Arctic cod is one of the most important species of cod, the only pure cold-water cod, they generally do not live at temperatures above 5 degrees Celsius, and once they exceed this temperature, they will migrate.

Therefore, except for the North and South Poles, it is difficult to see this fish in other seas.

There are many types of cod, but what is the most expensive? Atlantic cod? Black cod? Pollock? These cod are very precious, delicious and nutritious, but the price is not the highest.

The most expensive cod is the Arctic cod, because it is slower to grow, cleaner and less productive than its siblings, so it is expensive.

Of course, there is another fish that produces less and grows more slowly, and that is Antarctic cod, but the problem is that Antarctica is not allowed to be caught commercially, and Antarctic cod cannot enter the market.

Seeing these large and small schools of cod, Qin Shiou was very excited, this time he came to Greenland to come to the right place, otherwise he would have missed the Arctic cod breeding plan.

His fishing grounds cover a wide range, and the water temperature in spring, autumn and summer is relatively high, which is not suitable for the growth of Arctic cod, but it doesn't matter, this fish is a deep-water fish, and there are many low-temperature deep-sea waters in the fishing grounds.

Now in this season, there are no fishing boats in the Arctic Circle, and there is no need for various countries to issue laws and regulations, and it is impossible to fish in this kind of bright weather for two or three hours a day at most.

Therefore, Qin Shiou took advantage of it, although the yield of Arctic cod is low, but now the population is not large, and he can rest assured that he can collect it.

Arctic cod has a high economic value, it is high in protein and low in fat. Because it is pollution-free, the whole body is full of treasures: not to mention the fish. Fish bones, fish heads, fish tails and other leftovers can be processed into fish meal and fish oil, and minced fish meat can be used to make surimi.

In all kinds of cod. Arctic cod is the best surimi: it is very high in protein and very low in fat of at least 0.5%, almost equal to shark meat.

Therefore, this surimi is white and delicate, rich in nutrients, and due to its low fat, it will cause the surimi to have a particularly good elasticity, which is incomparable to other fish.

In addition, there is a place where Arctic cod cannot be compared to other fish. That is, it is the best source of deep sea fish oil extraction. Arctic cod has a large liver, accounting for 10% of body weight, and more than half of it is valuable fat.

These fats are derived from high-quality fish oil, which is rich in DHA, and in the U.S. and Canadian health supplement markets, deep-sea fish oil from Arctic cod is always sold separately from fish from other fish.

Qin Shiou's Eight Seagod Consciousness quickly attacked, searched north and south along the Ilulissat Glacier Bay, and gave them instructions when he encountered a school of cod, telling them the coordinates of the Great Qin Fishing Ground. Let them rush over.

But then he found out that these guys were too simple-minded to understand such instructions, and would only migrate south. But they will not look for the location of the Daqin fishing ground.

There was no way, he had to choose a big school of fish, a sea god consciousness with a school of fish. Take them with them in the direction of St. John's.

Since there is this opportunity, Qin Shiou must breed Arctic cod. This fish is very marketable in Europe, in Northern Europe. They are known as the "dietitians of the table", and the Portuguese even call them "liquid gold"!

In addition, compared with the Arctic and Antarctic seafood, the growth rate of Arctic cod in the cold sea can be described as fast, take the Arctic grayling that Qin Shiou and his party just ate as an example, this fish is 10 centimeters long in five years, and 15 centimeters in ten years, and the growth is very slow.

The Arctic cod is much faster, the average body length reaches 17 cm at the age of 3, 19.5 cm at the 4th age, 21 cm at the 5th age, 22 cm at the 6th age, and continues to grow in the future, it can grow to one meter, one and a half meters, and the limit is two meters!

This is related to their growth habits, the cold waters of the deep sea have little food, and many fish are picky eaters, so they naturally grow slowly. The advantage of Arctic cod is that it is not a picky eater, as long as it can move, it eats everything, eats a lot, and therefore grows quickly.

Qin Shiou believed that with the cultivation of the Seagod's energy, they could grow faster.

He also likes Arctic cod is that this fish is super fecund, and the female fish with a body length of about 1 meter can lay as many as 3 million ~ 4 million eggs at a time. And living in a group, it's easy to capture.

As long as Arctic cod can breed in the fishing grounds, Qin Shiou has another fist product, Arctic cod is not something that anyone can breed, in fact, this kind of fish cannot be farmed.

The reason for this is that in order to reduce energy loss, Arctic cod exchanges as little as possible with the icy water. Over time, they have evolved a unique closed circulatory system, so that the harmful substances they ingest from food cannot be excreted from the body through the kidneys, but accumulate in the body.

In other words, if Arctic cod enters a polluted water, their meat is inedible, which is why it is not found anywhere else except in the pristine waters of the Arctic and Antarctic.

Arctic cod is a delicate species that can only survive in a sterile environment, Qin Shiou feels that only his own fishery in the world's countless fishing grounds dare to say that the environment is clean and pollution-free.

Naturally, only the Daqin Fishery can breed this fish.

So, in the deep sea, a large school of fish began to move, under the control of Qin Shiou, they passed through the Ilulissat Glacier Bay, and killed in a mighty way towards the south.

As soon as he came out of the ice bay, Qin Shiou encountered a group of Greenland sharks, which were large, slow-moving, with large stomachs, and were always in a state of hunger, so after discovering a school of Arctic cod, they were immediately excited.

Qin Shiou let out the wrath of the sea god, and suddenly the underwater waves rolled, and the Greenland sharks were startled, quickly turned around, and swam away slowly.

Qin Daguan felt that they were leaving slowly, so he used the waves created by the Seagod Consciousness to help them, which was really rolling away.

Greenland sharks are very aggrieved, not because they don't want to go fast, but because they are slow by nature.

However, Qin Daguan didn't care, he just wanted to bring the Arctic cod to the fishing ground safely.

Just when he had nothing to do here, he took the fish with peace of mind, like a tour guide, and rushed to the fishing ground with eight groups, and his consciousness changed in turn, ensuring that the eight big fish always kept the right direction, and also tried to ensure that no fish were left behind.

Each school of fish had at least tens of thousands of Arctic cod, and the sum of eight schools was four or five hundred thousand, which was equivalent to a small half of the large fish in the North Sea of Greenland at once.

Looking at these fat fish, Qin Daguan was satisfied, just like an old farmer seeing a bumper harvest.

Over there, Wincole is irritable, the little girl and the bear cub are constantly fighting fiercely, and a real version of the mountain cannot tolerate two tigers, she can take care of this, but she can't take care of which.

In the end, she couldn't stand it anymore, and she complained, "What are you giggling at there?" Come here and look at your daughter, the second cub is going to be beaten and cried by her! (To be continued......)
