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

Chapter 456 Be careful not to hurt your feelings

"Zhao Dahai!"

“The fish maw of this time is much better than the one from the last trip!”

"The bigger, the better!"

When Sun Er saw Zhao Dahai coming back, he immediately handed it over with isinglass in his hand.

Zhao Dahai nodded while looking at the isinglass. The mullet fish caught this time was bigger and the quality was indeed better.

"Hey!"

"This is really good stuff!"

"It's really difficult!"

Sun Er looked at the isinglass in Zhao Dahai's hand.

In the early years when I was young, it was not difficult to find isinglass of this quality. In the past ten or eight years, there have been fewer and fewer big fish in the sea, and there are even fewer fish suitable for drying isinglass. Good isinglass Fewer and fewer.

The best thing I have seen in the past few years is Zhao Dahai's big eel fish that weighed more than [-] kilograms and was dried. This time, these big [-]-[-] kilogram eel fish that were dried out are indeed not as good as the ones that weighed more than [-] kilograms. The fish weighed [-] to [-] kilograms, which was already very good. It was a level above the [-] or [-] kilograms of dry-dried eel fish from the previous trip.

Sun Er opened the box he brought. Each piece of isinglass had its own bag. He took them all out, a total of 46 pieces.

Sun Er reminded Zhao Dahai that he had to pay attention to drying such good things. The weather in the past two days was not good, and the waves were too big to go out to the sea, but the sea breeze was strong and dry, so it was very suitable for drying.

Zhao Dahai immediately took the rack and hung up all the isinglass to dry. After a while, a small truck drove over, pulling the dried fish of the river owl. They all unloaded it and started drying it all again.

Zhao Dahai paid and sent Sun Er away. When he turned around, his grandma Zhong Cuihua was looking at the isinglass that was being dried.

"grandmother!"

"Things can't fly here! There's no need to keep watching!"

Zhao Dahai walked to the shelf with dried fish and saw 45 fish at a glance. Each one was a big fish weighing seventy or eighty kilograms. It was very spectacular.

"What do you know? You have to deal with this thing carefully!"

"Do you have to be careful about what you put in your mouth?"

Zhong Cuihua glared at Zhao Dahai.

Zhao Dahai was happy. It was not that he had to be careful about what he put into his mouth. The important thing was that his future granddaughter-in-law had to be careful about what she put into her stomach.

Zhao Dahai thought of the dried fish from the isinglass that he had dried on his last trip. The wind was strong today, it was very dry, and there was not much sun. This was the best weather for drying the dried fish, so he moved them all out and hung them on the shelves.

"grandmother!"

“There’s no need to keep so much of the dried owl, how about selling some?”

Zhao Dahai had a headache.The isinglass from the eel fish is a good thing and must be kept. However, the dried fish from the eel fish can be preserved for a long time after being pickled into salted fish, but we can’t eat so much of it.

Zhong Cuihua thought for a while and nodded. Just leave a few fish.

"Does anyone want this? Can you sell it at a price?"

Zhong Cuihua looked at the dried giant owl hanging on the shelf and was reluctant to sell it if the price was too low.

Zhao Dahai is not worried at all. There is no need to worry about selling the dried fish, especially the dried fish of this big fish, and the price must be very good.

Zhao Dahai called Wu Weimin. Wu Weimin immediately said to take them all. He may not have time today, but he will come over tomorrow and must keep them.

After Zhao Dahai finished the phone call, he picked out the four largest fish from the shelf, got on his tricycle, and gave one to each of his second grandfather Zhao Shi, Zhong Shizhu, Liu Bin and Lei Da. They were definitely the most valuable fish. It's fish maw. These fish meats are also very good. It's impossible to sell them at extremely high prices, but this big one can easily be sold for a hundred or dozens of yuan per catty.A fish weighing several dozen kilograms is worth three to four thousand yuan.

After Zhao Dahai finished delivering the fish, he returned home and remembered what he and Ding Xiaoxiang had discussed about buying a speedboat, and told his grandmother Zhong Cuihua.

"Yo!"

"Why?"

"Didn't you say that your speedboat is the best speedboat for offshore fishing in the surrounding villages and towns?"

"Why do you need to change it?"

Zhong Cuihua was a little confused. She didn't know why Zhao Dahai suddenly wanted to change to a speedboat. The current speedboat had not been bought for a long time and he had made a lot of money. If it was enough, there was no need to replace it with a new one. Changing the boat would cost a lot of money.

Zhao Dahai said that he would go to the town today, sell out the sea bass, and then go find Ding Xiaoxiang, who came up with the idea.

"Yo!"

"Did Xiaoxiang say you want to change it?"

"Then change!"

Zhong Cuihua nodded in agreement.

"grandmother!"

"Are you too biased? I said I wanted to change ships. You had to think carefully about what I said. As soon as I said it was Ding Xiaoxiang who made the decision, you agreed immediately!"

Zhao Dahai was a little dumbfounded. Grandma Zhong Cuihua heard that it was Ding Xiaoxiang's idea and immediately agreed without asking why she wanted to change.

"Does this need to be said? I think Xiaoxiang is smart."

"There must be a reason why I said I wanted to change."

"I'm so old, how can I think of something so thoughtful?"

"Can't Ding Xiaoxiang just make up her mind?"

Zhong Cuihua tidied the isinglass hanging on the shelf.

"grandmother!"

"It might cost 100 million to get a bigger speedboat!"

"This is a lot of money from the boss!"

"Don't you feel bad?"

Zhao Dahai deliberately teased his grandma Zhong Cuihua.

"One million? Can't you make this money?"

"How much money have you made from running deep sea in the past two days? Isn't it enough?"

"It's not like Ding Xiaoxiang doesn't know how much money you make!"

"I must have bought such a big speedboat. I can make money back and make more money!"

Zhong Cuihua didn't care about spending 100 million.People who go fishing at sea spend their money on fishing boats or fishing nets.I never think about how much I spend, I just think about whether I can make back the money I spent or whether I can make more.

Zhong Cuihua would usually consider these things carefully, but now that she has Ding Xiaoxiang, she no longer cares about these things.

Zhao Dahai really didn't know what to say now.In grandma Zhong Cuihua's eyes, she is a silly boy, while Ding Xiaoxiang is a very smart person.

You have to think carefully about what you say, and don't care about anything Ding Xiaoxiang does.

Zhao Dahai told grandma Zhong Cuihua and Ding Xiaoxiang that they wanted to buy a bigger speedboat. The main reason was not that they could make more money, but that bigger speedboats were safer.

When Zhong Cuihua heard this, she immediately said to hurry up and buy the best one. Not to mention 100 million, she would have to spend 300 to [-] million.

Zhao Dahai said that he had asked Ding Xiaoxiang's second uncle to pay attention to this matter, and he would take it down if he had any clues.

Zhao Dahai did nothing else all afternoon and evening. He concentrated on drying fishing rods and isinglass and chatting with his grandma.Not long after Zhao Dahai finished dinner, Wu Weimin and someone from his company drove over in a truck.

Wu Wei was very happy. These dried fish and fish were top quality. Looking at his private restaurant, he didn’t have to worry about dried fish for a while. He cut the fish into pieces, added a few pieces of pork belly, and put something else in it. The braised pork is very popular.

Zhao Dahai took out the weighing process and weighed [-] kilograms one by one.

Wu Weimin quoted a currency price of 120 yuan per pound, for a total of 49 yuan.

Wu Weimin looked at the orange isinglass drying next to him.This is the most valuable part of a fish.

Zhao Dahai looked at Wu Weimin's greedy eyes and joked that he should exercise better and go fishing more next time.

"what!"

"Zhao Dahai!"

"Actually, it's all our fault. Otherwise, we would have caught a lot of fish!"

Wu Weimin sighed helplessly.Zhao Dahai found out the water layer where the fish shoal was. He could catch it as long as he had hands. He, Gao Zhicheng, Xu Yunjiang, and Lin Zuhua didn't have enough physical strength to catch much.

"correct!"

"You can't go to sea for these two days, right?"

Wu Weimin no longer thinks about the owl, and will definitely catch more the next time he has a chance to go to sea.Tuna or something like that is just a taste test, but of no use. The isinglass produced by drying the maw of the catfish is a good thing.

Zhao Dahai told Wu Weimin that he drove a speedboat out to explore the spot early this morning. Gao Zhicheng went out to sea with two friends. Halfway through, he found that the wind and waves were relatively strong, so he changed places to fish for sea bass. After fishing, The bass thought about trying to see if there were horsetail fish, or trying to fish for grouper somewhere else, but the waves were really too big, so I had to give up.

"Can I just stay at home these days?"

Wu Weimin turned his head and looked in the direction of the pier. It was already dark. Normally, the lights of many fishing boats could be seen on the entire sea, but now they were almost invisible. There were not many fishing boats going out to sea.

Zhao Dahai nodded helplessly. People who go fishing have to watch the weather for food. If the weather is bad, they can only stay at home.

Wu Weimin saw that all the dried fish had been loaded onto the truck. He made an appointment to go fishing together if he had time, got in the car and left.

Zhao Dahai walked back to the yard and closed the door. The weather was bad and he couldn't go to sea. He had to sleep well and have a good rest.

Shijiao Village.

There is a courtyard at the east end.

Shi Jiehua, Shi Guangming and Shi Zhong gathered around a table to eat, drink and chat.

"grandfather!"

"Brother Dahai is really amazing!"

“I caught so many fish during these two fishing trips!”

"This is already the number one fishing expert in our area."

Shi Zhongwei took a bite of chicken drumsticks and talked about the fish caught by Zhao Dahai in the past two days. He was very happy. He rested at home for two days. As soon as he went out, everyone was asking about Zhao Dahai's fishing.

"dad!"

"What do you think of this? Can it be done?"

Shi Jiehua ignored Shi Zhongwei's words. Zhao Dahai was a master of fishing, especially the number one master of fishing in this nearby area?Isn't this obvious?Needless to say, what he is currently concerned about is his cooperation with Zhao Dahai.

"can!"

"One hundred percent possible!"

"There have been a lot of people asking you to book fishing spots in the past few days, right?"

Shi Guangming took a sip of wine and took a puff from the hookah placed next to him.

"Ok!"

"A lot!"

“I wish our fishing boat had a hundred fishing positions!”

Shi Jiehua was very helpless.The last time Zhao Dahai went out to sea with his fishing boat, many people had called to reserve fishing spots, and this trip was even more extraordinary.In the past two days, more than 150 people have come to our door directly, and even more have called. The total number of people before and after is no less than [-], and there will be more in the future.

The fishing boat has 22 fishing positions, and one trip to sea lasts for a month. In addition to the preparation and rest time before and after each trip, including bad weather, etc., it takes seven trips and eight trips in a year. Now these people have already Enough to run for a year.

"Can you just take the money now and book a fishing spot in a few months?"

Shi Guangming reminded Shi Jiehua not to do this.

"dad!"

"do not worry!"

"I'm not a young boy. Can't you understand the importance of this?"

"I only took a deposit and booked the next sailing and the next two sailings."

“It’s definitely not possible to decide on a longer period of time!”

Shi Jiehuasheng took a shrimp and peeled it.There is nothing wrong with collecting a deposit and setting a shipping date five or six months later.Many fishing boats do this kind of thing, but my family never does this kind of thing.

Some of these people who set fishing spots and go fishing at sea, like Wu Weimin, just want to catch big fish, but more of them want to catch enough fish to make money to support their families.

Don’t look at the fact that your own fishing boat is very popular during this period. There are many people who want to go to sea with the boat. But if you can’t catch too many fish in the next two or three trips, the number of people who want to go to sea with the boat will decrease. .

It only takes two trips to collect the deposit. If the collection time is too long, those who paid the deposit may regret it.It is against the rules to return the deposit, and if the deposit is not returned, these people have objections in their hearts.

There is no shortage of these people to reserve fishing spots on my fishing boat, especially now that Zhao Dahai has gone out to sea twice and caught so many fish. People are queuing up to go out to sea. There is no need to do such a thankless job. thing.

"Zhao Dahai's reputation for being able to help other people catch more fish has spread."

"In the past few days, I and several old men in the village, including several old men from other villages, have been talking about this matter over meals and tea."

"Once Zhao Dahai agrees, you can go ahead and prepare for this matter."

Shi Guangming has been thinking about this idea that Shi Zhongwei came up with accidentally for the past two days.

"There are some things you can do in advance."

"Once Zhao Dahai agrees to cooperate, the fishing position fee will definitely have to be raised. It will no longer be the current 2 yuan."

"The other one is a fishing boat that goes out to sea. It can't be just one of ours."

"Three, four or even five or six ships are not a problem. Only in this way can we make more money."

"The most important thing is how much money each fishing position will cost once Zhao Dahai cooperates with us."

Shi Guangming reminded Shi Jiehua that he must think about these things clearly. If he doesn't think about these things clearly, it is very easy for various things to happen, hurting feelings and friendship.

"dad!"

"I've been thinking about this for the past two days. I have an idea, but I'm a little unsure."

"Can you see if it looks like this?"

Shi Jiehua explained his thoughts in detail. After speaking, he looked at Shi Guangming. I have seen too many people and things in my life. I have to listen carefully to opinions on such things.
