My Deep-sea Fishery

"Okay, put an Internet cafe, I hope there will be a good start after the snowstorm." Xiang Yang said.

"Okay, I'll make arrangements now." After Chen Qingsheng finished speaking, he walked towards the back of the deck.

It was windy and snowy yesterday, and the ship's winch was frozen with ice.

Chen Qingsheng and Zhou Wang drove the motor of the winch and fiddled with the stern for a long time before they finally got the winch moving.

Fortunately, although the winch was frozen by ice, it was not damaged by the frost. After it was successfully activated, the huge fishing net was quickly successfully sent to the bottom of the sea.

After the fishing net is automatically dispersed under the action of the tide, all you need to do is wait for the fish to enter the net.

Time passed slowly, and Xiang Yang glanced below the water surface from time to time. An hour later, more and more sea fish appeared on the sea surface.

Xiang Yang looked through the water and saw the huge swarm of Antarctic krill, which looked like a hornet's nest that had been poked by someone.

"The fishery resources in this piece of sea fish are quite good." Chen Qingsheng said with a smile.

"This is Antarctica, a sea area that has not been exploited by humans at all." Xiang Yang said.

Chen Qingsheng looked forward to it in his heart, "Captain, according to this form, after a while, we should have made up all the losses we lost yesterday, and maybe we can make some more money."

Xiang Yang nodded. His luck has always been good. Even if he encountered a blizzard yesterday, he didn't lose much. This net will definitely make up for yesterday's loss.

Soon, people on other fishing boats in the fleet also discovered the huge school of fish on the bottom of the sea, and began to cast their nets one after another.

Xiang Yang smiled, and directly ordered: "Catch the net, we will quickly clean up this batch of catches, and cast another net later."

"Yes, Captain." Xu Fang hastily switched on the winch.

Soon, there was a heavy sound from the winch. Although the broken ice on the winch had been cleaned once, there were still some remnants. Under the violent vibration of the motor, some broken ice flew everywhere, even A few pieces of ice the size of walnuts fell directly on Xiang Yang.

Xiang Yang reached out to knock off the broken ice on his body, and then looked up at the fishing net that was slowly being drawn onto the boat.

Seeing this, Xiang Yang was a little disappointed.

The fishing net is not full of catches as Xiang Yang thought.

"How come there are so few?" Chen Qingsheng also frowned. During the voyage just now, he clearly saw a lot of sea areas, but now the fishing net is pulled up, but it is a long one, and there is a small bag at the bottom. The small catches may only weigh two to three thousand catties in total.

"Put down the net bag first, let's see what catches are inside." Xiang Yang said in a deep voice.

Chen Qingsheng nodded. Although he was a little disappointed, he quickly led someone to drag the fishing net up to the deck, and then unfastened the mouth of the net.

After the fishing net was untied, the disappointment on Chen Qingsheng's face became even stronger. The net was full of palm-sized worthless sea fish, not even a single icefish or sturgeon that he wanted to catch.

But Xiang Yang patted Chen Qingsheng on the shoulder and said with a smile, "It's not bad. There are eagle pomfrets, but they don't weigh much. They're all weighing a pound or two, so they're not too valuable."

Chen Qingsheng nodded, "Let me clean up the catch first."

"Huh? What is this? Thorn ball?" Suddenly, Chen Qingsheng twisted an eagle pomfret. In the abdomen of this eagle pomfret, there was a strange sea of ​​thorns all over the body, flat and round, only the size of a coin. biology.

"This should be biscuit sea urchin." Xiang Yang was uncertain.

In the world's major oceans, there are more than a thousand types of sea urchins, such as the most common stinger sea urchin in my country, the most famous stylus sea urchin, the unique purple sea urchin in northern my country, and the high-quality and cheap horse urchin. Dung sea urchin, etc.

These sea urchins all have a common feature, that is, their standard structure resembles a spiny hemisphere.

But the biscuit sea urchin is different. The body of the biscuit sea urchin is flat, just like a biscuit, and it does not have a symmetrical body like other echinoderms.

"Impossible? Doesn't biscuit sea urchin live in the tropics?" Chen Qingsheng frowned.

On the beaches of the southeast coast of my country, people often find empty shells of biscuit sea urchins the size of coins, so many people think that biscuit sea urchins are warm-water creatures.

Actually not.

Biscuit sea urchin has no mandatory requirements on the temperature of the water, and it can live in any shallow water area in the world, including the Antarctic, the Arctic, and the equator.

Xiang Yang pinched the biscuit sea urchin from the belly of the eagle pomfret with two fingers.

"This sea urchin is so ugly, it's like a hairy belly." Fang Youqun said with a look of disgust.

Xiang Yang glanced at Fang Youqun, and then looked at the biscuit sea urchin in his hand. Not to mention, this thing is brownish-gray in color and covered with fine fluff on its body. It really looks very similar to a hairy belly cut into small pieces. resemblance.

"Calling it ugly is something you don't know how to appreciate. Biscuit sea urchin is recognized all over the world as the most exquisite work of art in the animal kingdom." Xiang Yang said.

When Fang Youqun heard it, he felt as if someone had stepped on his tail, and almost jumped up from the spot, "What? What is it? Brother Yang, do you think this thing is an exquisite work of art?"

"I didn't say it, everyone recognized it." Xiang Yang said speechlessly.

When biscuit sea urchins are swimming on the seabed, they will drag a small house made of limestone tiles all the time.

The workmanship of this small house is very fine, it is hidden under the brown-gray fluff of biscuit sea urchin, but if you don't look carefully, you can't see it.

Xiang Yang handed the biscuit sea urchin to Fang Youqun.

Fang Youqun widened his eyes and studied it carefully. After several seconds of careful observation, he said in amazement: "Hey, there is really a strange shell."

"Of course there is, this is the landmark building of biscuit sea urchin." Xiang Yang said.

Biscuit sea urchins secrete a bodily fluid that petrifies into a calcareous material.

Every biscuit sea urchin will start to secrete this body fluid from a young age, when it is only the size of a pea, and build its own small house.

When the biscuit sea urchin is an adult, that is when the biscuit sea urchin's house is built.

"Its house is a bit like a biscuit." Fang Youqun said.

Xiang Yang nodded, "It was built according to the shape of the biscuit. This biscuit is not the shell of the biscuit sea urchin, but its house. The whole biscuit house is built together with more than 600 ultra-tiny bricks. The biscuit sea urchin only needs to Hiding inside the house, basically no marine life can attack them."

The surface of the biscuit sea urchin's body is covered with spines. These spines are very small and look like fluff. These fluffs can help the biscuit sea urchin dig up the sea sand, so that the biscuit sea urchin even hides itself and its house under the sea sand.

With a lime shell, thorns all over its body, and superb hiding methods, in the entire ocean, except for cod, no creature can kill the biscuit sea urchin.
