"Stop the ship for inspection!" Several ships surrounded the'Vladimir', and someone shouted.
Xiao Peng stretched his head and shouted, "The ship is stopping! Hey, you are going to stop the ship for inspection. Always tell us the reason for stopping the ship for inspection, right?"
A man in the uniform of the Colombian military said: "We are the joint law enforcement of the Colombian Fisheries Department and the Narcotics Enforcement Department. I am Moreno Guarin from the Colombian Fisheries Department. I suspect that this ship is harboring drugs and IUU fishing, so I want to board. Ship inspection."
Xiao Peng turned his head and saw a boat next to him: "Hey, it's you! You check me once this day!" The person he greeted was not someone else, it was the marine anti-narcotics team that checked him on the yacht yesterday. team leader. what do you say that is? Julio Rodriguez! Yes, just call this name.
"Captain Rodriguez, you are busy enough, running around every day!" Xiao Peng raised his hand to say hello.
Rodriguez saw Xiao Peng and laughed: "There is no way. Our AS monitoring found that your ship has been parked here, suspecting that it is here waiting for the drug transfer."
Xiao Peng smiled and replied: "I don't want to stop here either. My fishing net cable is broken, and I'm fishing here. Okay, don't say anything, hurry up and get on the boat. What to check."
Rogers leaned the boat to the side of the boat, and a group of people got on the boat and saw Xiaoqiu and others on the back deck busy clearing the fishing nets.
"What's going on?" Guarin asked.
Xiao Peng smiled and said; "Don't mention it, this man is going to be unlucky, and his mouth is stuck between his teeth. When I was in the Gulf of Alaska, my fishing net was scraped, and today I wanted to have someone repair the net, but it was good and the cable broke. The whole fishing net fell into the sea. It took a long time to catch it."
Gua Lin looked around, "Can I take a look at the fish hold?"
"Of course!" Xiao Peng took them directly into the cabin and opened the freezing cabin: "I only have haddock and Pacific flounder on board, as well as several other Arctic fish caught in the Gulf of Alaska, as well as snow. Crabs and king crabs. There are no Caribbean fish, please check it out."
Gua Lin glanced at the freezing cabin and frowned, "Sir, I want to see other cabins."
Xiao Peng smiled and said, "The other fish tanks are empty, and there is no need to check them."
Gua Lin couldn't even look at the freezing cabin, and said to Xiao Peng, "I want to see your other fish cabins."
Xiao Peng pointed to the freezing compartment: "Then can I turn off the freezing compartment? It costs more electricity here."
After Gua Lin said ‘um’. The commander went to check the other cabins. Xiao Peng blinked. This person is still like this. They don't watch it if they take the initiative to show them, and those curious ones who don't take the initiative to show them can't do it. What a thing.
The inspection by the Ministry of Fisheries was quickly completed. After all, the cabins were empty, the fishing nets were broken, and the spare nets were not opened. There are no traces of illegal fishing.
However, the anti-narcotics brigade inspected it more carefully. It did not relax the inspection because of Xiao Peng's inspection yesterday. Nothing in the bow cabin, stern cabin, cargo warehouse, machinery warehouse, boiler warehouse, or any other place was spared.
Xiao Peng watched that the inspection could not be completed for a while, so he simply asked Xiaoqiu to prepare something to eat and drink, and said to Guarin, "Mr. Guarin, Rogers and the others won't be able to complete the inspection in a while, come here. Taste the seafood I brought from the Persian Gulf. They are relatively rare here. And this beer, I brought from our home country, is the best beer in the world. Anyway, your work here has been completed. . Come over and drink two glasses."
"How embarrassing is this?" Guarin said so, but his expression had already betrayed him. Look at the snow crabs and king crab legs on the table in the hills, as well as lobsters and fried cod steaks, etc. These things are really rare here, even if they are expensive. It's not an exaggeration to say that many of them don't even talk about eating, they have never seen them.
Xiao Peng smiled and said: "Relying on the mountains to eat the mountains, relying on the sea to eat the sea, these things are not precious things here at all, we have eaten enough. Don't worry, these are all legally caught, now, this is our star The ration certificates for legal fishing in all countries. These are all legally caught, not IUU fishing. Okay, I don’t know when Rogers and the others are busy. Don’t worry, I’m not. They will be poisoned here. After all, Rogers and the others haven’t eaten it yet? Alright, don’t hesitate to eat it! We Chinese are your friends, aren’t we?
"In this case, we are not polite. Brothers, come and taste it, don't disappoint Mr. Xiao's kindness!" Gua Lin recruited.
Sun Pengcheng asked curiously: "Brother Peng, what do they mean by IUU fishing? And are we here on the open sea? How can they come here to investigate?"
Xiao Peng explained: "IUU fishing is illegal fishing. As for the high seas. This is indeed the high seas, but you have to know that there are two definitions of the high seas. One is in the country’s exclusive economic zone, which is beyond this. 188 nautical miles is the real high seas. The exclusive economic zone only allows domestic fishing."
Sun Pengcheng scratched his head: "How is this difference?"
Xiao Peng said: "According to international management, two hundred nautical miles of coastal coastline belong to a country, of which twelve nautical miles are territorial waters, and the remaining 188 nautical miles are exclusive economic zones. Of course, this is sometimes an exception, just like our China, 188 nautical miles. The country of plastic surgery has been wrapped up, so the two sides have been fighting over the exclusive economic zone."
After listening to this, Sun Pengcheng suddenly realized that he looked at the delicious Guarin eating over there, with an angry expression on his face: "Did you not see our national flag? Just check it!"
Xiao Peng sighed, "To tell you the truth, it is because it is a Chinese fishing boat that others checked us!"
Sun Pengcheng puzzled: "What does this mean?"
Xiao Peng smiled bitterly: "Do you know how many ocean-going fishing boats our country has? In 2014, there were 2,460. Do you know how many EU countries are? How many star-stripe countries?"
After hearing this, Sun Pengcheng shook his head, Xiao Peng gave the answer: "335 ships in the European Union and 225 ships in the Stars and Stripes!"
"Huh?" Sun Pengcheng's eyes widened: "Is this figure not wrong?"
Xiao Peng said, "Of course, that's not a mistake. Today, this number is almost three thousand. And there are still so many ocean-going fishing boats in the European Union and the Stars and Stripes."
Sun Pengcheng's eyes widened: "You are absolutely joking. How can our country be developed with the European Union and the Stars and Stripes?"
Xiao Peng smiled and said: "You don't understand, right? Compared with the ocean-going fishing boats of the European Union and the Stars and Stripes, our Vladimir is a small boat. From a safety point of view, they have stipulated the ocean-going fishing boats. According to specifications, small boats can’t go to the ocean. But what about us Huaxia people? Don’t want money! I read a news some time ago. Several Chinese fishing boats went fishing in Africa. Our country’s warships escorted the Gulf of Aden. Lift the air, but for those fishing boats, I will go. The smallest displacement is less than 100 tons, and the largest displacement is only 300 tons. Such a boat would dare to cross the Indian Ocean from China to Malacca and go to the Red Sea to the Atlantic Ocean. Isn't this Nima desperate? Although there are many ocean-going fishing boats in our country, most of them are such small boats! The ocean-going fishing boats of more than 1,000 tons may add up to less than 100. There are less than 10 of more than 3,000 tons!"
"So few?" Sun Pengcheng suddenly realized after hearing this: "It's like there are more warships in the Northland than in our country, right?"
Xiao Peng smiled and nodded, Sun Pengcheng's metaphor is really correct. Regardless of the small size of the northern country, the number of naval ships is more than that of China-the four-seater speedboat is also a ‘warship’.
Xiao Peng took out a cigar and said, "Sun Pengcheng, you don’t know about fisheries, just take the large yellow croaker you eat in my fishery? Once our country was caught too much and it was difficult to store, our government would call everyone to buy it. 'Patriotic fish' is seven cents a catty, now? The average price of wild large yellow croaker is 2 thousand one catty! Why is this? It is because our country's fishery resources are getting less and less. Back then, our country had'four major fishing grounds', and Now the four major fishing grounds have long existed in name only. Now if you don’t engage in breeding, you can only rely on fishing? It will be good for the first few days of the fishing moratorium, and they will be gone in an instant."
Sun Pengcheng blinked: "Then our country's fishermen are not difficult to mix with?"
Xiao Peng nodded: "You are right, but after all, our country has a long coastline and too many fishermen rely on fishing for food. And not everyone has the ability to engage in marine aquaculture, so what do they do? It also encourages fishery companies to "go global" through fuel subsidies, ship renewal subsidies, and exemption of import taxes and value-added taxes. Therefore, more and more fishermen are taking risks to go further and further."
"This is too dangerous, right?" Sun Pengcheng sighed.
Xiao Peng smiled bitterly: "This is not the most dangerous. The most dangerous is the conflicts and contradictions caused by the expansion of ocean fishing. Do you think, who is willing to go back empty-handed? So it often appears to enter other countries exclusively. Fishing in the economic zone. Look at the news, why Argentina sank the Huaxia fishing boat, Indonesia sank the Huaxia fishing boat, and Xiong Guo sank the Huaxia fishing boat. All the angry youths in our country hate their teeth and want to start the war directly. IUU fishing boats, if someone comes to our country’s exclusive economic zone to fish, let’s not sink them?"
Sun Pengcheng blinked: "Is it worth it for them to take such a big risk?"
Xiao Peng smiled bitterly and said: "Fishing is a hard job in itself. The fishermen work hard for a long time to make more money? Internationally famous fishing grounds such as Newfoundland fishing grounds, Peru fishing grounds, British North Sea fishing grounds, and Japanese Hokkaido fishing grounds are too strict. Therefore, West African fishing grounds have become a paradise for Chinese fishing boats IUU fishing because of the weak navy and fishery law enforcement forces of African countries and poor equipment. There are more than 300 Chinese IUU fishing boats found there every year. What's more, those IUU fishing boats were not found. Anyway, the IUU fishing boats were harmed. The Huaxia fishing boats were almost always checked. Our way is okay. There are not many people who check us. Just get used to it slowly."
