Chapter 377: Rice Field Fishing Competition

After cutting the rice, the Hehua black carp raised in the paddy field was also fully fished, Ye Quan was about to call someone to collect the fish, and the village chief Ye Shaokun suddenly ran over and asked Ye Quan to keep it temporarily, and the village was ready to hold a "rice field fish catching competition" to see how the tourists reacted.

After hearing this, Ye Quan naturally did not object, and used the space spring water to lure the fish to a nearby paddy field as a venue for the competition, so as not to step on the armpit buds of the regenerated rice.

After the news of the fish catching competition was announced in Taoyuan Village and on the website, it really attracted many people to make a special trip.

For the people in the city, the fishmongers must kill the fish first, and they really haven't experienced it when they go into the rice fields to catch fish with their own hands, so they are naturally interested.

The rules of the competition are simple, you can't use any tools, you can only catch with your bare hands, and the person who catches the most in the allotted 40 minutes has a championship reward.

Guan Hanyu stayed in Taoyuan Village for three days, and when he was about to leave, he heard the news of the rice field fishing competition, discussed it with his wife and son, and then canceled the trip to another scenic spot and planned to stay in the village for another day.

The main reason is that his son Guan Mingxing is having too much fun in Taoyuan Village these days, unlike the city built of steel and concrete, the countryside is a completely different world, and Guan Mingxing has also made friends with several peers in the village.

On the third day, Guan Mingxing even left his parents behind and went to play with a few new friends.

The race started at 3 p.m., and it was very hot, but the enthusiasm was undiminished, with about 300 tourists and the children of the village. Gather on the ridges around you. Fortunately, the rice has now been cut. Otherwise, it will be very crowded.

With the referee's order, the people who handed in the tickets and were ready to participate rushed up, and the scene was very spectacular.

Guan Hanyu rolled up his trouser legs, took his son's little hand, and walked barefoot into the paddy field, as if returning to the happy time of catching fish in the mud pond of his hometown in his childhood.

Hundreds of people poured into the paddy fields, and such a loud noise naturally alarmed the fish in the paddy fields, especially the fish next to the ridges of the paddy fields swam quickly. Marks were drawn on the surface of the water, and even fish jumped out of the water, causing a burst of exclamations.

However, despite the fact that the paddy fields are full of fish, you can even clearly feel the touch of the fish swimming from the ankles or insteps of the feet.

First, this paddy field has raised the ridge, which is about 30 centimeters deep after impoundment, and the size of the Hehua black carp is not large. When the water is muddy, it is difficult to see the underwater situation clearly.

Most importantly. This batch of black carp was raised by Ye Quan with space spring water, and it is more flexible and vigorous than ordinary wild fish, swimming extremely fast, and those with slightly slower hands and feet have to rely on some luck to catch them.

In addition to the eyes and hands are fast, when catching fish is more important is experience, to approach quietly, but also to see accurately, when catching fast, ruthless, accurate, catch the upper body of the fish, it is best to be the gills there, with the tips of the fingers tightly buckled, if caught in the fish scales or fish tail, the fish body is slippery, and it is often unstable when struggling.

Many people were obviously caught, but they couldn't catch it steadily, and they escaped again. When the fish struggled, they were stained by the muddy water and even splashed on their faces, but no one cared about this, and they all struggled to catch it, and they had no time to care.

The scene was jubilant, laughter continued, from time to time someone caught a fish, looking happy, shouting and showing off, and let their relatives and friends around them take pictures.

There are really a lot of fish in the paddy field, almost one by one, many people catch one or even several black carp, at this time everyone shows their powers, some people have already prepared, with buckets, basins and even plastic bags and the like, some people are not prepared, is in a hurry, so they came up with various methods, some with hats, some with clothes to wrap, some people are more experienced, from the roadside or ridge to pull a few straw or thin rattan, from the gills of the fish strung up in the hand.

There are also people who are very lucky to catch a red carp, which is bright red and very beautiful.

Guan Hanyu's family of three caught a total of 10 fish at the end of the game, each of which was black and translucent, about six or seven taels, in order to catch fish, the family made it like a mud monkey, and was sweaty, and the waist was tired, but what everyone wanted was this feeling, close to nature, into the field, to feel the rich rural pastoral charm.

However, Guan Hanyu's family is not much, and the champion is a male tourist in his forties, with a score of 31, and two large strings of thin rattan sticks.

The school is closed, the children in the village are in the state of herding sheep, almost all of them came to participate in this competition, although they are young, but they have a lot of experience in catching fish, more or less have gains.

Ye Quan and Han Yueying took Ye Ni and a few other female dolls to toss in the paddy fields.

Although Ye Ni, Ye Yao and others are all small-handed and small-footed, they have experience in catching fish in streams or ditches, and they can cooperate, and they know how to drive fish to a dead corner, or fence them up to catch them, and the results are not bad.

Tourists to participate in the fish competition ticket is 40 yuan a piece, children are free, the catch of the fish is their own, people who live close can be taken away with a bucket, far away can only get to the farmhouse to eat a whole fish feast, you can also pay for the villagers to help process and dry.

Taoyuan Village's practice of drying mullet carp is more unique, first cut the Hehua fish, put sour water, vinegar, ginger, salt, etc. to cook, put it on the rice sieve or grain sieve covered with clean straw, sprinkle chaff, straw shell or pine sawdust on the charcoal, etc., to produce fireworks drying, can be stored for a long time, and take it to eat when you want to eat.

The dried Hehua black carp has a unique flavor and is one of the famous local specialties in the Nanyueling area.

If you don't have time, you can let the villagers mail it to tourists after drying.

Nowadays, many fruits in Taoyuan Village, including some vegetables that can be stored for a long time, are sold by mail through guò after gaining a reputation among tourists.

Hehua black carp was originally known for its delicate meat, soft bones without fishy smell, and the fragrance of grass flowers, and it was once a tribute designated by the royal family.

When the rice heading and long grains, the grass flowers fall into the water, and the black carp uses this as the main source of food, and also feeds on insects and weeds, without putting any feed, which is absolutely green and natural farming.

This batch of fish is raised with space spring water, and its taste is so delicious that the tourists who eat the fish have endless aftertaste and are addicted, thinking that this delicacy alone is worth the round-trip fare.

Knowing that the Hehua black carp tastes more fragrant after drying, many tourists can't help but be moved.

Even Chef Shi, who has seen countless delicacies from the mountains and seas, after eating a meal, is also poured for this kind of black carp, in addition to the traditional stew, frying, frying and other practices in Taoyuan Village, he has also figured out more than ten new methods, so that the people who eat it are full of praise.

Because the fish raised by Ye Quan are many and difficult to catch, after pulling the net to reduce the area, the "fish catching competition" was held for a total of three days and a total of six games, so that the black carp in the paddy field was almost caught, and the number of people participating in the competition was more and more than one game.

Seeing that the activity of catching fish in the rice field was so popular, Ye Mingsheng, Ye Shaokun and other village cadres immediately planned a rice field of dozens of acres, and took advantage of the opportunity when the late rice had not yet been planted to order a batch of fish fry to be used for fish raising.

In this way, before the heading of late rice and after harvesting, Taoyuan Village can hold two more "rice field fish catching competitions", and can also increase the content of rice field fishing, family fishing, couples and couples catching fish, cooking fish and other competitions, so as to attract tourists to come and enjoy the fun of catching and eating fish.

In fact, this fishing competition is extremely uneconomical for Ye Quan, the real Hehua black carp, the price on the market is forty or fifty yuan a catty, and after drying, it is close to three hundred yuan a catty.

The quality of the fish raised by Ye Quan is better, and there are sales channels, no matter how expensive it is two or three times, it can be sold, and the three-day ticket income is very rich in the eyes of other villagers, but if you really calculate it, you will find that there are too many losses, but everyone is happy, Ye Quan doesn't care at all.
