Catch the sea: start with a sand shovel and take over the entire beach
Chapter 1127 The Reward of Persistence
Wang Xin followed suit and began to let the line down. When he let it down to about 200 meters, he felt the tip of the rod shake violently.
"Lao Wang, push the electric reel, you caught a fish."
"Is it really a hit?" A day of air force made him doubt that it was an illusion. At this moment, Zhao Qin reminded him, and he hurriedly pushed the electric winch.
As the electric wrench made a creaking sound, Lao Wang put his hands together and started muttering something.
"What are you doing?"
"You can't get off the hook. It took so much effort to get it."
Zhao Qin could no longer hold back his laughter. Looking at the speed at which the fishing line was reeled in, Wang Xin knew that the fish was not very big, but he was still very happy as he had finally taken off his air force hat.
After a while, the electric winch stopped, and Zhao Qin instructed Lao Wang, "Reel in four or five turns of line by hand, and raise the rod. Yes, retrieve the fish trap first..."
Finally the fish floated to the surface. Zhao Qin took the landing net, took a look and said with a smile, "Not bad, Wang, the first one is a double fly."
"Why do I feel like your tone is weird?"
"Get out." Zhao Qin cursed with a smile. Old Wang actually knew how to make a joke.
When the fish was caught, Wang Xin squatted down and took a closer look. "Aqin, what kind of fish is this? It looks weird."
This was also the first time Zhao Qin had seen this kind of fish. He unhooked the fish with his hands and carefully observed its appearance. His mind was receiving scientific information from the system.
This fish does look strange, with a protruding mouth and many eyes, looking a bit like a big-eyed chicken. In fact, all deep-sea fish are like this, with larger eyes. After all, the light at the bottom of the sea is extremely weak.
They need to find food, which forces their eyes to evolve.
The body is brick red, very bright, the dorsal fin is very sharp, and there is a small gap in the chest and abdomen, as if it had been cut by a knife and the wound has not yet healed completely.
This is its lateral line, which is used to sense water flow.
The mouth is very big. When I unhooked it, I found that the inside of the mouth, including the gills, was blue-black, just like it had just eaten blueberries and hadn't rinsed its mouth yet. This is very similar to the red sea bass.
During the observation process, he also read the popular science of the system, and then replied to Lao Wang, "The local name is longevity fish, and the scientific name is orange roughy."
"Can this fish live for a long time? Aren't these two still fish fry?"
These two fish are not really big, one is about three pounds, and the other is more than two pounds. Lao Wang is very worried. He has finally opened a business, and he doesn't want to let them go again.
"I heard that this fish can live up to 160 years old, which is longer than the normal lifespan of a human. Moreover, it grows very slowly, reaching sexual maturity at the age of 25 or above, which is later than humans."
Lao Wang found what he said interesting and couldn't help laughing.
"Although it can live so long, it can't grow up. A fish weighing more than 4 pounds is considered very old. I estimate that these two are at least or years old."
"Wow, no wonder it's called the longevity fish."
Zhao Qin put the fish in the refrigerator and added after returning, "It is called longevity fish because it lives a long time and because of its medicinal and edible value. This fish is rich in dozens of trace elements needed by the human body.
Vitamins, high protein and so on. Fish heads also contain the ingredient brain gold, which can nourish the brain and slow down brain aging. Fish bones can nourish the liver and kidneys. In short, it is a treasure all over the body.”
"So it's expensive?"
Zhao Qin was stunned. Yes, it should be very expensive, but the system estimated it to be only 48 per pound, not even 50.
But after a moment he understood, "This fish is widely distributed, in the Atlantic Ocean, the Indian Ocean, and the Pacific Ocean. It is rare in our area, but there should be more in the Atlantic Ocean.
In addition, these fish like to gather in groups. I heard that sometimes schools of fish in the sea can stretch for tens of kilometers.”
"So there are a lot of them down there?" Old Wang excitedly organized his fishing gear. He didn't care how expensive it was, as long as he could catch as much as he could, at least more than his fellow villager.
Zhao Qin did not refute. In his opinion, there must be more than two fish below. As for whether he could catch the rest, that was difficult... Before he could finish his thought, his rod was caught with a fish.
"Ah Qin, the fish doesn't look big, it should be this guy."
Zhao Qin lightly hummed, and after a while the fish was pulled up. It was indeed a longevity fish. Although it was only one, it was obviously bigger, about four pounds. It would have taken more than a hundred years to grow to this size.
Lao Wang didn't have to wait long this time. He just put it at a depth of 200 meters and caught another fish.
This is consistent with the active water layer of the system science popularization. The longevity fish has a wide range of water layers and is often found in the twilight zone in the sea (the depth of 201 to 1006 meters is called the twilight zone).
The longevity fish's activities are actually even wider, and it can be seen from 180 meters to 1800 meters.
"Haha, Aqin, I'm having a threesome again." Lao Wang was as happy as a child, and he no longer had the reticence he had at the beginning.
Zhao Qin put the bait on the hook and caught another fish in the same water layer. He couldn't help feeling depressed. It would be great if his own fishing boat came.
If my 75-meter boat is built, I might be able to catch all the fish in one net. A net could hold hundreds of tons of fish. Just thinking about it makes me excited.
But now, it's just something I can think about.
"Ah Qin, why don't you wake up Shu Ge and Yi Ming as well?"
"Actually, the main reason we come out is to have fun, I think..."
Lao Wang didn't even wait for him to finish and quickly ran back to the bottom cabin. As a result, as soon as he left, the guy's fishing rod was caught with a fish again. His speed was unparalleled.
After a while, Lao Tong went up on the deck first and saw Zhao Qin catching the fish. "It's really a longevity fish. This fish is good, the price is good, and it tastes good too."
Zhao Qin had never eaten it before and wanted to ask about its taste, but Lao Tong ran to organize his fishing gear after he finished speaking. By the time Zhang Yiming went up on the deck, Lao Wang had already caught seven fish.
In the following period, everyone worked hard to produce.
When Zhao Qin found that the number of fish was decreasing, he would return to the helm and drive the yacht, which had drifted away from the school of fish, back to its original position. He was busy like this until nearly two o'clock.
The current stopped again and the school of fish seemed to be nowhere to be found, so everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
"Aqin, we have caught about 400 kilograms of fish this time. On average, each of us has about 100 kilograms." Lao Tong smiled happily.
Zhao Qin smiled and glanced at Lao Wang next to him, "Thanks to Lao Wang, if he hadn't insisted on sitting and fishing, we would have really missed the fish. Well, now go take a shower and go to bed. I will continue to keep watch. I will collect the fishing rods if you put them down."
This time, Lao Wang didn't have any obsessions. He just wanted to have a good sleep.
After the three of them went to rest, he began to pack up his fishing rods, without leaving any. It was true that he loved fishing, but he always had to take a break.
It was very boring to keep watch alone. He really didn't bring any books on board this time. After thinking for a while, he took the book that Lao Zhang had left on the middle deck and read it.
After reading for a while, he found that he couldn't read any more. This kind of book seemed more suitable for entrepreneurs or confused people.
It's well written, but he is not Wang Duoyu now. He is not confused about his future at all. He knows very well what he can do and what he wants.
The idea he insists on is always pragmatic. He will feed himself first, then his family, and if conditions permit, the people around him. If these can be accomplished, then he will see if he can do something that benefits more people.
His moral integrity is not comparable to those of noble people. He cannot do such things as sacrificing his own body to feed a tiger or cutting his own flesh to feed an eagle.
He put the book down, and his time for reflection was over. He put on a coat and went to the upper deck. He sat down and began to meditate as his master had taught him.
……
PS: This cold is not that bad. My head doesn't hurt, but my nose keeps running. Damn, I feel like my nose and upper lip are patinated from wiping the snot.
Some people say that many authors like to have headaches and overexcitement. Are they pretending to be pitiful and making excuses for not updating? I don't think this is necessary.
I have noticed that a lot of people are catching colds during this period.
