Chapter 191 What Went Wrong?

"Come!"

"Let me look at these eels in the live cabin!"

Wu Weimin said while reaching out to open the cover of the living cabin.

Zhao Dahai's expression changed and he immediately stopped him. The eel was not an ordinary fish, and Wu Minwei was no different from seeking death.

Zhao Dahai carefully opened the cover of the living cabin, not daring to open it too much. He only opened the cover to a size that could fit the net, picked up the net and put it down.

Wu Weimin's expression changed. As soon as the net was put into the living cabin, the eels inside were moving wildly, the water was agitated, and the sound of hitting the ship's deck was very loud. Then I remembered that what was in the living cabin was not yellow snapper, black snapper or grouper, but a white eel with sharp teeth that could struggle and move desperately. If you take a bite, it is no joke.

"Boss Wu."

"Where are these eels kept?"

Zhao Dahai fished up a white eel.

Wu Weimin thought about it, put it in a mesh bag, and then put it in the live water tank in his car.

"This kind of eel is generally not easy to feed. You can just put it in the refrigerator."

Zhao Dahai knew that Wu Weimin wanted to feed them, but white eels were really hard to feed. Basically, ferocious fish were extremely difficult to feed. When caught or caught, they left the familiar living environment and became very irritable and desperately struggling. Sooner or later Died of anger.

"OK!"

"Go directly to the refrigerator!"

Wu Weimin nodded. He is a cook and knows seafood very well. In a short period of time, such as a few hours, it is fine, but in a long period of time, it is impossible. This batch of white eels is planned to be kept for ten days, and it is even more impossible to feed them until then. .

Zhao Dahai began to fish out the eels in the live cabin and put them into mesh bags, ten in each small mesh bag, plus ten bags in the refrigerator.

"Yo!"

“These eels are so big!”

…

"Is it the row hook?"

“I wonder where you can catch a giant eel of this size?”

…

"Amazing!"

…

When Zhao Dahai was fishing for eels, many people gathered around the pier to watch the excitement.

"Don't you need to hide a little bit? Don't you want these people to know?"

Wu Weimin lowered his voice. There are more and more people watching the excitement around. They all know that Zhao Dahai has caught a lot of eels by releasing hooks. Someone will definitely go out to sea to release hooks tomorrow. Everyone is very familiar with this sea area and can probably guess where the hooks are placed.

"Today I put the raft hook on the sea for a day, and pulled the raft hook for a day. The place is not particularly far from the pier, and people who saw it saw a lot of fishing boats."

"I can't hide it."

"in addition."

"This kind of giant white eel is not native to China, it comes with the tide."

"I can catch fish these two days, but I may not be able to catch it tomorrow, and it may even be almost 100% impossible."

Zhao Dahai shook his head. During the day, when I was pulling the hook, many people had already seen it. Whether anyone saw it here at the dock is no longer important. The key is that if you release the hook tomorrow, you may not be able to catch the eel.

Zhao Dahai has decided not to go out to sea to fish for eels tomorrow.

Zhao Dahai rode a tricycle and Wu Weimin drove his off-road vehicle back to the yard. The total weighed was two hundred and one kilogram and seven taels.

"How about two hundred and twenty yuan per pound for any currency, big or small?"

Wu Weimin made an offer.

Zhao Dahai nodded in agreement.

"OK!"

"That's the price!"

Zhao Dahai smiled, and made a lot of money after a hard day today. The price Wu Weimin offered was not bad. If he sold it to others, even Liu Gang, he might not be able to sell it at this price, but Wu Weimin did not suffer a loss. One is that the bigger the white eel is, the more valuable it is. Wild life is more valuable than farmed products. Generally, a catty of more than one catty can be sold for about 80 yuan per catty, and a catty or two catty can usually be sold for one hundred yuan. a catty. All the white eels I caught weighed more than one catty, and some even weighed five or six catties. In addition, and more importantly, if Wu Weimin buys from other fishmongers, he has to pay the middleman's price difference, which is definitely more expensive than buying from his own hands.

"The total is forty-four thousand three hundred and seventy-four yuan!"

Wu Weimin calculated the accounts, often received seafood, and there was cash in the car, so he took the count and handed it to Zhao Dahai. Zhao Dahai made almost 45,000 yuan in a day or two. This speed is really amazing. Fishing Whether you can make money or not by fishing really depends on the person. There are so many people at the pier who go fishing and fishing, none of them thought of setting out the hooks, and no one was the first to find out where the white eels are. Zhao Dahai has the ability and brains to get rich. natural thing. Not to mention anything else, Zhao Dahai took himself out to sea to fish, and he was able to catch more fish than others.

"Boss Wu."

"Can you not go fishing?"

Zhao Dahai took the money, counted it, took it home and put it away, and walked out again.

"ha!"

"How can you not fish? This time I came here to ask you to fish."

Wu Weimin rubbed his hands vigorously, feeling extremely itchy.

Zhao Dahai said that just a few days after the typhoon, there were very few fish in the sea, and there were no other fish when the hook was released. If you want to fish, it is more appropriate to wait another five or six days.

"Don't!"

"I really can't stand it anymore!"

"It doesn't matter if you have fish or not, one or two are fine. Just get addicted to it!"

Wu Weimin really wants to fish.

Seeing that Wu Weimin insisted on going to sea, Zhao Dahai made an appointment to meet at the pier at five or six o'clock tomorrow morning.

Wu Weimin drove away satisfied.

Zhao Dahai walked back to the yard and closed the door.

When Zhong Cuihua saw that Zhao Dahai had finally finished his work, he immediately called for dinner. It was already past twelve o'clock.

Zhao Dahai walked into the kitchen. The food was hot on the stove. He didn't set a table. He put the rice on the stove and sat in front of the stove. While eating, he chatted with his grandma Zhong Cuihua. After the meal, he took a shower and went to bed immediately. Tomorrow I have to take Wu Weimin out to sea for fishing early in the morning.

five o'clock in the morning.

Zhao Dahai woke up on time and glanced at the window. The sky began to turn white, and the roosters in the village kept crowing one after another.

Zhao Dahai got up, walked into the kitchen, cooked breakfast and finished eating. He opened the door to the courtyard and glanced at the sea in the distance. It was very calm. The weather was good. He took a few deep breaths, stretched and turned his head. I saw Wu Weimin's car driving over.

Zhao Dahai walked over immediately. Wu Weimin is really a crazy fishing enthusiast. He drove back to the town last night, at least at one o'clock in the morning. The eels he bought from him must be processed, and it will take some time. But now It was between 5:30 and 6:00 in the morning. I slept for less than three hours, maybe I didn't sleep, and I rushed back as soon as I saw the time was almost up. I couldn't do this kind of thing if I wasn't a true hobby or madness.

Zhao Dahai waited for Wu Weimin to park the car, opened the trunk, took down all the fishing rods and other things, put them on his tricycle, and immediately rushed to the dock. After waiting for a while, the fishing boats that went out to sea for fishing came back one after another. I bought live shrimp and went directly to the sea to fish.

Zhao Dahai had just left the dock with his fishing boat. Wu Weimin thought of the eel incident and said he wanted to see the place where the hooks were placed. Knowing that he wanted to see if someone else would place the hooks there, he turned the fishing boat. direction, rushed over, and when I arrived, I saw that there was nothing wrong. Seven or eight fishing boats were releasing hooks.

Wu Weimin shook his head. The competition in fishing is really fierce. Without Zhao Dahai's ability, it is really difficult to make money.

"Boss Wu."

"Now go to the reef trench to see if there are any fish."

"If there's no fish, I'll take you to the oyster field to try. If there's still no fish, you'll have to go to the fish steak to enjoy yourself!"

Zhao Dahai talked about today's arrangements with Wu Weimin while driving the fishing boat away. Although he knew that there were no fish in the sea, especially when he laid the hooks and covered such a large sea area, he could not catch any fish, but since he went out to sea We still have to let Wu Weimin catch fish as much as possible. We can't just say that there are no fish in the sea.

"OK!"

"That's how it is arranged!"

Wu Weimin immediately agreed. This arrangement is very good. If you can catch fish in the wild, it will definitely be better. If you can't catch it, just fish fillet. If that doesn't work, you can always catch fish if you catch two red drum fish in the cage. Can have a hand addiction.

Zhao Dahai drove the fishing boat to the reef trench. It was empty. There were only three fishing boats. He immediately felt something bad. The typhoon had passed for several days. If there were fish here, there would be a lot of fishing boats. If there were no fishing boats, there would be no fish. , I have come here, I must try it. I changed several spots and fished for two hours, but there was not a single fish.

Zhao Dahai had no choice but to drive a fishing boat to take Wu Weimin to the oyster field where he had fished very well before the typhoon. When he arrived, he was a bit dumbfounded. It was so densely packed with fishing boats everywhere.

"ah?"

"Why are there so many fishing boats fishing here?"

Wu Weimin was taken aback.

Zhao Dahai smiled wryly. The oyster field is indeed a very good fishing place, but there were not so many fishing boats in the few times we visited before the typhoon.

Why are there so many fishing boats here?

The oyster fields are sheltered from the wind and the oyster fields are home to native fish, so they are less affected by typhoons. The only reason why so many fishing boats are crowded here is that there is no way to catch fish elsewhere on the beach, so there is no way to crowd them all here.

This is definitely not a good thing.

Zhao Dahai took a closer look and found that there were not only fishing boats in streams or a few places where fish could often be caught, but also many fishing boats with no place to fish and no fixed fishing spots. They fished directly beside wooden piles or adjusted oyster ropes.

What does it mean to have more people than fish?

This is the scene before me!

Zhao Dahai drove his fishing boat around the Haitian fields several times and finally found an empty place. The two of them fished for more than an hour only for a small black seabream as big as three fingers.

Wu Weimin heard Zhao Dahai say yesterday that there were no fish in the sea, and he didn't believe it. Now he finally knows that he was not joking. It is really difficult to fish after the typhoon.

Zhao Dahai and Wu Weimin discussed it and decided not to waste time trying elsewhere and go directly to Zhang Defei's fish steak.

Zhao Dahai and Wu Weimin returned to Langtou Village. They parked the fishing boat at the pier, took their fishing gear and drove to the pier of Paiwan Village. They took Zhang Defei's small fishing boat and loaded up the fish steaks.

"Boss Zhang."

“What kind of fish is the person who’s serving the fish steaks lately?!”

Zhao Dahai asked Zhang Defei immediately after eating the fish steak.

"Isn't it a typhoon day recently? Some red drum fish came out of the breeding tanks again!"

"However, a few days ago, many people went up to the fish rafts and caught a batch. It's hard to say how many are left now. If you have to keep it, you can definitely catch some."

Zhang Defei took out a cigarette as he spoke. Zhao Dahai refused to smoke and handed one to Wu Weimin.

Wu Weimin patted his thigh hard, he was late.

Zhao Dahai smiled and didn't care. After the typhoon, it is indeed the best time to catch red drum fish. However, this kind of fish is not worth much, and there are so many people fishing. It may not be possible to catch many fish in the past few days. Today It was already noon, and there was no one around. At least since yesterday, no one has been able to catch many red drum fish.

"correct!"

"Recently some golden ancient fish have appeared in the fish steak. They are all very big, weighing two to three kilograms, and some of them are black golden ancient. It depends on whether you have such abilities?"

Zhang Defei recalled that in the past few days, some people occasionally caught one or two golden ancient fish. These were not native to the fish raft, but might have been brought by the tide or simply by the typhoon.

Zhao Dahai was moved immediately.

The tiger on the ground and the king in the sea!

This means that the golden ancient fish in the sea tastes very good. In particular, the black golden ancient that Zhang Defei just mentioned is a very rare variety, and the price is very high.

If it is really possible to catch, as long as a few three to five catties, it is very cost-effective to make this trip. Even ordinary jingu pulls very well and feels very good in the hand.

Zhao Dahai and Wu Weimin started preparations immediately.

There is not much space for the fish rafts, so you need to use a short pole for fishing. The red drum fish that are raised in the rafts must be pulled up quickly, so as not to get entangled in the rope or cut on the mussels. You have to use a thick hook.

Zhao Dahai and Wu Weimin put poles in several corners and in the middle of the fish rafts, and watched for two hours, not to mention that there were no red drum fish that escaped from the golden ancient fish farming.

Zhao Dahai glanced at Wu Weimin who was not far away. There was really no fish. He was raising a red drum fish in a net box looking for a sense of presence. It was really necessary to do this.

No way?

What went wrong?

No fish in the fish steak?

Zhao Dahai frowned. A pole was placed on the raft, and the poles were placed all around the raft where it was possible to catch dog sharks, and there was no movement at all.

Zhang Defei walked out of the small house and called out to eat. Simple meals were provided on the fish steak, just pay for it.

Zhao Dahai and Wu Weimin put down their fishing rods. The sky is big and the earth is big, and the food is the biggest. No matter whether there is fish or not, the stomach must be full.

"The impact of the typhoon is not big, right?"

…

"The conditions in your Paiwan village are so good that you don't need to go out to sea to fish, and farming can make a lot of money!"

…

Wu Weimin chatted with Zhang Defei while eating.

Zhao Dahai is holding a large bowl, which contains rice, plus a few pieces of pork belly, pan-fried red drum salted fish and some green vegetables, which are absolutely indispensable on the farmed red drum fish steak. It is ordinary but easy to eat and fill the stomach. eating.

Huh?

Kingo?

Zhao Dahai was eating, and accidentally glanced at the sea water next to the fish row house, and saw a fish the size of a palm. At first, he wasn't sure what it was. After waiting for a while, the fish appeared again. It was clearly seen that it was indeed a golden ancient fish.

There are fish!

There are really fish!

Zhang Defei did not lie, there is indeed a golden ancient fish!

Zhao Dahai watched for two or three hours, but there was no trace of the golden ancient fish. He wondered if Zhang Defei misread it or deliberately lied.

Why can't I catch it?

No fish mouth?

Zhao Dahai thought for a while, picked out some rice and threw it into the sea water, Jingu fish flicked its tail and disappeared into the water.

Zhao Dahai took a mouthful of food, thinking about what was going on, if he couldn't catch any fish, there must be something wrong, as long as he figured it out clearly, he would definitely be able to catch it.
