Chapter 2052: Water Fish
"There are a lot of fish and shrimp in my reservoir, as well as snails and mussels, all of which are wild. When it got hot later, I went into the water to get some to eat. If you go to the reservoir and work in the reservoir, you can catch a lot of those things. ”
Zhang Chu went to this reservoir to fish and touch snails when he was a child, this is his main battlefield, and he has a lot of experience. These things are still very attractive to Lao Li and them.
"How many fish do you have in this reservoir, and what kind of fish do you have?"
The reservoir that Zhang Chu's family bought was much smaller than Songshan Lake, where they used to go fishing, or it was not comparable at all. Plus the place is different, so Lao Li will ask. After all, this is not Guangdong Province, and the fish will be different.
"Although my reservoir is not very big, it has not been dried for decades, and there are a lot of fish in it, and there must be big fish. It's just hard to say whether you can catch it or not. There used to be a few dozens of catties of fish, herring, grass carp and carp from the net. ”
Smiling, Zhang Chu explained to Lao Li, but he didn't say so much about the situation of the reservoir. The fish here, Zhang Chu is naturally very familiar.
"The main fish species on our side are grass carp, carp, silver carp and herring, as well as catfish and black fish. The smaller fish are crucian carp and white stripe, and there are no tilapia and dace. ”
Some species are similar to those in the south, but others are rarely seen there. And some of the fish species over there are not on Zhang Chu's side.
A few people found a place and put the rod down. They came here to have a look, and they all came with fishing rods, just to enjoy the fun of fishing here.
"We haven't done it for decades? So we don't have to use sea fishing? Maybe we'll be able to catch a big fish of a few dozen pounds later." ”
Chen Sheng listened to Zhang Chu's words and replied, after following the fishing a few times, what he wanted most now was to catch a big fish, and then a few people took a group photo together, and there was nothing to show off.
Every time he sees a group photo of Lao Li Zhang Chu after they caught a big fish, he will have this idea. Now that there is this opportunity here, he will naturally look forward to it.
"Well, we have to change the line. ”
After listening to Lao Li's instructions, they came to catch big fish, so the preparations were very sufficient. Only Zhang Chu prepared a pair for hand fishing, which was used to catch white stripes and crucian carp.
Except for Zhang Chu and a few people on the reservoir side, only Zhang Chu's father is there, but he is busy. He spends most of his time here, and in addition to watching those tea trees, he also has to be responsible for feeding such chickens, ducks and pigs.
The people who invited them were busy with the double robbery at this time, and they would not come over to continue to do things until the double robbery was over, otherwise Zhang Chu's parents and the two of them would not be able to wait for the two of them here.
After hanging the fishing rod on the bait and putting it down, he remembered that his old tea tree was next to him, so Zhang Chu took Lao Li and them to see the tea tree first. The fishing rod is not afraid to walk away for a while, and the bell will ring when a fish is hooked, and it can be heard from afar.
"These are the ancient tea trees you were talking about?"
The location of the tea trees is next to the house built by Zhang Chu's family on this side of the reservoir, and there is a mountain spring water brought from the other side of the mountain, which happens to flow next to several tea trees, and it usually does not need to be taken care of.
"Well, the water from this little ditch is from the spring water from the other side of the mountain, and with the quality of the soil and the age of the tea tree, the tea produced is so good. But there are only a few tea trees in this one, and the others have almost been cut down. ”
Zhang Chu nodded, the atmosphere of drinking tea here is not very prosperous, so the people here do not attach much importance to tea trees. In the early years, these ancient tea trees were at their worst damaged.
I heard Zhang Chu's mother say that there were still a lot of such ancient tea trees here in the past. These are all things left over from the ancestors, and as a result, most of them were cut down during the steelmaking, and the rest were cut down one after another or died themselves.
After the fields were divided into households, because of the reason of eating enough and because they wanted to expand the cultivated land as much as possible, these old tea trees were not taken seriously, but because of the land occupation, part of it was cut down again.
So far, there are only a few left. This is still Zhang Chu thought about in advance, otherwise there would be no few left, and his own two would be cut down.
"The soil quality here is good, plus this landscape, halfway up the hillside, it is indeed a good place for growing tea. It's a little small, or you're probably going to be famous for these teas. ”
Lao Li took a closer look at these tea trees, he had drunk the tea leaves of these tea trees, and knew the advantages of these tea leaves. It's a pity that the number is too small to make the climate.
Chen Sheng and Zheng Sheng were not very interested in this, and they had never drunk the tea leaves brought by Zhang Chu, so they naturally couldn't appreciate the benefits of these teas.
After the four of them looked at the tea tree, they immediately walked to the fishing rod. At that moment, the bell of the fishing rod placed there rang.
"Fish hooked so soon?"
After Chen Sheng heard this, he didn't wait for Zhang Chu and them to react, and ran over there first. Lao Li looked at him and smiled, and then another fishing rod sounded.
It's not a pair of rods with fish, it's now two rods. This made Zhang Chu and the others also speed up their pace a little and ran towards the fishing rod.
There was a pair of Chen Sheng's fishing rods in the fishing rod that rang the bell, but the fish he caught was not very big, just a carp of three or four catties.
Another pair of ringing fishing rods was Zheng Sheng's sea fishing, and to the surprise of the four people, Zheng Sheng actually caught a soft-shelled turtle of two or three catties.
"This thing still eats bait?"
After Chen Sheng put his fish in the fishing net, he looked at the soft-shelled turtle that Zheng Sheng caught, and couldn't help but ask curiously. He thinks that this kind of thing shouldn't eat bait.
"I guess I don't eat it, I think I swam past the edge of the fishing rod and then got hooked. This is a good thing, two or three catties of wild water fish, it seems that we have a good mouth today. ”
Lao Li looked at the two or three catties of water fish that was caught and smiled, these days, this kind of pure wild water fish, even if you have money, it is difficult to buy.
There are many in captivity, and the price is not expensive, but there are few wild ones. This also makes people more and more rare for this kind of wild thing, and rare things are expensive.
"Xiao Chu, what do you do with the fish here? This good thing can't be eaten casually, it's too wasteful. ”
Good things naturally have to be made well, and they can be eaten casually, which is really a waste. Although Lao Li is not a gourmet, he still has some experience in how to eat fish in the water.
"We make this kind of stuff here is steaming or making soup, and when it is steamed, we don't put any ingredients, just put some salt. If you make soup, you will put herbs and eat it with the old hen. ”
Speaking of this practice, Zhang Chu will think of the water fish and chicken soup he once ate at home. At that time, I was young, and after eating it, I immediately had a nosebleed, so I couldn't help but add.
"Water fish old hen soup, because of the addition of medicinal herbs, that kind of soup is a bit replenishing. I ate it once before and I had a nosebleed when I finished eating it. ”
