Chapter 338 Saury
In the past few days, when playing games on the ship, they have speculated whether the northern country wants to reward themselves, and how to reward themselves.
Xiao Peng guessed that there would be a reward for a domestic mobile phone in the North, and Wowen guessed that a Northern-made weapon would be rewarded for self-defense, and only Yang Meng guessed that it would be a medal.
Looking at it now, Yang Meng really guessed right.
In fact, since ancient times, after every war, there is a tradition of rewarding meritorious deeds, that is, rewarding real money, silver, land, etc.
But there were too many wars, and there were too many heroes, so this reward was not enough, and in the end the ancient Romans came up with a solution (in fact, there was no way to be poor), which was to award medals as an honor.
In modern times, the medal was carried forward by the former Soviet Union, and the countries with the same camp have this custom. Well, in fact, it is still the reason for poverty, and it is impossible to carry out material rewards on a large scale, so I have to use it instead.
Today, the only country that most often awards medals is the northern country。。。。。。
With a smile on his face, the Führer presented everyone on the Vladimir with a Flag Medal of the Third Class, even Vovan, the first Stars and Spanglers to receive this honor.
Vowen is ready for the history books!
As for Xiao Peng, he was awarded the Order of the National Flag of the Second Class and was awarded the title of 'National Hero'. This is a reward for Xiao Peng for risking himself in the torrential rain to save the North Korean people.
After the medal was awarded, the crowd let out deafening cheers. The general waved his hand to signal the crowd to be quiet, and said: "As we all know, our country is like a brother and sister to China, and this time our Chinese brothers saved so many of our compatriots in the wind and rain, this heroic act makes us sigh, here, I officially declare." The No. 3 pier of Cheongjin Port was renamed 'Beihua Friendship Wharf' to commemorate the heroic deeds of this Chinese Captain Xiao, and at the same time, Captain Xiao is also a good friend of our northern people, and he is always welcome to come to North Korea as a guest. ”
Xiao Peng listened to the words of the three fat generals, and was stunned, did he give himself a pass for the northern country?
It sounds good, but when you think about it, it's not a big deal, after all, this is the northern country, and it's too difficult to make money here now.
But with the Northland Pass, it is enough for Xiao Peng to blow for a few years. It's not something that everyone can get.
Xiao Peng and the others thanked the Führer, but the Führer waved his hand: "This is what you deserve, you unconditionally help our people in the north, this is a symbol of our friendship." ”
"Long live the friendship between the two countries, and the friendship between the two countries lasts forever!" Xiao Pengguang nodded, tsk, look at others, obviously a post-80s, the temperament of this high-ranking person in every move。。。。。。
The Führer took a group photo with everyone and then left.
This is different from what Xiao Peng imagined, in his imagination, the head of state must at least invite a few people to be guests, right? Why did he leave like this?
Or Yang Meng gave the answer: "Do you think he came to see us? ”
Xiao Peng then remembered that the Führer was an out-and-out basketball fan, and he once invited Jordan to the Northland, but it was unsuccessful, and finally he had to invite Rodman to the Northland.
Come to think of it, the head of state of the North may be the only head of state in the world who can't watch a game in the NBA.
It is said that the development of basketball in the north country is very good, and it has defeated the Chinese Olympic men's basketball team in three consecutive games.
The rules of basketball in their country are also peculiar. A dunk counts as three points, a three-point hollow into the net counts as four points, and if you score a goal in the last three seconds of the game, you get eight points! Of course, there are extra points and deductions, and if you don't score a free throw, you will be deducted one point. A player like O'Neal Jordan Jr. would definitely cry if he played according to the rules of Northland basketball.
"Xiao Peng, what are we going to do next?" Yang Meng asked Xiao Peng as he looked at the scattered crowd.
"What else can you do with those idiotic questions? Run. Xiao Peng glared at Yang Meng: "How many days do you want to stay here?"
As soon as Yang Meng heard that he might still have to stay in Qingjin City, he was so frightened that he ran back to the cabin directly, started the boat and left: "Xiao Peng, where are we going next?"
Xiao Peng thought for a while: "We must find a place to make supplies, we have been in Qingjin City for so long, there are no supplies, there are so many people on the ship, whether it is vegetables, fresh water or oil, we must replenish it." ”
"Where to add?" Yang Meng looked at the chart, looking for nearby ports.
Xiao Peng patted Yang Meng's head: "You still need to ask? Go to Otaru City! Have you forgotten that Lao Tzu is an honorary citizen there?"
When Yang Meng heard this, he looked at Xiao Peng with a frightened face: "Last time, we did so many things for the Japanese country, and we dared to go to Otaru City? ”
Xiao Peng smiled: "What are you afraid of? They have no reason to say let's go, let's see if there are any fish on the way, and go to Otaru City to sell fish." Walking, crossing the Wakoku Sea, aiming for Otaru City!"
Wowen took the medal he had just arrived and looked at it for a long time: "It's so stingy to give us a medal for such a hard time." ”
Xiao Peng smiled: "Worwen, be content, you are the first Stars and Stripes to receive this medal, if this matter is reported, I don't know what uproar it will cause." ”
Warven's expression was horrified, "No, I can't affect my career for this, right?" You know, Rodman almost drowned the saliva of the people of the Stars and Stripes because he went to the Northland.
Xiao Peng shrugged: "You are different from Rodman, he is here to make money, you are here to save people, your image will only improve, don't worry about that." ”
As soon as Xiao Peng finished speaking, Wang Hu ran in: "Boss, come out and see, let's meet the fish here." ”
"The fish finder didn't give an alarm。。。。。。 , Fierce Son, why did you turn off the fish finder?"
Yang Meng turned on the fish finder, and the fish finder also had a start time, Xiao Peng simply didn't wait, and went out to see, what kind of fish is it?
Xiao Peng came to the side of the ship, where many people had already gathered. Xiao Peng saw that there was a black pressure on the sea, but it was not a big fish, it was about 20 centimeters long, and the body of the fish was black and blue.
The concentration of so many fish is very dense, which is a means of survival for weak fish species as fish evolve.
Fish do not have well-developed brains and nerves, and they come together through simple evolutionary instincts to forage for food and avoid predators. Many small fish are tightly packed together to form large schools of fish to deter predators.
Xiao Peng saw what kind of fish was in the clear water, clapped his hands and said: "I just happened to be worried about what kind of fish to sell in the Japanese country, I just wanted to and found the thatched house, that's it, brothers, change the small hole net and prepare the net fish." ”
Wang Hu ran over: "Boss, what kind of fish is this? Can it be sold for money at such a small size?"
Xiao Peng explained with a smile: "You asked well, this fish is really not valuable, and we Chinese people rarely eat this kind of fish, but if you go to the Wa Kingdom, you can say that you can sell as much as you want, and people will directly snap it up." ”
"Is this fish so popular in the Wa country? It doesn't look like it's delicious. Wang Hu pouted.
Xiao Peng smiled even happier: "You're right, this fish is really not delicious, but you can't stand the Japanese people who love to eat it, right? But now is not the best season to eat this kind of fish, if in the past three months, you can see people eating this kind of fish anywhere in the Japanese country." ”
Wang Hu scratched his head: "Boss, what you said is so lively, you still haven't told me what kind of fish this is? ”
Xiao Peng nodded: "There is progress, these two kinds of fish are indeed very similar, in the division of fish, they belong to close relatives of the same order and different families, and the name of this fish is very domineering, it is called saury." ”
The saury is one of the few fish that has a common name in both the Chinese and Wa kingdoms. The name comes from its slender sword-like size.
However, in China, not many people eat this fish, but in the Wa country, this fish is very popular. There is even a proverb that says, 'As soon as saury is on the market, masseurs lose their jobs', and scientists have proven that the nutrients in saury are effective for adult diseases such as high blood pressure, myocardial infarction, and arteriosclerosis. And the amount of vitamin A in saury is sixteen times higher than that of beef. It is also very effective in treating night blindness.
The saury matures in autumn in the southern waters of the Wakoku and in the northern waters of the Wakoku in early summer. The school of saury that Xiao Peng saw was the school of saury that spawned in the inner bay with the current.
"Boss, the gillnets have been replaced. The crew reported to Xiao Peng.
"Go straight to the net!" Xiao Peng ordered.
Drift gillnets can be called the most lethal fishing nets, large drift gillnets are often composed of three-layer nets of large, medium and small nets, regardless of the big fish and small fish all fall into the net, if used excessively, it will cause ecological catastrophe, so countries have banned drift gillnet fishing.
But the most suitable way to catch saury is a drift gillnet, because the fish is too small.
However, Xiao Peng is not worried that he will cause an ecological catastrophe, all he has to do is to use the longitudinal sea technique to drive the fish into the net and close the net as quickly as possible, so that there will be no damage to the rest of the fish.
You must know that most people release gillnets for several days, and the fish will be wiped out in these days. Xiao Peng is different, put down and catch the fish, catch it and leave. Therefore, despite the use of drift gillnets, they do not cause ecological havoc like others.
But even then, there are bound to be a lot of fools who get caught in the nets. Who made the saury have too many natural predators?
At any time, there will be a lot of predators near the saury school, like squid, tuna, sharks, dolphins, etc., all like to feed on the saury, just like the yellow pollock that Xiao Peng just gave away, if you see the saury school, it will not hesitate to rush up to prey, the big fish eat the small fish, this is the eternal theorem of marine ecology.
However, although the saury has so many natural predators, it is not extinct, and the reason is simple: the saury is too vigourny: the way they hide from their natural predators is to breed desperately and build a super-large fish population, and the predators will naturally let the rest of the fish go when they are full. Large-scale saury can reach several thousand tons. You must know that the total annual catch of saury is measured in millions of tons.
The school of saury that Xiao Peng saw had a total amount of at least a few hundred tons.
