The sea will open on the 12th of next month, and there are 18 days left.

Lin Xinhai still has a lot to prepare.

Lin Xinhai's two fishing boats had to install high-power refrigeration equipment, which was very time-consuming. Slide bars are also installed......

Tuna purse seine nets, 1700 m long purse seine nets with a depth of ...... That is, the width also reaches 270 meters.

This is a specially customized purse seine net, and this seine is worth more than 400,000 yuan.

This net, not counting the weight of the sunken, is 21 tons. The volume should be about 200 cubic meters.

Lin Xinhai's fishing boat is not an advanced modern purse seine fishing boat, and it is very troublesome to put the purse seine net into the net hold. Therefore, a slide bar in the middle of the aft deck is installed......

The slide bar is also called the lifting slide bar, which can be used to put the net and collect the net.

The branch poles on the aft deck, the lifting poles, also had to be replaced.

……

"I will bear 40% of all the expenses and 40% of the profits." Lin Xinhai said.

Contributions, dividends, these things Lin Xinhai said before, and now I will say it again, and the matter will be determined.

It's not easy to do fishing boats now.

There are fewer fish in the offshore area, so if you run farther away, it is easy to lose money if you don't do well.

However, in the first month of opening the sea, the probability of losing money is very small.

Looking for Chen Yuan to cooperate with them, Lin Xinhai took a fancy to Chen Yuan's ability to find fish.

How to find fish at sea is not only a science, but also a special study of eyesight and observation.

In the previous fleet, Chen Yuan was second to none to find fish, and his luck was particularly good.

Lin Xinhai sold two fishing boats, as well as fishing nets and other equipment, and invested another 40 percent to take away 40 percent of the profits, which is very generous.

Chen Yuan nodded, indicating that there was no problem.

Zhou Sheng looked at Chen Yuan and said, "The remaining sixty percent of the expenditure, half of us." Income, you account for 60%, I 40%, how about it? ”

"I'm two percent more than you, and we invest fifty-fifty, will you feel unbalanced?" Chen Yuan looked at Zhou Sheng.

"There's a little bit of imbalance." Zhou Sheng spread his hands: "Who made you a technician?" ”

"You are also a technician...... Chen Yuan said with a smile: "I am 5.5, you are 4.5." I'll be able to accomplish you more...... Take two percent more, if you don't find a big school of fish when you go out, your mentality will not explode. ”

"I'm the stingy person you say?" Zhou Sheng laughed as he spoke: "Okay, you have more than one percent of me, and you are not allowed to regret it." ”

"During this period of time to recover physical exercise, this time the sea is indispensable for diving." Chen Yuandao.

"Yes. Don't you know what I'm capable of, don't worry...... Leave the underwater work to me, and it's easy. ”

"There are at least three people working underwater." Lin Xinhai looked at Chen Yuan.

Chen Yuan nodded: "There are no three people underwater. I'll just go down with Zhou Sheng......"

Lin Xinhai thought for a while and nodded: "It's okay." Is it enough to bring 3 tons of Antarctic shrimp and 3 tons of small fish to the sea this time? ”

"Enough. Running not very far, bringing so much, are you ready to sell fish at sea? Chen Yuan asked.

"Let's see what kind of fish you're caught. If it's all a bargain, then it's sold at sea......"

"The tuna purse seine nets have been bought, and I will definitely get tuna this time." Zhou Sheng said with a smile.

Lin Xinhai also smiled and looked forward to it: "I will be on the list of people who will go to sea in the next few days...... I used to pay 400 yuan a day, and I knew all the acquaintances. If the catch is good, some bonuses will be given. What do you think? ”

The wages on offshore fishing boats are generally not high, and 400 yuan a day is already very good.

At present, many boat bosses do not make much money, and there are even cases where they pay money to raise fishing boats...... The wages given to sailors, naturally, will not be very high.

Not to mention the near sea, even if it is an ocean-going boatman, not all of them are well-paid.

Chen Yuan: They used to be in the distant-water fleet of a large distant-water fishing company...... One more catch to get that much money.

In the case of private distant-water fishing vessels with a company or independently operated fishing vessels of small companies, the remuneration is usually not high......

There is a reason why Lin Xinhai gave this treatment, after all, he gave a salary slightly higher than the market price, and every time the fishing boat returned to port, as long as it made money, he would also give some bonuses to the workers.

Lin Xinhai is looking for all familiar hands and acquaintances, some of whom are neighbors and relatives. Either it's the neighbor's neighbor, the neighbor's neighbor's.

Like Lin Xinhai, he left the ocean-going fleet because he was stabbed.

The work on the fishing boat is very hard, and there are many people who rush to work on the boat, and many people can't stand the suffering, and their temper will become very irritable......

Chen Yuan also likes the crew configuration like Lin Xinhai, everyone knows the roots, and they are all skilled workers, so it will be easier to work.

Although the South China Sea is not a far sea, it is necessary to be prepared to stay on the ship for more than ten days, or even a month or two.

If you pull up a patchwork team temporarily, it's okay to run near the sea, but it's far away...... The main reason is that staying at sea for a long time is prone to problems.

Just like Chen Yuan and Zhou Sheng, they also worked on the company's offshore fishing boats for more than half a year before they entered the ocean-going fleet.

Chen Yuan nodded and said, "There is no problem with the salary, there are more fish, you can give more bonuses." But to be honest, as far as I know, the probability of finding large tuna in the South China Sea is not very high. ”

"In November last year, a fishing boat netted 117 tons of yellowfin tuna in the South China Sea." Lin Xinhai glared, and continued: "However, they don't have ultra-low temperature freezers on board, and those tuna are no longer fresh when they return to the port, and the price per catty is only 25 yuan." ”

"117 tons in one net?" Zhou Sheng was excited and said, "Really? ”

"Really. I still know the owner ......."

"Why don't you sell it at sea?"

"The offer at sea was $35 and he sold some. But I felt that the price was cheap, and I kept some ......" Lin Xinhai said and shrugged: "I was also stimulated by him, so I thought about fighting for a hand of tuna." ”

117 tons, as long as the size is slightly good, properly preserved...... The price per catty may even be hundreds of yuan. This is properly preserved and dealt with in time, and then it is frozen at ultra-low temperature of minus sixty or seventy degrees.

Let's put it this way, as long as it's not ultra-low temperature preserved, it's not worth anything. can be sold for 25 yuan and 1 catty, which is considered good.

In the South China Sea, a net of 117 tons of tuna is unlikely.

But if Lin Xinhai said it, it shouldn't be fake.

Zhou Sheng looked at Chen Yuan and said with a smile: "One hundred tons of nets, you have to come on." We only need to catch a net, and we can walk away from the tender model club. ”

"You just dream." Chen Yuan looked at Lin Xinhai as he said and said.

The large schools of yellowfin tuna don't have to think too much, it's all a matter of luck. You can bet on mackerel, sardines, and bonito.

On their side, the flood season for purse seine operations in offshore areas should be from December to April of the following year, with February and March being the peak season......

But now there are too many fishing boats, and when the sea is opened, tens of thousands of fishing boats go to sea...... Think about that scene. Nowadays, the offshore sea is already very difficult to seine netting, so you have to go outside to find cruising fish, or use light to lure fish purse seine.

Lin Xinhai approached Chen Yuan to cooperate with them, firstly, he was stimulated by a net of 117 tons of yellowfin tuna last year, and secondly, Chen Yuan could find fish and could also share the risk.

Tuna purse seine nets, this thing is troublesome to operate.

It takes luck to find tuna, but if you have luck, you also need to be in command.

He was looking for only a few boatmen who could make such 270-meter-high fishing nets.

If you are lucky enough to come across a school of tuna, if you don't do it properly, you'll regret it.

How to say it, investing hundreds of thousands of yuan in a fishing net can bring the opportunity to get rich overnight. But this opportunity requires a combination of luck and strength......

Lin Xinhai also knows that there is little hope of finding a large school of tuna, let alone a net of 100 tons. As long as you can get more than a dozen tons of tuna in one net, it is also quite beautiful.
