And because the seabed terrain where Canglang Reef is located was formed by volcanic eruptions, its seawater depth is less than fifty meters on average, and it is the intersection of two small ocean currents, so the fishery resources here are relatively abundant.
Most ocean-going fishing boats departing from Honglin Port in Binhai City will go here first.
If you cast two nets if there are fish or not, what if you catch a big one?
Due to the need to take care of the speed of No. 111, No. 137, which was originally able to drive to 17 knots, could only slow down to 14 knots.
Therefore, the two ships traveled to Canglang Reef for nearly ten hours.
We set off at around six in the morning and arrived at Canglang Reef at four in the afternoon.
They had a lunch on the boat, which consisted of roast chicken bought from the dock, stir-fried vegetables, and some fruits.
Of course, this kind of diet is only available during the initial period. After all these foods are consumed, you can only eat seafood, dried vegetables and pasta.
Under Liu Shan's order, fishing boats No. 111 and No. 137 drove their fish detection radars and circled Canglang Reef twice.
To his regret, he could not find any fish.
This is not surprising. Canglang Reef is very luck-based. After all, so many ocean-going fishing boats come here to take a look, and any schools of fish are likely to be caught by them first.
Of course, Liu Shan was not discouraged. After all, he had been mentally prepared for such a situation.
The two ships then followed the current southward and headed straight to the seagoing fishing grounds 1,100 nautical miles away.
The Hailun Fishing Ground is also located in the high seas and is also the intersection of two ocean currents. It is famous for its golden shrimps and squid.
Golden shrimp is a specialty product in this world. It is thicker than a human finger, but as long as a tachyon. Its body is golden yellow, it has no claws, and its meat is extremely delicious.
Once Xuanyan, a state-owned poet, after eating golden shrimps, he sighed: The meat is so delicious with the golden armor covering the blue waves.
In the Honglin Port Fish Market, the wholesale price of golden shrimp is 50 yuan per catty.
As for the retail price in other places, it is as high as 70-90 yuan per catty.
It takes more than three days to travel from Canglang Reef to Hailun Fishing Ground.
Of course, the two boats did not stop exploring the fish schools while they were traveling.
In fact, fishing boat No. 137 discovered a large school of fish when it was still more than 200 nautical miles away from the Hailun fishing ground.
Hearing the news, Fang Xiaoyue became excited.
No, life at sea is far from as comfortable as shown in novels or TV.
It has been three days since I left here, and I have been on the boat all the time. Since the boat is always moving and it is far away from the coast, even if I want to fish, it is not that easy.
Like the other six fishermen, one is considered the first mate. When Liu Shan needs a rest, he is responsible for steering the boat.
The other five fishermen were either sitting together playing poker, or playing on their mobile phones, drinking tea, and bragging.
Fang Xiaoyue wanted to participate, but unfortunately these fishermen were all over thirty. As soon as Fang Xiaoyue entered, they even talked a lot less.
Of course, he also knew that this was not necessarily a rejection of him, but just their caution towards a strange girl.
In this way, when Fang Xiaoyue is bored, she can only play with her mobile phone.
Fortunately, he has a lot of novels stored on his mobile phone to pass the time, otherwise he would really go crazy.
It was precisely because of this that Fang Xiaoyue became excited after hearing that she had discovered a large school of fish.
After all, it was so boring that my hands itched from boredom.
But soon, this excitement turned to frustration.
Liu Shan said it was oily fish and there was no need to catch it.
Oily fish is a species that can be seen in many worlds. Because it is rich in a kind of oil that cannot be digested by the human body, after people eat it, they cannot digest it and the oil will be released when they fart.
Therefore, its price is very low, and it is impossible for Liu Shan to use a cold storage to store this thing.
But the day after arriving at Hailun Fishing Ground, the situation changed greatly.
They discovered a huge swarm of golden shrimps!
Immediately, the two fishing boats became busy. The fishermen operated the crane to lower a huge seine into the sea.
At both ends of this seine are two offshore fishing boats.
After the two offshore fishing boats circled the shrimp swarm, the boom quickly pulled the seine net up from the sea.
Most of the shrimp swarm was caught in the seine net.
Then, as the boom of No. 137 raised one side of the seine net, densely packed golden shrimps were dumped on the deck of fishing boat No. 111 like a tide.
The fishermen on fishing boat No. 111 began to quickly put the golden shrimps into foam boxes. After weighing them, they put them into a freezer for quick freezing to prevent the golden shrimps from losing their freshness.
Fang Xiaoyue stood on the side of fishing boat No. 137, looking at the busy work on fishing boat No. 111, and she was very excited.
After all, the harvest is always beautiful and always brings a sense of satisfaction to people.
Liu Shan also came out of the cockpit with a smile and handed out a circle of cigarettes to the fishermen, but stopped when he reached Fang Xiaoyue.
Fang Xiaoyue is also embarrassed to smoke, after all, his current image is not consistent with smoking.
After a lot of work, news came from fishing boat No. 111 that the total weight of the golden shrimp was 5.71 tons.
After hearing the news, the calm fishermen on fishing boat No. 137 just smiled.
Fang Xiaoyue calculated in her mind that more than 10,000 kilograms of golden shrimps could be sold for more than 500,000 yuan!
My dear, no wonder Liu Shan was willing to take out a loan to buy another boat.
However, when the second net was pulled up, the catch was less than that of the first net, with only more than 3 tons of golden shrimps.
The two times add up to a total of 9 tons.
Of course, even so, Liu Shan would have earned back the gas expenses, wages and other expenses incurred during this trip.
Subsequent captures will be considered pure profits.
Therefore, even if no big fish were found in the next day, the smile on Liu Shan's face never stopped.
But on the third day after arriving at Hailun Fishing Ground, the fish detection radar discovered a large group of squid.
The price of squid is much cheaper than that of golden shrimp.
But considering that catching it was also a pure profit, Liu Shan did not hesitate and immediately ordered the fishing.
This time, probably considering the fact that fishing boat No. 137 had a good start, the squid were dumped onto the deck of No. 137.
Squid is a mollusk. When you touch it, it is soft and has a layer of mucus on it. It feels strange to the touch.
Of course, Fang Xiaoyue didn't worry so much. Together with other fishermen, he took out the foam box and quickly packed it up.
The squid group is larger than the golden shrimp group, and the total weight of the two catches is 17 tons.
The wholesale price of squid is between 12-15 yuan.
Fang Xiaoyue glanced at Liu Shan, feeling like money signs appeared in his eyes.
These squid made Liu Shan earn more than 400,000 yuan.
However, in the next two days, their harvest at the Hailun Fishing Ground was not very good.
Found a school of bonito.
However, the price of bonito in the domestic market has not been very good in recent years, and the wholesale price has been as low as 6 yuan per catty.
However, Liu Shan still ordered the fishing.
Several fishermen speculated that Liu Shan's next step was to prepare to head to the Golden Gun Islands.
The Tuna Islands are a fishing ground close to the Gomora Kingdom, but this is a neglected area, mainly rich in tuna and blue crabs.
Regardless of whether you are fishing for tuna or blue crab, you need to use bait.
Bonito is cheap and can be used as bait.
After catching more than three tons of bonito, the two ocean-going fishing boats immediately turned towards the Tuna Islands, which are more than 2,000 nautical miles away.
After more than ten days of sailing, fishing boats No. 111 and No. 137 arrived at the Golden Gun Islands.
I have to say that it was a good idea for Liu Shan to choose the Golden Gun Islands.
Shortly after arriving near the Tuna Islands, the fish detection radar discovered a large school of tuna traveling underwater.
If you didn’t say anything, log off the Internet immediately.
The entire process of lowering the net, trawling and collecting the net took more than five hours, from noon to evening before the net was successfully collected.
And this net almost made Liu Shan feel happy.
This is a school of bluefin tuna.
As soon as the net was lowered, more than 20 heavy-weight bluefin tuna were caught, with a total weight of more than five tons.
The largest bluefin tuna weighed more than 600 pounds, and the smallest bluefin tuna weighed more than 400 pounds.
After the tuna is caught, the fishermen use fishing knives to quickly disembowel the tuna and bleed it, and then send it to the cold storage.
No way, if you catch tuna and don't bleed it in time, when the blood soaks into the fish, the fish will taste bad, reducing the quality and making it worthless.
After that, fishing in the Golden Gun Islands can be described as a joy that turns into a tragedy.
For three consecutive days, the fish detection radar discovered large groups of tuna and successfully caught them.
Within a few days, the tuna caught weighed more than 60 tons.
It can be said that even if they return now, Liu Shan and even the fishermen will make a lot of money.
But whether it was Liu Shan or the fishermen, they had finally made a trip to the Golden Gun Islands and the catch was good, so naturally they were not willing to return like this.
However, several days of continuous fishing have consumed a lot of diesel on the ship. If we want to continue fishing, we may not even have enough diesel to return home.
So after thinking for a while, Liu Shan decided to go to Tais Port in Gomorrah to buy some ingredients in addition to replenishing oil.
After all, after being at sea for so many days, everyone was tired of eating seafood and soup made from dried vegetables every day.
If we can purchase some fresh ingredients, everyone's spirits will be lifted.
After sailing for more than a day, the fishing boat arrived at Tays Port.
Liu Shan took the captains and first mates of the two ships ashore to buy oil and ingredients, and also gave the fishermen a day's rest.
As soon as Liu Shan left, the remaining fishermen started discussing.
After all, if everyone goes ashore, the safety of the fishing boat cannot be guaranteed.
You must know that Tais Port is not as safe and peaceful as domestic ports.
To be precise, the entire country of Gomorrah is not safe.
Gomorrah is one of the few countries in the world that allows the legal possession of guns, and the country's economy is not very prosperous, and various illegal activities are emerging in an endless stream.
Shootings like Xuanyan, which are rarely seen once a year in China, happen every day here.
However, Fang Xiaoyue came to many planes and saw many exotic customs. He was not very interested in this so-called Gomorrah country at all, so before other fishermen asked him, he said that he would stay on the boat.
When several fishermen heard what Fang Xiaoyue said, they immediately became happy. When they left, they even said that they would bring back small gifts for Fang Xiaoyue.
Well, looking at the excitement of these fishermen, Fang Xiaoyue guessed that their coming ashore was probably not a formal sightseeing activity, and they might go to participate in some special activities.
Of course, they are all adults and not Fang Xiaoyue's relatives. Fang Xiaoyue has no intention to advise them to pay attention to safety in a foreign country.
As soon as the fishermen left, the boat immediately became safe.
Fang Xiaoyue immediately pulled out a beach chair from the cabin, took advantage of the less dazzling sunshine, lay on the beach chair, took out her mobile phone, and borrowed the free WF network at the port to download some novels.
The climate here is pretty good.
At this time in Binhai City in China, even though it has entered autumn, the autumn tiger will still make people sweat.
But here, the dazzling sunshine and the cool sea breeze slowly blew by, quickly making Fang Xiaoyue drowsy.
But not long after, he was awakened by a sudden sound.
He looked up and saw a Gomorrah child flipping onto the ship and landing on the deck. The two of them looked at each other, and the Gomorrah child's body froze involuntarily.
The Gomorrans are considered white, but their reputation in this world is not very good.
If Gomorrah's economy is not doing well, many Gomorrans will find ways to smuggle themselves to other developed countries.
The country of Xuanyan is one of the main targets for the Gomorrans to smuggle into the country.
The Gomorrans in Xuanyan's country are notorious.
Many cases of theft, robbery, etc. are related to them.
This Gomorrah child is about fifteen years old, with a fair face dotted with freckles and messy yellow hair.
The whole person still looks a bit cute.
But what he did next was a little less cute.
When he saw Fang Xiaoyue staring at him, the Gomora child immediately pulled out a dagger from his calf and shouted viciously at Fang Xiaoyue: "Girl, hand over the money, or I'll cut your throat."
Face!"
The only good thing about Fang Xiaoyue after he came to this world is that he retains the gift of the gods to understand languages, so he can understand this sentence.
Well, this sentence made him feel angry.
This was probably the first time he heard someone call him "little girl" after he came to many worlds.
Although his current body is that of a girl, he still considers it a great offense to himself.
"Kneel down! Apologize!"
Fang Xiaoyue also warned the other party in Gomorran language.
But probably Fang Xiaoyue's female appearance was not a threat in the eyes of the other party, so the Gomorrah child rushed towards Fang Xiaoyue with the dagger raised.
Judging from the expression on his face, he probably really wanted to stab Fang Xiaoyue.
This is not surprising, it is often children of this age who do not know the importance of things and cause big troubles.
What's more, in a place like Gomorrah, this kid is probably a habitual thief.
Stabbing people with a knife has probably become his usual means of survival.
In his past theft and robbery career, this child would always hand over the money honestly after taking out a dagger, so Fang Xiaoyue's words made him particularly angry, thinking that Fang Xiaoyue had provoked his dignity.
