Chapter 994: Fishing in Troubled Waters (7000 Words)
"What are these ones? It's as round as a black pearl......"
"Could it be the roe of dace? It turns out that this canned fish is not fish, but fish roe?
"Isn't that selling dog meat on the head of a sheep?"
"Something to deceive, it turns out that the canned fish is not filled with fish ......"
Everyone talked a few words and ridiculed.
After Ye Yaodong was surprised, he said in his heart: Isn't this the legendary caviar?
He smelled it again, it was a salty smell, although he hadn't eaten it, but he had seen it, and the black and slippery ones were caviar.
Although everything was in front of him, he couldn't believe it, and he didn't let anyone take the spoon, he directly stretched out his paw and scooped a small handful and put it in his mouth, ready to try the taste.
The legendary caviar is listed as a must-eat food before death.
It is said that it has a slightly salty taste, and after chewing, it has a bursting texture, giving people a wonderful feeling that has never been seen before.
Try it to see if it's as delicious as the legend says, and you'll probably know if this is it.
As soon as the round beads entered his mouth, the grains rolled on the tip of his tongue, and he used the tip of his tongue to break the black pearls on the top of his mouth, and the salty and umami taste instantly filled his mouth, a taste of the ocean, but the aftertaste was somewhat fresh and sweet.
Ye Yaodong chewed it a few times, and it felt that it was quite crisp, round and delicious, much more delicious than the roe of the fish he had eaten some time ago.
But it's not as exaggerated as the legend says, maybe he's a layman, and he doesn't deserve the taste of money.
Father Ye saw that he didn't say anything, so he directly grabbed it in his mouth with his hand, and immediately spoke out, "Dongzi, why are you eating indiscriminately, I don't know what it is, you just eat it directly?" ”
"It's delicious, this ship full of goods, can't you transport a bunch of garbage, right? It can be made into canned food, it must not be bad, no matter what canned food we have here, it is very expensive, since this caviar can be made into canned food, it must not be wrong. ”
"Really delicious?"
"Really? This black is like rat droppings, can it be delicious? ”
He shoved the can in front of them, "You guys try?" ”
Father Ye also reached out and fished out a handful of the suspicious.
"Lighten it up, don't crush it."
The three of them took turns grabbing a handful and sniffing it first.
"It doesn't feel like it tastes good, it's a little salty."
"This one is pickled, but it's not salty."
Father Ye put the letter suspiciously in his mouth, chewed it twice, and then said, "The taste is okay." ”
The boatman also said: "This black slippery can also be eaten, what kind of fish roe is this, it is strange." ”
Ye Yaodong couldn't help twitching the corners of his mouth, chewing peonies.
Just like him.
These dark slimy eggs don't look ostentatious, but their price can be as high as 50,000 yuan a catty, and they are also fish roe, which only sturgeon can sell for such a high price.
The high price of caviar does not belong to the status of caviar, and among all caviar products, the only one that can be called caviar is sturgeon caviar.
Others, such as salmon roe, flying fish roe, and mentaiko, are just substitutes for sturgeon, and in fact, they are more popular abroad.
Caviar was first born in Russia, but it was not popular with the locals until the 16th century, after the caviar was exported to France, the then king Louis XIV tasted it, and he liked it very much, and later many French nobles ate caviar.
Therefore, caviar has been labeled as an "aristocracy" in France, and its value has soared instantly, not because of how delicious it is, but more importantly, because it can show its noble status.
It's like spending millions to buy a watch, not because of the technology it uses, but because of a person's prominent status and status.
In addition, only the caviar of sturgeon will be called caviar, and sturgeon produces fish roe for a long time, it takes 8~20 years, which is particularly costly, material, human and financial, so caviar is very expensive, and non-rich people cannot afford to eat it.
It's just that how can there be caviar in this canned dace?
Moreover, the whole ship is full of chests, could it be this caviar?
Caviar is known as black gold, the higher its grade, the clearer the fullness, he can't distinguish it, but he feels that the taste is okay, and he doesn't know if these are sturgeon roe.
You must know that the Chinese sturgeon is now listed as a protected animal.
He seemed to smell something different, picked up the canned fish and took a closer look at the outer packaging, but found that there was no brand logo on the outer packaging.
When I first picked it up and looked at it, I just looked at the name of the dace on it, but I didn't pay attention to the brand, I looked around, and I didn't see the manufacturer on it.
It's over, it's greasy!
"Since you can eat it, then keep it as you like, and you don't have to throw it back into the sea, so you don't have to waste it." Father Ye said compassionately.
His father's words pulled him back into reality, and he smiled awkwardly, not daring to tell his father the value of this thing, otherwise his father would drop his jaw in shock, and he would have to wonder how he knew, whether he was talking nonsense.
"No, there is a dace logo engraved on the outside, but it is fish roe inside, how do you look at it, it's not like this to sell dog meat on a sheep's head, caviar is caviar, and the photo of the roe should be posted on the outside."
"That's it! Isn't this a mess? ”
"Walk, smuggle... Boat! Willing... Decide! ”
The other two echoed the boatman's words and nodded.
Ever since he saw that the can was open to fish roe, he was also suspicious of the boat.
With the logo of canned dace, but it contains caviar, the purpose is not pure, probably it is really smuggling, right? And it's also smuggled caviar, and canned dace is used as a shield.
Is this ship not going to dock, but going to the high seas? That's why you're in such a hurry?
"Let's open another one and see if it's still roe."
After finishing speaking, he took the knife and ran to the aisle just now to get a box, held it in the palm of his hand, and cut the knife directly.
It was still black when it came out, and it didn't make any difference when it looked like it, so he put it on the tip of his nose and sniffed it.
"Hey, tempeh! This can is a real tempeh dace! ”
"Show me, show me......" Father Ye heard it behind him, and he was also busy.
Ye Yaodong held a knife in one hand and canned dace with tempeh in the other, turned his head and wanted to hand the knife he was holding to his father.
As a result, he instantly reacted to the wrong hand, and handed him the canned dace in his other hand.
But this time he was also so frightened that his father hurriedly took a step back, stepped on the feet of the person behind him, and scolded angrily.
"You bastard, what are you doing with a knife? Want to kill Lao Tzu? ”
Ye Yaodong sneered, "Didn't you react for a while and raised the wrong hand?" How dare I, I can't kill Lao Tzu if I kill people. ”
Father Ye was so angry that he blew his beard and glared, "You still kill people and kill people, what secrets do you have that I don't know?" It almost didn't scare me to death. ”
Hehe, although there are many secrets that others don't know, but his father knows them, but there are really secrets that he doesn't know.
"Hehe, na, this time it's not wrong, it's this one, you taste it, it's very fragrant, tempeh flavor."
Father Ye took it angrily, and glanced at him again.
"Isn't this the same as your daughter-in-law's pickled tempeh? Fish underneath? ”
"So this box is the real tempeh dace?"
"Gangsters together... Loaded? ”
"Maybe it's mixed up and pretended, giving this caviar a cover."
Ye Yaodong didn't look carefully at the logo on the second can of opened tempeh dace just now because of his father's voice.
He took out another box from the box, and found that the box had the brand logo on it, and it was turned over and had the manufacturer's address.
There are two subtly different OEM cards in one box, which is clearly problematic.
"Dad, you show me another first, the knife will be given to you."
Father Ye glanced at the knife in his hand with small eyes, and then glanced at him again, before he changed the can at hand with him, and then immediately exited the aisle, letting the others give way, and prepared to put the knife away first.
And Ye Yaodong also walked out with a box of cans in one hand, and shouted to the other two, "You help me carry that box to the deck, anyway, no one saw us salvage it, it's just a box, and you can't see it from a distance." ”
"Okay."
He put the two cans in his hand under the light and took a photo, and found that the paper logo on them was the same, different from the caviar that came out of the first one.
So both of these are canned dace, and the caviar that was prescribed to him in the first jar was special and alternative.
He put the three boxes side by side, and wanted to verify them, so he asked his father to bring the knife over and chop the third can.
Sure enough, it's canned dace again.
"Dongzi, why don't you just just put caviar on caviar, canned dace on canned dace, why do you mix this caviar in canned fish? Any explanation? Is there anything special about this caviar? ”
"Yes, yes, I just wanted to ask, why don't you just label a fish roe, but also mix it together like this, and deliberately put a dace logo."
"There are ghosts, there are ghosts!"
"Hell, you're big, ghost, talk about this at night." Father Ye glared at him unhappily.
"This caviar is very expensive, it is more expensive than you can imagine, and the real caviar has to be made of sturgeon, and sturgeon is now a national protected animal, and it is illegal to catch sturgeon."
Father Ye was surprised, "It's still illegal to catch a fish?" Why? Sick, right? Aren't fish just for people to catch? Still breaking the law? Really? ”
"Of course it's true, otherwise why are you still hiding it like this? It is the caviar of this sturgeon, which can be sold at a sky-high price abroad, and there must be brave men under the heavy reward, and it is certainly worth the risk for some people to have enough benefits. ”
"And how much can this box sell for?"
"Uh......"
This is a bit difficult for him, he doesn't know the price of the 80s.
"A pound costs a few thousand dollars."
He casually rambled nonsense, only to see everyone's eyes widen.
"Nonsense, how is it possible, thousands of dollars? I don't want a few cents, give me food, and I have to think about whether to eat or not. ”
"You're talking nonsense, aren't you? How is it possible, a few thousand yuan can buy a boat, just this pound of things can be worth a boat, so are foreigners too rich or blind? ”
"Gold is not as expensive as this thing, this one is like rat."
"It's ......"
Ye Yaodong snorted a few times in his heart, maybe not only to one boat, but also to two boats.
"If you don't believe it, and I don't want you to believe it, you just let me talk nonsense, anyway, this thing must be expensive, if it's not expensive, it won't be hidden like this."
Father Ye also felt that he was tired, otherwise why would he fish in troubled waters like this, but it just made him believe that this kind of fish roe cost thousands of yuan per catty, and it was even more difficult for him to imagine, it was simply a fantasy for him.
Gold is not as expensive as this.
"These people must be afraid of being caught and going to jail, so they hide it like this, and it is definitely not as expensive as you say."
"It's okay if you want to think like this, anyway, it's definitely a crime to break the law, and it's definitely expensive, otherwise why risk going to jail......"
"That's ...... too," Father Ye was a little skeptical.
"Dongdong Dongge ......"
"If there's a fart, let it go!"
He didn't have the patience to listen to him at this time, that is, he spoke Laozi, so he patiently explained.
Looking at the box that was carried out, he was already on top of it, ready to take out all the cans inside, and see what the ratio of the two cans was.
"Yes, yes, yes... Box! ”
"Nonsense, of course I know there's a box, isn't this just ......"
"No, no, no, no, it's... Maritime! ”
Ye Yaodong immediately turned his head to look at the sea, and there was really another one floating over.
He looked at the two fishing boats stacked with arhats uneasily, and found that after a short while, the cargo boat seemed to be tilted a little again, and he didn't know whether it was hit by the waves or pressed by the fresh harvesting boat, probably both.
If you continue to press it any further, the arc of the tilt of the two boats will be even greater, and the idea of sinking one of the fresh boats and keeping one of them is probably impossible.
According to the tilt arc of the cargo ship, it will only tilt with the harvesting ship, and over time, the tilt angle will only increase until the piece is dumped into the sea.
"You go and get it up, I'll take a look at the contents of this box first, and divide it up."
He hadn't put two different cans in his hand at the same time, but now he took out all the cans in the box, but put two different cans in his hand and felt it, and the weight was obviously different.
By the time the second box was salvaged, he had already sorted all the cans in the first box.
There are 45 canned dace in the small box, while there are only 5 canned caviar.
This boat probably exported canned dace at the same time, and also exported caviar in troubled waters, or smuggling.
"Dongzi, this box has also been fished up, can you open it?"
"Open!"
When the other people opened the can, they also sniffed out a trace of something strange after finding two different things, and they all knew that there must be something greasy in it.
Father Ye quickly opened the second box with his hands and feet, and then took out all the straw stuffed inside, and the father and son took out all the cans inside for comparison.
Like the first box, there are 45 canned dace and 5 canned caviar.
"Both boxes are exactly the same."
"The proportions are the same."
"What should I do?"
Ye Yaodong was also at a loss, "I don't know, I haven't thought about it yet." ”
"Put it away first?"
"Put away the second box that was salvaged and hide it under my boat, and then put the first box back and put it in the corner of the cabin, and put the three boxes of cans first."
"Okay."
Father Ye waited for all these things to be done, and then looked at Ye Yaodong again, "If the rescue ship comes later, should we report it secretly?" ”
He was also hesitating there, but he was worried that the small report would be discovered.
"We'll see how it goes."
If he could have a private conversation while he was unprepared, he wouldn't mind poking it out.
I wonder if this is caviar for sturgeon? There are only Chinese sturgeons in China, which are now protected animals, and it is impossible to commit crimes against the wind without a background.
He thinks that many things are better than less, right?
Anyway, it has nothing to do with him, he also discovered it by accident, and it is okay to use two boxes as hush money.
reported the people, and when they were caught, he didn't have any reward, he just didn't know anything, and they had to thank him for coming over to help and wrap him in a red envelope.
"What about these three boxes? Eat? ”
He hesitated, "Eat it, don't you have two boxes anyway?" ”
"You can't eat it, this thing looks black and doesn't taste good, and didn't you say that caviar costs thousands of dollars a pound? How can you afford to eat this? ”
"Don't you don't believe it? If you don't want to eat it, then let it go for me to eat, you can eat that canned fish, and keep the leftovers. ”
Father Ye glared at him, "Something worth thousands of yuan, you just eat it like this?" ”
"I just said that I didn't want to sell it to you for a few cents, and now I'm talking about thousands of dollars."
Ye Yaodong said angrily and then said: "It's all open, of course you have to eat it, otherwise it will be bad?" You are afraid that Lei Gong will not dare to eat, then of course give me food, I am not afraid of Lei Gong. ”
The boatman smiled and interrupted the father and son to raise the bar, "Hehe, let's put the thing aside first, let's try that can of fish." ”
"Then try this canned fish first, this is also expensive, isn't it? Look at how good this canned food you just said, taste it and see, that fish roe tastes so-so, and it is so expensive, so mysterious, this dace has tempeh in it, it should look a little better..."
Father Ye said and put the jar of caviar in the corner, although he didn't believe it, he was really reluctant to move.
Then use the rough palm to break the mouth of the can of dace that has just been cut with a knife, and directly break it bigger.
"It's all tempeh, and it's also a lie, saying that it's tempeh dace, but it turns out that there are more tempeh than fish."
"How else can you make money? Anyway, there is fish underneath, not selling dog meat on the head of a sheep. ”
Father Ye went to get a pair of chopsticks and fiddled with the canned, "This kind of small miscellaneous fish can be made into canned food, and the small ones are not as long as my palm." ”
"It's quite good, and there is oil and water in it."
"That's right."
Father Ye said as he stirred the tempeh into the bowl, and even poured a little oil into the bowl and stirred.
"Let me taste it too, I haven't eaten canned food in my life, I didn't eat canned fruit first, but I can taste what canned fish is first."
"Eat, eat, you're welcome, it's all picked up in the sea anyway, you all try it......"
Father Ye placed the canned food on the small table and asked them to take it for themselves.
Ye Yaodong also took a pair of chopsticks and sandwiched a piece of fish, this fish is hard, it has been fried, it tastes very fragrant, different from ordinary fish and meat is very chewy.
Father Ye also commented on it, saying that it was hard and chewy, but it tasted quite fragrant, which was different from the tenderness of ordinary fish.
"Even the bones are fried, hard, and you can chew and eat them directly? It's all oil and water, no wonder you say this will be expensive and popular. ”
"It's delicious, I'll tell you that this canned fish will be delicious, you don't believe it, marine fish has the taste of sea fish, freshwater fish also has the flavor of freshwater fish, not necessarily freshwater fish is not delicious, if it is done well, it will be delicious, and marine fish is not delicious."
"This tempeh bibimbap is also quite fragrant......"
Father Ye didn't feel that the rice was cold at all, but instead dried two large bowls, and his mouth was smooth and shiny.
"Let's take those two boxes back, keep them for ourselves, and let your mother and them taste it."
"I think that fish roe is not as delicious as this canned fish, this is fragrant and chewy, and the fish roe tastes smooth and greasy, a little fishy."
It really doesn't meet the appetite of the Chinese baby, although he thinks that the caviar has a different flavor, but the canned dace tastes more in line with his taste.
"If you haven't finished eating it, cover it back, this thing is very expensive, continue to eat it tomorrow, don't use it to eat and play, eat a little less, save it."
Father Ye put down the dishes and chopsticks, reluctantly covered the can back, and the oil and water on his fingers were still in his mouth.
"Slap in the face, Dad, I still disliked it before, but now I am reluctant to eat it."
He said stiffly: "The front is the front, who knows that this fish has been fried, and there are fried things in oil, how can there be anything that is not delicious?" The is fragrant when it is fried, not to mention that you have always said that this thing is expensive? How can you eat and play like this, it's a waste. ”
"It's like you've eaten fried."
"What nonsense?" Father Ye glanced at him, put the can in the corner of the table, and stacked it with caviar and put it away.
The boatman also put the chopsticks in his mouth and licked them before putting them down, "Why didn't I know that there was such a thing as canned fish, but it really had to be eaten by rich people, and there was so much oil and water in it, we had never heard of it in the countryside." ”
"This is from Guangdong Province, and it is all used for export, and it seems that it is also used to supply troops during the war. It's so far away from us, it's normal to not know, even if there is, who is willing to buy it and eat it? ”
"I can't afford to eat, I can't afford to eat, let's work, there are still some goods here that haven't been picked up, hurry up and clean them up, maybe I can go sleep for a while......"
Father Ye touched his pocket, only to find that the watch was placed on the cockpit console, and he couldn't read the time.
"What time is it?"
"It's been about 8 o'clock, and it's only been about an hour."
"Has it only been an hour? Some of them waited, and they didn't know when the rescue team would come. ”
"Wait, I'll have to wait here anyway."
"It just so happens that their boat accident is dealt with tonight, and we can go back tomorrow after catching a few nets."
I hope so.
Father Ye watched the boatman and Chen Shi squat down again to sort the remaining goods on the deck, and came to Ye Yaodong's side.
"You say, when the rescue team comes, will they find out the problem with the cargo ship?"
"I don't know, who knows if people come to the rescue, will they check it by the way."
"Probably will, right? The boxes on the ship are scattered all over the place, so you should wonder what is inside, right? ”
"Probably so."
You ask me, who do I ask? What didn't happen, ask him, he doesn't know.
"Then let's watch, maybe people are late, and it's not good to say if the ship sinks directly......"
Ye Yaodong slapped it and said: "Yes, in case it sinks, we still have to help catch people, you quickly put away the three leftover cans on the table and hide them, in case you get people on the boat, it's not good to see them." ”
"Yes, yes, then I'll hide it, and by the way, I'll wash the dishes and chopsticks first."
Father Ye immediately went to work.
All of them are lazy people who don't like to wash dishes, and they won't wash the dishes and chopsticks until the next cooking time.
In the first two days, I was diligent in eating and washing, and when I got to the back, I was not so particular about the boat, and Ye Yaodong was not good at instructing people, anyway, there was no delay in serious work.
After Ye Yaodong sent his father away, he was also thinking about caviar there.
The two boxes hidden, probably got it back and had to keep it for himself, so expensive things went directly to the mouth, he was really a little distressed, the key was that it didn't meet his appetite.
If you don't get caught and take him away, you won't have a place to cry.
Not to mention, this thing really has to be eaten by the master, and now I really have to experience it.
The cargo on the deck was cleaned up in three or two clicks, and those who were carried in were carried in, and those who were poured back into the sea were poured back into the sea, and after the two were cleaned, they also went back to bed.
Ye Yaodong also asked his father to go to sleep, I don't know when the rescue boat will come, there is no need for so many people to wait there, he is very energetic anyway, he just watches alone.
It's just that as time passed, three hours had passed, and they hadn't waited, and the people on the fishing boat in front were probably more anxious, and the fishing boat was tilting even more.
In addition, after the tide receded, it began to rise again, and the waves seemed to be tilting even more.
If the rescue ship arrives in time, it can take advantage of the high tide to tie a rope to the harvesting boat, increase the horsepower, and let it retreat from the cargo ship.
And if the cargo ship is tilted because of the reef, it may also be because the tide is rising, and the tilt is not so strong, and it may be able to be successfully rescued.
Just when he was idle and bored, and his mouth almost hurt when he ate Pipi shrimp, a light suddenly appeared on the sea, and he instantly felt refreshed.
Two boats not far away were also there cheering.
"The rescue ship is coming?"
The boat not far away was from far and near, he kept shining at each other with a flashlight, and he also saw the Chinese flag erected on the ship, and the hull was painted with the words "Maritime Safety Bureau", and he was immediately relieved.
It's good to come.
In the afternoon, I went to plant two teeth, the screws were hit into the gums, and I came back in the evening with a large swollen patch, and I couldn't eat the difficult pain-bearing voice code
