Back To the Small Fishing Village In 1982

  Chapter 224 Ugly Strange Fish

   Not everyone agrees with them. There are also people who walk on the shore, but more people stay to see the situation.

  Who would be willing to give up wasted money? Picking up a sack is enough for a day’s wages. It was only a short while in the morning, and everyone picked up half a bag, let alone yesterday.

Although Mother Ye got a tiger spot by fishing in troubled waters, she didn't want to go down and squeeze with so many people. Maybe there would be another fight later on. It's already a good deal, so don't join in the fun. She was also wet from the splash of water. up.

   "Then let's sell the goods, go back, and come out to watch the fun after taking a shower."

Ah Guang whispered to Ye Huimei: "I'll take you back to soak your feet, you'll be out later, I'll accompany you out to watch the fun, don't go down if you pick it up. I told you in the morning, don't go into the water, you won't listen ..."

   "I didn't know there was going to be chaos."

  Ye Huimei was also afraid, and didn't want to go down to pick it up anymore.

   "Let's go, I'll keep half of the bag in my hand and take it back to dry, and take the one in your hand to weigh it, and by the way, the grouper will also be sold."

   After Father Ye spoke, they all went to the purchase point. No one sells now, and they don't need to wait, they just walk out after the weighing.

  It was only when I came out that I saw that the boss, the second child, and the couple were still standing still, still watching, so I just asked, let’s take a look first...

   Then ignore them, they are not children.

Ye Yaodong waited for his parents to leave, and then stood on the shore for a while. Those young people who were fighting on the water were finally tired from fighting. They were all wet, with bruised noses and swollen faces, and were pulled away by familiar relatives and friends. Climb ashore.

  The people who were watching on the shore went into the water again...

   Sister-in-law Ye and Second-sister-in-law Ye also dragged their men to continue...

  They all think very well. If there is another conflict, they just climb ashore and walk quickly. It’s a pity not to pick up the money dropped in the sky. Three or four starfish will get two cents.

  Ye Yaodong didn't care about them, he planned to go out to sea to collect the cages. Looking at everyone's harvest this morning, there must be a lot of starfish on the bottom of the sea, so he can collect another wave.

  Pull the boat away from the shore and head for the distant sea. From time to time on the road, some small boats are working, or returning, he can see that they are full of starfish, and everyone on the boat is beaming.

   Aren't you happy?

   You don’t need to go into the water at the pier to fight with a group of people, and you can easily harvest most of the boat.

  He drove to the sea area where he put his ground cage, and he just received a wave last night. Only a few hours later, as soon as his ground cage was pulled up, the fish collection bag under it was full of starfish again.

  After scooping up all the ground cages, he once again harvested half a boatload of starfish and a little bit of small fish, but there were no larger ones, after all, he just collected them last night.

  After putting the ground cage back into the sea, he returned directly. It seemed that there were no waves on the sea today, and it was estimated that he should be able to go to sea at night.

  After the fishing boat returned to the pier again, he took the sack and slowly loaded the boat by himself, taking a look at the excitement not far away.

   Only two or three hours later, there was another conflict in the water.

   But this time there were a lot fewer people, and the opportunity was not good, and there were quite a few people who went ashore. Most of the people in the water were helping to fight...

   A few fishing boats that just came back beside me are also watching with gusto.

  The pier is a bit noisy today.

   After Ye Yaodong took all the starfish to the scale, he patted his **** and left, regardless of whether the shore was still crowded with people.

   It's already past the time for eating, these people don't eat, he wants to eat.

   After he went back, Lin Xiuqing was relieved, "If you don't come back, I'm going to go out and look for it."

   "It's a good thing you didn't go, the pier was crowded with people."

  He told Lin Xiuqing about the continuous conflicts in the morning, and she frowned, "You didn't go into the water, did you?"

   "No, I'll just watch the fun on the shore,"

  She couldn't help but rejoice, "Fortunately, you woke up late in the morning and didn't go out. There are so many people, and even a little collision can easily lead to conflicts."

"Um."

  He didn't plan to go out to pick it up today, but yesterday he picked it up all day, and his waist was about to break, so it's better to close the ground cage net, it's easy and fast.

   "The starfish in the ground cage just sold another 510 catties, 10 yuan and 20 cents. I think we can get another wave tomorrow."

  She put away the list with a smile, "This is good, so you don't have to fight with a bunch of people."

   "Now there are no waves on the sea, and I should go to sea at night."

   "Well, I see."

   After Ye Yaodong ate a bunch of kidney-supplementing vegetables, he went to take a nap to recuperate and replenish his sleep.

   When he woke up in the middle of the afternoon and took two puffs of cigarettes at the entrance of the station, he saw the four adults next door come back as if they were drowned.

  He was also convinced, and he was able to persist until now. It seems that he has walked in the water.

   "Eldest brother and sister-in-law, second brother and second sister-in-law, it seems that they made a lot of money today?"

"Uh... It's okay, there are too many people today, so I sold it for 6 yuan..." Before the second brother could finish speaking, he was elbowed by the second sister-in-law Ye, glared at him, and then was pushed into the house go.

  Ye Yaodong pursed his mouth, cut~ if he doesn’t say it, don’t say it~

  I made an agreement with Father Ye in advance to go out to sea around three o'clock at night, and he would go to the pier and wait outside on time when he arrived.

  Because the raft hook was lost in the sea for several days, and there were waves these days, he was not sure whether he could find it. He didn’t prepare bait in advance tonight, and planned to focus on trawling today.

   After filling up the diesel, they set off directly when Father Ye came.

  An autumn rain, a cold, the temperature has obviously dropped several degrees in the past few days, the sea is colder than the land, and the cold wind brought by the boat during the driving process is biting, and it still feels a little wet and cold.

  He just had his cropped hair cut in the evening, and now he feels his head is bare, and it is extremely cold. He is walking against the wind, and the wind is blowing in from the hat, making it chilly.

   I don't know if his father's hairline has shifted his forehead, whether it's cold or not.

   "What are you looking at?" Father Ye felt his gaze, touched his forehead, a little puzzled.

   "No, it feels quite cold at sea."

   "Sail the boat carefully, don't look left and right, and be careful of hitting the rocks."

"knew."

  He identified the direction and moved forward at a constant speed in the dark. After driving for more than an hour and reaching the approximate target sea area, he slowed down and started searching on the sea.

  Father Ye also took a flashlight and took photos everywhere on the beach. This place is too far from the shore, so it is not suitable to leave it overnight.

  The sea area is so wide, even if you know the approximate location, it is not so easy to find a buoy, and there is no guarantee when the wind will blow up, and the buoy can easily be washed away when the waves are big.

  The father and son drove the boat on the sea for a while, but they didn't see it in the surrounding area, and they didn't know if they had deviated.

  Ye Yaodong was a little depressed, "Don't waste time, now it's dark and the light is not good, let's search while trawling the net."

   "Alright, it's easier to find it at dawn. I'll look around while trawling the net. I'll go and release the net."

   It's a good thing they can still trawl.

  He turned slowly in the surrounding waters at 3-5 nautical miles per hour. When the sky was bright, he drove for a long time. It was not until seven o'clock that he pulled up the first net.

I don’t know if it’s because of the low temperature recently. The fish are not active and often forage. Although there are waves these days, there are not many fish caught on the first net. The most is the pippi shrimp, which weighs twenty catties look.

But at this time the Pippi shrimp was not very fat, Ye Yaodong poured out the goods and picked a few, after looking at it, he could only say that it was very average, although it was not empty, but the meat was not very full, let alone the red paste , and most of them are extremely small.

   "Father, it's cold, the fish are not active, they all sink to the bottom, it's hard to catch."

   "Well, it's cold in winter, and those who should migrate have migrated."

  He frowned, picked and picked, and said, "I'll go back and ask someone to make a sticky net to try. It should be deeper. It seems more appropriate to use a sticky net in winter."

  Father Ye thought for a while and said, "The cost of sticking the net is not high, but a net can only be used three or five times, and it is easy to break the net if it catches a big fish."

   "Make a test first."

   "Then you can figure it out, and you can make a test first when you go back."

  He asked his father to sail the boat, and he came to release the nets and pick them by the way.

  Some of them are very small, and he picks them all up and throws them into the sea. They cannot be sold for money, and they are not good as bait, so let them return to the sea and continue to grow.

Looking at the seabirds flying at low altitude that had been following their fishing boat, he picked up a few small fish and threw them to the sea surface. These seabirds immediately rushed down to hunt for prey. And quickly flew into the air.

  After sorting almost all the fish, it seems that the quantity is even less. Most of them are some worthless small fish and shrimp. The only ones that can be sold for money are the few catties of pippi shrimp and a few larger fish.

   The moment he looked up and stood up, he saw his buoy in the distance.

  Father Ye also saw it, and said happily: "Dongzi, I found it."

   "Well, first drag this net up before going over."

  It’s good if you can find it, otherwise it will cost a lot of money to do it again.

   After wandering around the surrounding waters for another two hours, Father Ye set up the net again. This time the goods were still not much, and it was particularly miscellaneous. There were still more Pipi shrimp.

  Fortunately, the weather is cold now, and the sea wind is strong, so there will be fewer fishing boats going out to sea. Although Pipi shrimp is not fat, the price has risen recently.

   Some time ago, the small ones dropped to 20 cents a catty, but recently they started to rise to 40 cents.

  After pouring out all the fish, they didn't care about tidying up, so they went back to collect the hooks first. They haven't gone to sea for 4 days, and they don't know if some fish are all stinky.

  After approaching the buoy, Ye Yaodong put away the buoy and tried to pull it. This time, the sinking stone rope was not stuck and was pulled up smoothly.

  After the experience of being stuck once, he would be a little worried when he collected it. It is so cold that it is not easy to go into the water.

  He continued to take up the line. It has been four days, too long. He didn't have much hope at first, but he felt a little weight after pulling it.

  He scrolled the main line and pulled up the branch line, but saw a black strange fish suddenly coming up from the sea.

"what is this?"

  Father Ye looked at the big fish that had just been pulled up from the sea with a dazed expression. Its mouth was still opening and closing, and the hook pierced its lower jaw.

  Ye Yaodong is also very confused, this fish is so ugly, he has never seen it before? ?

   "Pull it up first, it's a bit heavy."

  The fish was in a half-dead state, and there was no struggle when it was pulled up, and it went smoothly.

  I saw this ugly and frightening strange fish, more than 40 centimeters long, black all over, its teeth were like pointed glass shards, and there was a small black broom-like "rod" on top of its head, like a light bulb.

  Its mouth is so big that it can swallow fish as big as itself, and its teeth are especially sharp.
