When Yu Xiaotian saw this situation, he suddenly slapped his head, and Ha Lu Ha Da Lu laughed: "This is really nowhere to find the iron shoes, and it takes no effort to get it!" We really don't know that we are sitting on Baoshan! I'm still worried about what kind of oil! Isn't there a big vat of oil right in front of you? ”

Yu Xiaotian's startled performance startled the subordinates who followed him, and they couldn't figure out what he was talking about for a while, so Liu Laoliu hurriedly asked, "Xiaotian, did you think of any good ideas again?" Come and hear it! ”

Yu Xiaotian pointed to the sea water in front of him and smiled at Liu Laoliu: "Let's worry about running out of oil, but we forgot that there is a lot of oil in this sea, what do you see?" ”

Liu Laoliu looked in the direction of Yu Xiaotian's finger and immediately said, "Isn't that a whale?" ”

Yu Xiaotian nodded and said, "That's right!" It's whales! As long as you catch one of this guy, are you still worried that there is no oil available? And as long as whales can be caught, everyone will have endless meat to eat in the future, whale skin can be made into leather clothing, whale baleen can be used to make bowstrings, and inexhaustible whale oil can be used to make candles, soap, steel, ......."

Yu Xiaotian danced and pointed to the whale that appeared in the distance on the sea, and said to Liu Laoliu and the others.

Everyone was stunned when they heard it, whales are such a thing, they are often seen by people who are active at sea, and in the nearby waters, there are many whales that often haunt, and because of their huge size, they all have a sense of awe for it, Yu Xiaotian said that it has a lot of oil on it, and the big guy certainly believes it.

In addition, Yu Xiaotian said that everyone can basically understand the other benefits of whales, but some people like to drill the tip of the horns, for example, Liu Wang, this kid, just wait for Yu Xiaotian to finish speaking, and then ask a question: "Helm handle!" What kind of soap are you talking about? ”

After hearing this, Yu Xiaotian knew that he had just gotten carried away, and he actually casually said something that would only exist in the later generations, so he had to make a fool of Liu Wang.

But what Liu Lao Liu said next made Yu Xiaotian a little difficult again: "Helmsman, aren't you in a hurry!" It's easy to say that whale is so big, and none of us have ever caught this thing, but if we really want to catch that thing, I'm afraid it won't be easy!

As far as our boat is hit, as long as it is hit by a whale, I am afraid that our boat can be knocked apart, even if it is swept by the tail of that thing, I guess I can't stand it! Who's going to catch that kind of thing! Helm handle, this is a joke! ”

After Yu Xiaotian heard it, he also felt that it was really difficult to handle, although there were some old fishermen under him, but these people usually catch some marine fish at sea, but no one has ever killed whales, and the whaling industry has never been developed in Chinese history, there is no industry at all, and the Chinese have no tradition of eating whale meat in history, so there are very few people who know how to hunt whales in this era.

Although whaling can be a huge help in solving many of his problems, at least someone will have to do it! If you are reckless, you will take people to whaling, and if you can't catch whales, you will sink the boat, and then the gains will outweigh the losses.

After Yu Xiaotian heard Liu Laoliu's words, as if he had been poured cold water on his head, he immediately calmed down, waved his hand and asked the idle people to go and work on them first, and took Liu Laoliu and Guo Fu to wander around the seaside slide and continue to think of a way.

But the idea of whaling, like the devil, once it came to his mind, immediately controlled his mind.

He hadn't thought of it before, but after thinking about it today, the various benefits of whaling immediately flashed in his mind, and so many benefits were really a temptation.

Although he is a pirate at the moment, after all, he lives by robbing, and he is still the enemy of the orthodox court government of this era, and sooner or later, when he does too much, he will attract the attention of the government or the court, and it will inevitably clash with the court government, and it is not impossible to send troops to suppress him.

In addition, in the deepest part of his heart, he is still somewhat resistant to the matter of hijacking, which is to rely on killing people and goods to satisfy his accumulation of wealth, which is too bloody.

So he often thinks about it, when there are conditions, he also has to think of some ways to operate, business is inevitable, in the late Ming Dynasty and even other dynasties in the late Ming Dynasty and even other dynasties formed a powerful group, maritime trade accounted for a large part of their business.

However, the competition in maritime trade is also fierce, and if he does not have enough control to form a monopoly, it is not easy to open up the situation, so if he can start from the basics and produce some goods that others do not have, or are scarce, he can live in strange goods and make a lot of money.

And whaling, in later generations, he is also very emotionally resistant, long-term human excessive whaling, so that cetaceans, a strange creature of nature, is on the verge of extinction, in the old time and space in which he lived, only the extremely dirty country in the East China and Norway and a very few countries are still engaged in whaling, and most of the other countries have banned whaling.

From the perspective of environmental protection, he doesn't like whaling, but now he is in an era, not the old time and space in which he used to live, but in the late Ming Dynasty, the sea whaling industry is not yet developed, and the number of whales in the ocean is still very large.

Therefore, it is completely acceptable to hunt some whales reasonably and make full use of what they have on them to meet his immediate needs, as long as this industry is not developed in large quantities, it will not have much impact on the ecology and the survival of cetaceans.

Therefore, if he is limited to the way of thinking of later generations and looks at the current era and environment, then it can only be said that he is a pedantic person, and the first thing he should think about at the moment is how to strengthen himself as soon as possible and obtain more wealth, as for the protection of whales, it should not be a problem for him to consider now.

So he sat down on the chute and began to scour his mind for all sorts of information about whaling......

Although whaling was completely banned in China as early as the 80s, there are still a lot of things to learn from in various TV news, documentaries and other documents.

In particular, he remembers watching a documentary about some things that happened in history about what happened to whalers, which gave a detailed introduction to how and how whaling was carried out in Western countries in history, which provided him with lessons to learn from.

Although whaling is not a simple matter, as far as he knows, humans have been hunting cetaceans for food, oil and even leather for human life since a long time.

In ancient times, the ancients in some places were able to hunt whales, and now at the end of the Ming Dynasty, although China has caused the stagnation of the development of sea ships because of the sea ban, and even regressed, but the things they can use now are far more than the skills and equipment that humans had in ancient times, if he can't even catch whales now, it will really be a shame.

Thinking of this, Yu Xiaotian immediately regained his confidence, things are man-made, only the unexpected, there is nothing that cannot be done! No matter what, you have to do it! So he immediately stood up and said to himself with a smile: "Damn, Lao Tzu finally climbed to the top of the food chain, how can he be a vegetarian every day?" Lao Tzu wants to eat meat! After finishing speaking, he turned around and strode towards the stockade, leaving Liu Laoliu and Guo Fu looking at his back with a confused expression.

After Liu Laoliu smiled bitterly, he shook his head and said to Guo Fu: "Our helmsman must have made up his mind, he is this temper, as long as he thinks of something, he has to do it, this time we have a lively look!" If we don't get it right, we can really do this with the helm! ”
