1868. Fish Fry Nursery
Light bulb squirts have been found in many seas, but they are not easy to spot because they are not often found on the surface of the sea and need to be exposed to sunlight in a dim environment to emit a beautiful and colorful glow.
This time, the fish didn't know where to hit so many bulb sea squirts, Qin Shiou collected them, and collected thousands of large and small bulb sea squirts, and then he had to find a way to send them back to the fishing ground of Farewell Island.
This is actually quite a headache, the bulb squirts themselves lack movement, so they can only parasitize on rocks, seaweed or large fish, and the best way to bring them back seems to be to drop a large fishing net and let the fishing boat drag the net back to Farewell Island.
But then the problem came, firstly, there was no need for the Melon Princess to return to Farewell Island, and secondly, even if a ship went back, the fishing nets it dragged all the way were a bit too treacherous.
But Qin Daguan was clever, and he patted his forehead and came up with an idea-a snack.
There are a lot of sharks and whales in his fishing grounds, such as great white sharks, sand tiger sharks, bull sharks, basking sharks, blue whales, Arctic right whales, sperm whales, etc., these guys are all big guys, and they stay in his fishing grounds all day and don't do their business, and it will be their turn to do their work!
Qin Shiou sent the Seagod Consciousness back to the Daqin Fishing Ground, and then found these big guys and gave them an order to let them rush to the waters of the No. 3 Fishing Ground, and let the light bulb sea squirt parasitize them when the time comes, wouldn't it be very simple to send them back to the fishing ground? And people don't know it, it's an absolute match made in heaven!
There are even leatherback turtles and green sea turtles. Although these guys are not very big, they just happened to return from the southern hemisphere, and they had to pass through the No. 3 fishing ground before returning to the Daqin fishing ground. Then their labor should not be wasted. Leatherback turtles and green turtles are much smaller than whales and sharks, but mosquito legs are also meat, so you can take them back as much as you can along the way.
As a result, the waters of Newfoundland ushered in an even more terrifying scene after a great migration of fish. Whales and shark pods are also migrating.
I saw that under the ocean, a huge and terrifying shadow invaded from the deep sea - a group of hideous-looking great white sharks had just passed, and then several large finned whales followed. There are also huge figures of bull sharks, sand tiger sharks, blue whales, sperm whales, and finally a basking shark, a kind of guy that moves super slowly but is absolutely huge!
For whales and sharks, the journey from St. John's to Nova Scotia is not very far. It's not a hard job. So Qin Shiou was at ease, in fact, he thought it was very good, so he should let these lazy people exercise and fitness, and he didn't even have any vitality to stay in the fishing ground all day long.
The fry are released, the fingerlings are delivered, and now the fish have arrived, so the construction of the No. 3 fishery can be started.
Shaq bought all the tools such as fishing nets, small fishing boats and speedboats, and the fishermen took small converted fishing boats to make a preliminary count of the resources of Fishery No. 3.
And Qin Shiou contacted the Poseidon shipyard. His exclusive account manager, Hanks Brewer, has recently made a lot of money with him, and this time Qin Shiou has sent tens of millions of orders. Or order a 500-ton fishing boat, specially prepared for the No. 3 fishing ground.
The more important task of the Qin officials is to input the energy of the sea god to the fry and schools of fish that come to the fishing ground, and they also have to command the group of fish fry.
After that, the fishermen were very busy, and the nets that Shaq bought were not trawls, purse seine nets, or fishing nets or anything like that, and now the No. 3 fishing farm has just started construction, and there is still some time before it can be produced, and these fishing nets are breeding nets.
Breeding nets are similar to purse seine nets, but they are straight up and straight down, and can be considered as fences in the ocean, and the nets are very large, often thousands of meters long.
After preparing the breeding net, Sha Ke gave Qin Shiou a few suggestions, and said: "BOSS, sea carp like to live in groups, so you don't need to provide them with too much living space, so you can have a small farm in the offshore circle." Moray eels have to be delineated with small mesh nets, and I have prepared a No. 2 and No. 3 caliber, which is more suitable......"
In the past, when he was in the Daqin Fishing Ground, Qin Shiou cultivated fish fry, and they were all stocked at will. I can't do this when I come to the No. 3 Fishing Ground, because the Daqin Fishery has abundant small fish such as mackerel, herring, whitebait, and smelt for food, and the big fish prefer these foods that contain the energy of the sea god.
At Fishery No. 3, there are a lot of herring mackerel, but these guys are strong and athletic, and although the big local fish covet their deliciousness, it is not easy to eat them.
As a result, the small fry that have just arrived in the fishery become their preferred food, and the fry may have a lower taste and nutritional value, but they are also less athletic and easier to catch.
Therefore, in order to protect the fry, they had to be kept in purse seine nets to prevent them from becoming food for the mouths of large fish before they grow.
Qin Shiou followed Shaq's advice and commanded the start of a combined farm in offshore waters.
It is easier and more difficult to say that a marine farm is easier than a land-based farm, because it can be fenced with fishing nets, and there is no need to fence it like a farm and pasture on land.
It is also difficult to say that it is difficult, the terrain of the seabed is undulating, and the nets must be firmly rooted in the seabed, otherwise the fry will still escape, and the big fish will still sneak in. As a result, fishermen are required to dive to fix the nets, which is a very tiring and patient task.
The first is to set up fishing nets for the crucian carp group, Qin Shiou brought an underwater video recorder from the Daqin fishing ground, and the fishermen took it into the water, cooperating with the radar scanner on the fishing boat, looking for an area suitable for marine farming.
In fact, this Qin Daguan has long known in his heart, he has the golden finger of the Seagod Consciousness, and through the Seagod Consciousness, he can clearly find the flat area of the seabed.
But he couldn't show his skills, and he had to wait until the fishermen had gathered the information before he decided where to set up the farm.
Choosing a location for an ordinary fishery is very difficult, and even with the help of modern equipment, it is difficult to explore a clear seabed.
But for Qin Shiou, this is very simple, he pretended to refer to the seabed terrain that the fishermen photographed and reconnoitred, and quickly selected a sea area of about two or three square kilometers.
The next thing is to tie the net, there is a stone pendant under the breeding net, there is a balloon buoy above, Qin Shiou and the fishermen put on diving suits and jumped into the ocean, pulling the breeding net to build a farm. (To be continued.) )
