Because Jiang Hai also knew this kind of shrimp, Arctic sweet shrimp, but it was said to be a very good shrimp.
They are also sold in China. Authentic wild deep-sea shrimps, if sold in China, will cost at least tens of yuan per catty. You must know that the price of aquatic products in Bingcheng has always been low, although it is not as good as in the coastal areas. But speaking of the inland areas, their seafood here is notoriously cheap. Ordinary green shrimps cost more than 20 yuan a pound in Bingcheng, and they are still alive.
Frozen shrimps can be sold in Bingcheng for tens of yuan per pound, but it is not very common, especially since the shrimps are not that big.
But here, the shrimp was used directly as bait, and Jiang Hai had nothing to say except scolding them for being a prodigal.
Because Edward told him that there are many such shrimps here, but usually they live on the seabed at a depth of 150 meters, but only on a cloudy day, when it is going to rain, or when there is a storm. , the bottom of the sea lacks oxygen, and these shrimps will float up. When the time comes, take a net and circle the seaside twice, and you can easily harvest dozens of kilograms of these things. For fishermen, these shrimps and those under the seabed Shellfish are nothing more than bait.
In the United States and European countries, few people eat shellfish, sea cucumbers, sea urchins, etc.
Even if it is the best abalone among shellfish, they will not eat it if it is not particularly large or of average size.
For them, they don't understand what the word "wasting natural resources" means.
But as the saying goes, do as the Romans do, and since this Arctic sweet shrimp is not difficult to obtain, it doesn't matter to Jiang Hai that he uses it as fishing bait.
After the three of them had put on the bait, Robbins swung it hard first. Since Edward was not fishing from a boat, the rod he took out was not too long. The rod was about 2.7 meters long. The 100-meter reel, and Robbins threw it almost fifty meters. This distance was farther than the average fishing enthusiast. As Robbins tightened the line, it He looked at Edward and Jiang Hai with a smile. You can tell how good a person is at fishing by watching him throw the line.
Seeing Robbins's gaze, Edward chuckled. He swung the same pole and threw it nearly sixty meters. To the naked eye, it was farther than Robbins's. At this point, Robbins couldn't help but nod secretly. This old guy did have a few moments, and finally arrived at Jiang Hai. Although Robbins and Edward didn't have much expectations for Jiang Hai, who was fishing for the first time, they still looked at him. He, Jiang Hai looked at the fishing rod in front of him, held the rod with both hands, and swung it out hard. In an instant, the lead weight was like a meteor, flying straight towards the sea level, and the roller under his fishing rod also In constant rapid release.
It wasn't until it was about seventy meters away that the lead block fell into the sea. Seeing this scene, Edward and Robbins were dumbfounded. Originally, they knew that this boss had strange powers, but they didn't expect that this The strange power is really a little scary.
Feeling the surprised gazes of the two men, Jiang Hai chuckled. Although it was his first time fishing in the sea, it did not mean that he could not swing the pole. At least in terms of strength, he could not lose to any human being now. of.
"Boss is really energetic... But, boss, you've lost your mind." Taking a gentle breath, Edward stretched out his thumb towards Jiang Hai, but after praising him, he came from behind. Added another sentence.
"Fucked? What do you mean?" Jiang Hai was stunned for a moment after hearing what Edward said, and then asked him.
"It's your fishhook or lead pendant that's hanging on the rocks below. If you don't believe me, why don't you reel in the line now and see if you can pull it back?" Hearing Jiang Hai's words, Edward chuckled. Talked about it.
Hearing Edward's words, Jiang Hai tried it. Sure enough, after tightening the line, he couldn't pull it anymore. He pulled hard for a long time. As the force relaxed, when Jiang Hai pulled the fishing line back, I found that even the lead pendant and hook had disappeared.
"Uh, this..." Looking at the empty fishing line in front of him, Jiang Hai couldn't help but said awkwardly.
"It's okay, this is normal. I still have a lot of lead pendants here. They are not expensive. You can buy a hundred for ten dollars." Seeing Jiang Hai's embarrassed look, Edward said with a smile. , sea fishing, especially bottom fishing for beginners, is not so easy to learn. Things like hanging on the bottom are very common.
"Ahem..." After hearing Edward's words, Jiang Hai coughed dryly, walked to the bag next to him, took out a new fishhook and lead block, tied them to the fishing line, and then threw the fishing line out again. , this time he worked harder, and this time the fishing line flew directly into the sea eighty meters away. But in less than a minute, his expression changed again, because he couldn't pull it anymore...
"Damn, is this thing so difficult?" With the second, third, fourth, fifth... eleventh time, Jiang Hai was about to give up, and he felt that he Taking this lead weight and throwing it into the sea, he would kill more fish than he caught. Well, I'm sorry, he didn't catch any now.
"Ha, fishing is not that easy, little boss. When you throw it, you throw it very far, but when you throw it very far, you also put out too much line. There is too much line. When your hook sinks, After entering the water, it will sink quickly into the sea. When you want to reel in the line, the fishhook and lead weight will float over and get stuck on the nearby rocks." Looking at Jiang Hai's depressed expression, Ai Dehua chuckled lightly, and with a bend of his fishing rod, he quickly put away the line. Not long after, a cod fish almost half a meter long was lifted out of the water by him. Generally speaking, this kind of half-meter long cod fish A big fish naturally needs to slip away for a while. The power of fish under the water is not ordinary, but Edward is not an ordinary person either.
Looking at this big fish, he had no intention of slipping away. He directly used his arms to forcefully lift the fish from the water and threw it to the shore. Looking at the old man, it was almost bigger than his head. With his thick arms, it was easy to see how strong the old man was. When he saw this big fish, Robbins over there couldn't help but dazzle again.
"Good guy, this fish is enough for us to eat tonight." Robbins said with a smile on his face as he hurried over and put the fish into the water tank he had prepared early in the morning.
Very few fish can live for long after being out of the water, so it is difficult to see live fish inland.
The same is true for cod. Basically, the cod you see in the interior of the United States is the kind of frozen cod with the head cut off.
As for the difference from domestic cod, the main reason is that domestic cod is much smaller. The price of a live cod of this size is about thirty US dollars. It is not valuable, but it is a commodity that can be sold easily.
"Just have fun fishing. If you catch a small one, use it as bait. If you catch a big one, release it. I want to see how many kinds of fish there are now and what the resources on the water are like." Hearing what Robbins said , Edward also said with a chuckle.
He came here to fish, first of all for today's dinner, but mainly to see how the fish resources were here.
"The fish resources under the water are still very rich. I know this. There are about dozens of species of marine fish. There is also a coral reef with many big and small fish, as well as many crabs and lobsters." Lead pendant, Jiang Hai said to the two people in front of him.
"Oh? Are the fishery resources here so rich?" After hearing Jiang Hai's words, Edward here couldn't help but froze for a moment and said excitedly, while Robbins had some surprise on his face, because he didn't even Know what is under the sea.
"Oh, before I came here, I hired some frogmen to investigate here." Seeing the surprised look on Robbins' face, Jiang Hai couldn't help but cursed himself for talking too much, but he would show it later. There will be more magic.
He didn't want to have to be on tenterhooks every time. Learning how to explain was also a required course for him.
"That's right, that's really great." After seeing Jiang Hai's words, Edward couldn't wait and threw the fishhook into the sea again. He also wanted to see if he could catch a bigger fish.
As for Jiang Hai, he had already tied his fourteenth lead pendant and fishhook and threw them into the sea.
"Uncle Edward, you said that the fishery resources here are so developed. Although I am not planning to breed them for the time being, is it okay to just fish?" Looking at Edward next to him, Jiang Hai asked him.
"I don't know the specific amount yet, but if I go by what you said, the fishery resources here are estimated to be valuable. It is completely feasible to buy an offshore fish boat and fish nearby." What Jiang Hai said, Edward here nodded excitedly. If this is the case, then this place is really a treasure land.
"Because this is our own fishery and there is no breeding yet, the number and time of fishing should not be too frequent. Once a month is enough. Normally, I only need to drive the boat to patrol. On the day of fishing, Calling that boy Philemon over and adding the boss will be enough, so there is no need to hire anyone else." Because there are no plans to breed fish at the moment, there is no need to put in fry, and secondly, there is no need to put in bait, so it is very difficult. save trouble.
After following Edward's talk for a while, Jiang Hai roughly determined what his aquatic products currently needed.
An offshore fishing boat, even if it is brand new, only costs about 600,000 US dollars. This is already quite a big thing. What costs money for these things is not the boat, but the oil, because this Play should burn oil, but it will burn very badly.
In addition, you also need a few open-headed boats for patrolling. These things are much cheaper. The best one costs about 100,000. Buy a boat, buy a net, and buy one to reserve oil. The total amount of money is less than one million, which Jiang Hai can afford.
Thinking of this, Jiang Hai couldn't help but nodded secretly. He was really lucky to recruit Edward this time.
