Chapter 228 - 152: The Big Fish Surfaces_3
Only as he drew closer did Lin Yang see the massive Zong Fish they had dragged back last night, the initial processing already completed, with staff wrapping it in thermal insulation material for packaging.
At this moment, the fish’s body was no longer visible as the staff were securing the thermal cotton, looking to wrap it up and load it onto a truck for transport.
"Cousin, you’re awake? Are you hungry? I had the kitchen save some food for you," Li Xiaopeng, who enjoyed the bustling scene, said to him as he approached.
"Not really hungry. Are they planning to transport the fish away?"
"Yes, the refrigerated truck arrived at dawn. Professor Chen and his team were up very early today too, removing all the perishable internal organs first thing in the morning, and now that it’s all packed, it can be directly hauled away," Li Xiaopeng, who had risen early, was well-informed about the research team’s activities.
"Oh, that’s good," Lin Yang nodded.
"Brother Yang, look what this is? Professor Chen gave it to me," Yue’er approached Lin Yang and, like a magician, pulled out an object wrapped in tissue paper from her pocket, revealing several fish scales the size of pigeon eggs when unwrapped.
"Such large scales? This is really something valuable, make sure to keep it well preserved when you take it back—it has great commemorative significance!" Lin Yang examined it briefly. The scales of a Zong Fish were a completely different concept compared to those of freshwater bream and grass carp.
Large Crucian Carp, with scales the size of an egg, probably meant the fish was about a hundred pounds in weight.
