228. Chapter 226 Be a Companion



[Successfully caught a Japanese eel, weighing 2.32 catties, experience +5. ]

As the first white eel, still alive and kicking, was pulled out of the water, the tone was set for the rest of the harvest.

The white eel looks very fierce with its sharp teeth and beak, and its body twists like a snake.

Fortunately, Zhang Ze doesn't need to catch it to remove the fishhook or cut the fishing line. He can directly put it into the space, which is less dangerous.

As a fisherman, it is normal to be accidentally injured by fish.

The second one was also a big white eel, even over one meter long, quite large.

White eels can survive in fresh water. In autumn and winter, they will go along the estuary to the deep sea to spawn, and they usually move in groups.

If you catch one during this season by longline fishing, the next few hooks you pull up will basically be white eels, and the number will be extremely outrageous.

The price of white eel was not bad. If he sold it to Jin Guangcheng, he should get 32 ​​cents. But he had to leave some for Zhao Xianghua. White eel was a very good ingredient and was often used in their restaurant.

When it comes to white eels, many people may not know much about them.

But in fact, the dried eels on the market are basically made from white eels.

It is of course incomparable to the oil-cone fish, the flesh is thinner and there are more thorns.

But there are only a few oil cones and they are expensive, while white eels can be caught in one nest at a time.

Zhang Ze saw some small red patches on the bottom of the fish finder last night and thought the resources here were pretty good, but he didn't know that this was the nest of white eels.

Look, after catching all the fish with two longlines, there were only ten other miscellaneous fish in total, and the rest were all white eels, a total of 892. On average, the catch with one longline was over 400, and the catching rate was quite high.

Zhang Ze looked at the weight, one thousand eight hundred and thirty-nine kilograms, and he gained four thousand four hundred and sixty experience points just from this.

However, among the nearly 900 white eels, 57 were carrying a relatively large number of parasites.

Zhang Ze selected them separately and placed them in the corner on the other side of the space, then used the conversion function. It didn't cost much, only 1,324 experience points.

The experience points required to convert parasites are not much, but the conversion of toxins is the big deal.

This batch of converted white eels can be sold to restaurants in due course, after all, the price offered there will be higher.

Putting the longline aside, Zhang Ze washed his hands and then drove the boat to the archipelago.

I didn’t go to the same place as last time today. I caught so many king fish there. I should have a chance to catch some if I go to another place.

Of course, under the archipelago is a continuous reef, which may have different heights and depths, but is basically connected.

So the fish may be in the east today and in the west tomorrow.

Logically speaking, there would be many reefs in such terrain, and it would be very dangerous for fishing boats to sail here, but in fact the depth here is very good, with the shallowest place being about 20 meters. As long as you don't get too close to the small isolated islands, there will be no problem.

It was drizzling today and the sea water was a little more turbid than the last time I came here.

Fortunately, it wasn’t too muddy, otherwise we wouldn’t be able to catch any fish.

Take out the fishing rod and install a medium-sized fishing reel. You can catch fish weighing 100 kilograms at the top and 3 kilograms at the bottom.

For bait, Zhang Ze still prefers grouper bait.

The lower limit of grouper is high. Even the cheap blue grouper can be sold for one yuan per pound. This is not comparable to ordinary coral fish.

If you change to ordinary bait, you may catch very valuable fish, but it is likely to be black porgy, rock porgy, parrotfish, and even many worthless ornamental fish.

After hanging the bait and lowering the rod, a fish was hooked in just a few seconds. The force felt not strong, so Zhang Ze turned off the line-release switch and quickly reeled in the fish.

It was a grouper weighing a little over two pounds, with no ciguatera poison or parasites, which made him a little disappointed.

Because the meat of grouper of this weight is tender and the most delicious, he wants to save some for his family.

Since there is no way to use the conversion function, let's wait for the next target.

Ever since Zhang Ze started to cheat, his family's health has been getting better and better under the influence of the physical aura.

With the good food, the girls became more and more beautiful. Even Zhang Wu became much whiter and taller than before.

In just one year, his height grew from a little over 1.2 meters to a little over 1.4 meters, which was not considered short among his peers.

You have to know that basically all of his classmates in school come from well-off families, have never lacked food or nutrition since childhood, and are generally taller than children from poor families.

Zhang Wu caught up with the average level in just one year, which is quite good.

He will continue to grow very fast, maybe he can grow to 1.8 meters. In this era, 1.8 meters is considered tall even in the north.

In his previous life, Zhang Wu was less than 1.7 meters tall.

Coming back to his senses, Zhang Ze had a satisfied smile on his face. It seemed that all the regrets of his previous life had been changed. Now he just needed to work hard to make his life better.

I continued fishing, and after catching more than thirty groupers in a row, the time it took to hook the fish became slower and slower.

After waiting for another two minutes, there was still no movement on the fish hook. Zhang Ze reeled in the fishing line, took out the grouper bait and put it into the bait space, then took out the ordinary bait.

Apparently he had almost caught all the groupers nearby, and it would take some time for the groupers from far away to come over, so he decided to see what he could catch with ordinary bait first.

If that doesn't work, it won't be too late to sail to another location.

The only regret is that there is no problem with the groupers today, even the tiger grouper which is most likely to accumulate ciguatera toxin.

This means that there is no seaweed carrying ciguatera toxin on this side of the archipelago. Last time, there was a small amount of seaweed carrying ciguatera toxin, which probably swam over from other places.

Zhang Ze felt that he had some free time, so he could go out and look for it.

To others, the fishing spot with poisonous seaweed is a dead end, but to him it is a treasure land.

After changing to ordinary bait, the situation where the bait moved as soon as it was thrown into the water happened again.

But the fish was still not big, so Zhang Ze quickly flew it up.

It turned out to be a highly poisonous porcupinefish.

Zhang Ze looked at the pufferfish in front of him, his eyes gradually brightening.

In the past, before there were chefs who specialized in processing puffer fish, he would have released the puffer fish even if it tasted delicious.

But now. [Successfully caught a round fish, weighing 1.26 kg, experience +15. ]

Zhang Ze had no research on pufferfish and was not aware that the roundmouth mullet was a very delicious fish. Although it was highly poisonous, it was a relatively popular pufferfish in daily life.

In terms of taste alone, it should be slightly inferior to the very famous redfin pufferfish.

Unfortunately, the redfin pufferfish is only found in the Yellow Sea, Bohai Sea and the East China Sea. There are many pufferfish in the South China Sea, but Zhang Ze doesn’t know if there is any that can compare to the redfin pufferfish.

He selected the roundmouth bass that he had stored in the space, chose the conversion function, and spent 100 experience points to remove the toxins from the fish for a week.

The liver and ovaries of the round fish are highly poisonous and cannot be eaten.

The skin, testicles and fish meat are not poisonous. However, it is not recommended to slaughter fish unless you are a professional, even if you know where the poison is.

Because if something unexpected happens, the grass on the grave may be one meter high next year.

But Zhang Ze is not afraid at all now. He still won't eat livers, but he can slaughter the non-toxic round fish without worrying about poisoning himself and his family.

From now on, he can enjoy the delicious pufferfish without any worries.

Zhang Ze finally understood that this might be the significance of the new function of the system.

He was in a good mood and put on some ordinary bait. Now he hoped to catch more delicious pufferfish.

However, usually what you wish for will not come true, but your luck may not be bad.

Because at this moment he felt a huge force coming from the fishing rod. Even the largest pufferfish could not have this kind of force. This was a big fish! The medium-hard fishing rod was not under the force, and the tip of the rod was directly pulled under the side of the boat, and it looked like it was about to break.

Zhang Ze simply held the fishing rod in his arms and pulled it up. The fishing rod would not be damaged. What was he afraid of?

Under the pull of the fish, the fishing reel kept making alarm sounds as if it could not bear the heavy load, and the fishing line was still pulled out little by little even though he tried to stop it.

Zhang Zeren had already leaned against the side of the boat to gain leverage, but the fish was too big and he couldn't stop it at all.

The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!

This is a fish that is not fast, but definitely very large and powerful.

Giant grouper, or some other large fish? Zhang Ze couldn't guess, because he had caught similar fish several times before.

But he was happy about one thing because this was most likely a king fish.

He felt that if he changed places, he might encounter the king fish, and he didn't expect that he actually did.

This was the time when the fish was at its most ferocious. After Zhang Ze roughly understood the situation of the fish, he leaned against the side of the boat and let the fish continue to pull the fishing line.

He couldn't stop it anyway. Whether the fish wanted to run or hit the stake, the final result would be that it would get tired.

And with his strength, if he goes head-on with the fish, he will most likely end up catching the fish's mouth.

Zhang Ze had encountered such a thing before. In his previous life, he went to a reservoir to fish. He tried to pull the fish hard and ended up tearing off the entire mouth of a grass carp.

In the end, the fish ran away and he didn’t know whether it survived or not. Anyway, he only got a fish mouth.

This shouldn't be considered a failure?

Half an hour later, even though the temperature was very cool today, Zhang Ze still began to sweat after exerting continuous effort for a long time.

Fortunately, the fish finally got tired, its strength weakened and it began to rest.

"Finally it's my turn!"

Zhang Ze pulled the fishing rod hard and took two steps back. The muscles on his arms bulged and made his long sleeves very tight. The outlines of strong muscles were immediately visible, and the male hormones immediately filled his nose.

This is the muscle that Tong Shuyao can't let go of. She has to touch it every time she sleeps together.

At this moment, the big fish that was originally swimming slowly away was suddenly stopped.

It didn't expect such a sudden force, which pulled it so hard that it felt unbearable pain and swam uncontrollably a short distance towards the surface of the water.

Zhang Ze on the boat took several deep breaths and slowly gathered all his strength. Now the battle had really begun.

Compared with the previous two months, his physical fitness has improved significantly.

The same fish was very difficult to catch before, but now the difficulty has been reduced by more than a little.

But the big fish will not lie down so easily, and its resistance is even more intense than before.

The two sides kept pulling each other. You pulled the line back to five meters, and it pulled away three meters.

Zhang Ze and the big fish were in a tug of war over and over again. Every time the fishing line was pulled out a few meters, he would use greater force to pull it back a little more, so overall the fish was getting closer and closer to him.

In this situation, both the man and the fish gave their all, but the big fish under the water fought even harder.

It instinctively felt that if it left, it might just disappear.

However, after more than an hour, it still lay flat on the water.

It tried hard and struggled, but unfortunately this is its fate, so it might as well just lie down!

As for Zhang Ze, he laughed when he saw the big yellow, green and blue fish on the water! "Damn, I spent a lot of time and effort fishing for most of the day, but I caught a fish that is not easy to sell?"

Yes, this yellow, green and blue color belongs to the largest coral fish, the Humphead wrasse.

There was a huge humphead wrasse swimming leisurely in the space, but unexpectedly another one came.

But it was impossible for Zhang Ze to release it. Even if this thing grew so big that it could only be used as an ornamental fish, he still had to keep the fish.

At least 300 experience points, and if you are lucky, it can be 30,000 directly.

Judging from the size of the fish, Zhang Ze felt that the probability of him gaining 30,000 experience points was very high, and his space could be directly upgraded by one level.

He pulled the already lying grouper to the stern of the boat, put it into the space to keep it company with the other one, and then a look of joy appeared on his face.

It was truly a king fish, weighing just over 400 kilograms, more than ten kilograms heavier than the one I caught last time.

However, Zhang Ze didn't care that they could now accompany each other. He was more concerned that he finally had enough experience points to use the growth function.

Last time, he deliberately left behind 19.7 jin of grouper, 45.6 jin of grouper and 310 jin of seven-band grouper.

If these three fish kings want to use the growth function, they will need exactly 30,000 experience points. Even if the converted experience points are included, he currently has enough, thanks to the nearly 900 white eels.

Zhang Ze decisively used the growth function and the conversion function. All three fish carried ciguatera toxin, and the seven-banded grouper had the most toxin, so the conversion function cost one thousand experience points, and the other two fish totaled only more than seven hundred.

Now, if he just waits for 24 hours, he can get a 25.6 jin grouper, a 59.3 jin grouper and a 403 jin seven-band grouper.

Seventh Band, he is really looking forward to it! Currently, he is seriously short of money, and he is eager to have enough experience points to increase all the fish in the space, which will increase the profit by 30%.

However, the experience points are not enough, so they can only be used on the key points.

Zhang Ze put the bait on again and continued fishing, while calculating the approximate price of the three king fish in his mind.

If it's rat grouper, it might sell for one hundred yuan per pound, which is two thousand five hundred yuan.

The price of grouper will be cheaper, but such a big one will also have a premium. I estimate that it will be no problem to sell it for 81 kilograms, which is more than 4,700 yuan.

Zhang Ze once sold a seven-banded grouper weighing more than 270 kilograms for 3,500 yuan.

Therefore, its unit price is far lower than that of rat grouper and Oriental grouper.

But this time the fish weighed 400 kilograms. Zhang Ze believed that Zhao Xianghua might not be able to catch such a big grouper king for several years.

Moreover, the advantage of seven-band grouper is obvious: the bigger it is, the tastier it is.

It's just over 400 kilograms, so selling it for 8,000 yuan isn't too much, right? (End of this chapter)
