Daming Town Haiwang

Chapter 200, the fishing boat returns to port

In the port of Tianjin, with the ringing of the bell, everyone turned their eyes to the place where the sea and the sky meet. Several Dafu boats loomed on the sea, like warriors returning in triumph, cutting through the waves, with the flag of Ming on the top of the mast facing the wind. Fluttering.

"You're lucky. I originally wanted to find a special time to wait for the fishing boat to come back, but I didn't expect to meet it now."

Li Dongyang looked at the ships slowly approaching the port on the sea, smiled and said to Zhou Jing and Zhang Mao beside him.

"Luck is very good. I want to see if this boat can really catch more than [-] catties of sea fish."

Zhou Jing nodded, his eyes filled with anticipation.

As for Zhang Mao on the side, the same is true. He is already tempted now. He wants to buy a few fishing boats to go fishing, but the price of [-] taels makes him hesitate. Now he can see it with his own eyes. the best.

As the ship returned to the port, the people who were working at the port of Tianjin also stopped to rest and rest one after another. This has almost become a practice.

Every day when the ship returns to the port, everyone should stop and have a rest. This is a rule from Liu Jin.

Of course, Liu Jin's original purpose was to let more people see the richness of the ocean and stimulate more people to devote themselves to the ocean industry, so he issued such a strange rule. When the ship returns to the port, everyone rests, rests, and watches together. Look at the joy of the harvest.

"I don't know if there will be tuna this time. If there is, I can invite them to taste the delicacy in the ocean."

Liu Jin was also full of expectations. Li Dongyang, Zhou Jing, Zhang Mao and others just happened to come over. Since we want to promote the richness of the ocean to them, in addition to showing them the huge benefits of ocean fishing, it is best to let them taste it. The delicacy in this ocean.

"Clang~clang~"

Everyone didn't wait for too long. As the ship got closer and closer to the port, the bell on the lighthouse was heard again. At the same time, there were already people waiting by the side with many baskets in Tianjin port, just waiting for the ship to berth. Start unloading immediately.

The ship was getting closer and closer to the port, and everything on the ship could be clearly seen in the port. The first ship was the 'Taishan', and the sailors on the deck were excitedly waving to the port.

They were followed by four Dafu boats of the same size. These five boats did not go to North Korea, so they have been fishing in the Bohai Sea for some time.

Behind the five Dafu boats are four smaller fishing boats. The professional fishing boats manufactured by Tianjin Shipyard cannot be seen from a distance, and are blocked by the Dafu boats in front of them. , when it was getting closer and closer to the port, everyone discovered their presence.

A total of nine ships went out to sea, and all returned with a full load. This is also a rule of Liu Jin, because all aspects are not very mature now, so every time they go to sea, they are dispatched together. When they are on the sea, the distance between each other will not be separated. too far.

In this way, once a ship has an accident, other ships can still rescue people and increase the safety of fishing at sea.

Nine ships approached the pier of Tianjin Port slowly. With the return of the nine ships, the entire Tianjin Port became lively again.

The nine ships were berthed at nine piers, and there were hundreds of people waiting at each of the piers. They had prepared a large number of baskets and large scales. As soon as the ships stopped, they would immediately start unloading.

"Come on~"

Naturally, Liu Jin, Li Dongyang, Zhou Jing and the others came to a pier early in the morning, watching a big blessing ship mooring slowly, then anchored, hung up the cable, and moored steadily.

"Start unloading~"

As soon as the ship stopped, the steward in charge of unloading who had been waiting for a long time roared loudly.

Bulky men with shirtless arms and empty baskets began to board the big blessing boat on wooden planks. They didn't wait too long, and soon came down from the other side of the boat with a load of sea fish on the deck.

"One hundred and twenty catties~"

The selected sea fish must be weighed, because the income of the crew members who go to sea is now linked to the sea fish caught. The more they catch, the more rewards they will naturally get.

In addition, this is Liu Jin's usual style of doing things. Everything must be clearly recorded, how much is entered, how much is exported, where it is used, etc. There are detailed records, and the accounts can be checked at any time when necessary.

"One hundred and twenty catties, yes, Mr. Zhang~"

The steward in charge of the records gave the strong man who carried the fish a thumbs up. He could carry a load of hundreds of catties, and the strength was quite good.

"Normal, average~"

Zhang Laosan smiled and continued to line up to unload fish.

"As expected of someone who eats meat every day, this strength is indeed amazing."

Li Dongyang, Zhou Jing, Zhang Mao and others have been watching from the side, looking at a load full of sea fish, looking at Zhang Laosan's strong muscles all over his body, Zhang Mao couldn't help but said.

People in this era, especially those at the lower levels, do not have enough to eat or eat well, especially less oil, less salt, and less meat, so most of them are not tall and their strength is limited. Generally, they can only carry a few dozen catties. , This can pick up a hundred catties, that is a strong man.

Loads of sea fish were continuously unloaded from the Dafu boat, and baskets of sea fish were neatly stacked at the pier.

Soon, a hill was piled up at this pier, and the baskets of sea fish exuded the smell of the sea. These fish were all freshly caught, very fresh, and some of the crabs were still alive and kicking, showing their teeth and claws.

The most dazzling thing is naturally the large yellow croaker. The scales of large yellow croakers weighing several to ten catties are golden and golden, just like gold, and the number is very large. When one basket after another is piled up, it looks like a small golden mountain. endearing.

"It's over, a total of [-] catties!"

The whole unloading process did not last too long, because there were enough people and the efficiency was high enough, and all the sea fish in the Dafu boat were unloaded in just one stick of incense.

"Wait, there's another big guy here."

At this time, Shaxiong walked down with difficulty carrying a bluefin tuna weighing hundreds of catties. This tuna was very long and big, and its tail showed a very beautiful blue color.

"Haha, Mr. Li, Mr. Zhou, Mr. Zhang, today we have a lucky meal. This is bluefin tuna, the top sea fish among sea fish. Its meat is even better than beef."

When Liu Jin saw this big bluefin tuna, he smiled happily and said, bluefin tuna is definitely one of the top seafood in later generations, and sometimes you may not be able to taste it if you have money, because the quantity is too small.

　I don’t know if this bluefin tuna is considered top seafood. If you know the book friends, you can come out and spread the relevant knowledge~
