Galactic Garbage Station

Chapter 43 Big Harvest

Su Jing and Su Liang went out by boat and could see a farm floating on the sea in the distance, which looked like a small island in the distance.

In fact, the real mariculture farms have strict requirements on all aspects, such as shelter, water temperature, salinity, tidal current speed, etc. Otherwise, the survival rate and growth rate of fish will be very unsatisfactory and ultimately lead to a loss. Generally speaking, it is absolutely undesirable to build a sea center like Su Jing, which is very windy, so it makes many neighbors feel strange.

“A’Jing, there is a lot of fish.”

“A’Jing, this fishing method is really too good.”

Su Jing had just arrived, and everyone welcomed him warmly, looking very excited.

A teenager with short flat hair stepped forward and politely said, “Brother Jing.”

Su Jing laughed and said, “A’Hu, you’re here so soon. You’ll follow me and do a good job and I will not treat you badly.”

The teenager was Su Hu, the son of Su Zhenqiao, who deliberately gave Su Jing an army salute: “Yes”, which made everyone laugh.

Su Jing jumped onto the fish farm from the fishing boat and looked at it with a smile and satisfaction. The whole fish farm was like a huge boat board, vastly paved on the sea, but there were ten big holes with ten net cages of ten meters in diameter, and nine net cages around them were all entrances to traps that could not be accessed. The most central one was the one. It’s a real net cage for farming. According to Su Jing’s design, these boards are suspended by floats, half a meter high from the sea. The boards are very thick and strong. Even if sharks attack, they will be safe standing on the boards.

Su Jing walked over from the fish farm and praised him: “You are very good at craftsmanship and construction.”

Su Liang laughed and said, “Thanks to Little Lin’s study of carpentry, he almost became a carpenter. Of course, his craftsmanship is first-rate.”

Su Xiaolin modestly said, “It’s nothing, my craftsmanship is still inferior to that of a real carpenter?”

Su Xiaolin’s father is a carpenter. He can even make very delicate chairs, sofas, and wooden doors. He is famous for his craftsmanship. Under Su Xiaolin’s influence, the woodworking of the fish farm is also very good. Although he is not as good as his father, he has done an excellent job.

Su Jing laughed and said, “Everyone’s working hard. Go and collect the fish and sell them to everyone for a bonus.”

So, everyone was excited. They came to three net cages with meatballs, trapped many fishes and began to close the net. Su Jing was shocked when he approached. Perhaps this time, the net was no longer on the shore, but in the center of the sea. It was easier to attract fish from all directions. The net cage with a diameter of 10 meters was densely packed with various kinds of fish. Each net cage had hundreds of Jin at least.

Because there are too many fish, everyone is afraid that the net cages can’t bear it. They can only harvest them carefully and use the net to pocket them at the same time. Everyone seems to be laughing and grinning at the same time. They have never harvested so many fishes in their life.

“What is this monster!” Su Hua suddenly screamed and almost lost the net bag. When people looked, they saw a moving “stone” at the bottom of the net cage. It had many tumorous protrusions on its surface, like the skin of a toad. It looked strange and disgusting.

“It’s a strange fish, get it quickly.” Su Liang and Su Xiaolin ran over excitedly. They didn’t know what the fish was, but last time they got the monster-like anglerfish that actually bought them more than twenty thousand yuan. They have an unusual feeling for this weird fish.

“Be careful. This is stonefish. It’s poisonous.” Su Jing hasn’t seen the fish himself, but he has seen it when he watched man vs nature and because it was a strange fish, he remembers it very clearly.

“Come on, no way.” Su Liang and Su Xiaolin were shocked and stopped.

“Not only is it poisonous, but it’s also deadly.” Su Jing rushed to give them science popularization. Stonefish is a highly toxic fish in nature. Its “deadly sting” is described as the most painful sting to humans.

Stonefish likes to hide under the sea or under the reef and disguise themselves as an ordinary stone. If someone does not pay attention to stepping on it, it will immediately respond without hesitation and emit lethal poison. The 12 to 14 sharp backstabs on its back, like needles, will easily penetrate the sole of the shoe and pierce the sole of the foot, causing rapid poisoning and severe pain until death.

“What should we do, let it go?” Su Liang asked.

“Of course, you can’t put it. Although stonefish is poisonous and ugly, it is fresh and tender. It has no fine thorns. It has high nutritional value. It has the medicinal effect of tonic and moisturizing the lungs. People with bad skin can eat it. After drying, the fish gizzard is processed into a fish belly for soup and the entrance is smooth and delicious. It can be compared with the fine shark’s fin and bird’s nest.” Su Jing smiled.

“How much is that worth?” Su Liang, Su Xiaolin, and others have bright eyes. Sure enough, weird fishes are not cheap.

“I don’t know the current market, but it should be at least two hundred to three hundred per jin. If we sell it to a great restaurant, we should get a higher price.” Su Jing said.

“Now be careful and don’t let it touch you.” Su Liang, Su Xiaolin, and others immediately forgot their fear, this stonefish weight around three or four jin(1.5 to 2 kg), that is to say, It is worth more than six hundred yuan, how could they let it go?

They took the fish cage and net pocket, carefully loaded stonefish in and pulled it up. As the net cage continued to pull up, it was found that there were a large number of stonefish at the bottom, all of which were brought up, totaling 25, weighing more than 40 jin(20kg).

“Hey, what is this snail?” Su Jing found an unknown snail crawling along with the mesh. The shell was beautiful, spiral-shaped, smooth, gray-white, with many orange-red ripples in the rear. Su Jing was curious and took a bucket and put it in it.

It took nearly an hour to catch all the fish in the three net cages, which is estimated to be more than a thousand jins.

The first fishing in this fishing ground was undoubtedly a bumper harvest. It only used three net cages and three meatballs. If nine net cages came together, it would be conceivable. Of course, not necessarily three times as many, after all, there is always a limit to the number of fishes in the sea.

Su Jing selected several fish and shrimps and threw them into the net cage for breeding in the center. All others were put ashore.

Many villagers gathered up curiously. In the past, even if Su Jing caught a lot of fish, villagers would be envious and surprised, but they would not pay too much attention to it. But now it’s different. Su Jing fools around with a salary of 5000 yuan a month. Everyone wants to see if Su Jing can make any money and can afford to give that salary. Especially the parents and relatives of several young men who have been working with Su Jing are more concerned.

However, when they saw Su Jing and others carrying several large baskets of fishes, they were completely dumbfounded.

“Wow, how did you catch so many fish?”

“There are a lot of big lobsters, abalones and sea crabs.”

“What kind of monster is that stone?”

When the villagers were amazed, Su Liang, Su Xiaolin, Su Hu, and others couldn’t help but look up and smug. They chose to follow Su Jing before and some elders were not optimistic. They thought that the monthly salary of 5,000 yuan was a trap. Now See who is right.

Su Jing called Zhao Zhi and Qian Shufeng and this time they did not come in person, but they immediately sent people to collect precious seafood at a high price, while other ordinary sea fishes were sent to the wholesale market.

In this way, the harvest of this fishing was as high as 80,000 and Su Jing was not stingy at all, giving 40,000 to Su Liang, Su Xiaolin, Su Hu, and other eight people, paying a month’s salary in advance and giving them 200 yuan each as bonuses.

The parents and relatives of Su Liang Su Xiaolin and others were completely relieved, while the other villagers were envious and wanted to join, but now they had enough hands.

“Is it not a farm built by A’Jing? How come fish are harvested so quickly?” Su Hai soon heard some rumors and asked people who knew it.

“It’s said that it’s not a farm, but a new technology fishing ground brought back from the outside. I heard that it hasn’t been fully built yet. It’s just a day’s trial. It earned 80,000 yuan. It’s really amazing. People with culture and technology are different when they go to college. Even their fishing is better than us. It’s a pity that he’s not short of hands, otherwise, I would have asked him for a job.”

“…” Su Hai was completely dumbfounded and his intestines were almost green with regret. Su Jing promised to let Su Zhenqiao’s son join him in front of him. If he had opened his mouth to ask him the same, Su Jing would not have refused, but now it’s too late.
