Chapter 22 Maiden Voyage (seeking a monthly ticket)

The next day, Ye Yuan got up, stood on the deck and looked at the sea.

The blue sky, white clouds, beside the fishing boat, flocks of seagulls follow the fishing boat.

Ye Yuan used the ability of the second layer of "Water Control Art" to see the situation below the fishing boat.

A school of small fish swam past the fishing boat, Ye Yuan really wanted to catch a net, but seeing the size of the school of fish, he decided to forget it.

The first catch of fish in your life must be off to a good start, and the fishing boat will move on.

Although he found a lot of fish chasing the fishing boat, Ye Yuan was still very dissatisfied, the sea fish was not dense enough, and it was a bit difficult to catch.

"Aren't you going to use the net? I think the catch here is okay." Ye Zhuang asked beside him.

Ye Yuan just shook his head, after driving for more than twenty minutes, Ye Yuan finally ordered to cast the net.

The equipment of this refitted fishing boat is all automated. Although there are only a few people, many tasks are done mechanically.

After dragging for half an hour, Ye Yuan ordered the net to be set up.The mixer rotates, slowly raising the fishing net with the sizzling sound, which shows that the wire rope is extremely hard at the moment, and the stern of the fishing boat is obviously sinking.

"This time there should be a bumper harvest." Ye Zhuang said excitedly from the side, Ding Er looked at the sea expressionlessly, and Ding Yi was still driving the fishing boat.

The fishing net was slowly lifted by the crane, and a large bag of sea fish appeared in front of several people. The net weighed more than [-] catties at least.

In the fishing nets, many barracudas.

The barracuda has a slender body, a cylindrical front, a flat rear, a short and wide head, a flat back, and a blunt snout.The largest barracuda can grow up to 1.8 meters long.

Barracuda is not considered high-end seafood, and it only costs 15-20 yuan a catty in the market.The best time to eat barracuda is spring, and it is already early summer, which is a little bit out of season.

At this time, the fishing net had been put on the deck, and as the bottom rope was loosened, the barracuda, which had been motionless before, became fierce at this moment.Trying to escape back into the sea by jumping.Especially those big guys over one meter have a posture of flying out.

Ye Yuan and the others hurried forward and took the big barracuda to the cold storage first.As the one-meter-long barracudas entered the cold storage, there were only a few small fish left on the deck, and many of the small fish that hadn't grown up were returned to the sea by Ye Yuan, this is also the fishermen's rule.

After working for more than three hours, all the fish catches have been simply sorted out.

There are more than 100 barracudas over one meter in length, and 200 barracudas in the half-meter to one-meter range. These have a catch of more than 8000 catties.

Ye Yuan really wanted to exchange these catches for points immediately, because Ye Zhuang was still on the boat, so he suppressed his desire.

The fishing boat continued to move forward, Ye Yuan asked Ye Zhuang to go back to rest, and ordered Ding Er to prepare lunch.

Ye Yuan passed another three days at sea.

In these three days, the nets were lowered several times, and the fish were caught every time.The most fish caught was 14000 jins at one time, and now Ye Yuan's boat has nearly 20 tons of fish caught.

Ye Yuan took the map and found that he was already very close to the open sea. The sea depth here should be more than 1000 meters. He ordered Ding Yi to stop the boat. Ye Zhuang was arranged by Ye Yuan to sort the fish in the fish warehouse. The goods are good, but they are very miscellaneous. There are all kinds of fish. Ye Zhuang and Ding Er need to sort them for a while. During this time, Ye Yuan plans to go to the sea to have a look.

Ye Yuan entered the sea, the images of the surrounding sea area were all reflected in his mind, various creatures flashed in his mind,

When he came to a sea area with lush aquatic plants, all kinds of herbivorous creatures were abundant here. He took a look, and continued to swim far away without seeing anything special.

At this time, Ye Yuan has reached more than 500 meters under the sea, and he doesn't feel any discomfort at all. There are large and small coral groups growing on the bottom of the sea, including a deep red coral.That should be red coral.

The diameter of red coral is generally 0.5mm to 2cm, and each individual has 8 feathery tentacles.Diaphragms 8 unpaired, diaphragm muscles grow ventrally, septum filaments are single-lobed.

There is only one mouth groove, which is located on the ventral surface.Bones are mostly in the body, or extend to the body surface after they occur in the body.It has a calcareous axial bone, which is branched like a tree, but not on one plane, and the bones are pale pink to dark red.

In addition to the axial bone, there are calcareous spicules distributed in the middle glue layer, and they often live together with reef-building corals.The bones are dense in texture and bright in color, and are often used as gemstones or carving materials. The ancient Chinese emperor's court beads were made of red coral.

It can also be used as medicine, which has the effect of calming shock and improving eyesight.Due to a large number of mining, the number has decreased sharply, and it has been listed as a national first-class protected animal.

Ye Yuan didn't pick the corals here and continued to swim down. I don't know how far he swam. There are a lot of tall seaweeds and some green ribbon plants. The trees on it are even taller.

Suddenly, several kinds of lights appeared not far away, colorful, Ye Yuan immediately swam over, and after getting closer, he found that it was a kind of sparkling glass crystal.

"These are crystals, right?" Ye Yuan thought.

Crystal is not a valuable item, many small handicrafts are made of crystal.

"Niu Niu must like such shiny things,"

Anyway, it's been a long time since I've been down, so I should go back, and take a few back to give to the little girl.

He took some that he thought were the most beautiful and returned to the fishing boat.

After he boarded the boat, Ding Yi handed him a towel and looked at the "crystals" in Ye Yuan's hands.

"Boss, where did you find the tourmaline? It's a good thing."

Ding Yi and the others are really humane, sometimes Ye Yuan can't tell whether they are robots or real humans.

When Ding Yi said that these are tourmalines in his hands, Ye Yuan also remembered some introductions about tourmalines.

Tourmaline is the most colorful of all gemstones.Because tourmaline is a complex borosilicate mineral.

Among them, metal ions such as iron, magnesium, lithium, manganese, and aluminum can replace each other, and the difference in the content of each ion will directly affect the color and type of tourmaline.

Ferrous tourmalines are black and green;

Magnesium-containing tourmaline shows yellow or brown;
Lithium, manganese, cesium tourmalines show rose red, pink, red or blue;

Chromium tourmalines show a dark green color.

Among them, azure blue and bright rose red tourmaline are the top grades.

Sometimes in the same tourmaline crystal, due to the uneven distribution of components, it often leads to color changes, and tourmalines appear in two-color tourmaline, multi-color tourmaline or inner-infrared green watermelon tourmaline and other types.

Thinking of this, Ye Yuan looked at the several tourmalines in his hand, one of them was blue, the other was black, and the other was pink.

"I don't know how much these tourmalines can sell for. When I get back to Neihai and the mobile phone has signal, I'll ask the boss." Ye Yuan whispered.

Seeing Ye Zhuang come out, Ye Yuan handed the tourmaline to Ding Yi and asked him to put it away first.

"Captain, sorting is over"

Ye Zhuang has been calling Captain Ye Yuan since he got on the ship, Ye Yuan is also very satisfied with this.

"Let's go to the high seas to cast a net. After all, we've come to the high seas. It's shameful to go back without casting a net." As soon as Ding started the boat, the fishing boat sailed towards the high sea at a constant speed.
