Chapter 226: Pirates
"I guess I'm not going to be happy when Pepper comes." Char teased.
"Just some assistants." Tony emphasized, "There's so much work you can do without one or two helpers. ”
Char smiled, and he looked at the treasure chest that Tony was carrying.
"What did you bring?"
Tony silently placed the box on the ground and took out a few sea rods directly from it.
Char got up and took the sea rod from his hand, and looked at it carefully, the rod felt very good, there was a cold feeling when you held it, and there were some beautiful wood grains on the pole.
What kind of tree is Char of Alvac is actually not clear, it is estimated that there is no such thing in the world, its wood grain is very similar to the golden silk nanmu, but it is more neat.
As Tony said, the branches are very tough, and you have to use special tools to cut them.
"There are a lot of fish in the deep sea that are more than a few tens of kilograms in size, but you and I are not ordinary people, so I don't have anything else with me, and I don't have to be fixed to the fence."
Char nodded.
As he spoke, Tony soon spotted the sardines in a bucket placed on the ground on one side.
His eyes lit up, "It's still a golden sardine." ”
"Tuna like something brighter." Char said.
"Looks like you've understood."
He looked up.
"But the place you chose is not very good, there are no seabirds circling, which means that there are no fish here."
"There was just that." Char said.
He pointed to the sea and golden eagle on the scaffolding on one side, "This place was found by these two children, and after they came here, the seabirds here were scared away." ”
Tony nodded, "No wonder. ”
The golden eagle and Haidongqing are both top-tier birds of prey and are the natural enemies of these birds.
"I also made some special bait today." Tony said excitedly.
He fumbled through the box again, and directly took out a small box, which was wrapped in bait, and he didn't know what was put in it.
He threw the bait directly into the sea, and then threw it in several directions.
After the bait was thrown into the sea at the end of the castle, it was quickly dispersed by the waves stirred by the propellers behind the castle, forming a very tempting fan-shaped bait net.
Soon, he saw a school of churning fish, but instead of tuna, he had sardines.
"There are schools of fish here." Tony said excitedly.
Seeing these schools of fish means that the tuna must be nearby.
He threw a small golden sardine directly on a sea hook and threw it into the sea.
Char also learned from him and threw it in.
"Tuna in this era should not have been overfished, so there should still be bluefin tuna in this area."
Tony muttered softly.
"You say, can we catch this kind of big guy."
Atlantic bluefin tuna is the largest species of tuna. With a body length of up to 3 meters and a weight of up to 4,000 kilograms, it is an absolute behemoth.
Needless to say, the price is not to be said, hundreds of thousands of bases, millions are common things.
It was already evening when Tony arrived, so the night soon covered the sky, and Char used his magic to shoot a ball of light into the sky as a light.
However, the main light is on the surface of the sea, and just as the light attracts insects, it can also attract fish closer.
They fiddle with their fishing rods to disguise the freshness of the sardines, which the tuna likes to eat as fast as they do.
Alicia picked up the boiling water on the side, poured herself and Isabel a cup of tea, and watched them fish.
Isabel picked up the teacup and blew on the hot air on it, then looked at the two of them and teased at Alicia.
"It is estimated that in the eyes of these two people now, a big beauty like you is not as important as a big fish."
Alicia disapplauded, blowing the hot air from the tea cup in her hand, "People always have to have some hobbies, don't they?" ”
Isabel shrugged.
Soon, there was movement in the sea in the distance!
Hai Dongqing, who was standing on the scaffolding, was a little restless, flapped his wings and let out a slight cry.
Not for a moment.
The 2.1-meter-long sea rod in Char's hand was moved.
At that moment, Char felt a huge pull, and the sea rod bent like a bow downwards instantly, with the intention of taking Char into the sea.
"What, tuna?" Tony asked.
Char didn't speak, but used the core of his waist and abdomen to successfully pull the target of the bite to within 20 meters.
The sea churned, and a brown, yellow, and white shadow rose into the sky, and then fell again.
"Huo, such a big grouper." Tony exclaimed, the fish must have weighed at least sixty or seventy pounds, twice as big as the big cod he had caught before, almost a meter or so.
Due to the size of this grouper, the struggle was even more violent, but it obviously couldn't escape Char's power.
He didn't use too much magic to strengthen himself, nor did he rely on the tenacity of the fishing rod to directly forcibly pick up the grouper, but consumed physical strength with the grouper and slowly retracted the line.
Soon, the big fish was successfully pulled to the side of the courtyard, and then, Char's arm was violently forced, and with the splashing water, the fish was thrown directly to the grass.
Crash! Crash!
Even when it reached the boat, the fish struggled violently and kept fluttering.
Some splashes even hit Alicia's side.
It is a classic grouper, oblong in shape, flattened on the sides, and the head is longer than the body height; The dorsal fin has strong spines and is connected to the fins, the mouth is particularly large, and the teeth of the two jaws are inverted.
Grouper meat is very delicious, low fat, high protein, in Hong Kong and Macao is considered one of the four famous fish in China.
It is a high-end feast must-have first-class edible fish, like this grouper, it is not a problem to sell for seven or eight thousand.
In addition, there are many such high-value marine fish in the ocean, not to mention that the ocean is full of gold.
"Looks like dinner is available tonight." Char laughed.
He looked at Alicia, "Can you handle it?" ”
Alicia got up and raised her hand, and the fish floated, and she took the fish to Cassifer's side and placed it on the cutting board, which was so big that it looked a little small.
However, Alicia handled it very calmly, she picked up the fish cutter, cut the belly of the fish, removed the internal organs, and threw some of the internal organs upwards in two parts.
With the sound of an eagle, Hai Dongqing and the golden eagle flew down from above, grabbed the internal organs in the air and brought them back to their nests to enjoy.
The grouper was huge, not to mention the internal organs, and the rest of the internal organs Alicia was thrown to Cassifer to eat.
Cassifer didn't dislike it, he swallowed the entrails in one bite and chewed them in his mouth, and ate them deliciously.
The grouper was too big for them to eat, but they had an ice cellar, so Alicia only cut it in half and separated the flesh and bones.
Sea fish have no small spines, and she carefully divides them into back meat, belly meat, and fish ribs.
Then she took a frying pan from one side of the wall and placed it on Cassifer.
She slowly fried a part of the fish in butter over low heat, sizzling, and the fat in the fish was intertwined with the vegetable oil, and the white smoke wafted on the deck, and the aroma was fragrant.
Char sat back in his place, and even Tony, who was in love with the tuna at the moment, couldn't help but be attracted by the aroma at the moment, and his stomach growled.
He came in a hurry, so he didn't have any food when he came, and he didn't have anything in his stomach.
He fastened his rod to the fence and sat down at the table.
Soon, Alicia brought the pan-fried grouper fillet.
Tony couldn't wait to pick up the fork and stick it into his mouth.
The grouper was caught half an hour ago.
The muscles on its body are even twitching before the fillets are fried, and the freshness goes without saying.
And the grouper itself has a very good meat quality, even if there is no seasoning to fry it, the sweetness still overflows his mouth, the outside is charred and the inside is tender, the fish meat is like cotton, and the fresh and tender one melts.
Char took a bottle of wine from under the table and poured it into his and Tony's glasses.
"At this time, it's the best time to drink this pirate wine."
Pirate liquor is rum, and it was the favorite drink of the pirates of the past.
Tony picked up the bottle and took a big sip, and the wine brewed by the god of wine naturally didn't need to be said, he directly showed a look of intoxication.
"I can now feel the freedom of sailors and pirates to drink and talk freely on the ocean in the Age of Discovery." Tony leaned back and enjoyed it.
He opened his eyes and asked curiously, "Speaking of which, are there any pirates around here?" ”
"Definitely." Isabel said, "It's the point where the Mediterranean Sea meets the Atlantic, there are a lot of merchant ships, and I used to get a lot of news about pirates when I was dealing with government affairs. ”
"Is that so," Tony looked around, "did you say we could meet tonight?" ”
"Who knows." Char sipped rum and smiled, "However, if you do meet it, it may be an interesting thing."
