I made a lot of money and spent a lot of money this year.

The most important expense is the Yuanxing 55, this ship is indeed expensive, but if you choose again, Chen Yuan will still spend this money.

In terms of last year's income, it was indeed quite a lot.

But a large part of last year's earnings were luck. Last year's fishing time was about five months, and through these five months of observation, the fish density in the South China Sea is larger than that in many areas of the western Pacific Ocean, not to mention that compared with those well-known foreign fishing grounds.

Fishing can't always rely on luck, resources are king.

Of course, Chen Yuan and his family had tens of millions of fish income last year, and it was not only luck that depended on luck, experience and equipment were equally important.

One of the most important pieces of equipment that made such a big profit last year was remote sensing fish scouting. Then there is the fact that tuna caught inshore can be sold at a higher price because it is fresher.

If you stay in the country, you can basically only fish in the South China Sea.

There are many fishing vessels and few resources in the South China Sea, and there is too much competition.

Then there is Chen Yuan, their fishing is highly targeted, and from the observation of the past few months, Chen Yuan feels that it is not a long-term thing to continue like this. It was only a matter of time before we went out into the ocean.

Back in the dining room, the private room was already served.

Luo Laosi got up and poured them a drink, and said, "I want to participate in the new ship."

Lin Xinhai nodded and looked at Chen Yuan.

Chen Yuan also nodded and said, "No problem."

Luo Lao Si smiled: "Then say okay, I will be ready to sell the old No. 4 fishing boat when I go back."

"Sell it. My two fishing boats are ready to be sold." Lin Xinhai said and looked at Chen Yuan: "Let's calculate how much money we can make up in total."

"5.5 million." Chen Yuandao.

Zhou Sheng scratched his head: "800,000."

"We can also have a Yuanxing 55, if it is an ocean-going fishing boat, the Yuanxing 55 will cost a total of 14.32 million yuan, and this money will be counted in the investment." Chen Yuan said.

Lin Xinhai nodded.

"Your farstar 55." Luo Laosi wanted to say and stopped, a fishing boat, less than 17 meters long, costs 14.32 million yuan.

It's also too expensive.

"There is a good auxiliary boat that helps a lot in fishing. Especially when entering the vast seas, it is necessary to have a high-performance auxiliary vessel." "Even in some well-known fishing grounds, the time spent searching for fish takes up more than half of the entire operation time. Find schools of fish for a good harvest. In this part of finding fish, the amount invested is not too much. For example, some large tuna purse seiners are not only equipped with high-performance support vessels, but even helicopters."

Luo Laosi took a deep breath and nodded, "The choice of the ship? Is it a purse seine or a longline?"

"What do you think?" Lin Xinhai looked at Chen Yuan.

"I like the 53-meter tuna purse seiner, but it needs to be refurbished and refurbished when I get it back." Chen Yuandao: "The 53.75-meter tuna purse seine can go north and south of the Pacific Ocean. It's just the price, it's a bit expensive."

"I can contribute about 20 million."

Luo Laosi looked at Lin Xinhai in shock: "You are so rich?"

Lin Xinhai's old face turned into a chrysanthemum: "I earned more than 10 million last year. I still have two fishing boats, and if I ask Wang Peng and them to make up a little bit, it is not a big problem to come up with 20 million." ….

Last year, Chen Yuan earned 12.37 million, and Lin Xinhai earned more than Chen Yuan. Then two of his fishing boats were sold...... Gather 20 million to come out, the problem is not very big.

"I'll get together up to five million." Luo Lao Sidao.

In this way, a total of 31.3 million yuan can be raised.

The 53.75-meter tuna purse seine boat asked for 46.5 million. This price is not the final price and can be negotiated.

There's also a 10-year Indian Ocean fishing license, and that thing would be worth millions of dollars if it were sold.

Chen Yuan's reluctance to go fishing in the Indian Ocean is mainly no

Familiarity with the sea area is not only because of the lack of understanding of the sea area, but also involves issues such as supply, information exchange, security and so on.

After dinner, several people talked about a series of issues such as capital contribution, shareholding, and management.

"Then build that big ship." Lin Xinhai said: "Although it is expensive, it is a big profit of millions or tens of millions when you come back."

Chen Yuan shook his head: "My suggestion, it's best for us to build a longline fishing boat and an ultra-low temperature transport boat. 53.75 meters, too big. None of us have experience in running large ships, and we should be conservative at first when we go out into the ocean. When you get familiar with the rules and regulations, it's not too late to get on the big boat."

"Longline fishing vessels are not very profitable, and there are no such fishing boats."

"Longline fishing is generally no worse than purse seine boats of the same size. Longline fishing, which focuses on large fish and high-value catches. What's more important is that longline fishing is cheap......" Chen Yuan gave Luo Laosi an example, saying, "For example, fishing in the Nauru Agreement member countries, the purse seine fishing vessel license is 8,000 US dollars per boat per day. Longliners, on the other hand, charge monthly or quarterly."

Chen Yuanzai and Luo Laosi elaborated on the difference between longline fishing boats and purse seine fishing boats.

If you find a school of fish, you can catch a big catch with longlining, if not worse than purse seine nets. Purse seine nets mainly catch pelagic fish, while longline fishing can be adjusted according to the depth at which the fish are located......

Just the longline fishing boat I saw before, I can go to sea with a simple modification.

"I've heard that you can put thousands of hooks in longline fishing at a time?" Luo Laosi asked.

Zhou Sheng laughed out loud: "Thousands of fish hooks are in the offshore waters. If you go abroad and enter the big fishing grounds, you can't put tens of thousands of hooks at a time, and you're sorry for the oil money you go to sea."

Luo Laosi leaned back: "Tens of thousands of fish hooks? How do I do that?"

Lin Xinhai said with a smile: "Even if you are not a professional longline fishing boat, you can put tens of thousands of hooks. The fishing boat we looked at before, the space layout is okay, and there should be no problem with installing 3-5 rope lifters. A rope hoist can collect and store 10-250,000 meters of dry rope."

"Dry rope?"

"The dry rope is the equivalent of the running steel of the purse seine, you see."

Luo Laosi nodded: "That longline fishing boat is also a little ferocious."

Lin Xinhai nodded: "The most important thing for longline fishing boats is to find fish, and when they find fish, they will burst the cabin as soon as they find a rope. There is a shortage of food in the ocean, and the fish are especially good to catch. Compared to purse seine fishing vessels, longlines are suitable for most sea areas."

But in any case, in terms of the ability to catch fish, longline fishing can't do purse seine nets.

Purse seine nets, a net can enclose an area of hundreds of acres. Then there is the use of fish collectors, in the ocean, it is normal to catch dozens of tons of fish in a net, hundreds of tons, hundreds of tons of fish, it is not difficult to see.

Longline fishing also has its own advantages.

How to say it, the two have their own advantages and disadvantages, and it is not good to compare them directly.
