Chapter 435

Shrimp cages were pulled up one by one, and the fishermen smiled more and more.

The 50 boxes of the first cage string were pulled up and almost all came back full, with a total of 60 or 70 lobsters in it. There is at least one lobster in each box, and there are two more. It's an absolute harvest!

"We are so lucky!" A fisherman couldn't help sighing.

The bull stared at him and said, "you are as stupid as a lobster. Are we lucky? No, it's the captain's family magic! "

With a pipe in his mouth, he nodded seriously and said, "well, the bull flattered well!"

After hearing this, everyone laughed. The bull said unconvinced, "isn't it?"

Qin Shiou smiled, patted him on the shoulder, signaled not to be excited, and said, "I'm also lucky. No matter how powerful the spell is, it depends more on God's will."

In North America, there is this advantage. If you encounter anything lazy or unexplainable, just say 'God's will'.

Lobsters are really stupid, or they are too greedy. In fact, according to the regulations of the Canadian government, these shrimp cages have two openings, one on the front and the other on the side.

In this way, the lobster can escape from the cage as long as it turns around. This is to protect the renewable utilization of lobster resources.

But the lobsters that get into the cage rarely escape. They are not good at swimming. They are lazy and greedy as a whole. They eat the bait with relish in the cage. When they finish eating, they will be full, and the rest is rest.

The lobsters are roughly divided according to their size. Five fishermen constantly take out the lobsters and throw them into the cart. Two people are responsible for sending the cart into the ice cabin.

After pulling a string of cages, Qin Shiou commanded shack to continue to move to the next one, so that he could pull a string of cages in about 20 minutes, and the first harvest was over in an hour and a half.

Two hundred cages, because the shrimp cages placed by Qin Shiou were just on their migration route, they achieved a bumper harvest and harvested 300 small lobsters at once.

The bull asked the cigarette gun to estimate its weight. The cigarette gun pondered, "it's about 500 kilograms."

Hearing his words, the fishermen cheered again. The bull's face turned red, pounded the ship's side and shouted 'yeah'.

500 kilograms of lobster is thousands of pounds. Now the price of lobster has soared. Even if it is wholesale outside the harbor, it has risen to more than 20 yuan a pound.

In this way, thousands of pounds of lobster is 20000 yuan, and each of them can get more than 500 yuan.

More than 500 yuan is not much, but this is just a trip to collect the cage. During the day, you can collect the cage once in half a day. In this way, you can collect it about three times a day. Optimistic, you can harvest 1500 yuan a day!

Qin Shiou feels that 20000 yuan is nothing, but more than that for the maintenance of the Porsche 918.

Seeing that the fishermen were happy, he simply made them happier, waved to make them quiet, and then said, "this is our first harvest. I decided to give you all the money!"

"Give us all the money for 500 kilograms of lobster?!"

"Yes, you distribute it yourself, and smoke guns and Shaq are responsible."

Qin Shiou nodded determinedly and said. The voice fell. The fishermen immediately ran to catch him and carry him to their shoulders.

At this time, the day was completely bright, and the light golden sunshine sprinkled on the sea and on the rougher faces of these fishermen because of the wind and rain.

After the harvest, Qin Shiou immediately commanded to move the shrimp cage forward for more than ten kilometers and continue to put it into the sea. His goal this time is this group of migratory lobsters, four or five thousand is enough.

With Qin Shiou's promise, the fishermen worked harder and respected him more.

Shack reminded: "boss, we have discussed the profit distribution standard in advance. You don't have to take out so much money. The price we started to give is very reasonable."

Qin Shiou said I understand. It's all small money. It's nothing. Just be happy.

Of course, he did this not only for fun, but also to let these fishermen know that they can make a lot of money by following him.

At the beginning of this spring, his fishing ground will begin to harvest. Qin Shiou now has only four fishermen, which is far from enough. Normally, the owner of the fishing ground will temporarily hire fishermen to work during the harvest, which can save money and ensure efficiency.

Qin Shiou is not prepared to do this. He wants to build a strong fisherman team with shack and Nelson as the core.

The ten smokers may not have the best physique and skills among the fishermen, but Qin Shiou sees their heart. These people are willing to volunteer to help the town repair the church. Their character is very good, which is very precious.

This time, Qin Shiou will make ten people make a lot of money, and then bind them to fishing boats. Capitalist society is like this. You have to let your people make money with you in order to win the hearts of the people.

Put down the shrimp cage, Qin Shiou led the fishermen to continue their work. This time, he still caught haddock.

After the weather cleared up, Qin Shiou found that there were many fishing boats on the sea, most of them shrimp boats. He drove all the way. He counted no less than 40 boats!

"So many lobsters?" Qin Shiou looked around with a telescope. There were many ball buoys of different sizes and shapes floating on the sea.

The smoker said vaguely with his pipe in his mouth, "what's this? Every year, St. Lawrence Bay can produce 9000 tons of lobster! If it hadn't been for the storm the day before yesterday, all the ships would have stayed here. There would be at least 200000 shrimp cages in the whole St. Lawrence Bay! "

"So much?" Qin Shiou took a breath. There were only 200 cages on his boat. According to the scale, there must be more than 1000 shrimp boats on St. Lawrence Bay.

"No way, who makes this thing valuable now?"

"Yes, when did lobster become so expensive? In the past, it was for slaves. At that time, no one ate this as long as they could eat bread. "

"At that time, there was a law that slaves could eat up to five tons a week in order to show their humanistic care for slaves. Ha ha, now we are not even as good as slaves. " The party shook their heads with laughter.

Indeed, before the mid-19th century, Americans did not eat lobster. As for Canadians? At that time, Canadians didn't pay attention to lobsters.

Until the mid-19th century, lobster was the food of the poor and the bottom of society. At that time, the army stipulated that soldiers could not eat lobster more than twice a week.

At that time, most prisoners in prison ate lobster. Eating lobster with ferocious face was regarded as 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 use lobster as food, but the treatment was very low and the price was cheaper than low nutritional cans.

Qin Shiou thinks that Asians may really revitalize the lobster market - not only Chinese, but also Japanese and Koreans love this thing. Lobster sashimi has always been the top delicacy in Japanese cuisine.
