The Fish I Catch Can Be Upgraded - Chapter 286 leave alone

  Chapter 286 Leaving Alone

  Holding six giant crabs in his hand, Chu Mingcheng didn't intend to put them into the crab cage, but directly carried them back to his boat.

  So he swam slowly towards the water surface and the Poseidon at an upward angle of about 30 degrees.

  Swimming directly to the surface, he can adapt to the water pressure himself, but it will definitely affect these deep-sea crabs.

   Live crabs are valuable, and he will definitely try to keep them alive.

   Swimming in the dark deep sea is a very scary thing. You can't see your fingers around you. Only the light from the flashlight can see a small area clearly, but the place farther away is chaotic.

  Darkness enveloped Chuming City, and it seemed that something would rush out of the surrounding area at any time.

  Under normal circumstances, people will definitely be afraid in a dark environment, especially the unstoppable associations in their minds will increase their fear.

  But Chu Mingcheng has no such mentality at all, some people are naturally bold.

  In the past, when he went to school from his old house, there was a path with graves beside it.

  Most of the children who went to school there went in groups, but Chu Mingcheng had good academic performance when he was a child, and he liked to finish his homework at school before going back.

   Therefore, I often walk that road alone in the evening or even when there is no one in the dark, and there will be some goosebumps at the beginning.

  After only walking three or four times, I didn’t feel any more.

  Watching horror movies, Chu Mingcheng only feels a little thrilled when Ah Piao suddenly appears, and then he feels normal again.

  Nowadays, when diving in the deep sea, the surrounding environment is very scary for many people, but his mind is full of Mane, let alone the emotion of fear.

   When he almost swam to the surface, he found himself surrounded by a group of small shrimps.

  These small shrimps seem to be the raw materials for making shrimp skins, and they are quite valuable after drying.

  But he was not interested, and continued to swim towards the surface of the water with the giant crab.

   But the next moment, a huge mouth of the abyss suddenly appeared in front of him, and it charged straight in, as if it was going to swallow him in one bite.

  Chu Mingcheng's pores immediately stood up, and his scalp exploded. No matter how courageous he was, he was frightened by this shocking scene.

  At this moment, his heart was beating rapidly, his legs swung quickly, and he jumped up more than ten meters immediately.

   After dodging and looking back, a huge creature slowly swam past his feet. With this speed, unless Chu Mingcheng stays where he is, the opponent really can't catch up.

  He blinked, and was relieved when he knew what the creature was. It turned out to be a basking shark.

   This thing looks too awkward, especially when it suddenly appeared in his sight when it was preying, he almost thought he had encountered an unknown deep-sea beast.

  In the far sea, it seems that you can meet anything!

  Chu Mingcheng, who had already swam to the surface of the water, poked his head out to take a breath, then looked around, and found two fishing boats with flashing warning lights.

  The current distance is about a thousand meters. After confirming the direction, he hurried back.

   There were no emergencies such as great white sharks full of fangs in the next journey, and Chu Mingcheng returned to the Sea God safely.

  He put six huge Giant crabs into the living water tank one by one. Currently, the living water tanks are all empty, and he still put them in at will.

  But the first living water tank held thirteen giant crabs which were much smaller. He used a partition to divide the living water tank into two parts.

  When the shrimp cage is taken back tomorrow, the remaining half of the area can be filled with langoustine.

   Except for tuna marlin and other fish that must die when caught, as long as other sea creatures can live, Chu Mingcheng will try to keep them alive.

  If he can’t survive, then he can only freeze them alive in the refrigerated cabin to ensure the freshness of these aquatic products.

   Next, Chu Mingcheng went into the water three more times. Together with the first trip, he caught a total of twenty-four giant crabs.

  These crabs have long legs, and even if they are all folded up, they still occupy a lot of space. As a result, only twenty crabs can barely fit in one living water tank.

  Of course, if you catch some small ones, you can put more.

  But the dozens of extra-large giant crabs are only a small part of the crab group at the bottom of the water, and he must give priority to catching the big ones.

  After going back and forth four times, Chu Mingcheng was a little tired. He used life transformation twice to recover some physical strength and all energy, mainly to relieve mental fatigue and drowsiness.

   After all, night is bedtime, and no matter how energetic he is, he can't resist the laws of nature.

  However, in the past two life transformations could restore the full state, but now it can restore some physical strength by using it twice. It is estimated that it will take at least four or five times to fully restore.

   It's not that the effect of life transformation has become worse, but that his current physical fitness is much stronger than before, and the upper limit has increased.

   It’s like a pill that restores 200 HP. If the blood gauge is 400, two pills can restore full.

  But now that the blood gauge has reached more than a thousand after the upgrade, the pills that are knocked out naturally need more.

   I went into the water three times again, and the live water tank was filled with giant crabs except for the langoustine.

  The sky is still dark at the moment. Although Chu Mingcheng is tired, he can come a few more times.

  He raised his hand and looked at his watch.

"Well"

  The figure of 736 meters above surprised him.

   After realizing it, he finally realized that his watch was broken.

   Thinking about it is right, although it is a diving watch, it only has the basic diving assistance function, but there is no design to resist water pressure, and no one will care about this aspect.

  Dive to such a deep place, and keep going back and forth, it's normal that the watch can't hold it.

  It seems that after returning to Shanghai this time, I can buy a new diving watch.

   Taking off his watch, Chu Mingcheng came to the living room and looked at the alarm clock. It was only past three o'clock in the morning, and he could still go on catching giant crabs.

   But in this way, he would have to use one or two life transformations all night to ensure his energy during the day.

  And the running water tank is already full, so if you grab it again, you can only put it in the refrigerated cabin to freeze alive.

  His current customer volume, too many crabs at one time may not be able to digest, and it is estimated that he will sell them cheaply to fishmongers.

  Thinking about it this way, Chu Mingcheng immediately lost the motivation to catch it.

   Write down the coordinates. If the crabs don’t migrate, he can catch some and sell them if he passes by here every time he goes out to sea.

  Take the route of sustainable development, there is really no need to give up the crabs all at once.

   So he changed out of his diving suit and decided to take a shower and go to sleep.

   After two days in a row, Chu Mingcheng took Chen Yang and Zhang Wei, and encountered three large tunas, and both sides gained something.

  The space in the refrigerated compartment of the Poseidon is about to be filled with tuna.

  Chu Mingcheng simply stacked up the small yellowfin tuna. These frozen hard fish are not afraid of being crushed underneath.

  After a little cleaning, the entire refrigerated compartment suddenly became empty again, and at least ten more large fish weighing two hundred catties could be placed.

  Currently, the giant crabs are in good condition, and there are no crabs with insufficient vitality.

   There were a few langoustines that lacked vitality, and Chu Mingcheng directly killed them in the kitchen.

  This time he caught a total of 103 catties of langoustine. The shrimps are quite big, with an average of about eight per catty, adding more than 800 experience points to the fine aquatic products illustrated book.

  It's a pity that the high-quality aquatic products are currently at level 15, and the experience points for upgrading to the next level are 1600, which is now more than 900.

  But the panel of the tuna has been raised to level three, and will soon be level four.

  When I was selling fish in Shanghai, I was only four tunas short of leveling up.

   Later, he took Chen Yang and the others out to sea and encountered a school of yellowfin tuna. On that day, he hunted 21 fish, plus five in the past few days, making a total of 26 fish.

  【Tuna (Level 3)】

  【Current experience: (22/30)】

  【Experience acquisition conditions: If you hunt tuna over 50 catties, you can get some experience points; if you hunt tuna below 50 catties, you will deduct some experience points. 】

  【Scan: You can check the weight of tuna】

  【Usable Tools: Fishing Tackle (Kesui), Speargun】

  【Reproductive Growth (Level 3): Increase the reproduction speed, growth speed, and viability of all slow-growing giant fish within the bound range of the host by 30%. And 3% of migratory fish will stay in the bound sea area and will not go to other sea areas. 】

  【Binding range: Huaxia sea area (the sea area of ​​the country to which the host belongs, will automatically change according to the change of the host’s nationality)】

  【Affecting fish: the most economically valuable fish that can grow to more than 200 catties】

  【Fish Gathering (Level 3): There is a 3% chance to attract nearby tunas to actively gather in the waters where the host is located. 】

  【Deliciousness: +3% (Fish with more fat content and better meat quality will be attracted first)】

  【Body size: +3% (Fish with larger size among the same kind of fish will be attracted first)】

  According to the panel, only eight items are needed to upgrade to level four.

  But Chu Mingcheng is not in a hurry to continue fishing. If the eight fish are unlucky, it will take several days or even be completed before returning.

   And a month later, the 10% increase will not have much impact on tuna in domestic waters.

   As for the attributes of reproduction speed, tuna is currently 30%, and it will increase by 10% every time it is upgraded.

  The promotion of ordinary aquatic products is 10%, and the promotion of high-quality aquatic products is 20%.

  Chu Mingcheng used to think that the improvement of ordinary aquatic products was a bit low, but later he didn't think so.

  Common fish reproduce very quickly, and a 10% increase is not low.

   But even if it really can't keep up with the reproduction speed of fine fish and large fish such as tuna, it doesn't matter.

  Humans will take action!

  Yes, it is the fishermen who depend on the sea for their livelihood to maintain the balance of aquatic products in domestic waters.

  Which kind of aquatic products dare to reproduce in excess, domestic fishermen dare to rely on this kind of aquatic products to have a good harvest, nothing more than the selling price is cheaper than before.

   But this is obviously a good thing. Customers spend less money, but fishermen can earn more by quantity.

   And worthless marine life, the aquatic illustrated book will not be affected, so there is no need to worry about this situation.

  Currently, Chen Yang and Zhang Wei have adapted to life in the open sea, and their tuna fishing skills are similar.

  Although there were unhooks during the period, the chances of successfully catching them were still very high, so Chu Mingcheng decided to leave here temporarily and go to the high seas alone to have a look.

   Their ships cannot go to the high seas, and they cannot take them with them.

  So after saying goodbye to them, Chu Mingcheng set the coordinates and went directly to the waters between the East China Sea and Ryukyu Island.

   The fish he wants to catch this time is actually the Oriental perch.

   There are actually locations near the high seas in the northern part of Baodao and the Zhoushan fishing ground in the East China Sea, but the number seems to be not as many as in the high seas.

  Oriental perch is not well-known in China, even in the small days, and even most fishermen do not know this kind of fish.

  But this kind of fish is the ceiling of white meat fish, and its taste is not inferior to the deep-sea seven-banded grouper.

   And like the seven-banded grouper, the bigger the fish, the better it tastes.

  Because its quantity is rarer than seven-banded grouper, its price is also higher.

  In the small days, a three-jin piece can be sold for 35,000 yen, which is almost 1,800 RMB, or 600 a catty, and the bigger the unit price, the higher the price.

  In China, the price of this fish is also not much lower. The average price should be around 500. Those that are more than 20 catties may be sold for 1,000 catties.

   This is also the reason why Chu Mingcheng came here, after all, the price is too touching.

  However, most fishing boats are unable to obtain high seas fishing licenses. Chuming City has this certificate, so naturally it is not afraid of inspection by the domestic coast guard.

  There are often patrol boats on these borders to prevent the fishermen next door from sneaking into the East China Sea to fish.

  Of course, our domestic fishermen may also run to the opposite side, and the other side will also adopt mandatory interception and detention measures.

  Chu Mingcheng was also surfing in the border area of ​​the East China Sea this time, and he didn't want to meet the coast guard in his childhood.

  The distance is not too far, and it only takes about ten hours to arrive.

  Chuming City set off at 8:00 am, and now it is past 6:00 pm, just in time to have dinner before fishing.

  He came to the front deck first. The weather has been good for the past two days, and the ambergris placed on the deck has completely dried out.

   One piece is not as black as it used to be, and it has a yellowish color on it, and even a little white appears on one or two of them.

  Actually, ambergris in this state can be sold. Some perfume companies can extract fragrance from these ambergris and make them into perfumes.

  Chu Mingcheng checked, and a foreign fisherman found the body of a sperm whale the year before last, and dug out a piece of 254 catties of ambergris from the body.

  The quality of the dug out ambergris is the worst, similar to those of his, or even worse.

  Others’ ones are pitch black, but his ones are at least a little yellow and white.

   But even such poor ambergris was sold for more than 9.5 million RMB, an average of 75 yuan per gram, so the ambergris in Chuming City is still very valuable.

  The kind of top-quality ambergris that is thousands or even thousands of grams per gram needs to float on the sea for hundreds of years, which is too rare.

   Moreover, this kind of top-quality ambergris is usually not that big. After dozens or hundreds of years of seawater washing, these top-quality ambergris can be burned as big as a football, and most of them are only the size of an adult's fist.

  Chu Mingcheng went to fetch the scale, weighed all fourteen pieces of ambergris, and recorded them down.

  After weighing, the largest weighed 23 catties and 6 taels, and the smallest was about the size of a baby's fist, 343 grams.

  All together, the weight was over fifty catties, only fifty-three catties and seven taels.

  According to 80 yuan per gram, the total value still reached more than two million.

   This amount of money is enough for a young guy in China to marry a wife. It is true that the RV and the bride price are so much, so it is about the same as a wife?

  Chu Mingcheng is not greedy, and is very satisfied with the price of these ambergris.

  But at the moment he is not short of money, so he puts the ambergris in the box again to dry, which is filled with sea water. He wants to see if the ambergris will change further in a short period of time.

  But now that he knows the value of his ambergris, Chu Mingcheng will not put it outside as hastily as before.

  Take it out to dry in the sun when you go out to sea, and put it in the cabin when you return to the shore.

  Washing his hands repeatedly with hand sanitizer, Chu Mingcheng came to the back deck and first looked at the langoustine in the live water tank.

   "Oh, a few more langoustines died, and even a killer crab died. The vitality of these marine life is too fragile!"

  He picked up the cheat net casually, picked up a dozen alive and kicking langoustine, and then lifted a giant crab with teeth and claws from the living water tank, and then walked into the kitchen.

  Xiaomi was originally lying on the sofa, when Chu Mingcheng carried the crab through the living room to the kitchen, it immediately got up and followed.

  After coming to the kitchen, he raised his head, blinking his round and watery eyes: "Meow~"

  Chu Mingcheng took a look at it, and said with a smile: "You are the smartest and the best at acting like a baby. Why don't those three silly children in your family not have your cleverness?"

  Xiaomi couldn't understand what he said, but seeing that he was talking to herself, it still stepped forward to rub his feet with its body, and then meowed twice.

   "Okay, okay, you go to rest first, and I'll give you something delicious later." Chu Mingcheng took out a cat stick and fed it, then drove it out of the kitchen, and closed the kitchen door.

  Xiao Mi smartly didn’t bother her anymore, and didn’t wander around the door, she just lay down next to her, and when the kitchen door opened, she would know immediately.

  Chu Mingcheng first placed the giant crab on the chopping board. Although this one was relatively small among the ones he caught, it still weighed seven or eight catties.

  After the legs were spread out, the cutting board couldn't be put down at all, so he simply took out the cutting board and put it aside.

   Clean the crab first, then turn it over.

  The crab's legs are moving all the time, but it's a pity that it doesn't resist at all. It doesn't have a big claw like a blue crab, which is dangerous to a certain extent.

   But to Chu Mingcheng's surprise, this one turned out to be a female crab, which he hadn't noticed before.

   Fortunately, there are no crabs, otherwise he would have to take them and release them.

   Picked up the scissors and cut off its tail, a lot of blood flowed out.

  The blood of this crab is not transparent, but clear wine red, because its crab paste is also wine red.

  Afterwards, he grabbed the crab legs, grabbed the crab shell with the other hand, and forcibly broke it apart with both hands.

  The resistance was so strong that his fingers hurt a bit from breaking them off, and he was probably the only one to break them, Zhang Weilai really couldn't break them off.

  The crab shell is full of blood, and there are a lot of dark yellow crab brains and wine red crab paste.

  Pour out the blood, and use scissors to cut off the internal organs inside the crab shell and clean them.

  The stomach pouch of this crab is quite large, and the inside is pitch black, and it has not been digested after three days of raising it.

  But Chu Mingcheng didn't cut it open curiously to see what's inside.

  These crabs are scavenging, and it would be quite disgusting to open them inside.

  If you encounter anglerfish in the future, you can find some treasures there.

  Next, Chu Mingcheng cut the crab in half with a knife, and he was surprised to find that the crab had no meat on its body. Could it be that the crab also eats legs like the king crab?

   It was the first time he ate this kind of giant crab today, because considering the length and size of the crab cage rope, he did not let Zhang Wei and Chen Yang know that there were so many crabs on board.

  Everyone goes to sea, and if you don’t understand it now, it doesn’t mean you won’t know it in the future.

  Ten crab pots caught forty-two giant crabs weighing more than 20 or even 30 kilograms in one night, which is obviously impossible.

   Unless the crab cage is changed to one that catches king crabs, so when he goes back this time, he is going to change the crab cage, and he has to prepare a longer rope.

  Eating giant crabs today is not because he is greedy.

   Instead, we need to understand the taste of this crab and the sales situation after returning to see if the price needs to be adjusted.

  After all, the market price is almost twice that of king crab. If the taste of crab meat is not as good as that of king crab, then who will buy it again at such a high price is not a fool.

  Chop the crab legs into small pieces according to the joints, and chop off all the crab bodies.

  After chopping off the crab body, he found that there was a lot of crab meat, which was still very full, and the empty part was only in the middle.

  Since it is to taste the umami of crabs, Chu Mingcheng does not have braised.

  All the crab meat is steamed in the steamer, then the kitchen window is opened, and the charcoal stove is taken out to prepare the shellfish.

   With so many crab roe and crab brains, eating shellfish is the most original taste.

  After getting ready, he peeled off the langoustine, got some ice water and put the shrimp meat in it to chill.

  The sashimi of langoustine is indeed more delicious and sweeter than ordinary shrimp.

  Finally, he took out a box of snowflake beef brought from Chen Yang, and he didn't know if the crab meat wrapped in sliced ​​beef was good or not.

   It took a full hour for Chu Mingcheng to finish the dinner.

  He first brought in all the cat bowls, poured a little cat food, then spread some scraped crab meat, and put a slice of beef on top of each bowl.

   They had a big meal today, so they are lucky.

   After a while, the cats chirped in the living room, apparently eating very well.

  Chu Mingcheng himself began to taste giant crabs.

   A crab leg came first, and when the joint was twisted, a large piece of crab leg meat was pulled out.

  The crab meat is relatively full, just like eating a king crab, a large piece is directly sent to the mouth.

   After tasting the crab meat, Chu Mingcheng had a plan in his mind.

   The crab meat of giant crab has a better taste and sweeter taste than that of king crab, which is no worse than the claws of blue crab.

  In fact, although King Crab is famous, its crab meat is not as delicious as the big claws of blue crab.

  However, the taste of giant crab meat is not as good as that of king crab, which is better.

   Then he poured the crab meat into some crab shells and stirred it with the cooked crab roe and crab brain.

   After taking this bite, Chu Mingcheng immediately nodded. The crab roe tasted very good and very fragrant.

  Although it is not as good as the crab roe of hairy crabs, it is not much worse.

  In this case, it is very reasonable for his big giant crabs to sell for five hundred and one catties.

  Although the cost performance is still not high, but according to the rarity, many people will still consume it.

  However, if some small ones are caught in the future, the price can be cheaper.

   Thanks for the recipe
