Rushing to the sea: I can see the prompts

Chapter 230 Auron

Next time something like this happens again, I feel like it’s better to resolve it privately, and don’t involve the authorities, which will make you feel cowardly and make you feel uncomfortable.

A week later, Zhang Yaohua's fleet appeared on the high seas.

This is the east coast of the Indian Ocean, northwest of Australia.

The average depth of the Indian Ocean is second only to the Pacific Ocean.

Its seafloor landforms are complex. In addition to the "in"-shaped mid-ocean ridge in the middle of the ocean floor, there are East Indian Ocean ridges, island arcs, and trench zones in the east. There are many ocean basins distributed between ridges, sea hills, and sea platforms.

As soon as Zhang Yaohua and others arrived, they saw the spectacle of a huge ocean whirlpool.

"Isn't there an eye of the sea below?" Someone looked at the whirlpool and felt terrified.

For those who often deal with the ocean, ocean whirlpools are not unheard of, but they have never been so big.

Zhang Yaohua said to them: "Don't scare yourself, there are no sea eyes. This kind of whirlpool is usually caused by ocean currents and is not as scary as you think."

Ocean vortices are a common phenomenon of fluid rotation in the ocean.

They usually appear in irregular circular or oval shapes, like a hydraulic "funnel". When flowing through a limited space, the flow rate decreases causing the seawater to concentrate into circular and oval vortex-type structures.

It is said that ocean vortices occur through many complex internal and external ocean forces.

For example, abnormal ocean currents at the bottom of the ocean, temperature and salt disturbances caused by convection between warm and cold ocean currents after land-based pollutants flow into the estuary area, may lead to the formation of ocean vortices.

The ocean whirlpool in front of us looks a bit big, but its power is not very powerful. It has no impact on the navigation of the fishing boat, so it can be easily overcome.

"Boss, few people come to the Indian Ocean to fish," the captain said to Zhang Yaohua.

The annual fishing volume of the Indian Ocean is about 500 million tons, which is much less than that of the Pacific and Atlantic Oceans.

Among them, the coast of the Indian Peninsula has the largest fishing volume. The main fish caught are: mackerel, sardines and flounder. There are also tuna, flying fish and turtles on the southern coast of Africa.

"As long as a few people come, if more people come, what will happen to us?"

Before Zhang Yaohua could speak, other crew members spoke first.

The captain chuckled twice.

"What do you know? The fish resources in the Indian Ocean are far inferior to those in the Pacific and Atlantic Oceans, and many distant-water fishing boats would rather go to the Southern Ocean."

At least the Southern Ocean is plentiful with krill.

Krill is the most abundant untapped biological resource in the world. Its reserves are generally estimated to be 1.5 to 10 billion tons, with the highest estimate being 50 billion tons. The annual catch can reach 1 to 1.5 million tons.

It is precisely for this reason that the Southern Ocean is known as the breadbasket of humankind's future.

The Indian Ocean does not seem to have any particularly famous seafood.

"Isn't this close to Australia? You can catch Australian dragons." The crew on the ship retorted to him.

The captain knew better than them.

"Australian dragons are rarely distributed here. They are mainly distributed between northern New South Wales, southern Tasmania, South Australia and Western Australia. Do you understand?"

Zhang Yaohua smiled and said nothing.

This time he came to this sea area just for the specialties such as Aolong.

Compared with other lobsters, Aolong has a fiery red body and golden claws. It looks particularly fat and strong. The meat is tender, crispy and elastic. It is regarded as a representative of top seafood all over the world.

Azhe's people shrugged: "We don't need to understand, what kind of seafood can't be caught by following Brother Hua?"

Uh!

This time it was the captain's turn to be speechless.

He has been working on Zhang Yaohua's ship for more than two or three months, but he really can't understand this boss. Sometimes it feels magical. Can people's luck really be that good?

"Cast a net ahead and test the water." Zhang Yaohua then spoke.

As soon as he spoke, everyone immediately took action and stopped bragging.

In fact, the traditional way of catching lobsters is similar to catching crabs. Bait is placed in a cage, and lobsters that are too small can escape through the opening of the cage. But Zhang Yaohua has golden fingers to help him, so he doesn't have to go to that trouble at all, he can just cast the net.

After the fishing boat dragged for a while, Zhang Yaohua asked him to close the net.

If it were other fishermen, they would definitely think this is crazy. It only took a while, what can be done? It's really just a fishing net soaked in water.

However, those on board did not hesitate to execute.

On the one hand, it’s because Zhang Yaohua is the boss. What’s wrong with listening to the boss? Even if they don't get anything, the only one who loses is the boss. Why do they worry?

On the other hand, it is because of everyone's trust in Zhang Yaohua.

The traditional fishing methods are useless in front of Brother Hua, and there is no need to abide by them.

"I'm coming."

The fishing net was quickly dragged out of the sea, and the captain's eyes widened.

"Damn it! There are so many big lobsters, they're crazy!" Azhe and others screamed.

When the fishing net is dragged onto the boat and the opening of the net is untied, a large number of lobsters are poured onto the deck of the fishing boat.

"Why are you standing there? Sort them quickly and follow the standards!" Zhang Yaohua said to them.

Generally speaking, all live lobsters will be re-graded on the ship. The grading is mainly divided into eight grades ABCDEFGH according to the size of the lobster.

A is the smallest and H is the largest.

Those weighing less than one kilogram belong to grade A, while those weighing more than 1800 grams belong to grade H.

The grades are different and the prices are also very different.

Take Zhang Yaohua's fishing boat as an example. This net can hold tens of thousands of kilograms of lobsters.

"How much does Aolong cost per pound now?" someone asked while sorting.

"About 280."

"It depends on what kind of product it is! There are some that cost around 200 yuan, and they are smaller. H products are more expensive, and there are also products that cost 400 to 550 kilograms." Someone familiar with the market told everyone.

"I've never eaten Oolong in my life."

Although they grew up by the sea and have never eaten giant lobsters, how can they have the chance to eat Australian dragons since they are imported?

"It should be similar to other large lobsters!"

Zhang Yaohua: "Don't you know if you have a late meal?"

He won't give it to everyone just because it's expensive.

Zhang Yaohua has eaten Aolong. It has a sweet and rich taste, low oiliness, juicy, medium firm meat, and translucent meat. It turns white with orange traces after cooking. The leg meat tastes slightly sweeter than the tail.

Ah Hui sent a message.

"Brother Hui said that he would like to save some Australian dragons for the banquet when he returns."

People who don’t know why also ask: “What kind of table will be set?”

Zhang Yaohua rolled his eyes: "What else can we do? When we get back, your brother Hui is going to get married."

He probably felt that the Aolong dish was a little over-the-top, so Ah Hui specifically told Zhang Yaohua in advance to reserve it when he returned.

Don’t think that Australian dragon is only used in high-end hotels in big cities. In some rural banquets, Australian dragon has quietly become one of the essential ingredients. There are even some rural banquets that must use more than 5 pounds of Australian dragon.

"Just stay, what's the big deal? Brother Hua..."

The young man next to him urged: "Stop talking nonsense and get to work quickly."
