In fact, most whaling ships that go to sea are prone to shipwrecks.

Facing the vast and endless sea, there are too many places that humans have not explored. No one can predict what kind of disasters and dangers there will be. Only with rich navigation experience and knowledge can we return home smoothly and safely.

The Caitlin whaling ship is definitely a precedent. They are the only group of people who can eat fresh whale meat. All this depends on the investors' amazing financial and material resources to bring so many people together.

And what's different from usual is that this time they retained the whale's cortex and fins, and even selected a better part of the whale's bones.

As time passed, all the whales in coastal areas were captured, and crafts and daily necessities made of whale skin gradually disappeared from people's sight. The leather of whales is soft and has velvet on the surface. Many nobles like this kind of leather with patterned whale skin.

Due to various unavoidable reasons such as transportation, most of the whales caught in the end will be wasted, and it is impossible for whaling ships far from the land to return just to drag a whale back to the shore.

It is not difficult to imagine that the value of a whaling ship like Caitlin is many times higher than other whaling ships. The technology and investors' philosophy of not wasting as much as possible are enough to far surpass other shipbuilding companies.

Most people are unwilling to invest huge sums of money in shipbuilding. Even if they know that better equipment and ships can bring greater profits, no one is willing to take the risk.

It is precisely because of this that the prices of the originally common whale skins, as well as whale bones and meat have also risen sharply. Once a whaling ship returns, both the chamber of commerce and the nobles will rush to wait on the shore to purchase large quantities.

In particular, some rare items are particularly popular. Most of these materials that were once popular in coastal areas will be taken away by nobles and merchants at high prices, and then have their own caregivers and tailors make exquisite clothes, leather bags, and even boots. Wait...

As for the whale bones, they are also of great value, and the conditions on the Caitlin allow it, so this time everyone will cut off some of the bones.

But compared to the previous refining process, it is still very difficult not to waste a whole whale.

For example, the smell of blood will attract sharks and other carnivorous fish. It is very dangerous to cut up the whale carcass and take away these highly valuable parts under their harassment. At the same time, attention should be paid to the weight and buoyancy of the whale carcass to avoid incorrect segmentation methods that may lead to the hard-earned wealth being wasted and sinking to the bottom of the sea.

Depending on the situation, the lower jaw of the whale must be cut off, because many whales have baleen in their mouths, which is a good thing and a hot commodity.

Of course, these things are decided before going to sea. The chamber of commerce needs to pay a large deposit to support the whaling ship going to sea and make investment to show its sincerity in cooperation.

Therefore, whichever chamber of commerce pays more will have priority in selecting parts of the whale. For example, the voyage of the Caitlin whaling ship is entirely under the control of the investor, and there is no connection with the Chamber of Commerce. Therefore, all things brought back, or additional designated parts needed, are decided by the investor.

The investors of the Caitlin this time are a very traditional family, or in some respects, they are still very conservative.
