space fisherman

After sailing for more than an hour, this situation finally disappeared, and the number of underwater creatures slowly increased.

Yu Hongbo came over at this time

"We haven't lowered the net all day. Brothers want to drag the net."

Ye Yuan felt that these crew members were more concerned about the fish catch than his boss. Even though he was not doing well, the crew members couldn't sit still.

"Okay, let's drag it to the Internet."

Ye Yuan didn't mean to stop everyone. Although there weren't many fish here, it wasn't like there were none at all. Ye Yuan lazily used his senses to explore.

Just go out to sea and explore a few times by yourself once in a while.

If there was a bumper harvest every time, then it wouldn't be a serious problem, but it would become something weird.

After more than an hour of towing, Yu Hongbo ordered the net to be set up.

Now Ye Yuan wouldn't be able to direct it himself unless he met the treasured seafood, and would leave it to Yu Hongbo.

As the fish caught left the water, Ye Yuan discovered that the fish caught in this net were not as small as expected, but they were not very large either, only three to four hundred kilograms. In Ye Yuan's view, this was already very unsatisfactory.

As the fish arrived on the deck, the crew gathered around to watch the fish being sorted.

Ye Yuan did not go up to take a look, but just took a glance and found that the fish caught here were very mixed. The mixed fish caught meant that there were no large fish schools here.

Usually there are various kinds of fish mixed in the fish school, but one kind of fish is still the main one. If you think about all kinds of fish now, it only means that there are no schools of fish here but scattered fish.

Classes were salvaged.

Just when Ye Yuan was about to turn around and feed the "squad leader".

"Squad Leader" is the name given to this harbor seal by the crew.

Ye Yuan was a little speechless at first, but as everyone started calling it that, the harbor seal seemed to recognize the name, and Ye Yuan just called it that.

"Boss, come and see, what kind of shrimp is this?"

A crew member shouted to Ye Yuan.

"Huh!"

Ye Yuan looked at the shrimp held by the crew member. It was about 20cm long and red in color. There were scattered white spots on the side of the head and breastplate.

Ye Yuan quickly came to the crew member, took the shrimp from his hand, and observed it carefully.

"Peony shrimp"

This is a cold-water shrimp that has gradually been recognized in the aquatic product market in recent years.

Peony shrimps are very popular in the market because of their bright red color and sweet shrimp meat, which are very suitable for eating raw as sashimi.

However, biologically speaking, the shrimps on the market known as "peony shrimps" include 2-3 different species.

Due to the distribution areas of different species and the different catch amounts, the prices vary.

Although there are no essential differences between different species of "peony shrimp" in terms of taste and nutrition, from a commercial perspective, if a lower-priced "peony shrimp" is used as a higher-priced "peony shrimp",

Also happens often.

It's like using rainbow trout to pass off as Atlantic salmon.

Currently, there are two types of common peony shrimps on the market, namely, high-backed and long-fronted shrimps and wide-angle and long-fronted shrimps.

However, the former is produced from the northern waters of Japan to the Bering Sea, and the output is smaller, so the price is more expensive.

The latter is mainly produced on the Pacific coast of North America, with larger output and relatively cheaper prices.

The high-backed and long-fronted shrimp, also called Fukuyama shrimp in some places, has two most typical characteristics: first, as the name suggests, the back of the cephalothorax and the base of the frontal sword of this species are highly bulging, showing an obvious upward curve. "

This is where the name "high back" comes from.

Secondly, there are scattered white spots on the sides of the head and breastplate.

On the contrary, the cephalothorax and the base of the frontal sword of the broad-horned long-fronted shrimp are not very raised or protruding.

In addition, there are 2-3 white stripes on both sides of the head and breastplate of the broad-horned long-fronted shrimp.

The abdomen of the high-backed long-fronted shrimp is a relatively dull band, and there are no white spots on the dorsal side of the abdomen, while the wide-angled long-fronted shrimp has a pair of obvious white spots on the backs of the first and fifth segments of the abdomen.

Ma Hua saw that Ye Yuan had been staring at the shrimp in his hand and said without saying anything for a long time:

"Boss, are these shrimps expensive?"

Ye Yuan nodded: "This must be a good thing. This kind of shrimp is called peony shrimp, which is known as the king of sea shrimp. It is a kind of naturally red shrimp. It is not easy to catch. Only a thousand of them are caught in the entire Blue Star in a year.

How many tons, do you think it’s expensive?”

The crew members all stuck out their tongues after hearing Ye Yuan's explanation, and then lowered their heads to look for this kind of shrimp among the fish.

"Our trawl nets have large meshes, so small fish can escape directly. How did this peony shrimp get in?"

Ye Yuan didn't know whether to ask the crew or himself, he was talking to himself.

"The devil knows how he got in, as long as it's valuable."

I don't know which crew member replied casually.

Ye Yuan ignored this and immediately released his perception.

Not to mention, he actually discovered a group of peony shrimps, which could weigh several hundred kilograms.

Ye Yuan immediately shouted: "There should be this kind of shrimp down here. Quickly change the trawl net with a small mesh and drag another net here."

Only then did the crew react and take action quickly. Two crew members were left to deal with the remaining miscellaneous fish on the deck, and the others began to take action quickly.

The fishing nets were quickly replaced, and as the fishing boat moved forward, the trawl nets gradually fell into the sea.

Soon Ye Yuan felt that the group of peony shrimps had entered the net. He did not pick up the net, but continued to drag the fishing net. After dragging it for more than an hour, he asked the crew to drag the trawl back to the ship.

.

As expected, a small package of peony shrimps appeared on the deck, and the crew swarmed over and started picking out the still alive peony shrimps with buckets.

Ye Yuan also picked along with him. His purpose was to get a batch for himself, just like snow crabs.

Without anyone noticing him, he released a small batch of peony shrimps into the space and stopped continuing the work at hand.

The fishing boat continued to move forward, and Ye Yuan activated his senses and continued to search for seafood in the sea, hoping to encounter some rare seafood again.

Ye Yuan actually likes to use his senses to observe the underwater world. There are many interesting things here and they are also very beautiful.

Just like now, Ye Yuan saw several plate-sized sea crabs using their huge pair of pincers to pry open the shell of a shellfish and eat the delicious shell meat under the shell.

Who could have imagined that sea crabs, which humans regard as delicacies on the dinner table, can be so ferocious on the bottom of the sea.

However, Ye Yuan has no intention of getting these big crabs on the ship because the number is too small, and there are snow crabs in his own space. I believe that it won't take long for the snow crabs in his space to grow in large numbers.

Speaking of space, now that there are robots working in Ye Yuan's space, many fish have begun to breed, and many of the marine life that Ye Yuan put in before have grown.

The products that Ye Yuan cares about most are all doing well. The valuable single-headed abalone and the dog claw snails caught on Nanlin Island have begun to multiply in space.

Not to mention the large number, the first ones put in have already grown.
