182.First Trip to the South (2)
Grouper is a good thing, it is nutritious, the meat is delicate and white, similar to chicken, known as "sea chicken". Of course, it is certainly much more nutritious than chicken.
In addition, because of their size and appearance, they are also called sea carp, needless to say, grouper is much more valuable than carp, and the two sides are not the same grade food at all!
No matter where it is, grouper is a high-quality edible fish, especially in the southern region of China and Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan, diners are particularly keen on this fish, and it is promoted as one of the four famous fish in China.
Groupers are mostly found in tropical and temperate oceans, and prefer to inhabit rocky reefs, gravel, and coral reef bottoms near coastal islands.
Ao Muyang encountered groupers a few times when he was diving, but because they were all produced alone, he did not catch them, and the cost was too great to outweigh the losses.
Groupers are fish after all, and they are much more flexible than Ao Muyang in the sea, as long as they miss a hit, they will run away without a trace, so Ao Muyang didn't bother to catch them after they touched it.
But now that there is a long-term business on the door, he is interested.
He didn't go to sea two days after the National Day holiday, soaking in the water every day, nominally teasing the tiger to attract tourists, but in fact he was absorbing water and gas to strengthen Jindan.
Because he has raised hundreds of lobsters, he now consumes more gold drops, and Land Rover is in urgent need of splendid lobsters, so he releases more gold drops, and he needs to constantly absorb water and gas to replenish them.
In the past two days, Longtou Village has been like a large army crossing the border, and the whole village has been crushed, and the village seems to be full of people, and the beach is also full of people.
After the end of the National Day, the flow of people dropped sharply, and since October 8th, some people still come to see killer whales, but the number is much smaller.
Ao Muyang returned to the habit of letting the tiger come to the sea by the dock in the morning and evening to wander around a few times, and the other time he sailed out to sea to find grouper.
Domestic groupers mainly live in the South China Sea, so Ao Muyang decided to go south and sail a long voyage, of course, it is a long-distance voyage near the sea, but it is far, in fact, it is not deep into the ocean......
To fish for grouper, it is not necessary to go too deep into the sea, grouper is a warm temperate fish that prefers to survive in warm offshore waters.
However, their water layer rises and falls depending on the water temperature, generally preferring to live in water depths of 10 to 30 meters in spring and summer, and swimming to deeper waters of 40 to 80 meters in autumn and winter when the water temperature drops.
Ao Muyang asked Ao Daodao and others for their opinions, saying that he wanted to go south and go to the southern sea area to see the situation.
Ao Dao happily agreed: "You are the leader, you say it!"
Ao Wenchang was even more overjoyed: "That's great, I can finally stay away from my parents." ”
Ao Muyang was ready, he checked the date, the ten days in mid-October were all good weather, the autumn was high and cool, the sea breeze was relaxed, and it was a good day to go to sea.
He told Lu Zhizi, saying that he was not at home for the past few days, and if there was something to do, let her find Teacher Ao Zhisheng, Ao Zhisheng is very prestigious in the village, and most things can be settled.
Just as he was about to leave, Ao Wenchang suddenly said that he couldn't go.
Ao Muyang thought that his parents did not allow it, and frowned: "What's the matter with Uncle Qianyao? This is raising you like a little girl in the boudoir?"
Ao Wenchang squeaked and said, "No, no, the dragon's head, it's not my parents' business." Alas, it's something else, really, I have to take care of some personal matters. ”
"Really, do you want my brother to help?" asked Ao Muyang.
Ao Wenchang shook his head and sighed: "Alas, I can solve it myself, emotional matters ......"
Hearing this, Ao Muyang didn't talk much, he was a novice in feelings, and he really couldn't help with this favor.
Ao Daodao gave Ao Wenchang a punch: "Relationship problems? Okay, Xiucai, I didn't see it, you kid still has this ability, you can still hook up with a girl when you stay at home all day, amazing." ”
Ao Wenchang smiled bitterly: "Uncle Dao, don't joke with me." ”
Ao Daodao turned back to Ao Mubing and said: "Soldier, look at other people's talents, and then look at you like a bear, how old are you and don't have a daughter-in-law?"
Ao Mubing said with a smile: "Why do you want a daughter-in-law? Now marrying a daughter-in-law requires a bride price and a garage, and the total is more than one million, right? I will go to the county to find a woman, five hundred yuan a high-end goods, and I can find five thousand times for one million Made!"
"Two thousand, not five thousand. Ao Wenchang habitually corrected him.
Ao Mubing said: "It doesn't matter how many times he is, anyway, Lao Tzu can play chicken incompetence!"
Ao Qianpan beckoned: "Soldier, I didn't see that you still have this ability, come, borrow one to speak." ”
Ao Muyang said: "Okay, don't joke, Wenchang, you are busy with your business, then let's go out for a trip and go to sea for two or three days to see the situation." ”
Heading south from the pier, the fishing boats sail all the way.
In order to save money on fuel, Ao Muyang did not open a sea fishing boat this time.
The Red Ocean is located at the junction of two provinces, at the junction of the East China Sea and the Yellow Sea, and a little further south is the East China Sea, where the largest number of groupers in Chinese waters is the South China Sea, followed by the East China Sea.
It has entered autumn, Ao Muyang will drive to the sea at a depth of forty or fifty meters, and he will occasionally jump into the sea to play with tigers for a while, and then he will take the opportunity to see the situation in the sea.
Groupers are carnivorous and ferocious fish that prey on benthic crustaceans, various small fishes, and cephalopods in a raiding manner.
Ao Muyang knows all this, so he will pay special attention to those areas that are suitable for grouper life.
Because the grouper likes to be quiet and afraid of waves, warm and cold, and clear and turbid, whenever he finds that there is no undercurrent in the sea at a depth of forty or fifty meters, and the sea water is clear and lightly polluted, then he will pay special attention to it and look for small fish and cephalopod groups.
After driving for most of the day, he did not encounter a grouper, but a group of gray-and-white mixed with blue and white, flat in size, only the size of his palm.
These fish were horse-faced fish, and he came across a school of horse-faced fish.
The scientific name of the horse-faced fish is the green-fin pufferfish, and there are many common names, such as rubber fish, peeled fish, peeled fish, breaded fish and so on.
This fish is more common in the East China Sea, and its output is second only to that of hairtail fish, and it ranks second in the output of wild marine water in China.
Since the production is high, the natural price will not be high.
However, the horse noodle fish has no waste and is a very good fish, especially its fish liver is very large, accounting for three or four percent of its body weight, which is suitable for cod liver oil.
After discovering this school of fish, he surfaced and signaled Ao Dao and the others to prepare to go to the net.
"What fish?" asked Ao Mubing, spitting out his cigarette butt.
Ao Muyang said with a smile: "Horse noodle fish, go back to dry the fish, and make a fortune at the end of the year to do New Year's goods." ”
Horse noodle fish is not worth much, but if it is dried, the value is relatively high, because the meat is sweet, and the dried horse noodle fish is the same as a kind of dried horse fish with a similar name, which is a star product in the mainland barbecue stalls, starting from a minimum of three yuan, and even selling five or ten yuan for the larger ones.
