Chapter 257： Fishing in the wild river, encountering crocodiles

Chapter 257 Fishing in wild rivers, encountering crocodiles

Backing to the pier, Noah felt both pain and happiness. Chu Mingcheng caught king crabs so fast that he didn't even have time to sell them.

"Cheng, maybe you can rest for a few days, and go to sea after I sell this batch of goods."

Chu Mingcheng immediately shook his head and refused: "No, those crab catchers have been troubling me all the time, I plan to continue to set off tomorrow, and after I have caught the remaining 3,000 catties, I will leave here to do the bounty mission .”

"To prevent those crab catchers from jumping over the wall in a hurry and doing more excessive things."

"We left earlier, which is relatively safer. So I suggest that you sell all the king crabs cheaper, and then go to the bounty mission with me."

Noah pondered for a while when he heard the words, and nodded: "You are right, I actually got some information in the past few days."

"The most reckless guy in this group of crabbers is still recuperating after being slapped by you, and the rest of the crabbers haven't heard of anyone who would do anything more extreme, so I thought you were safe for the time being. .”

"But now it seems that I was negligent. Let alone whether the big boss will retaliate against you after he recovers, even other people may not do some impulsive things."

Noah is not really worried about his safety. The main conflict is on Chuming City. He is just a seafood vendor.

Fortunately, Chuming City does not live in Melbourne, and this time the king crabs are sold out and leave as soon as possible. Naturally, this group of people can't trouble him.

The main thing is to make a time difference so that the other party is caught off guard.

And that night, Chu Mingcheng was invited by the civil servants who came to the door for questioning, and the question was naturally about the crab cage rope being cut.

He naturally didn't know anything about this kind of thing that seemed so bizarre to normal people, and he didn't have anything to do after asking.

Suspects also have to pay attention to evidence, and the two captains of the crab catchers have never suspected Chu Mingcheng themselves.

Walking out of the police station, Noah was waiting outside in his car.

When he saw Chu Mingcheng coming up, he immediately asked concerned: "Are you okay, what happened?"

"It's nothing, it's just some small conflicts with the crab catchers, they just asked some questions." Chu Mingcheng skipped it lightly, he 'didn't know' about the crab cage rope being cut, and he wouldn't say it from him. talk about it.

This kind of perfunctory attitude is completely different from that in the inside, making Noah see that the other party is hiding something.

But he didn't ask any more questions, but decided to quickly sell the king crabs cheaply, and then left Melbourne to avoid the limelight.

For Chu Mingcheng, the experience of the emperor crab this time made him feel very tired.

I didn’t expect that cheating can solve the local fishery policy, but there are still locals who make all kinds of troubles.

It seems that we should pay more attention to using this ability in the future, especially in countries where individuals can own hot weapons, so he should take it easy.

Two days later, Chu Mingcheng returned to the pier with more than 3,000 catties of king crab and delivered it to Noah.

This trip to Melbourne is almost coming to an end, and the last crabbing boat did not follow him.

However, a fishery boat appeared in the waters full of emperor crabs, and seemed to be investigating the situation where the rope was broken.

Chu Mingcheng saw it from a distance and passed by in a straight line without stopping, then turned a big bay to go to the sperm whale, and caught hundreds of catties of king crab.

But this efficiency was too slow, so late at night he went to the place where there were 200 sinking crab cages to take another look.

Fortunately, the Fishery Administration had already left this time, so he quickly grabbed his quota and then left.

These crab cages must be salvaged. If left alone, many king crabs will die every year.

But it has nothing to do with Chu Mingcheng. He sold all the king crabs to Noah when he returned to the port.

After deducting the cost and paying the rent of the boat, his account balance just exceeded 500,000 Australian dollars, reaching 520,000.

If it is converted into Dayang, it is almost two and a half million yuan, which is probably enough for the down payment of a small villa in Xiamen City.

But whether to buy a villa, Chu Mingcheng is not sure yet.

For young people, it is more convenient to live in the city center, and the villas are generally in the suburbs, so it is a bit troublesome to go back and forth.

I just don’t know if the large flat with its own indoor swimming pool is expensive. He personally thinks that this type of room is likely to be more expensive than ordinary villas.

After all, there are too many factors to consider in order to bring a swimming pool on the flat floor.

Shaking his head, Chu Mingcheng stopped thinking about it for now, and went back to discuss it with Jiang Luoluo when the time came.

Currently make money first, more than two million may seem like a lot, but in fact, if you really want to do something, the money is far from enough.

It will take at least three days for Noah to process the king crab. After a day's rest in Chu Mingcheng, he plans to go to northern Australia to apply for a hunting license.

The bounty task he has to do is to hunt and kill alligators.

Sea crocodile is also a kind of aquatic product, so it is no problem for Chuming City to apply for a hunting license if there are cheats.

The natural environment of Australia is so good that basically most creatures appear in this country, and they are prone to flooding.

The currently flooded crocodiles have also become a headache for Australian city governments.

Originally, the crocodile was on the verge of extinction, but after arriving in Australia, it was out of control, and the number directly increased by 250,000.

Therefore, the Australian city government issued a bounty for hunters to hunt and kill this vicious behemoth.

Of course, there are many professional hunters in Australia, and the crocodile hunters are naturally the crocodile hunters.

Professional counterparts need to apply for a hunting license.

An application is required before hunting, and the number of hunting is also limited. There is also a need to video the whole process from the discovery of the alligator to the completion of the hunting, and hunting of other animals is not allowed.

In addition, the crocodile eggs found can be collected and sold, but there is a limit to the number every year.

When Chu Mingcheng learned about these restrictions, he immediately frowned.

He was a little disgusted by the whole videotape, and then he thought about it again. He would not go diving with a crocodile, so there is nothing to expose.

The only thing that may be exposed is his strength, which doesn't seem to matter.

Don't look at Chu Mingcheng beating the sixgill shark so fiercely before, the main reason is that this kind of shark is not fierce enough, and secondly, the flexibility is not so high.

If it was a great white shark of three or four meters, one would be fine, but if there was any more, he would definitely turn around and run away.

The crocodile is no smaller than an adult great white shark at all, it can grow to four to five meters long, and the limit can grow to seven meters.

Facing this kind of crocodile with high defense and thick blood, he only has a small speargun in his hand, how dare he dive to provoke it?

However, a four-meter alligator can be sold for more than 20,000 Australian dollars, which is worth almost 100,000 oceans.

Secondly, it seems that the Australian city government will also give some incentives. However, after the number of crocodiles killed reaches 1,200 in a year, they can no longer hunt.

It is only the first half of the year, so there is no need to worry about the quota being full.

Secondly, crocodile skin can be processed into bags. Girlfriends, mothers, and mother-in-law seem to lack crocodile leather bags.

I just don’t know if they want crocodile skin to order by themselves, or a ready-made bag.

Farewell to Noah, Chu Mingcheng first went to Darwin, the capital of the Northern Territory of Australia, and then successfully applied for a crocodile hunting license here.

And the number of alligators that have been killed this year is only 237.

The number of 1,200 is still far away, but every summer and autumn are the peak seasons for killing alligators, and basically in the middle of autumn, the number of alligators to be killed will be full.

Secondly, Chu Mingcheng learned that not all crocodiles can receive bonuses after being killed.

It is that some alligators that have attacked people will get extra bonuses after they are killed. These alligators have issued relevant rewards in the city government.

The crocodile hunter can only know the specific habitat of the crocodile after receiving the task.

Hunting crocodiles is obviously very lucrative, but there are also many hunters who kill crocodiles every year, so this is a very dangerous profession.

Before Noah came, Chu Mingcheng went to buy a hand pole when he had nothing to do, and was going to go fishing in the river, to see if he could catch some aquatic fish that were not available in China, and to add some experience to the aquatic illustrated book.

All the fish boxes and crab cages I bought in Melbourne were sold second-hand. These things are not easy to transport back to China, so I only have an electric winch with me now.

So I’m going to go fishing today, and I have to buy a fish protector besides the hand pole.

As for other non-essential equipment, don’t buy it, save some money.

In addition, although the fishing license in Melbourne has not expired, it cannot be used in the northern region, so he has to buy a new one.

Fortunately, the price is not expensive, so he just bought a three-day one.

Rented a car, Chu Mingcheng watched the navigation and drove all the way to the suburbs.

After about an hour, he found a small wild river with dense vegetation.

Come to the river, Chu Mingcheng frowned, the water quality of this river is not good today!

It may be because of the heavy rain that just fell in the morning, the river water looks very yellow.

In this case, the fish in the water will be unable to hide and look for food because their sight is blocked, so this is not a good place for fishing.

But after thinking about it, Chu Mingcheng decided to fish here for a while.

He originally planned to pass the time by fishing, but he didn't care how many fish he could catch.

Take out some nest-making materials and sprinkle them two meters in front, hang up the bait, and throw the hook bait to the nest-making position.

It is reasonable to wait at least half an hour after making a nest, usually an hour.

But Chu Mingcheng is fine here, so he started fishing directly. What if a small fish that got lost got hooked?

However, the movement on his side has attracted the attention of a creature resting on the shore not far away.

It sank slowly into the water, causing almost no movement, only a little ripple on the river surface.

It dived into the water and approached Chuming City at an extremely slow speed.

After getting closer, it hesitated.

As a newborn crocodile, it currently only feeds on fish and small amphibians in the river.

Under normal circumstances, it will avoid some large creatures, because it knows that it has not grown up yet, and it can't handle it.

Therefore, after approaching, it finds that the prey is a bit big, so it stops first and does not attack rashly.

Secondly, the prey is far away from the shore, and it is not sure to bite.

So quietly hid under the nearby weeds, exposing a crocodile head to breathe, waiting for the prey to approach the water.

At that time, it is the time for it to hunt.

However.

"Fuck!"

Chu Mingcheng, who had been fishing for most of the day without any movement, turned his head casually to look around, only to see a crocodile head less than two meters away from him, and was immediately taken aback.

Has the crocodile in northern Australia been inundated to such an extent?

He can meet a crocodile when he fishes in any small wild river?

Chu Mingcheng put away the fishing rod immediately, but when he raised the fishing rod, he stabbed a big fish.
