MTL - The Fish I Catch Can Be Upgraded-Chapter 230 Partner of fishing and hunting
Chapter 230 Fishing and hunting partners
To catch these squid, Chu Mingcheng found a very convenient pattern.
When they swim, they jump and jump, and every time they jump a certain distance, there will be a short pause. If you want to catch them alive, you have to take advantage of this pause.
This is impossible for ordinary people, even for top swimmers.
But for Chu Ming City, which is hardly affected by water resistance, it is very simple.
The little sea lion is eating happily here, and he is crazily catching here.
Cause every time you swim, you will leave a trail of smoke behind you.
The smoke tail is actually the ink sprayed out by the squid in the net bag. At first glance, I thought Chu Mingcheng had brought the propeller himself.
After nearly 20 minutes, there were more than 20 pike squid in the net bag, each of which was about 40 centimeters in size. Obviously, he was staring at the big ones.
Unfortunately, the weight of calamari is relatively light. A 40cm piece is estimated to be between one and a half to two catties.
At this time, the little sea lion who had already eaten five pike squid was finally full.
It watched Chu Mingcheng hunt the squid curiously, and seemed to know that he was collecting the food, so it acted again.
It caught a long squid about 30 centimeters very nimbly, and sent it to Chu Mingcheng with its mouth.
‘This is for me? '
Chu Mingcheng was taken aback for a moment, then tried to take the squid from the little sea lion's mouth and put it into the net pocket.
After a short meeting, the little sea lion brought another one, and this one was smaller, less than 30 centimeters.
Seeing this, Chu Mingcheng didn't go to pick it up. Instead, he quickly grabbed a long squid over 40 centimeters in the puzzled eyes of the little sea lion, and waved it in front of it.
After putting the squid into the net bag, he gestured for the length with both hands, trying to make the little sea lion understand what he meant. He only wanted the big one.
He doesn’t know if the little sea lion can understand, anyway, he thinks this guy is quite smart, maybe he can understand?
As a result, the little sea lion let go of his mouth, allowing the little squid to sink slowly in the water, and then jumped out.
Chu Mingcheng caught the sinking squid with only one breath, and put it into the net pocket.
Although these small ones are not intended to be sold, they can be eaten by themselves.
After all, this calamari looks good, and you can feel that the taste will be very good at first glance.
Just after he caught a pike squid again, the little sea lion also came back to him. This time the pike squid in his mouth was not small, also about forty centimeters in size.
Chu Mingcheng took the pike squid with satisfaction, and stretched out his hand to rub the head of the little sea lion.
He was very satisfied with his performance this time, which also gave him the idea of training a sea lion as his hunting partner.
Before, he was reluctant to feed the precious fish because he and Jiang Luoluo just regarded the little sea lion as a wild animal accidentally rescued in life.
Now that it can help him hunt, and even lead him to find prey, its value will naturally increase rapidly in Chu Mingcheng's heart.
He decided to go back and discuss with Jiang Luoluo how to treat the little sea lion, and treat it better in the future.
Another ten minutes passed, and with the help of the little sea lion, Chu Mingcheng's net pocket was full.
Although the squid is a bit bigger than the spiny mantis shrimp he catches, but as a mollusk, it really doesn't take up much space.
It is estimated that there are more than 50 nets in a full net bag, and it may reach 60. The weight is conservatively estimated, and it should be about 100 catties.
Without greeting the little sea lion, Chu Mingcheng came out of the water to observe his position.
The squid group would definitely run away after being attacked, and he and the little sea lion left the island far away without knowing it.
Fortunately, the fishing boat has lights. Even if the distance is about two kilometers, it is still very conspicuous on the sea at night.
Chu Mingcheng found the right direction and immediately swam back.
Seeing him going back, the little sea lion followed him without calling.
Chu Mingcheng did not explode at full speed, so it took about ten minutes to get back to the boat.
He didn't call out Jiang Luoluo this time, but got on the boat by himself, and lifted up the net bag, which was only something he could lift.
However, Jiang Luoluo, who noticed the movement on the deck, came out of the cockpit, saw the round net bag, and asked curiously: "What did you catch this time?"
"The little sea lion led me to meet a group of squid, and it was able to drive the group of squid towards me, allowing me to catch them easily."
"And it even gave me the calamari it caught with its own hands. There are quite a few squid in this net bag that it caught."
"This guy is very capable. He not only knows how to find prey, but is also willing to share and help hunt."
The little sea lion also jumped into the boat, Chu Mingcheng rubbed its head and praised it, giving it all the credit.
But most of the credit does go to him, namely the way he catches the calamari, which he changed slightly.
"The little guy is so smart?" Jiang Luoluo looked at the little sea lion in surprise after hearing this.
She heard that some fishermen raise ospreys to help catch fish, but that is a skill.
When the osprey goes out to sea to hunt, they will first tie the neck of the osprey.
In this way, the fish eaten by the osprey can only be stored in the neck and will not be digested in the stomach. Fishermen can easily take out the fish.
But the osprey was forced, but the little sea lion took the initiative.
And the hunting ability of the little sea lion is not comparable to that of the osprey. If he really becomes Chu Mingcheng's hunting partner, it will help him more than a dozen ospreys.
"It's really smart. I think it can be properly raised when it's hungry in the future to enhance its relationship. Except for some particularly precious fish, let it eat ordinary fish if it wants to eat!"
"Okay, since it can help you, it should be treated better."
This time, Jiang Luoluo was not as reluctant as before.
Then the two began to classify the squid, mainly picking out the ones that were still alive and putting them into the live fish cabin.
The live fish compartment on the boat has been empty, and now there is finally something to put.
Chu Mingcheng also took the opportunity to weigh the squid, and found that a net full of squid weighed 103 catties, a total of 57.
The price of this kind of squid is not bad. The fresh one is 81 catties, and there are very few live ones on the market. These squid are all caught with nets, and they will almost die as soon as they are caught.
If you can really bring some work back, the price is estimated to be around 120.
But you must have a lot of vitality in your life, otherwise others don't want to be taken advantage of.
He personally caught more than 40 long pike squid, but after being stuffed in the net bag for a while, more than 20 of them were close to cold and could only be kept fresh.
He looked at more than a dozen squids with good vitality in the living water tank, and wondered if they could maintain their current vitality tomorrow.
After sorting the squids, Chu Mingcheng set off again, taking the little sea lions to catch the squids.
Aunt Xia is right there, unable to escape.
But the calamari will not be encountered after tonight, so of course he should catch more when he encounters it. This time he also brought the net bag that Jiang Luoluo had bought and hadn't used much.
It's a pity that the calamari is getting farther and farther away from the island. When both net pockets are full, he has no way to come back a third time.
One is that the time is already very late, and the other is too far away, which is inconvenient.
The cuttlefish harvested tonight exceeded 300 catties, worth at least 20,000.
It was eleven o'clock at night. After returning to the boat, Chu Mingcheng asked Jiang Luoluo to continue sorting the squid, while he took a towel to dry off the moisture on the little sea lion, and let him rest in the cockpit.
The second time I hunted the calamari at night, thanks to it, otherwise Chu Mingcheng would not have been able to find the calamari at all.
and Jiang Luoluo sorted all the calamari, but unfortunately, there were only more than 20 live ones in the two net pockets, which did not exceed 50 when combined with the previous ones.
But Chu Mingcheng didn't care about this, he went to take a shower immediately after he finished his work, and then continued to discuss billions of business with Jiang Luoluo.
The two of them are at the time when they feel the most fresh, and the symphony every night is definitely indispensable.
First we talked about billions of dollars in business. Both of them were a little hungry, so they just took out the marinated Fugui shrimp to taste.
Not to mention the taste of raw marinated Fugui shrimp, I still want to eat it, even if my stomach can’t fill it, my mouth still won’t be satisfied.
So Chu Mingcheng had no choice but to find another way to satisfy himself, and Jiang Luoluo could only work hard.
The next day, he woke up at early six in the morning.
Feeling that Jiang Luoluo's hands and feet were wrapped around her body, and her body was slippery and soft without reservation, Chu Mingcheng was furious.
Just looking at the tiredness on her face and the high number of times last night, he could only resist the urge to prevent Jiang Luoluo from being unable to complete the diving training today.
But he couldn't bear to continue lying down, so he carefully pulled her hands and feet off him, and got up first.
Chu Mingcheng didn't feel tired at all, mainly because he had been using life transformation a few days ago to supplement his energy.
Otherwise, if he has been unrestrained and absurd these two days, even his current physical fitness may be a little weak.
Jiang Luoluo seemed really tired, and Chu Mingcheng's movements didn't affect her sleep at all.
He walked out of the room and closed the door. As soon as I turned around, I found the raised head of the little sea lion, obviously awake.
It wailed twice, as if saying hello.
"Shh~" Chu Mingcheng put his index finger on his lips quickly, signaling it not to make noise.
The little sea lion didn't know what he meant, but fortunately, he didn't bark anymore.
Chu Mingcheng opened the door of the cockpit first, let it go to the outside deck, and then took out a seven or eight catty pepper snapper and three chilled calamari to feed it.
There was something to eat, and the little sea lion immediately started to eat the fish. It seemed that it liked fish more than calamari.
He fed more than a thousand for one breakfast, but Chu Mingcheng didn't feel distressed.
Because the calamari caught by this cargo alone reached five or six thousand last night, which is what it deserves.
Chu Mingcheng returned to the cockpit, made himself a breakfast after washing up, and then went to the deck to take off the diving suit that had been cleaned and dried last night, and put it on again.
In the morning, he planned to clean the Mantis Shrimp with Spiky Processes first. In the afternoon, he went to see the coral reef on the other side of the island, and in the evening he returned to the pier.
After changing into the diving suit, Chu Mingcheng opened the living water tank to take a look, and found a few calamari inside which had already floated up, only moving occasionally.
So I had to use it to copy the net, fish out these already cold calamari, and take it fresh.
Then checked the lobster, moray eel and rich shrimp in the live fish tank.
The first two were fine, there was no problem, but unfortunately five of the Fugui shrimps died, so he could only take them out fresh.
These dead ones can still be sold, but the price will drop a lot, which is a pity.
