Chapter 135
A group of sharks quickly caught up with the fleet and surrounded the whales and were eager to try.
Li Kuan naturally didn't want his prey to enter the shark's pocket.
"Please note that the harpoon gun is shooting at the sharks, but no one can go into the sea, even if the whales are eaten by them, they cannot go down."
If you are fighting whales, the risk of going into the sea is drowning;
Then when you fight with sharks, you may become excrement in someone’s stomach when you go into the sea.
"Swoosh!"
"Swoosh!"
"Swoosh!"
Soon, several other ships followed the flagship and began shooting at the sharks in the water.
"I've won! I've won!"
I don’t know if there are too many sharks or the accuracy rate has increased, but two harpoons launched on the boat hit the shark.
At this time, the shark's weakness is revealed.
If it is a huge whale, it will be like a tickling after being shot, and it will generally not lose its life.
But sharks are different. They are only ten feet long in total, and they are directly ejaculated and penetrated.
"Put the cable away, the shark can't escape."
Cheng Chumo shouted excitedly at the stern of the boat.
These sharks seem to be like this.
"Only one is collected, and another shark is left in the water."
Li Kuan knew that if these sharks were not allowed to eat something in their mouths, they would always follow the fleet, and sooner or later the whales dragged at the stern of the boat would suffer.
So leave a shark in the sea as food for other sharks.
This is mainly because the firing speed of the bed crossbow is still too slow, and it is impossible to kill so many sharks in a short period of time.
...
Wendeng Pier.
"Girl, go back and have some rest. You haven't slept since last night."
Yun'er saw Zixia's thin body standing on the dock, allowing the sea breeze to blow up her clothes.
"No, I'm not sleepy. I slept in the afternoon yesterday. I'll wait a little longer, and the prince should be back soon."
The fleet did not return overnight last night. Although Li Kuan said in advance that he might not return that day, Zixia was still a little worried.
"Hey, Your Highness, the King of Chu is really. The world on land is so big, why are you competing with the sea? Everyone says that the sea monsters in the water cannot be messed with. He is better, so he will take people to hunt and kill the sea monsters himself."
"Yun'er, if you say bad things about King Chu, I won't let you follow you." Zixia glanced at Yun'er with a little unhappy.
"Okay, OK, Your Highness, Your Highness, Your Highness, Your Highness, Your Highness, Your Highness, Your Highness, Your Highness, Your Highness, Your Highness, Your Highness, Your Highness, Your Highness, Your Highness, Your Highness, Your Highness, Your Highness, Your Highness, Your Highness, Your Highness, Your Highness, Your Highness, Your Highness, Your Highness, Your Highness, Your Highness, Your Highness, Your Highness, Your Highness, Your Highness,
...
"The fleet is back!"
"The fleet is back!"
A shout suddenly came from the newly built lighthouse on the dock.
"Clang! Clang! Clang!"
After the gong sounded, everyone at the dock knew that the fleet was back.
"Everyone hurry up and prepare, the fleet is back!"
In the salted fish workshop next to it, Wang Xuance led a team of people to walk towards the dock quickly, ready to pick up the fish caught transported from the boat at any time.
"I'm back before noon, the prince must have succeeded!"
Chu Suiliang said expectantly.
"I heard that the whale is as big as a hill. To be honest, it is still hard to believe it before I saw it." Wang Xuance stood on the dock, holding his glasses and looking into the distance.
One, two, three, four, five!
"Huh!" Wang Xuance breathed a sigh of relief. There were many ships in the fleet, and it seemed that it was probably successful.
Soon, news of the East China Sea fishery fleet returning from fishing for "sea monsters" spread. Before the fleet could dock, the dock was already crowded with people.
Some were watching the fun, some were the family members of the crew, and some were Wang Xuance and others who were preparing to help.
Wendeng Pier has never been as lively as it is today!
Most of the sea monsters that are seven or eight feet long want to come and see them.
"Look, everyone, is there something behind the boat in front?"
As the fleet got closer, some sharp-eyed people in the crowd had already found something to drag behind the flagship.
"Wow, it seems that I'm really dragging something big."
Although most of the whale was in the water, as the ship got closer and closer to the dock, people on the shore discovered the situation.
However, this is not the most surprising moment for everyone.
When the fleet spent all its efforts and with the help of the newly-established pulley set on the dock, no one on the scene was not shocked!
Two feet tall and eight feet long, this is definitely the largest animal that everyone has ever seen in their lifetime.
"Don't stand there, hurry up and isolate the crowd and make room to prepare for handling the whales!" After Li Kuan got off the boat, he found that everyone was staring at the whales stupidly without any movement.
"Prince, how should I deal with this whale?" Wang Xuance looked at the giant creature in front of him, feeling a little unsure of how to start.
"Cleave the dock out and place the whale parts in various categories. Whale meat is used to marinate, grease is used to refine whale oil, and the bones are processed and dried and left..."
Li Kuan had never dealt with whales, so he could only rely on some of his own impressions to make Wang Xuance and the people from the salted fish workshop start slaughtering whales.
Cheng Chumo and the others were also excited to help, especially Fang Yiai. They picked up a big knife, climbed directly onto the whale's back, and began to cut.
Soon, the entire dock was filled with whale meat.
However, more and more people continued to come near the dock to witness this historic moment.
"Prince, what should I do with this shark? Have you deal with it together?"
Zhou Erfu looked at the shark that was lifted off the deck in the end and asked Li Kuan what to do.
"You cut off the shark fin and lip and send it to the county government office. The other meat should be processed with whale meat. Eat whatever you want, marinate what you can't eat, and keep it for later or sell it."
The taste of whale meat was eaten by Li Kuan when he went to Japan in his later generations, so it was not very good.
But the shark's fin and lip were the two treasures among the eight treasures, and today I was just ready to taste them.
I didn't eat and sleep well on the boat. After giving instructions to Wang Xuance and Chu Suiliang, Li Kuan went back first.
On the wharf, although the whale meat that costs five cents per pound is much more expensive than the previous big yellow croaker, it was sold for tens of thousands of pounds very quickly.
No one has ever eaten whale meat, and they all want to try it out.
Even the homes of wealthy businessmen and wealthy families in Dengzhou Prefecture bought a bunch of whale meat to taste.
"It smells so good!"
"tasty!"
“Very chewy!”
On that day, many families in Dengzhou Prefecture were tasting whale meat.
I don’t know if it’s because I spent more money or because I’ve never eaten it before. Although the group of people felt that it seemed to be as delicious as the big yellow croaker, they kept praising her.
Well, this is probably one of human nature!
