The first thousand three hundred and sixty-seven chapters go to sea
Old Wu sneered and said: "It is said that people rely on mountains to eat mountains and people to rely on water to eat water. Maybe it is because there are too many living materials here and they can easily eat, so they don't like some dangerous jobs and no one is willing to do them.
, such as fishing, offshore fishing is nothing, but offshore fishing can not make much money.¤”
Han Peacock never thought of this, but will offshore fishing make no money?
Perhaps seeing Han Kongque's confusion, Old Wu said: "We'll talk about this later. I'll give him some money first and send him away."
After speaking, Lao Wu took out ten dollars, handed it to the man, and said: "What is the number of your ship? We will find it ourselves."
"ss6738, my boat is easy to find. You can see it as soon as you get to the dock." After saying that, the man took the money and ran away. It seemed that his child was seriously ill.
Han Kongque looked at the money in his hand and said with a wry smile: "I'll do it! After all, it's the boat I rented."
"You only have this little money, so you're welcome." Lao Wu didn't accept the money from Han Peacock. Ten US dollars was only over sixty yuan, so there was no need to care too much.
"Aren't you asking them why they can't make money? These people are lazy. You want them to go to sea for a few days? That's impossible. You want them to go to the sea to collect abalone? They will never do it, and they don't have the ability.
The locals are extremely poor and have no diving equipment at all, which makes them cheap for the little Japanese who come here." Old Wu said with a sneer.
"Are there many Japanese here?" Han Peacock asked.
"A lot, they help the East Timor government more, especially all kinds of assistance, almost every year, and the total total is even more than our country. So the Japanese are very popular here, so they are doing business here.
There are more, especially in the fishing industry. If you want to go to sea, you will inevitably have to deal with those little Japanese." Lao Wu said.
"There are also Japanese here in Hela?" Han Peacock asked.
Lao Wu said: "Of course. As long as there are places where seafood is produced, there are Japanese. These Japanese buy local lobsters, prawns, abalone, blue crabs, black crabs, and coconut crabs. Of course, their biggest targets are all kinds of
tuna."
"I'll go to the pier and take a look at the fishing conditions here." Han Kongque said.
"Okay, I'll take you there, otherwise you won't be able to find a place to park the boat." Old Wu said.
"Thank you. I'll treat you to seafood tonight." Han Peacock laughed.
Old Wu also smiled: "Then I will wait for your seafood."
After walking out of the room, Old Wu packed up, took a backpack and put it on his back before walking out of his shop.
Han Kongque followed Lao Wu, crossed the street, and walked directly towards the seaside.
The seaside is fairly flat. It's more lively than the village just now, and the buildings are a bit higher quality. At least they're not the thatched houses just now.
"There are many foreigners here, including Japanese, Indonesians, Australians, Portuguese, and some from Portuguese-speaking countries. These people are either fishing here, acquiring companies, or planning to contract a piece of land.
The sea area is ready for breeding." Old Wu said.
"No one from our country has come here?" Han Peacock asked.
"Yes, but most of them are fishermen, or they work on the dock. Not many are ready to do business." Old Wu said.
"Look. The row of small fishing boats over there are not all local. There is a deep water area over there. Some small foreign fishing boats are parked there. Here, the fishing boats over several hundred tons are all from foreign countries. Australia and Indonesia have the most.
." Lao Wu introduced the situation here.
Han Peacock saw many small boats in the distance. The local boats were really small. They were all small fishing boats five or six meters long. There was something carried on the stern, which should be a small motor.
There are many foreign fishing boats. The largest one should be 500 tons. This should be regarded as an ocean-going fishing boat.
"When you catch seafood, go over there and sell it. There are two fish markets over there, one in the morning and one in the evening. Now that we are here late, the morning market over there is almost gone." Old Wu pointed to a shanty town.
Han Kongque saw that there were still some scattered stalls there, but there didn't seem to be many people going to buy things, maybe because the market was about to close.
"Look, this is a Japanese company that buys abalone and so on. Eighty abalones are only fifty dollars, and fifty abalones are only one hundred dollars. It's really a scam." Old Wu pointed to a two-story building.
There is a big sign outside the building.
Han Kongque saw a lot of numbers on the signboard. He didn't understand it at first, but now he realized that it was the purchase price.
There are only some ordinary seafood on it, such as the eighty-head abalone and the fifty-head abalone that Lao Wu mentioned just now.
In China, if eighty abalones are dried, it will cost seven to eight hundred yuan, and fifty abalones will definitely cost thousands. However, if you buy them here, you can get them for only three hundred or six hundred yuan. If you transport them back to China, you can make a profit.
Still very good.
"Let's go in and take a look. Since we are going to sea, we need some equipment to see if this fishing company has it." Han Peacock took the lead and walked towards the Japanese company.
Although he was reluctant, Han Peacock had already passed, and Old Wu had no choice but to follow.
"Hello, sir, how can I help you?" As soon as we walked in, a little man with obvious Japanese features came over and asked.
The mustache on the little man's face is so eye-catching that anyone who is Chinese can recognize him.
"I'm going out to sea and want to catch some abalone. Come here and ask about the price." Han Peacock said, and he said yes in English. The Japanese just now also spoke in English because he saw that they were Chinese.
"Our prices here are transparent and cannot fluctuate. If this gentleman is from China, he should know that our purchase price is not low." Xiao Nippon said directly.
"Well, I mainly want to ask about the price of ten-headed abalone and above. You haven't written down the purchase price for these." Han Peacock said with a smile.
"Ten-headed abalone? If you can really catch it, we can buy it for one thousand dollars per catty." Xiao Nippon was stunned, and then offered a high price without hesitation.
"Where's the nine-headed abalone?" Han Peacock asked again.
"Two thousand dollars for eight-headed abalone, three thousand for seven-headed abalone, and five thousand for six-headed abalone. If we can catch a bigger one, then we are talking about it. That kind of price can already be auctioned.
I think you should be very clear about this gentleman." Little Japan said quickly, because he did not believe that Korean peacocks could collect large abalone.
Six-headed abalone means six abalones weighing one pound. Such abalones are still collected in East Timor. As for larger abalones, they are very rare. After all, they are wild and can only grow to such a big size in seven or eight years.
This is not the ancient time. All kinds of diving equipment are complete. In addition, Indonesia, Australia and the Japanese have been here for several years, so they have already raided the larger abalone countless times, and now it is difficult to find.
"Do you have tools for collecting abalone here? I'll buy a set." Han Peacock had already seen the tools here, and they contained the tools he needed.
Han Peacock said this, this little Japan is even more careless. It doesn’t even have professional tools, but it still wants to collect five-headed abalone? It’s simply a wishful thinking!
"Five dollars." Little Japan bid directly.
Han Peacock did not bargain. He packed up a few net bags and returned a simple steel drill. With this tool, he could remove the abalone stuck on the rocks. If he encountered the kind hidden in the sand, he would
It's easier.
Han Peacock paid five dollars, took his things, and walked out.
"These little Japans have this kind of virtue. They bow and bend down when they need you. But when you are no longer needed, they just dress up and look arrogant. It's disgusting to see them." Old Wu couldn't stand the little Japans.
appearance.
Of course, Han Peacock couldn't stand it, but now he couldn't argue with them, because now only the Japanese were willing to buy the seafood he collected at high prices.
Of course, some Western companies can also acquire it, but the market is definitely not as mature as Japan, because the Japanese seafood trade is more prosperous.
Walking to the shore, Lao Wu said: "That's the fishing boat. If you want to go out to sea, go now and come back early in the afternoon. This is some rice we ate in the morning. I put it in the thermos bucket for you. At noon
Just eat a little bit and we'll have a nice dinner when we come back in the evening."
When Han Kongque was about to board the ship, Lao Wu actually gave Han Kongque a backpack. The backpack contained a large thermal bucket and an insulated water cup. Seeing this, Han Kongque really didn't know what to say.
"Thank you." Han Peacock said.
Although Lao Wu needed Han Kongque's help, these were all unknown, and it was because of this that Lao Wu was so attentive that he even prepared lunch for him when he went out to sea.
"You're welcome, let's go!" Lao Wu smiled and waved his hand.
Han Peacock started the fire, and the operator's small fishing boat buzzed away from the pier.
This small fishing boat is easy to operate, and Han Peacock can easily operate it after getting used to it.
There weren't many fishing boats going out to sea at this time, so Han Kongque didn't have to worry about colliding with other boats. Once they sailed out, he would be even less afraid.
After watching Lao Wu leave on the shore, Han Peacock turned his attention to the boat.
Abalone, known as brighteye in ancient times, has occupied a distinguished position in Chinese cuisine since ancient times.
The "new wave" emperor Wang Mang and Cao Cao from the Three Kingdoms era were both enthusiastic supporters of abalone.
Since then, abalone has appeared in banquets as a precious and famous dish. Until now, abalone has become one of China's classic banquet dishes.
Since someone buys abalone here, it means that this area also produces abalone. In fact, abalone is produced in sea areas all over the world, and the only dried abalone is Japanese abalone, African abalone, Middle Eastern abalone, and Australian abalone.
