My Deep-sea Fishery

Chapter 189 Tongue Kun Fish

It didn't take long for the fishing net to be untied, and the sea fish wrapped in it were untied and immediately jumped on the deck.

Without Xiang Yang's instructions, the crew immediately began to consciously clean up the catch.

"Hey, what kind of fish is this? Why does it look like a slug?" Fang Youqun, who was lying on the pile of fish cleaning up the catch, suddenly jumped back and pointed at a monster that looked like a large blood-sucking worm with disgust. fishway.

Xiang Yang took a closer look there, and was immediately delighted, "Isn't this Tongue Kunyu?"

Tonguekun fish is a kind of flounder and is also a nobleman among flounder. Its appearance is flat on the side and asymmetrical on both sides. Both eyes are located on the left side of the head. The longest body can grow up to 80 cm. It is a very important economic fish in our country. It can be eaten fresh or canned.

"What? Tongue Kunyu? Where is it?" He Mingde, who heard the conversation from the side, rushed over with a stride.

"It's there." Xiang Yang pointed with a smile.

"Just one?" He Mingde was disappointed when he saw it, "I thought there were many."

"Is this fish very valuable?" Fang Youqun wondered, "This fish is so ugly that no one will eat it. Could it be an ornamental fish? Tsk tsk, those people outside really have a problem with their aesthetics."

"You're wrong." Xiang Yang walked over and grabbed the tongue kun fish and threw it into the basin, "The tongue kun fish is not an ornamental fish, it is a top food with a very good taste. Its own reproductive ability is very weak, so it is very rare, and it is also very expensive in the market, at least a few hundred yuan a catty in the market, not cheaper than ordinary big lobsters."

Fang Youqun frowned, thinking that the tastes of those people outside are really strong, such an ugly fish can actually be eaten, look at that slippery appearance, if it were him, he would not eat it to death.

Xiang Yang smiled and did not explain. Fish itself has a lot of nutrients, and the meat is delicate and easily absorbed by the human body. This is especially true for the slippery tongue kun fish. This is a fish that many people especially like to eat , but its price is doomed that only a small number of people can afford it.

There are quite a few yellow-headed fish in this net, which is a very economical fish species.

Although there is only one word difference between yellow croaker and yellow croaker, the price is very different. Generally, yellow croaker is sold in seafood markets, but yellow croaker is different. The price is even more expensive than grass carp. Not much, ten yuan a catty.

However, Xiang Yang knows that there are many ways to cook yellow-headed fish. It can be braised in brown sauce, steamed, or fried. The yellow-headed fish produced in this way is a very good seafood. It is a cheap and delicious sea fish. .

Xiang Yang didn't dislike the fact that it was cheap, and while asking the crew to freeze them in a foam box, he also picked out more than a dozen of them by himself and put them in a water tank to raise them, waiting for a tooth sacrifice when he was hungry.

"Why are horsehead fish everywhere?" Xiang Yang has forgotten that this is the first time he has caught horsehead fish, and each time the number is not small, and this time is the same. The ground is full, conservatively estimated to be at least a thousand catties.

This kind of economical sea fish was actually quite expensive in the early years. Before the economic level was so developed, a catty of horsehead fish could be sold for 15 yuan at that time. At that time, the monthly salary per capita was only about 400 yuan. .

But it is different now. Although the price of horsehead fish has risen to 40 to 50 yuan a catty, our economic conditions are much more developed than before.

"The horse-head fish is better than the yellow-head fish." He Mingde was very happy, and put the horse-head fish into the living water tank by himself.

Xiang Yang shook his head slightly, and after cleaning up a few yellow-headed fish, he took a few steps back and stopped doing it himself.

Cleaning up the catch is very untechnical, and the crew can do it very well. Xiang Yang has more important tasks now. He has to keep an eye on these catches. If he can find valuable and rare catches from them, he will immediately Discover.

The catch in this net was quite a lot, and the total should be about 7,000 catties.

Among them, three to four thousand catties are very cheap cuttlefish and squid, and horsehead fish and yellow head fish each have about one thousand catties.

The rest are some scattered fish species, including about two to three hundred catties of pomfret.

Sturgeon is a fish that many people should know, and it can be seen in the seafood market all year round.

This kind of fish is very beautiful in color, but unfortunately, the sturgeon caught by Xiang Yang are not very big. If the pomfret is bigger, the price is generally more expensive, but the smaller pomfret is more expensive. It's relatively cheap.

But it doesn't matter.

Anyway, it only weighed two to three hundred catties. These pomfrets, Xiang Yang, were not going to take them home and sell them, so they stayed on board to give the crew extra meals.

Sturgeon meat is very high-quality in terms of taste and meat quality. After eating the staple food, drink a bowl of pomfret soup, the taste is even more amazing.

"With so many catches, there is not even a single rare catch. It's really unlucky." A crew member complained after cleaning up the catch.

"Why not, this tongue kun fish and those two big lobsters, aren't these all valuable catches?" Xiang Yang said with a smile.

Although the income from this fishing net is not a lot, it is definitely worth tens of thousands of dollars to sell. The horsehead fish alone can be sold for 30,000 to 40,000 dollars. At least the cost of this trip to the sea is definitely paid back. , and the rest are all pure profits, Xiang Yang has no reason to be unhappy.

"Just one tongue fish and two lobsters are also rare catches?" Some crew members felt that Xiang Yang's grade was lower than before.

"Okay, it's good to have it, it's said to be a rare catch, how can it be so easy to get?" Xiang Yang scolded with a smile.

Then the fishing boat continued to sail eastward, and Xiang Yang asked Zhou Wang to cast two more nets along the way.

However, since this sea area is close to a large wharf and there are many fishing boats, fishery resources are really scarce.

The next two nets that Xiang Yang cast did not catch much.

The first net came out empty, and only less than one hundred catties of saury was caught in the loose net. The saury is a kind of sea fish that can be seen often. Although this kind of sea fish is really delicious, it contains Rich in protein, but because the quantity is too large, the price can never be sold, it is a very cheap popular delicacy.

The second net was even worse, it turned out to be leaf fish, and it was also only about a hundred catties.

Leaf fish is a kind of sea fish often seen in coastal seafood markets. It is cheap and small in size.

However, He Mingde told several old crew members that the flesh of this fish is particularly delicious, and the leaf fish boiled in soy sauce is the best in the world. After hearing this, Xiang Yang raised these leaf fish in a water tank, ready to try it out.
