Chapter 54, red eyes

"Everyone be careful, this net must be raised quickly, so that the sea net will not be bitten off."

"The puffer fish has to be fed in a freshwater pool, and the toxins in the dead blood will enter the meat, and it will be terrible to go back."

"You should also be careful not to let the puffer fish bite you."

Zhang Zhide commanded the people on the four fishing boats through the walkie-talkie, he had caught puffer fish two or three times, so he was very experienced, and immediately told the crew about the precautions related to the place to avoid everyone making mistakes.

Lin Fan was also a little nervous, because he knew the value of the sea pufferfish, so his spiritual power gushed out frantically, enveloping all the surrounding sea areas, and he was just able to observe the movements of the group of sea puffer fish under the surface of the sea.

He found that there were more adults in this group of puffer fish, most of them were about ten catties to dozens of catties, and only about one-third of the puffer porpoises were smaller, only a few catties.

The deep-sea coarse net used this time is aimed at those big fish that are more than ten catties old, so after the four fishing boats come up from all sides, the entire puffer fish group is in the net, except for those small puffer fish under ten catties that drill out of the net, the other two-thirds of the sea puffer fish are all netted.

Sure enough, the pufferfish's teeth were sharp, and when they found themselves caught in the nets, they bit into those nets one after another. It's just that these nets are made of special materials, which are very soft to the touch, but in fact very tough.

Although the teeth of the puffer fish can leave marks on the thick web, it is not possible to bite the net cable in a short time. At this time, the four fishing boats began to collect their nets at the same time, and it was the fastest way to collect the nets, pulling the nets directly to the deck.

At this time, Wang Biao and Zhou Xiaolin were also nervously paying attention to the progress, at the beginning Wang Biao didn't know the value of the puffer fish, but after listening to Zhou Xiaolin, his eyes were about to light up, because he knew that this net might be tens of millions of income.

"Pay attention, get up the net." Zhang Zhide shouted loudly, reminding everyone.

"Wow-"

With the sound of the water, the nets of the four fishing boats were pulled out of the sea, and each of them caught a large bag of pufferfish, and quickly fell to the top of the deck. Despite the quick movements, each of the four nets had some traces of being bitten by puffer fish, and even a few places were bitten off, allowing a few puffer fish to fall into the sea and escape.

At this time, Lin Fan saw the legendary puffer fish and found that their bodies were cylindrical, with round bodies, blunt and rounded fronts, and tapering tails. The body length is about 100~300mm, and the large can reach more than 600mm.

The puffer fish snout is short, round and blunt; The mouth is small, end-located, and transversely lobed. The upper and lower jaws each have two plate-like incisors with a distinct median seam. The lip is well developed, and the ends of the lower lip are curved upwards on the outside of the upper lip.

The puffer fish has small eyes and small gill holes, which are arc-shaped fissures, located in front of the pectoral fins, and densely covered with small spines on the body surface. dorsal fin very posterior, opposite anal fin; no pelvic fins; The posterior end of the caudal fin is flattened. body dorsal grey-brown, slightly yellowish-brown on the sides, ventral surface white; The markings on the dorsal side of the body vary depending on the species.

The muscles of the puffer fish are as white as frost, the meat is delicious, tender and delicious, high in protein and rich in nutrients. Only the liver, gonads and blood contain toxins, which can only be eaten after treatment. After pickling, it is commonly known as "black wolf fish". The ovaries can be used to produce tetrodotoxin crystals for medicinal purposes.

Japan, North Korea and China in Asia are very fond of eating pufferfish; Anyone who has tasted it praises: "If you don't eat pufferfish, you don't know the taste of fish." "Eating pufferfish meat, in addition to tasting its deliciousness, also has the functions of lowering blood pressure, treating soreness in the waist and legs, and restoring energy.

"Wow, this is a pufferfish, it looks so cute." Wang Yuyan shouted beside her.

"yes, why do I feel a little like a dolphin? Are they the same kind? Hong Yan asked puzzled.

"The puffer fish is not the same as the dolphin, the puffer fish is actually a type of puffer fish, although it lives in the sea, but it is a thin sea, so it is also a type of puffer fish, and dolphins are small to medium size cetaceans.

The largest puffer fish is no more than ten meters long, and the heaviest is only a hundred catties; However, dolphins are about 1.5-10 meters long and weigh 50 kg to 7,000 kg, which is much larger than that of puffer fish.

Most dolphins have a prominent head characteristic, with a raised forehead due to lenticular fat, which helps to gather echolocation and foraging sounds.

Some dolphins have a forehead but a short beak with a raised forehead that outlines only a square head, while most dolphins have a sleek and smooth body shape with hooked curved dorsal fins; Some dolphins have striking colourful patterns on their bodies, while others have the same colourful colours. ”

Zhou Xiaolin explained to her the difference between puffer fish and dolphins, and the others also listened carefully.

"Lin Fan, why don't you get some puffer fish meat for us to taste. I've heard that it's expensive, but we haven't tasted it yet. Gao Xiao asked Lin Fan beside him.

"Forget it, puffer fish are poisonous. Without a professional cook, I'm afraid that no one will dare to eat the puffer fish that I make, and it will be terrible if it is poisonous. Lin Fan hadn't opened his mouth yet, and Zhou Xiaolin had already helped him refuse.

"If you want to taste the taste of this puffer fish, after returning to Dongzhou, I invite you to Zheng's Seafood Restaurant, they have professional puffer fish chefs, and everyone can eat the puffer fish meat with confidence."

Lin Fan smiled and said to Wei Jiacheng and Gao Xiao that now both of them have shown kindness, including Zeng Xiaotong, so Lin Fan is also willing to befriend them, and maybe he can do Zeng Xiaotong's father a big favor.

"Okay, then it's decided, we'll call you in two days after we go back, and we'll definitely go at your invitation." Gao Xiao said with a smile, and Wei Jiacheng also nodded with a smile.

Everyone was busy processing the puffer fish on the deck, getting them out one by one, cleaning them up, weighing them, and then putting them into the freshwater pool to feed. This freshwater pond is not the one where the crew uses water, but is specially designed to feed some fish that are valuable alive, but most of them are saltwater pools, and only the puffer fish need freshwater pools.

"Boss, according to statistics, the sea puffer fish on the four fishing boats have a total of more than 7,600 catties, and it is a lot worse to 10,000 catties. Zhang Zhide did not report to Lin Fan after the statistics, and then suggested that he go to the next net, wanting to make up a whole number of 10,000 catties.

"Uncle De, I just asked the control room, and they detected that there were no puffer fish in the sea below. Besides, you can't be too greedy, it's already a joy to be able to catch these puffer fish by accident.

By the way, you tell everyone that after you go back, you will give an extra 10,000 bonuses each, which is considered to be a hard work for everyone today. Lin Fan had already scanned the sea below with his spiritual power, so he shook his head and said to Zhang Zhide.

"yes, I'm too greedy. The two times we went to sea, we caught more fish than before, so what is there not to be satisfied with? If you think about it, sometimes you went to sea for a year, and you didn't catch as much fish as you did in these two trips.

Or boss, your luck, we went to sea three times together, these three times the catch is very good, it seems that the boss is hit with water, should eat this bowl of rice. Zhang Zhide sighed that he has helped many bosses in the past 20 years, but none of the bosses have such good luck as Lin Fan.

"Uncle De, doesn't this depend on you, you are so experienced, with you in charge of my fishing boat, it is impossible to reap too much. By the way, when I go back, I'll see if there's a chance to get a large distant-water fishing boat, and when the time comes, let you be the captain of the ship and go to various seas around the world, I believe the harvest will be even greater. Lin Fan replied with a smile, which made Zhang Zhide very happy to hear it.

The crew members of the four fishing boats are also happy, because today there is another 10,000 yuan bonus, plus the previous ones, they have been out to sea for more than ten days, and their income is more than that of other crew members in a year, how can they not be happy.

And the harvest of these thousands of catties of sea puffer fish also made Zhu Zicai and Liu Bin even more red-eyed. After they checked the Internet with their mobile phones, they found that the puffer fish could be sold for 17,800 yuan a catty, and more than 7,000 catties was 145 million.

"Damn, these boats have too many catches, they can't be cheap like this, Lin Fan, kid." Zhu Zicai suddenly said viciously.

"Yes, plus those tuna, plum blossoms, ginseng, snails, jade red corals, groupers, etc., I'm afraid Lin Fan's boats are worth forty or fifty million Chinese dollars. You say, how do we do it? Liu Bin was also short of breath, and he was even more blushing at Lin Fan, so Zhu Zicai was moved as soon as he said it.

"This Lin Fan is just from an ordinary family, his hometown is in a poor mountainous area, and he has no background at all.

I suspect that the origin of his fishing boats may not be very legal, so he can first have his deep-sea fishing company seized, and then send fishery administration ships to intercept his fishing boats at sea, and detain his fishing boats on any charge.

Of course, they will be released after a few days, but by then all the catch on the fishing boat will be ours. ”

Zhu Zicai said while thinking about it, with wishful thinking, which made Liu Bin listen to it again and again. However, they didn't know that since Lin Fan learned that someone from Zhu Haifeng's subordinates and Liu Shibo's group was secretly investigating him, he specially sent an armed soldier to keep an eye on Zhu Zicai and Liu Bin after stealth, and recorded all their actions and remarks, and then passed them to Lin An'an, who chose to tell Lin Fan. >
