Chapter 126 The Fisheries Bureau Is Here?

Lin Xiangrong was silent the whole time, carrying an empty bucket, and another with only a few kilograms of river shrimp and some fish. He felt very unhappy. Originally, he was afraid that the Chinese sturgeon would die and wanted to take it back to raise it as soon as possible. Now it only has a few kilograms of river shrimp and some fish. Fish, are you planning to go back now?

Although this was their initial purpose, if they hadn't caught it before, there wouldn't be a gap in their hearts. Dozens of dollars were wasted, and they only bought a few goods online and then went back. What's the point?

He kicked and followed behind, kicking the stones under his feet. He only heard the sound of winter, and the stones fell into the river, but suddenly there were countless crackling splashes on the water, and everyone was surprised. Looking over, Ye Yaodong took the opportunity to shine the flashlight over.

Countless big fish jumped out of the water and jumped there. He raised his eyebrows in surprise and said to his surprised brother-in-law: "Have you caught enough fish? Do you want to catch more?"

He was quite indifferent to these freshwater fish. The people at the beach only liked to eat sea fish. After releasing the Chinese sturgeon, he was a little less interested than at first. Unexpectedly, Lin Xianghui took the flashlight in his hand and carefully looked at it. He stepped forward and took a photo.

"It's a military fish!"

Lin Xiangrong also stepped forward in surprise, "So many military fish? I thought they were grass carp just now!"

"In the past few years, everyone had nothing to eat. The river fish were overfished, so we didn't see them very much for a few years. I didn't expect that there are so many of them again now."

Ye Yaodong was a little confused listening to their discussion. What kind of army fish?

"Isn't this grass carp?"

Lin Xianghui said with a smile: "You are from the seaside, so you don't know. This is a military fish, not a grass carp. It just looks like a grass carp. It looks ordinary, but its scales are very large, several times the size of a grass carp, and its price is also the same." It’s several times the size of grass carp, and the fish meat is very tender and smooth, with no earthy smell at all.”

He took a closer look and saw that the scales were indeed quite large, but without comparing them, he didn't feel how big they were.

"And its scales are edible. We never scratch off the scales when eating this kind of fish." Lin Xiangrong added in a good mood.

Ye Yaodong raised his eyebrows, "Can the scales be eaten?"

Forgive him for being such an ignorant seaside person!

"Yes, if you are burned or scalded, you can just crush the scales and apply them on the wound. There seem to be a lot of these military fish. My second brother and I will go fishing. You can help us use the flashlight on the shore." Lin Xianghui said as he took off his clothes. clothing.

"I'll go down, you guys have a rest..."

"No, I'll give you a cold. My dad will beat us to death. We can just go down."

The brothers jumped into the water one after another, causing a large splash of water. Originally, the river had become calm, but now the army fish started jumping again.

Ye Yaodong had no choice but to use a flashlight on the shore and help carry the bucket to receive the goods. He saw that his brother-in-law casually caught three military fish in the net. Each one seemed to weigh eight or nine kilograms, which was really not small.

Lin Xiangrong was more ruthless, so he caught four fish in one net and put them heavily into the bucket.

Each of these military fish is about the same size, and there are only a few of them. The bucket is almost full, but there are still many on the river, and there are no containers to put them in. These fish will die as soon as they land a few times, so how can they be sold tomorrow morning?

….

Ye Yaodong thought for a while and saw a lot of straw on the roadside. He simply tied up the fish with the fish bow technique to free up the bucket to receive the goods.

This is a technology that helps fish breathe oxygen on land! It is a method of preserving fresh fish in Jian'ou area of ​​Fujian Province, which has been passed down to this day.

Thread a rope through the nose of the fish and tie it with a knot. The whole body of the fish is bent to the right to form an arch. At the other end, tie the rope to the tail near the vagina. After tying, tie the rope tightly.

This will reduce the fish’s struggle and won’t consume a lot of their energy.

It can also keep the air flowing in, because fish cannot open their gills on land. The always open gills can ensure that the fish can breathe freely and survive longer, thus keeping it fresh.

It is best to tie the fish and put it into the water or fish pond, and then the fish will spit out the mud. By tying it in this way, the fish can survive longer out of the water, at least for a day or two.

If you don't put it in the water and spit out the sludge, the survival time will be reduced, but it will still be fine until tomorrow morning. How long it can survive next depends on its life.

He was very skilled at his job, but no matter how fast he tied it, he couldn't keep up with their fishing speed. He could only let them squeeze in at first. Fortunately, the bucket was big and high enough.

He tied one and threw it aside. He didn't have to carry anything to pack it. He could just pick it up in his hand and carry it back later.

But there seemed to be quite a lot of these military fish. The two brothers-in-law were still fishing there desperately, and they didn’t know if they would be able to get them later.

He couldn't help but ask: "How much does a pound of this fish cost? You caught so much? Is it easy to sell?"

"This fish is expensive. Now it costs 2 cents per pound, while grass carp only costs 5 cents per pound. Catch more, it's rare to see it."

"Damn it, this water fish also costs 2 cents?"

No wonder, this one costs 1 to 2 yuan. If you get 100 of them, you can sell them for one or two hundred, right? You would be a fool not to do so.

"Yes, some fresh water fish are not cheaper than fish in the sea. We haven't seen this fish in a few years. We thought it was because there were too many factories in the past two years and the water quality was not good enough. Now it seems like we have The water quality at the edge is not bad.”

"Hurry up and catch them, many of them have swam away."

They didn't care to talk at this time. The more money they could get, the more money they would make.

Ye Yaodong just sat on the bank and was busy tying them up. They didn't give up until they swam up and down the river and saw no military fish.

They looked at the tied fish all over the ground and were very satisfied. They had finally compensated for the loss of the Chinese sturgeon.

"How many are there?"

Ye Yaodong said without stopping: "See for yourselves, there are dozens of them all over the ground, right?"

The two couldn't wait to count.

He shook the bucket again, and the army fish jumped there twice, "I guess there are ten of them in the bucket!"

At this time, Ye Yaodong suddenly thought, is there someone specializing in the purchase of Danshuiyu Countryside?

How long will it take to sell by myself?

It’s not that he looks down on the purchasing power of country people, it’s that people nowadays are generally reluctant to eat and drink, and it’s not easy to make some money. There are so many, and one item is not cheap at all. Families with two working people may be more willing to spend money.

The two brothers didn't expect this, and they were counting excitedly. They had never caught so many military fish at one time. In the past, they could only catch a few fish when they came here to fish.

….

Ye Yaodong couldn't bear to attack them, "There are so many, can you find a fishmonger to collect them?"

The two of them frowned for a moment and couldn't count anymore. It seemed that it was difficult to sell alone, but the fishmonger...

I don't know them either. They are just ordinary farmers. In the past, they just caught a few and took them to the market and sold them in the middle of the morning.

Now that there were so many fish, they also felt it was difficult. At that time, they only cared about the joy of catching fish.

"We don't know anyone," Lin Xianghui said after a moment of hesitation, "There is a vegetable market in the village, and there is a farmer's market in the town. Let's go to several markets tomorrow and see how much we can sell."

They didn't expect to be able to catch so much at once. They just started catching fish, so they didn't think too much. These fish may not survive until tomorrow at most, but they may not survive the day after tomorrow. It would be a pity if they didn't sell them.

Lin Xiangrong's originally cheerful face suddenly drooped again.

Ye Yaodong comforted him: "Take it to a restaurant in town tomorrow and ask. Restaurants and restaurants consume a lot of money. If you sell it cheaper, you should be able to sell a lot."

"Yes, you can take it to the hotel and ask."

The two of them suddenly looked better.

"Put on your clothes first, let's go back first, and sell as much as we can sell tomorrow."

There were so many fish that it was hard to carry them in one hand, and there were other shrimp pots and hand nets to grab, so they simply put all the fish into the fish collection bags of the shrimp pots.

The two brothers carried a net of fish. They were in a good mood at night and were no longer in the mood to joke. They were all worried about how they would sell these fish tomorrow.

Ye Yaodong was also thinking about it, but other than selling it to a restaurant, he had no other good ideas. He could only wait and see tomorrow.

Lin Xianghui pondered the whole way while walking, and waited until he was almost home before saying, "A Dong will get up early tomorrow and help us sell in the countryside. Ah Rong and I will push the cart to the town tomorrow. He will sell at the entrance of the farmer's market. I will go Let’s check out the restaurants in town, and when the money is sold, we’ll share it together.”

"It's okay to help you sell it in the countryside. As for the money, forget it. I didn't contribute much in the first place. You all caught it from the river. I just tied the fish on the bank."

They have already suffered a loss by releasing the Chinese sturgeon, so let’s forget about the money.

Lin Xiangrong said calmly: "Let's wait until it's sold. I don't know how much it can be sold yet. It's a bit early to say how much it will cost now."

"Yes, let's go back first. It's a bit late now. We have to get up early tomorrow."

Ye Yaodong knew that his second brother-in-law was a little unhappy, but there was nothing he could do about it. The Chinese sturgeon would be banned from fishing next year. They were probably very sensitive now, so it was better not to go against the trend. They were just ordinary people.

After returning to the village, the surroundings were pitch dark, with no lights on. In order to save some electricity, people in rural areas had nothing to do at night and went to bed early. The Lin family was also quiet.

Ye Yaodong entered the house in the dark under the moonlight, but when he lay down, he woke up Lin Xiuqing, who was sleeping.

She said in a confused voice, "You are back," and then fell asleep again.

Maybe he was tired from carrying the child all the way today. Ye Yaodong originally wanted to talk to her, so he had no choice but to give up and close his eyes to sleep.

….

But it was not easy to fall asleep deeply when he had something on his mind. It was still very dark, so he heard faint voices outside the house and woke up immediately.

After careful identification, it seemed to be the voice of my brother-in-law. Is it time to go to the farmer's market?

He quickly put on his clothes and pants and went out, only to see him talking to Father Lin.

A little confused, he thought it was two brothers-in-law talking there.

"A Dong got up so early?"

"I got up when I heard the noise. Why did dad get up so early?"

Father Lin frowned and said, "Ah Rong is gone. I just asked his wife, and he said he would have gone out half an hour earlier."

"Ah? Where has he gone? Didn't we agree that he and his eldest brother would go to the town to sell fish, and I would go to the vegetable market in our village to sell fish. I thought it was the eldest brother and the second brother who were talking, and thought they were leaving to catch the morning market. "

Lin Xianghui was also very confused, "I don't know either. I didn't say anything about the sudden change of heart. I don't know where he went before it was dawn."

"Are you unwilling to give in and go net that Chinese sturgeon?"

"Huh? You can't, right?"

Father Lin quickly asked: "What Chinese sturgeon? What happened when you went out last night?"

Lin Xianghui told Lin's father what happened last night, while Ye Yaodong went to their small woodshed to look for fishing gear and found that everything was there and nothing was missing.

"It's time to release the animals. Don't be afraid of ten thousand, just be afraid of the unexpected. Don't let yourself get caught because of a fish." The old people are very afraid of things.

Ye Yaodong heard this as soon as he came out of the woodshed. In fact, if the fishing ban policy was promulgated late, then he would be caught. If he didn't catch it, there would naturally be a large number of people fishing. The key is to ban fishing next year, which means that The number of fish is really small now.

"Are all the fishing gear here?"

"Yes, he probably didn't catch that Chinese sturgeon."

"Then he ran out before dawn. Where did he go?" Lin Xianghui frowned so hard that it would kill a fly. He actually dropped the chain at the critical moment. He was really angry.

"Ignore him for now. I will go to town with you to sell fish. If you don't leave, it will be too late. It will take half an hour to walk to town. When it gets dark, the morning market will open at four o'clock."

Father Lin was very anxious. He didn't know how many fish he could sell with so many fish.

"Okay, let's go first."

Lin Xianghui gave 10 pieces to Ye Yaodong. According to the purchasing power of the villagers in their village, it would be very good if he could sell half of them. He would put the rest on the truck and sell as many as he could. There was nothing he could do if he couldn't sell them. . He also put a bucket of live fish on the cart.

Ye Yaodong followed the cart. When they went to town, they would pass by the vegetable market in the countryside. If they went together, he wouldn't have to carry it.

It was only around four o'clock, and it was still dark outside and I needed a flashlight, but the vegetable market in the countryside was bustling with people, and the noise could be heard from a long distance away.

Each stall in the vegetable market was lit with dimly lit orange light bulbs. Ye Yaodong carried two buckets of fish, put a broken straw mat under his arm, and casually found a corner to squat down.

After spreading the straw mat on the ground, he arranged the fish one by one on the straw mat while looking around and hawking as the locals do in a cheeky manner.

I have never been to the market to sell fish in my entire life, so it feels quite novel.

The morning market is quite lively. There are quite a few people coming to buy and sell things early in the morning. It's not yet bright yet, but there is already a faint light on the horizon.

At this moment, he was still selling and looking around enthusiastically. When the sun rose high, he couldn't laugh anymore.

Several hours have passed, but only 3 items have been sold, and they can no longer be sold?

What a mess.

He threw all the fish back into the bucket, planned to roll up the mat and go back directly.

They were not sold during the busiest time of the morning market, so how could they expect to sell them when the stall is about to close? There are not many people left.

Just as he was rolling up the mat, he heard a commotion not far away and felt that there were many people talking. With curiosity, he quickly rolled up the mat under his arm and followed directly with the bucket. Ask others: "What's going on? What happened in the village?"

"I don't know! I haven't heard of it, and it hasn't been played on the radio."

"Just go and take a look and you'll find out."

As soon as Ye Yaodong got close to the crowd, he heard the villagers discussing about the Ocean Bureau and what kind of fish they came to catch?

He was surprised. Could he be here to catch Chinese sturgeon?

Return to the small fishing village of 1982.
