Chapter Forty-Eight: A Fruitful Catch

After Min Hang specified Yu You's correct course, he said quite strangely: "Brother Yu, the market for cod in the market is not good now, why do you want to catch cod?" We only have a ton of more than 10,000 on our side, is there a high demand for cod on the coast? ”

"Brother Min, I know that now because consumers have no confidence in cod, the domestic cod market is sluggish, but up and down, the domestic cod market will turn around sooner or later, and the results of my fishing this time are not intended to be supplied to domestic wholesalers, but to be exported!" Yu You's words made Min Hang's heart move, and he said secretly: "Brother Yu, it's not simple, such a big business opportunity has been told to me, aren't you afraid that I will seize the opportunity?" ”

Thinking of this, Min Hang said: "Brother Yu, to be honest, although I have not exported, but the funds are still sufficient, and I have many fishing boats, if you want to say that I specialize in catching cod, I must catch more than you, and then I export first, then the market is saturated, and the price will rebound, didn't Brother Yu think about this?" ”

"Haha, I'm telling you this, I just hope you can seize this opportunity, but the export of cod, there are many doorways, and contacting foreign businessmen is also a problem, even if you have a large number of cod, if you don't find a foreign businessman in time, it won't stink." Think about it before lobbying for it.

After some understanding, understand that Min Hang is a strong ship boss along the coast of Zhejiang Province, so if you cooperate with him, the number of cod in your hand will be doubled, Min Hang can not swim in the team that specializes in negotiating domestic and foreign business, to find the next home is too long, there are many procedures and the like, so troublesome is better to choose other sea fish, after all, the market of other sea fish in the domestic market is still very hot, there is no need to take care of one or the other.

"Oh, I see, Brother Yu did a good job of contacting buyers before going to sea? And the relevant procedures are also complete, um, I'm guessing that you even have a processing site, and tell me that you mean to let me cooperate with you? Cod offered? "Min Hang is also an old fritter in this industry, Yu You said so directly about the popularity of Pacific cod in foreign markets, which means that it is necessary to cooperate strongly.

Yu You nodded and said: "Let's talk about the detailed consultation when Brother Min is free, it's not too early, I think the crew on your ship is still thinking about unloading the full load of sea fish as soon as possible......"

"Then we'll talk about it next time, thank you Brother Yu, for showing me the way to go to sea next time."

"Each other, each other."

Min Hang returned to his fishing boat, Zhejiang 001, and the sea vessel 1000 followed the course it had pointed out. This time I went to sea to get acquainted with Min Hang, the boat boss in Jiangsu and Zhejiang, Yu You felt that this voyage was quite worthwhile, and the connections were very important at home and abroad, which was a potential wealth.

By assisting the fishing operations of the Minhang fleet, the crew of Hai Ship 1000 got the skills to practice, which laid the foundation for the next formal trawl fishing.

Two days later, Yu You changed course and the bow deviated from the 30-degree angle for two days, sailing at a constant speed of 10 knots, and sailing about 480 nautical miles in two days.

When preparing for dark, Yu You summoned the first mate on the ship, the captain of the 1st and 2nd teams, and the four of them discussed in the captain's room, at this moment the sea ship 1000 has stopped braking, because the next net is going to be really cast, so all the instruments must be re-checked, and let them get a certain degree of rest, after all, the two days of sailing, the diesel engine of the sea ship 1000 has not rested.

"Look, this is the first Pacific cod migratory feeding point pointed out to us by Boss Min, according to the seawater samples just taken, the plankton here is very rich, it may be the place where the two ocean currents converge, so the number of Pacific cod in this point is huge, it is not completely dark yet, and we will have a big fight after we are full of food and drink, do you have confidence?" Yu You pointed to the maritime map, combined with the previous investigation, and decided to induce Pacific cod here.

"Guaranteed to complete the mission!" The three of them replied in loud voices, Yu You nodded, and then said: "Lao Zhao, you take someone to overhaul the machinery on the ship, including the engine, trawl, winch, etc., all of them must be checked without omission, if you lose the chain in the process of trawling fishing, don't do it as a captain, and go to the company to work full-time as a security guard in the future." ”

Yu You has always been very serious about business, and there is nothing to do with it, and when it comes to business, there is no room for a little hippie smile.

After all, Zhao Zhongren was born in special forces, and there are also veterans who have done tank and armored vehicle maintenance under his command, and he is still proficient in the maintenance and maintenance of this kind of machinery, so he hurriedly issued a military order and said: "Mr. Yu, if there is a problem with the equipment I overhaul this time, my old Zhao will jump directly into the sea!" So as not to be embarrassed when you return to Hong Kong! ”

"Good! I hope you don't let me down! Brother Mao, your task is to prepare dinner and make a decent meal for our crew, by the way, there seems to be some wine on the ship, take it all out, but drink it in limited amounts, if you are drunk, then who will go fishing! "Yu You's boat is not completely forbidden to drink, it is appropriate to drink and celebrate when necessary, a group of big men, don't drink some alcohol to do such a big thing.

Li Amao smiled, looking like a drunk, his saliva was almost flowing out, the wine he brought this time was a good wine! He always thought that he would take it out to celebrate when he returned with a full load, but this time he tasted the taste of high-end baijiu first, and I heard that each bottle cost thousands.

Yu You is not stingy with his crew, and the liquor he brings is all high-quality liquor, which ordinary people can't afford to consume!

There is wine, meat and vegetables! Li Amao took out all his strength, made a decent banquet, more than ten people gathered together, Yu You in order to prevent the crew from getting drunk, only took out a bottle of liquor, about 500 ml, personally poured a full glass of liquor for each person, a bottle of liquor is gone, and then said: "Today we are officially fishing for the first time!" The time to assist Boss Min was just a drill, and now is the time to test you! After speaking, he did it first as a respect, and after a pause, he said: "Because I am ready to work, I just mean it, one cup per person, no more!" When we return to the beach, I will personally go to the five-star hotel and invite everyone to drink! When the time comes, the liquor will be enough! ”

Yu You's approach is more popular, so it has been warmly applauded by everyone, a cup is a cup, better than nothing, everyone is like a tea, savoring the taste of mellow wine on the tip of the tongue.

After drinking, everyone devoured it, these days because of Li Amao, the captain who is not inferior to the hotel chef, is in charge, and after comparing with Zhao Zhongren, not only is the second team not used to Zhao Zhongren's fried meal that is similar to the taste of fast food, but even the first team has some complaints.

In this way, Yu You listened to everyone's unanimous advice and solicited Li Amao's opinion, so whether it is single or double, Li Amao is in charge, of course, the person in charge of the fight is still on duty according to the single and double days, although Li Amao has worked hard, but he has not complained too much, as long as his comrades eat well, his hard work is worth it.

Yu You likes this kind of subordinate who doesn't care about the gain, and is still very interested in why this Li Amao can transfer from an ordinary soldier in the cooking class to a helicopter pilot in the tall army aviation army, maybe there is an inspiring history of struggle here?

Everything is ready, the night is getting dark, today's moon is particularly round, it seems to be opening the way for the sea ship 1000, the engine starts, all the equipment is trying to run, so as not to rush to open when needed, Yu You said through the radio: "Set sail!" All the bait lights on! ”

"Bang Bang-" When the high-wattage lure light is turned on, the Sea Wheel 1000 is like a huge sun, attracting Pacific cod that is feeding on small fish and shrimp on the sea surface.

In the biological chain of the sea, once the two currents meet and the plankton increases, the number of small fish and shrimp in the upper layer increases, and the fish in the middle of the pyramid are concentrated in one area.

The phototaxis of marine fish makes the Sea Wheel 1000 like a giant light bulb that attracts Pacific cod, which resembles a moth.

Yu You passed the seabed detection equipment in the ship, and you didn't need to look and perceive to know that the cod in the seabed was swimming towards this side, and the sea ship 1000 was improved, with trawl nets on both sides, which is why the sea ship 1000 will drive all the lights around the hull to attract the attention of the sea fish to the greatest extent.

As Yu You's broadcast sounded again, Zhao Zhongren and Li Amao led the team members on both sides to put down their respective trawls, and the two nets worked at the same time! Of course, the engines are separated, and the power is equal, so there will be no mechanical immobility.

Two nets trawling together, for the captain's ability is a test, this time Xiaobai did not go to sea with the boat, otherwise it may be easier to drive away the cod, those days are busy, Yu You generally goes to the beach to feed Xiaobai once in two or three days, after this time out to sea, I haven't been there for several days, I don't know if Xiaobai is okay.

Yu You's thoughts flew to the other end of the sea, Yu You had to pat his head, let Shen Bing drive the sea ship 1000, and went out of the operation room by himself to check the situation.

"Lao Zhao, how is the cod in this net?" Yu You asked the busy Zhao Zhongren, only to see him pointing not far away and saying, "The direction seems to have deviated, and many of the cod on our side have run out of the trawl range." ”

Yu You nodded, didn't say anything, ran to the other side, Li Amao saw Yu You's figure, and immediately said: "Mr. Yu, our situation here is good, and we have gained a lot!" ”

"It's all in range, aren't they?"

"Yes."

After Yu You got the actual situation, he returned to the operation room, combined with the data of the instrument, and sent out another broadcast, saying: "Brother Amao turn off the lure light on your side, Lao Zhao doesn't need to turn it off, I will adjust the direction!" ”

After speaking, Li Amao carried out the order, turned off the lure light, and did not turn off Zhao Zhongren's side, the number of cod gathered began to increase, Yu You turned the rudder, the trawl covered the cod that had just been attracted, after reaching the critical point, Yu You asked everyone to drag the cod up, with the operation of the winch and other machines, the cod of the two large nets were all fished up, through the lighting equipment on the boat, Yu You saw that each big net was full of cod, of course, it was also mixed with other marine life, These have to be sorted and cleaned up, and they are also sorted into cabins according to the size of the cod.

According to preliminary estimates, this night, Yu You fished a total of three times, with an interval of about 2 hours each time, and the operation time was about 1-2 hours at a time.

The number of Pacific cod has reached a staggering 150,000 catties! That's about 75 tons of Pacific cod! However, there may be a lot of hairtail fish, cuttlefish, squid, sea crabs, lobsters and other marine creatures, so the specific number also needs to be classified, the sea ship 1000 is from more than 8 o'clock in the evening to more than 8 o'clock in the morning, just this time period, in this area, Yu You caught 75 tons of seafood, it can be seen that the richness of the seafood at the intersection of the cold current and the warm current can be described as a fruitful catch!
