space fisherman

Chapter 209
The real shock begins when the catch is on the deck.

There are not many fish caught in this net, only more than 100, but the smallest of these fish is 60-70cm, but most of them are about 1.5m.

"Boss, are these dragon groupers?"

Yu Hongbo couldn't believe it, he really didn't dare to think about so many dragons.

Ye Yuan nodded: "That's right, it's the dragon grouper."

Dragon grouper is what fishermen call it. The real name of this fish is gentian grouper, saddle band grouper, spearhead grouper, etc. It is the largest fish among groupers.

Nutritious, tender meat, delicious taste, excellent taste, high economic consumption fish or for aquarium display.

The price of gentian grouper is about 60-80 yuan per catty, and it can grow up to about 2.7 meters long and 440 kilograms in weight.

It usually lives in caves or crevices along coral reefs and feeds on several species of marine life such as small sharks and small turtles.

It is yellow when it is young, and there are three irregular black spots on its body. As the fish grows, white or yellow spots will appear in the black spots, and the adult fish has black spots on its fins.

The fish skin gelatin of gentian grouper plays an important role in enhancing the integrity of epithelial tissue growth and promoting the synthesis of collagen cells. It is known as the fish for beauty and skin care, especially suitable for pregnant women.

Because they prey on fish, shrimp, and crabs, they will also ingest the astaxanthin rich in shrimps and crabs at the same time, and become a food rich in astaxanthin for humans.

It is also a low-fat, high-protein high-quality edible fish, rich in protein, vitamin A, vitamin D, calcium, phosphorus, potassium, iron and other nutrients.

"Boss, can we get 100 million from this net?" Ma Hua asked from the side.

Ye Yuan looked at him with a smile, "What do you think?"

Ma Hua shook her head, "I don't know, but I think there should be?"

"Okay, don't ask if you shouldn't, work hard, the bonus will be indispensable to you"

Ye Yuan didn't want to continue, not because Ye Yuan didn't want to tell Ma Hua, but because he was afraid that speaking out would scare him.

According to Ye Yuan's calculation, most of them are 1.5 meters long grouper, and there are a few more than 2 meters.

Based on the minimum of 150 kilograms per fish, that is to say, the price of one fish is 2.4, so 100 fish is 240 million. This is Ye Yuan's most conservative calculation. If you really want to reach the shore, the price may not be that much.

"The largest ones are put into the live water tank"

Ye Yuan did not chat with Ma Hua, but shouted loudly.

Several crew members held the 2.1-meter large pontoon and put it into the living water tank on the ship.

Then put a few big dragon groupers that were still alive.

Ye Yuan felt relieved when he saw that several giant grouper had been safely put into the living water tank. He didn't plan to sell these grouper as edible fish.

Instead, I plan to take it to the ornamental fish base to see if I can sell it to some aquariums, so as to maximize the benefits.

Seeing the crew members working hard to sort the catches on the deck, Ye Yuan didn't go to help, but went back to his hammock to rest alone.

The sorting of the fish was completed soon, because the sky was getting dark, and the fishing boats did not carry out any more fishing operations.

For the next three days, Ye Yuan would direct the net tow once a day, and the rest of the time was due to Hongbo leading the crew to work.

Although it is once a day, there are quite a lot of seafood that can be caught. Every time Ye Yuan nets, there are either precious seafood or a large number of economic fish.

This made the crew on the ship very happy. Following this rhythm, when they returned to Yuwan Island, they believed that the bonus for this trip would definitely satisfy them.

"Are you still fishing today?"

Yu Hongbo asked Ye Yuan, they just harvested a large number of sturgeon.

Ye Yuan shook his head:

"No, let's take a rest and fish again. There are not many sturgeon resources in this area. Even if you fish, you have to change places. Old Yu remembers a word, that is to be lenient."

Looking at the disappointing expressions of the crew members, Ye Yuan could understand, but this didn't change his mind.

"Don't make such an expression, find a place with shallow water and give you a chance to go into the sea."

When the crew heard that they could dive, they cheered up one by one. You must know that as long as you can dive, you will have some extra income more or less.

The reason why Ye Yuan said that is because he found a large group of stonefish not far from the fishing boat.
When Ye Yuan took the robot crew before, he also caught this kind of fish in the territorial waters of Huaguo, but the quantity last time was much less than this time.

Soon the fishing boats came to the waters where the stonefish were, and the crew began to put on diving gear.

Yu Hongbo lowered the gangway, which was more convenient for the crew to get on and off the boat, while Ding Yi temporarily stopped the fishing boat.

Ye Yuan was a little afraid that these crew members would be stung by the venomous stinger on the stonefish, so he frightened the crew to the bottom of the sea together.

The crew members who went down to the bottom of the sea were not attracted by the scenery here. Although the scenery here is not there, for these crew members who often dive into the sea, catching seafood is more important.

The crew spread out and explored in different directions around them. Ye Yuan saw that the person swimming in the direction of the stone fish was none other than Ma Hua, the one who worried Ye Yuan the most among all the crew members.

Ye Yuan thought to himself, it's a good thing he got down, otherwise something might happen to Ma Hua.

If it was someone else Ye Yuan wouldn't think so, but if it was Ma Hua who found the stonefish, this guy would probably be stabbed by poisonous stingers.

Ye Yuan didn't remind Ma Hua, but just followed from a distance, wanting to see Ma Hua's performance after seeing the stonefish.

Ma Hua didn't notice Ye Yuan in the distance, and swam straight ahead of her. When passing by a coral under the sea, she found a sea crab weighing half a catty hiding in the crevice of the stone.

When Ma Hua saw it, she reached out with one hand, trying to catch the sea crab in the crevice of the stone.

Who knows that this sea crab is not a bully. Seeing Ma Hua's outstretched hand, not only did it not run away, but it raised its big claw and pinched Ma Hua's fingers.

Scared by the sea crab's reaction, Ma Hua hastily withdrew her outstretched hand.

Looking at the sea crab with its teeth and claws open, Ma Hua could only obediently put an extended tweezers on her waist.

These tweezers for the crew were specially bought by Ye Yuan from a certain treasure.

Their shape is very similar to the scissors that are common in our homes, but the length is much longer than normal scissors.

The top, which was supposed to be sharp, was made into a sawtooth shape, which is more conducive to the crew on the bottom of the sea to catch such seafood as sea crabs and sea urchins, which are not easy to catch directly by hand.

Using the tweezers in his hand, Ma Hua easily put the flamboyant sea crab into the net bag.

After the sea crab was put into the net bag, this guy even tapped the shell of the sea crab with tweezers, Ye Yuan couldn't laugh or cry.
