The Harvest is now a star in Sherdick, firstly because of their rescue feat during Storm Kraken 18, and the overwhelming media publicity has made the ship a famous hero ship throughout North America.

Then there's their catch, and now the fishermen of Scherdyk Harbour have spread the word of mouth about the large number of lobsters they caught on their two voyages.

In this way, when the Harvest entered the port, it attracted a large number of fishermen to stop and watch, although the fishermen and the Harvest on other ships at sea were competitors and did everything to grab resources.

But when they arrived at the port, they showed respect for the Harvest, and Shaq sailed all the way, and the fishing boats in the channel would get out of the way, allowing them to pass all the way to the dock.

Sometimes, when they meet the more sophisticated captains, they will whistle to them, and if there are fishermen standing on deck, they will take off their hats and wave when the Harvest passes by.

Qin Shiou was greatly emotional, and said: "It's too pretending, damn, they weren't like this when they followed us at sea." ”

"It's normal, Captain, to use our Newfoundland slang saying, 'At sea we are all money-makers, and on land we become civilized'. ”

The Harvest docked, Guy and Philip's assistants shook hands with Qin Shiou, and many of the fishermen who stayed at the dock came over, most of them had only heard the rumor that the Harvest could catch a large number of lobsters every time they went to sea, but they had not seen it.

Depressed the whole trip to the sea. When selling lobsters, Qin Shiou was a little cooler, and Guy's assistant told him that the price of lobsters could be raised by two yuan per pound.

The high sales of lobsters during Christmas and New Year's Day are now showing an impact on the market, and the number of lobsters is decreasing. The market supply has plummeted by 72% compared to previous years, and it is estimated that from the middle of this year, the lobster market will only rely on deep-sea lobsters.

Knowing that a pound of lobster can now be sold for 42 yuan, the fishermen were shocked, and Old Zach sighed: "What a crazy price, 42 yuan!" It's not a lobster, it's a bluefin tuna! ”

Qin Shiou has read the information in the newspaper. In the first two years, the price of lobster was only six or seven Canadian dollars a pound, even in good times, but now it has risen to 42 yuan all of a sudden. And the price is still rising, which is amazing.

Smoking guns and bulls take people to the ice cabin to put lobsters in incubators, and boxes of lobsters are hoisted out by the machine to weigh them, and then transported to the frozen transport truck. Box after box, and on and on.

The fishermen around him were dumbfounded, and someone asked in disbelief, "Hey, little captain, are all lobsters in these crates of yours?" ”

Qin Shiou nodded and said, "Yes, man, this time we were lucky, we ran into a lot of lobsters." ”

"God, it's just good luck! It's just a shit step, and the luck is so good! Someone said with a red eye.

The end result was 11,950 pounds of lobster. Sold for more than half a million dollars.

In addition to lobsters, more than 1,100 pounds of queen crabs, 550 pounds of coho salmon, and more than 2,000 pounds of Atlantic sailfish were also harvested. Sold for 100,000 yuan.

The onlookers didn't know how much Qin Shiou had sold, but they knew that this guy must have made a fortune, because it had been more than a month, and no one had been able to bring back more than 10,000 pounds of lobster at one time!

Lobsters used to be very cheap, so fishermen had little interest in catching them, and most fishermen in the Gulf of St. Lawrence still made money by catching them.

As a result, lobster prices began to rise a quarter ago. Almost all of them had red eyes and went out to sea to catch lobsters.

There are quite a few lobsters in the Bay of St. Lawrence. But there are too many people who come to share this cup of soup, and when it is distributed to everyone, the number of lobsters plummets a lot. Of course, because of the increase in the price of lobsters, the money made from lobster catching has not decreased, which is why fishermen are keen to grab lobsters.

However, no shrimp fishing boat under 1,000 tons can catch 10,000 pounds, that is, five tons of lobsters at a time, and the shrimp fishing boats above 1,000 tons have all gone to the deep sea, so Qin Shiou has created a small legend in Schedick this time.

The fish and shrimp were transported from the ice tank, and the bull and the bongs took the fishermen to start packing up the fishing boats.

Although it is said that the fish and shrimp are put into the ice tank, in fact, the fish and lobsters are not transported in a kind of cabin, and the fish are put in the cryogenic cabin, which is a real ice cabin. The lobster is put into the constant temperature cabin, which is used to place shrimp and crabs, and the shrimp and crabs need to be alive to sell at a high price, and the dead ones are worthless.

The harvest said that it was 200 tons, and this 200 tons was not a cargo capacity but a displacement volume, and the cargo capacity was actually only about 40 percent, 80 tons. The ratio of the two cabins is 4:1, the ice cabin can hold more than 60 tons, and the constant temperature cabin can hold 178 tons.

There is no doubt that when packing the fish tank, it is more comfortable to stay in the constant temperature cabin and the amount of labor is less. Every time the bull takes someone to clean up the ice cabin, he leaves the opportunity to clean up the thermostat for the smoking gun, and when the smoking gun picks people, he also picks older guys like Zach and Chalmo.

This has almost become an unspoken rule, and there is no need to say that the bull waved his hand and took the people directly into the ice cabin, and no one complained.

Qin Shiou appreciates this very much, these ten fishermen are a great team, otherwise he would not have given a high return to win them.

Taking Winnie and the dog with him, Qin Shiou went to the hotel first, preparing a steaming meal and waiting for the fishermen.

The fishermen were working, and the text message on the mobile phone at the cigarette gun sounded, and Winnie went to the bank to transfer the money to them, 170,000 yuan.

"Captain is so cool, phew, I like him!" Cigarette Gun held up his phone and laughed.

Normally, the captain does not settle the income of the crew so quickly, or even slowly, and generally the captain does not distribute the income to his subordinates at the end of a fishing season, but waits until the next fishing season begins.

This is the rule, because the money that the captain gives to the crew needs to be taxed, and he has to wait until the specific tax comes out and deduct the tax before he can give it to the crew.

Qin Shiou's side is to settle the fisherman immediately as soon as he gets the money, the tax? Needless to say, I'll pay for you, counting the head of my fishing ground, compared to the tens of millions of taxes in the fishing ground, their thousands of yuan are really not enough.

It's the kind of detail that often gets the fishermen the most affection, and who doesn't like to get their money early? Canadians often say that 'money is not their own if it doesn't go into their pocket', and they value money more than Chinese.

Qin Shiou sat down at the hotel here, and someone followed and asked directly: "Little Prince of Lobster, may I ask if your ship is still recruiting?" ”

Looking at a few fishermen, Qin Shiou smiled and said, "I'm sorry, guys, I have enough brothers under my command, twelve." ”

Hearing his words, the fishermen's faces were full of frustration, but one man with a fierce face said, "Little Prince of Lobster, are you interested in organizing a temporary fleet?" According to the rules, we pay you a tenth of the money. (To be continued)
