My Deep-sea Fishery

Chapter 895: Tortoisebill Gathering Site (Part 1)

There are only more than a hundred of them. I want to keep a small part, and I can give you a hundred of them. Xiang Yang said with a smile.

When Wei Zhongtian heard that Xiang Yang had more than one hundred wild bread crabs, his eyes lit up.

But when he heard Xiang Yang said that he would keep a small part and only sell him a hundred, he hurriedly said: Boss Xiang, please give me the rest, I can pay a high price. We can continue to work together in the future.”

In fact, things like breaded crabs are not what Wei Zhongtian is in urgent need of.

Although bread crabs are precious, the artificial breeding technology is really mature. With Wei Zhongtian's ability, it is not difficult to get wild bread crabs.

What Wei Zhongtian was really eyeing was Xiang Yang's fleet.

Although there are only three fishing boats in Xiang Yang's fleet, it seems very inconspicuous.

But in fact, the three fishing boats of Xiang Yang are all capable of going to sea. When they really catch seafood, it is very scary in terms of quantity and quality.

Wei Zhongtian was very eager to get a relationship with Xiang Yang's fleet.

It is best for the two parties to sign a long-term supply contract.

Xiang Yang naturally knew what Wei Zhongtian was thinking.

But Xiang Yang had no intention of signing an agreement with Wei Zhongtian at all.

Because Xiang Yang's seafood basically didn't worry about the market, as long as it was shipped to the shore, it would basically be snapped up immediately.

Even Xiang Yang's old customers sometimes quarrel in order to fight for more catches.

In this market situation, if Xiang Yang hadn't formed a new fleet, Xiang Yang would never have the idea of ​​developing new customers.

Wei Zhongtian saw that although Xiang Yang's tone was polite, his attitude was very firm, and he immediately knew that Xiang Yang would never give in again.

Immediately, Wei Zhongtian said: Okay, I want this batch of breaded crabs, and I will give you the market price here.

Xiang Yang was a little surprised and said: Don't you look at the goods first? Are you not afraid that I will sell the bread crab you raised?

Hearing this, Wei Zhongtian immediately grinned and said, This is our first transaction, but it will definitely not be our last transaction. For me, integrity is the most important thing in business.

After thinking about it for a while, Xiang Yang understood.

That's right, the other party is the owner of a hotel, this amount of seafood is actually not in the eyes of the other party at all, even if it is a loss, to the other party, it is just a small loss.

The other party's real intention was to make Xiang Yang feel good about him through this method.

Thinking of this, Xiang Yang stopped worrying about these things immediately, and directly entrusted Chen Qingsheng to complete the transaction with Wei Zhongtian. As for Xiang Yang himself, he walked towards the fishing boat.

After resting in the city of Haikou for a day and replenishing some fresh water resources for the fishing boats, the fleet continued to head south.

Two days later, the fleet arrived at a deserted island.

On this deserted island, in addition to growing a large number of coconut trees, there is also a kind of sea turtle called hawksbill turtle everywhere.

Hawksbill is actually a marine animal belonging to the class Reptilia and the family Turtle.

Adult tortoiseshell can generally grow to a carapace length of about one meter and weigh more than 100 kilograms.

These turtles look very strange, with two pairs of frontal scales on the top of the head, the snout is flat on the side, and the front end of the upper jaw is hooked into an olecranon shape.

There are two pairs of forehead scales, the carapace scutellum is imbricate, and the horny plate on the back is imbricate. The surface is smooth, with brown and light yellow patterns.

The limbs of these turtles are flipper-like, the forelimbs have two claws, and the tail is so short that it does not show through the nails.

The name of this kind of sea turtle is hawksbill, and its main living areas are shallow lagoons and coral reefs. Many caves and deep valleys in the coral reefs provide it with resting places. The main food sponge of hawksbill turtles also lives in the coral reefs. This is a kind that can A sea turtle that digests glass. Xiang Yang introduced to the crew.

The hawksbill's food also includes invertebrates such as jellyfish, sea anemones, shrimps, crabs and shellfish, as well as fish and seaweed. They are distributed in vast oceans and are mainly found in the tropical regions of the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans.

Hawksbill is a large and ferocious carnivorous animal in the ocean. It often appears in coral reefs and mainly preys on fish, shrimp, crabs and molluscs, and also eats seaweed.

It is more mobile and swims faster.

Hawksbills like to forage on coral reefs, continental shelves, or in shallows where brown algae grows.

Although hawksbills are omnivores, their main food is sponges.

Sponges make up 90 percent of the total diet of hawksbill populations.

However, hawksbills generally only forage on a few specific sponge species, such as the spongy sponges and the spongy spongyes.

In addition to sponges, the hawksbill's diet includes algae and cnidarians such as jellyfish and sea anemones.

In addition, hawksbills also prey on the extremely dangerous hydrozoan man-of-war.

The hawksbill will close its unprotected eyes when preying on those cnidarians, and the cnidocytes of highly poisonous animals such as the man-of-war jellyfish cannot penetrate the scaly head of the hawksbill, so the hawksbill will not be threatened .

Hawksbills also sometimes prey on shrimp, crabs and shellfish. Their powerful jaws can crush crab shells and even extremely hard and thick shells, such as bivalves. The hawksbill's mouth provides convenience for it to prey on small shrimps and squid in the crevices of corals, and the hooked mouth like an eagle's beak can easily hook them out.

Hawksbills are highly adaptable and resistant to their prey, and some of the sponges they feed on are highly toxic and often fatal to other organisms. In addition, hawksbill turtles will also choose some sponges rich in siliceous spicules as food.

Because hawksbills have exceptionally strong carapaces, they have few major predators, as few animals can bite through their shells.

Sharks and crocodiles are natural predators of the hawksbill, as are octopuses and certain pelagic fish. And because hawksbills often forage for sponges, they will have an unpleasant smell of some sponges, and because hawksbills eat poisonous sponges and cnidarians, their meat contains a considerable level of toxicity, so sometimes it can make some natural enemies or Humans hold back.

Xiang Yang walked in front of a tortoise shell that was more than one meter in size.

The huge tortoise shell immediately raised its head and looked at Xiang Yang vigilantly.

Xiang Yang didn't care much, because Xiang Yang didn't intend to catch this huge tortoiseshell at all.

Although hawksbill turtles have a ferocious temperament, they will bite people when they are caught, but they will not actively attack humans if they are not harmed.

As long as Xiang Yang doesn't take the initiative to hurt this tortoise shell, but just gets close to it, although it will have a certain amount of hostility towards Xiang Yang, it will never be hostile enough to directly attack Xiang Yang.

At this time, Chen Qingsheng came over from a short distance with a few crew members, and asked, Boss, do you want to catch these tortoise shells?
