This pollutant is not only found in marine animals, but also in animals on land.
Although the top predators on land do not have as much of these pollutants in their bodies as the top predators in the ocean, they should still be eaten less.
Perhaps this is the limitation that the Creator has placed on the animals at the top of the food chain. They are born invincible and can prey on countless creatures at the bottom of the food chain at will. However, they will eventually be retaliated by the creatures at the bottom of the food chain and die from illness.
Of course, none of this has anything to do with Xiang Yang, because Xiang Yang had no intention of eating this swordfish from the beginning.
Xiang Yang asked Fu Gui to get a fishing net from the boat.
Fu Gui was very obedient and immediately ran to the boat and took out a small fishing net from the cabin.
This fishing net is not a spare fishing net on the fishing boat, nor is it a fishing net directly removed from the winch of the fishing boat. It is a small fishing net used on ordinary small boats that requires manpower to cast the net. Xiang Yang took into consideration that sometimes fishing boats will stop to rest at sea and use it for entertainment for the crew in some sea areas without signals.
Xiang Yang had made it clear to the crew members that any crew member who caught fish with this fishing net would have all the catches belong to the fisherman himself, but the prerequisite was that the net could not be used during working hours.
If this fishing net were fully spread out, it would be enough to cover the entire swordfish. However, the net line is not very thick, and it is not difficult for the swordfish to break through the net with the huge force generated when swimming in the ocean.
But this is on the shore. Once the swordfish is out of water, it is very good if it can have one point of its strength left.
Xiang Yang took the fishing net and quickly walked to the swordfish.
Zhang Qicheng and the others stared with their eyes wide open, thinking, is Xiang Yang crazy? Is he going to use a fishing net to catch the swordfish? Putting aside the question of whether the fishing net can catch the swordfish, the swordfish is not a fish that can be bullied. It would be strange if it didn't fight back like crazy.
Sure enough, when the swordfish found Xiang Yang approaching, it immediately wanted to turn its head and use the needle on its upper jaw to stab Xiang Yang.
But this is a beach, how could Xiang Yang be stabbed so easily by a swordfish
Xiang Yang first placed one end of the fishing net on the tail of the swordfish, then held the rope on the fishing net, walked in front of the swordfish, and dragged the fishing net covering the swordfish towards the swordfish's head.
He Mingde hurried forward, grabbed a corner of the fishing net from the tail of the swordfish and pulled it backwards. The two of them pulled up the fishing net like pulling a quilt.
Zhang Qicheng wanted to help, but he didn't know how. After seeing what He Mingde was doing, he quickly ran to another location to help Xiang Yang and the others fix the fishing net.
Finally, Xiang Yang pulled one end of the fishing net and covered the entire swordfish with the fishing net.
"It's done." Zhang Qicheng was delighted, but then he showed a puzzled expression on his face. Such a big swordfish must weigh at least 500 kilograms. Even if he caught it with a fishing net, how could he bring it back? Its nearly six-meter-long body, even if he brought it back, where should he keep it
Xiang Yang said at this time: "There is a pond in the village. In the past, fishermen used it to raise fish when they caught precious catches. Later, every household had a water tank, and it was easy to cause disputes if they raised rare catches in the pond, so it was abandoned. Now we can call a few villagers to carry this swordfish to the pond and raise it."
Zhang Qicheng's eyes lit up, "That couldn't be better."
He Mingde said: "I will call the crew now."
Xiang Yang shook his head. If they waited until the crew arrived, the food would be cold. He ordered Fu Gui to find the nearest villagers for help.
It was not known whether Xiang Yang was lucky or Fu Gui was clever, but in less than a minute, Xiang Yang saw Fu Gui and five or six fishermen running towards this place in a hurry.
"Oh my God? Is it really such a big swordfish? Xiaoyang? How did you catch it?" One of the fishermen with a buzz cut and a hideous scar on his forehead asked in surprise.
The fisherman's surname is Yu, and his given name is Xiang. Although he has a hideous scar on his head and looks like an unkind person, he is actually a very enthusiastic man. He is not much older than Xiang Yang, but his generation is older than Xiang's father and his family.
I heard that the scar on his forehead was caused by him rolling off a reef when he was catching crabs at the beach as a child. Is he lucky? He managed to survive after rolling off a several-meter-high rugged rock. I heard that there was blood all over the ground. Other fishermen in the village found him and carried him back.
From then on he was very enthusiastic about everyone in the village.
"It's Grandpa Yu." Xiang Yang said with a smile, "This fish wanted to eat me in the sea, so it chased me all the way to the shore? It took a lot of effort for me to catch it."
Yu Xiang didn't think being chased by a swordfish in the sea was dangerous. He only had deep envy in his eyes, "Is this fish really a bargain? Such a big swordfish, and it's still alive? It should be worth at least 50,000 yuan, right?"
Xiang Yang nodded in agreement.
"Come on, let's carry it into the pool first." Yu Xiang grabbed the protruding upper jaw of the swordfish and spoke.
The remaining fishermen immediately lent a hand.
A group of people lifted the fish's body and grabbed its jaw, and soon they carried the swordfish into a pool.
It is called a pool, but in fact it is just a puddle dug on the beach. The end of the puddle that connects to the sea is fixed with a metal fence to ensure that the fish in the puddle cannot escape into the sea.
A few people threw the swordfish into the puddle. Yu Xiang smiled cheerfully, "Xiao Yang, we'll go back first."
"Wait." Xiang Yang stopped Yu Xiang and asked, "Uncle Yu, have you had dinner?"
When asking other villagers for help, Xiang Yang would usually give them corresponding compensation. Xiang Yang did not like asking others to help him for free, and he did not like to owe others favors.
But Yu Xiang's words were different. This man was very stubborn. When the villagers asked him to do some small favors within his ability, he never accepted any compensation. But if someone invited him to dinner or drinks, he would usually agree readily.
As for the fishermen following Yu Xiang, they are a small group headed by Yu Xiang. Although they are fishermen, they seldom go out to sea to fish. They usually catch oysters, crabs and the like, and then gather together to deliver them to the barbecue stalls outside twice a week. They have a lot of people, so the people outside will not bully them when they see them.
Xiang Yang thought Yu Xiang would agree, and then readily follow him home for dinner.
The result surprised Xiang Yang. Yu Xiang waved her hand and said excitedly, "Forget about the meal. We have to go to Brother Zuo's house."
The Brother Zuo that Yu Xiang mentioned is naturally the Village Chief Zuo. In fact, strictly speaking, the Village Chief Zuo should call Yu Xiang Uncle Yu, but people of their generation liked to make friends with each other, so Yu Xiang called the Village Chief Zuo Brother Zuo. But by Xiang Yang's generation, the elders began to pay attention to seniority again, so Xiang Yang and Fatty Zuo all called him Uncle Yu.
