My village can't be like this

Chapter 368 Golden Armor
After being reminded by Wang Hua, everyone suppressed their excitement.

"Quick, quick, if you still have some energy, get it into a bucket quickly. Don't kill me."

But now that the big golden carp has been entangled by several people for so long, it already looks like it is wilted and dead.

The dead fish behavior that adults often scolded people on weekdays was now clearly reflected in it.

Except for a pair of fish eyes that still move from time to time, the rest of the fish has already laid flat, and even its tail has given up struggling.

But we can't blame this big golden carp, even though when it was in the water, it was as fierce as a god of war.

But it fought two men fiercely in the water, and for a short time, it had already lost all its strength.

In addition, now that he was out of the water, he was still being asked about, so he was already lucky if he didn't die.

If it were a small fish, he would have gone to see the Dragon King long ago.

Finally, in order to keep the fish alive, he put it into Zhang An's big bucket.

Because the fish guard they brought was just a woven bag containing rice.

Don’t look down on this kind of woven bag. It is much better than the fish protection currently on the market. Most people who are not experienced fishermen don’t know about it.

After all, the fish guards made of nylon threads on the market are not very strong, and fish often run away, which is completely incomparable with the fish guards of later generations.

And this thing is not cheap. A few years ago, when Zhang An was still in school, they were already selling for 20 yuan each.

Later, someone discovered that the rice pockets at home were used a lot, costing no money at all, and neither hurting the fish nor catching their fins.

The big golden carp that was just limp just now became alive and kicking as soon as it was put into Zhang An's bucket, and it no longer looked as dead as before.

Wang Hua and others thought that this thing was short of water. In fact, Zhang An was afraid that the crucian carp inside would be dead and stale, so he put some space spring water in it.
"Okay, let's go back. It's almost afternoon."

Originally, a few people planned to catch a few rods, but found that it was already past four in the afternoon.

In addition, the earthworms just distributed from Zhang An were all used up, so Ding Long suggested that everyone stop the fire.

Everyone else had no objections, although today they didn't have sex with two big guys like Ding Long.

But the fish they caught were not too small. After finally getting earthworms from Zhang An, they also caught a few big fish, which was quite satisfying.

No one else had any objections, and Zhang An naturally had no objections.

He was mainly here to accompany guests today. If he had only been fishing, he would have packed up and gone home.

When everyone was packing up, they all picked out the fish and threw all the small ones into the water, leaving only the big one.

This scene made Zhang An take a good look at them, and he knew how to keep the big ones and let go of the small ones to protect resources.

Although many fishing friends in later generations have such an awareness, it is completely the opposite now.

Because the ecological environment is relatively good, except for a few wealthy people, everyone else is taking advantage of it.

The big fish are sold, and the smaller ones are kept to eat. Even the larvae can be used to stick to the pot.

In fact, Zhang An didn't know that Ding Long and the others didn't pick any fish before, they would take all the fish away. After all, the owner of the stall would take all the fish as long as they were not too small.

But after fishing with Zhang An for a long time today, I found that Zhang An had thrown away a lot of crucian carp as big as one pound.

So they wanted to be on par with Zhang An, otherwise they would be a bit petty if they wanted grass carp and carp that weighed more than a pound.

"It's so fun to fish here, even a pond can be so enjoyable."

Along the way, several people packed up and went back, all talking and laughing, like a group of satisfied people.

"Hey, if you like it, you can come here more often in the future. This pond is not just here. After June, the big river will be a paradise for fishing. There are dozens of fish swimming in groups in front of your eyes. There are many fish. There are big ones weighing twenty or thirty kilograms, and even those weighing more than a hundred kilograms."

There have been big fish in the river for a long time, but the number is not as exaggerated as Zhang An said.

But now, as Zhang An lets a group of big guys in from time to time, just like what he said, you can see big fish swimming in front of your eyes while standing on the shore.

When the temperature rises in a few days, you can often see big fish jumping out of the water.

It is precisely because of this that in recent years, so many fishermen like to come here to fish.

"Oh? There is actually a big guy weighing over 100 kilograms, a turtle, a fish as big as a normal person. What kind of pole do you need to catch it?"

Ding Long and the others didn't think Zhang An was lying. When they were at the river today, they had already seen schools of fish swimming in the water.

"What Zhang An said is not an exaggeration at all. If fishing had not been banned this year, there would be fishing friends everywhere on the river bank now, and you have to go as soon as dawn in the morning, otherwise you will not be able to grab a good fishing spot. Some people want to When fishing, we live directly in the village and go out early the next morning.”

Wang Hua witnessed such a fishing scene with his own eyes. When he came to the village for the first time, he didn't understand why so many people were so crazy about fishing.

But now he feels the same way. If it were him, he probably wouldn't even take it home at night and would have to stay up all night.

"Well, Huazi, we are going to come over and use some space in the future. It doesn't need to be a big space, just build a shop on the ground."

After hearing what Zhang An and Wang Hua said, Ding Long and the others felt as if there were schools of big fish swimming in front of them.

It just so happens that my good friend rented a yard here, so he won't have to worry about having a place to live in the future.

"Come on, come on. You can stay for a few days as long as you don't worry about your house not letting you in when you get home."

Wang Hua didn't care, he was just growing up. Although he rented the yard to open a photo studio, the space on the first floor was definitely enough, and the second floor was still empty.

As Wang Hua chuckled, Zhang An instantly understood that these men probably had a Shudao Mountain at home, but they just didn't know if they could climb over it.

"No, no, hehe."

The words he spoke were not serious, but the expression on his face was somewhat unnatural.

"Alright Zhang An, we plan to go back. We've been in trouble a lot today. Thank you for your hospitality."

Back in the village, they didn't plan to go to Zhang An's house. Instead, they said goodbye to Zhang An at the intersection of the drying field.

"Why are you leaving? Go back and have a meal before leaving. How can you go back with an empty stomach?"

Although they only met on the first day, they are all friends of Wang Hua, and they have known each other for a day.

Asking people to go back without eating is not Zhang An's way of hospitality.

"No, no, it will get dark at night. Just like Hua Zi said, I'm afraid I won't be able to get in when I get home."

Several people live in the city. If they leave now, they can still get home before dark. If they are late, they may be in the dark.

Despite Zhang An's kind invitation to stay, they all had decided to leave, so they could only do as they pleased.

"Well, since you have decided to leave, just wait for me for a few minutes and I will find something to put this big golden carp in for you."

"You can keep it, Zhang An. This is what you caught. It's just the same as your red carp. We can't bear to sell it when we take it back, and we can't even keep it alive."

Ding Long didn't think he caught the fish at first. After all, the pole and bait belonged to Zhang An, and in the end the fish was caught by Zhang An.If Zhang An hadn't caught the pole in the end and couldn't catch the fish, he would still owe someone a pole.

It happened that when they were at Zhang An's house today, they saw the lone red carp.

Now they are just a pair, and it is good to have a companion, but I don't know if the red one and the golden one have a common language.

"Then come often when you have time. I'm usually at home anyway."

The group of people hurried back to the city, and Zhang An did not delay them any longer.

After seeing off a few people, Zhang An went home with a bucket of fish.

"Mom, I caught some crucian carp today. I'll clean it up later. You can make soup for Xiaoying."

After returning home, Zhang An saw his mother preparing dinner in the kitchen, so he shook the crucian carp in the bucket and said.

"Okay, then hurry up and pack up. Someone happened to be selling tofu today, so I bought a piece. I can make crucian carp and tofu soup later."

Wang Fang has long wanted to cook something delicious for her daughter-in-law, but she has never dared to do it, fearing that she would overdo the nutritional supplements like what her son said.

"Hey, what kind of fish is this? How did it grow like this?"

Wang Fang originally wanted to see the crucian carp her son caught, but she didn't expect to see the huge golden fish head when she opened the lid of the bucket.

"Mom, this is a carp caught in Qingkou Pond. It must have mutated, so it has golden scales all over its body."

The whole body of this big golden carp, except for the eyes, even the fish's mouth is golden, no different from the one made of gold.

You know, Zhang An’s red carp still has a white mouth.

"I have never seen a fish like this in decades of living. Xiao An, will you be unable to catch it?"

Although Zhang An has changed a lot about his parents in the past two years, Wang Fang still cannot change his mind.

"What's so hard to catch? We have a red carp at home. We just caught it and made a pair. The fish tank will be more lively."

Moreover, this big golden carp is a male carp. Zhang An had seen it when he caught it just now.

He was looking forward to what kind of roe the golden carp and red carp would produce if they were paired together.

"By the way, where are your friends? Why didn't they come back together?"

When Wang Fang heard Zhang An talking about the red carp in the fish tank, she didn't think about anything else, but she did think of Wang Hua and the others.
"Don't worry about them. When they came back just now, they left. They said they were afraid that they would rush back to the city after dark and couldn't stay."

After Zhang An finished speaking, he caught the big golden carp in the bucket and put it into a basin, scooped out some space spring water in the water tank, washed it, and put it into the big fish tank.

When Xiaohong saw the big golden carp in the fish tank, she was a little scared because the golden carp was much bigger than it.

But in the end it probably sensed that the new guy was as beautiful a carp as itself, so it started to get closer.

Finally, I found that this bigger sibling did not reject it, and was swimming around in the bathtub excitedly.

When King Kong entered the tank, he was a little dazed at first and didn't move much at the bottom of the water. This is normal when he has just arrived in a strange place.

But he calmed down immediately, especially when he could see similar species. After all, there were many carp where he lived before.

Although the one in front of him was different from the other companions, he did not reject it and soon started swimming with Xiao Hong.

"It seems that you two are quite suitable. Let's live a good life in the future. Since you are covered in golden light, let's call it Jin Jia."

The big golden carp is golden from the inside to the outside, and is very large, so it is very appropriate to call it Jinjia.

Fortunately, when Ding Yi chose the fish tank, he chose the largest one, otherwise he wouldn't be able to fit the golden armor.

This guy is more than two feet long, and with the golden scales on his body, he is too eye-catching when he swims.

Later, Zhang An saw that Jin Jia and Xiao Hong were getting along very harmoniously, with a sniff-me-and-look-at-you trend, so he ignored them.

I picked up a crucian carp from the bucket with one hand and took it to the water pipe to start cleaning it up.

The crucian carp caught by Zhang An today was more than a pound in size. Two fish and some tofu can be stewed in a pot.

A family of four would definitely not be able to eat it all, and there would be a lot left over to feed the tiger cubs.

"Hey, Zhang An, where did such a big golden carp come from?"

When Zhang An was picking up the crucian carp, he heard Su Ying's surprised words.

During this period of time, after she woke up, she was used to feeding Xiaohong.

Unexpectedly, when I went downstairs today, I found a big golden carp in the fish tank.

"Of course I caught it. Isn't it beautiful? Hehe."

Su Ying didn't say anything, but she kept nodding her head to show that she liked it very much.

At night, in the dead of night, Zhang An still wakes up. He has entered the space so many times recently that he has developed a habit.

As usual, he only entered the space after confirming whether Su Ying beside him was asleep.

The first task today is to find a place to plant the Polygonum spicata collected in the afternoon.

This thing didn't cost much, so Zhang An planted some randomly and started pouring spring water on them to speed up their growth.

When the new Polygonum spp. grows, we start making the koji.

Zhang An had never been exposed to this thing before, and even the wine and medicine used to make sweet wine at home were bought on the street.

But this doesn't affect anything. Zhang An has found a lot of information in the past two days, and even went to Wang Xinhua's house to ask his old man for advice on making Jiuqu.

After all, their old man has been roasting wine for a lifetime, and the wine koji used is all made by the old man himself.

It is said that their koji is better than the ones sold on the street, so with the same grain, their family can produce more wine than other brewing families.

Of course, Zhang An only asked him some questions about the process of making distiller's yeast.

It didn't involve some of their recipes, so Mr. Wang was very happy to answer Zhang An's questions.

After spending a lot of time, Zhang An finally took the first step, and then just waited for saccharification and fermentation.

Although the whole process takes a lot of time, the most important thing Zhang An lacks in space is time.

Zhang An can prepare the wine koji in two days at most.

But with this koji, the brewing process still needs to be postponed because Su Ying is still at home these two days.

After Su Ying started school, he could safely and boldly go to the space to brew wine with the door closed.
