The Fish I Catch Can Be Upgraded - Chapter 303
Chapter 303 Some players’ backhands
When Jiang Luoluo was counting, the tourists passing by the port gathered around because of so many tunas, holding up their mobile phones to take pictures and post them on Moments.
When a nearly four-meter-large black-skinned marlin was hoisted out of the refrigerated cabin by a crane, everyone was in an uproar.
When did such a shocking big fish appear in China without a group of people around to join in the fun?
How many people have seen this kind of real ocean overlord with their own eyes.
This huge black-skinned marlin, not to mention many tourists who saw the sea for the first time, even the staff on site couldn’t help being amazed, because they had never seen it before.
At the beginning, the few people who came to the refrigerated cabin to see it were calm, mainly because they were already surprised.
For this black-skinned marlin, in order to ensure its integrity, Chu Mingcheng deliberately sacrificed some space in the refrigerated compartment and kept its long beak.
After cryogenic freezing, it is as hard as a large specimen.
It’s just that the frost on the surface slightly covered up its original arrogance, which made it look a lot paler.
Even so, a giant black marlin stole the limelight from a bunch of albacore tuna and became the prettiest pup on the scene.
Chu Mingcheng and Jiang Luoluo were also held by Cai Xueting for an interview. After the interview, the value of all the fish had been counted.
Because the black-skinned marlin is big enough, the organizer gave the market price as a gimmick, which is 60 yuan a catty.
Of course, it is said that it is the market price, but in fact, such a large black-skinned marlin can command a lot of premium.
The main reason is that the integrity of this fish is so good that some people are willing to pay a high price to buy it back to make specimen collections.
As a contestant, Chu Mingcheng had no choice but to sell the fish to the organizer.
The organizers are not doing charity. After they give a reasonable price, it is impossible for the players to sell their catches to other fishing companies or private owners.
The marlin weighed 731 kilograms this time, and the blood in the whole body only lost 6 kilograms after draining, which is obviously impossible.
But Chu Mingcheng drained the blood, but flushed it with tap water, so the tap water replaced part of the blood and was frozen, so it is only so light that it is reasonable.
The price of this marlin is 43,860 yuan, which is close to the annual salary of an ordinary person.
In addition to black skin marlin, there are forty-three albacore tuna.
After weighing, all the albacore tuna weighed more than 50 catties, and the total weight was 2,733 catties, which was several hundred catties more than Chu Mingcheng estimated.
Unfortunately, the average price is not high, only 56 yuan, so the total price is only more than 153,000 points.
The total income of this return voyage was more than 196,900 yuan, which was almost 200,000 yuan.
The number on the Chuming City leaderboard is 157,000, still in second place, and the players behind have not returned yet, so the previous order has not changed for the time being.
After a short while, the number on the second place in the ranking changed to 354,000.
Although the ranking has not changed, the gap with the first place has narrowed a lot.
The changes on the leaderboard immediately attracted the attention of many players with fishing boats.
Basically, players who can afford a fishing boat and have a good boat configuration are not short of money, so everyone will configure a small mobile base station for convenience.
In this way, there is a signal when going out to sea, so that friends and family members will not be unable to contact themselves. These players will occasionally pay attention to the situation on the leaderboard.
No, the actual amount of the second place in the leaderboard suddenly increased by 200,000, and several players discovered it immediately.
The players on one of the fishing boats had just finished their work and were having dinner together.
The captain casually swiped down the leaderboard, and immediately said a mantra: “Fuck, the second place has suddenly increased by 200,000!”
Crewman A: “It seems that he went to sea one night later than us, that is to say, today is only the third day, so this is 200,000?”
Crewman B: “Did you catch a bluefin tuna?”
Crewman C: “No, look at the announcement on the APP, the second place caught a marlin weighing more than 700 catties and 43 albacore tuna this time.”
Captain: “Fuck, forty-three? How did he do it?”
Crew D: “I remember that there were only two people on board, isn’t that a bit exaggerated? Five of us are fishing at the same time, so it’s hard to finish in such a short period of time, right?”
The situation is indeed a bit unbelievable. Anyone who has actually caught sixty to seventy catties of albacore tuna knows that this thing is not easy to catch.
It may take an hour for a single person without the assistance of an electric winch.
According to the normal situation, if five people go on the field at the same time, it should take eight or nine hours to catch 43 fish, which is indeed possible in terms of time.
But there is a limit to a person’s physical strength. It is enough to catch one tuna, let alone seven or eight in a row.
The world’s top athletes, those with the best endurance may not be able to resist.
However, there were only two people on Chu Mingcheng’s boat, which was even more unbelievable.
Therefore, someone immediately asked whether he had secretly brought a fishing net or a longline, and how could it be possible for him to fish normally.
Those who were jealous even called the organizer directly, suspecting Chu Mingcheng and the others of cheating, and asked the organizer to re-check their boat.
Suddenly, everyone started discussing this matter on the radio, even Chen Yang and others near the high seas knew about it.
Out of concern for his brother, he immediately called Chu Mingcheng.
“Ah Cheng, many players are discussing on the radio that you caught forty-three tuna in just three days. Everyone thinks it’s impossible. What’s the current situation on your side?”
Chu Mingcheng watched a group of staff board the boat to search, and shrugged speechlessly: “It’s nothing, the organizer specially arranged ten staff members to board the boat because of this matter. There were even divers who went to the bottom of the boat to check, I was also drunk .”
Because Chen Yang was on the speakerphone, Zhang Wei next to him also heard the details.
His irascible temper immediately scolded: “This group of B-things slander others if they can’t do it themselves. If the organizer does this, if every ship returning to Hong Kong does not search it, it will be very unfair to you.”
Chu Mingcheng’s eyes lit up when he heard the words, and he looked at the person in charge of the organizer who looked a little embarrassed. Because the hands-free was turned on, the person in charge obviously heard Zhang Wei’s words.
“Mr. Wang, you heard what my friend said. If you don’t search all the ships returning to Hong Kong like this, I will think that you are deliberately targeting me because I have accomplished something that others think they can’t do?”
“And you just mentioned the installation of monitoring, so does every ship need to install it?”
“Of course, after all the ships come back, they need to install surveillance.”
The person in charge was actually a little helpless. Originally, he didn’t want to pay attention to this matter, but there were too many players calling, and it was a bit exaggerated to count 43 tuna back and forth in three days.
So he had to arrange for someone to come over and check the situation.
In addition, the installation of monitoring is also a decision after discussion by the organizers. Because of the limited number of patrol boats and monitoring staff, and the vast sea, they have not encountered many ships for more than ten days.
In such a situation, the players want to do something, but they really can’t find it.
Therefore, it was finally decided that all ships need to be equipped with surveillance cameras. If the surveillance cameras are broken or something, the contestants will consider themselves unlucky and need to return to the voyage as soon as possible.
If you do not return for more than one day, you will be treated as a withdrawal.
It is the first time to hold a fishing competition, and because of the different domestic conditions, it is difficult to completely copy the foreign specifications.
Therefore, many places have to be explored and perfected step by step, which is also impossible.
Zhang Wei’s words are very suitable. If the competition is to be fair, then all boats should be treated like this.
Chu Mingcheng and Jiang Luoluo were very satisfied when they heard the words, so they were not targeted individually, so they naturally had no objections.
The change of things is not clear to the players who are still in Yuanhai.
Some of the contestants felt more urgent when they saw the second-place result, and Wang Laoliu was the one with the most pressure.
The second time he went to sea, his luck was much worse than the first time. Although he has caught seven tunas so far, they are only yellow fins and the value is not high.
If Chu Mingcheng has no problem this time, then if he is lucky next time, it will be no problem to surpass him in difficulty.
So, Wang Laoliu thought twice and decided to contact his old friends first, which was also his final backup.
In case of necessity, he felt that he needed to prepare some special measures.
He took out his cell phone and dialed a number.
After a short while, the phone was connected, and a very awkward voice came from inside: “Wang Sang.”
Wang Sang, this kind of title sounds like a very small day.
Donghai fishermen are somewhat disharmonious because they are close to Xiaori.
However, there are also many fishermen who have made transnational “friendships” at sea, that is, the fish they catch or catch are sold directly to the fishermen on the other side.
The price of seafood in Xiaotian is generally higher, especially the fish used for sashimi.
Their purchase price is higher than that of domestic fishmongers, so some fishermen will directly trade and sell fish on the sea when they meet fishermen who are living a small life.
It can not only make money, but also clear the space for fishing boats.
Whether the fish can be sold at a good price has a lot to do with the freshness of the fish.
Under normal circumstances, many fishing boats from far seas only come back in a week, so the fish caught in the first two days will naturally not be so fresh, and the price will be much cheaper.
If it is sold directly to Xiaotian at sea, this problem will not arise.
At the beginning of the transaction, both parties actually encountered a lot of troubles, because the units of money are different, and the two parties are not very easy to trade.
Later, I exchanged RMB directly, and it was still cash, so the transaction was much more convenient.
In today’s era, some fishing giants like Wang Laoliu have prepared international accounts, which makes transactions more convenient.
Since Xiaotian can buy fish directly, it can also sell fish.
Wang Laoliu’s follower, of course, intends to buy bluefin tuna directly from Xiaotian when necessary.
Bought it from a young age and then sold it to the organizer, in fact, he didn’t lose much money.
As long as he wins the first place, his income will naturally be much higher than this loss.
However, just because Wang Laoliu thought of this, it doesn’t mean that other related players didn’t think of it.
But these people didn’t know, because some people who were jealous of Chuming City reported that the organizer planned to install two surveillance cameras on their ships.
Originally, it was enough for them to sneak away from the patrol boats and the monitoring staff in speedboats, but now they have to install monitoring, so it will be difficult for some back-ups to implement it!
No, when these people saw the new announcement on the APP, their faces suddenly became uglier than eating shit.
“Convex(艹盘艹)”
Wang Laoliu, who had just hung up the phone and saw the announcement, almost dropped his mobile phone. He had just finished making a phone call, but the organizer just came.
“CNMLGBD, which Saby reported it, isn’t it just looking for trouble?”
The announcement already stated that there was nothing wrong with Chu Mingcheng, so wouldn’t this matter implicate him, a man with a back hand?
Wang Laoliu is very helpless. At present, it seems that he can only use the second hand before returning to the voyage, and widen the gap.
If it is not necessary, he really does not want to use this backhand.
Of course, there are other players who think the same as him, and they all decided to avoid surveillance and go to the boundary line of the high seas to stabilize the wave first.
As for breaking the monitoring while waiting for the transaction, no one will do it unless necessary.
The risk is high, and being found not only loses face, but also may face a ban.
