Chapter 190: New Plans
Bei Hai looked at the fish corpses floating on the surface of the small lake, and his mind was a little muddy, and he didn't understand what was going on, why the fish that lived well in the space all had pigtails all night.
It's useless to stand on the edge of a small lake and scratch your ears and cheeks! Bei Hai now has a feeling that he doesn't know where to start. I can't think of it, but the dead fish on this small lake always have to be dealt with, if it weren't for floating on the lake like this, don't say it's evil or disgusting to others, even Bei Hai himself won't be comfortable looking at it, this is his own home.
Take out the plastic boat from the storage house, the length is about two and a half meters, the width is one meter, and it is not too heavy, Bei Hai directly put the small plastic boat on his head, and went to the lake to put the boat down.
Just as he was about to squat into the boat to catch the fish carcasses, Bei Hai's ears heard the voice of old Matt: "Hull! βγ
"Come in by yourself, I'm here in the lake!" Bei Hai listened to the loud roar and got on the boat. Although the boat is a little unstable, who is Bei Hai? At that time, it was no problem to stand on a surfboard, and this kind of small plastic boat was trivial.
When Matt came in his car, he saw dead fish on the lake as soon as he got out of the car: "How did you do this?" βγ
"I want to know too!" Bei Hai said while hooking the fish corpse that was now enough with the long rod net in his hand: "I will be like this when I wake up in the morning."
"One night?" Matt said as he approached the edge of the small lake, squatted down and looked at the few fish corpses thrown by Bei Hai on the shore: "It can't be poisoned, right?" After speaking, he shook his head and said: "Because it shouldn't be, don't say who is so boring here, just look at the appearance of this fish and it doesn't look like it has been poisoned."
After saying that, Matt broke off a small hard branch from the small bush beside him, and just like that, he turned up the dead fish carcass.
Bei Hai sits on a small plastic boat. Holding a long-pole net, sometimes as a penny and sometimes as a fishing tool, he scooped up the fish carcass and put it in the front compartment of the boat.
"You're going to New York?" Bei Hai hurriedly poured the dead fish in the net into the cabin.
"Hmmm! I'm ready to leave in the afternoon. Wait until the evening to get to New York," Matt said, paying attention to the dead fish in front of him, and said to Bei Hai.
"Then you must have entered New York very late, it's past midnight, right?" Bei Hai stopped what he was doing, glanced at Matt on the shore and asked.
Matt replied without raising his head: "I chose this time, and the cars in New York are not as good as ours." It's still good to drive on the road at night when there are fewer cars! βγ
Listening to Matt say this, Bei Hai also thinks that this is the reason, originally said that the family spent Christmas here, but the son of old Matt had something to do temporarily and couldn't come back, and Matt, who wanted his grandson, had to go over by himself.
"Hull, your fish seem to be dying of lack of oxygen," Matt looked at a few fish in a row and then said to Bei Hai, "Are you putting a bit of a large number of fish in the lake!" βγ
While talking to Matt, he looked into the lake, but soon made old Matt a little confused, as far as the density of the fish in the small lake was, it was impossible that the fish were too dense and caused too little oxygen in the water to cause a large area of fish to die.
"The fish looks like they're dying of lack of oxygen, but it's not like that, given the size of the lake and the condition it is in now," Matt was a little confused, and was already skeptical of the conclusion he had just made. Frowning and not understanding what was going on.
Bei Hai on the boat heard Matt's definition and stopped the penny in his hand: "You said it's a lack of oxygen?" βγ
"Looking at the dead fish on the shore seems to be hypoxic, but looking at the situation in the lake, I really can't make up my mind now, if you just look at these dead fish, there is a chance that the lake water is deprived of oxygen, but you don't have many fish in the lake," Matt said.
"It's not much, and I don't know what's going on!" Bei Hai shrugged his shoulders: "Some fish are alive and well, there is no problem at all, and now none of these fish are dead."
Bei Hai honestly said that he had encountered a situation, anyway, even if he didn't say it, Old Matt could see it.
"You'd better get a fishing expert to take a look?" Matt said to Bei Hai.
When Bei Hai heard this, he asked, "There are still experts here?" βγ
"Yes!" "From time to time, some experts who study marine life or fishery resources come here, and many of them are used to working with old fishermen. Although they all study marine fish, they are all fish, at least they know more than we know."
"Can you find it now?" Bei Hai hurriedly asked.
Matt glanced at Bei Hai: "Experts are usually professors and researchers at universities over there in Boston, how can they stay in Gloucester for a long time!" βγ
"Didn't you say it for nothing?" Bei Hai said to Matt, which was obviously about running after the horse. Wait for the experts to come and say, maybe these fish stink! Today, Bei Hai thought about digging these fish corpses and burying them in his own ground, not only to solve the problem of fish corpses, but also to use them as fertilizer.
Matt listened to Bei Hai's words and said, "Otherwise. You find a fish and put it on ice in a small plastic box and let me take it later. I'll stop by in the afternoon for a run, and I know an old fish researcher who asked him to take a look at it for you. Then sue sΓΉ what is going on with you".
"That's fine!" Bei Hai listened and nodded.
Matt looked at Bei Hai fishing for fish corpses and said to Bei Hai: "Is there a net bag at home?" βγ
"No more! You don't need to help, I'll go to the field and dig a pit and bury it later," Bei Hai said quickly.
When Matt heard this, he immediately stopped: "Don't be in a hurry to bury it, in case there is any harm to the soil if it is buried, it is better to wait for me to find an expert for you to analyze the results!" βγ
The old American farmers and herdsmen are very good at soil protection, and the old fisherman knows that he is afraid of the dead fish here in Bei Hai in case something will hurt the soil, and it is not a short time to live here.
Bei Hai didn't care at all when he heard it, and in Bei Hai's heart, he thought that these fish were used to mixing in high-end places, and they were not used to the outside environment, just like they had been living in the city and going to the toilet to make toilets.
But although he thought so in his head, on the surface, Bei Hai nodded and agreed: "That's it, I'll dig the pit first later, and I'll bury it when the news comes from you!" βγ
Although it was impossible to bury the fish, Old Matt still found a long pole and then put on half of the water in his net pocket, and helped Bei Hai salvage the fish corpse in the shallow water on the shore.
Moreover, these fish were still dead in a handful of pieces, and it took Bei Hai and Matt more than an hour to fish all the fish corpses together.
Next, the two began to fight together against a hoe to dig a pit in Beihai's field.
"It's wheat sowing season soon, why don't you add a little more machine? Are you not going to plant wheat? Matt, who was resisting the hoe, arrived in the field and asked Bei Hai a question before digging the realm.
Bei Hai said without thinking about it: "This year, I plan to find someone to help me plant it, and wait until I have money next year!" βγ What harvester plus seeder together at least 200,000 US dollars, don't look at the Americans' cheap cars, but this kind of agricultural machinery is really expensive, after saying that Bei Hai's mind has never been on farming, not to mention that agricultural machinery is not Bei Hai's concern even if there is much grain in the field.
Matt believed it when he heard it, nodded and began to work: "Yes! You've been under a lot of financial pressure this year! βγ
After chatting for a while, after digging two or three small pits, Matt asked Bei Hai with the handle of his hoe, "Captain, can we expand our manpower next fishing season?" βγ
Hearing this, Bei Hai looked at Matt a few times, and Mart was a little embarrassed.
"There is no need to increase the manpower on the new ship, but I promise that this year's ship will be better, and everyone will make better money," Bei Hai said with great confidence.
"I believe this!" Matt nodded, Matt's hope to expand the staff is to let his son come back from New York, not to mention earning his own salary, even if he earns half of his own, it is enough. However, he couldn't mention this matter to Bei Hai, because how many people on the ship did not have the final say, and it was only the twenty-year-old captain in front of him who had the final say.
"However, I still have a plan for this year, and I am not too mature to think about it now, and there are some things that have not been sorted out yet," Bei Hai said. (To be continued......)
