Chapter 572: Leisure
"Husband, look, look, there's a crab over there." The boat moved forward slowly, Qiu Shuzhen suddenly shouted excitedly, Gu Chen hurriedly followed Qiu Shuzhen's fingers, and sure enough, he saw a big yellow crab under a piece of coral at the bottom of the water not far from the left side of the speedboat, the crab cover alone was more than ten centimeters, but the appearance was not much different from the common crabs on the table, and I didn't know if I could eat it.
"The scenery here is good, it's a good place for diving, but unfortunately there are a lot of sharks in the South China Sea, and there are no shark nets here, so I don't know when a shark will swim over." Let's have a fishing tournament, there are a lot of fish here. ”
Zeng Huaqian happily agreed: "Okay, I've never caught a fish before, and the fish we catch can also be made into a seafood feast by the chef." ”
Qiu Shuzhen naturally will not object, and then the speedboat drove on the reef for a while, inspected the environment of the lower reef, the reef is really not big, elliptical, the widest point is only more than 200 meters, it is a veritable 'small coral reef', there is no lagoon in the middle, near the middle is the shallowest place of the water level, only less than one meter, it is estimated that a small part will be exposed at low tide. However, although the reef is small, there are many kinds of fish, and the biggest fish seen is a flathead shark nearly one meter long found at the edge of the reef, but unfortunately I heard from the crew of the speedboat that a large part of these fish are inedible, and some are even poisonous.
Of course, only the internal organs are poisonous, and the poisonous fish on the body surface are still very rare in shallow waters. After that, Gu Chen and the three of them returned to the yacht and told them about the fishing competition. All the women were very interested in listening, and after making some preparations, Gu Chen, Zhao Yazhi, and Zhou Huimin were in a group. Li Zhi, Zeng Huaqian, Qiu Shuzhen group, Li Jiaxin, Guo Yunxi, Monica group, each group on a speedboat, with fishing and fishing tools, in addition to a bodyguard and a cook, the chef is mainly to distinguish what fish can eat and what fish can't eat.
There were five speedboats on board the Eclipse, except for three of the three crew members. The remaining two were also released from the cabin, and the crew drove the speedboat around the reef to prevent large sharks from entering. Although, according to the crew, most sharks do not actively attack humans. But be careful to sail the ship for ten thousand years, Gu Chen is not worried about himself, but worried about his woman, don't be stupid when you see a shark.
The fishing tournament begins. None of them really know how to fish out of so many. Some of them have never even touched a fishing rod before, but fortunately, they have never eaten pork and watched a pig run, how to use the fishing rod, what is the fishing process, what to pay attention to, everyone still knows.
However, fishing is a sport that requires great skill and patience, and it is not so easy for beginners to catch fish without the guidance of a professional. Many times I see the fish swimming next to the hook and eating the bait, but I don't take the bait. Or they took the bait, but as soon as they pulled the rope, the fish ran away again, and they didn't catch a small fish for almost half an hour, and the women couldn't help but be discouraged. After a while, Zeng Huaqian's excited shout came from Lizhi's group: "Ah, I caught it, I caught a fish." ”
Because it was not far away, everyone hurriedly looked, and sure enough, they saw Zeng Huaqian's fishing rod hooked with a fish, which looked quite big.
This bright and blind achievement greatly encouraged the women, and the interest that had just been depressed was aroused again, but unfortunately the fantasy was plump, but the reality was skinny, and after ten or twenty minutes, no one caught a fish, and even Gu Chen was a little impatient at this time.
looked at the fish that swam by the boat from time to time, and then looked at a net basket with a handle more than one meter long on the speedboat, this net basket is used to catch fish, but he can obviously not only use it to catch fish, he immediately put away the fishing rod, and at the same time asked Zhao Yazhi and Zhou Huimin to put away the fishing rod.
Then under the puzzled gaze of Zhao Yazhi and Zhou Huimin, let the crew start the speedboat, control the speed at the slowest state, and slowly drive towards the diving area, and he stretched the net basket into the water, as long as there are fish, he gently turned the mouth of the net basket to the fish, and took advantage of the trend of the speedboat to drive forward, and almost let the fish swim into the net basket by itself several times, and finally it may be because of the noise of the engine, and the success fell short.
However, this situation is much better than just now, after the Nth failure, finally a fish swam to a place less than twenty centimeters away from the mouth of the net basket, so close, the fish seemed to be alert, and was about to swim away, Gu Chen's hand holding the handle of the net basket stepped forward, and the fish was suddenly caught in the net basket, and it was still violently fluttering and struggling at the moment it came out of the water.
Zhou Huimin, who had been holding his breath and watching Gu Chen fishing carefully, immediately cheered: "Wow, I finally caught a fish, this fish is so big." ”
Gu Chen hurriedly took back the net basket, the fish was really strong, and he kept jumping in the net basket, he poured the fish into a rectangular plastic box filled with seawater, and then he saw the whole picture of the fish, as Zhou Huimin said, this fish is indeed quite big, almost more than forty centimeters long, the whole body is bright red, covered with purple red spots, the chef who accompanied the boat looked at the fish body, and explained: "This is a kind of grouper, called East Star Grouper, the grouper itself has been known as the four famous fish in China since ancient times, The eastern star grouper is a precious species of grouper, the meat is very delicious, and very chewy, whether it is steamed, or stewed soup is very good. ”
Gu Chen nodded, and said with a sense of accomplishment: "I have decided, I will steam this fish at noon today, what do you think?" ”
Zhao Yazhi smiled, but did not express an opinion, and reached out to pick up another net basket: "I'll try it too, maybe I can catch a big fish too." ”
Zhou Huimin, wearing plastic gloves on her hands, teased the fish in the box and said, "Wild grouper is very nutritious, and it is better to stew soup." ”
"It's not easy, let's grab another one, one steamed and one stewed." Saying that, Gu Chen put the net basket back into the water, and once again devoted himself to the great cause of catching fish, and the other two speedboat people saw that Gu Chen's fishing method was effective, and immediately followed suit, and the situation immediately changed a lot, and it didn't take long for Li Jiaxin to hear the cheers of catching the fish, and after a while, Qiu Shuzhen also caught it......
After ten o'clock, the sun became more and more intense, and the women who loved beauty were willing to let their skin burst in the sun, so the fishing competition came to an end temporarily, and everyone gathered on the stern deck to count the results, and the result was naturally that Gu Chen's group won, and the three groups caught a total of 17 fish, mainly groupers, the big ones were forty or fifty centimeters, and the small ones were one or twenty centimeters; In addition, there are five large crabs and three lobsters, according to the ship's chef, these are edible, and those that can't be eaten are released directly as soon as they are caught.
After catching so much fresh seafood, a sumptuous seafood feast is naturally indispensable at noon. After the fishing competition, the Eclipse also set sail again, and since it stopped for more than two hours, in order to reach Singapore on time, the Eclipse was a little faster than before.
After a day's sailing, by 3 p.m. the next day, the Eclipse slowly sailed into the port of Singapore under the guidance of the tugboat, and according to the plan, the Eclipse will stay in the port of Singapore for three hours, one is to wait for Pan Lingling to board the ship, and the other is to fill fuel and reserve daily necessities.
Located on the southern coast of Singapore, bordered by the southeast side of the Strait of Malacca to the west and the north side of the Singapore Strait to the south, the Port of Singapore is the largest entrepot in the Asia-Pacific region and one of the largest container ports in the world.
As time went on, more and more people gathered, including many reporters who received the news, and this was the first time that the outside world had such a close contact with the Eclipse, and it was precisely because of the close viewing that the more you could feel the enormity of this superyacht. However, some reporters were amazed and excited, and couldn't help but speculate whether the Eclipse docked in Singapore for other purposes than resupply.
According to the conclusions drawn from all sources, the destination of the Eclipse on this voyage is Gu Chen's private territory, located in the Pardocia Islands in the Indian Ocean, and the passengers on the ship are all Gu Chen's women except for Gu Chen, as for Guo Yunxi and the four of them, no one has ever thought that their relationship with Gu Chen is innocent. And in Singapore, there is a rumored girlfriend of Gu Chen, is one of the purposes of the Eclipse docking in Singapore to pick up this rumored girlfriend? No one knew, but the doubt didn't last long.
The Eclipse, which had been motionless, suddenly opened a hatch from the side of the ship next to the dock, and then a gangway came out of the hatch and set up between the yacht and the dock, and then a dozen bodyguards stepped out of the ship and cleared a clearing in front of the gangway.
Just when most people still don't know why, a nanny car came from a distance, stopped in the cleared clearing, the car door opened, and a tall woman wearing a black dress and sunglasses got out of the car, although the woman's face was mostly covered by sunglasses, almost everyone present recognized the identity of the other party at a glance, who else could it be if it wasn't Pan Lingling?
In an instant, the surrounding reporters were like cats smelling fishy, some hurriedly took pictures, and some desperately squeezed forward, wanting to interview Pan Lingling, but unfortunately they were blocked by the bodyguards, despite this, all kinds of questions kept coming out of their mouths. In this regard, Pan Lingling ignored it completely, and quickly walked up the ramp to the yacht silently, and naturally the bodyguards behind her helped her carry her luggage. (To be continued......)
