Chapter 43: Seafood from Hell II
Early the next morning, before dawn, Li Xiaofeng's family had already gotten up.
After eating breakfast and bringing tools, Liu Xuexia led the two brothers, Li Xiaofeng and Li Xiaoqiang, to prepare to sail to sea.
Today, Li Xiaofeng also brought a special cone.
It's not easy to get a dog's claw snail off a hard rock.
After the dog claw snail is adsorbed to the surface of the object, it will produce a substance called barnacle primary gum, which has several times the adhesive capacity of the glue we usually use.
It is also this characteristic that causes barnacles to run rampant in the ocean. Once a whale or a sea turtle is caught by it, it is difficult to get rid of it on their own.
Sea turtles, in particular, are waiting for them to either ask for help from humans or die!
Humans also spend a lot of money every year to remove the barnacles from the hull of the ship.
After packing up the things, Li Xiaofeng also brought a large water tank, ready to be used to raise the captured dog claw snails at that time.
Dog claw snails cannot be stored chilled. Once frozen, it spoils the flavor of the snail.
In this way, Li Xiaofeng drove the boat and set off with Liu Xuexia and Li Xiaoqiang.
Less than twenty minutes after the boat sailed, Li Xiaoqiang began to vomit, and at the end of the vomit, the bile was about to vomit out!
Looking at his pale brother, Li Xiaofeng was also very distressed, but there was no good way.
The fishing boat drove for more than three hours before reaching the sea area where the Devil's Head Reef is located.
In the morning light, Devil's Head Reef has just surfaced. The turbulent currents carried the waves, which kept crashing on the Devil's Head Reef, splashing huge waves.
Ghost Head Reef is not a single reef, but a large reef fort made up of countless reefs together.
The closer the boat got to Ghost Head Reef, the bigger the waves became, and the more turbulent the boat became.
Liu Xuexia and Li Xiaoqiang, looking at the Guitou Reef in the turbulent waves, couldn't help but change color a little.
Looking at the faces of his mother and younger brother, Li Xiaofeng understood what they were thinking, and quickly explained: "Mom, brother, don't worry, it looks like the waves are big now, but as the tide recedes, the waves here will get smaller and smaller!" We're early, so I'll find a place to park the boat. ”
Hearing this, Liu Xuexia and Li Xiaoqiang's faces were a little better!
If the waves had been so big, they would not have agreed to Li Xiaofeng's passage if they said anything.
Finding a relatively calm water area far away from Guitou Reef, Li Xiaofeng threw the anchor down and fixed the boat firmly.
There may be no one who dares to come and fish in this area, so the fish resources under the surface of the sea are very rich!
Through the map, Li Xiaofeng found that the sea surface was rough, but in the reef below the sea surface, there was a paradise for fish and shrimp to live.
Here, he found more than a dozen groupers alone, and even several large lobsters, and countless small fish and shrimp.
Looking at the blue spot weighing more than ten pounds not far from the boat under the sea, Li Xiaofeng felt that this guy was completely provoking himself, how could he bear it!
So he said to Liu Xuexia: "Mom, you and Xiaoqiang are staying on the boat, and now you can't get over there on Guitou Reef, I'll fish nearby for a while!"
Liu Xuexia nodded and said, "You must pay attention to safety when you go down!" ”
"Mom, don't worry!" After Li Xiaofeng finished speaking, he said hello to Li Xiaoqiang, who was lying on the boat with a slightly better complexion, changed into a diving suit, put on an oxygen cylinder, brought a speargun, took a thruster, and jumped off the boat.
Under water, the thrusters were turned on. Haha, with the blessing of this technological equipment, it's cool!
He didn't have to swim anymore, and the thruster took him and swam to the silly bluestone grouper.
With a distance of five or six meters from the blue spot, he turned off the thruster and took out his speargun.
Holding the speargun steadily, he aimed at the big blue spot that he didn't know the danger was approaching.
Taking advantage of the moment when Big Blue Spot turned around, with a bang, he pulled the trigger, and the fishing arrow flew out like lightning, instantly piercing Blue Spot's head directly!
The big blue spot reflexively struggled in the water twice, then stopped struggling and floated quietly in the seawater.
One shot kills!
Li Xiaofeng found that now he is getting more and more stable!
Collecting the fishing line, he pulled the big green spot back, and the weight was definitely not less than fifteen catties!
Although blue grouper is a relatively cheap type of grouper, it is also a wild grouper after all, and it can be sold for as little as 75 yuan a pound on their side.
Then this fish must be no problem to sell for more than 1,000!
Li Xiaoqiang couldn't help but be a little surprised when he looked at his brother who had been in the water for less than ten minutes and dragged a grouper weighing more than ten pounds up.
It's too good to make money, isn't it? In just a while, more than 1,000 yuan will be earned!
handed the big blue spot to Liu Xuexia and Li Xiaoqiang, and Li Xiaofeng dived into the water again.
After about 20 minutes, Li Xiaofeng floated up again, and this time handed over two fish, one was about ten catties of tiger groupers, and the other was about six or seven catties of red friends.
At this time, Li Xiaoqiang was completely shocked, and in just half an hour, he had harvested nearly 3,000 yuan of fish! It's too good to make money, isn't it?
Thinking about himself, he worked more than ten hours of night work every day, often had to work overtime, and it was only 10,000 yuan a month, and he had an urge to hide his face and cry.
So he hurriedly asked Liu Xuexia, "Mom! Does my brother usually catch so much fish? ”
Liu Xuexia calmly bleed the fish, and at the same time glanced at her shocked little son with disdain and said, "What's so strange about this? Your brother sometimes gains more than that! ”
What's going on with this third child, hasn't he seen the world in the provincial capital? Why did he look like he had never seen the world, and he was shocked when he caught such a fish.
Looking at his mother as if you had never seen her face, looking at herself with contempt, Li Xiaoqiang felt that he had been hurt by 10,000 points!
Is it true that I don't have knowledge?
No, if you all have such a high harvest. Why do so many young people in the village still go out to work?
If you have this harvest, who will go out to work as a hammer worker and go to a hammer class!
Something must be wrong!
Just when Li Xiaoqiang was still puzzled, he found that Li Xiaofeng had sent fish over to the surface of the water again!
This time it's even more!
Just a six or seven catties of red spot grouper, that is, red spot, can be sold for about 2,000!
And that fish, with a long head and a pointed mouth, can't it be a rat spot!
This is a really valuable commodity in grouper, and it can be sold for more than 500 per catty!
This one looks like it's more than three catties, and this can be sold for at least more than 1500!
In addition, there are two cobia that add up to more than 20 catties.
This fish is not worth much, and the two of them together are estimated to sell for five or six hundred.
Five or six hundred?
That's not enough to catch up with two days' salary!
Li Xiaoqiang felt that he was completely confused!
Li Xiaofeng is also very happy, there are really many fish in this sea area that has not been disturbed for a long time!
In just a while, I hit 4 groupers, 1 red friend, and 2 sea licorice!
It's cool to have this thruster, although I have hit so many fish, but my physical strength has not consumed much!
Keep going to the sea and keep up the good work!
Later, Li Xiaoqiang was already completely numb, so he watched his brother hand the fish to the boat for a while.
Liu Xuexia is also very excited today, it has only been more than two hours, and the fish caught by her son today can be sold for a small 20,000 yuan!
