The fish I catch can be upgraded

Chapter 158 More than 200 million second-class fishing boats
Open the curtains, it is still cloudy.

Feeling sore all over, Chu Mingcheng lay on the bed again and didn't want to move.

After fishing and hunting yesterday, he was fine, but he was exhausted when he finally got back to the boat with the fish.

That amount of exercise is already big enough, and I even go for a morning jog.

It's just that the biological clock has formed a habit to wake him up early in the morning.

He doesn't plan to go to sea today. He wants to sail to the shipyard and buy a speargun by the way.

Thinking of spearguns, Chu Mingcheng couldn't lie down again, so he went to hug his laptop and opened it to search for some information on making spearguns.

Wooden spearguns can be made by yourself. Of course, the novice's craftsmanship is definitely not good. It needs continuous practice and consumes a lot of wood to make a speargun.

He doesn't go to sea every day, and Chu Mingcheng thinks that he can add a hobby and become a small carpenter in the rest of the time.

In the process of understanding, he finally understood why the wooden gun was the most recommended for fishing and hunting.

First, most of the production of aluminum alloy and carbon spearguns is empty tube structure, so it needs to be watertight, and the two ends of the speargun should be plugged with plugs, so as to avoid the negative buoyancy of the speargun caused by seawater entering.

At the same time, the tubular structure of the aluminum alloy or carbon speargun is designed to achieve the maximum strength with the minimum material, and is generally designed as an ellipse or circular tube.

The disadvantage of this is that it is difficult to increase the buoyancy without increasing the thickness of the speargun above and below.

With experience in fishing and hunting, Chu Mingcheng knew very well the benefits of a speargun having sufficient buoyancy.

Underwater speargun needs to move parallel to aim according to the movement of fish, the resistance of water is much greater than that of air, and speargun must overcome resistance to move.

Spearguns are relatively long, and the buoyancy will be lighter, making it easier to maintain stability when aiming.

Secondly, the shape is also very important, after all, the proper shape can reduce the resistance of water when translating.

This wooden gun can directly make the gun body flat and reduce water resistance.

Teak is generally used to make wooden guns. The first is Burmese old teak. The disadvantage is that the price is relatively high.

Secondly, you can use mahogany, the cost is about one-third of teak, which is very suitable for Chu Mingcheng to practice.

And Africa and America have the highest quality, while Oceania has the worst quality and lowest price.

The last type is red sandalwood, but it is not the priceless kind, but African red sandalwood, which is also cheaper than teak.

Therefore, if Chu Mingcheng wants to buy a speargun first, he can choose a large speargun made of old Burmese teak wood. The price must be high, but the practicality is also high.

The remaining two kinds of wood can be purchased and practiced by yourself. If you make a suitable one in the future, you can eliminate the carbon gun.

After Chu Mingcheng learned about it, he searched for wooden guns on the Internet, but he couldn't find a suitable wooden gun at all.

He wants to hunt large fish, not that the longer the speargun, the better.

Spearguns are not chosen this way, as long as the length of the gun body is suitable for your height.

For example, in Chuming City, one-meter projectiles or 1.2-meter projectiles will do.

But if he wants the fish arrow to hit farther, he just needs to increase the number of rubber bands and the length of the string.

The larger the fish you hunt, the longer the distance, the longer the speargun line and the thicker and more rubber bands you need.

This kind of speargun with thick and many rubber bands is not suitable for people with weak strength, as it cannot be pulled.

For example, his strength is not small, and people who will become bigger and bigger in the future are very suitable.

If Chuming City wants to hunt large fish, it needs six thick rubber bands.

He was going to ask Lu Zheqiang from Qiongzhou later, he was the one who bought the carbon gun before, and there must be a channel to customize a wooden gun.

Not paying attention to how much time passed, Chu Mingcheng heard the sound of the electronic lock downstairs being opened, and then he heard footsteps.

He quickly covered the laptop and put it aside, then immediately lay down and pretended to be asleep.

According to his idea, Jiang Luoluo would open the door, come to his bedside and wake him up for breakfast, then he might have a chance to make a sneak attack.

It turned out that she did open the door gently, but unfortunately no one came in, and when she saw that he was sleeping, she closed it gently again.
Chu Mingcheng was a little dumbfounded, the script was wrong!
It seems that he felt that he was tired and let him have a good rest so he didn't bother.

Hearing footsteps leaving downstairs and the door closing again, he sat up with a wry smile.

Forget it, get up first!
As for Brother Neptune and the others, they left last night because of the gentian grouper.

The two recorded videos were edited by Brother Neptune, and will be released within the next week by the three parties. By then, the popularity of Chu Mingcheng's account should have greatly increased.

Going out to Jiang Luoluo's house, she was a little surprised to see Chu Mingcheng coming over: "Did I disturb you just now?"

"What's bothering me?"

Chu Mingcheng was in a daze, with a black question mark above his head.

"Uh, I went to your house just now. I wanted to ask you to have breakfast, but I didn't disturb you because you were sleeping deeply."

Jiang Luoluo looked at him suspiciously while talking, after all, he had already washed up after he came back not long ago.

It was hard not to make her wonder if he had woken up when she passed by.

"Really? I didn't even know you were here"

Chu Mingcheng, with an innocent face, spread his hands. If she suspects that she is pretending to be asleep, then she might not have a chance to get the wake-up call in the future.

"Okay!" Jiang Luoluo didn't care, and went to take out the hot breakfast in the kitchen.

After breakfast, she will start preparing for a new dance today, so Chu Mingcheng can only set off alone.

I drove to the pier, then drove to the shipyard, and asked about the possibility of installing a winch or a crane on the lower front deck.

The salesman at the reception looked at the boat and said in surprise, "Your fishing boat shouldn't need these two, right?"

From the design point of view, this ship did not consider these.

It is an offshore fishing boat, why do you need these big things?

Chu Mingcheng smiled reservedly: "Yesterday, I got a gentian grouper weighing more than 200 kilograms. If there were not so many people on the boat, I couldn't pull it out myself."

"And I also often fish and hunt. If there is a winch or crane, then it doesn't take much effort to get the catch to the boat."

The salesman suddenly fell back tactically. For some reason, he suddenly felt an aura of overpowering the king.

Finally, at Chu Mingcheng's request, he called in a technician and asked if a winch or crane could be installed on the ship.

Of course, a winch or a crane can be installed, but according to the technician, since it is to pull a big fish, a small retractable fixed hydraulic crane like his for a ship would be better.

The winch should be placed on the steps at the back of the reef opening on the front deck, and the hydraulic crane can be installed in the center of the rear deck close to the external hanger, which does not block people very much.

The boom can be stowed when not in use at ordinary times, and the boom can be extended when needed.

The boats in Chuming City can only be equipped with a crane that can catch [-] kilograms, which means [-] kilograms, and it doesn’t need a big one.

The price is also very cheap, only three thousand and five thousand for installation, and five thousand for better quality.

Chu Mingcheng thought it would cost [-] to [-] yuan, but it turned out that the price was much cheaper than he expected, so he directly asked for [-] yuan.

At this time, the salesman said: "If you are going to fish for big fish, I suggest you buy at least a second-class fishing boat."

"The ship has a special refrigerated cabin, and it is strong against wind and waves and has a high battery life, so it can go to farther sea areas. Your small boat can only be driven in offshore waters. I guess your crane will not be used too many times."

"After all, a two-hundred-jin big grouper is hard to come by, isn't it?"

"Did you misunderstand me?" Chu Mingcheng laughed.

"What misunderstanding?" The salesman was taken aback when he heard the words.

"Do you think I'm someone who can afford a second-class fishing boat?" Chu Mingcheng said confidently.

80 can only buy such a small boat. Wouldn’t it cost several million for a second-class fishing boat over 16 meters?
"Uh, you may have misunderstood. The second-class or even first-class fishing boats, the economical ones, are actually not as expensive as you think."

The salesman explained with a smile, and then pointed to the east side of the shipyard, "Our shipyard has recycled a 78-foot Class II fishing boat. Do you want to go and have a look? The price is definitely beyond your expectations."

"Even if you don't buy it now, it's okay to know about it in advance! Anyway, it will take some time to install the crane, why don't you go and have a look?"

With only more than 20 yuan on him, the old father in the family has not repaid the savings for most of his life, Chu Mingcheng really has no plans to change the ship.

But as the salesman said, what does it matter if you understand it.

So he followed the salesman to the pier on the east side of the shipyard, and saw a large white fishing boat.

The salesman took him to the boat and began to introduce: "This is a 78-foot second-class fishing boat, which can go [-] nautical miles to catch deep-sea fish."

"This boat is 23.8 meters long and 5.06 meters wide, and it was launched in 2020."

After knowing the basic information of the ship, Chu Mingcheng followed the salesman to the interior.

As soon as you enter the door, the kitchen is on the left and the bathroom is on the right.

There is one thing to say, the larger the boat, the larger the space, so the size of the kitchen and bathroom looks the same as his home.

Going further inside is the salon area. The layout is the same as the sofa leisure area of ​​the fishing boat in Chuming City. It has a large space. If the sofas on both sides are crowded together, it can seat 20 people.

Then there is the cab, which only has a single seat. Obviously, this nearly 24-meter boat only needs one person to drive it.

As long as the boat does not exceed 24 meters, Chu Mingcheng's driver's license can be used.

Therefore, domestic fishing boats are basically stuck at the length of 78 feet.

Equipped with a domestically produced [-]-horsepower inboard engine, the maximum speed is only [-] knots, and the cruising speed is only [-] knots.

The cruising speed is also the economical speed, which is a speed that consumes less fuel.

But for such a big ship, the economic speed of fifteen knots is actually enough.

Below the cab is the bedroom, a total of four rooms.

But the room is very simple. In the real sense, there is only one tatami mat, which is not like a room at all.

There are three single rooms and a large bunk that can sleep twelve people.

Seeing this, half of Chu Mingcheng's interest in this ship disappeared.

He wants to buy a big boat, and he doesn't need so many rooms, and the salon area is too big and not practical.

Then they came to the front deck. The back deck of this ship is not very spacious, and the main space is on the front deck.

There is a freezer in the bow, but it is only five cubic meters, which is too small.The live fish cabin is not big, and it is placed under the front window of the cab, which is external.

After learning this, Chu Mingcheng shook his head.

Based on the fact that his plug-in is getting stronger and stronger, this ship is currently usable, but it will be eliminated soon.

In the future, we will definitely specialize in large-scale tuna and swordfish. What can such a small refrigerated compartment do?

Moreover, the second-class fishing boat is not his favorite. If he changes boats, he will definitely choose the first-class fishing boat directly, which can go to the high seas.

The battery life is not bad, there are 200 nautical miles, and the external machine has only been used for more than [-] hours, maybe the owner can’t afford to burn oil?

"How about it? This ship is only about 220 million. Isn't it surprising and exciting?" After the sales introduction, he smiled.

Chu Mingcheng was a little cautious when he heard that it was only over 200 million yuan. After all, the price was much lower than he had imagined.

But soon, he shook his head: "This boat is not very practical for me, and the storage space for the catch is too small. This boat is obviously used for chartering people to fish, and I personally don't do this service .”

"Secondly, this ship is not of the same class. It is a pity that it is so big."

If it is a class, don't look at it is only nearly 24 meters, its anti-wind and wave performance has been improved by several levels.

As long as you don't encounter extreme weather, it's perfectly fine to go to the high seas.

But in extreme weather, most ships will be very dangerous!
　In the morning, there are many things in the company, and there is no way to modify the chapter by fishing, so I will publish a chapter first.Follow-up will be finished before 12:30!
