Chapter 165: Longlining
Ye Mu herself has opened one, which is no longer a novelty, so she only looks there with a smile.
Sister-in-law Ye, sister-in-law Ye and Lin Xiuqing were surprised, and the three of them gathered around and came directly to them.
I saw a milky white bead on the edge of a whole plump oyster meat, and Ye Yaodong didn't touch it, so he let them take a look first.
He himself was very happy, but he didn't expect to open one after more than 20 openings, and this one is about 8mm in diameter.
"There really is!"
"Isn't this worth a lot?"
Ye Yaodong took out the pearl and handed it to Lin Xiuqing and said, "Not necessarily, depending on the color and roundness, I can't see it, but it must be better than the water pearls on the market, let's take it first!"
Most of the saltwater pearls are perfectly round in shape, which are bred in the sea, and the feel will be more delicate, and it will be more cool and moisturizing.
Generally, the shape of the water pearl is irregular, flat, oval, concave and convex all kinds of all, there will be an astringent feeling to the touch, the quality of the water pearl can be used to grind pearl powder, and the sea pearl is not good, the sea pearl is nuclear.
Seawater pearls also contain more organic matter, trace elements, and minerals, and seawater pearls are more suitable for the human body through natural generation mechanisms, which can absorb toxins in the human body.
The two sisters-in-law were envious, and looked at the pearl in Lin Xiuqing's hand greedily.
"If you can't sell it, how can you wear it yourself? It's nice."
"When you wait for fifteen, do you still want to go to the isolated island to search for the sea? Shall we go with you?" After Ye Er's sister-in-law finished speaking, she looked at him with a look of hope on her face.
Sister-in-law Ye also wants to go.
Ye Mu was also very moved, "Or Dongzi, let us know next time you go, we will go with you, whether it is worth it or not, it is good to come back with a little more things."
Headache!
Even if you go on an adventure with your friends, take the women of the family to it, then you can only find a small island with a beach***, and you have to be very careful when climbing the reef.
Troublesome!
A few of them adults and men fell and fell, and it was nothing to fall into the sea, and now they asked him to take a group of women, and he had a headache.
"Mother, you said before, the reef is very slippery, and the sea is windy, and if you are not careful, it is easy to be hit into the sea by the waves, even if the tide is low, it cannot guarantee safety. Don't look at the lot of goods I bring back and out, but it's also quite risky, you can think for yourself, you can go if you want."
If he wanted to go, he could only try to find a small island on higher ground.
The small islands around are just those, and the ones that are closer are almost there, and the others have to be found, step on the point, it's really not good, just take them to the islands they went to before, the islands they went to at the beginning were quite safe, and the goods must be in stock.
The wharf and reef in their village were frequented by people at both ends for three days, but they could still find something when they returned.
"Let's take a look, let's be careful." Mother Ye didn't want to take the risk, but she couldn't stand Ye Huimei returning with a full load this time, and she also opened a pearl with her own hands.
The first few times Dongzi brought back the goods, they were all worthless shells, and she didn't ask how much they sold for some money, how could there be such a direct impact this time. ….
"Okay then, I'll tell you when I go."
You can't bring your friends or your family.
Sister-in-law Ye and Sister-in-law Ye were also happy.
Lin Xiuqing touched her stomach with some regret, in her current situation, if she wanted to go, he probably wouldn't take her there.
"Would you like to open it for you?" Otherwise, you don't know when you're going to open such a bag?" Second sister-in-law Ye grinds her fists and wants to get started.
Lin Xiuqing smiled and said, "Wait a while, let's go have breakfast first, it's late today, let's continue to open after eating?"
"Okay, then let's sort out the house first."
Ye Mu stayed for a while, and waited until she was almost done before leaving.
The couple talked excitedly while eating.
"I didn't expect that just a moment ago, you actually drove another one, and this is the first time I've seen it."
"Maybe I'll let you open one later."
Lin Xiuqing smiled, "How can there be such a simple thing? Say yes, and there will be."
"I can't say for sure, these oysters are estimated to have grown for many years."
Ye Yaodong said as he opened a freshly steamed oyster, dipped it in soy sauce and vinegar, and put it directly into his mouth.
Although it does not have the aroma of minced garlic, it is delicious enough.
Oysters are a man's gas station and a woman's beauty salon.
He ate three times in a row before stopping, and when he saw Lin Xiuqing pick up one to open, he took the opportunity to help her open it, but she refused.
"I'm going to open it myself, what if I have pearls?"
"Okay, that's for you."
There is no doubt that this is just her imagination, and there is only a lot of oyster meat when it comes out, and she actually just says it casually, and she doesn't expect to open it casually, and put a little sauce in her mouth.
"Get some scrambled eggs in the afternoon...... Huh?"
As soon as Lin Xiuqing took two bites, she felt a foreign object in her mouth, and when she rolled her tongue, she immediately sensed what it was, and spit it out directly in surprise.
Ye Yaodong was also pleasantly surprised, can this be?
"Ah, it was hidden in the flesh, and it almost gave me a bite."
Lin Xiuqing looked at the pearl in her palm happily, and couldn't help but rejoice, fortunately, she just touched her tongue, and then stopped it in time, otherwise if she bit out a trace like Second Sister-in-law Ye, it would be her turn to cry.
"Show me."
Ye Yaodong took the pearl in his hand and looked at it carefully, it was intact, without flaws, and the pearl was round and jade.
"Take out the one you just gave you and compare it."
"Looks like this one is going to be a little bigger?"
"It's a little ......."
The couple watched there excitedly, and they didn't care about the two children, and the two clever took advantage of their inattention, grabbed half an oil cake with one hand, and stopped eating, just gnawing on the oil cake.
When Lin Xiuqing finished happily putting away the pearls, he saw two hands full of oil and mouths full of gnawed tables and falling.
She scolded two more sentences in tears and laughter, but the two of them ran off the table directly.
When she got up in the morning, one person took one to gnaw, and she was worried that she wouldn't have to eat the porridge if she ate the whole one, so she only took one and cut it in half for them to eat, and the remaining two were cut in half to prepare for the rice.
I didn't expect to take it and run away at this time, two stinky boys, when they are free, they will be caught and beaten! ….
"Hey, just eat it. If you don't eat, you'll eat when you're hungry at noon, and you won't die of hunger, so you don't have to feed it, you can eat your own."
Lin Xiu gave him a clean look, "It's all you who tempted them, how can you grow taller without eating."
"The nutrition is all in the dishes, and it has nothing to do with the rice, right?"
"Who said that if you don't eat, you won't be full of food you eat."
"Then they will eat when they are hungry, you eat quickly, let's continue to open after eating, there are still a lot of pearls waiting for you."
The couple sped up their meals, and as soon as they finished eating, they couldn't wait to go straight to the oysters without even washing the dishes.
When the two sisters-in-law saw that they were starting to work, they couldn't wait to come over to help, and even the second brother Ye, who had just returned from working in the field, heard about it and joined the oyster team together.
Xiaoxiao and Ah Zheng didn't take long to run over excitedly and said that one of them opened five, the fat man opened three, plus the one on the island yesterday, the fat man also had four.
As soon as these words came out, this gave him great confidence, he already had four in his hands, how could he not be worse than them?
The oyster team grew again, and in the morning, in the midst of everyone's incessant exclamations, all the oysters were opened, and three large basins of oyster meat were opened.
Of course, the harvest is also quite rich, Lin Xiuqing deliberately took a small bowl of pearls halfway, and the pearls in it looked very gratifying.
"Hurry up and count how many?"
Everyone was gathered there, and they were very excited.
She excitedly picked up the small bowl and counted, "One, two, three... Eighty-nine ...... There are nine of them!"
"There were two more in the morning, and two more yesterday, 13!"
"Damn, so many? You get more than we do!" Ah Zheng looked envious.
Xiaoxiao was already envious and didn't know what to say, "Awesome!"
Sister-in-law Ye and the others also looked at them with envy.
Ye Yaodong smiled, ignored them, and only said to Lin Xiuqing: "Take it back to the house and put it away first, and I'll clean it up here."
"Hmm."
"Do you want to sell it for money? Dongzi?"
"Huh?" Ye Yaodong looked at Xiao Xiao in surprise, "Do you want to sell it for money?"
"I think so, if you don't sell it for money, why do you put it in your hands? Do you still wear it? Don't you think it's too wasteful? It's more practical to exchange money."
Ah Zheng also nodded, "yes, let's sell it for money?" Money is the most tangible thing."
Ye Yaodong thought for a while before saying, "Forget it, you can sell it, I'll talk about it when I'm tight."
Now there is no need to use a lot of money, this wild saltwater pearl is still relatively rare, and there will be only raised saltwater pearls on the market in the future.
Good things, he still wants to leave them to his wife, and if he sells them, they will be gone, how can a woman not like jewelry, and it makes more sense to open it himself.
Moreover, if this thing retains its value, the price will rise in a few years, and the good quality will only become more and more valuable.
"It's really not for sale, huh?"
"I don't have a lot of money on hand for the time being, or you can take it to the store and ask how much it's worth?" If you don't have much, let's let it go first, it's just been a few years since the change, and the economic conditions are limited, so it will definitely be better than it is now in a few years."
Xiao Xiao spread his hands, "Okay, then let's ask first, if it's cheap, it's cheap, and the value will come out." ….
"In the afternoon, we will go fishing in the ground cage, will you go?"
"Go, I just got a string of hooks from my father-in-law, and I'm going to put them in the afternoon."
"Silk? Longlining?" Ye Yaodong looked at Ah Zheng in surprise.
Longline fishing is called "retention" in the area around them, which refers to a special fishing line.
This is a traditional fishing technique, which is to release a trunk line from a boat into the sea, with a certain number of branches tied to the trunk line at a certain distance, and a hook with bait tied at the end of each branch; The head and tail of each basket are tied with sunken stones and pontoons, which are used to control the main and branch lines in the water at a specific depth, so as to trap adult fish in a specific water layer.
Longline fishing has a degree, and generally the hook it uses is relatively large, and can only catch large fish, and small fish will not eat the hook even if they can eat the bait.
This fishing method is a bit old, but in this era, there are quite a lot, and it is a traditional fishing method.
It's just that their village is basically based on ground cage nets, Korean nets, and trawl nets, and this longline fishing Ye Yaodong has only seen it, but he is not familiar with it.
Ah Zheng nodded, "Yes, longline, let it go to the sea and give it a try."
"Then you have to prepare in advance, I heard that this is quite troublesome, and the steps such as tying hooks, arranging fishing lines, and hanging bait need to be completed before going to sea."
"My wife is doing it at home, and when she finishes eating, she will probably be able to go to sea when the tide arrives."
"Okay, let's go together, I'll take a look at this longline fishing and watch it."
Xiaoxiao also interjected, "I heard that this kind of fishing method only catches big fish, not small fish."
"That's right, no one in our village uses this fishing method, try it first, my husband said it's very good."
"My wife is married!"
"Hahaha, a son-in-law is half a son, doesn't your father-in-law also send fruit over two times in three days?"
"Come and go."
