Chapter 1985 Coast Guard’s Pursuit
"Is this the sunken ship you're talking about?" Li Han shook the photo he had just found out in his hand.
Ma Guangdi's eyes flickered. "Isn't this difficulty considered?"
"This is a fishing boat. It will not sink for more than three years." Edward said.
Ma Guangdi looked at the photos of the sunken ship with a hint of sadness in his eyes. "You are right."
"This ship sank two years, five months and three days ago," Ma Guangdi said.
"Hey, this guy remembers it very clearly." Natalie muttered.
"This ship belongs to you, or someone you know." Li Han looked at Ma Guangdi.
Ma Guangdi nodded and said, "Yes."
It turned out that the Guangdi was a fishing boat purchased by Ma Guangdi's father and uncle. It was just an illegal fishing trip and was sunk by the coast guard. Unfortunately, Ma Guangdi's father was injured and died, and his uncle was left disabled.
"Australia has the heaviest penalties for illegal fishing boats in the entire South Pacific," Edward said. "Illegal fishing for abalone carries a maximum sentence of five years and a fine of nearly 100,000 Australian dollars."
"This guy is quite pitiful." Natalie muttered.
"It's not just that." Ma Guangdi said.
Ma Guangdi said that due to illegal fishing, the fishing boat insurance company did not pay a penny in compensation, and even the benefits of Ma Guangdi's family were cancelled, so that Ma Guangdi had to leave school early.
"Seventeen years old?"
"Are you telling the truth?"
Li Han couldn't believe that Ma Guangdi in front of him was only seventeen years old, and this boy who looked older than him was actually only seventeen years old.
He is not tall, his skin looks like filthy mud, and his finger bones are larger than the average person. This is caused by long-term immersion in sea water.
"I can't believe it." Natalie and Alta looked at Ma Guangdi in disbelief.
Li Han looked at it carefully, and sure enough, although his body was quite strong, he was still somewhat childish. "Since you know the serious consequences of illegal fishing, why?"
"Money." Ma Guangdi said.
"You know, how much does a kilogram of fresh abalone cost? It's one hundred dollars. That's right. A bag of abalone can be sold for two thousand dollars. There's nothing more profitable than that." Ma Guangdi said.
"I need money." Ma Guangdi's uncle's leg is not as simple as leaving a disability. He needs a lot of medication every year. Without welfare, this is even worse for Ma Guangdi's family.
Edward said in a low voice, "The abalone market in Australia is huge, and the revenue from illegal fishing of abalone alone exceeds millions of dollars every year."
No wonder, Li Han had a rough understanding. Most abalone fishing in Australia is from December to March of the next year. Some companies fish, and the fishing period is only 80 days. Fishing requires a license, and the number of abalone caught every day depends on the size of the abalone.
Strictly restricted.
A company obtains a million-dollar license and only has eighty days to catch it. When fresh abalone is harvested, the individual weight must reach one kilogram, and the yield is not high.
Illegal fishing doesn't have these particularities. These companies even pay people to help the coast police catch these illegal fishermen.
Ma Guangdi, this time because of the abalone conservation period, yes, Ma Guangdi caught these abalones. Although they were not small, they were rarely more than one kilogram, and they were small abalones that were three to five years old at most.
Li Han didn't know whether Ma Guangdi's words were true or false. Of course, they might be true or they might be false. "Edward, what do you think?"
"Maybe it's true." Edward said.
"Yeah?"
"If this is a white man saying this, I'm sure it's not true. If it's a Chinese," Edward didn't finish.
"Let's go."
The sunken ship was found, but the value was not much. I gave a few small items to Ma Guangdi. "Thank you, thank you very much."
"These abalones can be considered as a thank you gift."
Li Han said, "Where to go?"
"Can you take me back to Brin Island?" Ma Guangdi said.
Breen Island is not a big island and belongs to Australia. "About fifty nautical miles." Edward said, spreading out the map.
Li Han nodded. Abalone was really not enough for the boat fare. Abalone Island, Harvey and others were sent to the coast guard ship. "A pirate ship kidnapped you. Okay, gentlemen, I will verify this matter."
"Can I borrow your phone?" an assistant whispered.
"certainly."
The identities of Harvey and others were quickly confirmed. "Gentlemen, I'm really sorry."
The anger in Harvey's eyes could burn someone to death. Of course, this was directed at the Pandora. "Brin Island."
"Han, maybe we can go to the Great Barrier Reef next. The underwater scenery there is really nice." Natalie said.
"Great Barrier Reef, okay."
Li Han is very interested in this world-famous scenic spot. The Great Barrier Reef may be the best reference for undersea development of Pandora.
Bulin Island is not that big. The boat docked and Ma Guangdi went to the small island. "Thank you so much."
"Let's go."
"Aren't you going to the island?"
Li Han shook his head. The Black Pearl is too eye-catching. It is not a good thing to dock at the dock.
After setting off towards the Great Barrier Reef, the Black Pearl had been walking for less than an hour. Harvey and others went to the island and happened to meet Ma Guangdi. "Is that that kid?"
"That's right."
"Catch him."
Harvey shouted.
Ma Guangdi, who was about to have something to eat, tried to follow the next boat to catch some abalone. "What are you doing?"
"Yes, it's this kid." Harvey waited for Ma Guangdi to be brought in front of him.
"Tell me, where did that damn pirate ship go?" Harvey asked.
"Pirate ship, Black Pearl?" Ma Guangdi looked at Harvey in surprise.
"Is it you?" Ma Guangdi suddenly remembered.
"It seems like you really know where that ship went?"
"Harvey, I just inquired. The ship has been docked at the dock for ten minutes." The leader of the eight families came over and said that now, they have a common enemy.
"Prepare the boat and take this boy with you," Harvey shouted. "Contact the Coast Guard. I think there must be abalone on that boat, right boy?"
"Ah." Ma Guangdi said.
"There may be no evidence to say they are pirates, but they are illegal fishing boats." Harvey smiled.
"The Great Barrier Reef is really not close." It took almost two and a half hours since the boat left, but it still hadn't reached the Great Barrier Reef.
"The marine environment here is really good." Li Han collected a lot of water samples. "Han, do you plan to raise abalone in Pandora waters?"
"Maybe it's a good idea."
Li Han said with a smile. "However, it will take time to compete with Australia."
"Han, are you really planning to do this?" Natalie muttered.
"hehe."
"Pandora is coming up."
"Dad, Dudu caught a big abalone." The little man held up an abalone the size of a washbasin. It was really big, at least six pounds, almost three kilograms.
“Awesome.”
Li Han said with a smile. "It looks like the harvest is pretty good."
"Yes, Miss Pandora, it's really amazing." Miley said with admiration, diving, it's amazing.
"Take a rest." Li Han touched the villain's head.
"Um."
"Mr. Li." Edward walked over and called softly.
"What's wrong?"
Edward came to Li Han's side and whispered a few words. "Marine Police, I know."
"Pandora abalone put away."
Li Han said, "Stop the ship and get ready. We want to talk to the coast guard."
"Marine police?" Miley's expression changed.
The faces of Mustache and the others changed drastically. The Coast Guard and the pirates were the most feared people. "Don't worry, there is nothing wrong with this ship." Fishbone Wolf said calmly.
"That's right, how could I forget that this ship is not a real pirate ship." Mustache breathed a sigh of relief.
"Ship ahead, listen, please dock immediately and wait for inspection."
"It's really that pirate ship, hahaha." Harvey was very happy. "I want to let those bastards taste the feeling of being fed to sharks, damn little girl."
"Harvey, this is not Coconut Island." The eight middlemen never forgot to remind.
Harvey, this time using the Australian Coast Guard. "I know what I'm doing." 'What a useless old guy.'
"As long as the abalone is found and illegally caught, and these people return to Australia, I have a way to make their lives worse than death." Harvey's eyes flashed fiercely.
The strange appearance of the Black Pearl still attracted the attention of the coast guard. "This does not look like an illegal fishing boat."
"Yeah, pay attention to it later."
The coast guard is not stupid. Although Harvey and the others repeatedly said that there were abalones on this boat, the coast guard still had to be more careful when approaching this huge sailing ship. Maybe it was the rich man's boat.
When I got on the ship, I saw adults and children on the ship. "Hello, I am the first mate of this ship."
"Hello, we received a report that this boat contained illegally caught abalone," the coast guard said.
"Illegal fishing?" Edward's eyelids jumped because he saw several familiar people.
"Han, it's those guys." Natalie stood next to Li Han and whispered.
Li Han frowned, but he didn't expect Ma Guangdi to be there. He saw Ma Guangdi and kept winking. "It's over, it's over." Ma Guangdi shouted in his heart, his bag of abalone was going to kill someone.
"It looks like some of them are recovering well."
Li Han smiled.
Harvey glared at Li Han. "Asshole, wait, I will let you know the price of offending me, Harvey."
"American?" The coast guard paused slightly after looking at the ID.
Americans look down on Australians, just like the British. They always think that Americans are rich people. Many Americans have the impression of Australians, God, they are prostitutes and prisoners.
At this time, the coast guard's frown deepened. Americans are really difficult to deal with.
Harvey and the others looked at Li Han and the others with amusement on their faces. "Giant bears and pythons are not obedient in front of the coast guard."
"Han, this guy is getting more and more annoying the more I look at him."
"That's right, it seems like we should treat him well." Li Han smiled and nodded.
"This damn guy is actually laughing." Harvey seemed to be blinded by hatred.
Coast Guard, back on the deck, Li Han looked on calmly. "My lawyer will come over tomorrow. I think this matter needs a reasonable explanation."
"Sir, this is your freedom, how about it?"
The coast guard leader asked in a low voice.
I saw only a few coast guard, shaking their heads slightly. "Only a few sea fish."
