"Brother Peng, this thing is so delicious!" Xiaoqiu ran into the kitchen carrying a basket of oranges: "It's a pity that it's too troublesome to make." And the oranges are too small. Boss, do you think it's okay to make this thing out of grapefruit?"

Xiao Peng glanced at him: "The grapefruit peel is so thick, are you so steamed? If you can't steam it thoroughly, can it taste good? If you want to eat this thing, don't be afraid of trouble!"

Xiaoqiu nodded: "I'll do it again now, whoever wants to eat it will help me process oranges!"

When Nikita heard this, he hurriedly said, "I'll help you! ”

"Boss, do you want to eat it, come and help me cut oranges!" said Xiaoqiu with a smug face.

Xiao Peng gave him the middle finger: "Make me twenty, I'll eat it tonight!" Remember, don't put salt, it's a bit of a crab meat." ”

Xiao Qiu's smug expression froze on his face after hearing this, and he processed oranges in frustration------ he had just learned how to make a delicacy, and he forgot that Xiao Peng was the boss.

As soon as Xiao Peng wanted to educate Xiaoqiu, he heard Yang Meng's voice on the walkie-talkie: "Dear captain, come out and see the excitement!"

"Huh?" Xiao Peng pressed the call button: "Look, what's the excitement?"

"There's a fight outside!" Yang Meng said.

"Fighting?" Xiao Peng was stunned and hurriedly ran out of the cabin.

He thought it was a fight between the crew, but it turned out to be good, and everyone was lying on the side of the ship to watch the excitement.

"What are you doing?" Xiao Peng asked.

"Boss, come and see the excitement, it's a fight!" Seeing Xiao Peng coming, someone hurriedly greeted him, and gave Xiao Peng a place for Xiao Peng to take a look.

Xiao Peng was so angry that he almost scolded the street: "Do you really want to die? Who is allowed to get close to the side of the ship to watch the excitement when you have nothing to do? What is written in the safety manual on the ship? And it's in the North Pacific Ocean now, and the wave is almost a meter today! I think I can, right? Go back to the room, and everyone copy the safety rules a hundred times!"

"No! boss!" the crowd hung their heads in frustration.

"No, what, why don't you hurry up and copy it? I'm going to take you out alive one by one, and I'm going to bring you all back with all your mustaches and tails! I'm still worried when you're working, but it's good that you're going to die here? Go back and copy the safety manual!" Xiao Peng pointed in the direction of the cabin.

The fishermen looked at Xiao Peng's waist with one hand and pointed the way, and returned to the cabin with a sigh. There was applause next to him, and Xiao Peng saw that Yang Meng was looking at him with his head stretched out from the cockpit.

"What's going on, what's coming in?" Xiao Peng walked into the cockpit and asked Yang Meng.

Yang Meng pointed to Georgina, who was holding the telescope there: "The telescope is there, go see it yourself." ”

Xiao Peng glanced at Georgina, who was looking at the telescope with relish, or don't talk to her, he opened the closet, took out a telescope and looked at the sea in the distance, hey, it's lively enough, two fishing boats are playing 'bumper boats' there!

It was two crab boats, both of about the same tonnage, and the people on both sides of the boat were throwing stones at each other, and the two boats were still colliding with each other. What a hatred is that?

"Xiao, what's going on?" Georgina asked Xiao Peng as she put down her binoculars.

Xiao Peng smiled bitterly and shook his head: "The annual crab fishing season is from November to March of the next year, these two boats are stuck in time to come here to catch crabs, now it is more and more difficult to make a profit from fishing fishing, and the pressure is getting bigger and bigger, there is not so much politeness and politeness at sea, it is normal to have disputes over fishing grounds and places, the ocean looks big enough, but the places where crabs can be easily caged like this are also limited." However, it is normal for fishermen to curse each other, and it is relatively rare for the two boats to collide with each other. What a grudge this is!"

Georgina blinked, "I didn't see that the crew on your ship was stressed." ”

After hearing this, Xiao Peng smiled bitterly and said: "Miss, you have a good father, and you have never bothered about money, but do you know? Generally speaking, the income of the crew on the fishing boat is directly proportional to the amount of fish, and many crew members have no basic salary and only sales share!" There is also a need to calculate the cost, a trip to the sea, the oil cost will cost thousands of dollars, the distance is more, there are food and water and other supplies, here to catch crabs, everyone is used to using frozen trash fish, a kilogram costs one dollar, a trip down at least two thousand dollars of bait. In addition to the money to buy a fishing quota permit, plus various consumptions, it is at least 5,000 US dollars a week at sea. Coupled with the fisherman's commission, the cost of what equipment is consumed, it is extremely high. Every time you come out, how to catch the most fish as quickly as possible is what every captain has to consider, and every good fishing spot must be fought for------ no one wants to lose money, right?"

Nikita, who followed in, asked curiously, "How much knowledge is there in this crab pot?"

"Of course, if the bottom of the sea is too deep, there is no way to reach that depth without the crab pots. And every crab fishing boat has a big string of cages, and we can drag twenty or thirty nautical miles out of ten crab pots on our boat, but what about them? There are at least twenty or thirty cages in a row, and there are many strings of cages on one ship! That will occupy a lot of space. What if someone occupies a place and someone else comes back? There can only be disputes. Our boats are different from theirs, we can go to the deep sea to trawl fishing, but they can only go under cages in the shallow waters of the continental shelf. So in a place like this, it's all about not giving up an inch of land------ but it's still too much for them to collide like this! This is a game of death! Fierce son, don't you shout and persuade them?"

After hearing this, Yang Meng pointed ahead: "Boss, how can you persuade me? If we pass, they can turn around and hit us together, do you believe it or not?" Besides, look at the national flag on their ship. ”

Xiao Peng came back to his senses at this time, picked up the binoculars to observe it, and then showed a wry smile: "Yes, this is really lively." ”

After hearing this, the Nikita sisters took a closer look: "Is that a Turkish and Russian fishing boat?"

Xiao Peng answered Nikita's question: "Whether it is the Black Sea or the Mediterranean, the fishery resources are very poor now, Turkish fishermen generally go to the Atlantic Ocean to fish, of course, there are real ocean-going fishermen, go to the Indian Ocean, the Pacific Ocean, Africa and other places to fish, catch and sell on the spot, and then look for the next place, a bit like the feeling of a gypsy." We have a lot of such distant-water fishing boats in China, which go to South America, Africa and other places to fish, and it takes two or three years to go home once they go to sea. It's not easy to make money, is it?"

Georgina suddenly asked Xiao Peng a question: "I can understand that you said that Russian fishing boats and Turkish fishing boats collided with each other, this is a problem left over from history, but why can they join forces to collide with us in the past?"

Many countries in the world have war problems, the most famous is probably the Anglo-French War, which took 116 years for the two countries to decide the winner. Second, in fact, the real feud should be considered Turkey and Russia. At that time, Turkey was still called the Ottoman Empire, and Russia was still Tsarist Russia, and the two countries fought for 240 years. Many people today do not understand why Turkey is always looking for trouble with Russia in the international community, but in fact, this is the real problem left over from history----- the ancestors on both sides have broken their heads, and you still expect their descendants to get along amicably?

So it's not surprising that Russian and Turkish fishing boats have a dispute, but it's a bit inconceivable if they join forces to hit Xiao Peng.

Xiao Peng pointed to an LCD screen on the bridge, on the screen are blue bars and green bars: "Our current location belongs to the main fishing ground, where there are laws and regulations between trawlers and crab fishing boats, and now this time restricts trawlers from entering, do you see these green and blue bars here? This means that there are crab fishing gear here, and if the trawler is found to have entered the crab fishing area, it will be fined 25,000 US dollars." Unfortunately, our boat is just fishing for crabs and lobsters, and our identity is a trawler, so we can't operate here. ”

"No, you said you couldn't work here to be fined, but we didn't trawl here, we just passed by, isn't that okay?" asked Nikita.

Xiao Peng smiled: "Yes, yes, but it's better to be nosy, because trawlers and crab boats are natural enemies." Crab fishing boats wish all trawlers disappeared from this world. If we go over and pull the rack, the two ships will have to work together to deal with us. ”

"Why is that?" asked Nikita.

Xiao Peng explained with a smile: "How to say, the working method of this general trawler is to drag the fishing net at the stern, and at both ends of the net mouth are two pieces of 1,500-pound iron doors to open and sink to the bottom of the sea, and the boat drags the fishing net along the seabed, digging up everything along the way like plowing, and dragging it up together if it encounters a crab trap." This is actually a lose-lose thing, if the trawl net is dragged to the crab trap, it means that the net will be gone, and the trawl time is in vain, and for the crab fishing boat, this is even more unbearable, because it means that a string of crab traps are wasted. A string of professional crab traps like theirs costs about $10,000. Although there are hooks on the boat to deal with such situations to find broken crab pots, the success rate is not high------ after all, the seabed is too vast. ”

Nikita laughed after hearing this: "No wonder those crab fishing boats are so ruthless trawlers, this is a smashing of people's jobs!"

After hearing this, Xiao Peng said disdainfully: "Eighty percent of the crab pots lost every year are caused by the overlapping positions of crab pots arranged by different crab fishing boats. You see that the signs on this chart are densely packed, and it is strange if there is no problem. But all crab boats like to put the problem on the trawler. I don't know what they think. Mengzi, tell them that the sky is about to change, and if they still have to crash down, we won't wait for them to decide the winner!"
