Chapter 166 Sumeiyu

After a simple lunch, Ye Yaodong took the newly made ground cage and headed to the dock with a few loaded barrels.

There has been no internet for two days, and the situation has been calm recently. No one dares to steal the internet. This time there is probably a lot of goods.

When he arrived at the dock, Xiaoxiao and Azheng were already on the boat, and he immediately saw the two bamboo baskets on their boat.

There are countless circles of fishing line coiled in the bamboo basket, and nearly a hundred fishhooks are hooked on the edge of the grass basket. They are so densely packed that I don’t know how much effort it will take.

"How many hours will it take to fix these hooks and lines?" Ye Yaodong was a little moved when he saw how complicated it was, so he gave up the idea and decided to use a ground net to save trouble.

"Two hours, that's fine."

Is it okay if I still scream for two hours? never mind.

"It's so strenuous."

Xiaoxiao also thinks so, "Indeed, next time you can ask a nearby woman or old man to do it before going to sea, it will save trouble."

"Let's go, let's go. I have to collect the ground cage first. You guys will wait for me when I release the hook!"

"Okay, we are also going to collect the ground cages, and put down a few ground cages on the ship. After you are ready, we will lower the row of hooks."

The two boats drove out of the shore one after another, and each rowed to their own cage location first.

Ye Yaodong put away all the rows of floor cage nets one after another. At first, he was still full, but now he does the same thing every two days. He no longer has the feeling of opening a blind box when loading goods, unless it suddenly appears. Rare goods, but rare goods don’t come around every day.

The same is true today.

But the harvest is not bad, there are a lot of fish, shrimps and crabs, the most common ones are water grain fish and swimming crabs. The most valuable ones are blue crabs, and the crabs are plump in autumn.

He put all the goods into two large buckets without sorting them. After placing all the ground cages again, he rowed towards the sea area where Xiaoxiao and Azheng put the ground cages.

They had collected the goods long ago and cast a few more nets, but the harvest was not much.

As soon as he got closer, he heard them talking about how hard it was to throw the net by hand, and that if long-line fishing was easy to use, they would all use long-line fishing in the future.

"Hey, isn't the harvest good?"

Azheng curled his lips, "There are only two or three rows of cage nets in total. What good can they do? The hand-thrown net only cast a few nets. It's just so-so. We'll just wait for you to come over and we'll cast the net."

"Then let's take off the trousers. Do you need any help?"

I saw that in the original bamboo basket, the hooks were already filled with small shrimps as bait, as if they were just waiting for the fish to fall, and they didn't need his help.

"No, we'll use the small shrimps we just got from the net as bait. They've already been hung up. Just two of us, one will launch the fish and the other will launch the boat."

After Ah Zheng finished speaking, he signaled Xiaoxiao to drive the boat forward for a while. Then, while driving, he dropped the head anchor into the water. At the same time, he threw out the buoy, connected the main line, and then removed the fishing hook from the edge of the basket and put the fishing tackle in sequence. in water.

After lowering the trunk line of the first basket, connect the tail end of the trunk line of the basket with the head end of the trunk line of the second basket, the buoy rope and the rock sinking rope and put them into the water, then drop the trunk line of the second basket, and finally throw out the tail anchor and buoy.

Because we were just testing the waters today, we only had two baskets of dry lines, about 200 hooks.

After Ah Zheng had lowered all the hooks, Ye Yaodong asked, "That's it? And then you just wait to pull it up?"

….

"No way, my father-in-law said that we still need to drag the fishing line to make the bait swim and lure the big fish in the sea to eat the bait."

"You don't have to keep swinging, right? Doesn't the water move when it flows?"

"Who knows, maybe the swimming range is not big enough, let's try it first."

Seeing this, Ye Yaodong didn't pull it up so quickly, so he simply took out the fishing rod on his boat, took out a random fish, cut off some meat and used it as bait, and swung the hook.

Anyway, idle time is idle, and it’s not bad to catch a few fishing rods to enjoy yourself.

I just don't know if it's because there are so many rows of hooks nearby. The fish are attracted by the bait there. He threw the hook into the sea for a long time, but there was no movement at all.

He simply lifted the hook and thought about swinging it in another direction, but found that the bait was gone.

Mud, no wonder there has been no movement for a long time!

Let's use shrimps. He took out a small shrimp and continued to bait.

This time the bait was hooked quickly. In less than two minutes, a 6-pound eel bit the hook.

"Damn it, Dongzi, did you catch a fish? Or a moray eel."

"Isn't it just idleness? Your hook hasn't been pulled up yet." Ye Yaodong happily untied the big eel from the hook.

The two of them were itching to watch, and Azheng stopped shaking the fishing line. They took out the hooks and prepared to try fishing for a while.

"You don't want the fish to swim by shaking it?"

"As the sea water moves, the bait will still move. Leave it alone. Just catch the fish for a while and wait two hours before reeling in the line."

"Hey~ Here we go again." As he spoke, Ye Yaodong lifted the fishing rod again, and it was a 2-pound bass.

"It's pretty fast to catch fish, isn't it?"

"It's not bad, it means there are quite a lot of fish in our waters."

“Is it possible that there are fewer people fishing now?”

They were chatting casually, but Xiao Xiao suddenly said, "I recently heard that many fishermen in the south are involved in smuggling and stop fishing."

Ah Zheng asked in surprise: "Huh? Who did you listen to?"

"Didn't my third brother go out with a big ship some time ago? When passing through the port town of Shishi, he saw a large number of smuggling ships and various goods. I heard that the whole town was involved."

Ye Yaodong was not surprised when he heard this. After the reform, people were full of expectations and expectations for the future. Therefore, in terms of living expenses, people no longer only considered food and clothing as before, but also began to pursue tricks and trends.

However, the embarrassing thing is that there was a special shortage of various daily necessities at that time, such as black and white TV sets, video recorders, watches, motorcycles, etc. Many of them could not be bought even if they had money, which allowed many criminals to see "business opportunities."

As the vanguard of reform and opening up, coastal areas have become increasingly busy with various economic and trade routes. Many people have long seen the huge profits from smuggling.

Smuggling is so normal. Lin Jishang in their village is involved in the smuggling line, but they don't know what they are smuggling.

Some time ago, he saw them sneaking to the dock at night. They must be carrying smuggled goods at night.

In the past two years, the crackdown on smuggling has been stepped up. However, driven by interests, the masses cannot stop so easily.

….

In his previous life, he had heard that in the past few years, farmers had abandoned farming, workers had abandoned work, fishermen had abandoned fishing, and teachers had abandoned teaching to participate in smuggling.

After all, how can dead wages be worth the huge profits from smuggling?

"Tsk, tsk, tsk~ These people want to make a lot of money, so we have no way out. The villagers in the village are all honest, and the fishing boats are all fishing peacefully. Otherwise, we would have to join in and make a lot of money. "

Azheng was extremely envious. He also knew that smuggling was rampant after the reform. Cars often came to their village selling tapes, nylon folding umbrellas, nylon mosquito nets, polyester knitted fabrics and other common daily necessities, all of which were cheaper than those sold by the supply and marketing cooperative.

Ye Yaodong shook his head and said: "Don't think about it, we are being severely beaten right now. If you catch me, you might even be able to sit through the bottom of the cell."

"I heard from my third brother that the whole county over there is involved in smuggling, and there are so many people..."

"Don't take chances."

He just wants his wife and children to be on the hot bed, to be a responsible person, to earn some decent money, and although he is a little less promising, he does not have to take risks.

He remembered that at the beginning of next year, the "first case of corruption in reform and opening up" was held in a public trial and the officials involved were directly sentenced to death.

Ah Zheng said without giving up: "Don't we Chinese people have a saying that the law should not punish the public?"

"So you're going to Shishi?"

"Ah this..."

He doesn't have this courage alone. To be honest, he is just an ordinary fisherman. Nothing happened around him.

, asking him to take the initiative to go to a strange place and get involved in unknown events is still a bit timid.

"The coast is now being tightened. You have no connections, no money, and no courage. You should just stick to the sea. Your hook can be pulled."

"All right."

One sentence made him suppress all his thoughts.

His little whims were also struck down by him.

After chatting for a while, Ye Yaodong only caught 6 fish intermittently. In fact, his mind was also affected.

Keeping in mind the social imagination of this era, he thought that smuggling was something that would be irrelevant to him. Unexpectedly, his friends around him were also interested in it for some reason.

It’s difficult to handle. Anyway, everyone has their own ambitions, whether they like to hear it or not.

Seeing that Ah Zheng was starting to reel in the fishing line, Ye Yaodong also put away the fishing rod and stopped fishing. It was getting late at night, and by the time he finished reeling in the longline, it was time for them to go home for dinner.

"Hey~ Not bad, the first one is a white fish, weighing 2 pounds."

He casually untied the fish and threw it into the bucket, then continued pulling.

"what fish is this?"

As A Zheng spoke, he reached out to grab it, but was stopped by Ye Yaodong sternly, "Wait a minute and don't touch it!"

"Ah?" Ah Zheng was startled and almost loosened the thread, "What are you doing?"

"This is a sand-haired fish. On the list of poisonous fish, one stingray, two tigers, and three sand-haired fishes are ranked third. Its dorsal fin and pectoral fin are both neurotoxic. I accidentally got stung. , the pain is as painful as a nail being driven into your hand. It will hurt all day and all night, and it will also cause throbbing, cramping, and numbness. Don’t reach out and touch it directly.”

"Ah? That's it, grass. I can catch all this. Forget it, let you go."

He held the scissors and wanted to cut the fishing line and release it, but he heard Ye Yaodong say again: "You don't have to release it, just cut off its fins. The meat of this fish is tender and sweet, with less thorns and more flesh. It's also It can cool down and relieve heat, nourish and strengthen the body.”

"Forget it, you said its fins are poisonous, so I won't take the risk."

He just checked and cut the line, but he didn't expect that the third fish that came up was still the same fish, the fourth one was the same, and the fifth one was also the same.

"Have you stung a dog by riding a horse? Have you poked a hole in a mouse's nest? Five of them in a row?"

"It's 4!" Ye Yaodong corrected.

The little crow mouth said: "Maybe the next one will be the same?"

"Don't, right? He already scolded me and he still hopes that the next one will be? In fact, this fish has its fins cut off, it's quite delicious."

"No, you're so ugly."

Azheng continued to pull, but to his surprise, it came up empty. The bait was eaten, and he felt depressed again. Unexpectedly, the next one actually hooked a squid.

"Holy shit, shit, it's a squid!"

"Su Mei?"

"Su Mei?!"

All three of them opened their eyes in surprise!
