Chapter 631: A good start

Under the premise of no electric tools, on the fishing boat, a variety of tools are widely used, which can be amplified by the power of the individual under the influence of mechanical transmission, with the help of pulley blocks and other things, and the trawl begins to rise slowly under the pull of one or two hundred strong guys.

At a high place, I can see it more clearly, and the fish that have been trawled and pulled up are indeed big yellow croaker.

This judgment is not wrong, in this era, the big yellow croaker is not as precious as later generations, but it is also a very good fish, compared to other marine fish, more delicious, and the individual is also larger.

With the gradual rise of the trawl, when the dense large yellow croaker appeared, including Zeng Da Niu, it was already known that this harvest would be very rich, the characteristics of the big yellow croaker, so that there were few other sea fish along with it, and the appearance of tuna, but also made the fish of the big yellow croaker more dense, this series of coincidences, so that the first time to get off the net, it made a good start.

Not only were they happy, but so were the fishing men below, they were more energetic, but most of the sailors on the fishing boats who went to sea for the first time grew up at the water's edge or by the sea, but they never caught such a huge school of fish in one net.

Even if it is through tools to save effort, but in the hands, the heavy feeling tells them that there are too many fish in it.

Zeng Da Niu also relaxed, chatting with a few people next to him, now that the start has been confirmed, the only question is that there is how much this is, and what is the proportion of big yellow croaker.

Another fisherman, who grew up on the Shandong Peninsula, was a little disappointed and said, "If only we could catch tuna!" ”

Almost all the men on the beach know tuna, which is a fish that travels very fast, because of the development of muscles, his meat quality is better, and it tastes more delicious.

It's just that everyone knows that this is impossible, and it seems that in their memory, there are very few records of being able to catch tuna with a net.

Such fish are too fast, and when they are at full speed, they have tremendous strength, and ordinary nets can't withstand it at all.

Perhaps, the trawl here is slightly better and can withstand huge forces, but compared to tuna, I'm afraid it is still a little worse.

Everyone knows that this is just a joke, the difficulty of tuna fishing, that is not ordinarily big, even in later generations, when bluefin tuna became the supreme delicacy, the most expensive per pound, as high as hundreds, or even thousands of dollars, their fishing method is more fishing.

The advantage of trawling is that it can cover a larger area, 3 trawls, respectively, in different places, and then wave their hands, when the speed of the boat dragged over the huge volume, almost the entire large school of fish, did not escape too much, and was almost rounded.

A reasonable trawl can make the fish hide, except for a few that are not covered by the trawl and are lucky enough to escape, most of the others are shrouded in it, and then in the face of a strong force, the net is tightened.

The sea water is discharged from the fishing nets, and the huge mesh can't contain the sea water at all, and the remaining fish, which are getting denser and denser, and they also instinctively feel that they may be going to suffer a catastrophe, in crazy activities, and even some of them jump out of the water, but unfortunately, everything is in vain, when the trawl is tightened, their last chance to escape, is gone.

The first one to put it away was not Zeng Da Niu's boat, it was the other one, because of the net, he had a cup of tea earlier than the other two.

But one after another, the nets began to rise, and when the nets were finally closed, the panicked fish began to jump wildly, looking full of vitality.

"Very good, almost all of them are big yellow croaker!" Zeng Da Niu was overjoyed, even if there was no final calculation, some other fish, but at most less than one percent, the tuna had already left, there was no way to catch them, maybe it was a pity, thousands of big yellow croaker, has made up for this shortcoming.

When the trawl began to be retracted little by little, the processing of the catch also began, because it was a live fish, and it was relatively dense and small, and the deck was not very suitable, at this time, the second layer was opened, and the upper deck was opened, revealing a huge cabin, and the rain of the big yellow croaker was falling at this time.

This is a huge group of large yellow croaker, the final number of statistics, about 70,000, almost 80,000, because they are all adult fish, most of the weight is about 3 to 4 catties, the overall harvest, about 210,000 catties.

3 nets, an average of about 70,000 catties of large yellow croaker nets, such efficiency, absolutely commendable, it took about half an hour, to pull up these fish, a large number of fish in the cabin, do not stop, keep jumping, and the workers, except for a small number of particularly large, such as more than 60 cm, the weight of more than 6 catties, will be placed in the bottom of the water tank, the rest, almost all slaughtered on the spot

Almost all of these workers are in the seaside fish market, although they have sporadic catches before the navy, but they have accumulated experience, and they are very familiar with the common fish species in the entire Chinese sea, and the large yellow croaker is no exception.

However, there were no more than 150 people in three boats, and even if there were some fishermen and sailors to help, it was only about 300 people.

300 people, processing more than 70,000 fish, almost everyone has to process more than 200, this is a very large workload.

Fortunately, there is no need for fine processing, just remove the fish head, internal organs, and bad places, and then salt.

In the huge hull, lined up, although on the ship, it is not suitable to put down the production line, the reasonable division of labor habits of the navy is also shown here, one person specializes in chopping fish heads, one person cleans the internal organs, and the other person sprinkles salt.

Because it is not deep processing, but only to prevent rotting, the process is very fast, maybe a minute, a team of three, can process 3 to 4 fish.

In this way, a team of 300 people can process 400 fish in one minute, and it takes more than 3 hours to process more than 70,000 fish.

It stands to reason that more than 200,000 catties of fish were obtained at one time, or a more delicious big yellow croaker, such a harvest is really okay, but how long is it, if you come out of the shipyard, it will be almost 3 hours, if you count the time to leave the Dinghai Navy, it may only be 2 hours, there is still a lot of time, maybe, you can also meet the fish.

This is not only the idea of a single captain, but also the idea of the vast majority of sailors on board.

In addition to the necessary personnel, the other personnel were supported in the cabin to process the fish as quickly as possible, and even the process could be simplified, only the internal organs were cleaned, and even the head could be left.

One step saved, nearly half of the time can be saved, and it is estimated that within an hour, it can be processed, and they can also leave here and sail deeper.

It seems that good luck has run out of big yellow croaker here, and in the next 2 hours, only two small schools of fish have been encountered, if they have just gone out to sea, they will definitely not let go of such small fish, and they will definitely not let go back.

But now, there are still tens of thousands of fish in the cabin that have not been processed, and there is no time to take care of these fish.

Watching the fish run away from the side, this is a pain for the fisherman, the people below sped up, and finally in more than an hour, the fish were cleaned up, and the pickled fish were put into a special cabin, and then told the top, and the bottom was processed.

After processing, it means that the net can be opened, because it has gone deep enough, they did not continue, but chose to return, but after a little detour, they returned from the other side of the Dinghai Navy.

It seems that for several hours in a row, luck has struck again, this time, not the big yellow croaker, but the salmon, which is a specialty of the Pacific, mostly in the north and rarely in the Yellow Sea.

Of course, you have to go to the net, however, this is not a big fish group, there are probably more than 5,000 fish, but relatively speaking, the weight of salmon is much larger than that of big yellow croaker, about 12, that is, more than 5,000, more than 60,000 catties.

This is the last net on the net after the entire fleet goes to sea, although it is said that the three ships, on average, can hold about 300 tons of fish, and the three add up, nearly 1,000 tons, which is more than 1 million catties of capacity.

However, twice pulled up, it is almost 300,000 catties, this weight is absolutely okay, this is a new boat, everyone needs to run in slowly, the same is true for fishing, look at the sky, now go back, almost at seven or eight o'clock in the evening, to be able to reach the shore, just in time for the first sale of the market.

For this sale, Ding Haijun and Zhao Xin look at it more seriously, as long as there is a certain amount of fish, it will definitely be opened, and it is appropriate to go back now.

Including Zeng Da Niu, the people who were in charge of watching the fish, as well as the lookouts, almost all came back, unless they encountered that kind of super big fish, or it was more precious, they would stop and take a look, otherwise, they would go back directly.

In fact, it was a very lucky thing for them to encounter two schools of fish of considerable size, and they did not have this luck.

When I returned, I was a little unlucky, and I didn't even encounter a few hundred of them, the most common small fish, but the wind was very smooth, and I returned to the Dinghai Navy at a super high speed along the way, almost in less time than when I came.

When the three boats appeared in the fishing port of the Dinghai Navy, it was already six o'clock in the evening, even if it was close to summer, the sky was a little dusk, from about 5 o'clock in the morning, began to enter the canal to open, left the Dinghai at 7 o'clock, and returned in the afternoon, the whole fishing boat walked for almost 14 hours, almost 7 hours, almost throughout the day.

Along the way, the time of simple sailing exceeded 9 hours, and the real fishing time did not exceed 5 hours.

Because this is the first return of the fishing boat, from top to bottom, it is very important, and even Zhao Xin visited the fishing port in person, in addition to cheering for the sailors, he also has to cut the ribbon for the fish market in the fishing port.

From the moment he got on the fishing boat, Zhao Xin knew that in the future, the fish market would definitely be a more important place, and in the future, it would become one of the basic sources of meat for the entire Dinghai Army.

However, what Zhao Xin didn't expect was that fortunately, the three boats encountered a school of fish, not a school of extra-large fish, and a total of 9 trawls, almost once an hour, netted 300,000 catties of fish.

Among them, there are a large number of large yellow croaker, Zhao Xin, who has experienced the situation in later generations, is very aware of the value of large yellow croaker, this kind of fish unique to China, in later generations because of various fishing, endangered, not to mention more than 10 catties, more than 5 catties are rare.

The characteristics of large yellow croaker, generally in the juvenile years, grow very fast, about 2 catties, it has stopped, from 2 catties to 7 catties, it takes about 10 years, or even a little longer.

In later generations, a wild big yellow croaker, more than 7 catties, may be more than 10,000 per catty, even if it is more than four catties, it can reach a high price of more than 30,000 yuan.

Such 210,000 catties of big yellow croaker, among which there are a large number of more than 10 catties, a total of more than 6,700, if placed in the 21st century, this will be such a terrible wealth.

Of course, this is also related to the environment, in this era, the big yellow croaker is still the main fish species in Chinese waters, and the advantage of encountering a large group of 70,000 is basically caught at one time, so there is such a result.

This is a good start, and 300,000 catties of sea fish into the market, but also attracted the sought after, in fact, for meat, there is already a strong demand, plus the sea fish is only bought according to the price, without a ticket, only more than 2 hours, all sold out.

Today, there are many families who cook fish to eat, including delicious large yellow croaker and salmon.

The strong demand has given birth to a huge market, the price of large yellow croaker, which was eventually 80 Wen, is attributed to 60 Wen, almost 300,000 catties of fish, and the final harvest has reached 20,000 yuan, which is nothing compared to the huge industrial output value of the Dinghai Navy, but this is only the first day of harvest of fishing boats, which is very considerable.

Even if in the future, the entire fishing will be discounted, 100,000 catties a day, and it will be six or seven thousand, which can not only make money, but also provide a steady stream of meat for the navy, and the most important thing is that there are only three ships.

Middle-level officials began to understand that what Zhao Xin said before, using ocean fishing to ensure the food of the Dinghai Navy, before, maybe no one paid attention to it, but now the reality in front of them, today's harvest alone is equivalent to 15,000 pigs, which is the procurement personnel of the Dinghai Navy, no matter what, can not be satisfied.
