Chapter 163, Return to Hong Kong

In the middle of Bohai Bay, the 'Taishan' is returning to Tianjin Port.

The smell of fish wafted from the boat, and there were so many catches in one night that the temporarily renovated fish tanks were bursting.

"My goodness, this trawling is simply a god, just one night of dragging, we caught almost more than 20,000 catties of sea fish."

The big tiger sighed while eating a fried yellow croaker weighing several catties in a big gulp.

In the past, I used to dig in the ground, I knew the preciousness of food, and I knew that food was not easy to come by, and this meat was even more so, that is, after entering the West Mountain, I could eat a full meal, and occasionally there was a meal of meat to eat, and I could eat meat every day after becoming a student of the Maritime Academy.

But that doesn't mean meat is a common thing in this day and age.

On the contrary, in this era, meat is extremely precious and scarce, and ordinary people can not encounter meat several times a year.

"The taste of this sea fish is really good, there is no earthy smell of river fish, and the meat is firm, there are very few bone spurs, so delicious, it is really unforgettable."

Tian Erniu ate a two-pound large yellow croaker cleanly, leaving only intact bones, throwing the bones into the sea, and the whole person was also conquered by the deliciousness of the big yellow croaker.

"There is so much in this sea that we used to forbid the sea, and it is foolish."

"There are such abundant resources not to be used, it is simply a tyrannical thing, which can catch more than 20,000 catties of fish in one night, if you use a special fishing boat to fish, the harvest will be more."

"As long as there are a certain number of fishing boats, the fish caught here alone are enough to feed many people, and this person is only one fish with three catties of meat a day, and we have more than 100 people, and we can catch 20,000 catties of fish in one night, which is enough for nearly 10,000 people to eat for a day."

"Now that the three northern provinces are in famine, if there is a large-scale fishing of marine fish, I believe there will be absolutely no problem in coping with it."

Tian Erniu also felt a lot, thinking of the famine in the three northern provinces, he immediately felt that the policy of banning the sea was really stupid, and he didn't make good use of the huge treasure house, and he insisted on making people die comfortably on one acre and three points of land, and once there was a famine, he would immediately starve to death.

In the past, Liu Jin told them that the ocean was a huge treasure trove in class, and they didn't have any specific concepts, but now it's completely different.

I personally saw and participated in a trawl fishing, just one night, I easily caught 20,000 catties of marine fish, if there are enough fish cabins, this time I can go back to another net, and it is very easy to go out for a trip, tens of thousands of catties of fish.

These tens of thousands of catties of fish are not just fish, it is also food, but also meat, the most precious thing in this era.

After really seeing it, I realized that what Liu Jin said was not wrong at all, the ocean is a huge treasure house, containing endless wealth.

Like the Taishan, the other five ships that stayed on this side of the Bohai Sea for training were also full of harvest, and they all embarked on the formation of a return voyage at this time.

Tianjin Port.

Liu Jin, who received the news, also hurriedly pulled Zhu Houzhao and came to Tianjin Port, ready to let this prince of the Ming Dynasty and the future Tianjin of the Ming Dynasty see the richness of the ocean.

If you want to really break the sea ban of the Ming Dynasty, it is useless to just rely on your mouth to say it, what you need is interests, and the interests are huge enough.

Because since ancient times, the world has been bustling for profit, and the world is bustling for profit, only interests are the driving force of everything, and only enough interests can open the heavy door of the sea ban.

From the time he met Emperor Hongzhi on the top of the Moon Tower, Liu Jin was all in the layout, thinking about how to lead the huge empire of the Ming Dynasty to the outside and look at the huge world outside.

Therefore, Liu Jin portrayed the world outside the Ming Dynasty as very rich, and used three high-yield crops on the Golden Continent to impress Emperor Hongzhi to fund and form a fleet to go to the Golden Continent.

Because Emperor Hongzhi's starting point was to find three high-yield crops that would benefit the people of the world, even if the court and the central government knew about it, no one stood up to oppose it.

In this matter, there is no way to oppose it at all, Emperor Hongzhi has a great righteousness, even if he is the spokesman of the maritime merchants in the Jiangnan region, he will not stand up stupidly to oppose it, because this must have no effect.

Therefore, there is the current fleet, there is an opportunity to go fishing in the Bohai Sea, and there is a chance to let the prince of the Ming Dynasty personally see the richness of the ocean.

"Lao Liu, you are too uninteresting, you don't tell me when this ship goes to sea, I still treat you as a brother."

Zhu Houzhao was in an extremely bad mood at this time, because he learned that the ship went to sea and didn't tell him, which made him miss the opportunity to go whaling in the sea, and the whole person was sullen and sulked at Liu Jin.

"Your Highness, this ship went out yesterday and came back today, just to take a turn in the Bohai Sea, so that the students can familiarize themselves with everything on the sea, not to go out to hunt whales."

Liu Jin is also very helpless, I don't dare to let you go to sea if I die, if there are three long and two short, my nine heads are not enough to kill.

"Bell~Bell~"

Liu Jin ordered people to build a lighthouse dozens of meters high, and a bell rang on it, which immediately shocked everyone in the entire port, and the ship that went to sea yesterday returned to the port.

Liu Jin took out his binoculars and looked at the sea, and vaguely could see five big ships cleaving the waves on the sea and heading towards the port, each with the flag of the Ming Dynasty hanging on each ship.

"I don't know if I have caught fish, the difficulty of trawling in ancient times The materials used to make fishing nets are not qualified, and if you want to vigorously develop the marine fishing industry in the future, this fishing net is not made of nylon and other chemical materials, and the origin of this sword is also in the Golden Continent."

Liu Jin's mind was full of thoughts, constantly thinking, in this era without industry, everything has to start from scratch, it is really very tiring, but fortunately, he now has some foundation, and the road will only get wider and smoother.
