Chapter 181 The polar bear on the iceberg

In the North Pacific, Xiao Ming and others continued to walk north. The more they went north, the more precious cold-water seafood there were, such as king crabs.

The king crab is huge in size, with the largest capacity of more than ten kilograms, and is known as the "king of crabs". Many people don't know that the king crab is actually not a real crab. From the outside, the king crab is about 25 cm wide and the legs are about 1 meter long. It is the larger of crustaceans, and the whole body is covered with hard thorns.

In addition, most crabs generally see move horizontally. King crabs can not only move horizontally but also vertically.

September to October is the best time to catch king crabs, so this is just right.

Xiao Hai ordered Xiao Ming and the others to return a boat, and Xiao Ming and the others would continue to move north.

This type of crab breeding in large quantities will bring disaster to the marine ecology. According to scientific research, once it invades a sea area, they will soon destroy their competitors. They are strong in themselves, and with strong reproduction ability, it is difficult to find opponents, so don’t be polite if you encounter it.

Marine experts once said that more than one million king crabs have invaded Antarctic waters, which is likely to trigger a catastrophe in the Antarctic waters.

It can be seen from this that the king crab has strong survivability and there is no need to worry about extinction of species for the time being.

Its price is usually higher than that of spider crabs, and it is normal for two or three hundred yuan per catty on the market.

Some people may ask, since the number of king crabs is so large, it is not reasonable that they are so expensive, right?

In fact, king crabs are really not expensive abroad.

In China, it is because the seas where king crabs are produced are full of polluted deep seas, and the distance they import to China is very far away? The freight is expensive, plus import taxes, etc. In addition, many people don’t know how difficult the process of salvaging king crabs is. They basically risk their lives to salvage. During the salvage season, there are accidents that go out to sea to die at sea every week.

After all, the price of king crab is high, not because it is rare? It is difficult to catch.

However? This is not a problem for Xiao Hai at all!

Just turn on the fish lure? Groups of king crabs under the sea will be delivered to your door by themselves.

Fortunately, there are no other fishing boats nearby? Otherwise, when I saw the king crabs constantly popping up to the sea, I would definitely think I was a ghost.

They salvage the emperors and risk their lives to catch them one by one.

You should know? King crabs usually live on the seabed at a depth of 700 to 800 meters. The survival temperature is close to zero. If you want to catch them, it is undoubtedly difficult. The cost is high, so it is natural to sell them at a high price.

In the West? Is it a waste to eat king crabs? I basically only eat crab legs.

In fact, what can a king crab be eaten? Can it be broken down into three parts? They are the crab legs, the crab body and the crab fight.

King crabs are not only edible with crab legs, but also delicious crab bodies and crab fights.

Can the crab body be processed by charcoal roasting? Roast the crab meat inside, peel the crab meat inside, and eat it alone? It can also be used for fried rice, boiling soup, etc. The crab roe in the crab bucket is very delicious, and the roasted crab roe exudes a strong aroma? It tastes the best when used for bibimbap.

But the essence of King crab is concentrated on the crab legs. The flesh of the crab legs is fragrant and sweet, with thick fiber but not tooth. The crab legs are stuffed into the mouth, and a full bite of crab legs is particularly satisfying. It is best to boil and steam it in water, because King crab itself is a seafood and has salt and salty taste, and no other seasoning is needed when steaming.

Therefore, when foreigners eat king crabs, they usually remove the crab body and crab roe inside, and only leave the king crab thighs for consumption. Many Chinese restaurants also follow Western traditions, leaving only crab legs and throwing away crab shells, which is really a waste.

Xiao Ming and his team got two or three hundred tons of king crabs in less than a day.

Just as they were about to return, they accidentally discovered a huge iceberg drifting southward. Needless to ask, this is an iceberg from the Arctic. Because it is huge, it will not completely melt in a short period of time.

What really surprised Xiao Hai was that there was a polar bear on the iceberg.

It seems that it is trapped on an iceberg. If nothing unexpected happens, the polar bear will die in the vast ocean. Although it can swim, it has no endurance and cannot cross the ocean.

Xiao Hai thought about it, started the broadcast again, and switched to Xiao Ming's visual side.

"Hey! Why is it Xiao Ming again? I have used your boss' live broadcast number very frequently recently!"

"As we all know, this is Xiao Ming's live broadcast room."

"Is there any big news this time?"

...

Audiences familiar with Xiao Hai's routines know that every time Xiao Ming logs in, there are major events.

Xiao Ming smiled and said, "The reason I broadcast live to everyone is because we encountered an iceberg and gave you a long experience. I guess many people have never seen it before?"

"Xiao Ming, who do you look down on? Are we so ignorant? We haven't seen icebergs up close. Haven't seen them on TV? Who hasn't seen them when they were young?"

"Haha! That's right. But there are icebergs in that place? Isn't it wrong? Isn't icebergs only found in the Arctic and Antarctic?"

"Khan! Didn't the legendary Titanic sink into an iceberg in the North Atlantic? Who said that only the Arctic and Antarctic have icebergs?"

The Titanic was the largest luxury passenger ship in the world at that time, and was called the "never sunk passenger ship" or the "dream passenger ship".

Ironically, this passenger ship, known as the never-sinking, was "disobedient" by the iceberg during its first voyage and was directly sunk to the bottom of the sea.

...

Many viewers in the live broadcast room reminded Xiao Ming and others that since they encountered an iceberg, safety should be the priority and it is best not to get close to them.

Xiao Ming moved the camera to the iceberg, and the audience saw the huge iceberg in the distance, most of which were under the sea. Only a very small part of it emerged, emitting a burst of chill. This is how the idiom "tip of the iceberg" came from.

"Damn! No wonder even a cruise ship as big as the Titanic has to kneel."

Before everyone could finish their amazement, Xiao Ming pulled the camera closer.

At this time, many viewers noticed that on the iceberg, a polar bear was walking uneasyly and was a little thin.

"No, is it? Polar Bear?"

"Leaving the Arctic continent, this polar bear is finished."

"Not necessarily! I remember this thing can swim."

...

Someone immediately explained that polar bears are still terrestrial creatures, not marine creatures, and cannot live in the ocean for a long time. This polar bear trapped on icebergs is especially far away from the mainland, and there is basically no possibility of survival.

As the iceberg melts little by little, the polar bears will never settle down in the end and will definitely become the food for other large marine creatures.

Xiao Ming showed a silly smile: "I just told the boss about this, and now the boss is in a difficult situation. Whether to save this polar bear. Polar bears are protected animals. If they are not handled well, they will be misunderstood as catching and protecting animals, which is illegal.

Moreover, after being rescued, what should I do next? Send it back to the Arctic? Anyway, Sand Heart Island cannot provide it with habitat.

The boss asked me to wait a moment, and he contacted the relevant departments first..."

The audience said that they had to save them! Anyway, everyone was watching, so what misunderstandings were there? Everyone would testify to the island owner.

Of course, they can also understand the island owner's concerns.
