Chapter Thirty-Six: The Fishing Boat in the Early Morning
Chen Yuan put on a wetsuit, put on fins, an underwater lamp, carried a large net pocket around his waist, and then took a speargun......
"Stay safe." Lin Xinhai admonished again.
"Don't worry." Chen Yuan came to the side of the boat, took a few deep breaths, took a big breath, tilted his head and entered the sea first, and disappeared into the sea.
Zhou Sheng held a harpoon in one hand and a rock in the other......
During this time, the fish are mostly sleeping and have the least vitality. Zhou Sheng has already caught two octopuses, and there are still a few fish in the net pocket.
When Chen Yuan saw him, he swam over first, and shouted a few times.
Zhou Sheng turned his head when he heard the sound and was startled, spit out a few bubbles in his mouth, patted his chest with his hand, and then pointed to the rock hole in front of him and gestured twice.
Chen Yuan swam over, saw an eel head bigger than a fist, lifted the speargun and threw it directly. The stainless steel speargun has barbs and hits the eel's head with precision......
Zhou Sheng whined excitedly, put down the harpoon and gave Chen Yuan two thumbs up, and then hurriedly grabbed the harpoon.
Chen Yuan smiled and swam over and grabbed the speargun......
Moray eels in the open sea, in the coral reef area, are mostly fierce and have sharp teeth.
Chen Yuan stabbed the eel in the head with a shot, and the head of the spear plunged into the rock, and the moray eel was still struggling, and it didn't move for a while.
Chen Yuan took out the speargun and brought the moray eel together.
This moray eel is big enough, its head is bigger than a fist, and its body is more than a meter long.
Zhou Sheng pointed to it, Chen Yuan understood, and Zhou Sheng surfaced.
The fishing boat was not far away, and the two swam over.
"Why did you come down?" Zhou Sheng asked.
"Master is awake, don't worry about you, I'll come down and watch." Chen Yuan said.
"There's a lot of fish down there." Zhou Sheng said: "I saw the big eastern star spot just now, I'll look for it later." "He wanted to catch it, but he didn't.
"How old?"
"More than ten or twenty pounds."
"Shoot it." Chen Yuan swam to the side of the boat and said.
"Didn't you get it?" Zhou Shengdao.
"Did you see blue spots? In the sea fishing video I watched before, someone caught a big blue spot here. ”
"You mean rat spots?"
"Yes."
"I don't see it...... There must be very few of them. ”
When they went to sea before, Chen Yuan and they caught a big blue spot, which was an oblique grouper, which was only a few dozen yuan and 1 catty, which was not expensive.
Rat spots, also called blue spots in some places, are expensive. The larger ones are basically hundreds or more than 1,000 yuan.
"Got rat spots?" Lin Xinhai walked over.
"There's a big eastern spotted underneath, and it's not marked." Zhou Sheng handed over the net bag, and the harpoon was also thrown up.
Chen Yuan's speargun still had a big eel hanging on it, and he handed it directly to Lin Xinhai......
Waiting for Lin Xinhai to change their equipment back, the two dived to the bottom of the sea again......
Not long after entering the water, Chen Yuan saw three eastern star spots, all of which were less than 1 catty. There were also a few ordinary groupers, which were average in size and could grow longer, and Chen Yuan didn't move them.
Chen Yuan and Zhou Sheng lined up to look for Dadong star groupers, and during this time, they picked up a few octopuses, picked up a few snails, and inserted a few unlucky fish.
The Great Eastern Star Spotted ran away and didn't see it......
After a few dives, it's already dawn.
There were more than a dozen octopuses, and they went to sea mainly to catch octopuses. There were three red eastern star spots, as well as a few red spotted groupers, and some nice fish, squid.
The sky glowed red.
Chen Yuan and Zhou Sheng came to the side of the boat with the last harvest and threw the spearguns and harpoons on them......
Lin Xinhai pulled them along, and the two returned to the boat and took off their diving suits.
"I'll go take a shower first." Chen Yuan said.
"Hurry up and ......"
Chen Yuan smiled and went back to the cabin and simply rinsed himself.
Zhang Cheng and Meng Jianshan had already woken up, and they went to bed relatively early last night...... I went to bed after eleven o'clock.
"It's dawn." Zhang Cheng said.
Chen Yuan said 'um', went in to find clean clothes to put on, and said, "It's still early, at least after nine o'clock to start fishing." ”
"Sleep a little longer." Meng Jianshan Road.
Chen Yuan went outside: "You took a bath and slept again." Master, you can also go in and rest for a while. ”
"You're not sleepy, aren't you?" Lin Xinhai said.
"I just got off the sea, and I'm very energetic." Chen Yuan said: "When you wake up, I will go to sleep." ”
"Good ......"
Zhou Sheng slept for two hours last night, and if he didn't rest, it was going to be dawn.
They all went into the cabin, Chen Yuan found Zhou Sheng's brush yesterday, cleaned the fish on the deck, took out the fish to eat in the morning, brushed the conch, and threw it into the pot...... Pour in mineral water.
In a pot under cold water, throw in a few slices of ginger......
Light soy sauce, mustard, ginger...... Stir and stir, a simple bowl of dipping water.
Take out another pot, throw in some rice, and simmer over low heat. Then I processed an eastern star spotted in his early 1 catty, a small squid...... When it boils, the squid meat is thrown along with the fish meat and boiled in a simple pot of porridge.
The conch is already cooked.
Chen Yuan took out the conch meat and dipped it in the water...... Refreshed and sober.
The sky is getting brighter and brighter, and the rising glow is a little dazzling.
A fishing boat passed by Chen Yuan, and a dark-skinned man stood at the stern of the boat, shouting, "Pretty boy, how was last night's harvest?" ”
Listening to the accent, the other party is not Cantonese, but he is called a beautiful boy, Chen Yuan was very happy, and replied: "The harvest is not bad." ”
"How many squid?"
"More than a hundred pounds."
"To sell or not to sell?"
"How much is 1 catty?"
"Forty."
Lin Xinhai heard a voice come out of the cabin and said, "Forty is too cheap." ”
"How much do you say?"
"Forty-five." Hayashi Shinkaido.
"It's too expensive. I'll take it back and sell it for forty-five. ”
"Our squid is frozen." Lin Xinhai said: "Do you want to." ”
"Yes."
Lin Xinhai looked at Chen Yuan: "Don't sell it?" ”
"Sell it."
"Good...... Wait a minute. Lin Xinhai went in and called He Fei and the others up, and when they heard that they were selling squid, the group walked out of the cabin.
Forty bucks is not bad.
This is at sea, not on land.
Now you can sell the freezer free......
The other party's fishing boat was more than 20 meters away, and the fishing boat was fixed next to the other party's fishing boat, and Lin Xinhai boarded the fishing boat......
This time, only squid is sold.
In the morning, Chen Yuan caught a few groupers (for breakfast) and moray eels, which were sold at a better price.
The fishing boats came from Hainan, one place and one market. 40 yuan is also good, the important thing is that the freezer can be freed.
Chen Yuan and Zhou Sheng's total is 137 catties, 5,500 yuan.
He Fei and they totaled 52 catties and 2,100 yuan.
Zhang Cheng was the least, only 22 catties, which was originally 880 yuan, because there was no change...... Gave 900 yuan.
After getting the money, Chen Yuan and their fishing boat left the fishing boat and watched the fishing boat go away.
"I'm still a little more than a thousand dollars away from going ashore." He Fei said with a smile.
"We're already ashore." Yang Xun smiled and said, "Brother Zhang Cheng, you still have to work hard." ”
"Fight for one to get ashore. I'm going to catch a big grouper today......," Zhang Cheng said.
The sun has risen.
Zhou Sheng smelled the fragrance, went in and took the bowl, came out and served a bowl, hehe smiled: "Fragrant." ”
"Is there too much?" He Fei said: "I'm a little hungry. ”
"It's gone...... There are ingredients in the fish box, so you can do it yourself. Chen Yuan said: "You were all sleeping just now, I didn't cook too much." ”
"Hey, eat the Eastern Star Spotted ...... morning" Meng Jianshan was also hungry, opened the box and looked at it.
Inside there are two eastern star groupers, three red spot groupers, and some trash fish.
In front of the grouper, the other fish are trash fish......
Yang Xun also went over to take a look, and turned his head to look at Chen Yuan who was eating: "The moray eels in the freezer and these, you all dived down to hunt?" Yang asked.
Chen Yuan ate fish porridge and said, "The main thing is to catch some live octopus as bait, and groupers are all incidental." ”
