It was Qin Shiou's idea to embezzle the money for the treatment of the fish disaster in Shenbao Lake to expand tourism channels, so when he encounters trouble in this regard, he needs to help.

  The most important thing is that he has nothing to do, so he can't lie on the beach all day and bask in the sun, right?

  Not only did he help himself, Qin Shiou also took Ivorson and Nelson, and drove to the lake in the morning, where Hamley, wearing a small vest and suit, was already waiting there. In addition, dozens of large and small fishing boats are docked by the lake, and fishing nets are placed on the shore.

   Seeing Qin Shiou, Hamley came up to shake hands enthusiastically, and then said: "Have you eaten?"

   "What?" Qin Shiou didn't react for a while.

Hamley smiled and said, "Isn’t this the most commonly used greeting for you Chinese? I recently invited a professor who has studied Chinese language and literature from the School of Foreign Languages ​​of St. John’s University, and I am going to come to town to open a class for everyone. Let’s talk about the culture and customs of your country."

  Qin Shiou suddenly realized that this civil servant really spared no effort to develop the economy of the small town. He really took the development of the tourism industry as a matter of business.

   "Eat, man, breakfast is great, have you eaten?" Qin Shiou replied.

  Hamley sighed and said, “I haven’t eaten it yet, **** it, why don’t the masters of Maple Leaf City sit in the office and listen to our good news? It will cause us problems.”

  Qin Shiou was choked. It seems that Hamley does not have a deep understanding of the culture of ‘meal greetings’. How can he answer this? This is a Chinese-style question and a European-style answer.

After   , people arrived one after another. Hamley found the backbone, including Qin Shiou, and introduced: "This time. We are going to perform a purse seine to catch Asian carp. Give an explanation to the master above, is it okay?"

  Hughes laughed and said: "God, this is really a job. Purse seine for Asian carp has proved to be a failed choice."

   Hamley said: "We are just here to deal with it, do you really want to kill our God of Wealth?"

  After Hamley’s promotion, many people in the town knew that the Asian carp, which they regarded as a disaster, would become a special project in the tourism industry.

  After arrangement, start to work. Qin Shiou took Nelson and Ivorson aboard a boat, put on the seine and went into the water.

  The purse seine is a kind of netting equipment for catching cluster fishes. During operation, the netting equipment can be used to surround the fish school, forcing the fish clusters in the net sac, and then catching all the nets.

  This is a relatively effective traditional fishing gear, especially for pelagic fish resources in ocean lakes, which is very efficient. In the past, Newfoundland fisheries used this tool and method to catch cod.

   until now. Purse seine fishery is still the main force in the world’s fisheries. The annual catch can account for 20%-30% of the total marine catch. With the improvement of fishing technology and the popularization of modern fish detection equipment, the scope of purse seine fishing continues Enlarged, it can even catch fishes in the bottom of the ocean.

  Nielsen rowed to the center of the lake and said: "There must be a lot of fish here, how about we start from here?"

  Qin Shiou gestured to come casually. Ivorson took control of the fishing grounds, and Nelson cooperated with Qin Shiou to start to get off the net.

  The purse seine is actually to enclose the net for fishing. This net is a bit like a funnel with one end cut-the funnel opens upwards, with a bag and two wings.

The so-called sac is a stress point at the bottom of the funnel. The two wings are the two sides of the fishing net. After the fishing net is scattered into the lake, the two wings are folded, as if the funnel is closed, and the enclosed fish will be wrapped in the fishing net. . But it can't run.

  Fishing nets are scattered. Ivorson rowed the boat fast. After a while, Qin Shiou felt that it was almost done. He gave Nelson a look, and the two began to close the net.

  Be careful when you close the network. Slowly gather the wings of the fishing net, and then don't immediately pull the fishing net. Instead, he drove the fishing grounds to the shore and dragged the fishing nets to walk in the lake for a while. As a result, the edges of the fishing net become entangled, and the fish inside cannot escape.

  The fishing boat drew ashore. At this time, two Buick Regal drove over. It was the government car of the farewell town. The car was parked on the shore of the lake, and a group of middle-aged men in straight suits walked down.

  Qin Shiou looked up and saw that this group of people dressed up like dogs, a human elite, apparently the officials arranged by Ottawa to check the fish disaster control work.

   From the outside, these officials are no different from those in the country who are inspecting work everywhere, but they are a lot thinner, and people who are bloated or obese or have a beer belly did not appear.

  The same thing is that these officials were accompanied by a TV interview team. A female host wearing an OL professional suit said a few words to the camera, and then interviewed these officials and Mayor Hamley.

Hamley is a veteran in this area, and he said a few concisely. It is nothing more than how important Lake Shenbao is to the town, how harmful is the Asian carp to Lake Shenbao, and how we will manage it after receiving funding from the Congress. Asian carp disaster.

   are all useless clichés. After hearing a few sentences, Qin Shiou lost interest in it, and started pulling a fishing net wholeheartedly.

  He and Ivorson are both brute force. Nelson is responsible for locking the wings of the fishing net, so that as the fishing net drags up, the big Asian carps are pulled ashore.

  The trawl nets used this time are all five-centimeter-diameter meshes, which can only catch large fish. Some small local fishes can easily escape even if they are surrounded by fishing nets.

  Qin Shiou’s net caught a lot of Asian carps. It seems that there are more than 20, each of which has a length of 70 or 80 centimeters, which has great visual impact.

In this way, he became a benchmark. Hamley brought a reporter from the TV station to him. The female reporter first asked Nelson. The latter shrugged and pointed at Qin Shiou and said: "If you have any questions, please ask our boss, I am a part-time worker. Aberdeen."

  The female reporter didn’t expect Qin Shiou, a Chinese American, to be the boss here, so she turned around to cover up her embarrassment and asked him, “Sir, did you catch this net fish?”

  Qin Shiou secretly asked you or him, isn’t this nonsense? Lao Tzu is holding the fishing net right in front of your eyes, but who did Lao Tzu's fishing?

  He coughed and calmly said: "I didn't catch it."

  The female reporter was taken aback, Qin Shiou added: “It was caught by our team. Looking at the two friends around me, they put more effort into it than me.”

  Hearing this, the female reporter smiled and said: "You are really an excellent team. How long did it take to catch these fish?"

  Okay, the topic comes, Qin Shiou said: "Oh, it doesn't take long, about 20 minutes to 25 minutes."

It took more than 20 minutes to catch so many 20 Asian carps, and his fishing boat is still very efficient. Normally, it takes less than half an hour to collect so many fish. This is why purse seine fishing is right. The reason why the control of the Asian carp disaster is ineffective.

  On this efficiency, it is estimated that if you catch a hundred fish, the fish father and mother in the lake can give birth to a thousand small fish, and the method of purse seine fishing is ineffective for small fish.

  In other words, this is a working method that treats the symptoms but not the root cause. (To be continued~^~)
