Chapter 451 Arriving at the target sea
Once again, the crew was in high spirits after a few days of rest. Even Zhuang Haiyang, who is the leader, seems to enjoy the life of staying on the ship more. Unlike the previous ones, they had to fish at sea.
According to the previously selected sea area, Zhuang Haiyang still did not carry out fishing operations in the economic sea area of New Zealand, as promised. Even though he obtained the appropriate fishing license, he still felt that he would gain more if he went farther.
Looking at the direction of the ocean-going fishing boat, Wang Yanming, who was in charge of driving the boat, suddenly said: "Ocean, there will be a chance in the future, should we not go around the Antarctic Inland Sea?
"There must be a scientific research station, but if our fishing boat wants to sail over, have you considered the consequences? You know, the closer you get to the interior of Antarctica, the more likely it is to encounter ice floe at sea. Compared to the ice floe that is expressed, sinking in the sea is more terrifying. ”
Although the tonnage of our fishing boat is not small, if we really hit that kind of submarine ice floe, the consequences will still be very serious. I used to fish in tropical waters, but this time we went to the sea, the sea temperature should be lower, right?"
"Well, before you go, didn't I ask you all to prepare a little more clothes? As long as you don't get too close to the outer circle of Antarctica, I believe it shouldn't be too much of a problem. In fact, I didn't want to go that far. ”
Although Zhuang Haiyang also thought about it, he had the opportunity to go to the iceberg-covered Antarctic continent for a turn. But he knew that he should be able to adapt to that extremely harsh environment. The problem is that it is difficult to say with so many comrades-in-arms.
If something really happens, the consequences are still very serious. You can't let the whole ship go on an adventure with you because of a momentary interest, right?
While chatting about these gossips, Zhuang Haiyang, who had lunch on the boat, arranged for everyone to take a lunch break as usual. Considering that the fishing boat is very sailing in the economic zone, the crew did not arrange any work, and rested or was in a daze as usual.
After a lunch break of nearly two hours, Zhuang Haiyang greeted Hong Wei, and quickly put on a diving suit and prepared to dive again. Seeing this scene, Hong Wei also said in a timely manner: "Take it easy, the temperature of the sea water here is different from that in China." ”
"Don't worry! I know in my heart, haven't I swam on the way here? Taking advantage of this opportunity, I also need to go to the sea to find out the situation. We've just come here, and the more we know about what's going on under the sea, the better, isn't it?"
Different from fishing operations in domestic waters, Zhuang Haiyang, who has just come here, always feels that he needs to know more. The most important thing is that there seems to be more marine energy that Dinghaizhu can absorb here.
If he will be a little more leisurely in China, then he naturally doesn't need it here. Absorb more beneficial energy from the ocean, and the next time you return to China, you can also release more of the energy you absorb into the sea near Nanshan Island.
In addition, Zhuang Haiyang also reorganized the underground water veins of the ranch. Although the water quality of the underground water veins has been baptized very clean. But every once in a while, you still need to replenish beneficial energy to the water veins.
This is also the reason why Zhuang Haiyang is not worried at all, and after others take over the ranch, he can maintain the status quo. The beneficial energy distributed in the underground water veins will dissipate after a while.
What's more, the water tower built by the ranch also has beneficial energy provided by Zhuang Haiyang from time to time. It is precisely because of this supply of beneficial energy that we can ensure that the drinking water of pasture livestock is different, and the quality of fruits and vegetables in the plantation is getting better and better.
The unharvested kiwifruit and kiwiberry in the pasture, as well as several other common fruits with high economic value, will also bring a lot of income to the ranch in the future. These high-quality fruits, Zhuang Haiyang also intends to export as luxury fruits.
Others may be jealous, but they are unlikely to forcibly take away his pasture. Even if he takes away his pasture, without the beneficial energy provided by the ocean, the quality of the fruit grown in the next season may be greatly reduced and become ordinary.
Therefore, for the current Zhuang Haiyang, the larger the area of Dinghai Pearl, the more beneficial energy water will be accumulated. And this kind of accumulation is all based on Zhuang Haiyang's usual cultivation, taking Dinghai Zhu in the sea and absorbing the energy of the sea.
As Hong Wei and others felt, the sea temperature in the sea area of New Zealand is indeed lower than that in China. But for Zhuang Haiyang at this moment, this temperature will not affect him too much.
With the release of Dinghaizhu, looking at Dinghaizhu that began to rotate, Zhuang Haiyang also smiled and said: "Maybe it is the happiest at this moment." Rather than hiding in my body every day, it might be more willing to soak in the sea all day!"
Compared to the effect of releasing beneficial energy, the movement of absorbing the energy of the sea is smaller. Looking at the schools of fish swimming in the sea around him, Zhuang Haiyang found that the number of fish in the sea here is indeed more than in China.
"Orderly fishing is really important! Compared with the speed of fishing, the speed of reproduction is still much slower!"
For those who are engaged in fishing in China, everyone knows the embarrassing situation of no fishing in the coastal waters. Even if the country begins to implement a fishing ban or fishing moratorium, it is not clear when the fishery resources of the past will be restored.
Compared with many fishing boats in China, some often use the kind of forbidden 'no children' nets in order to catch more fish. On the Nyusile side, all fish sold must meet the permissible fishing standards.
Correspondingly, fishing vessels going to sea and fishing tools used must also meet official requirements. Once someone dares to violate the law, then the corresponding punishment may make many ship owners bankrupt instantly. At this point, Cinsille is still extremely harsh.
Zhuang Haiyang, who dived to the bottom of the sea, looked at the lobsters and crabs that crawled in front of me from time to time, and also felt a little unbearable. Compared with the biological situation on the seabed in China, the number of marine organisms under the seabed here is indeed much more.
Seeing this scene, Zhuang Haiyang couldn't help but sigh: "If you really want to catch it, it is estimated that it will not be long before you will catch it softly! These big lobsters, if they are transported back to China by air, the price is still good." ”
Thinking of Zhuang Haiyang here, he was not in a hurry to start. This time, the ocean-going fishing vessels in Zhuang Ocean still only have two fishing tools. One is a trawl net, and the other is a crab pot specially used to catch king crabs.
The sea area where the fishing boat is now going is the sea where king crabs live. Even though many people know that king crab is not as easy to catch as expected, sometimes it takes even more luck. But the payoff is still extremely amazing.
For Zhuang Haiyang, it turned out to be fishing abroad, and ordinary sea crabs naturally had no interest. Only this kind of king crab in New Zealand, which is also not cheap, is interested in catching it in large quantities.
As long as the king crab caught meets the listing standards of New Zealand, he believes that the fishing boat's income will not be too low every time. Even later, he was able to secure the supply of seafood to the ranch with fishing boats.
In addition to providing the ranch's specialties, the ocean caught by the fishing boats can also be used as a supply for tourists visiting the ranch. In terms of price, it is still cheaper than the restaurant. But if it is profitable, it will be more profitable to sell it directly.
Following the fishing boat, Zhuang Haiyang wandered in the sea for two or three hours. Looking at the gradually darkening sky, Zhuang Haiyang also planned to return to the ship immediately. Before leaving, he deliberately dived into the sea and caught more than a dozen large lobsters in one go.
Every time he dives into the sea, Zhuang Haiyang will bring a net bag, looking at the net bag crowded with lobsters, Zhuang Haiyang also smiled and said: "These big lobsters are used to add food at night, I believe those guys will be very happy!"
In the process of exploring the seabed this time, Zhuang Haiyang also found some places with reefs on the bottom of the sea, and found a lot of abalone. After coming to Nyusile for a long time, he knew that abalone was really not a rare seafood in Nyusile.
But in the domestic market, the black gold abalone of New Zealand has always been highly sought after by the market. In Zhuang Haiyang's view, tonight he will use lobster to add food to his comrades-in-arms, and if he has the opportunity tomorrow, he will catch some abalone for his comrades-in-arms.
Even, he has already considered making some dried abalone on the ranch side of the pasture in the future. When you return to China, you will bring these dried abalone back and hand them over to Shibaoge for sale, and I believe that the income will be higher.
Anyway, although abalone is protected in New Zealand, the number of such things is really scary. The tourists invited this time also have anchors, and this trip to the ranch can be regarded as a real taste of what is the delicacy of big abalone.
In China, if you want to eat such a big abalone, I am afraid that tourists and anchors may not be able to eat it if you have money. Of course, this has something to do with the fact that some indigenous people in the South Island dare not eat this black gold abalone. The customs are different!
The crew members who were patrolling the ship saw Zhuang Haiyang, who suddenly jumped up from the sea and pulled the rope ladder, and hurriedly ran over and said, "Haiyang, do you need help?
"No, it's okay to be idle, dived and caught some big lobsters, and added a dish in the evening. Such a large lobster is a rare commodity in China. When I got here, it didn't seem to be worth much. If we have a chance, let's eat more. ”
"It's also oh! Such a big lobster, if it is in China, it may not be willing to eat it!"
After a while, looking at Zhuang Haiyang, who had returned to the ship safely, other comrades-in-arms who were resting soon saw more than a dozen big lobsters thrown to the deck. When everyone sighed, Zhuang Haiyang said: "Come on, send the lobster to the kitchen!"
"Ocean, such a big lobster, let's eat it ourselves?"
"What's the matter? You still want to take it back and sell it? Don't worry, if you like to eat it, find a suitable sea area at that time, and I'll take you into the water to catch lobsters." The number of lobsters here must be beyond your imagination. ”
Knowing what these comrades-in-arms were thinking, they felt that it was a pity to eat such a big lobster. But in Zhuang Haiyang's view, as a crew engaged in fishing, they should try any seafood.
Besides, driving such a large fishing boat to the sea, naturally you don't need to rely on a few big lobsters to make up for fuel!
Looking at the dozen or so big lobsters that were temporarily delivered, Wu Xingcheng, who was busy in the kitchen, said very happily: "This guy from the ocean caught it from the sea again?"
"Lao Wu, wait a minute, cook these lobsters, we're waiting for the meal!"
"Okay! make a few steamed, a few more minced garlic, and by the way, a few more braised ones, three flavors, you can choose, now you are satisfied, right? I have to say, after staying on this ship for a long time, no matter how precious seafood will be accustomed in the future!"
"Hehe, yes! Such a superb seafood, if it is changed to be in China, let others know, it is estimated that we will also scold us for wasting! However, this is overseas, it is rare to have such an opportunity, so naturally we have to eat more!"
The old comrades-in-arms who have been with Zhuang Haiyang for a long time know that this guy has never been a stingy person. Especially at sea, the food is even better. If you catch any good seafood, you must let your comrades-in-arms taste it.
After dinner, these freshly caught lobsters were naturally eaten by their comrades. Considering that it had not yet reached the sea area where there was a king crab, the fishing boat did not rest and continued to sail overnight to the target sea area.
By the time the fishing vessel arrives at the area where the king crab is active, it is naturally out of the economic sea area of New Zealand. When the fishing boat began to slow down, Zhuang Haiyang also said in a timely manner: "Lao Wang, drive slowly and go around the surroundings." ”
"Good!"
Knowing that Zhuang Haiyang also needed to observe whether there was a king crab in the nearby sea, Wang Yanming began to slow down the speed of the boat, and sailed slowly around the nearby sea area in the direction of Zhuang Haiyang.
The rest of the crew also began to put the prepared crab traps as Zhuang Haiyang ordered, first placing bait to trap crabs, and then adjusting the depth of the buoy according to Zhuang Haiyang's requirements.
Unlike other crabs caught domestically, most king crabs are located in the deep sea. When you get into the crab pot, the rope you prepare will naturally be longer. Correspondingly, the waiting time is also longer.
After sailing around the nearby sea area for a while, Zhuang Haiyang once again hit the direction of the fishing boat's sailing, and at the same time signaled: "Sail at the lowest speed!" Junzi, a few of you are going to get down the crab pot and throw it according to the position I said, remember?"
"Remember!"
"The depth of the buoy, put it to 300 meters!"
"Understood!"
As Zhuang Haiyang made the gesture of releasing the cage, Zhu Junhong and the others, who had already prepared, began to cooperate with each other and threw the huge crab pot into the sea next to the boat. As the crab pot sank rapidly, only buoys remained on the surface of the sea for a while.
Every time he sails a certain distance, Zhuang Haiyang will make a gesture to release the crab pot. This mode of operation is not much different from that in China. It's just that the crab pots have become bigger and the ropes tied are longer.
After throwing away all the crab pots I carried, I stood on the deck and looked out, and many buoys were clearly visible. According to Zhuang Haiyang's observation, if it goes well, he may be able to come over early tomorrow morning to open the crab pot.
Next, he still needs to lead the crew to start looking for a suitable area for trawling for the first trawling operation of the distant-water fishing vessel. As for the catch, Zhuang Haiyang believes that they will not be disappointed!
Now Zhuang Haiyang has to worry about it, maybe when he releases the energy of Dinghaizhu, it is better not to attract too many big guys. After all, when he was diving in the sea before, he had seen a huge whale!
