Chapter 535: Shrimp Kui
In fact, when he saw this big ship, Wang Jun's heart was already shocked inexplicably, after all, these two big ships had stopped in the port last night, and the entire people in Dengzhou City knew about the existence of these two big ships.
In addition, Li Yuanba also specially set up a search team for these two big ships, and the wages he paid were enough to make people feel shocked, after all, even if ordinary people made money desperately for a month, they would definitely not be able to earn a hundred yuan.
These two points alone are enough to make people think that this prince is crazy.
Anyway, if you have that spare money, it is far more cost-effective to change a big ship to a small boat and transport anything than to go out to sea with two big boats to fish.
"Wang Jun, this vision should be long-term, patronizing the current profit, but it is a bit thin!"
Li Yuanba laughed when he heard this, and said, "Only this time, only this time!" After returning from the sea, if you still think so, then the king will sell these two ships immediately! ”
Li Yuanba's words this time are a bit ruthless, according to his meaning, if the income is insufficient, he will sell the ship, which is clearly a deal!
If it were an ordinary person, I am afraid that Li Yuanba would think that this was a joke, after all, ordinary people can't do it with a hammer.
But Wang Jun doesn't think so, his understanding of his own prince is much more profound, since the prince said yes, then it must be possible!
……
The two big ships, one after the other, sailed on the sea, and I don't know if Li Yuanba was too lucky, they didn't encounter those vicious waves or storms on the sea along the way, and they calmly seemed to be sailing on a big lake.
From the port of Dengzhou, the starting point, Li Yuanba can't remember how many nautical miles there are, and with his thoughts, I'm afraid he only cares about the general direction. The rest of the details don't care at all.
"Lord Wang, if you sail further, you will find a reef, and on the other side of the reef is a natural fishing ground, which not only has all kinds of fatty sea fish, but also scallops, shrimps, and octopus have a lot of ......."
Just when Li Yuanba was blowing the cool breeze of Xi Xi and was going to come to a set of military boxing. Niu ran over panting vigorously and reported to Li Yuanba.
Prawn Kui!
Li Yuanba's eyes couldn't help but light up, and just hearing this name made him start to swallow saliva non-stop.
Shrimp kui is lobster.
Although there are more than 400 species of lobsters in the world, and there are very few distributions in China, the lobsters in China are more chewy and delicious than those lobsters in North America in terms of meat quality and fatness.
At least, in the waters of China, there are not so many natural enemies of this lobster. So this carefree life will naturally be wide and fat.
In his previous life, Li Yuanba was only fortunate to taste the taste of Australian lobster when one of his local tyrant classmates got married, and since then it has been out of control.
Of course, who is crazy to eat lobster every day, how much does that cost? But just like that, it is enough to show how persistent Li Yuanba is in the pursuit of lobster meat!
Of course. This lobster is also a shrimp kui, even in Chang'an City, it is a thing that is worth a thousand gold. Even for those rich families, shrimp kui can't always appear at their table.
It can also be seen from this how high the value of shrimp kui is!
"Hurry, hurry up, this time I will catch dozens of cages for anything!"
Just like a gambler saw countless chips, Li Yuanba's performance at this moment was no worse than those gamblers.
"But. Rajah! ”
A look of embarrassment appeared on Niu Dali's face, and he continued:
"Lord Wang, the fourth brother let the little one tell you that the reef group in front of you may run aground even if it is an old fisherman, if we just rush in. I'm afraid that the ship will be wrecked, and you will ...... when the time comes."
"Okay, you guys are good at everything, but you're too petty!"
Li Yuanba interrupted Niu Dali with a wave of his hand, and continued:
"You go and tell Qiao Siwei, just say that this king said it! Transfer two small boats out of the cabin, go to explore the path first, and then the big ship will follow up, won't it be over? ”
"Yes!" The ox replied vigorously and hurried towards the stern of the boat.
Before the tea was gone, a large hole appeared in the middle of a sailboat, and two small sand boats, which could only carry more than ten people, were pushed out of the big hole.
The two small boats, led by Qiao Siwei himself, slowly rowed in the direction of the reef group.
Li Yuanba, Wang Jun and Li Ke each moved a chair and sat on the deck, and hung down a few fishing rods as if they were really fishing.
A stick of incense has passed, Li Yuanba is waiting, two pillars of incense have passed, Li Yuanba is still waiting......
Finally, at the time of the third incense, things took a turn for the better.
The two boats that had gone out to investigate finally returned, but they were all in tatters, as if they had been struck many times.
Fortunately, there were no fewer people on board, and no one was injured, so this exploration can be regarded as a success!
Back on the boat, Qiao Siwei saluted Li Yuanba respectfully and said, "Lord Wang, fortunately, I am not dishonored!" The reefs ahead have been explored, and our ship can move in! ”
"Hahaha, good, good!" Li Yuanba's face appeared with joy, and his big hand suddenly waved forward, "Lead the way!" ”
This time, Qiao Siwei did not speak, but came directly to the wheelhouse, commanding the person at the helm to start controlling the direction of the sailboat.
The two giant sailing ships sailed into the reef group, and under the command of Qiao Siwei, they turned around, and every time they turned to the reef, they would always dodge by a fraction of a second, and even Li Yuanba was a little surprised by that kind of accuracy.
This Qiao Siwei is really a natural navigator!
It took about half a column of incense to go straight and straight, and when it turned the last reef, everything suddenly became clear.
Sure enough, it was a spectacular scene, two huge sailing ships had just passed the reef, and suddenly a shocking scene was displayed in front of everyone.
It was a group of shrimp swarms, crawling wildly two or three nautical miles from the reef.
This lobster colony is composed of about one or two thousand lobsters of all sizes, with hundreds of large and red shell lobsters of three or four feet leading the way, followed by other lobsters.
The spectacular scene, from a distance, looks like a crimson Great Wall, connected from end to end, for several miles.
"Damn, I know that this king is greedy, even God knows that he feels sorry for me!"
Seeing this scene, Li Yuanba immediately laughed, and the corners of his mouth couldn't stop at all.
"Brothers, you are experts in fishing, I won't say much about the rest, as long as you can catch all these shrimp kui for this king in the shortest possible time, this king will reward you with ten taels of silver each!"
Li Yuanba directly ordered his subordinates to drop anchor, and then roared loudly.
The fishermen on the boat, who were specially hired by Li Yuanba, immediately moved after Li Yuanba's words landed.
Perhaps they had already thought about catching shrimp before going to sea, and those men took some special cages from the barn, and looked at the swarthy and faintly emitted a silver bright color, which was clearly made of fine steel.
"Order, the water is ten feet deep, ready to go to the cage!"
There are fishermen who know how to test the depth of the water, and they struggle to pull the rods out of the water.
Generally speaking, if you want to catch some aquatic creatures with pincers or spines, you have to test the depth and temperature of the water, and you have to use special catching tools, otherwise it will be a wasted effort.
This reason, put it in Li Yuanba's previous life, and put it in the present, it is naturally the same!
Soon, the fishermen, who knew how to catch fish, immediately lowered the special cage into the water in an orderly manner, and there were actually some thin barbed wire nets attached to the cages, which were of course not used to catch shrimp.
They are used to catch other fish, and of course shrimp kui is still the main one.
When the last cage was lowered, someone immediately lowered the buoys, which were used for marking, so that the ground could be successfully lifted out later, so as not to miss them.
Of course, the most important point is the bait, which has already been put in the cage, but the location is relatively hidden, and no one notices.
Right now, the cage drinking nets are all down, and the rest of the ground is to quietly wait for the shrimp kui to take the bait.
The wait is always long, of course, when those shrimp are so close to the ground, Li Yuanba has reason to believe that under the temptation of these bait, these lobsters will not last long and will be locked in a cage.
I waited from dawn to noon, and from noon to afternoon.
When the sun was about to reach the westernmost point, the fishermen generally thought that the time was almost up, so they ran directly to Li Yuanba to ask whether to collect the net.
Li Yuanba doesn't understand this, he's just a standard gluttonous foodie, how do you know what to do next?
But since they asked, he also pushed the boat down the river, lest those lobsters really have to run away.
"Anchor, close the net!"
Niu Dali roared at Qiao Siwei's signal.
Niu Dali's loud voice soon spread throughout the two boats, and a total of four hundred fishermen on the two boats moved in an instant.
At the stern of the ship, there was something similar to a grinding disc, except that the plate used for grinding on it had been replaced by a rotating shaft with at least ten legs.
Ten fishermen, as strong as bulls, came to this place like a millstone, and without saying a word, began to push the shaft with a stick in their hands.
At the stern of the boat, at least 100 fishermen shouted trumpets, waiting to catch the specially made cages and nets that had been lowered into the sea. (To be continued......)
