Rebirth of Fishing Village: Starting from Hua Axiang in Jiehu Village

Chapter 290 Favor: You can’t just ignore a close relative

"100 yuan a catty!"

……

"One hundred and five catties!"

……

"110 yuan a catty!"

……

"110 yuan a catty!"

……

Zhao Dahai stood on the pier, listening to the fishmongers collecting fish, shrimps and crabs rushing to bargain with Zhong Shizhu, Liu Bin and Lei Dayou.

Small fish, shrimps and crabs are really not worth much, but really good things, such as orchid crabs or other big fish, everyone likes it very much, and everyone rushes for it.

"What!"

"Zhong Shizhu and the others are really lucky!"

"We all went out to sea to fish, why did some of them go out to sea to catch orchid crabs?"

……

"Where is the shit luck?"

"Zhao Dahai told them that there were no fish in the sea, so they went out to catch orchid crabs!"

"It's not their job!"

……

"Hey!"

"Zhao Dahai is really too powerful, I really let him say it!"

……

"Those of us who have been fishing for 30 to [-] years are not as good as Zhao Dahai, a young man in his early twenties!"

"It's really embarrassing!"

……

Zhao Dahai did not board the fishing boats of Zhong Shizhu, Liu Bin, and Lei Dayou, and the fishmongers were crowded. After waiting for a while, several other fishing boats returned to the pier. The fish caught were no different from the fishing boats that returned to the pier before. Fish, but there are not many fish, they are all small and not very valuable.

"Go home quickly!"

……

"Take a fishing net and go out to sea to catch orchid crabs!"

……

"Let's go!"

"Stop staying here!"

……

The people on the surrounding fishing boats all hurried onto the pier, and immediately left to rush home.

You've been up all night, do you have to go back to bed and rest for a while? ?

People who don’t make money don’t have the right to sleep and rest.

No one could bear it after a hard night without making any money and even having to pay for gas. Seeing Zhong Shizhu, Liu Bin and Lei Dayou catching a large number of orchid crabs made it even more impossible to go back to sleep.

Go to sea!

Go to sea now!

Go out to sea to catch orchid crabs before anyone else does.

Zhao Dahai watched the sun rise and the pier was getting hotter and hotter. He rode a tricycle home, walked into the yard, and looked around. Grandma Zhong Cuihua was weaving fishing nets in the main room. She pulled a stool and sat down to chat with her for a while. .

Zhao Dahai walked out of the yard and walked around the vegetable garden at the back of the house. After opening the vegetable field, he couldn’t finish the vegetables in the house. The longan and lychee grew very well. The banana he specially planted for his grandma Zhong Cuihua was taller than himself. I don't know if it will be able to tie the knot next year, but it will definitely grow in the year after.

Zhao Dahai plucked some old vegetables from the vegetable patch and threw them into the chicken coop. The chickens carried by the little hen had grown to the size of small footballs.

"Hey Hey!"

"If this continues, it will have to expand a little bit!"

Zhao Dahai looked at dozens of large and small hens, roosters and chicks, and it seemed a little cramped.

I have to sell some of it, right?
Zhao Dahai pondered for a while, the chicken coop was already big enough, and it wasn't necessary to keep it, it was too much.

Zhao Dahai didn't intend to talk about it. All these chickens were raised by grandma Zhong Cuihua. If she wants to sell them, she can buy them. If she wants to raise more, she can raise more chickens. If she wants to keep them for her family, she can keep them. Eat at home.

Expanding the chicken coop is just a matter of getting some bamboo or something, and it can be done in half a day without much effort before going out to sea.

"The sea!"

Zhao Dahai heard someone yelling at him, walked home and saw that Zhong Shizhu was holding a net bag in his hand, which contained orchid crabs.

"The sea!"

"I saved some orchid crabs with Liu Bin and Lei Dayou."

"Bring it here for you and your aunt to try something new."

Zhong Shizhu picked up the net bag in his hand while talking.

"Yo!"

"What are you doing?"

"You're welcome!"

"Who in our fishing village has never eaten orchid crab?"

"It's only real if you sell it for money!"

Zhao Dahai smiled and shook his head.

"what!"

"What kind of politeness is this?"

"I'll go back to have a meal, take a shower, and immediately go to sea again!"

Zhong Shizhu put down the net bag in his hand, turned and left in a hurry.

Zhao Dahai was not polite anymore, but from his own point of view, these orchid crabs are not very necessary, but Zhong Shizhu, Liu Bin and Lei Dayou were able to catch so many orchid crabs this trip and made a lot of money, thanks to A word of reminder from myself, I brought orchid crabs to express my gratitude, but I can't get some money.

Zhao Dahai walked into the yard carrying the net bag of orchid crabs, took a large iron basin, and poured them all out. The number was not too many, or seventeen or eight, but they were all seven or eight taels or more than one catty. The big orchid crab weighs fifteen or six pounds.

"Where did the orchid crab come from?"

Zhong Cuihua came out and saw giant orchid crabs one after another in the iron basin.

Zhao Dahai said that it was sent by Zhong Shizhu, Liu Bin and Lei Dayou, and then explained the ins and outs of the whole thing.

"grandmother!"

"The size of this orchid crab is really good, we ate it at noon while it was fresh!"

"I'll take some to Second Grandpa Zhao Shi, we can't eat so much!"

Zhao Dahai was holding a bag while talking, picked the biggest one and took six, and went out to Zhao Shi's house with them.

"Yo!"

"Such a big orchid crab!"

"Could it be you who went out to sea to catch it?"

Huang Jintao looked at the orchid crab, and was a little surprised. Zhao Dahai was only fishing in the sea, and he had never heard of fishing in the sea. He went fishing with Zhao Shi yesterday.

"Did Zhong Shizhu and the others go back to the pier? Did they really catch the crab?"

Zhao Shi heard the sound in the room, and came out while smoking his hookah. When he saw the orchid crab, he immediately thought of Zhao Dahai and Zhong Shizhu. They said that there were no fish in the sea, and there might be shrimps and crabs.

Zhao Dahai said that the Zhong Shizhu fishing boat came back and caught a lot of orchid crabs, took fifteen or six catties to his home, sent some over here to try something new, chatted a few words, and went home.

"What's going on?"

"Zhong Shizhu and the others went out to sea to catch crabs. What does this have to do with Zhao Dahai?"

Golden Peach is a bit strange. An orchid crab weighing fifteen or six pounds costs 2000 yuan, which is not a small sum.

Zhao Shi talked about the whole incident.

"what?"

"The sea is so powerful!?"

Jintao was taken aback.

"Dahai's brain is really good. So many people who go fishing in the sea have never thought of this."

Zhao Shi nodded.

Who said that going out to sea to fish doesn't make money?It's just that those who don't think about it can't make money.

Zhao Dahai is not like other people, thinking about where there are fish and the fish in the sea all day long.Zhong Shizhu, Liu Bin and Lei Dayou listened to Zhao Dahai's words and made a lot of money.

"what?"

"Why doesn't the sea go out to catch crabs by itself?"

"This kid knows there are crabs in the sea, but he doesn't catch them and tell others."

"How can you do such a thing? Even if you tell Zhong Shizhu, Liu Bin and Lei Da that there are a few of them, you have to go to sea, right? You have to get involved, right?"

Jintao is in a hurry.Zhong Shizhu, Liu Bin and Lei Dayou are not making money because Zhao Dahai is making money.

"Hehehe!"

"Why are you in a hurry? Why do you have to catch crabs? It is true that you can make money and you can make a lot of money, but can it compare to Zhao Dahai who went fishing by himself?"

Zhao Shi smiled and shook his head.

Zhao Dahai's fishing skills are no joke, he went out to sea together yesterday.There are many speedboats around, but few of them can really catch fish.

Zhao Dahai drove a speedboat, just strolled around, and he and himself caught two horse fish, not to mention his own, when he came back, he weighed 29 catties a tael, and the one Zhao Dahai caught had both Eight catties and seven taels, plus some other sea bass, made a small ten thousand casually.

The orchid crabs that Zhong Shizhu, Liu Bin, and Lei Dayou caught did make money, but they took a lot of time. If they went fishing during these hours, they would earn more money. Zhao Dahai had a clear account of this.

"Zhong Shizhu, Liu Bin and Lei Dayou caught the yellow crab, and the news spread when they returned to the dock. Then an unknown number of fishing boats all swarmed up and caught the orchid crab."

"This is a one-shot deal!"

"Fishing in the sea is good, and fishing is always better. You have to specialize in any line of work, so that you can do it well. Dahai understands it in his heart!"

Zhao Shi took a sip of the hookah.

"Yo!"

"Okay, okay!"

"Why do you say it's justified?!"

"What about these orchid crabs?"

Jintao pointed to the orchid crab in the bag.

"What else can I do? Is this worth talking about?"

"Cook it and eat it!"

"I have to drink two taels of wine at noon!"

Zhao Shi decided to eat it at noon. The big orchid crab, especially the one just landed, is very delicious.

When Zhao Dahai came home, it was almost twelve o'clock in the noon. Grandma Zhong Cuihua had already put rice and cooked the rice. She took a basket and put the remaining orchid crabs in it. After a brief rinse with the faucet, the big iron pot was cleaned and boiled. Dry, add a little bit of oil, when the smoke comes out, the orchid crabs are turned upside down one by one and placed in the pot, the lid is closed, and the fire is fierce, less than 2 minutes, the unique orchid crab The fresh and sweet taste filled the whole kitchen at once.

Zhao Dahai couldn't help swallowing a mouthful of saliva.

Fresh orchid crabs, especially those that are about seven or eight or even a pound in size, don't taste too good.

Zhao Dahai waited for another two or three minutes, and when he lifted the lid, a puff of steam rushed up, and he couldn't help taking a deep breath.

There are many ways to make orchid crabs. The common one is steamed, and the other is fried.

What Zhao Dahai did today is not a pure steamer. There is oil in it, but no water. The temperature of the oil is very high, and the crab itself has a certain amount of water. After cooking in this way, it has the fragrance of oil and the freshness of orchid crab itself. sweet.

Zhao Dahai took a clean basket and took it out one by one without caring about the heat, and walked into the main room with the basket in hand.

"grandmother!"

"Come!"

"Hurry up! Hurry up!"

The basket of orchid crabs that Zhao Dahai held in his hand was placed directly on the ground at Zhong Cuihua's feet, picked up a steaming orchid crab, opened the shell, and handed it to grandma Zhong Cuihua.

"Yo!"

"So fat?"

Zhong Cuihua took it over and took a look. The orchid crab that had just been cooked was very fat, already a little taller, and the meat was very full.

"what!"

“The orchid crabs are pretty good this season!”

"Tastes great!"

Zhao Dahai couldn't wait to pick up another orchid crab. There was a lump of white crab oil on the outside of the shell. He immediately put it in his mouth, swallowed it in one bite, and then peeled the shell and ate the meat.

"good to eat!"

"too delicious!"

Zhao Dahai kept nodding his head while eating, the taste of fresh orchid crab is really amazing.

"Hey!"

"Can an orchid crab worth a hundred dollars not be delicious?"

Zhong Cuihua looked at the orchid crab in her hand, feeling a little bit reluctant.

"what!"

"What do you want after it's all cooked? No one wants to sell it now!"

"It's not like eating every meal!"

Zhao Dahai smiled.Grandma Zhong Cuihua has been thrifty all her life.Now I have made money and made a lot of money, but the habits engraved in my bones are hard to change.

"Row!"

"You're right!"

"Eat it!"

Zhong Cuihua looked at the cooked orchid crabs in the basket, and now they really can't be sold, they can only be eaten.

Zhao Dahai ate three orchid crabs in a row. They were really delicious. He went to the kitchen to fill two bowls of rice, stir-fried a vegetable, and started to eat lunch seriously.

Three in the afternoon.

The sea is open, the sun above the head is very strong, and the blue water is as transparent as glass.

Zhong Shizhu stood in the cabin and looked around.

"Hey!"

"Why are there so many fishing boats here!"

Zhong Shizhu sighed, returned to the pier in the morning, sold the orchid crabs, ate something casually, didn't bother to take a bath, and immediately continued to go to sea, and rushed to the place where the orchid crabs were caught yesterday, good guy, all of them There are fishing boats one after another, all of which set nets to catch orchid crabs.

Zhong Shizhu knew that this would happen, but when he saw so many fishing boats crowded here, he felt a headache for a while.

"what!"

"Stone Pillar!"

"You, Lei Dayou, and Liu Bin have already made a lot of money. Could it be that you still think that you will be the only ones here to catch crabs?"

Zhong Shizhu turned his head and saw a familiar person from the next village talking to him loudly while smoking a cigarette.

"what!"

"Yes."

Zhong Shizhu laughed. He definitely hoped that no one else would come here to catch crabs, only himself, Liu Bin, and Lei Dayou, but this was impossible.Anyone who goes fishing at sea knows where to catch orchid crabs in this nearby area. There must be a lot of people here.

"What does it look like?"

"Do you want to let go of the net?"

Lei Dayou looked at the fishing boats around him, and then at the buoys of fishing nets that were floating on the sea surface.

"forget it!"

"There are too many crab nets here!"

"Where can I find a place to put it down? Even if I really find a place to put it down abruptly, how many orchid crabs can I catch? It's only twenty or thirty catties if it's exhausted."

Liu Bin shook his head.

"what!"

"Liu Bin."

"Since when have you been so demanding? Twenty or thirty catties of orchid crabs are not enough for you to make money!"

Zhong Shizhu looked at Liu Bin.

Liu Bin froze for a moment.Twenty or thirty catties of orchid crabs, especially the ones that I and Zhong Shizhu and Lei Dayou caught yesterday, can be sold for at least 300 yuan.The fishing boats of the few of us are not big, and we don’t travel very far. It’s good to have such a harvest, and we can earn 200 yuan after excluding the cost.

"Who told us to catch so many orchid crabs last night!?"

"More than 500 catties!"

"Add up more than 600 catties, and on average, everyone caught more than 500 catties!"

"How can you value these twenty or thirty catties now?"

Lei Dayou smiled, not to mention Liu Bin, he didn't even want to set the fishing net.

"what!"

"All right!"

"Then just don't let it go!"

Zhong Shizhu thought for a while and nodded. There are too many fishing nets here. If you put them down, you won't be able to catch many orchid crabs, and the second reason is that they are easily entangled with other fishermen's nets.

Zhong Shizhu, Liu Bin and Lei Da had a discussion, and put the net in another place, and if it could be caught, it would be caught, and if it couldn't be caught, it would be pulled down.

Zhao Dahai woke up and looked at the time. It was already four o'clock. He remembered the mayou fish and a few sea bass that he and his second grandfather Zhao Shi caught yesterday. , packed up, and rode a tricycle to the town and went directly to Liu Gang's restaurant.

Liu Gang was preparing dinner in the restaurant, when he saw Zhao Dahai through the glass, he walked out quickly.

"Yo!"

"This horse friend fish is really big!"

Liu Bin saw two horse fish in the refrigerator, one was small, but the big one was really big.

Zhao Dahai said that he went out to sea for a stroll yesterday, he didn't think about fishing, he just went around with Zhao Shi, tried a few rods, and only caught these few fish.

"This big one was caught by my second grandfather Zhao Shi. It's amazing that a 70-year-old man can catch such a fish."

Zhao Dahai patted the big horse friend fish in the refrigerator.

"Yo!"

"This is really incredible. I heard that this fish is very strong!"

Liu Gang was shocked. This was really incredible. Not to mention catching such a fish, it was not easy for him to lift the fish by himself.

"The big one costs 300 yuan a catty. The small one costs 180 yuan a catty."

"Sea bass costs 30 yuan a catty."

Liu Gang opened the price.

Zhao Dahai nodded, the price is good, especially the price of horse fish is quite good, sea bass is really worthless now.

"The big one is 29 catties and 730 tael, 560 yuan, the small one is 590 catties and 890 taels, [-] six, and the sea bass is [-] catties and [-] taels, [-] and [-] yuan. The total is [-] yuan. "

After Liu Gang had done the calculations, the accounts were settled, and the money was taken and handed to Zhao Dahai.

Zhao Dahai and Liu Gang talked for a while, installed a phone and asked for a number, so that they can be contacted conveniently when there is something to do next time.

Liu Gang was very happy. In this way, he could call from time to time to ask Zhao Dahai if he had caught any good goods, and if so, he would rush over there immediately.

"Boss Liu."

"The fishing moratorium is over. Has the price of fish dropped?"

Zhao Dahai direct Liu Gang, this matter is very important.

Liu Gang nodded. The common fish have all declined to varying degrees, and the high-grade fish, especially the grouper, have not declined or even increased.

Zhao Dahai frowned, this is not a good thing, but there is no way, the market is like this, chatted a few words, left the restaurant, bought some things in the town, did not go home immediately when he returned to Lengzi, arrived at Zhaoshi s home.

"Humph!"

"What are you doing here?"

Zhao Shi looked at the money Zhao Dahai took out, and his face darkened.

"Second grandpa."

"Let's not talk about the rules of going to sea!"

"I know you don't want the money, and it's because you take good care of me, a junior."

"I'll go and get the money for the groupers I caught when I went out to sea with you last time."

"But you have to accept the money for this trip."

"I didn't make money before, so I accepted it with the cheek. Now I make money and make so much money. It's a bit difficult for me to hold money like this."

"Second grandpa."

"This is the fish we caught and the money we made when we went out to sea together."

"Divide a share, what's wrong with having fun?"

"We will go out to sea together when we are free some other day, catch more fish, and make more money."

Zhao Dahai knew that Zhao Shi didn't want to take money, but he had to keep the money for this trip.

"OK OK!"

"What are you two so polite about?"

"The child Hai Hai is right. If you earn money, you can share it. Everyone is happy."

Seeing that Zhao Shi still wanted to refuse, Huang Jintao immediately spoke up. We are all a family, so it is not a good thing if you have to forcefully refuse.

"Second grandma."

"You're still sensible!"

"what!"

"I bought you mung bean cake from the town. It's freshly baked and absolutely delicious."

Zhao Dahai opened the bag containing the mung bean cake, took out a piece, broke it open and handed it to Huang Jintao.

"Hey!"

"I like to eat this thing."

Huang Jintao was very happy. He was getting older and had more money and less money. Zhao Dahai was able to remember what he liked to eat, and he was very happy to buy some.

Zhao Dahai chatted with Jintao for a while, and after seeing that it was almost time for dinner, he stood up and left.

"Humph!"

"Why did you take Dahai's money just now? What do we need this money for?"

Zhao Shi watched Zhao Dahai leave, and his face suddenly pulled down.

"Hey!"

"Why are you so stubborn, old man? I know you are thinking that it is not easy for Zhao Dahai to make money, and you want him to make more money."

"However, you have to think about it, Zhao Dahai is really making money now, this little money is really not important to him."

"If he insists on not saying anything about the money he earned from catching fish, and if he doesn't send it over at all, then wouldn't he have to take advantage of the elders!"

Huang Jintao knew what Zhao Shi was thinking.

"Yo!"

"Then is it possible to go out to sea with him and take a quick trip, if you don't catch fish, you can't make money, and I have to pay for gas?"

"Can Zhao Dahai want this money? He doesn't want this money. Why should I ask for a share of the money if he is fishing?"

Zhao Shi's neck stiffened.

"Haizhizi definitely doesn't want your money, but he doesn't want your money because he is filial to you."

"Didn't you just say that? If Dahai didn't make money at ordinary times and it was more difficult, it would be reasonable not to divide your money, but now he is making money and he is making a lot of money."

"If this fish doesn't share your money, he will definitely not be able to live with it."

Jintao shook her head.

Zhao Shi stared, wanted to say something but couldn't say it, the words made sense, so he just bowed his head, didn't say anything, and smoked.

Huang Jintao knew that Zhao Shi had listened to what he said, and put the mung bean cake in his hand to his mouth and began to eat it happily.

Zhao Dahai returned home and told his grandma Zhong Cuihua that he had given the money to his second grandfather Zhao Shi.

Zhong Cuihua thought for a while and nodded. This matter should be handled in this way. Today is different from the past. Zhao Dahai is really making a lot of money now. Naturally, the handling of things is different from last time. Human feelings must be handled well no matter when they are. Close relatives don't care.

Five in the morning.

Langtou Village Wharf.

The fishing moratorium is over, and the wharf has resumed its usual bustling activities, with fishing boats coming back one after another.

Zhao Dahai got on the speedboat, untied the cables, rested for a few days, and started to run out to sea today. The sea surface was blown by the sun and it was very cool.

Zhao Dahai's speedboat went faster and faster, heading straight for the fishing spot.
