MTL - Back To the Small Fishing Village In 1982-Chapter 493 fishing (two
Chapter 493 Fishing (two chapters merged into one chapter, the number of words is almost short, will be added tomorrow)
It is not easy to make a living at sea, not only on their side, but also on this side, and it seems that there are many conflicts between the surrounding villages and the usual villages.
I don’t know if it’s because of the border. There are various dialects, and there are even more conflicts. The surrounding villages on their side are quite peaceful.
Ye Yaodong was also a little worried at once. They are foreigners, and it’s okay to stay for a day or two. If they stay for a long time and earn a lot of money, the villagers will probably be jealous and stumble, and they might not be able to leave by then.
While tying the rope to the boat, he wondered if he had to shoot one shot for another? Or simply live on the boat?
After taking out the ropes of the two boats and tying them up, he returned to his own boat and asked Ye Yaosheng to sail back.
And he also told his two cousins about his concerns, and wanted to see what they said?
The two were also stunned for a moment, and after thinking about it, it would be fine for them to rent out in the village as a foreigner, but the point is that they are also fishing for jellyfish, making money is obvious to all, and there are people with ulterior motives everywhere. .
In case people are really jealous, people with good deeds stir up conflicts, and the people in the village don’t let them go easily, or some **** accidents happen, they can’t afford it either.
"Then what should we do? Do we really want to live on the boat, but there is no fresh water like this! And we have to dry the jellyfish blood."
"Otherwise we can only sell the whole one? When the time comes, stop nearby and fetch a few buckets of water?"
It was a bit of a loss to sell the whole thing, Ye Yaodong rubbed the bridge of his nose, this era is too uneasy now, and it is easy to fight if there is a disagreement.
"Let's take a look later. After all, we just moved into the village yesterday, and today we saved the family members of their village. How can we be friendly for a while? It should be fine in a short time. Wait for a few days and let's see the situation." , if the signs are not right, just move out."
And I don’t know that his elder brother and second brother are really not sure about coming today. He left the name of the village. I don’t know if they can find it. If they come to meet up, there will be more of them, and they will be safer at sea.
"That's okay. I just saved someone, and the village should be friendly for a while. If I go to another village, I don't know if I can talk."
"That is to say, it is not safe for anyone to know that there is a lot of money in their pockets. When I get the money, I will go to the post office in the town to open an account and deposit all the money in it, saving money." It’s not safe to keep it by your side, and I’m afraid it will fall.”
He also said the latter sentence on purpose. People can’t stand the test, and he doesn’t know how much money he can make this trip. It’s better to kill unnecessary risks in advance.
"Yes, it's good to save it, and you won't be afraid of losing it if you save it."
The two cousins nodded in agreement, their eyes were clear, and they didn't have any extra thoughts, Ye Yaodong felt relieved.
He smiled and said: "This trip is hard, you follow me to take risks, then see how much money you can earn, and I will send you three big red envelopes."
Big cousin smiled innocently with his dark face, "You are welcome, we are all brothers of our own family, and we are all our own people."
"Yeah, earning money with someone is not earning money. It's good to help you a little bit. It's much better for us to follow you than to work with others." The second cousin also echoed with a smile.
Ye Yaodong nodded, "Then let's live in the village for a few days first, and then we can spend a few days with peace of mind."
"Well, let's divide the remaining jellyfish first."
One boat is pulling the other boat, and it is slowly driving back, but the speed of the two boats is not as fast as a single boat, even though they are going as fast as possible.
Ye Yaodong would go to the stern of the boat from time to time to check on the situation of the people on board, and rest assured that they were all awake. Some jellyfish are very poisonous, and some jellyfish are not so poisonous. It all depends on luck.
It was a blessing among misfortunes that they could run into him today, and he didn't seem to be deeply poisoned. I guess they can go back to a health center and get an injection.
The two boats were driving on the road, and the fishing boats they encountered along the way avoided them far away, and no one dared to approach them, for fear of causing trouble.
At the beginning, it may be that their boats sailed far away, and there were not many fishing boats. After driving for more than ten minutes, there were more small wooden boats on the sea.
Scattered small wooden boats are scattered everywhere. Each fisherman is fishing for jellyfish with hand-drawn nets. Basically, there are more than two or three people in a boat. There are men and women.
Seeing them, they all looked over curiously. There were two fishing boats, and I didn’t know if they were familiar with each other. Seeing them, they boldly followed them directly.
After they docked on the shore, the two boats also docked and asked about the situation on the boat behind.
Ye Yaodong went to the stern to listen, and untied the rope by the way, only to realize that the two small wooden boats belonged to his brothers.
The people on the two boats also climbed onto the big boat, filled with righteous indignation, cursing angrily, looking like they wanted to rush to the next village right away.
Old man Lu didn't know what they were talking about, so they stopped cursing, but their expressions were still angry, and one person came over to thank him.
"You should take them to the health center first to have a look. The toxicity of jellyfish is strong or weak. It has been delayed for a long time. Safety first."
"Okay, thank you, let's go first."
Lu Hongwei thanked them again before getting off the boat.
The women on the shore, seeing their state, all came forward to inquire about them, and then they all yelled excitedly there.
It seems that the conflict between the two villages has been going on for a long time.
Ye Yaodong took a look and then looked away. He is not from the village anyway, so he doesn't care about these things.
"Cousin, you two first bring two barrels of jellyfish blood back home for my father to cook first. By the way, tell Brother Liang to ask him to call a car to collect it, and we will watch it on the boat."
They went out this morning and estimated that they have caught 50 or 60 by now. The sum of the large and small should be the same as yesterday afternoon, and there are still three thousand catties.
When this boat is taken away, they can go out again, but the sun is big, and there should be fewer people floating in the afternoon.
While they were waiting, many fishing boats on the shore also brought back full of jellyfish one after another. Some of the small wooden boats had relatively small space, so they fished them out and divided them up.
At this time, Ye Yaodong couldn't help feeling sorry, if only he could unload the goods in his own village and let his family watch them, they could go out immediately instead of waiting here and delaying things.
But there is no way.
Fortunately, the tractor came quickly this morning. When they brought back the jellyfish blood and jellyfish brains in batches, the truck also came to collect the goods, and Ye Yaodong even made an appointment with him at about 4 pm for them to come again Receive a shipment.
However, all prices were reduced by 5% today. Although the jellyfish they caught this morning were heavier than yesterday's, they only sold for a little over 70 yuan.
Once the quantity increases, the price will drop, but the price is still very good. After all, due to the impact of the typhoon some time ago, the fishing has only recently started, but the price will definitely drop as the time goes on.
Now we can only hope for good weather, so we can fish for a few more days.
After Ye Yaodong and the others loaded the cargo onto the tractor, they continued to go to sea non-stop.
The coal stove on the ship is still there. Although it’s not early or late, I still have to get something to eat, so I won’t have time to eat when I’m busy.
When they went out to sea, there were many small wooden boats coming back one after another. These boats did not dare to run too far. They were about ten or twenty minutes away from the shore. They were close to the shore. The surrounding fishing boats belonged to the village. , be safe.
Ye Yaodong saw that there were fishing boats all around the coast, and there were many monks and little meat, so he didn't want to stay here longer, so as not to be suspected of grabbing goods from the villagers and attracting hatred.
The boat sails far away as soon as it sets off. There are more seas in the distance, so you don’t have to fight with others when you fish casually.
It was only in the afternoon that the sun retracted into the clouds, and it looked overcast, but fortunately it didn't rain, and they could continue fishing.
Big cousin looked at the cloudy sky anxiously, "Dongzi, it's raining, so you can't catch him?"
"Small rain should be fine, but heavy rain will definitely not work. The jellyfish also sank back into the sea when it rained. There is nowhere to look for it, and the wind is too strong."
"Then I can earn a few days this month, I have to ask God to bless me."
"Isn't it? You depend on the sky to eat, who can say for sure? This is the same as the ancient people planted rice. Whether it is a bumper harvest, a reduced yield, or no harvest, you can only wait for God to bless you. These 360 lines, every row will be the best. It’s also risky, and it’s not easy to do anything.”
"However, my luck shouldn't be so bad, anyway, it's enough money, and the next thing I do will be earned."
Ye Yaodong had just fished out a jellyfish, when he saw another jellyfish floating up next to it, which seemed extremely small in size, so he covered it with a net bag, tried to lift it, and found it was very easy.
He mentioned that he took a look at the side of the boat, and found that this one weighed about seven or eight catties, and it was still a baby jellyfish. After thinking about it, he simply let it go.
Compared with what he fished in the past two days, it is too small. It is better to put it back and let it grow for a long time. It is sustainable. Anyway, if he fishes any one, it is more than twenty or thirty catties, and there are fifty or sixty catties. It is not bad. one.
"Old cousin, when you catch it later, it's too small, so just throw it away. It's too small, and it's not very useful. Keep the big one and discard the small one."
"Okay, but there are not many small ones. The jellyfish seen in this sea area are all big ones."
"Well, it's good to fish big, and it has weight. It's too hard to fish, and one person can't lift it up. It's heavier than anything else, and it's carrying water. After fishing for a long time, it's almost boring if you don't fish many. gone."
He wiped the sweat off his cheeks, and continued: "It's okay to be bored. It's still hot today, and I sweat a lot. It's cool in the morning. I'm so bored right now."
The eldest cousin smiled, "You should take off the sun hat on your head to cool down."
They often saw him wearing a sun hat in the village, and they had long been familiar with it.
"That won't work. You don't need to wear it in the morning, but you have to wear it at noon. It's easy to get dark when there is no sun in the middle of the day."
The second cousin joked: "You are fairer than ordinary girls, and you need sun protection? I saw that when I entered the village yesterday, there were many big girls and young wives in the village staring at you without blinking. "
Ye Yaodong is a little proud. He has been protecting himself from the sun for more than half a year.
"Who made me look handsome? There's no way, I rely on this face for a living, of course I have to pay attention to sun protection."
"Why do you rely on this face for food? Didn't you earn a lot in the past two years? Your daughter-in-law is submissive at home, right? I haven't seen a bitter face before, and she is quite smiling when she sees people. "
"That's no, don't say I'm making money now. When I wasn't making money, she was docile and obedient in front of me. She even washed my feet and squeezed toothpaste for me every day, and didn't say no."
Lin Xiuqing: "?"
"You are living a good life now. It is really because of the good feng shui of the house. Your family is seeing that the days are getting more and more prosperous."
"Okay."
…
One afternoon, they were all chatting while fishing, and they were not bored at all, and with the lessons learned from Lu Hongwei's family in the morning, they did not dare to go too far.
It's just that when they were fishing, they saw a huge jellyfish moving ahead. Ye Yaodong's eyes lit up when he saw it. It happened that the jellyfish around them had all been caught, and they wanted to move forward. He quickly asked Ye Yaosheng to sail the boat. chased after.
"That's big! It's bigger than any of the previous troubles. Just follow up to have a look and fish it."
Ye Yaodong leaned on the side of the boat and kept looking forward. Just as they were catching up, he saw this white jellyfish followed by what looked like a black shell?
Shell?
Turtle shell?
"Huh? The turtles are sneaking up on jellyfish?"
"Where? Ah, such a big turtle?"
I saw a sea turtle with a shell about the size of the bottom of the washbasin falling behind the jellyfish. This sea turtle seemed to have just bitten a piece of jellyfish tentacles from the bottom.
When they saw it, there were white jellyfish tentacles on its mouth, and they swallowed it instantly, and then watched it drift with the jellyfish reluctantly, chasing after it, biting a piece of tentacles from time to time.
But the jellyfish has nothing to do with it. It is covered with turtle shells, blocking the jellyfish's tentacles, making it helpless.
It’s okay, since he saw it, it’s his.
Ye Yaodong stopped the boat in advance, and when they were about to sink into the water to kill each other, he directly covered the jellyfish with a net, so that the turtles had nowhere to attack.
I don't know if his actions made the sea turtle anxious, leaving it nowhere to bite. The sea turtle actually bit the fishing net and was dragged to the side of the boat by him.
When he got close, he also saw the secret numb barnacles growing on the turtle's back, wondering if it was uncomfortable.
He took the handle in his hand and tried to lift it up slowly, but found that he couldn't lift it at all. The old watch next to him quickly reached out to help lift it.
With great effort, I slowly lifted it up a little bit, only to find that the turtle was still clinging to the end of the umbrella where the jellyfish at the bottom came out of the net.
"Damn it, you're dying to eat it in one bite. Help me get a stick to poke it down. If it's not a turtle, but another fish, I'll just catch them all."
"Can we just catch this turtle together?"
"Forget it, such a big sea turtle is also a mascot. Didn't I hear that in the past, the temples used to do good deeds, and if they were released, they were all turtles released? Sea turtles are similar to tortoises, let's let them go. This can protect human beings from danger. Ji, it’s safe and sound, but people will suffer retribution.”
Although this turtle is not very punished yet, he has also seen that his luck is good over the past year. He may not have realized it at first, but the fool behind him can also see that his luck is not ordinary, so he believes it even more. This is the way of luck.
"That's right, the turtle is quite auspicious, so I'll poke it down and let it go back into the sea."
The second cousin took a stick and poked the turtle shell. It seemed to be frightened, and it immediately retracted its head, and then fell back into the sea. Its four legs kept paddling, and its body sank quickly. in the water.
Seeing it sinking, Ye Yaodong asked both of them to help pull it. This huge jellyfish really weighs a hundred catties, and the weight of the water is very heavy. Two people may not be able to pull it up.
The three of them gritted their teeth and their arms were bulging, and then they moved the net along the side of the boat little by little.
As soon as they got to the side of the boat, they threw their hands onto the boat, and a huge jellyfish fell onto the boat with a snap.
"so big!"
"It's really big, there are such a big jellyfish, one of them reached several next to it."
"Such a big one is not easy to divide. There are so many tentacles at the bottom. If you are not careful, you will be stung. I was not skilled yesterday. When I was dividing it, I was stung lightly. It hurt for a long time."
"It's okay, I'll do it later, most of its tentacles have been eaten by sea turtles."
Such a big person is not easy to separate, and it is very likely that it will cool down if it is pricked, so he has to come.
Ye Yaodong kicked it while talking, and lifted the umbrella end with his foot, looked at the foot, and it was indeed half eaten.
"You sail to catch yours, and I will divide them."
"OK."
Then everything went smoothly on the sea, and it was also because they were more cautious. After all, on other people's land, they saw a boat that was about the same size as theirs, so they avoided it far away.
When the time approached in the afternoon, they set off and returned. They had to go to the shore before four o'clock to wait for the delivery.
It just made them a little strange that when they drove to the shore, there were no small wooden boats fishing for jellyfish around the coast.
This is simply unbelievable. When they approached the shore yesterday, the surrounding waters were full of hard-working fishers floating on the sea. It’s not too late today, right?
It is reasonable that not all fishing boats return to port so early.
"Could it be that the whole village went to fight?"
"So united? Don't make a lot of money, and all go to fight?"
"It's hard to say. When they are unanimous to the outside world, the village is generally very united, let alone a village with the same surname like theirs, and there are so many brothers in that family, let alone a cousin?"
"Don't worry, it's more important to sell today's goods first. I don't know if my elder brother and second brother have sailed there? Where? Can I find this village? This town is so big, it's not easy to find a village." It's hard."
The number of words in this one is a bit short, I will add another one tomorrow depending on the situation, and add more words
