Chapter 674: Going Out to Sea to Fish for Giant Squid (1/2)

In the eyes of outsiders, Li Duoyu seems to be very capable, but many times, he doesn't understand what he is going to do.

In this era of wild growth, he has established a good relationship with the organization. Anyway, he does whatever is needed, and there is no resistance at all.

In the end, Li Duoyu found that the entire industrial chain was almost completed by him.

The more concentrated the industrial chain, the higher the efficiency and the better the industrial development. Li Duoyu can't explain things that are too formal.

But he understands one thing, that is, he had the honor to visit the Putian shoe production base in his previous life.

There, the industrial chain is shockingly complete. The production links of a new shoe, from design, procurement to final sales, are closely linked.

Although Li Duoyu is not so perfect now, the industrial chain still looks very rough, but it has begun to develop.

At present, Minlong has core technologies such as seedlings, feed formulas, and breeding standards.

As breeding becomes more stable, Li Duoyu is now more focused on adding value to the product, in other words, the second processing.

By then, if the entire industrial chain is fully connected, it will not only be Dandan Island and Shangfeng Town that are making money.

If it develops well in the future, it may be a large industry that tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of people rely on for survival.

These days, Li Duoyu inspected the eel breeding base in Nanri Town, and Lin Youming and Liu Yun cooperated very well.

It may be that the breeding base in Nanri Town has very good mountain spring water, and the eels bred here are even better than those on Dandan Island.

Li Duoyu picked up one at random and could clearly feel that the eel was very beautiful and energetic.

For outsiders, although eels look the same and it is difficult to tell the difference, for a chef who has been slaughtering and grilling eels for a long time.

There is still a little difference. Whether the eel is in good condition, in addition to looking at the body of the fish, the most important thing is to look at the fins.

If the fins are bright and beautiful, it is like a human with a good complexion, and this kind of eel is relatively healthy and easy to raise.

"Yes, it's very well raised."

Li Duoyu gave Lin Youming a high evaluation. This person is not incompetent, but he took the wrong path at the beginning.

"Thank you for Mr. Li's affirmation."

Lin Youming is really grateful to Li Duoyu. These days, watching these eels grow day by day, his heart is full of joy.

At the same time, it also reminds him of some past events. Two years ago, he also came to Nanri Town with hope, but since he followed Zhang Sanming, it ended up in a mess.

Fortunately, he withdrew quickly, so he was not affected. Now that he has followed Li Duoyu, he found that eel breeding is not as difficult as he imagined.

According to the standard process that Li Duoyu gave him, there will be basically no problems.

But even after the disease, it is still difficult for him to handle it alone, and he has to ask Mr. Li to come over for help every time.

Sometimes, Lin Youming will also reflect on whether he is really too bad. Mr. Li, who is so young, is so busy every day. How can he have such comprehensive knowledge?

And every time I see him, I feel like he seems to be even more powerful, while I am still at the stage of breeding eels.

And Mr. Li is already breeding shrimps, making feed, and even producing canned seafood.

"Alas!"

He is too lazy to think about things that he can't figure out. Anyway, he just recognizes one thing, that is, to raise eels well.

In addition to inspecting the eel breeding base, Li Duoyu also inspected the shrimp breeding base by the way, but it was still the same old story.

This time, Li Duoyu still adopted the mixed breeding model of shrimps and crabs, and many shrimp farmers followed suit and started the mixed breeding model with him.

The Zhao brothers, who are good at catching blue crab seedlings, really caught the opportunity this time and temporarily set up a team to provide blue crab seedlings to these shrimp farmers.

It feels that since the two brothers became millionaires, the speed of making money has been completely unstoppable.

Li Duoyu doesn't know how much money the two brothers have made so far, but it is certain that it will definitely not be less.

Otherwise, they would not have the courage to take out a loan to order a large iron-hulled fishing boat like the one in their Li family.

Speaking of which, Dandan Island has really changed a lot this year. Now, if the fishing boats return to the port late at the old pier, there is no place to stop. They can only drive to the new pier and then walk back.

In addition to the increase of nearly doubled small boats, there are currently three large boats under "construction" on Dandan Island.

One belongs to the Zhao brothers, one belongs to Lao Lu, and the other largest one belongs to their Li family.

After the end of Pudu this year, the eldest uncle and the third uncle were ready to "separate the family". The two of them no longer work on the same boat.

After all, both of them are boat bosses. It was okay to get along at the beginning. After being together for a long time, even husband and wife will dislike each other.

Not to mention brothers, Li Duoyu also heard that the eldest uncle and the third uncle had quarreled several times on the boat.

They almost got into a fight, but fortunately they were stopped by the eldest uncle and the second uncle.

At the Changwei Shipyard, they have been working day and night to produce the second big ship of the Li family recently.

Compared with the previous one, this new ship is bigger and stronger, and this ship is not a trawler, but a ship specially used for squid fishing, but it is not a particularly advanced one.

This ship was produced mainly to cooperate with a new product of the Minlong Processing Plant, which is grilled squid strips.

Not all squids are suitable for grilled squid strips, and Pacific deep-sea squids are more suitable for grilled squid strips.

But this kind of squid is found in offshore fishing grounds, and fishing boats have to sail very far away. Ordinary fishing boats are definitely not feasible.

The steel fishing boat customized by the Li family last time was only about 150,000 yuan, but this squid fishing boat cost even more. It went straight to Wujitou, and the hull was twice as big.

When Li Duoyu said that he was going to build this big ship, the entire Li family was very excited, especially the older generation.

They have an unspeakable obsession with big boats, especially old fishermen like the uncle and third uncle. When Li Duoyu said he wanted to build another big boat.

The two agreed on the spot.

But building a boat is much slower than building a house. Even if it is the fastest, it will have to wait until the next year before it is possible to hand over the squid fishing boat to them.

So at this stage, the uncle and the third uncle are still fishing together. They are unhappy and unhappy, but they still work as usual.

During this period of time, they simply modified the original trawler and sailed to the deep sea outside the Zhoushan fishing ground to conduct boat fishing for giant squid.

What they are fishing for this time is Pacific squid, a large squid that is generally about 40 centimeters in length.

This is also the largest squid that can be caught in my country's coastal waters, and the Pacific deep-sea squid is the huge red squid, most of which are concentrated in the waters off Argentina and Peru.

In their previous life, they had many squid fishing boats here, and they went there to catch squid for two years.

When the crew went there, everything was fine, but when they came back, they were all crazy and would go into heat whenever they saw a sow.

For some coastal people who have been deceived into working on a black-hearted squid fishing boat, getting on such a boat is much scarier than being deceived into going to "Bianbei".

Dozens of grown men live on a 45-meter-long ship for two years, usually sleeping on wooden boards less than one meter wide.

He couldn't see a single woman, and when he opened his eyes or closed his eyes, he was just working, which would drive a normal person crazy.

Li Duoyu remembers that since the 1990s, domestic squid fishing boats have been going to the offshore waters of Argentina and Peru for squid fishing operations.

It was okay at first, but I don’t know since when, there have been various shady aquatic products companies that specialize in trapping fishermen.

After tricking the fishermen, they started tricking the locals. To be honest, if it hadn't been for the famous Pacific robbery and murder case that happened later, all the darkness of the squid fishing boats would have been made public.

It is estimated that the public will not notice this terrifying gray area at all.

If the grilled shredded squid sells well, Li Duoyu will definitely buy more squid fishing boats, but he is different from those black-hearted bosses.

Li Duoyu will 100% satisfy them in terms of welfare. First of all, the entertainment aspect of the crew is absolutely indispensable.

There must be some kind of video recorder, TV, etc., and all kinds of movies are also indispensable. We should give young people a place to vent their anger, so that they will not become so angry that they think about fighting all day long.

The fishing ground off the coast of Zhoushan is relatively far away. It will take about four days to sail there.

After Li Duoyu made arrangements for the company's affairs, he secretly boarded the ship and pretended to be at sea to relax.

But on the second day, I started to feel a little irritable. Unfortunately, the uncle and third uncle really didn't have much entertainment on the boat.

There is not even a pair of mahjong to be found. The most popular entertainment item is that everyone gets together to play cards. Maybe for the sake of excitement, they still gamble some money, but the amount is relatively small.

It's almost like this. Even if you are very unlucky, you will lose more than ten yuan a day at most, and it will be difficult to go up again.

But if you gamble too much, once you are discovered, you will be asked to get off the ship and will never be hired again.

After arriving on the ship, Li Duoyu also began to join in the crew, hanging out with his second uncle, a heavy smoker.

If he didn't smoke, he would have to smoke his second-hand smoke. Li Duoyu simply made an exception and wanted everyone to die together.

These days, Li Duoyu and his second uncle have been fighting for eighty points, which is also called a tractor here.

When playing cards, you need to upgrade them. This kind of card is not suitable for gambling, but it will be more entertaining.

However, Li Duoyu found some fun in the past two days, which was watching Li Sande being tortured.

After nearly two years on the boat, Chen Liang, a rookie at the time, is now a veteran on the fishing boat.

Now he has a new task, which is to educate a new rookie crew member.

After the last attempt to smuggle in failed, all Li Sande could think about was smuggling, but he owed a huge debt and refused to make money to repay the debt.

The second uncle was so angry that he had no choice but to tie him onto the ship and make him a crew member to pay off his debts.

Nowadays, crew wages are quite high. Two years ago, they were only about five yuan a day. Now they have risen to eight yuan.

But Li Sande, who rarely endured hardships, started crying and making a fuss as soon as he got on the boat, and threatened to settle a score with Chen Liang.

Chen Liang, who was a bit ruffian to begin with, heard this guy threatening him and kicked him out.

Then he threw a brush over and cursed: "Paradise, I wanted to help you at first, but now I don't want to help you anymore. I have to clean the deck by myself. If I can't finish it, I won't leave any dinner for you." , and you can only sleep on the deck at night.”

The second uncle kept shaking his head when he saw his children. He didn't educate them well and raised a bunch of bastards.

At first, Li Sande was making trouble and showing off his temper, but outside the boat was the deep blue sea, and there was no place for him to escape.

But when it comes to fighting, the crew here doesn't look strong, but they are all made of muscles and bones, and anyone who comes out can knock him down.

There is no way to escape.

Can't even beat him.

After being hungry for a few days, Li Sande became even more well-behaved than a dog. Li Sande smiled whenever anyone saw him and did whatever he was asked to do.

According to the words of the older generation, if you are not well-behaved, it is because you have not suffered enough. If you eat too much, people will naturally become well-behaved.

On almost the fourth day when the fishing boat went out to sea, the uncle and the third uncle used the sextant and the chart to determine their location.

At present, they have arrived at Zhoushan Overseas Fishing Ground. Once here, the crew moved the frozen minibalang fish out of the fish hold.

The Pacific softfish they want to catch is a typical "night owl". It almost always lurks on the seabed during the day, floats in the middle and upper layers at night, and rises to near the surface in the morning, evening and moonlit nights.

They like to hunt shrimps the most, but now that shrimps are so expensive, they are reluctant to use shrimps as bait.

The hooks used to catch squid are all specially made. There is not one hook, but many hooks, and these hooks have no barbs.

The main reason is that squid are very stupid. They can only run away in one direction and don't know how to reverse, so once they are hooked, it is almost impossible to escape.

The most important thing is that using this kind of hook can ensure that what you catch is the target fish in all likelihood.

In addition to these, Li Duoyu also tied a small fluorescent stick to the fishhook with a rubber band.

This thing was just for children to play with at first, but later the fishermen discovered that this thing is simply a fishing artifact.

Li Duoyu went to customize a batch specifically for fishing this kind of squid. On the fishing boat, everyone was also very interested in these small light-emitting fluorescent sticks, and some even wanted to take a few back to play with their children at home.

Li Duoyu said: "You can play with it, but don't let children put it in their mouths and bite it. It will be poisoned."

It’s almost evening, and everyone has started to set out the hooks. The method of trolling for squid is relatively simple.

The fishing boat lowered a total of three rows of hooks nearly five kilometers long. After almost three hours, it just started to take up the line.

It takes more than an hour to reel in the line, plus handling the squid and re-hanging the bait, so you can do about two rounds in one night.

Since this ship was originally a trawler, the modification was relatively simple. It only used a few net hoisting machines, and many of them required manual processing.

Maybe at this time, few people use this kind of fluorescent stick to catch squid, and the effect is very good, when they start to reel in the line.

Several large squids were hung on each hook, and each squid was very big. Seeing this, the crew was very excited.

If the boat's profit is good, then they will make more. Seeing the rows of hooks all because of it, rookie crew member Li Sande also became excited.

After not listening to the command, he grabbed a big squid on the spot, his face full of surprise and excitement, but the next second, a jet of black boiled water was sprayed directly in his face.

"Fuck."

He was so frightened that he immediately put the squid in his hand back into the sea, and said in horror: "It's finished, it's finished, I can't open my eyes, I'm going to be blind."

Chen Liang, who was responsible for leading him, scolded him on the spot: "You pig, you don't understand that a squid can spray ink. Don't face its mouth. The one that ran away just now can be sold for at least fifty cents. I'll buy it from you later." Salary deduction.”

After saying that, he directly took a bucket of seawater, poured it on his face, and cursed: "Hurry up and get on with the work."

Li Duoyu also helped catch some squid, and then he caught several good-looking ones.

He went to the kitchen on the ship. In fact, he didn't come out to relax this time. He also brought some equipment.

I plan to make grilled shredded squid directly on the boat. (End of chapter)
