Fisherman: Making A Fortune Starts By Reporting Spies

No surprises!

On the net, it exceeded 40 tons. I don’t know whether it reached 50 tons specifically.

They don't know how to weigh themselves, and they are even less likely to weigh them.

We have to sort the fish as quickly as possible, so how can we have the thought to weigh how many pounds a net weighs?

Not to mention, there are small scales on fishing boats, but there are no large scales. If you use a small scale to weigh slowly, you may not be able to complete the scale until the evening and early morning.

There are only three kinds of fish, the main three being the dragon tongue fish, the blackhead fish, and the last big eye carp!

This way!

It's a lot easier. At least after they return to Hong Kong, they can mainly sell these three kinds of fish. As for the other fish caught in one net, let the small fishmongers pick them out by themselves, and then dispose of them at a similar price. .

After working for nearly an hour, I finally sorted the last catch of fish.

at this time!

The time has come to around eight o'clock in the evening.

"Uncle...how far is it from the reef beach?" Su Xiangdong asked directly after getting into the cockpit.

It’s about 3 nautical miles, but I feel like I can only run another 2 nautical miles!”

Uncle Su looked at the chart. The electronic equipment has many functions. There is no need to measure the distance like it was done decades ago. It can be measured with just a few operations: anchoring at a distance of 2 nautical miles, and then completely stopping the ship. , it should be about the same, there may be some discrepancies, but it can’t be any closer, this is the safest distance. "

"It's better to be safe!"

Su Xiangdong also agreed with this extremely cautious approach. Safety is the main premise: "That's it. The fishing boats can't get by anyway, so they have to use a small boat to get by."

"Yes, it must be a boat!"

Uncle Su nodded in agreement, pondered for a moment and then said: "Wait until the first batch of boats go over to collect the crab pots. I'll go with them. Everyone is very tired."

"Okay, the first batch will be Lao Liu and you!"

Su Xiangdong had no objection, but the last point could not be changed: "I will drive the boat, and you will be responsible for collecting the crab pots. The boat has no machinery and can only be pulled by manpower. It is not an ordinary heavy one. If there is no way to accommodate more people, , The crab pots pulled up also have weight, so only three people can set off in one boat and take turns."

“It’s necessary to take a break after a shift!”

Uncle Su agreed with his nephew's opinion, and there was still a little distance, so he didn't mind looking ahead: "No one has been to the reef beach here, and no one has come close to come to the bottom of the sea to get shrimps and crabs."

"Heh... for sure!"

How could Su Xiangdong put down a crab pot for no reason? There was less crab on the bottom, so he didn’t even bother to put it down. It was precisely because he knew there were a lot of crabs on the bottom that he put down a crab pot close to the rocks: “But I can’t count on the shrimps. The mouth of the pot is not big enough.” If it's too big, the shrimp can escape, but if it can't escape, it will probably become the crab's meal."

"Crab pots and crab pots...the main thing is to catch crabs."

"That's true!"

Conversation between uncle and nephew.

The fishing boat sailed another 2 nautical miles.

At the command, the anchor was dropped again, and the small water pump naturally came in handy. The anchor was dropped very quickly, and the friction between the iron lock and the pulley would cause a direct fire. At least if you didn't cool it down, it would definitely burn, so , to lower this kind of anchor, water must be pumped to cool it down.

Billowing white smoke!

It also floats upward. If it hits the place where people are standing, they will probably choke to death.

After anchoring and towing for almost 1 kilometer, the fishing boat finally stopped!

It is about 0.85 kilometers away from the reef beach, less than 1 kilometer away.

Without Su Xiangdong's instructions, everyone knew that they were collecting crab pots, so when the two came down from the cockpit, the boat and the necessary hook tools were ready, including two large fish buckets. All were moved to the boat.

"Everyone else rest!"

Su Xiangdong immediately called the names: "Old Liu, Third Uncle... I will drive the boat for the first batch. While the others are resting, they are also waiting for help on the boat. Then it will be a rotation, and manpower will be collected to collect the crab pots. It is an individual job. , we have placed 500 crab pots, and I don’t know how many times it will take to collect them all. It will take only a few hours to collect them all.”

"clear!"

"Get aboard!"

Su Xiangdong waved his hand, and he jumped onto the boat first. After steadying himself, he motioned for others to get on the boat.

The sea breeze at night is always stronger than during the day. Although it is not absolute, it is definitely stronger under normal circumstances, because when night falls, it will be the high tide period and the waves will naturally become bigger.

The boat rocked even more!

But there is no problem at all. What we should be more worried about is running aground.

It's just up to him to sail the boat. As long as he doesn't seek death, it's absolutely impossible to hit the rocks. This is why he took the initiative to ask to sail the boat. Who can let him see the situation in the sea clearly? The radius is still 60 meters, and a reef is found 60 meters away. The boat immediately slowed down, and it would definitely not hit it, so there was no talk of hitting the rocks.

A big foam buoy floating on the sea!

As the boat approached, there was no need to cling to it. The long iron hook hooked the floating cable and the two of them exerted their strength to pull it up.

"Very heavy..."

Mate Liu just felt it, and a smile appeared on his old face: "The quantity will not be small.

"[A good start is a good thing!"

Uncle Su also weighed it and couldn't make a precise judgment, but he had a clue: "I'll shout, one, two, three... pull!"

When two adults exert force at the same time, it will be very heavy at first. But as long as you pull it up a little and the crab pot no longer sinks to the bottom, it will become a little buoyant and a little easier. But at this time, you must make sure to use force and relax. , it will sink back immediately.

To put it bluntly, when pulling a crab pot, once you start exerting force, you cannot stop. You must use all your strength to pull it up in one breath. Otherwise, it will definitely be choked and you may be pulled back into the sea. Woolen cloth.

This is why working without machinery is very troublesome and very tiring.

Su Xiangdong, who was in charge of driving the boat, was motionless!

It's not that he didn't want to go over to help, but that he couldn't go over. He had to ensure the balance of the boat. When he started to pull the crab pot, the boat was already tilting to one side without getting on. He stood on the other side and pressed down on the diagonal to ensure that the boat Will not turn over.

Furthermore, the space in the boat is not large, and there is no room for one person to pull the crab pot together. (Zhao Ji’s factory

Take a few minutes!

The first crab pot was pulled up.

"The cage exploded!"

“It’s huge!”

"Come on, let's hold on to each other, and let's work together!"

"#,,!"

Good harvest!

The big crab bared its teeth and claws, trying to escape, but it was already impossible. It would still want to run after entering the cage, unless you are not that big.

6 taels go up, 8 taels are the best!

There will be no suspense. When the mouth of the crab pot is deliberately opened wide, only big crabs will be caught, and only big crabs can only enter but not get out.

In the event of an explosion, one cage would definitely weigh more than 350 kilograms. This is the conclusion they came to from the last time they let go of the crab pots.

But anyone with some knowledge actually knows that your crab pot is big enough, but if you don't place it in a place with a lot of crabs, it may be impossible to explode the pot. If you only catch half a pot, thank God. I’m still thinking about breaking out of the cage, which is a beautiful thought!
