Chapter 8

It's all right, don't panic, Lu Xiaolu adjusted his position to ensure that the fish was on the line of the hook and started reeling.

Seeing that it was about to arrive, the lure in his hand suddenly sank, the hook was bitten, and he was cut off halfway!
After the fish bit the hook, it began to struggle frantically, scurrying around in the water with the fishing line, and Lu Xiaolu was unambiguous, imitating others to catch snakeheaded fish. firm.

A large hook with barbs to ensure that the fish cannot escape.

But the fish had a lot of strength in the water, and Lu Xiaolu didn't have a serious meal for another day, and he didn't come up after pulling for nearly 5 minutes, and his face was flushed from holding back.

It was almost at the reef beach, so Lu Xiaolu could only hold the fishing rod in one hand and take off his shoes with the other to prevent the bottom from hanging. Suddenly, the fish made a strong effort, which made him stagger, and almost fell to the ground.

Lu Xiaolu is also excited, I still can't get you a fish?

I found a slightly flatter place, put my foot on the reef and started to frantically recover the reel.

The quality of the lure is still guaranteed. Under Lu Xiaolu's full fire, the fish finally revealed its true colors.

"Bass!" Lu Xiaolu laughed. Although he had never been to the beach, he had seen this fish in books.

Sea bass, also known as RB true perch, is distributed in the seawater and freshwater junctions of coastal waters and estuaries.

This thing has a pointed mouth, the lower lip is longer than the upper lip, as if the sky is covered by the sky, the back is blue-gray, the belly is white, and there are irregular black spots on the side of the body. It belongs to a white bass.

Thirty to forty centimeters long, about two or three catties.

Lu Xiaolu carried the bass in his hand, looked around only to realize that he didn't bring a bucket or anything.

It's broken, it's worthless if it's dead, that's why Lu Xiaolu didn't use the crayfish harpoon directly.

And seeing that it's getting late, I have to take the bus to go back, so I think it's better to call it a day.

After all, it was the first day, and besides, fishing was only a temporary situation for Lu Xiaolu. His goal was to use a large fishing boat to trawle nets, so that he could make money.

It's useless to think about it now, let's recall the crayfish.

Picking up the controller, Lu Xiaolu suddenly realized that the fish hadn't run away just now!
He hurriedly found a plastic bag beside him to put the perch away, and Luya made a second shot.

"嗖~噗通~" I threw it away again, and slowly reeled the reel. Unfortunately, no fish came out to cut the fish, and Lu Xiaolu was not disappointed. The bait slowly appeared in the sight of the crayfish, and the fish seemed to have found it too. Yes, after swimming around, he jumped on it suddenly.

Lu Xiaolu, who was looking at the screen, suddenly sank his hand, and the fish was hooked!

It was another tug-of-war between you and me, Lu Xiaolu was worried that the perch would die, so he tried his best to reel the reel, and stopped skating the fish.

Miraculously, it only took 3 minutes to pull the fish up this time.

Before he had time to appreciate it, Lu Xiaolu hurriedly called the crayfish back, took apart the lures and put them in the backpack, and ran back with the two fish.

The newly caught fish was still quite heavy, much heavier than the bass, causing Lu Xiaolu to limp when he walked.

"Yo, did you really catch a fish?"

"Seven-star perch, gentian spot? Yes, pretty boy, sell it to me." A fisherman wearing a straw hat came up to talk to him, and Lu Xiaolu recognized him, and he was among those who laughed at him just now.

After a pause, I don't know where there is a fish collector, and I have to catch the bus, so I might as well sell it to him.

"What price?" Lu Xiaolu didn't know how much this thing cost.

"Hey, this fish is a bit small, but I'll take it home and stew it for the children. It's ten yuan a catty for a sea bass, and eight yuan for a catty for this grouper. Let me use your scale, old man." He smiled, revealing a mouthful of big yellow teeth.

"Not for sale, goodbye." Lu Xiaolu turned his head and left. Although he didn't know how much it cost, he knew he was slaughtered just by the man's wretched smile.

"Little boy, don't be in a hurry to leave, we can discuss it." The middle-aged man spat, obviously not wanting the water fish from other places to escape.

However, Lu Xiaolu had had enough of him, and now he wouldn't believe him even if he offered 100 yuan a catty.

He picked up two more plastic bags at random, and simply took the two fish and boarded the car for the return journey.

Seeing that he was carrying a fishing rod and there were two big fish in his hand, the driver said in admiration: "Not bad, seven-star perch, gentian spot, steamed and braised in brown sauce are all good."

Lu Xiaolu's eyes rolled: "Master, this fish is about how much a catty, I can figure out if it's enough or not."

"Ham, fishing is not bad, but you're okay. The wild seven-star perch is more than 30 catties, and the gentian spot is 40 yuan per catty. Yours probably weighs five catties."

Lu Xiaolu was overjoyed, he had made a profit now, and he had to make a quick move later.

I finally arrived at the school gate, and I didn’t see a seafood store. I was too impulsive just now. If I can find a seafood store in Huangcuo, I can sell it, but the price is low.

Mainly because of that big yellow tooth.

Simply, Lu Xiaolu was heartbroken, went to the nearby grocery store to buy an electronic scale and an iron basin, got some water from someone else, and set up a stall directly at the school gate.

Xiamen University is also considered a scenic spot here, and the surrounding residents and tourists like to go in and play. It is evening again, when there are many people, and some people are selling socks, small accessories and so on.

"Liangzi, how do you sell this fish?" An aunt took her grandson for a walk and asked casually when she saw it.

Lu Xiaolu is an honest person, he will sell as much as the driver brother says.

"Purely wild, just caught from Huangcuo, 35 catties for sea bass, 40 catties for gentian spot."

"Tsk tsk tsk, it's a bit expensive." The aunt shook her cattail fan and said tsk tsk, looking at the fresh big fish and was reluctant to leave.

She was born and bred locally, wild and farmed, and she could tell that the price was really not expensive, and she just wanted to lower the price.

Before Lu Xiaolu had time to open his mouth, an old man wearing sandals next to him took out a handful of cash: "I want both of these, you call him handsome."

The aunt became impatient, and pulled the cattail fan: "What's the matter with you, do you understand that first come first come first?"

"Who are you to blame for thinking it's too expensive? My daughter-in-law is just pregnant, and I just took it back to replenish her body. What are you so dumb about, pretty boy, hurry up and weigh it!"

"Oh!" Lu Xiaolu was a little taken aback, and hurriedly began to weigh the fish.

"3.2 catties of perch, 5.6 catties of grouper, how much is it?" Lu Xiaolu scratched his head and scratched his head, sweating.

"Bass 112, grouper 224, a total of 336 yuan." A female voice rang out, and her Chinese was still a bit substandard. He looked up, and a girl who was very delicately dressed smiled at him, showing two dimples, and beckoned him Call the calculator on your phone.

Lu Xiaolu blushed instantly, he didn't know where to put his hands, and the film was floating on his mouth.

"Huh? Three three hundred three. 36, oh."

That aunt quit, not to Lu Xiaolu, but to the uncle: "What are you talking about? You mean I can't afford it? Who do you look down on you!"

"I don't want to talk to you, young man, here's the money, three hundred and four."
