262. The rich man of Qin

Qin Shiou's yacht leaned against the dock, and Old James passed the fish he caught one by one, mainly tuna, without bluefin tuna, but with masu tuna.

Masu Tuna is also known as Southern Bluefin and Southern Black Tuna. It is a fish that lives in the upper and middle waters of the ocean. It is distributed in the temperate and cold oceans of the Indian Ocean and the Pacific Ocean. It is also a precious tuna, second only to Atlantic Bluefin Tuna.

This type of fish is also relatively large, but it is much smaller than bluefin tuna. It is generally 160 cm long, up to 245 cm long, and up to 260 kg weight.

Their gender ratio is mostly female among young fish, and the opposite is true among adult fish, so it is difficult to see female fish. Qin Shiou has caught four masu tuna these days, all of which are male fish. Otherwise, if it is a female fish, he will take it back to Daqin Fishery for breeding.

Qin Shiou sat on the deck and watched Old James busy up and down with his pipe in his arms. Anfanie came over to confirm the bill with him. Looking at the slim girl, he whistled with a wicked smile, pretending to touch Anfanie's perky butt.

He learned this from the fishermen. Every fisherman in Gloucester Harbor wanted to take advantage of the granddaughter of Old James, but no one could succeed. Anfanie had a bad temper and was a standard little pepper.

As a result, Xiao Chili turned into a soft finger at this moment. She did not avoid it, but raised an ambiguous eyebrow at Qin Shiou, and her plump cherry lips drew a tempting curve, and the meaning was self-evident.

Qin Shiou choked, he just wanted to learn from the fishermen to tease the girl, but he was actually teased by the opponent.

The fishermen who noticed this scene laughed, and Old Kent said to Old James: "Old man, your granddaughter is moved. You are going to lose her."

Old James smiled and looked at Qin Shiou, saying, "If she chose Captain Lucky, I would be very happy."

Qin Shiou spread his hands and said, "If I don't have a girlfriend, I will definitely be moved."

This is not perfunctory. Although Anfanie has been working in the dock for a long time, she has bad skin, but she looks beautiful. When she smiles, she has a sweet dimples on her right cheek, which is charming and cute.

In addition, her figure is considered top-notch among sexy American girls, with tall peaks and beautiful buttocks. When the long legs were closed, there was no gap. Qin Shiou had only seen such beautiful legs in Winnie.

After hearing his words, the girl glanced at him shyly and resentfully. Qin Shiou could only shrugged helplessly. He was always more conservative. He felt that since he chose Winnie, he had to be responsible for others. It was simple and enjoyable to be flirted outside, but was that something a man should do?

He didn't know that what really attracted these enthusiastic girls was not his black gold centurion card, but his restraint and responsibility for the family, in the hearts of mature girls. This thing is worthless!

A person who can control his * can always make a fortune as long as he is not stupid. If such a person is responsible for his family, he will be a perfect man!

Handing the bill and check to Qin Shiou, Anfanie explained gently: "Because there is still half a month left to go to the end of the masu tuna season, the market premium of fresh fish is now 40%, and the price is almost catching up with the bluefin tuna. The price of yellowfin tuna has dropped slightly. This time your masu tuna harvests 1,500 pounds and 2,800 pounds of yellowfin tuna. A total of 42,000 yuan."

The masutuna fish seasons are June, July and August, and their spawning seasons throughout the southern summer from September to March.

A female fish lays about 14 to 15 million eggs every year. This period is the golden season to protect this endangered fish, and fishing and hunting are strictly prohibited. Therefore, the price begins to rise at this time.

Qin Shiou accepted the check, which was his last harvest in Gloucester. The rest of his life was to deal with the gold coins, and he no longer planned to go out to sea.

At four o'clock in the afternoon, the salvage ship brought by Billy returned to the port, and fishing boats came back early, spreading the news that the Eagle Ocean gold coins were found to every corner of the small town.

After hearing this news, the whole town was sensational, and all the fishermen sighed, why didn’t they have such good luck? That was 40,000 gold coins, worth more than 50 million US dollars!

The current price of gold in the United States is $1,225 per ounce, while the 1907 version of the $20 Eagle Gold Coin is 1.001 ounce, which is 31.109 grams. If sold at the price of gold, one can sell for about $1,300.

After getting ashore, Billy told reporters that they will count the gold coins overnight tonight and a press conference will be held tomorrow afternoon to explain the gains.

After sending the reporters, Billy found Qin Shiou as soon as possible, hugged him and said excitedly: "Qin, my good guy, you are so awesome! You are God, you are the sea god Poseidon! Guy, I am a little sarcastic. You know, no matter who encounters such a thing, you will be as excited as me!"

"You actually found this group of Eagle Yang. Please forgive me for your doubts about you. This is almost a miracle! Over the past hundred years, at least a thousand salvage teams have been here and swept George's shoal ten thousand times, but no one found a gold coin. Yes, even a single gold coin was not found!"

"Where are the remaining two boxes of gold coins?" Qin Shiou asked. He was still worried about the eight thousand gold coins.

Billy laughed when he heard his question and explained, "Do you remember, I told you that the Eagle Ocean shipwreck and the treasures on the Frankenstein are worth 20 million. Why do you say that?"

"Because after this small ship sinks to the bottom of the sea, Shenbao actually has a loss-making ratio, such as being washed away by water, swallowed by big fish, rusting or oxidizing."

"In short, if you can catch 40% of the small ship Shenbao, it is a success. The value of 20 million is calculated based on the probability of 40%. Being able to catch 40% Shenbao is already a great victory, but I never expected that you actually found 80% Shenbao, which is simply incredible!"

"But there is still 20%." Qin Shiou said regretfully.

"So what? Don't worry about the 20%. Qin, as a senior diver, I want to tell you a truth. If you catch Shenbao in the ocean, you should stop when you see it. Don't be too greedy! These Shenbao are all guarded by evil spirits and resentful spirits. We are snatching food from the tiger's mouth! That 20% is regarded as their burial objects, and we can't ask for more!" Billy, who has always liked to smile, became so serious that he became rare.

Qin Shiou shrugged and said, "There will always be people who go to the tiger's mouth to seize food, but forget it, these are enough. A rough estimate of how much profit can it get?"

Hearing the income, Billy became happy again and said, "This batch of gold coins is well preserved. At least one tenth of them can be sold for antique gold coins. One price is around 10,000 US dollars. The rest can only be melted into gold. If we calculate it this way, we can leave about 32 million after paying the tax."

"You are teasing me? There are only 32 million?" Qin Da Qian was angry. This account was wrong. (To be continued)
