Rushing to the sea: I can see the prompts

Chapter 28 Jade Bald Fish

This was Ah Hui's first fishing trip back home, so he was a little nervous about the waiting time.

As a person who grew up by the sea, I also know that not every time I go to sea, I will be rewarded. It depends on whether the sea will reward me or not.Although the vast sea is rich in products, sometimes it is just like finding a needle in a haystack.

There are too many ocean vacuum zones.

Just like no-man's land on land, there are also fishless areas in the ocean, which are very desolate.

"Get ready to set up the net." Shui Wang shouted to his elder brother.

He saw that Brother Hua had begun to close the net.

There is a winching machine on the boat to help collect the net, so you don’t need to exert a lot of effort to close the net. Just make sure that the winching machine is not crooked.

After a while, the fishing net emerged from the water, and everyone saw the harvest inside.

"Is it a horse-headed fish or a red-headed one?" Shui Wang said happily.

The first net got off to a good start, which was very helpful in boosting morale.

Ah Hui also smiled when he saw that the net weighed two to three hundred kilograms.

"Is horsehead fish expensive now?" He just came back a few days ago and has not fully grasped the market situation of seafood.

"It's not bad, the white horsehead fish is more than ten yuan, and the red horsehead fish is more than [-] yuan."

In other words, the value of this network is more than 5000 yuan. Is it no better than Ah Hui delivering food?He was glad that he listened to the advice this time and did not continue to be stubborn.

Zhang Yaohua's side is similar, they are all red horsehead fish.

The two struggled to get the fish onto the boat, fell on the board, took out the basket, and began to pack it away.Once the basket is loaded, it must be immediately taken to the cabin and covered with crushed ice.

"Brother, look, there is also a Tsing Yi." Zhang Yaowei said happily.

The blue-coated fish is found in shallow sea areas with many rocks or coral reefs between the tropics and subtropics. It swims with its pectoral fins in a very strange posture.The body color and shape are extremely variable, and the body color and shape are also different depending on the sex and age.

"Hmm! It looks like it weighs more than five pounds."

Zhang Yaowei shook his head: "More than that, it must be more than six kilograms. Unfortunately, it is not Su Meiyu."

Both fish have long and oval bodies, round and convex heads, and beautiful patterns.However, the bulge between the eyes of Su Meiyu is more obvious, while Qingyi does not have this obvious feature.

Zhang Yaohua rolled his eyes: "Dare you catch the Su Meiyu?"

Tsing Yi fish and Su Mei fish look a bit similar, but their prices are very different.A catty of sumi fish can be sold for more than 1000 yuan, while the green fish can only be sold for about [-] yuan per catty, a price difference of more than ten times.

Sumei fish is still a protected animal in China and cannot be fished at will.

At present, almost all Su Mei fish on the market are imported from abroad.

So what’s the point of this protection?We are protecting and others are fishing. Are we thinking that animals all over the world will come to China to seek refuge?
"Hehe! Don't dare."

Zhang Yaowei used to be brave, but since he saw people being caught, fined, and sentenced, he didn't dare anymore.

After cleaning up, they continued to launch the net.

Two more nets of horsehead were caught. Zhang Yaohua and his team estimated that the fish weighed more than 600 kilograms, while that of Shuiwang was slightly more, probably close to [-] kilograms.

At Zhang Yaohua's suggestion, they moved on and fished in another sea area.

Although we can continue to fish for horsehead fish here, there must be fish that have slipped through the net, but there is no reason to kill them all.

In addition, the main reason is that Zhang Yaohua thinks that the price of this kind of fish is average, so there is no need to bring back a boatload of horsehead fish and leave some space for other fish.

Shui Wang and Ah Hui naturally had no problem with it. They both hugged Thigh and obeyed Thigh's command in everything.

It was around one o'clock at noon, and Zhang Yaohua and the others ate the lunch they had prepared.Mom, Azhen and the others did not hesitate. They had vegetables, meat, and even soup.

At this time, Zhang Yaohua gave up the net again.

In fact, the net had already been cast once before, but nothing was gained. Shuiwang and the others even hauled up half the net of garbage.

Zhang Yaohua did it on purpose, otherwise it would be a big gain every time he was let off the net. What do people think?Is it really Mazu who takes special care of her?When the net was raised, Shui Wang and the others jumped up on the boat with excitement.

"Damn it! It's beef tongue fish, so good."

As the name suggests, this fish looks like a big tongue, also called jade bald fish.

The jade bald fish is a fish that lives on the bottom of the sea. It has very high requirements for water quality and likes to live in clear waters, so it has less fishy smell. The jade bald fish is like hairtail and will die as soon as it is caught and landed.

The current season is the time to eat jade fish.

As the saying goes: crucian carp is eaten in spring, bass is eaten in summer, jade fish is eaten in autumn, and shad is eaten in winter.

This fish is unattractive in appearance, but it has few spines and is delicious, so it is highly praised by diners.

"Damn it! There are a lot of them weighing more than one kilogram. They are about to get fat!" Shui Wang yelled.

Most of the jade bald fish seen in the market weigh about half a catty and cost around [-] yuan.You can buy two or three of the smaller ones for only ten yuan, which is cheap and good.

However, the bigger the jade fish, the more expensive it is. In restaurants, you often see jade fish weighing more than [-] kilogram, which costs about [-] yuan per kilogram.

For fish weighing more than one kilogram, the fishmongers charge 70 to [-] yuan.

If the fishing moratorium is approaching, it can even be sold for around [-] yuan.

Ah Fai is also very motivated.

They cast several more nets back and forth until they caught only a few jade bald fish.

The two brothers Zhang Yaohua caught more than 1000 kilograms of jade fish, one-third of which weighed more than a kilogram.

Shui Wang and Ah Hui caught more than 700 kilograms, and about one-third of the fish was more than one kilogram.

They looked at the time, it was almost three o'clock.

"How about we stop here today!" Ah Hui suggested.

He is very satisfied. Excluding gas expenses, his income today is well over [-] yuan.

Everyone looked at Zhang Yaohua.

Zhang Yaohua nodded: "Okay, go back first."

It was already evening when they returned to the fishing village.

This was the longest day that Zhang Yaohua went to sea, and he stayed at sea for almost twelve hours.For Zhang Yaowei and Shui Wang, this is the norm. In the past, the minimum time they spent with the shipowner was one day.

Tianqing is waiting for Misty Rain, and Daliang is waiting for them.

"What kind of fish did you catch today? I've been out for a day." Daliang came up to greet him.

"Today can't compare with the last two or three times. The one I can show off is the beef tongue fish."

"Oh! Is it big? Let me take a look."

Daliang walked to the boat and took a few glances, and was surprised to find that there were quite a few bulltongue fish weighing more than a pound.

"so much?"

You should know that this kind of fish lives on the seabed and is difficult to catch. It is not the main fishing species and is a bycatch.

But more than half of what Zhang Yaohua and the others caught were jade fish, which is a bit impressive.

After some routine haggling, the price of jade bald fish weighing more than one pound was 65 yuan, and the others were 20 yuan, including those red horsehead fish.

The Western star spotted fish from Shuiwang sold for 600 yuan, while Zhang Yaohua's green fish only cost 500 yuan.

Putting aside Dragon Palace Weng Rong Luo, just seafood, the two brothers Zhang Yaohua charged about 1 yuan more than Shui Wang and others.
