After dawn.

Lao Zhuang cooked porridge for everyone, and everyone was given an egg, and the side dishes were only mustard and cooked dried fish.

"This mustard is delicious."

"Lao Zhuang, where did you buy it?"

"It's right there at the docks."

"How much is a pack, if it's not expensive, help me bring a few packs next time I go to the dock to buy groceries."

"It's not expensive, it's two cents per pack."

"That's okay, help me bring ten packs."

"I'll have five packs too."

Li Duoyu, who was squatting on the side of the mast for breakfast, knew what brand of mustard it was after eating this familiar taste.

He glanced at the people on the ship, and his mind was suddenly pulled to another plane.

In that world, Li Duoyu often eats this brand of mustard for breakfast.

Although he is a cook, his life is not exquisite at all, and the most eaten breakfast is this brand of mustard.

The soup with mustard and shredded pork should be the soup he has drunk the most times since he returned to China, even more than the kelp pork rib soup.

I remember that at that time, his son would occasionally come home alone to see him, and when he saw him eating mustard, he would preach with a black face.

said that it was not good to eat too much pickled food, and even confiscated the mustard he bought.

But every time his son goes back to work in Rongcheng, Li Duoyu will go to the grocery store at the dock to buy two more packs.

Without him, it's because it's convenient.

Li Duoyu ate the mustard again, chewed it carefully, and found that the taste was really the same, but if it was delicious, it might still be a little more delicious in later generations.

Maybe it's because there's more seasoning.

And this mustard is Xieqiao mustard, and its production place is Xieqiao Town, which seems to be in Hangzhou Bay, not far from the Zhoushan Islands.

After eating breakfast.

Li Duoyu looked at the sea, and a round of morning sun rose from the sea level, reflecting the sea surface and the morning glow red.

At the end of the line of sight, one or two fishing boats could be faintly seen.

Li Duoyu let out a long breath and stretched his waist in the direction of the rising sun.

And at this moment, the third uncle Li Zhengfa came over, and after breakfast, he had a cigarette in his mouth.

Li Zhengfa originally planned to hand a cigarette to Li Duoyu, but after thinking about it, forget it, if you hand him the cigarette, Duoyu will indeed accept it, but he usually rarely smokes it.

To be honest, he still admires Duoyu, in this endless sea, he can actually do it without smoking to relieve boredom.

When he was younger, he was also a non-smoker, but since he joined the fishing team, it is impossible not to smoke.

Even for old fishermen like them, there are three good things on board: a radio, cigarettes, and some comic strips with a little color.

"It's a nice morning and it should be good for fishing."

"Hmm."

"I shouldn't have slept much last night, can I continue fishing, do you want to rest?"

Li Duoyu smiled: "A macho man who can go in and out seven times a night, three hours of sleep is enough." ”

The third uncle said with disgust: "If it's so good, why don't you even have a second child, and your father is in a hurry." ”

Li Duoyu said: "Third uncle, are you still embarrassed to talk about me?" ”

Li Zhengfa's old face turned red, and he said a little sadly and helplessly:

"I'm different from you, I want it very much, but God doesn't want to give it, otherwise I won't let your aunt spoil the Jade Army."

"Ahem."

Li Duoyu hurriedly diverted the topic: "Third uncle, the weather is so good, why don't we have another Internet café." ”

"Yes."

Chen Liang, who had panda eyes, wanted to go back to the cabin to sleep after breakfast, but when he heard that he would come again, he couldn't help muttering:

"I only slept so much last night, and I didn't have any strength at all, so why do I have to work again, and I can't let people live."

Chen Youquan on the side just wanted to slap him, but Chen Liang subconsciously dodged it: "Your uncle, you know that you will definitely beat me again." ”

"It's okay, you still know how to hide!"

"Che, you think your son is such a fool."

Chen Youquan was stunned, and for a while, he didn't know whether he should smile bitterly or be happy.

After returning to your own fishing boat.

Li Duoyu started the fishing boat, then turned on the fish finder and searched for fish in the nearby waters.

Actually, this time you don't have to look for it, because he is still relatively familiar with the sea area where they are now.

Different from the previous fishing places, this sea area is very close to the Qiantang River, and the sea water looks very turbid, but under this water color, there may be a lot of large yellow croaker.

Li Duoyu took the walkie-talkie and said:

"Minrong 031"

"This sea area is full of mud and sand, with an average depth of 50 meters, and there are schools of fish at the bottom, so it is recommended to drag directly to the bottom."

"Min Rong 031 received."

Two tugboats, one large and one small, separated behind the fishing boat, and as the fishing boat moved forward, the nets were constantly pulled into the sea.

After more than an hour of pulling by the two trawlers, Li Duoyu could already see the outline of the offshore mountain range.

"Minrong 031, the terrain in front has changed, there are a small number of reefs, it is recommended to start the net directly."

"Min Rong 031 received."

As the third uncle's trawler slowed down, the uncle's trawler also received the signal, and the two boats slowly approached.

The trawl was slowly pulled out of the water, the net bag did not look very large, and the catch was very mixed.

Most of them are halffish, but there are also plenty of rays, as well as some small yellow croaker.

After seeing this web pack.

Li Shuguang grinned, and his heart suddenly balanced: "It seems that the one who gave you a dream last night may not be Mazu Niangniang." ”

Li Duoyu frowned, it shouldn't be, he had carefully observed the fish detector just now, and he did detect the activity of big fish.

But as the winch continued to pull up, all the net bags leaked out, and under the net bags, there were all big fish.

"Shocking."

Chen Liang, who saw the net bag, was so excited that he was incoherent: "There are all big yellow croakers under the net bag, all of them are so big." ”

Li Duoyu glanced at Li Shuguang and sighed: "When luck comes, you can't stop it." ”

Li Shuguang scratched his head in embarrassment.

He glanced at the big yellow croaker, but felt that something was wrong, these big yellow croakers were too big.

It stands to reason that it's morning, and the big yellow croaker should turn white, but these fish are quite yellow and quite big, not much like the big yellow croaker.

It won't be ......

Just when Li Shuguang wanted to confirm, the second uncle who was closest to the net bag shouted excitedly:

"Longevity, this net is not a big yellow croaker."

"It's all Huanggan."

When the crew heard this, they were all stunned, put down their work, and all of them surrounded the net.

Even the ship's boss, Li Zhengfa, walked out of the wheelhouse.

"The bottom of the fins is black, and it's really Huanggan."

"Mazu Niangniang bless."

"This net is worth a lot of money, and we finally got good goods."

Li Shuguang looked at Li Duoyu in disbelief, this guy's mouth, has it really been opened?

When Duoyu was commanding, he watched the whole process, and the difference between him and him was not very big, but the catch of the fish that came up, why was there such a big gap.

"Why!"

To be honest, when the second uncle shouted out Huang Gan, Li Duoyu was also stunned.

Huang Gan in the mouth of the second uncle.

In fact, it is a yellow-lipped fish, but the name is different.

This thing is a cousin of the big yellow croaker, and they all look the same, but it is very easy to distinguish, that is, there are obvious black spots at the bottom of the fins.

In fact, after Li Duoyu was reborn, he has been thinking about this thing in his heart, and he has also found a good spot to catch them.

The results all came to naught.

I didn't think I caught it here, and I looked for it thousands of times, and I didn't think about it, but I ran to live in my net by myself.

This is last night to eliminate harm for the people, did you accumulate yin virtue, and actually gave him such a net of yellow-lipped fish.

After the network package is unpacked.

The second uncle didn't even smoke anymore, pinned the pipe to his trousers, hugged a yellow-lipped fish, and couldn't help but kiss it.

"I haven't seen this good thing in years."

"It's a pity that it's a little smaller, we have also fished a net before, and the largest one is more than a meter long and weighs more than 100 pounds."

The eldest uncle said with disgust: "There are very few fish now, it would be good to catch them, and I still pick and choose." ”

Chen Liang couldn't help but ask, "Dad, is this yellow croaker more expensive than the big yellow croaker?" ”

Chen Youquan nodded: "Of course it's more expensive than the big yellow croaker, this thing is less than the big yellow croaker, and there are only a few outlets along the coast that have this kind of fish." ”

"How much does that pound sell?"

Chen Youquan frowned and thought for a while: "I don't know very well, the price of this fish is not very fixed, it mainly depends on the buyer's bid, but it has just been opened for two years, and the price has already been one, and now it should be more expensive." ”

"It's so expensive."

Chen Liang couldn't believe it, this fish was actually more expensive than pork, he pointed to the big yellow croaker in front of him: "Then isn't this one already more than thirty yuan." ”

Chen Youquan nodded: "It's about the same price, but if it really sells, it may be a little more expensive, at least forty or fifty." ”

"It's exaggerated." Chen Liang looked at Huang Gan on this deck, and was directly stunned in place, how much is this net worth.

Li Duoyu looked at Hangzhou Bay in the distance, and suddenly understood why he had caught yellow-lipped fish.

As a human being in two lifetimes, he still has some understanding of the habitat of the yellow-lipped fish, mainly in the near sea.

Generally, the small yellow-lipped croaker can only be wild on the shore, and it is often caught by people, and people who don't understand it think that they have caught a big yellow croaker.

When the yellow-lipped fish grows up, it will grow in the deep water area near the sea, and the largest can grow to more than one meter and weigh more than 200 catties.

It's a pity that this thing is even more stupid than the big yellow croaker, it is a home-type marine fish, which can only survive in the same habitat and does not know how to migrate.

In the 80s, it seems that it was almost extinct, and if I remember correctly, it seems that in a few years, the yellow-lipped fish will soon be listed as a second-class animal protection.

It is believed to be the first marine fish to be protected in the sea.

And this half-net of yellow-lipped fish, to say the least, is also two thousand catties, Li Duoyu suddenly made a difficulty, whether to sell all of them directly, or take out the swim bladder.

The most valuable thing about this fish is the swim bladder, and after the yellow-lipped fish swim bladder is dried, it is called the small whiskered eel gelatin.

It can be said that the top fish maw, some individuals with relatively large money maw, are auctioned at a seven-figure sky-high price at every turn.

If these yellow-lipped fish were sold directly to the fishmongers at the dock, Li Duoyu would feel that he would suffer a lot.

Li Duoyu weighed it, what is the future, Li Duoyu really can't guarantee it, but the general direction is still there, that is, this kind of fish is really getting less and less.

When the time comes, the top-quality fish maw made from its swim bladder will only become more and more expensive.

It's a wealth management product.

And this thing has a very long shelf life, so I should use it as a way back for myself.

Speaking of which, there are already a lot of fish gelatin in the large glass jar of his house.

"Third uncle, can you sell me the swim bladder of this net of yellow sweet fish."

The third uncle, Li Zhengfa, was stunned and said: "This net fish was originally caught by you, if you want it, just take it directly, and buy what to buy." ”

Uncle Li Niantian also said: "Zhengfa is right, without you, we wouldn't be able to catch Huang Gan at all." ”

Li Duoyu smiled.

He knew very well that what the third uncle and uncle said should be kind words, and if he really accepted it, then he would not be a man.

Li Duoyu glanced at the other crew members, their expressions visibly changing subtly.

Although the crew members are all paid, there is an unwritten rule, that is, when the boss of the ship makes a lot of money, he will pay dividends to the crew appropriately.

As for the yellow-lipped fish, once there is no swim bladder, the price will be much less.

Li Duoyu insisted: "That's not good, this fish is caught by everyone together, so let's do it, I will collect the swim bladder at one-third of the market price of this fish, what do you think?" ”

Chen Liang was stunned again: "The swim bladder of this fish is so expensive." ”

Chen Youquan nodded: "Of course it's expensive, the most valuable thing about this fish is the swim bladder, and it's very good for pregnant women to eat this with heavy bleeding." ”

"When your mother gave birth to you, she was bleeding profusely, and then she was weak for a long time, so she ate this and ate well."

Seeing that Li Duoyu spent so much money to buy fish bladders, the second uncle and the eldest uncle said one after another:

"Duoyu, your third uncle and uncle both said that they would give it to you directly, and you don't have to pay so much money."

But at the insistence of Li Duoyu, he finally bought the swim bladder at half the price.

"Third uncle, in two days, when I return to the island, you settle my share of the money, if it is not enough, you can ask me again."

"Enough must be enough."

And the remaining yellow-lipped fish, although there is no swim bladder, can still be sold for a lot of money, at least not cheaper than the big yellow croaker.

Originally, everyone was not motivated, but after seeing that Li Duoyu spent money to buy fish bladders, they all started working neatly.

The yellow-lipped fish was rinsed clean, and then the swim bladder was taken out, and everyone was very considerate to clean the blood on the swim bladder.

The second uncle asked: "Duoyu, what are you doing with so many fish bladders, this thing seems to be for pregnant women." ”

Li Duoyu said truthfully: "This thing sells well on Hong Kong Island, I plan to stock up on it and sell it to them in the future." ”

"You know all this?"

Li Duoyu smiled: "When I used to go to the next province, I listened to the fishermen over there. ”

And why Li Duoyu is even very clear about the affairs on Hong Kong Island, Li Shuguang is too lazy to ask.

The most incomprehensible thing he could not understand until now was what Li Duoyu said last night.

"Mazu Niangniang said that we will definitely make a lot of money tomorrow."

He really got it right.

Once or twice, maybe luck.

But after cooperating with him to fish so many times, it seems that every time he is lucky, this is no longer luck.

It's fate.

In the past, Li Duoyu would be a street slocker, and often went to sea in the middle of the night to sell goods, and the second aunt, that is, Li Duoyu's mother, had to go to Tianhou Temple every day to pray for blessings.

It can be said that the most sincere believer on the island is the second aunt.

And since Agui's accident, Li Duoyu seems to have been ignited, completely changed as a person, and even got better with luck.

It seems that after I go back, I have to let the mother-in-law at home go to worship. (End of chapter)
