583. Days without going to sea (8/10)
Damn, I'm going to stay up late again, don't wait, wake up tomorrow and watch it. Don't stay up all day like eggshell. It's really bad for your health. Eggshell must have a good rest after these days. ****
The tide changes are not only one day, and the Newfoundland waters will continue to be affected by low tides and high tides in the next few days. For this reason, the Marine Meteorological Bureau of St. Johns specially issued an orange wave warning, indicating that fishermen should not go out to sea at this time.
In this way, Qin Shiou and the fishermen will have a relaxed life, and it is not suitable for fishing in the sea, and no one will come to the fishing ground to steal fish at this time, so they will have free time.
Shaq and Bill contacted and discussed the issue of raising shells in the fishing grounds. The main focus was on edible mussels in the sea, 'marine milk' oysters, and 'the world' clams.
These three shellfish are relatively popular. They are not only delicious, but also have high nutritional value. They are rich in protein, inorganic salts, trace elements and vitamins.
There were still a small half of the grape seedlings that were not planted and could not go to sea. Smoke Guns and sea monsters took the fishermen to plant the remaining grape seedlings, and then pumped water to irrigate them. Qin Shiou took the opportunity to instill the energy of the sea god into these grape seedlings.
The grape vines, which were originally wilted due to the transplant, quickly became energetic after absorbing the energy of the Sea God, and the color also changed from dull to green.
The fishermen didn't understand why, and thought that the grape seedlings they chose were very energetic and praised them in various ways. Qin Shiou shook his head.
The construction of vineyards is much more troublesome than greenhouse planting. Grape seedlings are planted. Before the matter is over, Qin Shiou hired people to install fifty super fans three or four meters high.
The purpose of these fans is to use it at night to blow away the mist and moisture that covers the vineyards. It prevents them from condensing on the grapes and affecting the taste of the grapes.
Qin Shiou had to pay the money and didn't have to ask him to care about the rest. He went to the radar station again. After getting Franco's promise that everything went smoothly, he drove Mao Weilong and his family to the town for a large purchase.
Mao Weilong said, "Why don't I be a fisherman here too, Qin Shiou laughed and said, "You should just take it down, it's not that your eldest master can't suffer. But how many kinds of fish can you know? How do you judge the male and female lobsters? Do you know these common sense? You don't know if you're going to have a bird."
Mao Weilong was so angry that he said that I don’t understand but would ask, it won’t take long to learn these things.
Qin Shiou curled his lips and said, "Don't underestimate the ocean. I have been studying for a year. I haven't learned much. Why do you think I give Shake Sea Monster Smoke Guns so high? Because they are old fishermen and have a lot of experience, this needs to be forged by going to sea and fishing."
Mao Weilong sighed and said, "Then I'm really useless?"
Qin Shiou comforted him and said, "Don't say that, it's useful, for example, you can drink with me."
"Get out!" Mao Weilong was furious.
Qin Shiou laughed loudly, stepped on the accelerator and drove into the town, and went to a convenience store to help Mao Weilong and his family buy things.
After entering the convenience store, Qin Shiou saw that Hughes was not there. Only his wife stood at the cashier, so he asked Hughes what he was doing.
Mrs. Hughes smiled and said, "They went to the northwest corner to pick horse teeth. Recently, the tide was low. It was a good opportunity to pick horse teeth once in a few decades. Now there are many tourists in the town and the demand is high. Yesterday, the horse teeth they picked were sold for more than 1,200 yuan."
Horse teeth are gooseneck barnacles, because this thing looks like a horse's teeth, locals nickname it horse teeth.
Mao Weilong ate this thing when he came last time, and he remembered it very deeply about its ugly appearance and amazing deliciousness. He laughed and said, "If it doesn't work, I'll dig some that thing, too. My credit card has been swept. I'm short of money now."
Qin Shiou warned him: "Don't do it randomly, it's very dangerous to do that work. Don't joke about your life for a few small money."
Mao Weilong said: "Didn't you listen to the boss's wife? Many people in the town are digging barnacles now. What dangers can there be?"
Qin Shiou said: "Can you compare with them? Don't think that the work people here do have nothing to do with the fishing industry. In fact, they are all old fishermen. Those seven or eight-year-old children are better than you, so you should settle down."
Mao Weilong was unwilling to give up and encouraged him, "Go and have a look. It would be good if you can buy some food, right?"
This is no problem. After Qin Shiou paid the bill, he drove to the former site of Chuntian Chemical Factory with a throttle. These places have become his territory. After taking over the Gatori Fishery, he opened up the entire farewell island.
Two chemical factories that were once crowded and prosperous and prosperous were becoming dilapidated. They had not started construction for a year, and the chemical factories quickly lost their popularity. The front door and yard were covered with weeds, and the mighty door was attacked by sea breeze and water vapor, and they also became rusty.
The big wolf dogs that used to show off their power in the yard disappeared, and the doorman disappeared together. All doors from the outside to the inside of the factory were hung with large stainless steel locks, declaring the desolation inside.
Mao Weilong didn't know the past of the chemical factory. After parking, he looked at Chuntian Chemical Factory and asked, "Is there no one to use this factory? What do you think if I rent it and open it?"
Qin Shiou laughed and said, "Not really, believe me, you will be torn and eaten by the people in the town!"
He told Mao Weilong about the past disputes between the two chemical factories and the town. After listening to it, Mao Weilong shook his head thoughtfully and said, "It is definitely not possible to open a chemical factory, but there are other businesses that can be done, as long as it is pollution-free, isn't it?"
"Where is there any pollution in the factory?" Qin Shiou said naturally.
Mao Weilong did not explain. He used to work in the Industrial and Commercial Bureau, so he naturally knew more about this business.
There were many cars parked in the parking lot in front of the factory, and some tourists were also traveling around. From time to time, people turned up from the steep cliff and took out the gooseneck barnacles. At this time, tourists would go up to buy them.
Because it is just a side job, the fishermen in the town don’t care much about the price. The larger gooseneck barnacle is 100 yuan per catty, while the smaller one is 50 yuan per catty, which is several times lower than the market price outside. No wonder tourists are rushing to buy it.
Qin Shiou saw the Hughes brothers sitting under the tree smoking, so he walked over to ask about the situation. Hughes was so tired that he was panting, and said, "Although you don't have to worry about the waves, these damn horse teeth are too firm! God, my arm is about to break!"
When Hughes saw Mao Weilong, they met and played ball together, so he greeted him and asked, "Do you want to pick the horse teeth? I have a little more, but not much, you can take it back and eat it first."
Qin Shiou took off his sportswear and exposed his lean muscles and smiled and said, "No need, man, I'll just go down and grab it myself."
Although gooseneck barnacles can be harvested every year, due to the waves, there are not many barnacles that can be harvested every year. After decades of accumulation, there are quite a few gooseneck barnacles under the small steep cliffs. The townsmen are harvesting barnacles in safe locations, and many of them are growing below.
Qin Shiou borrowed a rope to tie it to his waist, and then asked Mao Weilong to put the rope for him. He slowly climbed the steep wall and fell down, took out his sabre and started picking barnacles. (To be continued)
