1264.The First Fire (9/10)

Qin Shiou asked how it was, Sha Ke wiped his hands and said: "No problem, they are all good shrimp, but there is a mortality rate, judging from the results of spot checks, it can reach about five percent." ”

In fact, the result of his inquiry was just routine, he had already seen it through the Poseidon consciousness just now, the size and vitality of this batch of shrimp seedlings were no problem, the mortality problem was inevitable, five hundred small shrimp were crammed into a small box, how could there be no loss?

Nick Du was prepared for a long time, and after being cheated by Carter, he was much smarter and prepared 20,000 shrimp seedlings in advance, so that even if the loss rate reached 20%, he was not afraid.

Qin Shiou laughed when he heard his words, and said, "I'm not Carter, man, it's okay, since you brought twelve units of shrimp seedlings, then I will buy you twelve units, and the mortality rate is mine." ”

Nick Du was embarrassed and said, "How's that going to work?" It's 11 units, and I should be responsible for the dead shrimp seedlings. ”

A unit of shrimp fry is less than 20,000 yuan, which is a small amount of money for Qin Shiou, he patted Nick Du on the shoulder, and then asked the fishermen to deliver the fry to the farm.

Sanders has checked that he does not carry infectious bacteria, and he can start it.

The fishermen worked, Qin Shiou took Nick Du into the room to drink tea, Nick Du shook his head and said You can take me to visit the fishing grounds.

The area of Daqin's fishing ground is too large, and it is definitely not possible to walk, Qin Shiou drove out of the ATV, and Nick sighed: "Shet, you are the owner of the fisherman, I can only say that I am a fish farmer!" ”

Qin Shiou smiled: "What is this? The area of Mahon Bay is not small, and you can expand and dominate Mahon Bay in the future. Isn't the area of the farm also raised? ”

Nick looked forward to it, then got into the car and spun around the fishing grounds.

The resources of Daqin's fishery lie in the water. Nothing could be seen from land, but even what could be seen on land was enough to surprise Nick.

Two sprawling marinas. A vast kelp plantation field, with an airport, grape plantations, farmland, its own farm, and coffee huts, beer huts, and so on.

After reading it, he sighed with emotion: "It's like a small seaside city, Qin, you are too rich." ”

Later, Winnie came back with the child, Qin Shiou introduced them, and Nick Du whispered: "Man, you also have a beautiful and capable wife and a lovely child, let's be honest." I can't help but be jealous of you. ”

In the evening, Qin Shiou entertained Nick naturally as a specialty of Daqin Fishery, and there happened to be some catches in the freezer that had just been caught yesterday and today, he picked a turbot and a haddock to barbecue, and took some lobsters and crabs to steam.

Qin Shiou rarely entertained guests with haddock, this kind of fish was not precious enough, but Nick chose this kind of fish, so he had to roast it for him to taste.

"Unfortunately, I don't have any shellfish here, otherwise it would have been perfect. Isn't it? Qin Shiou said with a smile while pouring beer for Nick.

Nick cut a slice of roasted haddock and ate it, and when he ate it, he immediately raised his eyebrows and exclaimed, "Awesome fish!" I'm glad I decided to take 100,000 haddock from you. This guy is amazing! ”

Among cod, haddock is not as valuable as Atlantic cod, but for ordinary fisheries. Farming haddock is more suitable than farming Atlantic cod.

This is because haddock is not a benthic fish that swims long distances. Regional migrations within a year are uncommon, and at best they move over short and medium distances in search of food.

Atlantic cod are much more athletic, and unless the Daqin fishery is large enough and the food is abundant and attractive enough, it will migrate seasonally according to changes in water temperature, food availability and breeding grounds, swimming in groups with warm currents as it migrates.

In addition, Atlantic cod prefers low temperatures due to the presence of antifreeze proteins in their blood, with a normal survival temperature of 2-11°C, but they also operate in waters below zero degrees Celsius.

Nick's Mahon Bay, where he is based, has a warmer water temperature, and after all, he mainly farms shrimp in a warmer environment, so it will be difficult for him to raise Atlantic cod, but haddock is a good choice.

Qin Shiou said no problem, it's ready for you, just eat and drink enough tonight and take it away tomorrow.

Nick took a sip of beer and shook his head, saying, "Man, your food is top-notch, but the beer tastes average." If I had a fishery as big as yours, I would definitely start my own small beer workshop and brew some good wine to drink. ”

The fishermen also said this before, but Qin Shiou didn't know much about the beer workshop, and the fishing ground had always had trouble, so the topic was delayed.

This time Nick mentioned it again, and he was obsessed, thinking that it would be good to build a garden and start a small beer workshop in the future.

There is a shiny iodine-tungsten lamp overhead, and there are few mosquitoes and flies on the seaside, because there is no stagnant water is living water, so that occasionally some flying insects appear, only casting mottled shadows, but not annoying.

The beach was wet and cool at night, the sea breeze was soft, and the waves crashed against the beach, and Nick Du felt very comfortable even though he had his own fishing grounds.

Qin Shiou frequently added vegetables, and Nick and the fishermen he brought to work ate until they were full, and when they finally parted, they took his hand and said: "Qin, Hiccup, you are different from Carter, oh my God, he is just a clown compared to you, I am so happy to drink here with you today, I hope I will have the opportunity to come to you here in the future." ”

"There's going to be a chance." Qin Shiou said with a smile, although he doesn't like vassal elegance, he likes to make friends very much, and as long as people with a temper come to the fishing ground, they can get his warm hospitality.

The next day, after the fishermen had caught 10,000 haddock fry and sent them to the transport ship, as well as some dried seaweed from the fishing grounds, Nick led the team back.

Qin Shiou is a real person, after he sells the fish, he doesn't care, but provides after-sales, and these seaweeds and aquatic plants are after-sales work.

Nick Doo's fishery has a feed processor, and as long as you go back and process the seaweeds, you can leave the haddock fry behind.

When Winnie came back in the evening, Qin Shiou saw that she was a little worried, so he went over and hugged her and asked, "What's the matter, have you encountered any trouble again?" ”

Winnie shook her head, nodded again, and said, "It's not a trouble, isn't it the three fires of the new official?" I have to think about how my fire is going to burn, I want to burn it financially, but I don't have much clue. ”

The town's economy used to rely on fishing, but then the Newfoundland fishing grounds almost went bankrupt and the town's economy went out of business. Now it mainly depends on two aspects, the tax revenue of Daqin Fishery and the tourism industry.

Qin Shiou patted his chest and said confidently: "Leave this to me, I'll help you do it properly!" (To be continued......)
