The Fish I Catch Can Be Upgraded

  Chapter 366 Ice fishing in Fuego

   Tierra del Fuego is not far away, but the speed of the boat is very slow. After a day of leisure and relaxation on the boat, they arrived at their destination after recharging their energy.

   "Acheng, you said that there are king crabs in the north, and there are also in the south near Antarctica. Why don't we have any in our country's waters?"

   "This thing is flooding so fast, if there is one in China, wouldn't we be able to realize the freedom of crabs?"

   Zhang Wei is now in the seafood business, and he is very greedy for this king crab. This thing is very profitable!

  Chu Mingcheng was moved when he heard the words, thinking about the possibility of releasing king crabs.

   But in the end, he shook his head. Huaxia waters are not suitable for king crabs to survive, and even with the bonus of his cheats, they may not be able to survive.

  Moreover, domestic waters also have their own ecology, and powerful creatures like king crabs will undoubtedly destroy the local ecology.

   "No matter how good the marine resources are, they can't compare to the good climate of our country's mainland, which is suitable for people to live in. Don't think that if you don't have any of these, tens of millions of income a year can't satisfy you?"

   "Who would dislike a lot of money!" Zhang Wei curled his lips, "You think I'm an old horse?"

  Chen Yang laughed when he heard the words: "I'm not interested in money, try to make him lose it!"

  Chu Mingcheng was stunned for a moment, he doesn't care much about money now, and his career has naturally developed to this extent.

  But if he were to return to the starting point, he would definitely not be able to accept this gap.

  So you don’t have to be interested in money, but you definitely can’t be without it.

  Now they all have three ocean-going fishing boats over 40 meters long, and five domestic fishing boats over 20 meters long.

  The monthly profits are already very considerable, especially with the tuna fishing locations he provided, which made them a lot of money.

  Zhang Wei can earn almost tens of millions of dollars a year just by collecting fish catches and reselling them, and this income will continue to increase as time goes by, not to mention Chuming City, which has so many ships.

  These are when he was traveling, Chen Yang and Zhang Wei helped to purchase and recruit people, and expanded the fleet.

  Of course, with such a huge business chain, they also registered a fishing company and paid taxes reasonably.

  Because they pay a lot of taxes every month, the local government also gave them a lot of convenience, and even gave them some convenient policies for ocean fishing, encouraging them to go fishing on the high seas or even other countries as much as possible.

  For example, in Argentina, there are domestic fishermen fishing for giant squid here.

  Chu Mingcheng naturally earns more than Chen Yang and Zhang Wei, but he is currently accumulating funds and plans to buy a super fishing boat to enter the Antarctic waters to fish toothfish or Antarctic krill.

   But we still have to wait. The main reason is that we can’t buy a suitable second-hand boat. Secondly, it will take time to buy a new boat and fall into the water.

  The price of such a ship is at least in the unit of 100 million, and Chu Ming City does not have that much money at present.

   But the local government provided loan business, and he did not insist on full payment as before, which is unrealistic.

   With his income of 10 to 20 million, it’s okay to say, how can hundreds of millions or even 20 to 30 million be paid in one lump sum with working capital, even if he had it, he would not do so.

   Naturally, they thought about fishing king crabs in Chuming City, but it was very difficult for them to get there in the Bering Sea and they could not get the fishing quota. It would be very troublesome to get caught.

   There are king crabs in the deep Pacific Ocean, but he didn't bother to look for them.

  For fishing, the three women are not very interested.

   But for king crabs, they were even more active than the men in Chu Mingcheng, and the fishing rods, small nets and other tools were prepared early.

   When they came to a suitable crab fishing area, they found that there were still many tourists fishing here.

  Some people like them, rented a boat to fish on the sea, and some people opened a hole in the thick ice.

   Several people in Chuming City discussed it and felt that they could fish at any time on the boat, so today they will try ice fishing for king crabs.

   But before that, they put two small crab pots specially used to catch king crabs.

  This crab cage is bought locally and can be used at sea.

  Large crab pots like that cannot be used here. There is also an area for professional king crab fishing.

  Put down the cage, there is no mistake if there is a float on the cage.

   Then they took the assault boat that came with the ship and came to a thick ice layer.

  The group of them did not dig holes in the ice immediately, but looked for the caves left by the predecessors on the ice.

   After a short while, they each found a suitable fishing spot.

  Although the cave was frozen again, it was much thinner than the ice layer. Chu Mingcheng used tools to break up the frozen ice, and then picked up the shovel to get out all the broken ice and put it aside.

   Zhang Wei and the others did the same. Soon, they started fishing for king crabs.

   Fishing king crabs is actually a small hook, but in order to increase the chance of being hooked, a small fishing net needs to be wrapped between the hook and the fish.

  King crabs have sharp thorns all over their bodies, and it is difficult to get rid of them if they are caught by these fishing nets.

   You don’t need to learn these, just find a video of king crab fishing on the Internet to understand.

  The method of fishing king crabs can actually be used to catch ordinary crabs. Anyway, fishing aquatic animals with sharp edges and corners can get very good results.

  After getting Jiang Luoluo the fishing tools, Chu Mingcheng also got one for himself, and then the two sat face to face on the small bench they brought, and started fishing for king crabs.

  The cave is very large, with a diameter of one meter, and the two sides do not disturb each other. After all, it is not fishing.

   This time I used squid meat to catch king crabs. There are many of them in Argentina. I specially picked some small ones and the price is very cheap, which is comparable to domestic sardines.

  Cut the squid into large pieces, hang them on the hook, wrap the fishing net and sink into the bottom of the sea together with the lead pendant, and wait for the king crab to bite the hook.

  The water here is very deep, almost 300 meters.

  King crabs basically only live in the deep sea, and 300 meters is actually not that deep. King crabs in the Bering Sea can even survive in waters of 700 to 800 meters.

   "Ah Cheng, will this king crab be easier to catch than fish?"

   "That's for sure. After taking the bait, there is almost no movement of struggling. However, the crab eats the bait with little movement. Generally, after catching the bait, it will start to grow big."

"The bait is almost in place and will not move, just because there will be a slight shake after being caught by the crab's pliers, and the signal transmitted to us will be very weak, so we wait a few seconds when the fishing rod moves a little, and then try again. Just lift it up and feel the weight."

  Jiang Luoluo nodded knowingly, then looked at the fishing rod that seemed to be moving but not moving, and tried to lift it.

   "Hey, it's a bit heavy, did you get hooked?"

  As soon as she started, she noticed something, either the hook was hanging on the bottom, or a king crab had already taken the bait.

   "So fast?" Chu Mingcheng was a little stunned, he didn't make a nest yet?

   But looking at the next moment of the cave, he suddenly realized.

  Because people often fish king crabs in these caves, the crabs at the bottom of the water know that there is food here, so the crabs gather together like nests.

   Immediately he lifted the fishing rod himself, and found that it was also a little heavy.

   Immediately, he and Jiang Luoluo shook the fishing reel together.

   Luckily, there was no bottom hanging, and the fishing line was retrieved smoothly.

  After a short while, two king crabs covered with spikes, one big and one small, were lifted up.

   "Haha, mine is so big, yours is so small!"

  When the two king crabs came out of the water, Jiang Luoluo laughed happily, as if winning Chu Mingcheng made her very happy.

  Chu Mingcheng himself was full of black lines, and he doubted whether the hacker had left him at this moment.

  Obviously there was a cheat bonus, but he estimated that this one weighed only one catty, while Jiang Luoluo's weighed at least three or four catties.

   A pound of crab is not small, but it is a baby crab that has not grown up on the king crab.

"Excellent, Luo Luo, I haven't started fishing yet, but you have already caught one. This one is not small, it seems that we have a good lunch at noon!" Zhang Wei is still fiddling with fishing rods, so he has nothing to do Bai Jing came over and did not hesitate to praise her.

   The things harvested by recreational fishing here are either released or eaten, and they are not allowed to take away or buy or sell.

  They came here to experience it and save some of it for themselves.

   "Hey, that's a must, watch mine today!" Jiang Luoluo enthusiastically put the king crab into the fish box next to it, and continued fishing.

  The eating speed of the king crab is not fast. As far as the time she brought it up, the bait is basically well preserved, but it is caught in a few places and can be used continuously.

  A large piece of squid weighs at least half a catty, and you might be able to catch it for a day.

   It’s okay even if it’s not fresh, maybe the king crab will be more attractive by then.

  Of course, it is very difficult to make things smelly in the low temperature here.

  Chu Mingcheng threw back the little crab in his hand. As for whether it would take the bait again, he thought it would not.

   It's too late to escape, you can't starve to death and reincarnate!

   Then continue fishing, and every time they feel a little movement, they will gently lift the fishing rod.

  Catching crabs is different from fishing. Crabs use pliers to eat bait, unlike fish, so the hook is not enough for them.

  Sometimes the fishing net does not entangle the crabs, and they will be unhooked when they are lifted, so even if they are hooked, they may not be able to pull out of the water.

   Fortunately, there are a lot of king crabs, and the baiting is relatively frequent, so it still brings people the fun of fishing.

   Shaking and shaking, Chu Mingcheng finally caught a big king crab with teeth and claws.

  The one in front of me weighs about six to seven catties, which is a normal size even in Alaska.

  But the two types of king crab are different. The one here belongs to Chilean king crab, which is red all over and covered with small thorns.

  The average size is much smaller than the king crab in the Bering Sea, and should be about the same size as the golden king crab.

  Because the distance is too far, even if this king crab appears in China, it is basically cooked and frozen.

  Suitable for heavy-tasting recipes such as curry and spicy stir-fry, don't even think about steaming.

   But what they fish for themselves is naturally different, and they can eat whatever they want.

  After they caught good-sized king crabs one after another in Chuming City, Zhang Wei and Chen Yang also opened their businesses.

  Everyone was a little excited for a while, it was the joy of harvest.

   After a short while, Jiang Luoluo suddenly let out a light snort, and the fishing rod in her hand was beating slightly normally.

   "Ah Cheng, what's wrong with my fishing rod, I seem to have caught something else?"

  Chu Mingcheng looked up: "Hehe, this looks a bit like a lobster!"

  He was a little puzzled, why Jiang Luoluo's luck was so much better than his own today, and he might even catch a lobster?

  In normal times, no matter who fishes with him, he is the first to reap the rewards, and he is also the one who reaps the most.

   Immediately, he looked at his wife's belly covered by the thick down jacket, and suddenly realized.

  This is a newborn buff, it's normal to be better than yourself.

   This special situation is not common, and it is not surprising to happen once in a while.

  As Jiang Luoluo retracted, a red lobster about 50 centimeters long appeared in front of the two of them.

  The lobster didn't eat the hook, it was just entangled in the fishing net, maybe just passing by?

   It can only be said that Jiang Luoluo's luck today is unstoppable.

   "Why does this look so much like Aolong?" She lifted the lobster out of the water and put it on the ice, without catching it rashly.

  50cm lobster is not small, and its tail flapping is very beneficial.

  When she was pregnant, Jiang Luoluo paid great attention to her own safety.

   "It should be Chilean lobster!" Chu Mingcheng stepped forward to untie the lobster from the fishing net and put it into the fish box.

   "Argentina and Chile are neighbors, and Tierra del Fuego is very close to the south of Chile. It is normal for the two sides to share seafood."

   "This lobster is amazing, try to survive in such deep waters." Jiang Luoluo didn't expect that he could catch a lobster. In his impression, lobsters only live on reefs or corals in shallow water.

  Chu Mingcheng popularized science: "The situation of this cold-water lobster is different. This lobster will go to the deep sea area from August to November because of spawning. But intelligence lobsters are generally in the middle of intelligence. I didn't expect that there are also here."

   "Oh, no matter why it appeared here, anyway, we are lucky today." Jiang Luoluo didn't care about these, she was just happy because of what she had gained today!

   Next, not only lobsters were produced, but even salmon and plaice appeared to compete with king crabs, which surprised the group.

  They all thought that there were only king crabs here, but they didn't expect the species to be quite rich.

  This also led to their very good lunch, not only lobster and crab, but also salmon and plaice.

  Chef Chu is online again today, and he is proficient in steaming, grilling and frying.

   Zhang Wei and Chen Yang, who were just handling the ingredients, were taken aback by the king crab.

  Because when they opened the belly of the king crab, they saw so many parasites that they almost thought that the king crab could not be eaten.

  In the end, Chu Mingcheng repeatedly explained that the king crabs had a lot of parasites in the first place, and they understood it after some popular science.

  Then the two who dismantled the crab and looked disgusted were not polite at all when eating.

   Fortunately, there is plenty of food, even if they rush to eat, they will have enough.

  Meimei had a lunch and drank some wine, and they each took a nap with their daughters-in-law in their arms.

   Pregnant women naturally did not drink alcohol, and only drank fruit juice.

  So in the afternoon, the cabin on the left side is very quiet, but the cabin on the right side is a bit lively, and the man in the slightly drunk state is very fierce.

  The next day, instead of fishing for crabs, they took a tour around Tierra del Fuego.

   Then I returned the boat and chose to continue playing elsewhere.
