Chapter 16 (4) Poke the crab nest
Yang Yi couldn't, he secretly gave two drops of spiritual water to these two "big little guys", and then comforted them to stay honest, not to run in front of people or attack people casually, planning to turn around and find an opportunity to receive them into the Dragon Ball space.
The blue whale family of three was also cruising nearby, since Yang Yi gave them spiritual water, they were reluctant to leave here, and even took the initiative to help him catch the tuna school, Yang Yi also had a very good impression of these smart "big men", and also booked them as members of the Dragon Ball space.
This busy work until the afternoon of the next day, caught a full two hundred bluefin tuna of various sizes, filled the freezer tank with more than half, this batch of tuna is worth at least tens of millions, both Yang Yi and the crew are very excited, but they are also tired and can't stand it, some of them lie directly on the deck full of blood, and they don't know whether they are sleeping or panting.
In two days, they worked continuously, if it was just tuna, it would be fine, but there were all kinds of things that could be caught, octopus, squid, minke whales all ran up, and finally the tuna in this area was caught, and Yang Yi let the cod that was put into the net and pulled a net, mainly to deal with Chen Jiahui's side. Of course, this is also a good thing, and tens of thousands of tons of cod are also a lot of red tickets.
contacted the warship, because it was delayed for half a day when passing through the Indonesian waters, it would take a day to arrive to meet Yang Yi, so he planned to walk forward, the hospitals in this sea area are still very rich, just to see if there are any good things that can be fished, and it is not a trip in vain.
Half a day later, the Zhushan and the Pearl stopped at the junction of a not too deep ocean current, and he found that there was something good underneath that he had been thinking about. This is a giant crab with a red body and as big as a basin, which is lazily lying on the bottom of the sea at a depth of more than 100 meters at the moment, and it is really the Australian king crab he has been thinking about.
"Third brother, take care of everyone and prepare the crab pot, I think there are crabs down here, you prepare first, I'll go down and have a look!"
After Yang Yi finished speaking, he put on a diving suit, jumped down with an oxygen tank on his back, the water temperature here is not high, and it is estimated that it is only ten degrees, but for his body, there is no difference between dozens of degrees and dozens of degrees below zero, and the depth of more than 100 meters will soon arrive, these big red guys saw strangers coming in and waving big clips, as if to warn him not to approach.
Instead of hurrying, he circled the seabed, where there were many ravines, but a large amount of sediment had accumulated, and it was a meeting of ocean currents, rich in nutrients, where many algae and crustaceans lived, providing a good source of food for many creatures.
Yang Yi turned around and found that there were not only emperor crabs here, but also some snow crabs and lobsters, and this time he could harvest a sum again, thinking of this, Yang Yi picked up a king crab weighing dozens of catties, and swam in the direction of the fishing boat, and when he was near the Zhushan, the crew who was preparing the crab pot saw Yang Yi holding a giant crab that was bigger than a basin and at least twenty catties came up, and couldn't help but cry out in surprise, Wu Bo hurriedly helped him get on the boat, urging others to prepare the crab pot.
"Prepare the shrimp pot too, there are lobsters below!" Yang Yi explained.
"Okay, have you heard it? Get the shrimp pots out too, this time it's a bumper harvest, it's all a little sharp, it's almost the same after finishing this batch!" Wu Bo cheered everyone on.
"Brother Sanpi, did you say that we came out this time and stabbed the crab nest, why did we catch all the crabs?"
"Crabs are not good? A crab tops hundreds of pounds of fish, I hope all of them are crabs, and more is better!"
"Yes, we caught three of the four famous crabs, coconut crabs, champagne crabs and this king crab, except for the Alaskan king crab on the North Pole side, we caught them all, if you put it on hold, you have to die of joy!"
"You are just used to being tricked, thinking about fishing for gold every day, don't forget the rules, that thing is rotten to the stomach, we are fishing boats, what we do is the work of fishing, don't talk nonsense, hurry up and work!"
Wu Bo emphasized again, urging everyone to hurry up and prepare crab pots and shrimp pots.
"Got it, Brother Sanpi, now the whole world knows that we have gold on our ship...... Don't talk about it, the big guy worked hard and did the job well!"
"That's it, maybe the boss invites us to try these thousands of big crabs, pick them up!"
"CAO, a dog's mouth can't spit out ivory!"
"Haha......"
Yang Yi changed his clothes and came out, added some spiritual water to the bait, threw out a few drops into the sea, gathered the neighbors, and watched everyone start to get out of the crab pot.
This kind of crab pot is a big guy, a cage is seventy or eighty pounds, sink them to the bottom of the sea one by one with a crane, Yang Yi looked at the position, and put a group of crab cages and shrimp pots not far away, and when all the boats are finished, they will turn back to the position they just started, waiting for the notice of the cage.
Yang Yi looked around with the dragon balls, and sure enough, many big guys entered the cage, the crab pot only had a small mouth, as long as you went in, don't think about coming out again, these emperor crabs are eating the bait with "ingredients" to eat the fragrance, Yang Yi saw that it was almost here, so he ordered everyone to prepare the cage.
The crane creaked and raised the crab pot, and there was an excited shout on the boat, at least seven or eight emperor crabs in this cage, they didn't know the fate they were going to face at this time, and they were still scrambling to eat in the cage.
These seven or eight emperor crabs are about seventy pounds, and the crab legs are at least five or six meters open. The small ones are also more than ten or twenty pounds, which are similar to basins. A group of crabs in the cage with teeth and claws, looking majestic and domineering, and then a special crew took them out and transported them to the processing cabin below, he planned to dispose of some whole crabs, part of them to be dismantled, and then a piece to bring back, no matter which method does not affect the value of this batch of goods.
"Look, there's a snow crab! we've caught a snow crab!" a crew member shouted.
Everyone leaned over to take a look, and sure enough, in addition to the two emperor crabs with teeth and claws, there were also a few smaller white crabs, which were what everyone called snow crabs.
This kind of snow crab is also known as Australian snow crab, Huaxia likes to call it crystal crab, the water area of survival and the king crab is roughly the same, like to live in the deep sea area with a water depth of 400 meters - 1200 meters, and the life span can live up to about 30 years, and the snow crab of the Maple Leaf Country is a relative.
This kind of snow crab has a characteristic, that is, after steaming, their shells will not turn red, or translucent white, so it is quite popular with foodies, but the annual catch of this crab is much higher than that of the king crab, and the price is lower than that of the king crab, which is about 201 catties. But the crew was naturally happy, after all, no one has too many good things.
The snow crab is a member of the crab family, and the king crab is still different, the scientific name of the king crab is the giant pseudo-coast crab, also known as the odd weight pseudo-back crab, Australian king crab, Australian giant crab. It belongs to the subphylum Crustacean of the phylum Arthropods, and is a distant relative of the coconut crab they caught earlier, and the coconut crab is closer to another domineering name "Alaskan king crab", but the evolutionary path is different and the living environment is different.
The king crab is the top grade in the seafood, it is the king of crabs, the average weight is 2 kg to 5 kg, it takes about ten years to grow before it weighs seven or eight pounds, it is the heaviest crab in the world, this time they caught the emperor crab, there are already seven or eight more than 70 pounds, I don't know how many years to live in this sea area to grow into such a big one.
Crab claws are the most delicious part of the emperor crab, and generally a crab claw girl is enough to eat, because it is full of meat. Its crab leg meat is the same, a crab leg is much thicker than a thumb, it can be said that this kind of crab is the most comfortable to eat, one is enough for several people to eat.
The shrimp pot was also collected, and a lot of Australian lobsters were also harvested, the lobsters in South Australia and Western Australia were basically the same, and the difference was that the lobster feet here were golden yellow, and the lobster feet in Western Australia were golden red, which looked a lot better in comparison. There is also a lobster in New Zealand, called Newdragon, which is a relative of Australian lobster, and the whole body is red, but the price is too different from that of Australian dragon.
During the cage collection, Prime Minister Gui Cheng finally called, and he also heard about Yang Yi, after all, the news was overwhelming, and they were all envious of the treasure of this Chinese fishing boat, and the old man was also more fashionable, and he quickly learned to gain knowledge from the Internet, so he called over.
Yang Yi probably talked about the treasure, and there was also the matter of inviting a warship to escort him, Gui Lao immediately said that he would set off to join him, and when the warship came, Yang Yi and they would have to return, if they didn't come over as soon as possible, their trip to Antarctica might be in vain.
