Chapter 148 Hairtail
After all, fishing boats often float on the sea for a long time, and many recreational activities cannot be done. Fishing has become a pastime for many crew members.

Soon Ye Yuan saw that the fish that Wang Husheng dropped was a hairtail about 2 meters long.

Hairtail is a very common marine fish.

It has a ribbon-shaped body with flattened sides.The front dorsal margin is almost parallel, and the body length is generally 100cm.

The head is narrow and long, and the snout is long and pointed.The eyes are large, the distance between the eyes is flat, and the center is slightly convex.

Mouth large, straight, with posterior margin reaching below eye.

Lower jaw longer than upper jaw, prominent.The teeth are strong, with flat sides and pointed sides. There are 2 pairs of barb-shaped large canine teeth at the front of each jaw. The upper jaw has 10-13 lateral teeth; the lower jaw has 12-14 lateral teeth.

There are small free spines on the abdomen of hairtail fish. When swimming, they do not use their fins to paddle, but move upward by swinging their bodies.

It is a migratory fish that preys on hairy shrimp, squid and other small fish.

Hairtails have a mixed diet and are very greedy, sometimes cannibalistic.

It has the habit of moving vertically during the day and night. During the day, the group inhabits the middle and lower water layers of the ocean, and moves at the bottom of the sea water at night.The lifespan of hairtail is about 8 years.

Although the price of hairtail is not very high, this guy has a large output because it is a social fish. As long as you find a hairtail, there is a good chance that there will be a school of hairtail nearby.

The crew in the distance also saw Wang Husheng catch a octopus of about 2 meters. Without Ye Yuan's instructions, everyone had already cast the net, and it didn't take long for a pack of octopus to be dragged up.

Because there were too many fish caught, Wang Husheng and Ye Yuan also gave up fishing and joined the sorting ranks together.

Sorting fish, in fact, does not have any technical content, as long as you can do it, you can easily distinguish various sea fish.

Many people say that the salary of the crew is very high. Indeed, with the rapid economic development of Huaguo, the salary of an ordinary crew member is now 7000-10000 yuan.

Ye Yuan's salary for the crew is also 10000 yuan, which is not higher than the market price.

But don't forget that Ye Yuan gave bonuses to the crew, this is the reason why these people can work hard.

Since hairtails are the main fish caught this time, it is not difficult to pick them up. We just divide the hairtails into several grades according to their length, those below 1 meter, those between 1-1.5 meters, and finally those above 1.5 meters.

Although the sorting work is simple, people have to bend down to pick it up. After a long time, many crew members will suffer from waist diseases. This is one of the reasons why many people do not want to be crew members.

The fish caught on the deck was quickly sorted, and the sorted hairtail was sent to the freezer by the crew for quick freezing.

The trawling net is cast back into the sea again. You must know that if you encounter a large school of fish in the sea, you must keep salvaging.

The crew can only take a rest during the hour of casting the net.

When the fishing nets are towed back to the boat, the busy sorting work will start again.

Ye Yuan's fishing boat is not bad, it will only cast the net 3-4 times when encountering large schools of fish.

However, some fishing boats, if they encounter large schools of fish, will not leave until they catch them clean. This requires the crew to sort them without rest, so the crew is still very hard.

Ye Yuan was busy with the crew until the evening before stopping the salvage. A total of more than 10 tons of hairtail was harvested, which is already a good harvest.

According to the price of 20 yuan per kilogram, Ye Yuan's harvest reached 1 Huaxia coins this time, don't think it's very small, it's because Ye Yuan has a cheating device when going to sea.

If it is placed on an ordinary fishing boat, the fish catch of 20 yuan in one day is already very good.

Everyone has been busy for several hours, they are already hungry, and Gong Hongzhuang has already prepared dinner.

Ye Yuan is still satisfied with Gong Hongzhuang, the chef. He can use the only ingredients on the ship to make delicious meals for the crew, which also reduces the embarrassment of replenishment.

Many of the supplies on board are to buy vegetables that have been stored for a long time and are not easy to break, such as potatoes and Chinese cabbage.

Because everyone is very tired today, Gong Hongzhuang specially made braised pork and dry-stir-fried tea tree mushrooms, two dishes that are not usually cooked, and the staple food is steamed buns.

Everyone was too hungry, and after another day's work, there was no one chatting during the meal, and they all ate the food in front of them quickly.

At this moment, Gong Hongzhuang walked to Ye Yuan and sat down.

"Boss, how is the meal?"

"Yes, your workmanship is still very good"

While Ye Yuan was eating the steamed bun in his hand, he casually picked up a piece of braised pork and put it in his mouth.

Hearing what Ye Yuan said, Gong Hongzhuang felt relieved, after all, whether he can continue to work in the future depends on the young boss in front of him.

"That... Boss... I found out... no matter where our vegetables are purchased, they are not as good as those brought on our island. How about staying more island vegetables in the future?"

Gong Hongzhuang expressed his request in embarrassment. After all, the fishing boat is only so big. If the storage capacity of vegetables is increased, the space of the fishing boat will be affected. This kind of matter cannot be decided by a chef alone.

Gong Hongzhuang and the others may not be aware that Ding Er is responsible for the two items of vegetables and grain every time they are replenished. Even if the power of replenishment is now handed over to Yu Hongbo, it has not changed.

This is because the vegetables and food that Ding Er supplies to the fishing boat are all produced in Ye Yuan's space.

Ye Yuan deliberately vacated a warehouse on the island to store these ingredients, and would replenish the warehouse every time he went back, and explained to the outside that these ingredients were purchased by Ding Er in normal times.

So many crew members wanted to know where Ding Er purchased these delicious and beautiful ingredients.

Especially Gong Hongzhuang, who is a chef, who doesn't want his meals to be recognized by everyone.

But this not only requires excellent craftsmanship, but also the ingredients.

Since Gong Hongzhuang discovered that the ingredients purchased from the island were very good, he asked more than once where Ding Er purchased them.

But every time Ding Er gave the same answer, that is "confidentiality"

This made Gong Hongzhuang very depressed.

No, today he intends to test Ye Yuan, to see if, as the boss, he can know the source of the ingredients.

Ye Yuan smiled, "Then you go back and find Ding Er, I have no objection in principle, how much you will bring with you will be discussed with Lao Yu."

Gong Hongzhuang smiled awkwardly, he knew that Ye Yuan didn't intend to tell him about the purchase.

"Then boss, you are busy, I will discuss it with Lao Yu."

After speaking, he got up and took his leave to find Yu Hongbo.

Ye Yuan looked at the back of Gong Hongzhuang leaving with a smile, of course he knew what Gong Hongzhuang meant by these words, but he would not tell them about the ingredients in his own space.

Ye Yuan's vegetables are not only delicious, but also have many benefits for the human body.

It will take a long time for these things to show up. The bodies of the current crew members have undergone slight changes, but they haven't noticed it yet.

Due to the tiredness of the day, many crew members returned to the rest cabin early to prepare for rest.
