069 The Legend of the Great Mussel

"This grouper generally likes to live in the relatively warm waters of the South China Sea, and it probably appears here because the water temperature of the sea here has not receded in summer."

The fisherman continued to explain the living environment of the grouper, but everyone was not interested in listening to it now, they were all thinking that the terrifying power of this big fish could drag such a big fishing boat for more than 20 nautical miles, terrible, terrible!

On the return boat, Yu Qingying was still holding Tang Zhendong's arm, as if Tang Zhendong would disappear as soon as he let go.

"Why are you so desperate, you don't know this fish is so dangerous?"

"Didn't you say big fish, I just want to catch the big fish for you to take a closer look." Tang Zhendong said sincerely to Qingying.

"Promise me, don't do such a dangerous thing in the future."

"Oh, good." Tang Zhendong was actually thinking in his heart, I won't catch such a big fish in the future, but I must take the time to get the huge black pearl back, it shouldn't be so dangerous to take the black pearl!

Just as the two of them were working on me, the Kongtong Island Wharf was already close at hand. The fisherman who explained the grouper to everyone just now came over and said, "I'm sorry, excuse me, what are you going to do with this grouper you caught?" ”

Yu Qingying saw someone coming, and let go of Tang Zhendong's hand, "What, what does the eldest brother think?" ”

"I thought, can you sell me this fish?"

"Oh, what price is the big brother going to offer?"

"One, twenty thousand, twenty thousand, can you see it?" The fisherman seemed a little afraid to speak, and opened his mouth to quote a high price that Tang Zhendong didn't expect. Tang Zhendong originally thought that this fish was 400 catties, and according to 20 yuan a catty, it was only 8,000 yuan, and people bought it all at once, and gave a maximum of 35,000 yuan.

He didn't expect the fisherman to give such a high price at once. Tang Zhendong looked at the fisherman's eyes, his eyes were full of sincerity, the dating palace on the inside of his cheeks was bright and dark, Tang Zhendong instantly concluded that this was a person who was not good at lying.

"I don't think this fish is more than that, right?" Tang Zhendong thought for a while and said.

"It's true that it's more than that, but I'm afraid it won't be easy to sell, so I don't dare to give you too much."

Tang Zhendong turned to Yu Qingying, "Qingying, you say, this fish is for you, you have the final say." ”

"I just want to see the fish, and I didn't say I had to let you catch it for me, you have the final say, I don't care." Yu Qingying kicked the ball to Tang Zhendong again.

"In this way, you sell the fish to you, and after you sell it, you will be given 10,000 yuan for running errands, do you think it's okay?" People came out of the boat to save themselves, although he didn't come, Tang Zhendong would not drown, but after all, the attitude of the people was there, they worked hard and contributed, Tang Zhendong was still grateful in his heart.

"This is okay, but I really don't know how much money I can sell, last year's grouper in Jimo sold for 60,000, this is slightly smaller than last year's, so I can't say, if someone sincerely wants it, then it's about 40,000 or 50,000 is no problem, but if it's not easy to find a buyer, then it may be possible to buy one or two thousand."

Tang Zhendong waved his hand, "Okay, you look at it, if you sell it for 10,000, it will be left to you, if you sell it for 20,000, you will keep 10,000, so be it!" Qingying, do you think this is going to work? ”

"You have the final say, I don't care."

"Alright, that's it."

That afternoon, the fisherman took the fish to Haicheng and contacted the buyer. Tang Zhendong's clothes were thrown on the coast, but Yu Qingying picked them up and kept holding them.

The colleagues of the newspaper heard that Yu Qingying's friend had found it, and they all came to greet him, and it lasted until six or seven o'clock in the evening, when the owner of the house where Tang Zhendong lived, did not start the meal.

The fishermen eat late, and besides, it is the end of summer, and it is just after six o'clock, and it is just dark. Tang Zhendong originally wanted to find some tools, go to the reef in the evening, knock open the big mussel, and steal the huge black pearl.

However, Yu Qingying's friends were very enthusiastic, especially when they heard that someone had caught a big fish of more than 400 catties, and they all wanted to come and see what it was, but they didn't see the appearance of this fish, because the fisherman had already dragged the big fish to the city to find a buyer.

didn't see the real thing, everyone could only ask Tang Zhendong, and Tang Zhendong could only briefly talk about the scene where he caught the fish, but when he described the size of the big fish, everyone invariably expressed their doubts, but this is a matter without evidence, and everyone can only continue to express their doubts to each other.

During the meal, even the owner of the fish who had been fishing all his life asked Tang Zhendong about the scene of the big fish he caught, and when he heard that Tang Zhendong was dragged by the big fish and turned around most of Kongtong Island, the owner was surprised and couldn't close his mouth.

The fishermen are different from Yu Qingying's colleagues, they are all people who have seen the sea, there are too many strange things in the sea, and the risks are too great, there are too many things in the ocean, and humans have never seen them, so when Tang Zhendong talked about the size of the grouper, the owner did not doubt it at all, but the owner was strange how such a big fish could appear on Kongtong Island offshore, and this grouper, which generally likes to grow in the south, would appear in Bohai Bay?

This topic started very well, and along with this topic, the host's chatterbox also began to open, telling many strange things he had encountered at sea, and some interesting things in fishing.

The food was sumptuous, the wine was good, and with this somewhat fantasy topic, everyone was open to drinking. When Tang Zhendong was drinking with the master's family, he also quietly asked the master if there were any pearls in the sea near here? How do you take pearls?

"Let me tell you, young man, the pearls sold now are all cultured, but the real best pearls are all in the sea, some have lived in the sea for hundreds or thousands of years, and the big ones are as big as eggs, but such a big one should be thousands of meters under the sea, and people can't catch them at all."

"How big does it take for a mussel to give birth to such a big pearl?" Although Xu Zhijun is a first-class editor of the newspaper and has seen a lot of the world, it is the first time he has heard of a pearl the size of an egg.

"Who knows, I haven't seen it either, but since pearls are hundreds or thousands of years old, wouldn't the mussels be older, and I feel that they may be bigger than this house."

Tang Zhendong thought of the big clam he saw, although it was not as big as this ten-square-meter room, it was almost half a room the size.

"Isn't such a big mussel about to become a sperm?"

"Who knows, it's also possible to become a sperm, it has lived for so many years."

"That big mussel, even if it has a pearl the size of an egg, can't take it out, and it will suck people into it at once."

"You're right, a mussel of this size has amazing suction, and a slightly smaller fish shouldn't dare to approach easily."
