Golden Fishery

One hundred and forty fifty harp seals, Qin Shiou thought it would be good to bring them to the fishing ground. These little guys are so cute, chubby and round, and not aggressive to humans, so they would be good to keep in the fishing ground as ornamental pets It can add a lot of popularity to the fishing ground.

Winnie is even more welcome. With the seal town tour, there is one more project.

So after Qin Shiou made this proposal, Winnie responded and took his hand and smiled sweetly: "My dear, it's very kind of you, take it back, I can apply for some seal adoption funds from the town to the fishing ground."

The colonel shrugged and said that he was not in charge of this, and it would be up to the mounted police to deal with it later. If they decided to release the seals on the spot, he would help find someone to clear up the relationship and let Qin Shiou take them away.

The group of people then returned to the hotel under the escort of the police. The wind and snow were howling outside, but the reporters surrounded them despite the wind and snow. This professionalism made Qin Shiou amazed.

After waking up overnight, more reporters came to Cape Inner. Qin Shiou was blocked when he went out to buy coffee. A group of people raised the topic and asked him: "Are you the captain of the Melon Princess? You must be right? This The captain of the ship is Chinese."

Qin Shiou pulled Geng Junjie who was with him over, and said, "No, no, everyone, you got it wrong. He is the captain, and I am the crew. I'm going to buy coffee for the captain and first mates."

Most of these reporters didn't come from St. John's, so they didn't know Qin Shiou. When he introduced him, they let him go and surrounded Geng Junjie.

Indeed, from the perspective of age and temperament, Geng Junjie is more like a captain. He has just retired not long ago, and he has the strong and unyielding spirit of a soldier, which can also be regarded as a leadership temperament. Qin Shiou's temperament is also very good, but unfortunately he is too young.

So Geng Junjie was blocked, and a group of reporters babbled and asked questions. Poorly, his English was so poor that he couldn't hear clearly at all, and was dizzy from the noise. In the end, I tried to choke out a sentence: "We are deeply shocked by this and strongly condemn..."

reporter:"……"

Qin Shiou braved the wind and snow and entered the coffee shop next to the hotel. There was a newspaper put down on the table, and the headline was clearly about this murder.

The media from all walks of life are really powerful, and they found out the ins and outs of the matter in one night. Qin Shiou read the newspaper while drinking the fragrant coffee, and only then did he have a complete understanding of the whole incident.

The Maine Bulldog is an American fishing vessel. They have been at sea for four months. The original crew on board was forty people. There are two fishermen at the last minute - a pair of lucky brothers who were unable to make it to the boat due to illness in the family.

The thirty-eight people consist of twelve people led by the captain and twenty-six people led by the chief mate.

Among them, the chief mate and others were hired temporarily, and they were not natives of Portland, because the captain of the Maine Bulldog was notorious locally. He was known to squeeze the crew's income, and the local fishermen were unwilling to work for him.

The Maine Coon Bulldog went to sea in late September, with the goal of the North Atlantic Ocean, and wanted to catch the squid and squid that went south in winter. It was originally in accordance with the agreement. In addition to the salary, the captain offered the first mate and his men a 20% bonus of the final income.

This is normal. All ocean-going fishing vessels employ fishermen in the same way. It can not only guarantee basic income, but also give employees the possibility to earn a fortune, which can stimulate their enthusiasm for work.

Turns out the problem was in the later catches, they were very unlucky and caught very little catch. In this way, the captain does not want to pay the crew, but only promises to give them the final dividend.

Of course the chief mate and his party disagreed, and the two sides had differences. Sowed the root of the murder.

Fishing was fruitless, and the captain did not want to lose money, so he caught a batch of harp seals and wanted to dispose of the fur and seal meat through the black market. This can at least subsidize the money spent by fishing boats going to sea.

The first mate and others thought that part of the money from the sale of harp seals should be given to them. The captain was an iron cock, so he disagreed anyway. In this way, the two sides developed from a discord to a big fight, and the first officer simply did nothing but imprisoned the captain and his party, trying to threaten him.

The captain is a ruthless man. He instigated a crew member who was arranged by the first officer to deliver meals, and when he came out, he took a pistol and wanted to fight back—not really wanting to kill people, but just wanting to deter the first officer and others and arrest them.

But the first mate and his party thought they wanted to kill people, so they preemptively killed the captain with a harpoon, and the captain's men fought back. In the end, 11 of the 12 people were killed and thrown into the sea to feed the sharks!

The one who survived was the Mexican who played the semaphore. He was the cook on board, and he was extremely cowardly.

During the conflict, 26 chief mates also suffered casualties. In the end, only 18 people survived. These 18 people were also divided into two factions, nine people led by the chief mate, and seven people led by the chief engineer.

After the murder, the two sides had disagreements. The nine chief mates believed that they had committed a felony and could not return to the United States, so they went straight to northern Greenland to find a place to hide.

The chief engineer didn't think so. He felt that they had committed a crime and should go back and plead guilty. The reason for this idea was that the eight chief engineers only provided assistance during the conflict and did not kill anyone.

This is the fundamental difference between the two parties, one is a serious criminal, the other is at best an accomplice. The two sides did not trust each other, and after four days of discussion with no results, the first officer destroyed the satellite phone to prevent the chief engineer from telling the truth, and the chief engineer destroyed the engine so that they could not go north.

In the end, both parties understood that the other party could not be allowed to survive, otherwise they would not be able to survive, so another bloodshed occurred. The first officer and his party survived to the end because they kept the pistols, and the eight chief engineers were all killed!

Then came the experience of Qin Shiou. They wanted to capture the Melon Princess and go to Greenland. Unexpectedly, there were not only fishermen on Qin Shiou's boat, but also ten soldiers, and they were also carrying long guns.

After reading the report, Qin Shiou couldn't help shaking his head. What happened on the Maine Coon Bulldog was even more exciting and horrifying than Hollywood blockbusters. As the old saying goes: reality is finally more exciting than movies!

Nearly forty families were destroyed in this way, and if he hadn't been vigilant, there would have been even more families destroyed!

This incident is not just a bloody incident, but also involves diplomacy. The ship belongs to the United States, and the incident happened on Canadian soil. It is hard to say how to enforce the law and how to punish it.

The U.S. police also reacted very quickly—there was no room for them to react quickly when such a big incident happened. After Qin Shiou bought coffee and went back, he saw a group of strange policemen appearing in the hotel. It's the Americans who have arrived. (To be continued.)
