My Deep-sea Fishery

Chapter 20: flounder

   Xiangyang still didn't row a boat when he reached the beach, and he plunged directly into the sea.

Although Xiang Fu has a small fishing boat, the small fishing boat that is rowed by humans seems to Xiang Yang to be a waste of his time. Anyway, at this time, only Xiang Yang has diving equipment in Qinglong Bend, and the villagers don’t know. What kind of situation is the bottom of the sea? When you reach the bottom of Xiangyang, you are not afraid that someone will find your own abnormality.

  Xiang Yang passed through a "jungle" on the seabed, reaching a sea area with very clean water.

   This sea area seems very barren. There are no huge algae that are exaggerated, and there are no weird-shaped coral reefs. The fine white sand covers the entire bottom of the sea, and even sea grass is very scarce.

   Xiang Yang likes this environment very much, and walks barefoot on this silver seabed with flippers that pulled off his feet.

  The sparse seaweeds have caused the seafood in this area to be very barren. Xiang Yang can almost only see finger-sized marine fish coexisting leisurely with the scallops that can be seen everywhere on the seabed, and the number is very rare.

"Barrenness also has the benefits of being barren. The seas that are always thrilling and eating by the weak are very prosperous, but they don't belong to them." Xiang Yang casually grabbed a small red fish that was thick with chopsticks but was so courageous that he even dared to swim in front of him. Exclaimed.

   Although the mouth of this small red fish is full of fangs, but because of its small size, it hardly possesses any attack power. Xiang Yang estimates that they are also a kind of marine life that feeds on scallops.

Xiang Yang was not interested in this red fish. After observing for a while, he released the red fish in the palm of his hand. As soon as the little guy broke free from Xiang Yang's claws, he immediately frightened and swam to the distance and disappeared for a while. .

Xiang Yang smiled and didn't care about it. Except for the few predators standing at the top of the food chain, most of the remaining creatures in the ocean struggle to survive. Every kind of marine creature that has been able to multiply to this day for millions of years They are all worthy of respect. It is a miracle that this kind of little attacking fish can form a unique small ecosystem in such a barren sea by relying on the scallops that can be found everywhere on the seabed.

   Xiang Yang continued to walk forward.

   "Huh?" Xiang Yanggang seemed to be dazzled. He saw a piece of sea sand moving in front of him, and he stopped and observed carefully.

   After taking a closer look, Xiang Yang laughed. It turned out to be a flounder.

   Flounder is a cheap sea fish, which can be seen everywhere, and the market price is generally about 20 yuan per catty.

But this does not hinder people's love of flounder, because its meat is very delicious and the protein content is very rich. The most important thing is to eat flounder without worrying about being stuck by the fishbone. It is a kind of sea fish that is very suitable for children to eat. People even It gave it a very nice common name-Duobaoyu.

   In fact, the flounder is also a very interesting sea fish. It can change the color of its body surface according to the surrounding environment like a chameleon, disguising itself as sand and rocks on the seabed.

   Once the flounder changes its body color, it is difficult to detect with the naked eye using sand as an aid to integrate itself into the environment and into a state of camouflage.

   Xiang Yang was able to find this flounder not only because Xiang Yang had very good eyesight on the bottom of the sea, but also because the flounder that Xiang Yang found was preying at the moment.

   I saw it lying leisurely on the beach with sand covering its whole body, leaving only a pair of eyes outside, a small red sea fish swimming to its side before it suddenly opened its mouth.

   It may be that the movement was so loud that the little red sea fish was shocked, and the little fish fled in panic as soon as the flounder opened its mouth.

   The flounder that failed to prey was not discouraged, and continued to swim happily on the bottom of the sea, shaking his body and burying himself with sea sand, waiting for the prey to be brought to his mouth next time.

Xiang Yang smiled and walked up and "dug" this flounder from the beach and put it into his net bag. It is one thing whether it is worth the money, but it is another thing whether it tastes good or not. Tonight, a garlic clove is cooked with garlic. Xiang Yang has been confirmed in advance.

   Xiang Yang liked the calm environment of this sea area, and when he found a turbot, Xiang Yang didn't rush to leave this barren sea area and searched the seabed carefully.

The flounder does not have a swim bladder in its body, and it swims very slowly, and it does not have sharp teeth to resist foreign enemies. Hiding its shadow is not only a means of predation for the flounder, but also a means of resisting the flounder. After all, the flounder hidden by the shadow is difficult to be spotted by predators. Powerful predators don't pay much attention to whether a piece of "sand" is delicious even after passing by.

   But compared to the average marine predator, a flounder group often only has to be discovered by an intelligent "predator" like the fisherman, which would be a disaster for the entire flounder group.

   For fishermen, there is no better fish than a flounder lying motionless on the bottom of the sea. If you look carefully, you will catch it to death.

   Of course, the flounder also does not refer to a single sea fish, but a huge flounder family. Not every flounder in the entire huge flounder family is as wasteful as the flounder Xiang Yang is currently catching.

   For example, the flounder, that kind of flounder with iron teeth and steel teeth that can swim long distances on the seabed, let alone Xiang Yang, even sharks are afraid of three points. Of course, the fear goes to the fear, and the shark is infallible.

   This barren sea area may be due to the absence of natural enemies~www.wuxiahere.com~ Xiang Yang was pleasantly surprised to find that there are so many flounders. Basically, every few meters you can find a flounder that buried itself under the sand.

   Even if Xiang Yang only picked a one-kilogram or more grab, he grabbed a dozen of them in a few minutes, filling the entire net pocket.

Rao is a flatfish that is not valuable. Wholesale sales can only sell for ten yuan a catty. This kind of money comes quickly. Xiang Yang is in a good mood and immediately decides to swim back to the shore to drag the old fishing boat. The ship's flounder went back.

Back to Qinglongwan, everyone saw that Xiang Yang caught a full net bag of flounder after wearing a diving suit. They were envious of them all. In the bottom of my heart, the idea of ​​buying a diving suit was even stronger. less.

"Brother Yang, luck is good. Although this flounder is not very valuable to sell individually, it is a large group if you lie on the bottom of the sea without moving." A young man about the age of Xiang Yang stared at Xiang Yang's eyes in a net bag around his waist. It's almost straight.

Although the flatfish only charges eight or nine yuan per catty in the town, the net bag on Xiang Yang’s waist is less than twenty catties. It’s no wonder that this young man envied nearly two hundred yuan in less than half an hour into the sea. .

Xiang Yang smiled, "If you catch flounder in the future, you can sell it to me. I will buy it for nine yuan a catty. Although the price is about the same as the purchase price in the town, these cheap marine fish really don't make much money. It's convenient."

The aquatic products purchasers in every place are the more precious the seafood, the deeper the water. The less valuable marine products like flounder, on the contrary, are more reasonable. This kind of external retail can only sell for more than ten or twenty yuan. Zhang Qicheng’s purchase price for a catty of halibut to Xiang Yang was ten yuan a catty, and Xiang Yang’s price of nine yuan was really not profitable.
