Chapter 6: Lake Baikal (6)
In late autumn, the temperature of Lake Baikal hovers in the single digits, even during the day.
In addition, as soon as the lake wind blew, a chill went straight to the neck.
For Tan Ziqing, who came from southern China, this climate is really not too friendly.
"Brother Yang, you don't have to keep shooting here for this material, right?
The wind blows me, my hands are numb, don't you feel cold when you wear so many clothes?
No, I'll have to go to the cabin and check on Ah Ling's condition. ”
Putting the camera aside, Tan Ziqing rubbed her hands and shivered as she drilled into the cabin.
"Go, go, don't really catch a cold.
And Brother De, don't stay with me here, go to the cabin to take shelter from the wind.
It's so far from our accommodation that we're going to have to eat on the boat at noon today.
You take these fish, go inside with Tan Zi to clean up, and we'll eat hot pot later. ”
Looking at the sky, it was still so gloomy, Yang Zi began to beckon his companions to help him cook the fish.
The waters they are in now are not even populated on the shoreline of the lake, let alone restaurants.
Seeing that the time was close to noon, Yang Zi planned to finish eating first and then change places in the afternoon to try fishing.
For the sake of food, Tan Ziqing and Wood were full of energy, Yang Zi only waited on the deck for about ten minutes, and the two beckoned him down in the cabin.
Seeing that the fish had not been doing well at this time, he confiscated the fishing rod and went directly to the lower level to start making lunch.
In China, all kinds of hot pot culture have long been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.
The cooking is simple, the eating methods are diverse, the taste is varied, and the portion size is also very well matched, which is simply a must-have medicine for a monk's trip... No, it's a must-have.
After boiling the pre-prepared hot pot base with water on the stove, Yang Zi picked up the fish that Wood had killed and washed, and began to change the knife again.
He patiently removed the fish bones, put them in the pot with the head and tail to improve the freshness, and the cut fish meat was beaten into thin slices and put on a plate to eat.
Throughout the morning, Yang Zi caught a total of about 20 catties of fish.
Except for those that tasted bad, and a few endangered fish species, the remaining ten catties were all put on a plate by him.
When the cooking was finished here, and the base of the hot pot had already boiled, Yang Zi beckoned Brother De to bring the lettuce to the table, and he ran to the compartment and shouted Qiaoqiao to get up and eat.
"My Sleeping Beauty! Have you slept enough?
Do you need your Prince Charming to offer a kiss that disenchants the magic?"
Looking at the Qiaoqiao who wrapped himself tightly in the quilt on the bed, Yang Zi walked over and lifted a corner, and then arched his head into it while laughing.
"Hmm~ I hate it!
I'm still a little dizzy, so let me continue to lie down a little longer. ”
"Haha! Don't stay in bed, get up! You've been lying down for a long time. ”
"Hmph, I lay down for a long time, and I didn't see you come to see me, so I didn't get up. ”
"Don't be so arrogant~
At noon, I prepared a delicious fish fillet hot pot.
If someone else eats it later, don't blame me.
You know, that old man, his appetite is no smaller than yours. ”
"Well, my head seems to be better all of a sudden, you help me down, let's go get something to eat first." ”
"Uh-huh.................."
………………
A pot of six or seven pounds of fish fillets, as well as a lot of side dishes, were quickly eaten clean and slippery under the crazy attack of a group of foodies.
"Hiccup~ Brother Yang, have you gained anything from staying here for a long time?
I see you've been fishing, can you find any information in this way?
Otherwise, let's ask a few more local fishermen and see if we can get some gossip. ”
At the dining table, Tan Ziqing asked Yang Zi while burping.
"It's still expected, but it's hard to say for the time being, the fish are too mixed, let's try it in another place in the afternoon."
I have already recorded the species and number of fish caught in the morning, and as long as there is a comparison, and then I delete some places by the elimination method, it should not take long to come to a conclusion.
You see, this is a topographic map of Lake Baikal, and we are located here, probably in the north, and in the middle of it is the port of Tulta.
In the deep-water lake basin to the south, except near the entrance to the Selenga River, the water quality has been affected by pollution from the city and the population, tourism and factories.
As a result, many fish species in the lake no longer like to go there to inhabit and wander, including many shallow water fish that are loved by rays, so they can be directly excluded.
As for the entrance to the Selenga River, the Delta Botanical Reserve can be used as a destination for us to try.
In this way, in fact, the lake that we really want to explore and fish is not very wide.
At that time, we will be able to synthesize the data and we will be able to roughly delineate the range of the fish.
Of course, your idea is also very good, so let's call it a day early this afternoon.
When you get to your accommodation, you can go to the neighborhood to help me get some news and come back to see if I can get something out.
How's that? No comment, right?"
After talking about his plan and intentions, Yang Zi listened to Tan Ziqing's ideas, and also agreed with them, and directly said that they were included in the plan.
"Haha! This is no problem, I'll ask Lev to take me to visit, and everyone will wait for my good news at home then!"
Seeing that her proposal was accepted, Tan Ziqing hurriedly nodded and agreed.
He has been on a good relationship with Lev recently, and with such a little favor, the other party should not refuse him.
"Okay, a few people have finished eating, Ah Ling and they have also improved a little, let's continue to start today's work!
Tanzi, you let Lao Maozi drive the boat and take us to continue to drive north for a distance, and we will explore this shallow water area first. ”
"No, we're going to sail again, we've just had lunch! Do we have to vomit again?"
"It's okay, it's okay, I'll let Lao Maozi drive slowly, don't worry!
Besides, this spitting and spitting will soon get used to it. ”
"Uh..............."
………………
Sitting on the sofa in the lobby of the hotel, Yang Zi looked at the snowflakes floating outside the window, and couldn't help rubbing his temples with a headache.
At about four o'clock in the afternoon, they were about to return to the sea when a strong wind of four or five degrees blew on the lake, and the temperature suddenly plummeted.
Then, after a while, it began to snow.
From the fragments at the beginning, it gradually grew larger later, and when it was not yet dark, it was already white outside.
If it was in his hometown, Yang Zi would happily call Qiaoqiao to play in the snow, but now, he really didn't have that mood.
Because of the arrival of this snowfall, it was very unfavorable to their fishing plan this time.
