Hai is really unreliable. I'm a giaogiaoogiao..."
"Give me a cigarette," Chen Yuanda said.
Zhou Sheng threw the cigarettes to Chen Yuan, and Chen Yuan lit one.
"Are the fish out of the water?" Luo Laosi's voice came over the radio.
"It's more than 100 meters. At this depth, we can almost launch the net."
"Don't worry, I'm here. The fish are not moving now, are they?"
"Doing a circling motion."
"That's good, I should be able to come over."
Luo Laosi heard Lin Xinhai's voice and became angry: "I don't want to talk to you."
Lin Xinhai laughed a few times: "The host failed. This was an accident."
"You still have the nerve to say that the main engine is out of order? What does your engineer do for a living?"
Lin Xinhai's face became hot and he sighed.
Since going out to sea, the Xinhai has launched two nets, and after more than a month, it has not landed a single net.
The crew members were all slack, and so was Lin Xinhai, who followed Chen Yuan and the others around aimlessly every day.
The crew is a boring bunch.
Lin Xinhai was also feeling panicked and bored during this period. Whenever he had free time, he would play with some pots of green plants in the captain's cabin.
The same goes for the engineer, who drinks and plays cards with the ship's workers every day. The maintenance work that should be done every day is only done once every few days.
Who would have thought that when we were about to go back, we would find a school of tuna.
"The depth is about 150 meters." After two o'clock, Chen Yuan calculated the depth of the tuna and reported it to Lin Xinhai and Luo Laosi.
"Should I get closer?" Luo Laosi.
"Wait, wait for Master's boat to come." Chen Yuandao: "What we have to do now is not to disturb the fish. As for what Master said about catching fish, don't try it unless it is absolutely necessary."
When it comes to catching fish, the power of the Shengyuan fishing boat is too small, it makes little noise, and its speed is not fast.
If it is Yuanxing 55, you can try it.
The tuna schools are rotating now, so let them continue to rotate. The Xinkai is not very far away.
On the Xinhai, Lin Xinhai held his head in his hands, faster, faster.
Ma Dan.
Lin Xinhai wanted to jump into the sea and push the fishing boat away. Really, he wished he could install an engine on his body and push the fishing boat into the sea.
I am irritable, very irritable.
Lin Xinhai opened the thermos cup filled with wolfberry, took a sip, and burned his lips. His already irritable mood became even more irritable now.
"Gan."
Chen Yuan scratched his head, lit another cigarette, and came to the back deck of the fishing boat.
The feeling now is that every day seems like a year.
"The school of fish has risen again, about a hundred meters away from the sea surface." Zhou Sheng shouted.
