The Ministry of Fisheries attaches great importance to this fishery auction because it is a pilot project, and if it is successful, it can be promoted so that the fish farmers can make more money, so that there will be more people engaged in fish farming.

Therefore, this time it was Matthew King who came to preside over the auction, and the Minister of Canada personally put on the battle.

Sometimes Qin Shiou feels that the life of high-ranking officials in these countries is not very good, as the so-called 'life is like drinking water, cold and warm self-knowing', people from the outside world just see Matthew King commanding the entire Canadian fishing grounds, and a single order can open or close a number of fishing grounds, resulting in thousands of people losing their jobs or employment, but who knows, the pressure he is carrying?

Seeing Matthew Kim this time, after a year, Qin Shiou felt that Mr. Minister was more old, and the crow's feet at the corners of his eyes were much deeper.

In contrast, Qin Shiou's life is much better, like idle clouds and wild cranes, the fishing ground is a cornucopia, and he keeps making money for him.

And if he is short of money, he can go to the bottom of the sea to find a sunken ship, and now there is a golden ship in the salvage, once it is salvaged, his assets can be broken through again.

Matthew Kim usually has nothing to think about how Canada's fishing industry will develop, but what about Qin Shiou? He was thinking about what to eat tonight and where to go with his daughter tomorrow......

Matthew King didn't say anything to him after meeting, the two shook hands and separated, and Qin Shiou was then pulled into the crowd by Donald and his party, who were familiar with the fisherman.

There were a lot of people participating in the auction this time, and there had to be a small number of 200 people, and the venue was full. These people vaguely form two groups, one is dominated by the Gulf of St. Lawrence, and the other is around the North Atlantic.

After Qin Shiou arrived, Donald pulled him away, but then the fisherman on this side of the St. Lawrence Bay came to chat with him, and the topic started with the movie that director Cameron was going to make this time.

The prototype of the male protagonist of this movie is Qin Daguanren. This is something he is very proud of, and three years ago, he could not have imagined that he would one day become the prototype of Hollywood's top directors.

Of course, at that time, he did not dare to imagine that he would be so popular in a foreign country, at the auction site. Almost everyone wants to be friends with him, and he's even more popular than Fisheries Minister Matthew King.

Donald said to him jealously, "You've become a heartthrob, man, but luckily we're not having a party, otherwise I think you'd be the prom emperor here." ”

Qin Shiou asked lightly, "Then did I charm you?" ”

Donald smiled and said slyly, "If you're willing to sell me a batch of Atlantic cod, pollock, and haddock fry, I'm sure I'll be fascinated by you." ”

Like his goal, the others contacted Qin Shiou in order to get his fish, shrimp and crab fry.

Since last year. Canada's fishing industry is one of the country's pillar industries, and fishermen rely on foreign exchange to make money, and almost everyone here is in the export business.

However, the global economic downturn and repeated declines in seafood sales in Canada have worried fishermen.

This also has to do with the Canadian government's positioning, because of its proximity to the North Pole. Canada's North Atlantic and North Pacific waters are less polluted, while fish, shrimp and crabs in cold waters grow slowly, are nutritious and taste good.

So. Canada's seafood is graded according to the quality of the seafood, so as the economy of various countries becomes more and more sluggish, the ability to sell high-end seafood is gradually declining, and the fish farmers will eventually suffer.

In the first decade of the 21st century, Canada's annual export value was calculated in units of 100 tons, such as geoduck, snow crab, Dungeness crab, Arctic ginseng, white ginseng and other precious seafood. Now it is not easy to export a few hundred tons a year.

This year, the demand for Maine lobster exports has increased significantly, but because of lobster Kifella, Canada's lobster catch has plummeted, and even the domestic market cannot be supplied, who will still export?

The reason why Qin Shiou has attracted so much attention. It's just that his situation is different, when the big guy's seafood can't be sold, he created a high-end brand seafood of the Daqin brand, or the super high-end kind, and he doesn't worry about selling it at all, doesn't this make people envious, jealous and hateful?

The fishermen present were all people with brains, and they knew that jealousy and hatred were useless, so they did everything possible to befriend Qin Shiou, hoping to get his help and put their seafood into the Daqin brand for sale.

They have all calculated, even if they only sell half of the catch in Daqin Fishery, they can make a lot of money!

When the crowd was almost over, Matthew King called for a meeting, and the first part was free questioning, where the fishermen could ask questions about the policy and the current state of the seafood trade, and if they had good suggestions, they could discuss together.

Donald was very active and seized the first opportunity to speak, and he fired directly at Minister Matthew: "Mr. Minister, we would like to know that the cod and tuna fishing season is coming soon, can we increase our quota this year?" ”

In order to protect the sustainable development of the fishery, Canada is more cautious in terms of seafood fishing quotas, and will calculate a more appropriate value based on the fishing and sales in the past five years, and then reduce this value conservatively, and finally allocate everyone's fishing quota.

The fishing grounds are better, and those fishing boats that go out to sea need to buy a fishing license, and this license has a catch standard, and it is not allowed to exceed it, so how much money a boat can make by going to sea can be calculated almost in advance.

Matthew King was silent for a moment and said, "What if you increase your fishing quota?" Do you think the market can eat so many fish, shrimp and crabs? If you can't eat it, what are you going to do? Price reduction treatment? ”

"This is a matter for the state, we are fish farmers, not engaged in import and export trade." Someone said angrily.

As soon as someone complained, others followed, and the venue suddenly became noisy, and most of the fishery owners in the past two years have lost money rather than making money, holding their breath, and having the opportunity to challenge the Minister of Fisheries, who is not complaining about letting go?

Qin Shiou crossed his hands and said nothing, it was better for him not to mix on this occasion.

But at this time, as a core figure, it is impossible for him to stay out of the matter, Matthew King directly shifted the topic to him, saying: "I know that many fishermen here have lost money, but why can a young fisherman make money, but you experienced old fishermen can't make money?" ”

Hundreds of eyes converged on Qin Shiou, and the Qin officials smiled and nodded around, and secretly scolded Matthew Jin, the old man, for not being righteous, this is hanging him on the fire to roast.

Fortunately, he prepared the barbecue grill in advance, and he was able to escape: "I want to thank a person ......" (to be continued......
