My Deep-sea Fishery

As soon as Gang Wu heard this, he immediately grinned, "Since I bought the fishing boat, I can also go fishing in the far sea away from the shore of Qinglong Bend. Sometimes we go out for four or five days. The catch obtained in the past one or two months cannot be compared, but the fuel cost of the fishing boat is too expensive, and it is a gas tiger."

Xiang Yang smiled, "In fact, the small fishing boat you bought like Uncle Gang Wu is already very fuel-efficient. By the way, I heard that you also hired two crew members?"

"That's right, my boy is also helping on the boat now. There are three of us in our family, plus two crew members, the manpower is enough." Gang Wu said.

Xiang Yang nodded. A fishing boat with a length of 13 meters can have five crew members. This configuration is enough. If it is a freighter, maybe two people will do.

"Are you going to sea, or just came back from sea?" Xiang Yang asked Gang Wudao.

"I just came back from the sea, and I caught a boat of horsehead fish, weighing more than two thousand catties. Of course, there were some other catches, but not many." Gang Wu said with a smile on his face.

Xiang Yang did the math, there are more than 2,000 catties of wharf fish, and now the purchase price of wharf fish has dropped a little, it is about 30 yuan a catty, so if calculated in this way, it is at least 60,000 to 70,000 yuan.

"Congratulations, Fifth Uncle Gang, this is a bumper harvest." Xiang Yang congratulated.

Although Gang Wu was happy in his heart, he still said hastily: "I'm just making a living, and I can't compare with you, Yang Zi. You are the one who does big business."

Xiang Yang smiled slightly, and resolutely stopped this topic. Xiang Yang is not a person who likes to show off, and it is even more boring to show off Xiang Yang in front of the folks in his hometown.

It seems that in a short period of time, fishing is still the main source of income for most people in the village, Xiang Yang thought to himself.

Although, Xiang Yang has determined the direction of Qinglong Bend to be a tourist development zone.

However, the tourism development zone obviously cannot be accomplished overnight. Qinglong Bend requires a long period of accumulation and a larger capital investment.

"By the way, Xiang Yang, the reason why Uncle went out this time and came back so soon is because I caught a net of fish that I have never seen before. Can you help me go to the boat and have a look?" Gang Wu asked .

When Xiang Yang heard this, he immediately became interested, "I caught a net, so it seems that the number of fish is not a small number, and it is not a rare sea fish. Uncle Gang Wu, you can't recognize it? Where did you go to sea this time?" ?”

Fifth Uncle Gang scratched his head in embarrassment, "I don't know where I went, anyway, I just sailed southward for two days."

Xiang Yang nodded, "Okay, I happen to have time, so I might as well go and have a look, maybe the net fish you caught, Fifth Uncle Gang, is a rare catch."

Gang Wu was overjoyed when he heard the words, and hurriedly led the way for Xiang Yang.

Soon, the group arrived at the pier.

Chen Qingsheng said to Xiang Yang: "Captain, Lao Xu and I will go back to the boat first."

"Well, okay, I'll come to the boat to find you in a while." Xiang Yang nodded.

Seeing what Xiang Yang said, Gang Wu hurriedly asked, "Yangzi, do you have something to do later?"

Xiang Yang shook his head, told Gang Wu that he had ordered a watchtower, and explained that someone would send him a watchtower later.

Gang Wu breathed a sigh of relief after hearing this, if Xiang Yang didn't have time, and helped him come over to identify the strange sea fish, then he would feel very sorry from the bottom of his heart.

Soon, Xiang Yang followed Gang Wu to his small fishing boat.

"Yangzi, look, it's this fish." Gang Wu opened a big wooden barrel on the boat and said to Xiang Yang.

Xiang Yang looked into the bucket, and a look of disappointment flashed across his eyes.

"Yangzi, is this fish worth much?" Fifth Uncle Gang asked nervously.

The fish in the wooden barrel are all fiery red and look like melon seeds. Seen from a distance, they look like flaming fires, and they look very good-looking.

Judging from Gang Wu’s years of fishing experience, the price of such a beautiful fish will definitely not be cheap.

Xiang Yang nodded, "Well, you are lucky. This fish is called melon seed spot, also known as reticulate carp, cross fish, grouper, red rudder, red melon seed spot. Grouper is really a delicacy for foodies, although it is not a rare seafood, but it can be regarded as a relatively valuable seafood."

Melon seed grouper is widely distributed, and it is produced along the entire coastline of my country.

However, it is difficult for ordinary fishermen to catch it because it is a deep-water fish.

Gang Wu was lucky to catch a net of melon seeds, but unfortunately, this is not a rare sea fish for Xiang Yang.

"How much can this fish sell for a catty?" Gang Wu asked expectantly.

Xiang Yang thought for a while and said: "The current cultivation technology of melon seeds is very developed. In the market, the price of cultivated melon seeds is very cheap. For wholesale melon seeds weighing about one catty, a box of twenty catties, a The box only costs about 1,000 yuan, but you are wild, and the price is about ten times more expensive than farmed ones.”

When Gang Wu heard this, he quickly calculated.

The breeding is 20 catties per box, and a box costs 1,000 yuan.

Divide one thousand by twenty, that is fifty yuan a catty.

The price of wild is ten times that of farmed, that is.

"Can this fish be sold for 500 yuan a catty?" Gang Wu asked in surprise.

Xiang Yang smiled and nodded.

Although the five hundred yuan a catty that Xiang Yang said was referring to the selling price of the melon seeds, the purchase price, about one catty of fresh melon seeds should be around two hundred yuan per catty.

But seafood is all about size. The melon seeds of Steel Five are not small, and the purchase price should be more than three hundred yuan a catty.

As for the difference between the purchase price and the selling price, Steel Five definitely knew about it.

After all, these melon seeds are all alive, and seafood buyers have to bear a lot of risk if they buy them. Once a few of them die, the seafood buyers will lose a lot.

"Choose a bigger one for me, and I'll buy it for you at the market price." Xiang Yang said with a smile.

The color of the melon seed spot is red and magnificent, and the skin is rich in colloid, which is thicker and tougher than ordinary fish. When it is steamed and placed on a plate, the skin will not have flaws and the color will be more vivid. It can be said to be beautiful in shape and appearance. square things.

When Xiang Yang saw these fresh melon seed spots, he immediately wanted to buy one that would taste the usual taste.

When Gang Wu heard this, he quickly picked out the biggest melon seed spot in the barrel, handed it to Xiang Yang and said, "Yangzi, you like to eat this uncle Yu as a gift for you, so don't buy it for anything."

Xiang Yang quickly refused: "Uncle Gang Wu, if you say that, then I won't be able to take your fish."

After speaking, Xiang Yang made a gesture and walked down the boat.
