Chapter 335: Shenjiamen Fishing Port
Chapter 335 Shenjiamen Fishing Port
The large net of jellyfish they caught filled more than seventy baskets before they were completely filled with jellyfish.
The decks of the three ships were all piled full. Because the jellyfish were quite heavy before they were dehydrated, even the fishing boats took a lot of water.
After handling the jellyfish, the young crew member was so tired that he collapsed directly on the deck, his eyes completely losing their light.
“Holy shit, my hands are going numb.”
“My waist hurts so much.”
The second uncle sneered and said: "This is a shame. If you are asked to go to a foreign squid fishing boat, it will be a horror."
Li Duoyu couldn't help being startled when he heard about the squid fishing boat. Although he had never been on that kind of boat, in later generations, there was a mentally disturbed lunatic in their village who seemed to have gone crazy on the squid fishing boat.
Fishermen who go out to sea.
On the one hand, whatever seafood you can get, you will eat whatever seafood you get that day.
There are quite a lot of jellyfish, but not every jellyfish has a jellyfish brain.
After working for a long time, Uncle Zhuang finally got a wooden basin of jellyfish brains.
After putting it in an iron pot and blanching it, it immediately shrank, and the jellyfish brain was only a quarter of its original size.
Lunch is a jellyfish feast.
Uncle Zhuang made a portion of jellyfish brain soup and stir-fried cabbage with jellyfish blood.
Perhaps because we were hungry and everything tasted delicious, everyone had several bowls of rice during this meal.
There was not even a drop of soup left in the soup pot.
After lunch.
The crew returned to the cabin to rest, while the ship's bosses drove the ship toward the nearest dock.
There is currently the largest fishing port in China in the Zhoushan Islands.
Shenjiamen Fishing Port.
This fishing port has a unique geographical advantage, with a natural shelter about ten miles long and half a mile wide.
It can accommodate a lot of fishing boats. Once there is a strong wind for fishing boats in Zhoushan, this fishing port will be full of fishing boats coming to take shelter from the wind.
The most exaggerated thing is that there is even a reception station for compatriots from overseas provinces here in this fishing port. If there are compatriots from overseas provinces fishing nearby, they can come directly to this fishing port in case of strong winds.
The fishing boats that fish in the Zhoushan fishery usually bring the seafood they catch to sell here.
Li Duoyu and his fleet drove for three hours and finally arrived at Shenjiamen Fishing Port.
As soon as you enter the port.
It was only then that I discovered that there were a lot of fishing boats nearby. There were blue and white fishing boats everywhere, and many of them had red triangular dragon flags on them.
The young crew members who had just woken up from sleep couldn’t help but sigh when they looked at the world of fishing boats in front of them: “They are all big boats.”
The third uncle and the uncle were also very envious when they looked at the big boats. Their boat was only more than 20 meters long, but many fishing boats in the fishing port were more than 30 meters long.
At this time.
A large steel boat blew its whistle and rushed in. The small fishing boats on the side got out of the way.
Li Shuguang couldn't help but cursed: "Damn it, the boat is so big."
Li Duoyu said seriously: "For us fishermen, the size of the boat is really great."
“There are so many fish. When will the steel fishing boat we ordered be delivered?”
“Almost, it will still be like this for half a year.”
“It will take so long.”
Li Duoyu smiled. This was because he had gone through the back door. The people at Changwei Shipyard knew that his fishing boat had been accelerated.
Otherwise, according to the current shipbuilding technology, it would take at least one or two years to get a large ship like this.
The front section of the fishing port is the most crowded, filled with fishing boats waiting to unload.
The pier is also filled with baskets of seafood, including all kinds of seafood.
Li Duoyu and the others even saw a fishing boat full of golden yellow croakers.
It’s just too far away. I don’t know if it’s a large yellow croaker or a small yellow croaker. If it’s a large yellow croaker, the boat owner will definitely get rich.
If you want to sell fish here, you must first find a space where fishing boats can dock.
Just when they were looking for an opening.
Several small sampans came to them immediately and shouted to them:
“Do you want to sell the jellyfish? The price is very good. If you sell it to me, you don’t have to wait in line for a seat.”
Li Duoyu and Sanshu ignored this group of fishmongers who were "attentive for nothing". After seeing fishing boats from other places, these people would often offer a better price.
After deceiving the fishing boat.
They began to find various reasons to lower prices, saying:
“Your seafood is not good.”
“It’s not new.”
In short, selling fish at the fishing port is just like in airports and train stations in later generations. Those who come to you on their own initiative, absolutely ignore them.
It is best to sell it to a fishmonger on the dock or to a regular aquatic product company. Although the price is a little lower, there will rarely be price reduction or underweighting.
Unfortunately, there are all fishing boats queuing up on the regular side. If they queue up too, they probably won’t be able to get their turn even after dark.
Except for the fishmongers.
There were also many fishing boats surrounding Li Duoyu’s fishing boat.
It is no exaggeration to say that at this moment, Li Duoyu's fishing boat is definitely the most beautiful boat in this pier.
Many fishermen passing by shouted and asked: "Where did you get this fishing boat?"
“How much does it cost?”
Li Duoyu kept talking: "My boat is organized, and I don't know how much it costs."
“That’s it, I thought you bought it yourself. Comrade, which unit do you belong to?”
“I belong to the Fisheries Bureau.”
“Hello, leader of the Fisheries Bureau.”
Li Shuguang on the side was smiling from ear to ear. He found that Li Duoyu was really the kind of person who deceived people without a blushing face or a heartbeat.
But for the fishing boat he drove, even if he was said to be the leader of the Fisheries Bureau, many people would really believe it.
At this moment, a fishing boat that had sold out the seafood just left, and Uncle San’s trawler just got in.
After seeing a fishing boat approaching.
The fishmonger on the pier immediately moved the boarding ladder over.
And before the boarding ladder comes closer.
Li Duoyu took the lead and asked directly in the local dialect of Zhoushan: "Hey, Nong, what is the price of jellyfish today?"
Li Duoyu knows very well that these fishmongers brought ladders here just to let you unload the goods, but before the price was negotiated, they moved the seafood to the dock.
That would be quite passive.
At that time, the fishmonger will 100% lower the price. If the negotiation cannot be reached, it will not be so easy to move the seafood back to the ship.
The fishmonger was stunned for a moment when he saw that the young man in front of him spoke the local dialect, and then took a closer look at Li Duoyu.
“You are very familiar with our local dialect.”
Li Duoyu smiled:
“I’m not very familiar with him, I just lived on the island for a while and often went to Mount Putuo to worship.”
“That’s okay, we are half from the island, and I am from Bin Gang Road. Where did I live before?”
Li Duoyu said casually:
“I am on the other side of the white sand.”
The fishmonger was stunned for a moment. In fact, Zhoushan is very big, and he didn't know where the white sand was for a while.
Chen Liang's eyes widened on the fishing boat. Doesn't Li Duoyu even need to draft a lie?
Fuck you, you spend most of your time bullying us on Dandan Island, okay? How could you come to Mount Putuo to worship here? "Since we are one of our own, I will pay according to our local price, which is five yuan per load for jellyfish heads and three yuan for jellyfish skins."
Hearing the price, the second uncle and the first uncle on the fishing boat beamed.
“Sure enough, we still have to get more fish to sell fish. If we go up to sell them, we will definitely not get the price.”
Third uncle Li Zhengfa also smiled, this kid's mouth is really powerful.
They are already very satisfied with the price. After all, jellyfish are really worthless.
What they didn’t expect was that Li Duoyu was not satisfied with the price.
“Brother, we are all from the same island. I have dealt with all the jellyfish on my boat. Besides, there are very few jellyfish in April. Can it be higher?”
"Brother, I know there are very few jellyfish in April. I have already increased the price for you. If it comes next month, I will only charge three yuan for a load of jellyfish heads."
“Well, let’s add another piece to each load.”
The fishmonger frowned and thought for a while: "You can't do this. Really, I have the highest price nearby."
“Thank you in advance, brother.”
Li Duoyu quickly handed over a cigarette, and then, before the fishmonger agreed, Li Duoyu helped move the boarding ladder.
Seeing that Li Duoyu had secured the boarding ladder, the fishmonger sighed helplessly.
After Li Duoyu sold out the jellyfish, he pointed to the fishing boat nearby and asked, "Brother, what's the price of blue-spotted mackerel now?"
“Sanmao.”
“What about those weighing more than five kilograms?”
“Four cents.”
Li Duoyu thought the price was okay and said directly: "Just right. I have a lot of mackerel on my boat. Do you want it?"
The corner of the fishmonger's mouth twitched.
Damn it, I met a human being today.
Just now I thought they wanted to go fishing for mackerel, so they raised the price. I didn’t expect they had it on the boat.
“I told you, the price is different every day. Next time I come, I may not charge such a high price.”
“I understand, brother, our quality is guaranteed, and every load is sufficient.”
At the end of the sale, jellyfish and mackerel were sold together, and a total of 62 tickets were sold.
After seeing the wad of money.
The second uncle smiled very happily: "Let me tell you, as long as you bring a lot of fish, something good will happen."
“This earns at least ten more Unity cards.”
After they finished selling the fish, there were many people selling water, vegetables, and daily necessities at the dock, who came directly to their boat to sell.
There was even a man-powered cart pulling diesel oil over and asking, "Boss, is there enough oil? Do you want some more?"
Li Duoyu discussed with Sanshu and the others, purchased some cabbage appropriately, and added some fresh water.
The young fisherman, looking at the bustling dock in front of him, wanted to go for a stroll.
Especially at the pier, there are many young girls with baskets coming to buy seafood.
This place is not very far from Shanghai, and there is even a ferry to get there. The girls are also relatively fashionable in their clothes, which makes the group of them drool.
“Those legs are beautiful.”
“It’s so smooth and beautiful.”
The second uncle could not help but complain: "You guys can't even marry women on our island, and you still want to marry someone here."
“Let me tell you the truth, there is no way a woman here can marry without a big boat.”
Chen Liang couldn't help but said: "I can't afford to marry, so I can just dream."
"That's all you have to offer. As for that kind of woman, I think if Duoyu wants to marry her, she can have three or four of her and go home and play mahjong together."
Li Duoyu’s forehead is full of black lines.
These days, my second uncle has really filled him with hatred. Now the young crew members are a little resentful when they see him.
However, they all seemed a little afraid of themselves. After all, he and Agui were not good birds in the past.
After the fleet was replenished, it left Shenjiamen Fishing Port and continued fishing with the next net.
If it is efficient.
The fleet can make another net in the afternoon.
Uncle Li Niantian took out some hand-drawn charts and marked out the reef areas in the sea he passed in the past two days.
For them, ship bosses, use a sextant and know how to draw nautical charts.
These two things are the confidence of the ship boss. Not all ship bosses can do it, but those who know these things can go further.
Sometimes, when you arrive in a new place, you can use the nautical chart in your hand to exchange some basic information about the sea area with the local fishermen.
After Li Duoyu learned from the experience last time, Li Duoyu can roughly distinguish jellyfish on the fish detector.
Next, most of the catch was mackerel, with an average of about two nets a day, and a stable daily income of 700 yuan.
After doing it for seven or eight days in a row.
Only then did the young crew members truly experience the life of offshore crew members, which is to work every day when they open their eyes.
I kept picking fish, mending the nets, and cleaning the deck. It was okay to encounter a mackerel, but if it was bottom drag, it would be a collapse.
There are dozens of kinds of seafood on the net, including sea fish, crabs, snails, everything, all packaged separately, and there are also many slippery oil eels and conger eels.
The thing that devastated them the most was fish washing, which required constantly fetching water from the sea to rinse the fish.
They felt bored when they got on the boat at first, but now after finishing their work every day, they just want to sleep.
This kind of intensity has long been accustomed to the old fishermen on the boat.
Although he is paid.
The daily salary is a fixed salary of five yuan, but if the ship owners have a good harvest and are in a good mood, they might also be given a share.
What Li Duoyu regrets is that it is obviously the season for large yellow croakers, but they have been fishing for seven or eight days in a row, but they did not catch a single large yellow croaker.
At Shenjiamen Fishing Port, one or two boats catch grunts every day.
And because the catch of large yellow croaker has been too small recently, it is said that the price will continue to rise this year. Yesterday’s market price has risen to one pound and eight cents.
I heard that the fishing boat made nearly 4,000 yuan that day.
Made everyone envious.
But Li Duoyu and the others are not bad, and the fishmonger who bought his mackerel before was also very happy.
For him, having a stable supply of goods means having a steady stream of income.
But these days, Li Duoyu felt something was wrong, and asked Li Shuguang: "Shuguang, have we encountered that ship at sea?"
Li Shuguang looked at the ship Li Duoyu pointed to and thought about it: "I seem to have some impression. We met them once at sea not long ago."
Li Shuguang asked: "Is there any problem?"
Li Duoyu shook his head: "No, I just feel a little strange. They seem to have been staring at us recently."
Li Shuguang smiled and said: "I'm just staring at your boat. That boat seems to be full of young people. They must like your boat."
Li Shuguang said this, and Li Duoyu also felt that it made sense.
The fishing boat caught his attention because it had no number.
And most of the people on board are young people.
Although there was fishing, the amount was really not much. What made Li Duoyu most curious was that as soon as the fishing boat docked, all the young people ran to the dock to play. It didn’t look like fishing. of.
I don’t know if he is too worried, but I always feel that there is something wrong with this fishing boat, and the people on the boat are looking at them from time to time.
