Chapter 220: Fishing
"What are you doing, Husley?"
From Husley's coat of arms came the voice of Pasbai.
Ever since they spotted the fish, they had been loosening their watchful eye on the fish, and they had also been keeping an eye on Husley's movements. It's not bad, probably to avoid being discovered by Jiayi and them again, and he doesn't know anything at all.
The men on board saw Husley's movements from a distance through binoculars, and reported them to Pasbai, who came to ask.
When Husley heard this, he returned: "We're fishing, you see, the fish are under our boat, and we want to try to catch a net and verify the effect of sonar." ”
Passerbay was also next to the sonar in the captain's room at this time, and witnessed a school of fish caught in the net cast by the captain opposite, but after the fish were caught together, it was impossible to tell how many there were.
"I saw it, and it looked like it was getting a lot out of it. ”
Husley also saw it in the sonar, and said happily, "Yes, do you want to cast a net and see." ”
Passerbai shook his head, but immediately remembered that he couldn't see the other side, and hurriedly said: "No need, it's good to ask you for some when the time comes, there are only so many people on the two boats, and they can't eat more, and there is still food on the boat." ”
"It's fine. ”
After Husley finished speaking, he and a group of people all ran to the deck, and saw that the captain was pulling the net with a few sailors, and at this time, even the four people in charge of the paddle wheel power in the bilge also ran out, except for a few necessary ones who were responsible for the direction of the ship, all ran out, and now, the ship is drifting with the tide.
The captain shouted and pulled the nets one by one, and Husley, seeing that they were a little struggling, blessed them with the power of a brute bull to increase their strength. Sure enough, after this, the speed of pulling the net increased a lot.
The captain looked up at Husley with a smile: "Master Mo, I have gained a lot now, before I became a captain, if I could catch so many fish in one net, I would be happy for several days." ”
Hughesley's surname is Mo, the whole process of Hughsley Mo, the captain's family was originally a fisherman by the water, living by fishing, and feeding the captain's brothers and sisters Five children, but later the old lord passed away, his son did not understand the economy, the taxes were too heavy, and he couldn't fill his stomach when fishing, the captain ran out to run his life, joined a merchant ship of the Chamber of Commerce as a sailor, step by step, from the sailor to the deputy, and finally became the captain, and later became the captain of the cargo ship resident in the academy in the Chamber of Commerce.
This is because you can often come into contact with the mage, which is not bad, even if you can get some leftovers and defective potions, you can also make a small fortune, and it is not bad to accumulate over time. It would be nice to be able to have a good relationship with a mage, but most of the time, it's a good idea.
When the captain saw that he could catch such a large net so easily, he couldn't help but think of the life of sitting in the stern of his father's boat and watching his parents fish. At that time, if you can have such a good harvest so easily, maybe you can still live, and you don't have to wander outside.
However, if you don't go out, you can't become a captain, although you have suffered a lot in the middle, but now you can live much better than fishing at home, you are not rich, you can be regarded as worry-free, and you can find a job for your brother.
If Jia Yi knew, he would have defined their current class as the middle class, which of course, does not count as political status.
Soon, this large net fish was pulled to the deck, it was really a big net fish, the captain had never seen it in his life, it turned out that he could catch such a large net of fish in one net. There is a ribbon in the middle of the side line of the body of these fish, mainly red, called rainbow ribbon fish, Jiayi is also called red ribbon fish in their hometown, he caught it when he was a child fishing, but it is not as big as here, he still knows for the first time, it turns out that these fish live in groups.
Jia Yi looked along the fishing net, there were more than 20 fish in the net, each of which had at least ten catties, and this net was at least two or three hundred catties.
"That's too much, isn't it?" muttered a classmate who had just come up from the bilge, "where do you put this?"
This is really a problem that has to be considered, although this ship was originally a fast cargo ship, there are not many places to put the goods, more than 20 fish is not a problem at all, but the fish will be bad, even if the temperature is not high now, it cannot be placed for a long time.
When the captain heard this, he was also a little embarrassed, and the joy he had just gained turned into distress.
"Otherwise, if we draw a frost circle in the bilge, find a special cabin to use as a storage room, and then imitate ice cubes in the barrel, and put the fish in it, there will be no problem. Jia Yi said on the side.
In fact, it's just a freezer to come out, and there are 10 mages on board, so it's not a problem to maintain a frost circle at all.
Husley nodded and said, "That's a good suggestion, we have this pantry, we can also store some fresh meat in it, and we don't have to worry about spoiling." ”
He looked up at the people around him and said, "Jiayi, you go back and continue to look at the sonar, this can't be relaxed, March and Jieliya, the two of you go to make ice cubes and put them in the bucket, the four who maintain the power continue to go to the bilge to maintain the power, and the remaining two help the captain to deal with the fish, and I will go to find a cabin to draw a frost circle." ”
When Jia heard this, he immediately retracted back to the workbench in the captain's room, he didn't want to be assigned to the work of handling fish, if one or two were fine, and dozens of them were processed, his body would be full of fishy smell, and it was impossible for his clothes to be clean.
These fish are very large, and they will be frozen soon, and before they are frozen, they need to be cleaned of the internal organs and fish blood, otherwise they will be frozen together, and it will be difficult to deal with later.
As Husley approached the cabin, he communicated with Passerbai with his badge, telling him to come and see the fish he had caught, and to take some back, he didn't want to eat fish all the time for the rest of his life, and the sonar was so good that he could catch some more when he wanted to. It's just that the sonar still has some defects, it's okay to find fish, although you can only find big fish, but you can't do anything about crabs and the like, crabs crawl close to the ground, mixed with silt and stones at the bottom of the river, it's hard to find.
After contacting Passerbai, Husley had the ship move towards Passerbay and then got out of the cabin.
After receiving the news, Passerbai on the other side said to Lana, who was in charge of listening to the sonar, "Husley, they have finished catching the fish over there, and they have told us to go and get the fish." ”
After speaking, he raised his head and shouted loudly outside the cabin: "Captain Modou, move the boat closer to the captain of the fishing line, let's go see their harvest, be careful not to bump into it." ”
This last sentence is simply redundant, the captains are much more experienced, as long as it is not operated by Passerbay himself, there is no possibility of collision.
Lana looked at the sonar again, pointed to the fish, and said, "They've only had one net, and that's the end of it?" ”
There are indeed a lot of fish in the school of fish, although the net just caught a lot of fish, and the school of fish was also scattered and ran, but it didn't go far and gathered again, it was still a large group, and it seemed that the number did not decrease at all.
Although there are two places around Lake Taburnina, the Academy Town and the North Water City, and there are several small villages around the North Water City, there are not many fishermen who make a living from fishing, because with the back of the college, doing some business can make a lot more money than fishing, and the magic elements here are very strong, and the fish industry resources in the lake are still very rich.
Whether it's the type or the quantity, of course, the number of Warcraft is actually quite a lot, but the power is not right, of course, this was the past, and now no one can say.
Paser came over and looked at it, and sighed: "There are indeed a lot, but we are not fishermen, enough food is enough, what are you doing when you catch so much, do you want to catch up and catch up with the next net?"
"Forget it, I'm not a fisherman, just go and see what you can catch on the other side of Husley. ”
Lana borrowed the words of Pasebai and said that the fishing they had just done was not for either side, and for them it was more for fun.
