Start of the famine: Take the crazy batch of sisters to farm and make a fortune

Chapter 353 Bowfish
"This, this, this?"

Chen An was at a loss.

Ding Xuewei's originally stretched face suddenly tangles into a group, and his voice is full of anxiety and caution when he speaks: "Nowadays, food is in short supply, if we sell the birds we catch in the city, it will cause dissatisfaction to some extent. I was a little scared, so I asked my uncles to help me."

It is difficult for others to eat food, but you catch too many birds to sell for money... mainly because you can sell too many birds.

Others have to think again and again when buying food, but you are picking up a lot of money for nothing.

If you have the ability to catch something that is born with nature, it will be yours, but the people of Yuequan Village are too capable!

Last year it was pigs, cattle, wild donkeys, pheasants and hares, and this year it was bamboo worms and birds.

Although you get rewarded because of your hard work, there are always some people who are lazy and jealous that others can live better than themselves.

Chen An and his group are very concerned about Ding Xuewei. The words Ding's family and Yuequan Village are very attractive to them. Ding Xuewei's words immediately reminded them of the topic of praise and criticism of sweet potato vines in the house.

The sweet potatoes that Ding Xuewei worked so hard to grow are not only surprising, but also skeptical, wondering how a child would have such courage to buy unknown fruit seeds, and doubting whether her sentiment of not asking for anything in return is unreasonable. She has a purpose, and even suspects that there is some big person behind her, so that she can continue to cultivate.

"Uncle Chen, come here, I have something to tell you." Before Chen An could nod his head to answer the important matter of helping consumption, Ding Xuewei mysteriously pulled him aside.

This time, Chen An brought not only huge groupers, but also some fresh fish and shellfish that are common on the seashore. Because she was afraid that she would not be able to finish eating them as soon as possible, when unloading the truck, all these large wooden barrels were unloaded. I understand, Chen An also specially reminded her not to add water to change the water.

The most fundamental reason why they can successfully deliver fresh food to the city is that they did not desalinize the seawater during transportation to replace the salty water quality that seafood is used to.

They did not mention the skills of delivering fresh food, but they revealed the secret in their words and deeds!

"Last year, when I was in Linhai County, I ran into an old fish seller. The old man carried the catch and sold it in the streets." There are many fishermen in Linhai County who carry fish for sale: "Guess, the old man sells fish. Fish, how is it different from what other people sell?"

Chen An was confused: "?"

At this time, his mind was still on helping Ding Xuewei solve the big trouble of the bird.

"The fish he carries are all alive, they will open their mouths to breathe when put into the water, and they won't die in a short time." Ding Xuewei took the initiative to give the answer.

Chen An was even more confused: "Huh?"

"The old man has a stubborn temper, and he always asks for two cents more than others. Therefore, his catches are always opened after others have sold out." Under Chen An's dazed eyes, Ding Xuewei brazenly weaves lies: "When our sisters were out of the stall, the old man was out of the stall, and he was still walking around the streets when we closed the stall."

Suddenly, Ding Xue showed a little shyness: "I always like to be troublesome, and I have more chances to meet the old man, so I can talk freely. The old man didn't blame me for being troublesome, but said confidently that his fish , can survive out of water for one or two days in summer, and more than five or six days in winter.”

"Fresh food will die soon after leaving the water. Even shellfish can hardly live for two days. Our family has been in Linhai County for some time at that time, so I naturally don't believe what he said."

At this point, Ding Xuewei looked embarrassed.

After a pause, I scraped my nose a few times, and then I mustered up my courage: "I've always been curious, if you don't believe me, I always want to find out..."

She didn't say how she explored it, and she probably didn't look very honorable based on her extremely guilty look.

"His way of tying fish is different from others. Others hang the gills directly, but he fixes the fish tail with a rope passing through the gills, and binds the fish into a bow."

"The method of tying fish that is different from other people's is the method I can think of to prolong the life of the catch." Not very confident, she scratched her head.

If Chen An was full of birds before, then at this moment he is full of bow fish skills.

He didn't dare to say that he knew the little girl in front of him much, but from the basic contact, he affirmed the simple and honest quality of this little girl who said that everything is one, and never boasted.

"Can you demonstrate?" Chen An was in high spirits.

Tilting her head and thinking for a few seconds, Ding Xue frowned slightly and nodded: "I'll try to see if I can restore the way the old man tied the fish."

She was curious, but she hadn't tried it. Naturally, the next technique was familiar but flustered and uncertain.

Not to mention Chen An, even old man Ding didn't realize that his granddaughter was talking about panic.

"I'm going to die, take it easy, if you pull again, you'll die!"

When Ding Xuewei pulled hard on the rope that passed through the fish's gills and fixed on the fish's tail, old man Ding couldn't hold back his mouth.

Ding Xue, who was about to tie the knot, loosened her fingers slightly.

After the fish that was not completely fixed were put into the water, they churned even more, and all the onlookers were splashed with seawater.

Innocently, Ding Xue raised her head slightly: "Grandpa, that old man's fish cannot swim in the water basin. If the rope is not untied, it will be as if it is dead."

Old man Ding, who had never seen bow fish skills before, moved his lips, but finally he didn't say anything.

"Try again." He believed in his eldest granddaughter.

Bowfish technique is an intangible inheritance skill. Ding Xuewei has watched it several times from TV videos, but he has never tried it himself. The first time he did it, he couldn't help but feel nervous. He went back and forth countless times, and finally tamed the nasty guy who is slippery in his hands. .

"Uncle Chen, take it home and have a look."

Lifting the fish in the water, Ding Xuewei said directly like Chen An: "Just lift it like this, that old grandpa took care of it like this."

Even if Ding Xuewei spoke vividly and did it well, but when she brought the finished product that was tied up so that the fish bones might break in a second to Chen An, everyone felt that the child was thinking too much.

It may be true that the old man can prolong the life of the catch, but the special method of tying the fish she thought of should not be the key to prolonging the life of the catch.

Looking around, a big man suddenly patted Chen An: "Brother, quickly pick up the fish, let's move fast, it's getting late."

"...Yes, it's getting late." Chen An realized.

A few more seconds of delay, and the fish might die. How can I live up to my kindness?

Hastily, Chen An took the fish, and the crowd cheered and set off.

I was afraid that if I walked too slowly, Ding Xuewei would see the fish dead, and feel disappointed and blamed herself, the group of people was so quick, and after a while, the crowd walked away.

"Brother, why do I feel that something is wrong?"

Chen An, who was carrying the fish, subconsciously looked at the fish in his hand.

The man followed his gaze first, then shook his head when he understood.

"It's not the fish, but those wild pigeons. They catch the birds far away from the roadside. Even if passers-by find a huge difference in the number of birds falling and flying, they may not think that they have been caught. , who can catch birds with such a big net?"

The bird-catching net that Ding Xuewei asked to make later was bigger and wider than what Chen Yu asked for from Zhuangzi. That net cost a lot of money, and most people would not be willing to spend that money!
Few people think about things that are beyond ordinary people's cognition.

If they don't sell them in the market, they won't be discovered.

"... That little girl is kind-hearted, but she just gave us a reason to accept these wild pigeons!" Chen An frowned: "The reason why I didn't mention the bowfish when unloading the goods is because I didn't want to How much do I wait to reject her intentions!"
