The Mariana Islands are made up of sixteen volcanic islands, and the Maug Islands are the second northernmost islands in the Mariana Island arc.Although the Maug archipelago is called an archipelago, it is technically an island, or more precisely, the crater of a huge volcano.Because this volcano does not seem to have a strong follow-up force, it did not rise above the sea level as a whole, but only a part of the crater was exposed to the water, forming three large and one small four islands, so it is called the Maug Islands.Of course, if this huge volcano can rise completely above sea level, then the island will be a replica of Agrihan.The size of the volcano can be judged by the crater that outcrops from the sea level.The crater alone is two kilometers in diameter and is as large as the crater of the one on Agrihan Island.But if it doesn't rise, it doesn't rise, that's why the Maug Islands are what they are now.The Maug archipelago consists of four islands, one large and one small.The three large islands are Mauge North Island, Mau Gesi Island and Mau Ge Dong Island, which are located near the East Island in the middle of the waterway between the East Island and the North Island, and there is a small island 200 meters long and 120 meters wide.These four islands, one large and one small, form a circular archipelago, and in the middle is a lagoon with a diameter of two kilometers and a depth of more than 200 meters.To the northwest, northeast and due south of the lagoon, there are three waterways connected to the open sea, with the southward channel being one kilometre wide.The plane slowly lowered its altitude and finally landed steadily in the middle of the lagoon through the waterway directly south of the Maug Islands.Surrounded by islands, the lagoon is calm and calm, in stark contrast to the Pacific Ocean outside.What surprised Yang Jing was that there was a luxury yacht more than 100 feet long moored in this lagoon.The occupants of the luxury yacht also seemed to be startled by the seaplane falling from the sky, and when the plane was firmly parked, the yacht accelerated to approach.After getting closer, Yang Jing found that there were two small national flags on the yacht, one was the American flag and the other was the South Korean flag.Obviously, it was a wealthy man from South Korea who rented a luxury yacht belonging to the Americans and came here to have a good time.Sure enough, when Chris and the others unloaded the speedboat from the cargo hold of the seaplane, the yacht came up, and a Korean couple with small eyes, single eyelids, and a slumped nose stood on the foredeck and asked in stiff English, "Hey, are you here to fish too?"
”Because of the sea breeze and the distance, Yang Jing could only vaguely hear their questions, but he didn't answer at the time, but rode on the motorcycle, twisted the throttle and drove to the side of the yacht, and then smiled and said, "We're just here to play."
We heard that the environment here in the Maug Islands is very interesting, so we stopped by to visit. ”While talking, Chris and the others approached on three motorboats, two of them on a motorboat, although they did not speak, but the kind of driving that protected Yang Jing and the bulging weapons on their waists suddenly made the Korean couple a little silent.The Korean couple is obviously also the kind of person who is quite wealthy, otherwise they would not be able to afford to rent such a luxury yacht of more than 100 feet.Although this yacht is not as luxurious as the "Australian Style", it is definitely a high-end luxury yacht, and the charter price of this kind of yacht will not be less than 50,000 US dollars a week.Since it is a wealthy class, it must be able to see Chris's identity.The kind of fierce aura on their bodies, at a glance, you can know that they are extremely professional bodyguards.It's just that the young man in front of him, who is not very old, how can he be equipped with six strong bodyguards at once?
And this young man is obviously a Chinese, could it be the son of a certain high-level in Huaxia?
But no matter what the identity of the young man in front of him was, it was definitely not something that the two of them could afford to provoke, and even the American captain and the two American crew members who came to the deck afterwards didn't dare to speak loudly after seeing Yang Jing and their gang.The atmosphere suddenly became a little awkward with the arrival of Chris, Yang Jing didn't want to make a fuss, although this sudden appearance of the luxury yacht disrupted Yang Jing's plan a little, but Yang Jing really didn't want to think about what to do with others.So he smiled and said, "How's your gain?"
Did you catch any precious fish?
”Yang Jing's attitude was very gentle, which made the Korean couple and the American captain relax a lot, and the American captain also smiled and said: "Hey, man, it's definitely a wonderful thing to come here to fish, we arrived here the day before yesterday, and we caught a lot of fish yesterday, including a precious tuna." ”"Oh?
Tuna?
”Yang Jing was stunned for a moment, and then asked, "Is it tuna?"
”"That's right, man, tuna is the name of myself and Korea, so we call it tuna.The tuna we caught yesterday was a masu tuna, which is second only to bluefin tuna. ”Yang Jing smiled and gave them a thumbs up.No matter what kind of tuna it is, it's hard to catch.Because of the legal protection, tuna in U.S. waters can only be caught by fishing, not with nets.In particular, bluefin tuna, also known as bluefin tuna, has strict catches in the United States and Canada every year, and there are also strict catch restrictions.However, after all, this is the Mariana Islands, far from the mainland of the United States, so the restrictions on private catch of tuna here are not very strict.Tuna swim all their lives, even when they are sleeping, because if they stop, they suffocate to death.That's why tuna is so delicious that it's the best ingredient for sashimi and sashimi.The top of the tuna is the bluefin tuna, although the masu tuna is not as valuable as the bluefin tuna, but it is also the second most valuable tuna of all tuna, and the price is also quite expensive.The Korean couple was lucky to be able to catch a masu tuna.Yang Jing's good attitude also made the Korean couple completely relaxed, and the Korean man also said with a smile on his face: "We not only caught a huge tuna, but also other good catches."
For example, the oysters here are very good, I think they are not worse than the famous Sydney oysters in Australia, and we caught a lot of them yesterday when we dived.Also, we found two coconut crabs on Dongdo Island just now," said the Korean man, who brought out a huge terrifying creature with a length of seventy or eighty centimeters from a net pocket in the bucket next to him.Yang Jing was happy when he saw this, as a senior foodie, of course he understood what the Korean man meant by Sydney rock oysters and coconut crabs.There are hundreds of varieties of oysters that can be eaten in the world, but when it comes to the best oysters, Sydney Rock Oysters are definitely on the list.Among all the oyster varieties in the world, Australian oysters are definitely top-notch, and Sydney rock oysters have always been the top of the Australian oyster varieties and one of the world's top ingredients because of their rich and special metallic taste, coupled with delicious and elastic meat, and a faint fragrance.And the fact that this Korean man actually said that the oysters here are no worse than the Sydney oysters, which is enough to prove that the oysters here are also very good.After all, although oysters do not have strict requirements for the growing environment, it is recognized that the better the water quality of the sea, the best oysters can be produced.There are no human beings living within a radius of 300 kilometers around the Maug Islands, so there is naturally no pollution here, and only this top-quality water quality can raise the best oysters.As for the coconut crab, this kind of crab that has the same appearance as the alien zerg in the American blockbuster "Starship Troopers" is very famous all over the world.The coconut crab is a terrestrial hermit crab that can grow up to one meter in length and is not only the largest terrestrial crab species, but also the largest terrestrial arthropod.These scary-looking creatures have hard shells and two strong and powerful claws, and are expert tree climbers, especially good at climbing straight coconut trees, because they can peel the hard coconut shells with their strong double chela, so they get their name for eating the flesh of the coconut in them.Don't look at this thing as a coconut crab, but it's actually an omnivorous animal, and it eats all kinds of things, and the trash cans are turned over.When the coconut crab was a child, it was a small cute thing with a shell on its back, and like other hermit crabs, it can change the style of painting immediately when it grows up, and the largest can grow to 7-8 kilograms, and the ordinary ones are also 4 kilograms.This thing is slow, and has a stupid and stupid atmosphere, but it is quite neat to go up the tree, and usually can't get it open by eating coconuts, and will climb to the tree, throw the coconut from the tree and break it.However, because it has a particularly sensitive sense of smell and a strong sense of throwing food, it is often not afraid of death to run to humans to grab something to eat, and is also known as "robber crab".Yang Jing once read a netizen's complaint on the Internet: "I'll go to your sister's coconut crab, Lao Tzu is 108,000 miles away from where they live, and I can often find this kind of monster under the bed, it's much more terrifying than the spider god horse, they are from aliens, or they are hell demons, and they have eaten all the creatures there so they touched the earth" Indeed, the appearance of this creature is really terrifying, with a dark carapace, a thick and unshapely big ao, and that long legs, At first glance, it really makes people think that it is a giant black widow spider, which is quite scary.However, despite its terrifying appearance, the flesh of this creature is exceptionally delicious.It is for this reason that coconut crabs, which are widely distributed in tropical waters, are now on the verge of being killed.It's not that you can see wild coconut crabs on remote islands like Maug, and it's not easy to find such terrifying big guys in other places.Coconut crabs are now listed on the Red List of Threatened Species, and no one can kill them privately.But this is the Maug Islands, there are not even a ghost around, and who can manage to get two coconut crabs on the island to try it?
So Yang Jing smiled and asked, "Is there still this thing on the island?"
If there were, I'd like to get a few more, because there are a lot of us. ”The Korean man nodded excitedly ps: bowed and thanked "Ah Dan Youcai" for the 100 reward.
