Chapter 354 The boat capsized? !
The appearance of the swordfish made everyone hide to the side. If they were stung by it, it would be no joke.
The rain of pear blossom needles and Rong Mama's acupuncture are all inferior to the cold weapons of this swordfish!
Boss Fu originally wanted to let a few young men pick out the fish on the deck while he drove the boat to the dock.
As a result, before I even took a step towards the cockpit, these swordfish stopped me in my tracks.
Think about the last time that swordfish drilled a big hole in the deck. Not only did it cost money to repair the boat, but the most important thing was that it caused us to rest for a long time before we could go out to sea.
So at this moment, he could no longer let these swordfish run wild, so he grabbed the hatchet beside him and started to work on them.
The swordfish this time were not even half the size of the last one. Although there were three of them, they were all dying.
Although Fu Wan and the other two were hiding aside, they were not idle. They picked up tools such as harpoons from the side of the boat and trapped the swordfish.
This gave Boss Fu an opportunity to show his skill. He raised his knife and chopped off the long arrows of the three swordfish with three strokes. Then he changed to the knife on the ground and bled the swordfish one by one. After that, he asked Fu Liang and Fu Ming to move the swordfish into the cold storage.
These three swordfish were less than half a meter long after removing their weapons. Fu Wan guessed that they must have been chased by killer whales and accidentally bumped into her trawl net.
However, because the trawling took a long time and the boat was moving in a hurry, the swordfish was half dead and would not survive even if it was released back into the sea.
Otherwise, such a small swordfish might be thrown back into the sea to grow longer.
Small swordfish can also be sold, but the price is not as good as swordfish weighing over 100 kilograms. After Fu Ming and Fu Liang moved the three swordfish into the cold storage, they did not forget to cool them down with ice cubes, for fear that they would not be fresh later.
"Okay, now that we've dealt with the swordfish, I'll leave the rest to you. I'll take the boat!"
After Boss Fu finished his instructions, he walked towards the cockpit.
Fu Wan had no objection to this arrangement. Ever since Boss Fu returned from recovery, he had been experiencing a dull pain in his waist from time to time.
To sort out fish, one needs to sit on a bench and work with a bent back, and it can take several hours.
It's okay if this intensity happens occasionally, but if it continues for a long time, I'm afraid Boss Fu will have to go to the hospital again.
"Hey, this money spot is quite beautiful."
Fu Ming muttered to himself that there were indeed quite a few money spots in this net, and there were also some big ones.
It’s just a pity that the biggest and fattest fish had a big black hole on its body, which was obviously the work of a swordfish.
The golden grouper, also known as the hawksbill grouper, is a type of grouper. This fish mainly inhabits coral reefs. Like other groupers, its body is oval, laterally flattened and stout.
This fish has a white or other light-colored head and body, but is covered in circular or hexagonal spots that are densely distributed, giving it the appearance of carrying a small fishing net. (Image of a hawksbill grouper net.) The price of the light brown grouper is quite high, as its flesh is white, tender, and incredibly delicious. The grouper is considered a premium grouper, though not as good as the eastern star grouper or the rat grouper, but it is still very popular.
This kind of top-quality fish generally does not require any particularly complicated processing. It can be directly washed and steamed or made into sashimi, and it tastes particularly good.
However, this type of grouper is generally not big in size. Fu Wan thought there were quite a lot of them at first glance, but in fact, even if she picked out all the golden grouper and put them into the fish baskets, it would only fill two baskets.
The total weight should be more than 200 kilograms.
And most of them weigh less than one pound, and the one pierced by the swordfish is the largest.
The one with such a big injury definitely couldn't be sold, so Fu Wan threw it into a bucket on the side and planned to steam it and eat it at home.
"Okay, I'll pick out the other small fish, and you guys pick out the shrimps."
Fu Liang put the fish on the ground into the fish basket while giving instructions to Fu Ming and Fu Wan.
Fu Ming nodded in agreement and threw the shrimps on the ground into the basket.
The shrimps caught in the net this time are all quite large, and the tail of each one is basically as thick as two fingers.
There are even a few king shrimps, whose tails are as thick as three fingers and each weighs half a pound.
"Awan, look, there's so much shrimp paste!"
Fu Ming suddenly showed Fu Wan the belly of the shrimp in his hand as if he had discovered a new world.
"Oh, it's true!"
“These shrimps are so juicy!”
"Exploding grease" is a term used in coastal areas to describe seafood with a lot of grease. In fact, grease refers to fat. Whether it is shrimp, crab, or even squid, there is a possibility of exploding grease.
The shrimps with roe are particularly delicious, especially when blanched or cooked with pepper and salt. The shrimp roe is very sweet and rich. If the heat is well controlled, it can even be runny. Many people, whether local fishermen or diners, like this.
Because so many people love to eat it, the price of shrimps with roe is much higher than that of ordinary shrimps. Whether a shrimp has roe or not depends mainly on its abdomen.
The abdomen of a shrimp with roe is usually covered with one to three white lines, and the orange roe can be clearly seen on the belly. This is the shrimp in the roe state. The picture of the shrimp with roe is online, who is drooling? "It's a pity we are in a hurry to go back, otherwise we could boil some water and cook two of them now."
Fu Wan sighed, there are freshwater coal steel pots on the ship, and this kind of shrimp does not need any seasoning, you can eat it directly after it is cooked.
"It's okay, these shrimps are still alive and kicking. I put some sea water in the bucket, which will keep them alive for a while."
Fu Ming muttered to himself, he also wanted this.
Now you can’t put the shrimps directly into the fish basket, because not all of them are roe-filled, so you have to pick them out.
In addition to shrimps and groupers, the most common creatures in the trawl were still crabs, but they were all orchid crabs and swimming crabs. After Fu Liang picked out the larger fish, he dragged the fish basket all over the deck to catch crabs.
There are also quite a few silver pomfret and red knifefish in the trawl this time. A lot of silver pomfret's scales have fallen off because of the trawl, so the price is expected to go up a bit.
The red knife fish were intact, but there were not many of them, so they only filled a basket.
"Awan, that boat really capsized!"
Fu Boss's shocked shout came from the front. Fu Wanzheng and Fu Liang were cleaning up the deck. When they heard this, they dropped their shovels and looked towards where Fu Boss pointed.
The ship they had seen before was capsized next to a large reef. Fu Wan could even see several large holes on the hull, probably the result of a swordfish attack.
And it was definitely not the small swordfish in the trawl net. Judging from the size of the hole, it must be at least two or three hundred kilograms, no smaller than the swordfish that pierced through the deck of his own house.
"My goodness, what's wrong with this ship? Where are the people inside?"
"Dad, should we go over and rescue them?"
Fu Ming and Fu Liang also dropped their work and came to watch the fun. They didn't know what had happened between Boss Fu and Fu Wan and the ship before.
"Rescue?"
"Help me!"
"Tsk tsk, maybe Mazu couldn't stand it anymore and threw these islanders into the sea to feed the sharks."
Boss Fu drove the boat around the ship. Not only on the boat, but also in the sea, there was no one in sight. He didn't know whether the person had really been fed to the fish or rescued by a fishing boat operating nearby.
"What? Why are they from Japan again?!"
Fu Ming exclaimed, and then he immediately thought of the shipwreck treasure that Fu Wan had found before, and the jade seal hidden on the ship.
"Dad, those Japanese people might be here just for those things!"
