1983 Small Island, Starting From a Large Farmer Chapter 332

Chapter 332 Joint Fishing

(This chapter is not very well written, I will revise it later)

Late March.

Rongcheng Aquatic Products Processing Factory (Shangfeng Branch) is about to open, and recruitment flyers have also been distributed to the village.

People from the processing plant even come directly to the dock to recruit workers.

The village broadcaster also helped broadcast:

“Dear folks.

Dear villagers

Those who want to work in a processing factory, please come to the dock to sign up. The processing factory works six days a week and the monthly salary is 30 yuan. "

The villagers were immediately shocked when they heard the news, especially those on the other side. Everyone rushed to the dock.

I'm afraid that if I arrive late, I won't be able to get a spot.

If it's thirty a month.

If the couple works together, it will be 60 yuan.

For those of them who don't own a fishing boat, sixty yuan a month is already an astronomical sum.

They earn a small fortune every month, plus they do odd jobs for others, and they can't make that much money in a month.

If you work in a factory, it will be much more stable. As long as you work for a few years, you might be able to afford a boat.

After the announcement was broadcast, less than half an hour later, there was already a sea of people at the pier.

But apart from wages, everyone is more worried about other issues.

“If I go to work in your factory, will there be a place to stay?”

“If you don't live in the factory, are you responsible for pick-up and drop-off?”

“Is there a canteen in the factory, or do you have to cook your own meals?”

The recruiters also patiently answered questions raised by the villagers.

“There is a canteen in the factory. Eating is very cheap, so don't worry.”

“There are currently no dormitories. If there are many people working in the village, the factory can also arrange a special passenger boat to take you to and from get off work.”

“It's so good, then I want to sign up.”

The recruiter smiled bitterly and said: "Not everyone who applies can be admitted, we have to take assessments.

Ladies are given priority in the processing factory.

In the case of ice making plants and cold storage, priority will be given to men. "

Looking at the more than 100-meter-long applicant queue, Li Duoyu showed a knowing smile.

According to the original plan, the processing factory did not plan to recruit workers in their Xiasha Village.

Because it is really troublesome, we have to consider the issue of employee accommodation, and maybe we need to build a dormitory building.

But if dormitories were not built, it would take half an hour from Dandan Island to Qingkou Pier, and it would also cost a lot of money to pick them up and drop them off every day.

In the end, under Secretary Chen's strong suggestion, the processing plant finally gave fifty places to Xiasha Village.

After all, this project was won by him during the aquaculture work conference last year. He couldn't do it, and he wouldn't be given any face at all.

After learning that Xiasha Village was recruiting, everyone in Chenjia Village was extremely envious.

“I really want to move to your village.”

“Damn it, you guys are taking one step ahead of the other.”

For fishermen, having a processing plant and an ice-making plant means that they don't have to go to Rongcheng to buy ice in the future.

After fishermen catch the fish, they can also sell it directly to aquatic product processing plants, and the price may be better than before.

The fishermen with boats are all holding back their energy and want to go out to sea to fish right now.

In the past, aquatic products were processed in Rongcheng, more than 30 kilometers away from Qingkou Wharf.

The fishmonger makes a little profit, and after deducting the transportation costs, there is not much left in the hands of the fishermen.

Now fishermen can skip the second-tier dealers and sell directly to the seafood processing factory at Qingkou Wharf, and the profits will be much higher.

The freshness preservation problem that used to be the most troublesome for fishermen has also been solved.

Every summer when fishing, fishermen want to buy fresh crushed ice.

You have to sail to Rongcheng. The round trip takes five hours. It costs a lot of money for gas. Plus the money to buy ice, it's a huge discount.

It's okay when the weather is cold.

Fish doesn't spoil so quickly, so you don't need to use ice.

But if there is no ice in the summer, the fish may have started to taste bad before they even land.

Every summer, city dwellers often joke that what they eat is toilet fish, because in addition to the fishy smell, the stale seafood smells like ammonia.

Looking at the big ships at the pier, Shitou glanced at his own small sampan and couldn't help but sigh:

"It's not a good time. If I had a big boat at this time, I would be really happy."

Old man Mi on the side sighed: "It seems that the eldest and third sons of the Li family want to sell fishing boats. Do you want me to help you find out the price?"

Shitou was surprised: "Isn't their fishing boat still in good condition? Why do they suddenly want to sell it?"

"I also heard from people that their family members united and bought a large tugboat. It is said to be more than thirty meters long and has two engines. By then, it is possible to carry a net worth several thousand kilograms."

Shitou smiled bitterly and said: "I really want a trawler. I really don't want to play with sticky nets anymore. I am almost boring to death after fishing every day."

Old man Mi smiled and said: "If you buy a tugboat and catch fish, remember to come back and sell me some."

Shitou frowned and looked at Old Mi, and said seriously: "Old Mi, I think this processing plant has opened. Can you change your career?"

Old man Mi hummed:

“How can it get better? With my body, I can't catch fish at all. If you catch any good fish, sell them to me.”

In fact, many fishmongers at Qingkou Wharf have changed careers and directly become salesmen in aquatic product processing plants.

If you can't beat it, just choose to join.

On the third day after the opening of the aquatic product processing plant, three fishing boats were ready to go at the dock of Dandan Island.

Li Duoyu boarded his fishing boat carrying large and small bags.

This time they plan to fish together.

This is also the first time for the uncle and the third uncle to cooperate and plan to use a double tug boat to fish.

After seeing Li Duoyu, my second uncle who was smoking on the trawler smiled very happily.

"Duoyu, you are finally willing to fish with us. If you go out to sea with us, this trip will definitely be a hit."

The uncle next to him glared at him: "What a liquidation, I'm so unlucky. I can't speak, so just speak less."

The second uncle slapped his mouth and quickly faced the direction of Thean Hou Temple and repented: "I was too quick to talk. I was too quick to talk. Please keep us safe."

Seeing Li Duoyu also going to sea together, my uncle could not help but ask:

“Duoyu, I heard from people that your eel factory is very busy, why do you still have time to go to sea with us?”

Li Duoyu smiled: "It's not that busy. Besides, there are my brother and Xiaochao watching over there. I have nothing to do, so I might as well go to the sea to get some fresh air."

After careful management some time ago, the water quality of the eel factory is now very stable, including the health status of the eels.

As long as there is no such thing as a typhoon, there is almost nothing to worry about.

●There are three fishing boats involved in this joint fishing trip, including Li Duoyu's fishing boat, which is mainly used to find fish.

The main ship is the trawler owned by the third uncle Li Zhengfa, and the main crew is also on the third uncle's boat. The uncle's small tugboat is used as an auxiliary ship, with only two crew members.

Before going to sea, the uncle and the third uncle each carried a basket of food onto the boat. As before, they worshiped Mazu directly on the boat. He arranged the contents in the basket neatly on the bow of the boat, then lit a handful of incense with matches, and gave three incense sticks to each fisherman on the boat.

Hello everyone.

With the sound of firecrackers.

Three fishing boats sailed to Qingkou Pier. After filling up with ice, they sailed directly towards the Zhoushan Islands.

After driving for nearly ten hours, we finally arrived at the fishing ground in Zhoushan.

When arriving at the fishing ground.

it's getting dark.

Generally, when going to a strange place, the most troublesome thing for ship owners is that they don't know the situation under the sea.

If you just log off the Internet casually.

It would be very uncomfortable to be caught on the rocks, and it might take a long time to mend the net.

Even veteran fishermen like Uncle and Sanshu only dare to set their trawl nets in waters they are familiar with.

However, this time there are many fish, and the situation is completely different. The fish detector on his boat can not only find fish, but also judge the situation on the seabed.

Since entering the fishing ground.

Li Duoyu's fish finder kept beeping, and the screen was densely covered with dots.

He had never seen such an exaggerated signal on a fish detector, as if the fish detector was placed in a breeding pond.

Looking at the sea area in front of him, he couldn't help but sigh, it was indeed a fishing ground.

The number of marine fish is really not comparable to that in the waters near Dandan Island.

Li Shuguang, who was studying with the boat, looked at the dense dots and asked:

“There are many fish. Do these flashing dots on TV mean there are fish?”

Li Duoyu nodded: "That's right."

“Then these dots are all in the middle and on the top, does it mean that these fish are also in the middle and on the top?”

“That's right.”

“According to the fishing season in Zhoushan, the pelagic fish in this season means that these small dots are likely to be mackerel, and the larger ones may be mackerel.”

“What do you think of the grouper?”

Li Duoyu replied: "This is more difficult. Groupers generally live alone and are usually immobile."

“It depends on whether there are many reefs. If there are many, there is a high probability that there will be groupers.”

“So that's it, then how do you look at the terrain?”

Li Duoyu goes directly to the bottom position of the screen. It depends on whether the place is flat or not. If it is up and down, there is a high probability that there is a coral reef below.

“Wow, this is so advanced. Do we have this kind of equipment in our country now?”

Li Duoyu scratched his head.

"I don't know the specifics. There should be some, but the price shouldn't be cheap."

The simplest set of maritime radios can be sold at Longwei Shipyard for two to three thousand, while a fish detector like this is just built and costs at least five or six thousand, and it is estimated to be more than that.

Li Duoyu drove a fishing boat around the nearby waters and analyzed the data returned by the fish finder.

This sea area is not very flat, and there are many rocks at the bottom. If a trawl net is lowered to the bottom, the probability of being caught on the rocks is very high.

Li Duoyu took out the microphone.

“Min Rong 031, Min Rong 031, this is Min Rong 107, can you hear me?”

Not long after.

Li Duoyu's wireless device transmitted Uncle San's intermittent voice.

“Minrong 107 This is Minrong 031, you can hear it.”

After seeing that the other party could hear, Li Duoyu continued: "Minrong 031, there are many rocks on the seabed in this sea area. It is not recommended to bottom drag. There are many fish in the middle and upper layers. After setting the net, follow my fishing boat directly. "

“Minrong 031 received.”

After receiving the news, Uncle Li Zhengfa immediately ran to the deck and said to everyone: "Duoyu said that there is a reef area ahead and bottom dragging is not possible. Everyone should remove the weight of the trawl net and fish for the middle and upper layers."

The second uncle couldn't help but said: "Duoyu is a very powerful boat. You all know this. If we have him to lead the way, then we can go anywhere."

“You have a beautiful idea. The fish just come out to get some air. We have an eel factory, and the kelp harvest may be harvested next month.”

After everyone has removed the counterweight.

He threw a main rope onto Li Niantian's fishing boat. The two boats were about a hundred meters apart, and they pulled the trawl forward together.

Double trawl nets are much larger than single trawl nets. When a fishing boat pulls the net and moves forward for less than an hour, it can clearly feel the resistance.

Li Zhengtian thinks that the Internet must be exploded. There have been cases in the past where the Internet exploded shortly after being offline, but it was relatively rare.

At this time, the old fisherman Li Niantian directly approached the fishing boat without even saying hello.

As soon as the two tugboats approach.

That means setting up the net.

Different from the operation of a single tugboat, after Li Niantian's fishing boat approached, the second uncle threw an auxiliary rope onto the opposite fishing boat.

Uncle Li Niantian tied the auxiliary rope to the stem rope of the trawl net. After tying it, he shouted directly: "That's enough, close the Internet cafe."

At this point, it is no different from a single tow truck, with black smoke coming out from the clanking diesel engine.

The winch on the fishing boat started to turn.

Network packages appeared.

A very big pack!

Everyone looked at it carefully and were very excited: "I made a lot of money this time. They are all mackerel. How many kilograms is this net?"

The second uncle said with emotion: "As expected, you should bring a lot of fish with you when you go to sea. As long as he is here, there will be more fish."

The uncle gave him a disgusted look and said, "That's the power of technology, okay? I heard Shuguang say that with the TV on his boat, you can see how many fish there are on the bottom of the sea."

Li Duoyu also saw a whole net of sea fish from the fishing boat. This net contained at least five thousand kilograms of fish.

After the net bag was caught, Li Duoyu glanced at the mast of Uncle San's fishing boat because the net bag was too heavy.

When it was hoisted, it actually made a creaking sound, and the winch was also very hard to pull.

Something embarrassing happened.

Uncle San's boat is quite old, and he caught too many fish, so the net couldn't be lifted.

At this time, Li Duoyu discovered that there was a "thief" stealing fish under the net.

Under the net bag, there is a huge creature more than ten meters long with many spots on its body. It is secretly sucking the fish in the net with its big mouth open.

After seeing this big fish, a young crew member on the fishing boat was very excited. He picked up a long stick and wanted to bucket the big fish.

As a result, the second uncle cursed:

“Don't mess around. This kind of fish is very friendly to us fishermen. It's okay to let it eat. Instead, it can **** away those small fish, and we can just set up the net.”
