Carry an aquarium with you

Chapter 183 The Eastern Dragon

After only staying at home for two days, Qin Feng and Qin Lei set off for the beautiful country.

Li Xinyue wasn't brought with her mainly because she knew that Qin Lei was going with her, so she didn't intend to disturb Anna's good business.

After arriving in Los Angeles, it was naturally Anna who came to pick them up at the airport, but when they saw her, the two big men were stunned.

But one is purely attracted, and the other has a weird smile on his face.

Off-the-shoulder outfits, a short skirt, a pair of high-heeled sandals at home, and pure lust makeup on his face. Qin Feng clearly remembered that when he and Li Xinyue came last time, Anna dressed casually.

Forget it, this is their business, and Qin Feng is too lazy to take care of it.

Resting in Los Angeles for a night to adjust the time difference, he flew alone to Dutch Harbor in the Alaska peninsula the next day.

Coming to this place again, Qin Feng felt the scenery different from February.

The sea breeze is cool and comfortable, and the sweltering heat of summer can't be felt here at all.

Instead of going to Aldrich immediately, he took his driver's license to a translation company to get a notarized driver's license.

In Alaska, you can use the notarized version of the translated version of the domestic driver's license. With the driver's license and the notarized version of the translated version, you can rent a car for a period of three months.

Qin Feng rented a Ford pickup, [-] green notes a week, very expensive.

But during this period of time, he really needs a car to travel, so it's expensive!

Then he went to buy two three-meter-long foam boxes, a fish killing knife and a lot of ice, and then drove to an open place.

There was no one around and no monitoring, so with a thought, the two toothfish in the aquarium appeared in the foam box.

This time he didn't pinch the tail, but removed the internal organs after bloodletting, and put ice cubes on it.

Only then did he drive to Aldridge's home.

It is really comfortable to drive in this kind of township. Although the road is not big, there are almost no cars along the way, and there is no need to squeeze around at all.

On the way, Qin Feng also called Aldridge, told him that he was already in Dutch Harbor and would be at his home soon, and brought him a gift.

Although Aldrich was a little surprised, but considering that the crab fishing season was only over a month away, it was indeed time for Qin Feng to come over to buy a boat, so he was not too surprised, but expressed his welcome.

Qin Feng greeted Qiao Silin again, and seeing that Tishanna was nowhere to be seen, he asked suspiciously: "Where is Tishanna, should she be on vacation now?"

I learned from Anna that they are still on vacation, and the fall class will start at the end of August or early September, which is similar to that in China.

However, some universities in the beautiful country have different schedules for classes. They are also divided into quarter system and trimester system. As the name suggests, there are four semesters or three semesters a year.

"Hanstina went to Miami with her friends, she is not a girl who stays at home obediently." Jocelyn shrugged her shoulders with a helpless expression.

Qin Feng smiled and didn't say anything else, the question was just out of politeness.

"Aldrich, I brought you a present, maybe you will like it."

"is it?"

When Qin Feng opened the trunk of the pickup truck and revealed two large foam boxes, Aldrich immediately became interested.

"Qin, what is this, is it tuna?"

"Haha, let's move it down first, you will know if you open it and have a look!"

So the two men together lifted down the foam box that weighed more than three hundred catties after adding ice cubes.

"Huh~ This is really a big guy." Although Aldrich didn't open the box, the size and weight of the box let him know that the guy lying inside is definitely not small.

Qin Feng smiled without saying a word, watching the two unpacking.

When Aldridge opened the foam box, he and Jocelyn beside him suddenly exclaimed.

A series of OH MY GOD! popped out of their mouths, making Qin Feng complain to himself. The way foreigners express surprise is really single.

"Qin, is this an Antarctic toothfish?" Aldrich asked with an incredulous expression.

"Yes, I got some toothfish quotas from my friends in the past two months, and then went to lie in Antarctica. This toothfish is 290 meters long and weighs 320 seven catties. According to your side, it is [-] Seven pounds."

"The largest toothfish known so far is 260 meters long and weighs 280 jins, or [-] pounds. So do you like this gift?"

"Of course, this is the most valuable and memorable gift I have received in my life." Aldrich stood up and gave Qin Feng a warm hug.

"By the way, I have another one here, which I want to give to Captain Sigel. Do you know his address?" Qin Feng pointed to another foam box on the car and said.

"Haha, Sickert will be very happy to see this gift from you."

Since this box contains toothfish, the other box doesn't have to guess what it is.

Aldridge turned around and said to Jocelyn, "Joselin, I want to have a drink with Qin and Sigel tonight, please prepare."

"Okay." Qiao Silin agreed with a smile, and then watched the two leave.

When he came to Sigel's house, he was obviously very surprised to see Qin Feng. When he saw the gift he gave, he immediately laughed heartily.

In Sickert's life, he has helped many young people, but few are as caring as Qin Feng.

Moreover, this gift was indeed sent to the hearts of the two captains, which increased their interest in fishing a lot.

Last time they said they went fishing with Qin Feng, it might have been a joke, but this time they might seriously consider it.

In the evening, a group of people drank and ate fish at Aldrich's house, and the fish was naturally toothfish.

This kind of fresh toothfish tastes better than the quick-frozen one, and several people who ate it nodded repeatedly.

But with such a big fish, Aldrich and Sickert's family will definitely not be able to finish it and will give it away.

So Qin Feng also reminded them, saying that there is too much toothfish protein, babies should not eat too much, and it is easy to cause indigestion.

The next day, Sickert and Aldridge took Qin Feng to a shipyard. The owner of this shipyard was an old acquaintance of the two of them. With their introduction, there were some discounts for buying a ship.

When he came to the shipyard, Qin Feng had a detailed understanding of the crab boat.

Normally, a ship must at least have a trawling system, a fish hunting system, and a storage system. Like the Future, except for the lack of a trawling system, other configurations are top-notch.

However, a crabbing vessel hardly needs anything other than a sorting and storage system.

Therefore, many crabbing boats are refitted from other boats. The boats chosen for refitting are basically large iron boats, equipped with diesel engines with a total power of about [-] horsepower.

Because work is often done at night, exaggerated lighting systems are required on board.

However, after arriving at the shipyard, Qin Feng still inquired about the price of the new 130-foot ship.

It turned out that after learning about the discount, he would get 300 million green notes, and a 33-foot (200-meter) new boat would cost [-] million green notes, which immediately dispelled his idea of ​​buying a new boat.

So they went to see two second-hand boats first.

The price is not as expensive as imagined. The two boats are 43 feet long, and the price is [-] green notes.

One boat is ninety feet long and costs 58 greenbacks.

But Qin Feng took a rough look and was not very satisfied.

Although these two look too retro, they feel like eight 90s fishing boats.

And it's relatively small, with a maximum storage capacity of 130 tons, which doesn't meet his requirements.

And the accommodation environment space is relatively small, feeling very crowded.

Having experienced Aldrich's big ship, he obviously wants to get a big one too.

Seeing that Qin Feng was dissatisfied, the shipyard manager took a few people to see the three newly refitted crabbing boats.

The refitted crabbing boat is relatively moderate in price because it is a second-hand boat that has been purchased and refitted.

The smallest of the three ships was 150 feet, the largest was 350 feet, and the storage capacity reached [-] tons.

But obviously, Qin Feng doesn't need such a big one, and the 130-foot one in the middle is very suitable for him.

Moreover, this ship was refitted from a nearly [-]% new oil tanker. The hull was very new, and the engine and other configurations were OK.

As for the price, it is not cheap either. After some discounts, it still reaches 230 million green notes, which is almost 560 million RMB.

Qin Feng didn't have that much money, so he couldn't afford it.But you can pay a deposit first, and pay in full after one month.

If you do not buy after one month, the deposit will not be refunded.

As for the loan, he is obviously not eligible.

Qin Feng decided to buy this ship without much consideration. There are nearly [-] tons of emperor crabs, and he has confidence in his heart. He will find a chance to sell this time when he goes back.

"Qin, you are welcome to join the crabbing circle in Alaska." Aldrich congratulated, "Perhaps you should give your new boat a name now, and we will participate in the filming of the documentary, and we can't do without a name."

"A name?" Qin Feng thought deeply, without Li Xinyue, his talent for naming seemed to be able to be effectively used.

"How about calling it the Crab God? With the blessing of the Crab God, I believe I can return with a full load every time!"

Aldridge and Sickert: "."

"Qin, maybe you can change the name to something more prominent? For example, how about the Dragon, Huaxia is now the awakened dragon?" Aldridge suggested in a low voice.

Qin Feng's eyes lit up when he heard the words, it seemed to be quite good.

Just about to make sure, Sickert also gave a suggestion: "Qin, I think the Dongfang is also good, after all, you are from the East."

This seems to work too.

Qin Feng thinks that the suggestions of both of them are very good.
Hey, isn't it a good name to combine?
"Or call it the Oriental Dragon. I think the suggestions of both of you are very good, and it will be perfect if you combine them."

Aldrich and Sickert looked at each other, and they also thought the name of the ship was good, so they nodded: "We also think it's good."

After the name of the ship was decided, Qin Feng told the owner of the shipyard about his request, and sprayed the five Chinese characters of Dongfang Julong on the side of the ship, and then sprayed the English name of the ship under the Chinese characters.

The boat was set, and the next day, with the help of Aldrich and Sigel, Qin Feng bought another [-] crab pots.

The new crab pots are too expensive, one cost two thousand green notes.But the price of second-hand crab cages is much cheaper. One only needs [-] green notes, and the total price is only [-] green notes.

A full $30 cheaper, although some of it needs fixing, but still a good deal.

For the repair, Aldrich patted his chest and said that he could ask someone for help, and he would also help him check the quality of the repair, so that Qin Feng could go back to China to make money with peace of mind.

After staying for another day, Qin Feng returned the car and flew to Los Angeles.

When he saw Anna and Qin Lei again, he thought they were already together. After all, he was not a light bulb, so he went to Alaska on purpose.

As a result, the two still slept in separate rooms without any progress.

"What's the use of your thing, why don't you cut it?" Qin Feng despised Qin Lei in private.

"I'm not thinking of starting the king crab business first, and then I'll talk about it after I make money!" Qin Lei blushed and quibbled.

"It's too much!" Qin Feng was quite speechless, "I have a bad stomach, so I still think about it so much? Go ahead, save the tadpoles and turn them into frogs? I hope that next time I come, you have already moved in."

Qin Lei: "."

Without wasting time in Los Angeles, Qin Feng flew back to China the next day, and then told Li Xinyue that he was going to the South China Sea to find bluefin tuna, and then drove the Future to sea.

If you want to take out a large number of king crabs, it is better to find a suitable reason.

So he still has to take a stroll outside, at least he will be checked and there will be no problems.

Originally, Qin Feng was ready to refuse Li Xinyue's reasons for going out to sea with him, but she didn't mention going to sea together at all, which made him a little confused.

The two have been together for so long, and he has a better understanding of his wife's personality. As long as he has time, he will definitely go to sea with her.

In fact, Li Xinyue discovered a very important thing recently, that is, her aunt was a week late.

She wasn't sure whether she was too tired to go to sea and caused the delay, or another possibility, so she didn't go out with her.

She was going to wait a few more days. If her aunt hadn't come, she would go to the pharmacy to buy a test stick.

On the other side, at the maximum speed of [-] hours a day, Qin Feng quickly came to the edge of the South China Sea. At this time, the front deck of the Future has already piled up [-] empty crab cages, which were bought by Pengcheng. .

After all, if you want to go crabbing, you can't do it without a crab cage!

The validity period of the visa is still there, and considering that Antarctica needs to come back and enter the country, it is not a single-entry visa.

Therefore, Qin Feng only took six days to reach the southwestern part of Australia, wandering around for five days.

Instead, he caught three masu tuna, that is, southern bluefin tuna. Unfortunately, the school of bluefin tuna did not meet.

However, there are many other tunas. There are now more than 60 small fish tanks, and the large fish tanks are full except for the three blue fins.

Although it is only the beginning of September, there is no need for Qin Feng to hang around here anymore. He came here to leave a record of the voyage, which can explain the origin of the emperor crab in case he is checked.

So he drove the Mirai back to China, and then went to the Okinawa Trough to dig for fossils.

He still couldn't find the specific location marked on the map, so he found a small island at random, and went to the island with a hoe to dig for fossils.

Although the small island is not very big, it is still covered by green plants, and there may be some poisonous snakes and insects.

So when Qin Feng climbed the mountain, he was cautious and slow.

Probing the grass with a hoe, he climbed up a small slope, and suddenly, a tree with yellow fruits in the distance came into Qin Feng's sight.

Is this a fruit tree?
He speeded up, and it didn't take long before he came under the fruit tree.

Looking up, the trees are full of heavy yellow fruits, but a small part of the fruits are still green, obviously immature.

Fortunately, I didn't expect to meet mango trees on this small island. Now August is the season when these wild mangoes are ripe.

Qin Feng observed the tree and found no possible snakes, so he climbed up and picked a big one, which was as big as his palm.

I don't know what kind of mango it is, but each fruit grows very big.

After scratching the mango skin a few times with the bloodletting dagger, Qin Feng pulled off the mango skin piece by piece.

One bite is full of juice and sweet.

After eating one, not only added some water, but the stomach that was a little hungry no longer protested.

Qin Feng rested for a while, took out the detector and looked at the location of the fossil, but was shocked to find that the fossil was two meters deep under the mango tree. It seems that this fossil is not easy to dig today!

Although a bit helpless, what should be dug still needs to be dug.

Fortunately, it rained here yesterday, so the soil will be moist and easy to dig.

It took three hours for the mango tree to fall, but its rhizomes were basically intact. When Qin Feng dug, he controlled his strength and tried not to hurt it.

Without the mango tree, his speed became much faster, and soon, the hoe hit a stone.

Qin Feng knelt down and reached out to touch the stone. With a brush, the stone disappeared.

He climbed out of the deep pit and got all the soil back. He wanted to replant the mango tree, but he didn't move it.

He had no choice but to pick all the mangoes, and he could still lift them with only the weight of the tree trunk.

After finishing the mango tree, the sun was almost setting, so he took off his clothes and packed some ripe mangoes, and Qin Feng went back immediately.

When he returned to the Future, it was completely dark.

Putting the mango in the kitchen and taking a shower, Qin Feng was free to check the fossils dug today.

[Tost giant squid endoskeleton (complete)]

【Limit: 7600 years】

[Recovery progress: 0%]

【Recovery time: 90 days】

[Because the fossils are complete, the holographic image recovery function is activated]

"Hey!" Qin Feng was shocked when he saw the last sentence.

He always thought that this function would only be activated after he had collected a hundred kinds of fossils.But I didn't expect that after finding a complete fossil, this function would be turned on.

It only takes three months to know the true face of this giant tost squid.

He looked at other fossils such as megalodon sharks, and found that the recovery time had not changed, but the time was slowly decreasing. Obviously, when the recovery time was reached, the true faces of these ancient creatures would appear before his eyes.

I just don't know what new changes will appear after the collection of [-] kinds of fossils is completed, which makes Qin Feng even more curious.

For the next time, he has been digging fossils on the side of the Okinawa Trough, and he did not end the operation until mid-September.

At present, the number of fossils has reached 27, which is 73 short.

After the foreign debt is paid off, you can go to the fossil market to find fossils that you have not yet obtained.
