Chapter 725: You have to pay for fishing
Mobile reading
The air is fresh and the natural scenery is beautiful.
Although the city was not as good as planned in later generations, Ye Qing still watched the scenery for a long time along the way.
Houmoxi is located in the western suburbs of Jianzhou, about 30 miles away from the city. Formerly known as Longxi, it is the boundary between Gushan Town and Mawei Town.
I heard that there are a lot of fish species in the stream, especially the local characteristics of the creek yellow cat, big eye and so on.
Yellow catfish is also commonly known as: ang thorn fish, yellow bone fish, yellow girl, yellow duck call, yellow shagu, yellow thorn gong, yellow latin, gayazi, ang thorn fish, wang ya fish, hair loach.
Living in still water or slow-flowing shallows, day and night, there is a famous dish called yellow duck called stewed tofu in Jianzhou.
Remove the internal organs of the yellow catfish, wash and drain it and set aside, heat it in an iron pot, pour in an appropriate amount of oil, and put a little salt to prevent the fish skin from being fried.
After the oil is heated, put in the yellow catfish one by one, fry on low heat, fry one side of the fish, when you can smell the fragrance, turn the fish over with chopsticks, and fry the other side until it is slightly yellow.
Wash the tofu, cut it into small pieces, boil it in the casserole, and put the tofu cubes into the casserole.
Put the yellow catfish in the frying pan into a casserole and stew with the tofu cubes, put some dried chili peppers, boil on high heat until boiling, then change to low heat and add salt to taste.
Add the shallots and ginger and continue to simmer, then add pepper and a little wine to taste, and remove the shallot knots.
"Thousands of stewed tofu and ten thousand stewed fish!" The white, delicate and delicious tofu and fish are vividly reflected in this dish, and the taste is croaking.
An hour later, the carriage arrived at Longmen Village in Houmoxi.
To enter Longmen Village, you have to pass through a culvert, which is an ancient stone single-hole culvert, the inner wall is completely made of blue bricks, and the length is only a few tens of meters.
After passing the culvert and walking to the right for 200 meters, you will arrive at the entrance of Longmen Village, and Ye Qing found that the scenery here is more beautiful than Xiushui Village.
But it was a little bumpy to take the carriage again, and Ye Qing and his party got out of the carriage and walked towards the stream.
Although there were not many of them, they were dressed differently from the villagers, and when a dark-skinned villager saw them on the road, he came up directly to greet them and asked them if they were looking for someone or what they were doing.
"We're here to fish." Ye Qing explained to the villagers.
The villagers were surprised and asked, "Fishing?" You've come all the way from the city to fish! ”
"Yes! Uncle, I don't know where to fish here? Dongqu also stepped forward to answer.
"This is the Longmen Reservoir above here, and outsiders can't just come and fish. However, if you are willing to pay, the old man will help you ask Muramasa. ”
Ye Qing was stunned for a moment when he heard this.
She also thought that in ancient times, as long as it was not in a private place where fish was raised, it was possible to fish casually.
But since this is a reservoir and it is necessary to ask for the consent of the villagers, she still smiled politely and nodded: "Okay, trouble the old man." ”
"You'll wait here for a while." The old man took his hoe and walked towards the village.
Ye Qing and the others looked at each other, Qian Duoduo stretched out his hand and scratched the back of his head and said, "Young Master, Young Madam, what if the village here waits and still doesn't agree with us fishing here?" ”
Qian Junbao picked up the fan and fanned himself, and answered: "No, it's all here." Even if you have to pay them a little more, it's okay. ”
When he goes out, he doesn't want to care so much about spending a little money, and the most important thing is that he can't sweep away everyone's interest in spending time here.
"What if they open their mouths?" Qian Duoduo asked again.
The corners of Ye Qing's eyebrows twitched, and he pointed to a small rocky beach and said, "Duoduo, you think too much, do you think you came here to fish for Arowana?"
Let's wait there, and you lead the carriage under the shady tree. ”
Qian Duoduo nodded, and the others walked towards the small rocky beach.
Huo Zimeng opened the big oil-paper umbrella and prepared to find a place to insert it.
Ye Qing took out a small black shovel from the back basket behind him, found a flat and dry big stone, dug a half-foot-deep hole in the ground nearby, and said, "Stick the umbrella here, and then pile it with some stones to fix it." ”
Huo Zimeng nodded and did so.
Dongqu put the pony in place, and magically took out a piece of blue coarse cloth and spread it on the big stone, and placed the bamboo box she was carrying on it.
It was filled with water and snacks.
Ye Qing took out the fishing line, swim bladder and bait from the back basket.
"Come here, let's look around here to see if there are any fine bamboos, and cut a few to make fishing rods."
"Great!" Qian Duoduo rolled up his sleeves and walked over with a black machete that had been secured a long time ago.
Ye Qing and Qian Duoduo searched for half an hour near the edge of the stream and found a place overgrown with spotted bamboo.
When he was a child, Ye Qing followed his master to the river to catch fish, and he made his own fishing rods.
The bamboo fishing rod gave her infinite fun, and some of the fish she caught were grilled and eaten locally, and some were brought back to be fried.
The best type of bamboo to make fishing rods is Nanzhu, spotted bamboo or water bamboo.
It is better to take about 4 meters, the diameter of the tail segment is about 5 cm, and the bamboo age is 3 to 5 years.
Ye Qing cut down the selected bamboo, carefully removed the branches and forks on the bamboo, and then asked Qian Duoduo to make a fire.
Grill each knot of the rod over low heat so that it loses some of its moisture and makes each stick straight.
Then at the front of the bamboo pole are the purchased fishing line, fish float, and fish hook.
This fish float is made of goose feather terriers, and it is also painted in various colors, Ye Qing used seven to make a seven-star float, which looks very beautiful.
The bait is made by stir-frying rapeseed cakes with coarse and fine bran flour and rapeseed oil.
This kind of bait is used as a nest to attract fish.
The bait hung on the hook is generally a small earthworm, which is fixed to the tip of the hook, and then a dough bait is hung on the lower part of the hook.
This method prevents the bait from being wasted and the fish cannot be caught, and it has a fatal attraction to fish under one catty.
However, digging earthworms and earthworms, Ye Qing handed over to Qian Duoduo and Huo Zimeng to do.
The older she grows, the more she doesn't dare to touch it with her hands.
The water is so clear that standing on the rocks beside the stream, you can see schools of finger-sized fish swimming around.
This is a small fish with more spines and less flesh, Jianzhou people call it meat fish, this kind of fish is very small, each is about the length of a person's finger.
The meat is very tender, fine and fragrant, and it is best to clean it up, wrap it in flour and fry it, and there is almost a feeling that you can't eat the bones.
There is also a kind of cauliflower fish, also called the little tiger fish, it is often found in the south of the Yangtze River, it lives by eating small fish, the temperament is fierce, it is very good to fish, it can only be fished in June every year, and the stew soup is very delicious.
Qian Junbao had never been to the stream to catch fish, and for a moment he thought it was very interesting, so he stood on top of a rock, looked down and stared intently into the water.
