503. Relax

As a fast-swimming predator and a long-distance running expert who needs to swim all the time to obtain oxygen to survive, in order to adapt to high-speed and long-term movement, the bluefin tuna has heat-producing muscles in its body, so it can be said that it is a 'hot-blooded' fish.

After catching tuna in this way, you need to bleed it as soon as it dies, otherwise the heat in the blood will be transferred to the fish that is cooled due to death, which will damage the meat of the fish.

Putting away the fishing net, the big tuna that was still struggling was dragged onto the fishing boat. Fortunately, Qin Shiou drove out of the port on the Harvest this time. If it was a fishing boat, it would be troublesome. He could not accommodate a super large tuna that was more than four meters long.

What is the concept of a bluefin tuna that is more than four meters long? When the crane lifts the fish, Qin Shiou and his group need to look up hard to see the whole picture of the fish!

After hanging the tuna, Shaq and the sea monster quickly took off the gills, carefully cut the fish's belly and took out the internal organs to let it go.

Of course, before doing this, the group took a photo with the big fish. They broke the record of tuna size that Newfoundland has maintained at least twenty years. The last time they caught a four-meter-long tuna was in the 1990s.

Seeing Shaq and the Sea Monster dealing with the big fish, Yanbing said with regret: "What a pity Captain, if this is the fish season, then our fish might not be able to apply for a record at the Fishing Association, which is a million bonus."

Fishing in North America is a national sport, but the rich are really keen on playing. The anglers association is what made by such a group of boring people. These guys have a lot of money, many fish have bonuses, and the prize pool is very high.

The big tuna caught by Qin Shiou and his group not only breaks the Newfoundland record, but also breaks the world record. The previous world record was maintained by a New Zealand female fisherman.

The female fisherman named Donna Pasker caught a Pacific bluefin tuna weighing 4,116 kg the year before yesterday and received a $2.2 million bonus.

The crane on the Harvest has no weighing function, but this big tuna must be more than four meters long, more than half a meter longer than the fish caught by Donna, and weighs at least 550 kilograms, so it is certain to break the world record.

Unfortunately, it is not the fishing season for bluefin tuna that Canada stipulates, so this fish cannot be displayed in a grand manner - not to mention that this fish was caught in its own fishing grounds. The Canadian Fisheries Department does not care, because artificially domesticated bluefin tuna is still a legend so there is no possibility of private breeding of this fish.

North America has very strict regulations on fishing for bluefin tuna. Previously, another female New Zealand tourist, Pas, caught a 400-kilogram large bluefin tuna. But because she was not on a commercial fishing boat at that time, she could not sell the fish for profit, so in addition to getting the bonus, the fish could only be made into a specimen and placed at home as a souvenir.

Qin Shiou didn't care about this. He had a way to deal with this bluefin tuna going to the Tokyo market, otherwise he wouldn't have caught it.

Of course, he also has to apply for a world record, after all, this is the first world record he has broken.

After stuffing a large amount of ice into the gills and abdomen of the bluefin tuna, Qin Shiou and the fishermen returned to the fishing ground with a chat and laughing.

Because it was caught in the fishing ground, this fish belongs to Qin Shiou’s personal, and the fishermen helped him work, so there was no dividend this time.

Qin Shiou is generous but not blind. He will increase his income to his fishermen within the maximum allowable range of the rules, but if he should not share the money for the fishermen according to the rules, he will not pay extra money.

He still understands the principle of fighting Mien and beating Mi revenge.

Although the fishermen were still happy, because as long as the captain had money, their salary would be settled. The richer the captain was, the more secure their salary would be. The long-term flow was more important than getting rich overnight.

Although I won’t give the fishermen money, Qin Shiou still showed some: “Guys, go back and clean up the work you have. I won’t have to work in the fishing grounds for the rest of my time. Go to the bar to have fun, I’ll treat you! I’ll give you a day off tomorrow and enjoy your life!”

"Long live, Captain!" the fishermen cheered.

Behind the dock, the fishermen dragged the bluefin tuna into the ice warehouse and sealed it up, and then went to the town's Shining Star Bar together to play.

After arriving in the town, Qin Shiou saw a bunch of machines emitting on the street. He knew that this was the equipment needed for the construction of the base station transported by Motorola, so he went over to ask about the progress of the project.

Frank Kent was not there, and a staff member who was debugging the exchange software told him that he was going to find a suitable base station host installation location on Mount Kambal. However, he also knew the progress of the project, and it took about one week to ten days to complete the construction of the base station cluster.

Qin Shiou looked at it and found that the main accessories of the base station cluster were all complete, including the base station host, controller, transceiver, amplifier, combiner, power supply, etc., which were arranged neatly and in an orderly manner. The machine was brand new and with the eye-catching ‘m’ logo.

Since he decided to build a base station cluster, Qin Shiou also learned about this thing carefully after returning. He didn't understand the working principle of these accessories, but he could tell whether it was good or bad.

It can be seen that Frank Kent is a relatively reliable person in his work. The base station controller uses the bsc-aa101 series, which is currently the most advanced and best-known machine in the world. It has functions to handle all the base stations and exchanges, and provides an internal clock for time and frequency synchronization.

In order to enhance the signal of the entire system, Frank also equipped the base station with redundant controllers, so that in the event of a failure, the redundant backup base station controller will automatically start work without human intervention.

This is very important for saying goodbye to an environment like the island. The island is prone to severe weather attacks such as storms and tsunamis. The crystal oscillator and GPS receiver inside the controller are prone to problems. With a backup base station, it will be much more reliable.

I felt that there was nothing wrong, so Qin Shiou thanked and went to the bar. The fishermen were already sitting and chatting. Bartender Neil specially left a good place for Qin Shiou on the bar.

The bar is one of the most benefited by the tourism industry. Visitors will come to the bar for a few drinks without any activity at night to experience the quiet and soothing atmosphere of the small town bars.

Neil made a simple decoration of the bar, with a different style, close to quiet and natural style, and the music is soft most of the time, turning the bar into a chat bar.

Qin Shiou sat behind Neil and gave him a glass of ice wine, and asked with interest: "I heard that you have found a big fish that can break the world record? It's not fake, right? You know, those mixed balls dare to say anything after drinking wine."

"This time is true," Qin Shiou smiled, "We are lucky and got a big tuna." (To be continued) r466
