In the early morning of early July, the temperature in the waters of Newfoundland is still relatively low, but the weather is very good today, so Yang Jing and Gege get up early in the morning to enjoy the sunrise over the sea.
The cabin where the two of them lived was the best on the whole ship, and when you open the door, there is a large viewing platform, located on the fourth floor of the deck cabin, which is the second most visible position on the whole ship after the top cockpit.
When the two of them came out, Chris and the four of them had quietly stood up.
Even on the ship, the four of them still did their duty.
The two of them stood on this platform, looking out into the distance, looking at the sea in the east.
In fact, strictly speaking, the time for two people to get up is not in the early morning, but in the middle of the night.
Because it's only half past three when they get up.
If this were at the lower latitudes of the Northern Hemisphere, it would still be pitch black.
It's just that the sea area where they are now is close to 50 degrees north latitude, and the sunrise time is 3:58 in the morning.
And by the time they got up, it was already getting dark.
No way, summer in the Northern Hemisphere is like this, the higher the latitude, the earlier the day will be brighter.
If the Blue Whale had crossed the Arctic Circle and entered the Arctic Circle, the night would have been only a few hours a day.
After waiting for a while, the sky and sea in the east were painted orange-red.
As time passed, the color became more and more intense, and it seemed that in an instant, the red sun "jumped" out from below the sea level, and the dense water vapor rising from the sea surface made the sun not look so round, and the scenery was extremely spectacular.
"Actually, the sun we see now is not the real sun, you know?"
Gege tilted her head and asked Yang Jing, but without waiting for Yang Jing to answer, she continued, "Actually, when we look at the sun at sunrise, it is just a virtual view of the sun formed by refraction and diffuse reflection of the atmosphere, so it looks like the sun is very empty and irregular. ” Yang Jing hugged Gege's waist and said with a smile: "You girl knows a lot." ” "Hehe, if you've seen the sunrise over the sea many times, you know this."
Gege playfully replied.
When she said this, Yang Jing remembered that this girl was born with a golden key, the sunrise on the sea or something, she didn't know how many times she had watched it.
"But I still like to watch the sunrise on the sea, only by watching the sunrise on the sea can I appreciate the vastness of heaven and earth, and the greatness of Mother Nature."
Gege took a sip on Yang Jing's face, "Husband, thank you for accompanying me to watch the sunrise." ” Yang Jing's arms couldn't help but tighten, and the two of them just snuggled up and leaned against the fence of the viewing platform, watching the fish leap in the distance and the seagulls soaring in the sky.
"Daughter-in-law, do you know that this sea area was once the largest fishing ground in the world?"
Yang Jing stretched out his hand and pointed to the vast sea area in front of him and asked.
"The Newfoundland Fishery, I know, is just because of centuries of fishing, especially in the fifties and sixties, which led to the destruction of the fishery.
Now, only three of the world's four largest fishing grounds remain, and Newfoundland's fishing grounds have been completely destroyed. ” "Yo, you know that clearly, huh?"
Yang Jing said with a smile.
"What's this?
I've been here on vacation before," Gege's answer couldn't help but make Yang Jing choke, and Gege immediately laughed.
"It was during the summer vacation of my freshman year, and I came to Canada for a vacation, and then I came here by boat.
I've heard a lot of stories about the fishing grounds of Newfoundland. ” Yang Jing said with a smile: "I haven't been here before, but I also know a lot about Newfoundland, a few years ago there was a very popular online novel on the Internet, the name seems to be called "Golden Fishery", which is about a story about a young Chinese man with marine abilities in Newfoundland, which is very well written, and the author and I are fellow countrymen." ” "Huh?
And this kind of book?
Is it good-looking?
” "Well, I suggest you take a look, it's pretty good, anyway, I was chasing that book for a long time."
"Okay, I'll read that book when I have time."
Gege looked happy.
But she turned her head and sighed.
"What's wrong?
It was okay just now, why did you sigh like this?
What upsets you?
Yang Jing asked curiously.
Gege scratched his head and said with some embarrassment: "Actually, it's nothing, I just think back to the seafood dinner I had in St.
John's when I came to Newfoundland on vacation that year."
Although Newfoundland's fishing grounds have been closed for more than 30 years, St.
John's is the capital of Newfoundland and a seaside city, and there are still many excellent seafood in St.
John's every day.
It's a pity that we're just passing through there this time, and it would be nice to be able to go ashore for a seafood dinner. ” Yang Jing poked Gege's face dotingly, and said with a smile: "It turns out that the little gluttonous cat is hungry for seafood?"

That's easy to say.
When we pass by St.
John's, I'll tell André that we can stop the boat and drop anchor, and then take the assault boat to St.
John's to eat seafood. ” Although Yang Jing and the others are now on the sea, this Blue Whale is too big, and there is no way to fish in the sea.
Although there are frozen seafood ingredients in the cabin, where can this frozen seafood be delicious?
Therefore, Yang Jing: Their current situation is to guard the sea, but there is no seafood to eat.
"Really?"
Gege got excited.
"What's really fake about this?
Let's come out this time, the treasure hunt is just to piggyback, and the real purpose is to come out for a vacation.
So, whatever you want to eat, what you want to play, just do it.
We have paid the rent for renting this ship, and as long as it does not violate the rules of sailing, we can mention the other conditions. ” "Great, I'm going to St.
John's for seafood when we pass by St.
John's."
Don't look at Halifax and St.
John's both belong to Canada, and they are both cities on the east coast of Canada, but in fact, the distance between the two is more than 500 nautical miles, and with the cruising speed of the Blue Whale, it will take at least 36 hours to complete this distance.
However, since it has been decided to stay in St.
John's for a seafood dinner, this matter must be communicated to Captain Andre in advance.
Although Yang Jing is an employer, he is not arrogant enough not to listen to the captain at sea.
Communication went well.
After Yang Jing and Gege returned from the viewing platform, they slept again, and after breakfast, they entered the cockpit to communicate with Captain Andre.
"You're going to stop your ship off the coast of St.
John's and go to that city for a seafood feast?"
Hearing Yang Jing's request, Captain Andrei Milakinov looked at Yang Jing with a strange face and asked.
Andre's face made Yang Jing "chuckle" in his heart, but at this time, he could only nod and say: "That's right, my fiancée has been to that city before, so she happened to pass by that city this time, and she wanted to go to that city again, of course, it is also a very good thing to have a seafood meal by the way."
After all, St.
John's was the heart of the entire Newfoundland fishing grounds. ” Gege smiled and nodded.
Yang Jing said: "I mean, if our ship can stop for a while, I want to invite the crew on the ship to go to that city for a while."
Captain Andrey, we would be happier if you could go. ” Captain Andre suddenly burst out laughing and gave Yang Jing a bear-like hug of a fighting nation, "Haha, my dear Albert, I've been waiting for this invitation from you for a long time.
Damn, we don't get to eat fresh seafood, even though we spend all year round on the sea.
Albert, if you could invite us over for a seafood dinner, I think the crew would love you. ” The crew in the cockpit laughed.
Andrei is not exaggerating when he said this, they are an ocean-going polar research ship, close to 20,000 tons of full load displacement, the ship's side is very high, and once the ship runs at a normal cruising speed, it is also close to 30 kilometers per hour.
The most important thing is that the crew on this kind of scientific research ship is a radish and a pit, even if it is on duty, the rest crew will not spend rest time to go fishing.
After all, the Blue Whale is not an ocean-going fishing vessel, but a ship similar to an ocean-going freighter, so it is really difficult to eat fresh seafood on this ship.
The crew on the ship usually eats the ingredients stored in the cold storage, which is similar to what they eat on land, and there is very little fresh seafood or anything.
"Well, when we get to St.
John's, I'll invite everyone to St.
John's for a seafood feast."
Yang Jing made a promise.
In the swaying, a day and a half passed quickly.
On the afternoon of the third day after sailing, the Blue Whale finally reached the sea off the coast of St.
John's, the largest city on the island of Newfoundland.
However, Captain Andre did not let the Blue Whale sail into the pier of St.
John's Bay, which itself is not large, and the distance from west to east is only more than two kilometers.
If a ship as big as the Blue Whale enters the port, don't do anything tonight, just enter the port and play.

It is very troublesome for such a 10,000-ton ship to enter and dock, especially in a port with a relatively narrow waterway like the Port of St.
John's, where 10,000-ton ships rarely enter the port.
Not to mention that there are only two 10,000-ton wharves in St.
John's Port, and now all ships are docked, so even if the Blue Whale wants to sail into St.
John's Port, there is nowhere to dock.
So Captain Andre simply parked the Blue Whale in the sea about three kilometers away from the outlet of the Bay of St.
John's.
After anchoring, all but the necessary remaining crew members rushed to St.
John's in the ship's assault boat.
