    Twelve hours after leaving St. Johns, the Harvest entered the Cabot Strait at night.

    ??In fact, from a straight-line distance perspective, St. John's is not far from the Gulf of St. Lawrence. What separates it is the east-west length of Newfoundland, which is at most 400 kilometers.

    But driving a boat is different from flying an airplane. From St. John's to the Gulf of St. Lawrence by water, you first need to drive 350 kilometers southwest to Glace Bay, which is the entrance to the Cabot Strait.

    Then, go directly north from Glace Bay, and after about 500 kilometers, you will officially enter the Gulf of St. Lawrence.

    The Harvest is an ordinary fishing boat, with a speed of less than twenty knots. Unlike the cruiser or the Seagull trawl yacht, which can speed up and go crazy, this boat can only slowly sway on the water.

    After nightfall, Qin Shiou summoned the crew to the captain's room for a meeting.

    The length of the Harvest is fifteen meters. From this point of view, it can only be regarded as a small fish boat. There is a gap between it and the Puhai fishing boat, which is often fifty or sixty meters long.  But Qin Shiou is a modern fishing boat built at a high price. It is of average length but has three levels of cabins in height.

    ??From the appearance, the Harvest is not long like most fishing boats, but looks like a cube with a relatively high center of gravity. It floats on the sea like a tumbler and sways when the wind blows.

    But this is a fishing boat made using the latest shipbuilding technology. It is a tumbler. Although it is easier to shake than ordinary fishing boats, it has a strong ability to withstand wind and waves.

    Moreover, the most dangerous thing after a fishing boat encounters a storm is not the strong wind, but the wave crest. If a boat is too long and too short, once it falls between the two wave crests, the wave crests will exert force from different heights and can directly knock the ship off.  Impacted into two parts.

    The fishing boat is not a warship, and the steel plate is not strong enough, so it will suffer a lot when it encounters wave crests.

    Another advantage of this design is that it increases the crew's activity space. The crew of most fishing boats can only live in the cabin below the deck. The Harvest lives on the upper floor. The cabins below are all ice tanks, water storage rooms and  Storage bin with more space.

    Qin Shiou arranged for Shaq, Yanqiang and six crew members to sleep in a room on the first floor of the deck. There were two people in each room, so there were exactly four rooms.  There are two large rooms on the second floor, one for the three fishermen and one for him and Ivoson.

    There is only one largest room on the third floor, which can be used as a restaurant, conference room and activity room.

    Although the Harvest is only 200 tons in size, it is actually designed as an ocean-going fishing vessel and can go deep into the ocean for fishing.

    "However, the rated crew number of this ship is ten, and now it has exceeded the cost by three people. It can only be like this, and it is not a big deal.

    The sea breeze was stronger at night, and the howling wind rocked the fishing boat on the sea. Except for Shaq who was working in the cab, everyone else entered the restaurant on the top floor for a meeting.

    Qin Shiou first introduced himself, and then explained the goal of this voyage, which was to catch lobsters and queen crabs. If there were schools of cod, he could also take the opportunity to catch a batch. Then he talked about the issue of profit distribution.

    There are generally two ways for fishermen to work on fishing boats. One is the investment type, where you pay part of the sea expenses and ship depreciation expenses, and you are treated as a shareholder, and you can be distributed according to the dividends; the other is the part-time type, where the captain spends money to hire,  How much a day's wages are, and how much harvest you can get from going to sea like this has nothing to do with the fisherman.

    The Harvest adopts a compromise profit distribution method. As long as they go to sea, everyone can get a basic salary of two hundred yuan per day.  In addition, he will also use 28% of the final income as bonuses and distribute them to ten people. As for how to distribute them among these ten people, it is the smoke gun that is responsible, and they trust the smoke gun.

    The two parties have already negotiated these issues before they were brought on board. What Qin Shiou has to do is to emphasize it again to prevent some people from not having the spirit of contract and saying more after harvest.

    After finishing speaking, Qin Shiou asked the fishermen to discuss their opinions.

    The fishermen discussed in low voices for a while, and finally let the smoke gun speak on behalf of them: "We are completely satisfied, boss, this is a very fair price. I hope we can catch more fish this time out to sea."

    Speaking of this, Qin Shiou is full of confidence. He has the big bug of Poseidon Consciousness in his hand. If he still can't return with a full harvest, then no one can make money in the Gulf of St. Lawrence.

    After discussing the profit distribution issue, Qin Shiou asked Ivoson to distribute the prepared crew manual to everyone. He emphasized the rules on the ship.

    Seeing this crew manual, the group was stunned, because the first article said: Completely obey the captain¡¯s decision!

    Look at Article 2: You must obey the captain¡¯s decision!

    Article 3: Articles 1 and 2 of the Fishing Boat Rules must be fully and compulsorily accepted!

      The crew members were dumbfounded. When Yanqian saw such crew rules for the first time, he stammered: "Ship, ship, captain, what does this mean?"

    Qin Shiou shrugged and said easily: "That's what you see. If you choose to board my fishing boat, you must completely obey my instructions. No questions are allowed. Do you have any questions?"

    A bearded man stood up and was about to speak when Yan Qian waved him to sit down and sighed: "No, we don't, boss, we completely believe you."

    Although he said this, the group of people obviously did not think so in their hearts, and they all looked at Qin Shiou with questioning eyes.

    Qin Shiou let them see, anyway, the final facts will prove everything. He will not allow anyone to challenge his authority, but before the iron facts happen, he will allow these people to doubt his ability.

    When the meeting was dismissed, a clever young man asked: "Boss, when we have questions, can we ask you for answers?"

    Qin Shiou laughed. This kid found the only loophole in the rules. He nodded and said, "Yes, I am not a tyrant. I accept doubts, but you can only question me, but you cannot resist my orders. This is the bottom line!"

    As soon as he spoke, the bearded man who had been pushed down stood up again and asked in a rough voice: "I want to know, boss, where will we cast the net? How many times have you been to the Gulf of St. Lawrence?"  "

    Qin Shiou smiled and said: "I haven't been there many times, but I know enough about it. As for the place where shrimp traps are deployed, you will know this after you arrive in the Gulf of St. Lawrence."

    "But I want to know now. I think we, as your helpers, are qualified to know!" The bearded man said excitedly.

    Qin Shiou said: "This is your opinion, not the fact. Okay, crew, go and have a rest. That's the end of today's meeting."

    Other fishermen obviously have this question too. After all, they get 20% of the profit bonus, and the final catch is closely related to their income.  In their eyes, Qin Shiou was a rich man who didn't care about his income. They relied on their income to support their families, so they had to care about this.

    Therefore, the fishermen did not move and were all looking at Qin Shiou.

    The bearded man said: "Boss, we are all brothers and know each other well. No one will reveal the address you selected to release the cage, so you should feel free to tell us."

    The fishermen nodded together and stared at Qin Shiou closely, including the pipe.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
