Chapter 134: All the way south
It wasn't until Li Xiaoliang came over to call him for dinner that Li Xiaofeng said goodbye to his reluctant mother and put down the phone.
Liu Xuexia, who put down the phone, quickly called Wang Yucui and Zhang Jianjun's wife Yu Xiuyun, reported their safety, and told them the good news of a bumper harvest on the fishing boat.
After receiving the call, the two of them were also very happy, and they let go of their hearts that hung every day.
This is really a one-person voyage, and the whole family is worried.
Today's dinner on the fishing boat is still based on seafood.
The chef made two dishes of freshly caught cod, pan-fried cod and grilled cod.
The freshly caught three-eyed crab is also steamed in a large pot for everyone, and it is served with the chef's own secret sauce, which tastes delicious and delicious.
Also what stir-fried octopus, braised eel......
Since he didn't have to work tonight, Li Xiaofeng asked the two crew members to go to the cabin and bring a few boxes of beer.
After opening the beer, everyone took a big sip together, and then dinner officially began.
The atmosphere at the dinner table is very relaxed, you can eat when you want to eat, you can eat when you want to eat, and if you want to drink, you can find each other.
Someone came to Li Xiaofeng for a drink, and he didn't refuse.
In fact, Li Xiaofeng can also drink a lot of wine, and the reason why he usually doesn't drink alcohol is mainly because although he can drink a lot of wine, he has never been able to drink what is good for wine.
Anyway, whether it is good wine or bad wine, it is spicy in his mouth.
In the past, he sometimes had to drink because of the need to do business and social reasons, but he was really unloving to drink.
Now that he is at home, he no longer needs to drink for entertainment, he drinks a little when he is happy, and he doesn't drink when he is unhappy.
Everyone was eating, chatting, and joking.
You can eat as much as you want, drink as you want, and you can drink as much as you want. And according to the rules of their fishing boats, they are not allowed to drink.
Speaking of persuading alcohol, Li Xiaofeng also hated it.
Many people go to other people's houses to drink, and the host is generally afraid that the guests will not drink well, and treat the guests slowly, so they like to persuade them to drink.
This is the case with one of Li Xiaofeng's relatives, who went to his relative's house for dinner, and the relative kept urging him to drink, and finally he got drunk.
When the relatives saw that he was drunk, they didn't think much about it, so they directly helped him to lie down on his bed. But no one thought that he would never wake up again after being drunk.
Li Xiaofeng happened to be at home at the time, so he accompanied his parents to watch it. Only in his forties, his relatives in the prime of life lay on the mat at the door, with their faces blue and blue, next to the miserable crying orphans and widows and the parents of the white-haired man sending the black-haired man.
In the end, the two relatives, who had a very good relationship, fell out because of this, and even went to the court.
Since then, Li Xiaofeng has never been persuaded to drink anymore!
The meal lasted more than an hour before it ended.
After eating, everyone dispersed on the boat.
Li Yonglin, Li Yongmin, Zhang Jianjun and Master Wei sat in the smoking room of the ship, smoking and chatting together.
Because there is no mobile phone signal, some people lie down in the dormitory to watch the movies they have downloaded in advance.
Li Xiaoliang led three crew members to play cards together, and there were several onlookers standing next to him.
However, when Li Xiaofeng got on the boat, he had already told everyone in advance that it was okay to have fun playing cards, but gambling on the boat was absolutely not allowed!
So no one violated this rule today, and everyone was playing with a losing sticker note.
After a while, two crew members had notes all over their faces, and there was no place to paste them, so they were replaced, and the two crew members next to them hurriedly made up for it.
Li Xiaofeng also looked at the side with great interest for a while, and then returned to the cockpit and nested in the cockpit to study the charts.
The fish in the sea are not evenly distributed, but there are many fish in some places and few in others, so fishing grounds are formed in places where many fish schools are concentrated.
In China, there are four major fishing grounds, which are the Yellow and Bohai Sea Fishing Grounds (mainly distributed in the Bohai Sea and the Yellow Sea), Zhoushan Fishing Grounds (East China Sea Areas), South China Sea Fishing Grounds (Guangdong, Hainan Coast), and Beibu Gulf Fishing Grounds (Guangxi Beibu Gulf Fisheries).
And that's just the big picture, and there are countless regional fishing grounds like some of them.
It's just that because of the overfishing in recent years, many fishing grounds have become unworthy of their name.
Although many fishing grounds are now extinct in name, these charts still have some guiding significance.
As a qualified captain, he will also record the places where he usually finds some large schools of fish on nautical charts.
In addition, the captains of some fishing boats will also exchange some fish information in high frequency, although these messages may not be accurate, but Li Xiaofeng will also record them, and later have the opportunity to verify them.
After researching and studying, Li Xiaofeng finally made up his mind that the fishing boat would continue to drive south tomorrow, after all, because the weather is getting colder, many fish are moving southward and deeper into the ocean.
After making up his mind, Li Xiaofeng went back to his captain's room to sleep. He was the only one on the fishing boat, and the rest of the crew was two people.
In terms of this accommodation condition, it is already very good among fishing boats, and many fishing boats with poor conditions have crew rooms in lattice rooms.
It's the kind of cabin that is divided into small compartments, and one compartment can barely sleep a person.
Many boat owners can't help it, after all, the space on the fishing boat is really limited, and even they can only sleep in the cockpit.
When I woke up early the next morning, the wind and rain had stopped, and a round of morning sun was rising from the east.
The wind is calm, the sun is shining, and today is another good day for fishing.
After washing up and having some breakfast, Li Xiaofeng returned to the cockpit, Li Yonglin, Li Yongmin, and Zhang Jianjun were also there.
Seeing Li Xiaofeng coming in, Li Yonglin asked, "Fengku, I saw you studying the nautical chart yesterday, which direction are we going to drive today?" ”
"I'm going to continue south." Li Xiaofeng replied with a smile.
"It's good to go south, because it's cold now, and a lot of fish are going south with the currents." Li Yongmin said with a smile.
"This is called three days after spring fish go north, and three days after autumn fish go south!" Zhang Jianjun also said with a smile.
"Three days in spring, fish go north, and three days in autumn, fish go south." This sentence seems simple, but it is the experience of fishermen in the long-term production and life process.
Every year, due to changes in seasons and ocean currents, fish in the sea migrate en masse in order to adapt to the water temperature, which is called fish temperature migration.
Since the four of them agreed, Li Xiaofeng turned on the radio and told the crew to get ready.
Then he started the fishing boat, began to slowly accelerate, set sail, and headed south.
