Chapter 16: The Saury (Collect)

"I'll see."

Shui Wang put his palm on his forehead to block the glare and looked at the boat behind him.

"! It's like a saliva boat. I see them following, I'm afraid they are also trying to rub Brother Hua's luck. After all, in the past three days, Brother Hua's luck is obvious to all. ”

Shui Wang quickly guessed the reason.

For example, today, they caught 3,000 catties of high-grade silver pomfret and sold it for 180,000 yuan, who in the village is not envious? are all talking about it, saying that Zhang Yaohua is lucky!

"Drive slower, let me chase them away."

Zhang Yaohua shook his head: "There's no need, people will still say that we are overbearing, and this sea is not our family's territory." ”

"Cheap them." Shui Wang said indignantly.

Zhang Yaohua asked: "Do you sell those equipment in the sea?" ”

"Ahh Brother, do you want to buy a wetsuit or something? There are in the town, and I went to the town with you two days ago to sell big eels, and I saw it. Zhang Yaowei said.

"That's a bit expensive." Shui Wang also said.

A full set of diving equipment, including masks, snorkels, air bags, oxygen cylinders, wetsuits, diving gloves, shoe covers, diving watches and regulators, etc.

"Tomorrow you go get two or three sets and come back." Zhang Yaohua commanded.

"Okay, I'll go!" Shuiwang worked hard and took the initiative to take over the work.

He knows very well that if he wants to mix with Brother Hua, he has to do more things. Otherwise, why should people take you flying?

After a while, Zhang Yaohua was a little puzzled, why didn't the fish move? It doesn't make sense to just stay where you are, right?

Just when he was puzzled, suddenly his second brother said: "Brother, not far in front is a place where people breed, do you want to go around?" ”

Yes?

Zhang Yaohua was dumbfounded.

He understood immediately.

It's a big oolong.

The school of fish was farmed, so it's no wonder that the fish didn't swim as much as the silver pomfret did in the morning.

"Ahem! Then go in a different direction! Go over there, don't go close to other people's farms, so as not to cause misunderstandings. Zhang Yaohua said.

He hurried to find other schools of fish again.

Shui Wang expressed his opinion: "I think next time I can bring the ground cage out and find a sea area to put it down." ”

"Yes, that's a good idea."

On the fishing boat behind, four or five young people observed Zhang Yaohua and they turned around.

"Are you still with me?"

"How do I feel like they're messing around?"

"It's been almost an hour, and I'm afraid there won't be enough oil, and I don't know how far they have to go."

They don't have too much fuel for the ship, and if they run too far, they don't have enough fuel on the return trip, and it will be a big problem.

"Otherwise, forget it! I don't believe it, they only came across a school of silver pomfret in the morning, and they had that kind of good luck in the afternoon. Huang Mao said.

A few of them are street slickers in the village, the kind who have nothing to do and are idle all day long.

Usually Shui Wang has some intersection with them, but the relationship is not very iron, and he is not the core member of their group.

"Okay! I've got two rows of cages nearby, let's go collect them! See how much it can be sold, and go to the town streets tonight for supper and singing. Unfortunately, there are no foot washing and massage shops in our town. ”

"There's a hair salon that I ...... last time I went"

"Holy! Can you also eat the old bacon? Hungry don't choose food! That old guy is older than your mother, right? ”

"You know a fart, that's called a, and auntie is more flavorful."

……

"They don't follow." Zhang Yaowei noticed the situation behind.

"I guess I'm impatient, I know them." Shui Wang smiled.

The fishing boat traveled for dozens of minutes before Zhang Yaohua "gave the order".

"Cast a net here."

Shui Wang had been waiting for him for a long time, and his movements were fast and skillful. It seems that he has done this kind of work a lot.

Working on a fishing boat, casting and collecting nets is the hardest part. Even though many fishing boats have towing winches and net lifters to assist in collecting nets, it is still dirty and tiring work on fishing boats.

"There are goods, Qingzhan fish!"

Ten or twenty minutes later, Shui Wang and Zhang Yaowei closed the net.

I was a little disappointed, because it was basically herring fish.

This is one of the most common marine fish, widely distributed, fast growing, high yield, and fishy smell, no one likes to eat, so the price is not high, three or five yuan a pound is common.

To put it mildly, tilapia is more expensive than it.

Herring is usually canned or refined with cod liver oil.

Cod liver oil is no stranger to the post-70s and 80s, it is simply a childhood memory.

At that time, adults said that cod liver oil was a high-grade nutritional product.

In the early days of the founding of the People's Republic of China, the modern pharmaceutical industry almost started from scratch, and in that era of lack of medical treatment, malnutrition and diseases were high, and the level of national nutrition and health needed to be improved urgently.

For example, rickets, also known as vitamin D deficiency rickets, is a childhood disease characterized by bone lesions with a very high incidence at that time, and pediatric rickets is also listed as the first of the four pediatric diseases in China.

At that time, it has long been a consensus in the international medical community that the vitamin D rich in cod liver oil can effectively prevent and treat rickets.

Therefore, before the medical treatment was not developed, cod liver oil became a must-have thing for many families. Especially children, pour him two spoons when he has nothing to do.

"Huh! There are four saury, several pounds in weight, and I made money. ”

The moment the fishing net was opened, Zhang Yaowei saw the three saury mixed in it.

"You can't look at it! The four tails are definitely more than ten pounds. Shui Wang corrected.

He was also happy.

This fish has a very beautiful raised anterior dorsal part with nine orange oblique bands, each of which is orange, and a blue longitudinal band parallel to the base of the dorsal fin.

The saury is easily recognizable, and "parrot beak, zebra body, sika deer tail" is the description of it.

It only lives in places with clear water and is often active on rocks and reefs, so it is extremely difficult to catch, so it is very rare.

The three-knife fish is sweet and tender, the fish flavor is rich, like the clam meat is fresh and sweet, it is known as the king of fish on Hong Kong Island, it is the highest-priced fish, one or two will cost 60 yuan.

Pay attention to the unit, it is one tael, not one catty.

In other words, this kind of fish costs 600 yuan per catty. And the four in front of me must add up to more than ten catties, which is more than 6,000 yuan.

In addition, sometimes you may not be able to eat this kind of fish even if you have money, you have to try your luck, and the store is not sure when it will be available.

"Possibly, continue to go to the net." Zhang Yaowei and Shui Wang were in a hurry.

Only Zhang Yaohua is still calm.

They cast four nets in a row, and sure enough, there were three more saury in the follow-up, and one net was more than the other.

"Haha! The saliva is bright, and they will definitely regret dying. Shui Wang laughed, as if he had seen the saliva and their expressions of remorse.

The saury they caught this time was more than 80 catties if not 100 catties.

"Go on." Zhang Yaohua said.

"Ahh It's full. ”

"Throw away some of the Qingzhan fish, let those who are not dead go!"

Zhang Yaowei and Shui Wang did not hesitate, Qingzhan fish is not valuable, and if you lose it, you will lose it, it is not rare.

It's rare to encounter a saury, how can you let it go easily?
