182. First time going south (2)
Grouper is a good thing. It is rich in nutrients, tender and white in meat, similar to chicken, and is known as "sea chicken". Of course, its nutritional value is definitely much higher than that of chicken.
In addition, because of their size and appearance, they are also called sea carp. Needless to say, grouper is much more valuable than carp, and both sides are not of the same level of food at all!
No matter where it is, grouper is a top-notch edible fish, especially in the southern regions of China and Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan. Diners are particularly keen on this fish and recommend it as one of the four famous fish in China.
Grouper mostly exists in tropical and temperate oceans, and likes to live in the sea areas with rocks, gravel and coral reefs near coastal islands. There are many types and particularly many, but most do not like to form groups.
Ao Muyang encountered grouper several times while diving, but because they were all produced by themselves, he did not catch them. The price was too high and the gain was not worth the loss.
Groupers are fish after all, and they are much more flexible in the sea than Ao Muyang. As long as they miss one blow, they will run away without a trace, so Ao Muyang is too lazy to catch them after encountering them.
But now that he has a long-term business, he is interested.
He did not go out to sea for two days after the National Day holiday, so he soaked in the water every day, nominally playing with tigers to attract tourists, but actually drawing water to strengthen the golden elixir.
Because he raised hundreds of lobsters, he consumed more gold drops now. In addition, Lu Hu urgently needed Jinxiu lobster, so he released more gold drops and needed to continuously draw water to replenish it.
In the past two days, Longtou Village was like a large army passing through the border. The whole village was crushed. It seemed that people were everywhere in the village, and people were everywhere on the beach.
As the National Day ends, the flow of people has dropped sharply. Starting from October 8, some people still come to see the killer whales, but the number is already small.
Ao Muyang has recovered his habit of letting the tigers come to the seaside next to the wharf for a few laps sooner or later. At other times, he drove out to sea to find grouper.
Groupers in China mainly live in the South China Sea area. So Ao Muyang decided to go south and take a long voyage. Of course, it was a long voyage near the sea. It was just a long journey, but it was not deep into the ocean...
To catch grouper, it is unnecessary to enter the sea too deep. Grouper is a warm and warm fish and likes to survive in warm offshore waters.
However, their habitat water layers will rise and fall with the change of water temperature. Generally speaking, in spring and summer, they like to live in water layers with a depth of 10 to 30 meters. When the water temperature drops in autumn and winter, they swim to deeper waters of 40 to 80 meters.
Ao Muyang asked Ao Daguo and others about his opinions, saying that he wanted to walk south and go to the south to see the situation.
Ao Daguo agreed happily: "You are the leader, you have the final say!"
Ao Wenchang was even more overjoyed: "That's great, I can finally stay away from my parents."
Ao Muyang was ready and checked the date. The ten days in mid-October were all good weather, with clear autumn and gentle sea breezes, which was a good day to go out to sea.
He told Lu Zhizi, saying that he had not been at home these days, so if he had something to do, he asked her to find Teacher Ao Zhisheng. Ao Zhisheng has great prestige in the village and most of the things can be settled.
Just as he was about to set off, Ao Wenchang suddenly said he couldn't go.
Ao Muyang thought it was his parents who did not allow it, frowned and said, "What's wrong with Uncle Qian Yao? Are you raising you in the deep boudoir like a little girl?"
Ao Wenchang said whimperingly: "No, no, the dragon head, it's not my parents' business. Oh, it's something else. Really, I have to deal with some private matters."
"Really? Do you want me to help?" Ao Muyang asked.
Ao Wenchang shook his head and sighed: "Oh, I can solve the problem of emotional things myself..."
Hearing this, Ao Muyang stopped talking. He was a novice in his relationship, and he really couldn't help with this.
Ao Daguo punched Ao Wenchang: "Emotional problem? OK, scholar, I didn't realize that you have this ability. You can still hook up with a girl while staying at home all day. It's amazing."
Ao Wenchang smiled bitterly and said, "Uncle Daguo, stop kidding me."
Ao Daguo turned around and said to Ao Mubing: "Da Bing, look at the scholar, and look at you, how old you are, don't have a wife yet?"
Ao Mubing smiled and said, "What do you want to have a wife? Now you need a bride gift and a car room to get married. There is more than one million, right? I will go to the county to find a woman, a high-end product that costs 500 yuan per day, and I can find a one million yuan for Made 5,000 times!"
"Two thousand times, not five thousand times." Ao Wenchang habitually corrected him.
Ao Mubing said: "Don't care how many times he has, I can't play with it anyway!"
Ao Qianpan waved and said, "Brave, I didn't realize that you still have this ability. Come and borrow a piece to speak."
Ao Muyang said: "Okay, don't joke around. Wenchang, you are busy with your business. Then let's go out and go to sea for two or three days to see the situation."
From the pier to the south, the fishing boats sailed all the way.
In order to save money on gas, Ao Muyang did not drive a sea fishing boat this time.
The Red Ocean is located at the junction of the two provinces, and belongs to the junction of the East China Sea and the Yellow Sea. A little further south is the East China Sea. The most common grouper in Chinese waters is the South China Sea, followed by the East China Sea.
As autumn began, Ao Muyang drove to the sea area forty or fifty meters deep. He would occasionally jump into the sea to play with the tiger for a while. At this time, he would take the opportunity to see the situation in the sea.
Grouper is a carnivorous ferocious fish that preys on benthic crustaceans, various small fish and cephalopods in a sudden attack.
Ao Muyang knows all these, so he pays special attention to areas suitable for grouper life.
Because groupers like quietness and fear waves, warmth and coldness, and clearness and turbidity, whenever they find no undercurrents in the sea area of 40 or 50 meters deep, and the sea water is clear and lightly polluted, they will pay special attention to it and look for small fish and cephalopods.
After driving for more than a day, he didn't encounter grouper, but instead encountered a group of fish that were grayish-white and mixed with blue-white, flat, and the size of his palm.
These fish were horse-faced fish, and he encountered a school of horse-faced fish.
The scientific name of horse-faced fish is green-finned horse-faced fish, which has many common names, including rubber fish, skinned fish, peeled fish, breaded fish, etc.
This fish is more common in the East China Sea, and its output is second only to hairtail. It ranks second in my country's wild marine aquatic output.
Since the output is high, the price will naturally not be high.
But the horse-faced fish is full of waste and is a very good fish. Especially its cod liver is very large, accounting for three or four percent of its weight, and is suitable for cod liver oil.
After discovering the fish, he surfaced and signaled Ao Daguo and others to prepare to get off the net.
"What fish?" Ao Mubing asked after spitting out his cigarette butt.
Ao Muyang smiled and said, "Horse-faced fish, go back and dry the dried fish. By the end of the year, you can go and get New Year's goods."
