Chapter 70: Chance Under the Sea?

As the saying goes: "Rely on the mountains to eat the mountains, rely on the sea to eat the sea", of course, you have to eat seafood on this sea, but the fleet has only been out for half a day, and there is no net or rod fishing, so naturally there is no seafood to eat. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info

Therefore, Zhang Wei, the self-volunteering "chef", can use the ingredients that are the reserve food brought on board from the shore - shelf-stable cured meat, ham, canned food, of course, there are some fresh vegetables and fruits, and the cold storage in this large fishing boat is the most professional, which can keep the fish fresh, and naturally other foods can be kept fresh.

Just to save cold storage space, it is impossible to bring too much fresh food, everyone has to save some food, because in the next two or three months, you can only rely on these foods to recall the taste of the mainland.

Sister Zhang didn't expect Zhang Wei to go to sea so soon, she thought that Zhang Wei would work on the coast, but she didn't expect to be photographed and become a seafarer directly, and this guy agreed directly without thinking, and almost didn't kill Sister Zhang.

Although science and technology are now developed, but the fishing operation in the open sea is still full of dangers, the boat you sit on is very large and advanced, it does not mean that you are 100% safe, and life at sea is very bitter and boring, Sister Zhang is very reluctant Zhang Wei to do this, but this time it is Zhang Wei's turn to insist - he wants to find his "opportunity".

Helpless, Sister Zhang could only tell Zhang Wei how to pay attention to safety, she bought Zhang Wei a satellite phone, and she could call her for help before she might encounter danger, even if she was bankrupt, she would find a way to rescue.

In addition, she also made a lot of food for Zhang Wei, what seaweed rice balls, what sweet cakes and preserves, compared to her sister, she is more like a loving mother who "closes her seams before leaving, and is afraid of returning late".

Zhang Wei naturally couldn't share these snacks with others - he had to eat them secretly when he was alone at night.

He is now making a dish of "sea cucumber tofu ham", and the tangy aroma hooks the crew to the stomach and the index finger is moving - they were originally prepared to endure hardships on this trip, who knew that the captain actually recruited a super chef?

Even the captain Li Zhongguo looked at the strong back of the spoon with a surprised expression, and it felt like a wild beast cooking delicacies with the most exquisite methods.

There are naturally special chefs who go to sea with the ship, but at this moment, the chef who looks to be in his thirties is like a primary school student, watching Zhang Wei's movements woodenly and staying there.

Soon, the dish was fried and served to the table, and everyone looked at me, I looked at you, and then unceremoniously competed with each other - everyone was a good brother who had worked together for many years, and it was better to forget it in front of the food.

Except for a few people who were still on duty in the engine room and sonar operation room, more than 10 people on the scene quickly wiped out a plate of food, and everyone stuffed the dish into their mouths without caring about it - it was so delicious!

It's even more appealing than the "glowing dishes" in the anime!

Especially the chef who accompanied the ship, he wanted to kneel for Zhang Wei - he really wanted to apprentice! With this craft, still get on a fart boat? Is it good that a senior chef is paid well?

He really can't figure out why a "master" like Zhang Wei would go to sea, he is a cook, he studied in the "New South" cooking school for 3 years, and then traveled to many places and tasted many so-called "famous dishes", but there is really no dish that Zhang Wei cooks is delicious.

The sea cucumber that QQ bounces will melt in your mouth; The thinly sliced ham is fragrant on the lips and teeth; The tofu that combines the essence of sea cucumber and ham makes you want to swallow it all together!

It's delicious!

"Hey, hey, you guys keep a little, I haven't eaten yet!" Zhang Wei just turned around, the plate was gone, and there was a guy staring at the soup on the plate, as if he wanted to lick the plate.

"There are still a few people on duty, and I have to leave a little for others." Zhang Wei said speechlessly, he knew that the food he made was delicious, but it wasn't so exaggerated, right?

How did he know that these people go to sea all year round, and they don't eat much food on the shore, and he is definitely a master cook, and the crew naturally favor the dishes he cooks more.

"Hahaha! Lao Li, this time you have picked up a treasure! A middle-aged man about the same age as Li Zhongguo complimented, "This is called Koufu, right?" Hehe, young man, if you have anything to do on the ship in the future, just ask me for it, and you won't have to do the work on the ship in the future, just be in charge of our food, how about it? ”

This man is the captain Li Zhongguo's fleet partner, and he is also an old fisherman, who is responsible for the overall dispatch on the ship.

Of course, Zhang Wei is happy to be idle, this is the lightest job on the ship.

Then, the original ship-accompanying chef posted it over, and wanted to apprentice with a dead face, Zhang Wei didn't want to teach, as long as he was willing to let him do it on the side.

In this way, Zhang Wei conquered everyone with only one dish, and it can only be said that the landlord of his sister's new store must be an amazing "kitchen god", because Zhang Wei's craftsmanship is completely copied from the people's family.

………………

Life at sea is boring, very boring, and the deeper you go into the open sea, the more boring you feel.

After a few days of sailing, the crew's spirits were not as good as they had been at the beginning.

At first, everyone still talked and laughed, talked about everything, and it was quite lively, but after nearly a week, everyone found that they had nothing to say - even the things like Widow Li at the entrance of the village stealing a man, her own baby being admitted to a good university, and killing a gecko with two heads when she was a child, had been said three or four times, and it was repeated too much, and it seemed boring.

The bored crew could only watch the dishes and listen to the songs, because the scheduled fishing spot would not arrive in a few more days.

In the past few days, Zhang Wei has gained a lot -- under the "copy eye," he has learned about the operation of the ship, the use of various equipment, the readings of various instruments, and even a few samples of the old captain's pressing the bottom of the box -- the sextant, reading the starry sky positioning chart, and predicting the weather.

The terrifying learning talent made his "crew level" quickly full, and he now even has the ability to pilot a ship alone.

The ship's power engine is a high-power steam turbine, and the ship has two chief engineers, two of whom take turns on duty, and Zhang Wei also takes turns to deliver meals to the two, and has taken this opportunity to learn a lot about the knowledge of the engine - one of the chief engineers actually has a master's degree, which makes Zhang Wei really surprised.

The first time he officially set foot in the field of machinery, it was still a complex field of kinetic energy, but Zhang Wei's learning progress was not much slower than when he learned flower arrangement, especially the ability to draw inferences, and in the end he asked questions that even master's students couldn't answer, which made people blush, thinking that Zhang Wei had been pretending to be a pig and eating a tiger - he was testing his knowledge!

Zhang Wei is what kind of "pretending to be a pig and eating a tiger", he is a serious scumbag, a typical negative textbook in the class when he was in school, and the teachers of the whole grade recognized as "waste", "stinky salted fish", "10,000-year-old crane tail", "human stepping stone".

In short, with countless shameful nicknames, he was admitted to a private pheasant college with the second-to-last "excellent score" in the class in the college entrance examination.

But now, Zhang Wei, a university scumbag, has asked a "scholar" who doesn't know where to go higher than him, and he has really turned over.

As the saying goes, "invisible pretending is the most deadly", after he "subdued" a chef brother, he subdued a "master brother".

At this point, if the captain Li Zhongguo is the most prestigious person on this ship, then Zhang Wei is the "most popular" person.

He didn't use the "rioters" this time, and he also achieved the "achievement" of "being loved by everyone", which made him feel quite good.

………………

A week later, one evening, the fleet finally arrived near the predetermined location, where many ships had been sunk, and even warships were sunk here during World War II, so there are countless coral reefs attached to the hull to grow, and on this basis a small ecological chain has been formed, so there are many kinds of fish living here all year round, and there are many kinds of fish, which is a rare natural fishing ground and sea treasure.

The crew began to get busy, and the three fishing boats scattered and cruined around a large area of the sea to begin searching for fish.

As the sun sets and the sky gets late, the fishing lights on the boat are turned on, because many marine fish are phototaxis, and night fishing often yields a big catch.

The three boats all detected the activity of fish in the deep water, and the three boats circled around and gradually closed the "encirclement", and the fish trap lights and some special fish trap sound waves at the bottom of the boat were played, so that the fish had signs of floating upward.

After all, this is a deep water area, and the water depth can reach more than 1,000 meters, and of course the net cannot reach the bottom of the sea, so the fish can only be allowed to swim upstream, and when they enter the range of the fishing net fenced by three boats, they will directly trawl and fish.

…………

"There's a movement, good fellow, there are so many fish this time!" In the ultrasonic monitoring room, the operator pointed to the many small green dots that lit up on the screen and gradually floated up, and said to the captain with an excited face.

A small green dot represents a school of fish.

Zhang Wei is also beside him, the people in this fleet are very good, and he is happy for them to catch fish.

The captain's always serious face also showed a smile, and it seemed that the first trip after the fishing moratorium, they would definitely return with a full load.

"Zizi!"

At this moment, suddenly, the picture on the ultrasound display suddenly shook a little, but quickly returned to normal, but the "green dots" representing the schools of fish no longer swam towards them, but seemed to be frightened by something, and scattered in all directions.

"What's the situation?" Even the experienced captain was a little confused, he frowned, this situation could not happen unless a warship dropped a depth charge down.

As if to test his guess, after more than twenty seconds, the calm sea suddenly rose and fell, and the hull of the ship tilted to the right, shaking several times before it stopped.

"This ...... It's like, Haiti earthquake, Captain! The operator stammered a little, and the ultrasonic display recorded the decibel level of the background noise from the bottom of the sea when the fish had just dispersed, either an earthquake in Haiti or an undersea volcano eruption.

However, geologists have long verified that there is no submarine volcanic belt under this sea area, and there can be no volcanic eruption, so it can only be an earthquake.

It takes time for seismic waves to travel through seawater, so the "tremor" on the ship is a little "delayed" compared to the reaction of the fish.

"Rely on your mother!" The captain scolded a swear word fiercely, which is also too depressing, how can it be so unlucky? If there is no earthquake in the morning or no earthquake in the evening, but at this time there is an earthquake? Just when he was about to close the net, there was an earthquake?

Damn, I didn't burn incense when I went out, I was unlucky!

Thinking of this, the captain was stunned, and their fleet did not burn incense or worship God before going to sea.

The vigorous "breaking of the four olds" a few decades ago, emphasizing that "man will conquer the sky", and whoever worships God is imprisoned has also affected the coastal areas.

In the past, people had to worship the Sea Dragon King and Mazu before going to sea, but since then, no one has worshipped.

Shaking his head, the captain put aside these strange thoughts that had arisen from his anger: "Turn on the satellite communication, ask the public channel, and see if the State Oceanic Administration or any international organization has measured the magnitude of the earthquake just now." ”

Of course, the technology of his fleet could not detect the earthquake level just now, but he was unwilling to give up like this, and walked for more than half a month to get here, but the first battle was not successful, and he didn't catch a single fish, so he didn't want to just leave.

But judging from the degree of shaking of the ship's hull just now, it should not be a small earthquake.

………………

Ten minutes later, the fishing boat received a reply: no seismic waves had been detected at the location of the GPS location they had provided.

"It's impossible." The captain felt that there was really something evil today, the fish were frightened, the hull was rolling, these are all facts, except for the force of nature such as earthquakes, what else can cause such a big movement?

Zhang Wei, who was on the side, also had a strange face, just when the "earthquake" just now, he clearly felt that his heartbeat suddenly accelerated a little, but it quickly returned to normal.

"Could it be that this is the opportunity I'm looking for?" Zhang Wei's eyes lit up, "This time it's so big?" ”
