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 doing.

In this wild growth year, he has established a good relationship with the organization, and 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.

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 written.

But he understands one thing, that is, he was fortunate to visit the production base of Putian shoes in his previous life.

There, the industrial chain is so complete that it is shocking. The production links of a new shoe, from design, procurement to final sales, are linked together in every step.

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

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

As the breeding becomes more stable, Li Duoyu is now more focused on adding value to the products, in other words, all-round processing.

In the future, 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 an 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 raised 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 very energetic.

To outsiders, although the eels all look the same and it is difficult to see 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 or not, in addition to looking at the body, the most important thing is to look at the fins.

If the fins are bright and beautiful, it is like the body is in good condition, and this kind of eel is relatively healthy and easy to raise.

"Yes, it is very well raised."

Li Duoyu gave Lin Youming a high evaluation. This person is not without problems, but he took the wrong path at the beginning.

"Thank you for the affirmation of Mr. Li."

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

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

Fortunately, I withdrew quickly, so I didn't suffer. If I follow Li Duoyu, I will find that eel breeding is not as difficult as I imagined.

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

But even after the disease, 놛 still finds it difficult to handle it alone, and always asks General Manager Li to come to help.

Sometimes, Lin Youming will also reflect on whether he is really too bad. General Manager Li is so busy every day at such a young age. How can 놛 have such comprehensive knowledge?

And every time he sees 누놛, he feels that 놛 seems to be more powerful, while he is still in the stage of eel breeding.

General Manager Li is already raising shrimps, making feed, and even producing canned seafood.

"Alas!"

But 놛 is too lazy to think about things that he can't figure out. Instead, 녊놛 just recognizes one thing, that is, to raise the 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.

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

The Zhao brothers, who are good at catching blue crab seedlings, really caught the opportunity this time and set up a temporary 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 unstoppable.

Li Duoyu is not sure how much money the two brothers have made in total now, 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 an iron-hulled fishing boat like our Li family.

Speaking of which, the changes in Dandan Island in 2017 are real. Now at the old pier, if the fishing boat returns to the port late, there is no place to stop. They can only drive to the new pier and then walk back.

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

One belongs to the Zhao brothers, one belongs to Lao Lu, and the oldest one belongs to our Li family.

After the end of the annual Pudu, Uncle Xiao and Uncle San were ready to "separate the family" and they no longer worked on the same boat.

After all, they were both boat owners. It was okay to get along at the beginning, but after being together for a long time, even husband and wife would be unhappy with each other.

Not to mention that they are brothers. Li Duoyu also heard that Uncle Xiao and Uncle San had quarreled several times on the boat.

They almost fought, but fortunately they were stopped by Uncle Xiao and Uncle Xiao.

At the Changwei Shipyard, they have been processing and producing the first boat of our Li family day and night recently.

This new ship is more powerful than the previous one. 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. Pacific deep-sea squid is more suitable for grilled squid strips.

But these squids are all in the offshore fishing grounds, and the fishing boats have to go far away, so ordinary fishing boats will definitely not work.

The steel fishing boat that our Li family customized last time was only about 150,000 yuan, but the cost of this squid fishing boat is higher, going straight to the 50,000 yuan, and the hull is also doubled.

When Li Duoyu said that he wanted to build this boat, the whole Li family was very excited, especially the older generation.

They have an unspeakable obsession with boats, especially old fishermen like Uncle and Third Uncle. When Li Duoyu said that he wanted to build another boat.

The two agreed on the spot.

But building a ship is much slower than building a house. Even at the fastest, it will take years before the squid fishing boat can be handed over to them.

So at this stage, Uncle 1 and Uncle 3 are still fishing together. Although they are unhappy, they still work as usual.

During this period, we simply modified the original trawler and sailed to the deep sea outside Zhoushan fishing ground to carry out squid fishing.

This time we are going to catch Pacific fringe squid, a kind of squid with a body length of about 40 cm.

This is also the largest squid that can be caught in my country's coastal waters. The Pacific deep-sea squid is a giant red squid, which is mostly concentrated in the offshore areas of Argentina and Peru.

In the previous life, there were many squid fishing boats here. We went there to catch squid and stayed there for two years.

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

For some coastal residents who have been deceived into working on a black-hearted squid fishing boat, being on this kind of boat is much more terrifying than being deceived into "Bianbei".

Several men live on a four- or five-meter-long boat for two years, and they often sleep on a wooden board less than one meter wide.

No women can be seen, and they work all the time. Normal people will be driven crazy.

Li Duoyu remembers that it seems that since the 1990s, domestic squid fishing boats have successively gone to the offshore waters of Argentina and Peru to fish squid.

It was okay at the beginning, but I don’t know when it started, and all kinds of black-hearted fishery companies have been cheating fishermen.

After cheating fishermen, they started to cheat mainlanders. To be honest, if it weren’t for the famous Pacific Ocean robbery and murder case that happened later, the darkness of squid fishing boats would be made public.

It is estimated that the public will not pay attention to this terrifying gray area at all.

If the grilled squid shreds sell well, Li Duoyu will definitely buy a few more squid fishing boats, but he won't do the same as those black-hearted bosses.

Li Duoyu will give them full benefits. First of all, he will never provide entertainment for the crew.

There must be video recorders, TVs and the like, and all kinds of movies, so that young people can have a place to vent, so that they won't be too hot-blooded and think about fighting all day long.

The fishing grounds off the coast of Zhoushan are far away, and it takes about four days to sail there.

After Li Duoyu arranged the company's affairs, he sneaked on the boat and thought of it as a way to relax at sea.

But on the second day, he began to feel a little irritable. Unfortunately, there was really no entertainment on the boat of Uncle and Uncle San.

There was no Mahjong to be found, and the most entertainment was to play cards with the family. However, for the sake of excitement, many people would still gamble a little, but the bet was relatively small.

It was about one point, even if it was very unlucky, at most they would lose a few dollars a day, and it would be difficult to get back on board.

But it was gambling, and once discovered, they would be asked to get off the ship directly, and they would never record it again.

After arriving on the ship, Li Duoyu also began to go along with the crew and hang out with the second uncle, who was a smoker.

If he didn't smoke, he would have to smoke secondhand smoke, so Li Duoyu simply made an exception and died with his family.

These days, Li Duoyu and the second uncles and their friends started to have a fight, and in their place, fighting was also called a tractor.

When playing cards, they are upgraded. This kind of cards are not suitable for gambling, but they are more entertaining.

However, Li Duoyu has found a fun thing these two days, that is, watching Li Sande being abused.

After nearly two years of life on the ship, Chen Liang, the rookie back then, 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 failed smuggling, Li Sande's mind was still full of smuggling, but he owed a lot of debts again, and he saw that he was unwilling to make money to pay off the debts.

The second uncle was so angry that he had no choice but to tie him up on the boat and let him work as a crew member to pay off the debts.

The wages of crew members are quite high now. Two years ago, it was about five yuan a day, and now it has risen to eight yuan.

But Li Sande, who often suffers a lot, started crying and making a fuss as soon as he got on the boat, and threatened to settle accounts with Chen Liang.

Chen Liang, who was a bit of a gangster, kicked him when he heard the guy threatening him.

Then he threw a brush over and cursed: "Damn it, I wanted to help you, but now I don't want to help you. If you can't finish cleaning the deck by yourself, I won't leave you dinner, and you will have to sleep on the deck at night."

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

At first, Li Sande was making trouble and throwing tantrums, but outside the ship was the deep blue sea, and there was no place to escape.

But in terms of fighting, the crew here don't look strong, but they are all full of muscles and bones, and any one of them can knock them down.

There is no escape.

There is no way.

After being hungry for a few days, they are more obedient than dogs. Li Sande smiles at everyone and does whatever he asks them to do.

According to the words of the older generation, if they are not obedient, it is because they have not suffered enough. After eating more, people will naturally become obedient.

Almost on the fourth day of the fishing boat going out to sea, Uncle and Uncle San used the sextant and the sea chart to determine their location.

At present, they have arrived at Zhoushan Overseas Fishing Ground. When they arrived here, the crew moved the frozen mullet out of the fish tank.

The Pacific squid we caught is a typical "night owl". It almost always lurks on the seabed during the day, floats to the upper and middle layers at night, and rises to the surface on moonlit nights.

They like to prey on shrimps, but shrimps are so expensive now that we can't bear to use shrimps as bait.

The hooks for squid fishing are specially made. There is not one hook, but many hooks, and these hooks are barbless.

The main reason is that squids are stupid and can only run in one direction. They don't know how to reverse, so once they are hooked, they can hardly run away.

The most important thing is that using this kind of fish hook can ensure that the fish caught is most likely the target fish.

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

This thing was originally just for children to play with, but later fishermen found that it was simply a fishing artifact.

Li Duoyu ordered a batch of them specifically for fishing this kind of squid. On the fishing boat, the family was also very interested in this kind of glowing fluorescent stick, and some even wanted to take a few back for their children to play with.

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

It was almost evening, and the family had already started to put out the hooks. The method of trolling squid is relatively simple.

The fishing boat put down a total of three hooks nearly five kilometers long. After about three hours, it started to reel in the line.

It takes about one hour to reel in the line, plus the processing of squid and re-baiting. It can be done about two rounds in one night.

Since this boat was originally a trawler, the modification is relatively simple, just a few net lifting machines, and many things need to be handled manually.

But at this time, many people used this kind of fluorescent stick to catch squid, and the effect was so good. When they started to collect the line.

Several hooks were hung with squids, and each squid was very fresh. Seeing this, the crew was very excited.

If the boat has good profits, they will earn more. Seeing that the line hooks were full of squids, rookie crew member Li Sande also became excited.

Without listening to the command, he pulled up a squid on the spot, his face full of surprise and excitement, but the next second, a stream of black boiled water sprayed directly at his face.

"Fuck."

The frightened 놛 put the squid in his hand back into the sea and said in horror: "It's over, it's over, I can't open my eyes, I'm blind."

Chen Liang, who was in charge of 놛, scolded on the spot: "You pig, you don't know that the squid can spray ink, don't face its mouth, the one that just ran away is only 50 cents, and it will be deducted from your salary later."

After that, he directly poured a bucket of sea water on 놛's face, cursing: "Hurry up, get back to work."

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

Went to the kitchen on the boat. In fact, 놛 didn't come out to relax this time. 놛 also brought some equipment.

녈It's like making grilled squid shreds directly on the boat. (End of this chapter)
