Chapter 67: Rewarding
"This thing, a little bit of venom, is enough to kill our boatload of people!" Rubbing the plank with seawater and putting it back into the cabin, Philippon said with a smile.
In fact, under the ocean, as on land, there are poisonous creatures everywhere, not only known, such as sea snakes, jellyfish, sea anemones, etc., but also many fish are also poisonous, some are poisonous in flesh, some are poisonous in eggs, some are poisonous in the spines of fins, some are poisonous in internal organs, some are poisonous in blood, and so on.
In China alone, there are more than 100 species of spiny poisonous fish, and the Atlantic Ocean is slightly more peaceful than the Pacific Ocean.
There are a lot of creatures that you don't know are poisonous, but it's actually poisonous.
For example, catfish, there are 3,000 species of catfish in the world, but in fact, more than half of them are poisonous.
There are a lot of poisonous fish left, not to mention the river gizzard, the thorn gizzard, which everyone has to know, others such as Zhanxing, Longteng, Du Fu, etc., these fish are poisonous, so if you don't know the marine life very well, it is really dangerous to go to the sea.
There are not too many sharks attacking people every year, except for the tiger shark, a marine maniac, few sharks will add humans to their diets, and the people who are attacked by sharks every year are much less than those who are killed by these marine poisons! So since he decided to go into the water, Jiang Hai listened very carefully.
After all, this is about his own life, and everyone knows that Jiang Hai has no characteristics, just a characteristic, regretting his life.
While introducing the boat, unconsciously, the land in the distance was already faintly visible, at this time Edward also stopped the boat, Jiang Hai saw his movements, and couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, is it useful to park the boat in this place where there is no village in front of the village and no store in the back?
"Come on, sort it!" Ignoring Jiang Hai's doubts, Edward said to Philemon, and when he heard Edward's words, Philemon immediately put on his clothes, put on gloves, and sorted them here.
Although the main goal of this trip is to check the seafood resources in the vicinity, some of the seafood in this tank can be eaten, some cannot be eaten, and all the seafood that cannot be eaten is thrown back into the sea, and what can be eaten is left, of course, the dead ones must also be thrown away, and they will not eat the fresh ones.
Listening to the words of these two people, Jiang Hai muttered a word of defeat in his heart, but he also sorted it out.
But his main target is those sea cucumbers and sea urchins, by the way, and crabs, these things, the first two people don't eat, so they can't really throw them away, for Jiang Hai, these things are all fun.
As for crabs, although Europeans and Americans eat them, it is really a waste for them to eat crabs, basically they only eat crabs, because the meat inside the legs is thick, as for the inside of the crab's body, they are not willing to eat it, and they have to admit that these losers should play.
At the moment, Jiang Hai didn't say much, he went to the sink first, picked out the crabs, sea cucumbers, and sea urchins, and saw Jiang Hai's movements, Edward and Philemon here also smiled, they didn't know what was delicious about these things.
Compared with these things picked by Jiang Hai, they are more picking, but not picking fish, but picking and throwing fish.
They don't eat all damselfish fish, and they can't eat them, and they can't tell which one is poisonous.
So all the clownfish, glitter, damselfly, blue denterchin, bright blue damselfish, etc., these in the domestic ornamental fish market, the valuable fish, were thrown away by them, and then there are some fish less than fifteen centimeters, also thrown away, including the grouper, for them, such a small fish is not necessary to eat.
But for Jiang Hai, it is really a waste, after all, such a big fish is actually a commercial fish that can be sold in China.
But here in Europe and the United States, it is still fish fry, vomiting blood, and I don't know when I can eat the grouper.
But fortunately, there are a lot of fish ready to be thrown away, but there are still a lot of fish left in the tank, these fish are basically more than 20 centimeters, there are cod, herring, and bonito that are common in Jiang Haijing, this fish is actually a kind of tuna, but it is the least valuable one, and red sea bream, this fish is more common in the offshore sea, more in the Pacific Ocean, slightly less in the Atlantic, it is considered a sea bass family, the taste is also good, and mullet, which is called mullet in China.
Generally speaking, there are three excellent products in caviar, salmon roe, sturgeon roe, and mullet roe, among which mullet refers to this kind of mullet, which is found in the Atlantic Ocean and the Pacific Ocean, but it belongs to temperate fish, if it were not for the marine climate here in Boston, it is not cold even in winter, it is estimated that these fish have already migrated south.
When picking these fish, they naturally threw away the fish they didn't want, and their actions also attracted the attention of several birds in the sky, and with the song of birds, these birds also flew straight down from the sky.
went to pick up the small fish that Edward and Philemon threw away, and Jiang Hai was startled when he saw this scene.
"Aren't these birds afraid of people?" Looking at the birds that were constantly wandering above the dinghy, Jiang Hai said a little strangely.
"Naturally, they are not afraid, and no one will arrest them here." Hearing Jiang Hai's words, Filipon also smiled and said.
"These seabirds are our seafarers' friends, not only can they help us relieve our boredom, but the most important thing is that where there are seabirds, it means that there is land, and where there is land, it means that there is fresh water and food, so that we can be guaranteed at sea, so our relationship with seabirds is still very good." Seeing Jiang Hai's puzzled expression, Edward also smiled and said, and then raised the height of the fish in the throw again, and threw it at these seabirds.
"And the American imperialists have a lot of feelings for seabirds, I think boss, you also know, our national bird, is the bald eagle, in our place, there are special feelings for Haiou, according to legend, in the middle of the world, European and American ladies like to put Haiou feathers on the hat, so Haiou was once endangered, and then it was the women of Boston who established an association to protect Haiou, and then when the western development of San Diego, Utah, there was a locust plague, but fortunately, Haiou flew over and ate all the locusts, That's what allowed the first immigrants to survive, so with us, these little guys are friends. After Edward finished patting, Philemon hurriedly spoke, it seems that this guy's mouth is indeed idle.
"And what kind of seabirds are these, Haiou?" After listening to their introduction, Jiang Hai was also very interested, picked up a small fish and threw it into the air, and soon this small fish was picked up by a seabird in the air and flew away.
"No, it's a puffin, Heou is bigger than them, and we have it in the woods of our manor, but I haven't seen it in a while." Hearing Jiang Hai's words, Filipmon introduced.
"No, there are still a few of them, you look at those few, obviously the bigger one, it's Haiou, the scientific name seems to be called Arctic Yanou." After Philemon finished speaking, Edward chuckled, pointed to the larger ones in this group of seabirds, and said to Jiang Hai with a smile, hearing his words, Jiang Hai also looked over, and sure enough, there were a few guys over there, which were bigger than the birds next to them.
These guys, compared to puffins, are much more domineering, when there are fish, they will go up to grab the first time, if they don't grab it, they will start to grab the fish in the mouths of other puffins, like robbers.
But in nature, the weak eat the strong, not to mention just robbing you of a piece of meat, even if you eat you, you have to endure it, this is the law of nature.
Jiang Hai is not a good man, and he is not willing to drive these Haiou away, but he has increased the intensity of throwing fish.
All of a sudden, it's really interesting to feed these guys, and Edward saw Jiang Hai's movements, and deliberately slowed down his movements, since Jiang Hai is willing to play, then leave some more for the boss.
"Chirp ......" But just when Jiang Hai was having fun, suddenly in the distant sky, there was a light and crisp chirp, with this chirp, the seabirds that were originally around the boat flew away in an instant, and instantly dispersed as birds and beasts.
After the birds flew away, Jiang Hai saw two small black dots high in the sky, chasing them one after the other.
With his eyesight, he could only see two birds, but it was not clear what they were.
"It's like an albatross and a sea eagle." At this time, Philemon, who was next to him, took out his own telescope and took a look, and said with some doubts, but when he said this, he didn't feel confident in himself, because the albatross is a bird in the south, and he used to see it often when he was running a boat in California, but in the North District, especially Boston, it is not common here, even if it can be seen, it is still in the summer, and now it is winter, and these birds probably go to the south for the winter.
After all, he is not a fisherman, so he can only be sure that the bird in the back should be a sea eagle, but the one in front is not clear.
"It's an albatross, except for this bird, no bird has a wingspan that much larger than a sea eagle, and it looks like there must be something going on with this bird, so it didn't go south for the winter." Compared to Philimon, Edward, who has dealt with the ocean for most of his life, has to understand much more, and when he swept it over, he said with certainty, and when the three of them watched, the two birds were like two sharp arrows, cutting through the sky and disappearing into the distance, since the birds had disappeared, the three of them also turned their eyes back.
Since there are no more seabirds to feed here, they are too lazy to throw them one by one, after all, it is already late, and the sun has fallen to the sea level by nearly a third, and several people have no time to rub it any longer, Jiang Hai and Philemon directly lifted the tank next to the unwanted fish, and poured it directly into the sea, and at this time a dorsal fin was also erected.
