The shrimp pots were pulled up one by one, and the smiles on the faces of the fishermen became more and more popular.
When the fifty boxes on the first string of cages were pulled up, almost all of them were fully loaded, with a total of sixty or seventy lobsters inside. There is at least one lobster in each box, and as many as two, an absolute bumper harvest!
"We are so lucky!" A fisherman couldn't help but sigh.
The bull glared at him and said: "You are as stupid as a lobster. Are we lucky? No, it is the captain's family magic that is powerful!"
The smoke gun held the pipe in his mouth and nodded in a serious manner: "Well, Bull is a pretty good flatterer!"
After hearing this, the group of people laughed, and the bull said unconvinced: "Isn't it?"
Qin Shiou smiled and patted him on the shoulder to calm down, and said, "I am also lucky. No matter how powerful the spell is, it still depends more on God's will."
In North America, we have this advantage. If we encounter something that is lazily explained or cannot be explained, we can just say "God's will".
Speaking of which, lobsters are indeed quite stupid, or in other words, they are too greedy. In fact, according to Canadian government regulations, these shrimp pots have two openings, one on the front and the other on the side.
In this way, the lobster can get into the cage and escape as long as it is turned around. This is to protect the renewable utilization of lobster resources.
But lobsters that get into the cage rarely escape. They are not good at swimming. They are generally lazy and greedy. They eat the bait with relish in the cage. After eating, they are full, and the rest is rest.
After roughly dividing the lobsters according to size, the five fishermen took out the lobsters and threw them into the cart. Two people were responsible for sending the cart into the ice cabin.
After pulling up a string of cages, Qin Shiou directed Shaq to continue moving to the next one. It took about twenty minutes to pull up a string of cages, and the first harvest was over after an hour and a half.
Two hundred cages, because the position of the lobster cage placed by Qin Shiou was right on their migration route, they achieved a great harvest, harvesting 300 large lobsters in one fell swoop.
Bull asked the smoke gun to estimate the weight, and the smoke gun groaned: "It's about five hundred kilograms."
Hearing his words, the fishermen cheered again. The bull's face turned red and he banged the side of the boat hard and shouted "yeah".
Five hundred kilograms of lobster is equivalent to thousands of pounds. Now the price of lobster has soared. Even if it is wholesaled at the seaport, one pound has risen to more than 20 yuan.
So if you think about it this way, thousands of pounds of lobster is worth 20,000 yuan, and each of them can get more than 500 yuan.
More than five hundred yuan is not much, but it is just a trip to collect the cage. The cages are collected quickly during the day, and can be collected once in half a day. In this way, the cages can be collected about three times a day. Optimistically, one can harvest 1,500 yuan in one day!
Qin Shiou feels that 20,000 yuan is nothing. Even maintaining a Porsche 918 costs more than that.
Seeing that the fishermen were happy, he simply asked them to be happier, waved to keep them quiet, and then said: "This is our first harvest, and I decided to share all the money with you!"
¡°Give us all the money from selling 500 kilograms of lobster?!¡±
"Yes, you allocate it yourself, Smoker and Shaq are responsible."
Qin Shiou nodded firmly and said. After the words fell, the fishermen immediately ran over, grabbed him and carried him on their shoulders.
By this time, the sky was completely bright, and the pale golden sunshine was shining on the sea, and on the faces of these fishermen, which were particularly rough due to wind and rain, they looked particularly gentle.
After harvesting, Qin Shiou immediately directed the shrimp trap to be moved more than ten kilometers forward and then put it into the sea. His target this time was this group of migrating lobsters. Four to five thousand were enough.
With Qin Shiou¡¯s promise, the fishermen worked harder and respected him more.
Shaq reminded: "Boss, we have already discussed the profit distribution standards in advance. You don't need to spend so much money. The prices we started offering are very fair."
Qin Shiou said, I understand, it¡¯s just small money, it¡¯s nothing, as long as everyone is happy.
Of course he did this not only for fun, but also to let these fishermen know that they could make a lot of money by following him, Qin Shiou.
His fishing ground will start harvesting this spring. Qin Shiou now only has four fishermen, which is far from enough. Normally, fish farm owners will temporarily hire fishermen to work during the harvest period, which saves money and ensures efficiency.
Qin Shiou is not prepared to do this. He wants to build a strong team of fishermen with Shaq and Nelson as the core.
Ten people who smoke and smoke may have the same physiqueTheir skills were not the best among the fishermen, but Qin Shiou liked their hearts. These people were willing to help the town repair the church and had good character, which was very precious.
This time out to sea, Qin Shiou will let ten people make a lot of money and then tie them to the fishing boat. This is what capitalist society is like. You have to get your people to make money with you, in order to win over people's hearts.
Putting down the shrimp pot, Qin Shiou led the fishermen to continue working, this time catching haddock.
After the sky cleared up, Qin Shiou discovered that there were many fishing boats on the sea, most of which were shrimp boats. As they drove past, he counted no less than forty boats!
"Are there so many lobster fishermen?" Qin Shiou looked around with a telescope. There were many rubber ball buoys of various sizes and shapes floating on the sea.
The smoker held his pipe in his mouth and said vaguely: "How much is this? The Gulf of St. Lawrence can produce nine thousand tons of lobsters every year! If it hadn't been for the violent storm the day before yesterday, and all the ships would have stayed here, there would have been at least 200,000 lobsters in the entire Gulf of St. Lawrence." Shrimp pot!¡±
"So many?" Qin Shiou gasped. He only had two hundred cages on his boat. According to the ratio, there must be more than a thousand shrimp fishing boats in the Gulf of St. Lawrence.
"No way, who made this thing valuable now?"
"Yeah, when did lobster become so expensive? It used to be eaten by slaves. At that time, as long as they could eat bread, no one would eat it."
¡°At that time, there were laws that stipulated that in order to show humanistic care for slaves, slaves could eat up to five tons a week. Haha, now we are worse off than slaves.¡± The group laughed and shook their heads.
It is true that before the mid-19th century, Americans did not eat lobster. As for Canadians? At that time, Canadians didn¡¯t pay much attention to lobster.
Until the middle of the 19th century, lobster was a food for the poor and those at the bottom of society. At that time, the army had regulations that soldiers could not eat lobster more than twice a week.
At that time, the most common lobster eaters were prisoners in prison, and eating hideous-looking lobsters was considered a punishment for dishonest prisoners.
In addition, the only use of lobster at that time was to make fertilizer and fish food. In the 20th century, Americans began to regard lobster as food, but the treatment was very low and the price was cheaper than canned food with low nutrition.
Qin Shiou feels that the people who really revitalize the lobster market may be Asians - not only the Chinese, but also the Japanese and Koreans have a special liking for this thing. Lobster sashimi has always been the top delicacy in Japanese cuisine. (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
