MTL - The Fish I Catch Can Be Upgraded-Chapter 256 The boat is full of crabs
Chapter 256 The boat is covered with crabs
Early the next morning, Chu Mingcheng set off with two tools and arrived at the pier.
It didn't take long for the movement of his supply to be discovered by the crabbing captain who had been living on the boat, so they immediately got busy, and after breakfast, they were ready to go to sea.
Chu Mingcheng is no longer worried that the fishery administration will come to make trouble. After all, several days have passed, and the trouble must have come long ago.
He guessed that it should be the function of the plug-in, otherwise it would not just be the trouble of these two crabbing boats.
At present, it seems that the people on the crabbing boat did not plan to use thermal weapons, but simply made troubles. Fortunately, he was easily resolved by his cheating.
The preparations for going to sea are done, and Chu Mingcheng starts the fishing boat and sets off.
It’s only seven o’clock in the morning, and it’s almost two o’clock in the afternoon when we arrive at the crabbing site. By then, the crab pots will be put down, and we can dive and carry crabs in the early hours of the night.
By the way, leave the crab traps of those people, and teach these people a small lesson, let them know that if they eat alone, they will be struck by lightning.
Seven hours later, he arrived at the crabbing site, and immediately put ten crab pots down.
Then drive the boat out of this range to one side, and make room for the crabbing boats that are following, and let them put in the crab pots.
"Huh, it's so big?" After a short while, Chu Mingcheng, who inadvertently looked up to observe the situation, was a little surprised when he saw two boats on the sea that were releasing crab pots.
In fact, the two crabbing boats have been following him for the past few days, and it cost a lot.
In the past, when they were stuck in a boat, they could catch some king crabs and other seafood and sell them. Economically, they could make some money and not lose money.
But the crab pots were put in twice, and they didn't catch a few king crabs that met the specifications.
The cost of going out to sea, the daily food consumption, and the wages of the boatman, etc. all need to be shared equally by the two captains and the crabbing team behind them, and they have lost a lot of money.
Although they earn a lot from crabbing every year, this group of people also spend a lot of money.
The annual maintenance of the crab fishing boat alone costs a lot of money, and the daily expenses are too expensive. Basically, they will go out to sea to catch king crabs or get some other seafood when they have no money.
Therefore, the blocking of Chuming City this time puts a lot of pressure on these crabbers, because the company doesn't care and they can only rely on themselves.
They still have to be careful. The only brash man is currently lying in the hospital. A moderate concussion prevents him from going out to sea for the time being.
The rest of the people didn't want to be the first bird to kill Chu Mingcheng, and sent themselves in to help others.
They didn't even dare to touch the other party's ten crab cages rashly, lest they be recorded by the other party and sue them for theft or robbery.
Now they are facing Chuming City, they have nothing to do.
At present, two hundred crab cages are put in at one time, which can be regarded as a gamble.
And their posture also made Chu Mingcheng think about whether he should keep all their crab cages.
Two hundred crab pots were left behind, so he probably had to go to the police station to have a talk.
Of course, he is not afraid of this. The strongest diver in the world cannot cut the ropes of two hundred crab cages overnight, even with oxygen cylinders on.
He simply felt that it was troublesome to go to the police station to talk, but after thinking about the behavior of this group of crabbers, he finally thought that they had to be punished to let them know that people should not be too arrogant.
At twelve o'clock in the night, Chu Mingcheng changed into a diving suit and sneaked into the water like the previous few times.
Just as he swam to the top of the crab pot, he was shocked to find that one of his crab pots was slowly rising.
‘Someone stole my crab cage? '
Chu Mingcheng swam directly in the deep water area before, so he didn't know that there was a boat above the crab cage.
He will see the crab pot, he immediately catches up with the crab pot, and then turns off the headlight.
When the crab pot was about to emerge from the water, he let go.
Even though there were not many lights at night, he could see a crabbing boat on the water.
Claude didn't dare to turn on the light. Fortunately, the moonlight is good today, coupled with the occasional use of the flashlight, he managed to salvage a crab cage thrown by Chu Ming City.
When the crab cage was pulled up and there was not a single king crab in it, he immediately smiled.
Although I still can’t find the reason why the other party returned to the air force when they were fully loaded in the previous two times, but this time the opponent finally has the air force.
If this situation persists for a few more days, Claude believes that Chu Mingcheng will give up fishing king crabs.
Now his thinking has changed, he doesn't care how much king crab the other party catches, as long as the person doesn't come after being driven away.
To avoid this accident, other people who are staring at the emperor crab will think that they can also get a share of the emperor crab. If the company does not care about it like this time, then that will be the real trouble.
Chuming City was not far away. When they saw the empty crab pots being thrown back, and then they continued to salvage their other crab pots, they immediately understood why they did so.
The corners of his mouth turned up, he didn't look any further, but dived to the bottom of the water again.
The crab pots were placed very densely this time, and the outermost circle was still full of king crabs, and occasionally one or two unlucky ones could be seen being suppressed by the crab pots.
Chu Mingcheng first picked up the bolt cutters and tried to cut the rope on the crab cage.
It turns out that this thing is really easy to use. When it is pressed, the rope is cut immediately.
It’s just that the cutting is not as direct as the cable, there will be a little residue and the cutting is not thorough enough.
However, the remaining point cannot pull the crab cage up. As soon as the people on the boat take up the line, the rope will be broken immediately.
Some of them don’t even need to be retracted, and they will break if they can’t bear the strength under the action of ocean currents.
Therefore, after Chu Mingcheng made a cut, he ignored it and continued with the next one.
Two hundred ropes is not an easy job, not to mention the pressure of diving, even if you keep using bolt cutters repeatedly, your hands will get tired.
Chu Mingcheng's excellent physical fitness was able to cut all these ropes in one go.
This kind of crab pots for catching king crabs is very expensive. His small crab pots cost 1,000 Australian dollars each, and the larger ones are estimated to cost 2,000 Australian dollars, and two hundred is 400,000 Australian dollars.
Of course, these crab pots have been used for a long time and are considered second-hand at most. But it can still be worth more than 150,000 Australian dollars, and this loss is enough to hurt the other party.
I just don’t know if they will find a suitable way to salvage it. Of course, the premise of salvage is that the cost of salvage cannot compare with the value of the crab pot, otherwise there is no need to salvage it.
After the ropes were cut, he carried the king crab into his own crab cage by the way.
Cutting the rope to carry the king crab He has been in the water, and he held his breath long enough, which made him feel suffocated underwater for the first time.
Chu Mingcheng immediately began to swim to the surface of the water, and at the same time checked the time on the diving watch, it was two hours and forty-three minutes.
According to the current situation, his extreme activity time in the water should be three hours.
He remembered that when he first obtained the ability to swim freely, the information given in the aquatic illustration book at that time was that the underwater activities were for two hours.
Now an hour has been added, is it the change brought about by the strengthening of physical fitness?
Chu Mingcheng didn't pay much attention to this detail. He returned to the fishing boat, took a shower, cleaned his diving suit and took it to dry before going back to play games.
He will collect the crab pots this time in the morning, and it will probably be interesting to see the astonished expressions of the crabbers.
At half past six in the morning, the sun has risen.
Chu Mingcheng used a life transformation to refresh himself, then went to get some breakfast to fill his stomach, and then started the fishing boat to collect crab pots.
When the first crab cage full of king crabs was put away, as no surprise, the captains of the two crab boats rubbed their eyes with their hands in disbelief.
Mouth a string of impossible!
Chu Mingcheng's harvest once again made them slump, and it seemed that they couldn't find a way to stop the other party except for sabotage.
Then they asked the boatman to take back all the crab cages and prepared to leave. They had to find other people to continue discussing what to do next.
It was just that when they were collecting the crab pots, something happened that made them panic. The ropes of three crab pots were broken.
"What's going on, why did these ropes break?"
Claude observed the incision where the rope was broken, but after being soaked in sea water, the incision had already spread like a twist.
In fact, Chu Mingcheng rubbed his hands together, making it impossible to see how it broke.
And the tool for committing the crime has been buried by him in a sand bed on the seabed, and it may become evidence of prehistoric civilization in hundreds of millions of years?
But Claude doesn't need to know how it was broken. A series of ropes are broken, and a fool knows that it is man-made.
Could it be that Chu Mingcheng secretly wore an oxygen cylinder and went underwater to cut it off?
Is he still a master diver?
But all the ropes that were collected next were broken ropes, causing Claude and the other captain to collapse immediately.
At the same time, he immediately ruled out the possibility of Chu Mingcheng committing the crime. It would take a lot of diving masters to cut the ropes of two hundred crab cages.
They knew exactly how many people were on that fishing boat, and they never stopped monitoring.
Besides, they also have people on watch at night, so of course they know if there is a ship approaching.
So the two captains went to watch the monitoring immediately, and they couldn't think of any other way except cutting the rope on the boat secretly.
As a result, everything was normal in the monitoring, and nothing strange could be found at all.
"Is it a ghost?"
"Maybe it's God's punishment, he thinks our behavior is too much?"
"Maybe you're right, I don't know of anyone else who can do it but God."
But this time the loss was too great. After much deliberation, they took back all the ropes first, and ignored some of the missing ones, and immediately decided to call the police.
But although they called the police, they didn't think those civil servants could find the reason why the ropes broke collectively, because this incident was really bizarre.
Chu Mingcheng did not leave at this time, he put all the emperor crabs into the living water tank, and then ate lunch leisurely, watching the two crabbing boats leave in a panic.
Their departure allowed him to finally let go and catch the king crab.
After eating lunch, Chu Mingcheng immediately changed into a diving suit and went to the bottom of the water.
The outer large crab cages are full of emperor crabs, while some of the crab cages have bundles of ropes on them.
He did cut all of the two hundred ropes, but the tops were cut for about twenty, and the buoys were discarded.
The ten crab pots he bought himself were a bit smaller. When there were a lot of king crabs, it was still faster to catch these big crab pots.
Therefore, before five o'clock in the afternoon, even the closed refrigerated compartment on the fishing boat was full of king crabs.
There are everywhere on the deck, and the cockpit door is closed, so that the king crab cannot climb in.
Chu Mingcheng reckoned that the king crabs this time weighed nearly 4,000 catties, and he would be able to catch a full share of the catch again.
