Chapter 525: Hitting the water with a wooden stick

Those dolphins were also very flexible. Seeing so many fishing boats surrounding them, they didn't care about those fish pods anymore. After jumping on the sea surface and calling a few times, they dived to the bottom of the water.

Ye Yaodong and the others only cast one more net than others, but the two nets cast later didn't have as much as the first net just now.

There weren't many fish in the sea, and those that should run had also run, but there were still crowded fishing boats on the sea surface, and there were even fishing boats rushing over in the distance?

After he laughed twice, he hurriedly drove the boat out of the pile of boats and drove toward the shore.

Ye Fu was pouring out the fish cargo in the fishing net. Seeing that there were still boats coming, someone shouted at him: "Are there any fish?"

He smiled and said: "There is soup!"

"So fast, didn't you say the dolphins were driving the fish pod? Were they all caught up by you? Oh my, you made a fortune again?"

"Made a fortune my ass. The trawling today dragged less than two baskets of fish in total, and they were all worthless. I almost didn't earn back the fuel money, so I hurried back early to save fuel on the sea. Just now, I took the opportunity to scoop two or three nets. Leaving, leaving... you guys go over now and there won't even be a hair."

Ye Yaodong saw his father accelerate and leave after finishing speaking, leaving behind a group of people discussing.

After returning to the shore, they knew that everyone had returned very early today, because the harvest was very miserable, and there was no need to continue to waste time on the sea.

And they had two supplements of fish pods, so the harvest was considered quite good now.

People in the crowd were also saying that their harvest was good today. Fishing boats generally returned early today, and only a few were still outside, all because there was no cargo, so they docked early. Only scattered two or three boats had a good harvest.

"You scooped a lot from that wave of fish pods just now, right?"

"That pod of fish was still surrounding their boat, it wasn't a cool scoop..."

"Ah yes yes yes, those dolphins were originally driving the fish pod to the outer sea, how did they turn around and drive the fish pod to your boat side?"

"Yes, how did those dolphins drive the fish pod to your side? Is there any trick in this?"

"Eh? My boat seemed to have just driven from beside them, I seemed to see Adong holding two wooden sticks hitting the water surface? Is there any saying in this?"

"Yes yes yes, is there any saying? Otherwise, how did those dolphins drive the fish pod and turn around?"

They sorted the cargo and weighed it, which took a long time, and they had to wait for Acai to calculate the account, which also took a long time. As a result, they didn't have time to go home, and were just blocked by people who had just returned from the sea, all surrounding them and asking questions.

"Tell us, tell everyone as fellow villagers, you won't lose anything by saying it, everyone is making a living on the sea..."

"Yes, anyway, everyone saw it, tell us..."

Seeing so many people curiously surrounding them, Ye Yaodong simply said generously: "There is a saying, I heard that hitting the water with a wooden stick can attract dolphins, because the sound of hitting the water with a wooden stick is very similar to the sound made by a fish that dolphins like to eat most."

"In the future, if you find a fish pod, just hit the water surface like this. If there are dolphins nearby, they will run over directly, and they also like to drive fish pods. After finding a fish pod, they will incidentally help us drive the fish pod over."

"Is that so? No wonder, I said how did the dolphins suddenly turn around?"

"So that's how it is... No wonder they all surrounded your boat..."

"Understood, understood, learned it this time. In the future, if you encounter a fish pod, do this, to save the fish pod from running away directly."

"Adong is becoming more and more promising, and he knows more and more. We old fishermen don't know as much as you. Your father can enjoy happiness in the future. The three brothers are all so promising, all have their own boats, and are so capable of earning money..."

"Yes, we have been at sea for decades, and we don't know as much as he does. I underestimated him before..."

"Ye Laosan is blessed. In the future, when he is old, he will have three sons to support him, and he won't have to worry about food and drink..."

"Yes, how can he be so good at giving birth and teaching? The three sons are all promising. I heard a while ago that each of them earned a ten-thousand-yuan household, is that true?"

"That's stronger than the ten-thousand-yuan household who raised pigs in the newspaper last year. People raised pigs for a whole year and only earned ten thousand yuan, you earned it in two months, oh my... you really made a fortune..."

Everyone became more excited as they talked, as if they were the ones earning money.

Although they have a saying locally that everyone picks up firewood and the flames are high, people say you have good luck~ earning money~ having money~ and so on. The more you say it, the more prosperous your luck will be, and the more money you will have, which is equivalent to singing high for you.

However, it was too exaggerated to spread, and there were many people with red-eye disease. I didn't know which bastard wrote the report letter I received before. Everyone can sing high, but he has to be low-key.

Ye Yaodong hurriedly explained: "Where is there so much, it's exaggerated. It's as if there is no expense. When you are away from home, where is it as convenient and easy as at home? When you are outside, everything needs to be taken care of, everything needs money, spending money is like flowing water. Eating and drinking at home doesn't cost money, can eating and drinking outside not cost money?"

"Although I earn a lot, I admit it, but I also spend a lot. Which one of the wages and fuel money is not a big head? It's really not as exaggerated as the rumors outside..."

Ye Fu also hurriedly said: "The expenses outside are very high, the workers' wages are high, and we spent one or two thousand in these two months outside. Also, my eldest and second son are partners in a boat, and the two of them split it in half, so there is not much, just a little bit stronger than trawling at home."

"That's also earning big money. Adong is now the role model for all the young men in the village, and everyone praises you every day."

"Yes, my kid is also lazy, and he doesn't say to learn from you. He is still lazy until now, and he hasn't made any progress. He wants to marry a wife but it's not easy to marry. The matchmaker introduced, either lame, or harelip, or full of pockmarks, none of them look decent..."

Ye Yaodong's mouth couldn't help twitching. Compare him with a short winter melon?

Does he not know their son?

He looks ugly, short and fat, and people call him short winter melon. If he is diligent and willing to work, he can still find a decent wife. He has no capital, no strengths, a bunch of problems, what can his wife look like? Can she compare with him?

Fortunately, there are also people who know goods in the crowd. Without him refuting, someone came out.

"Don't take your son out to compare with Adong. At least he looks good and is promising now. If your son is as capable of earning money as he is, what kind of wife can't he find? You should marry a wife for your son first before talking? Don't dislike the girl for having problems, as long as she can give birth and pass on the family line..."

"That is to say, what pot matches what lid, turtle matches turtle..."

"I bah, what are you talking about? My son has hands and feet, why should he find someone with problems? What if he gives birth to a child who is also lame, pockmarked, or harelip?"

"This won't be hereditary. If this is hereditary for generations, then that's it?"

"Then you have to find a decent one..."

"Hehe~ anyway, it's the same after turning off the lights..."

Listening to everyone talking and talking, Ye Yaodong slipped out of the crowd.

"This talk is endless, where did the ten-thousand-yuan household come from for them to calculate?"

Ye Fu whispered: "But your family property added up is indeed a ten-thousand-yuan household."

"There are quite a few invisible ten-thousand-yuan households in our village, and I'm not the only one. Be low-key. Besides, I don't have ten thousand yuan in cash. I have to add up all the assets."

"Quite a few? Who are they?"

Ye Yaodong glanced at his father. "Think for yourself!"

In this day and age, although it is not easy to earn ten thousand yuan, it is not too rare. It's just that some people are better at hiding it, are more low-key, and know that they cannot take the limelight.

And some people have a little achievement, want to hear praise, and want everyone to know.

"Forget it, it's none of our business. You should think about whether to engage in sticky nets? The weather is getting colder day by day, and it is often windy. There will be less time to go out to sea in the future. You look at it."

"Engage, one day out to sea is one day, at least it can subsidize some household expenses, earn a bite to eat. Last year, using sticky nets also earned quite well, but it is not convenient to borrow machines from Lin Shu this year. Let's use manpower to pull and see first."

Ye Fu nodded. "I also heard him mention it when I was drinking with Lin Shu a while ago, saying that trawling in winter last year earned average, and he plans to engage in more sticky nets this winter."

"Mm, when I go back later, I will find someone to order dozens of sticky nets. The quantity is too small, there is no work to do. If you want to do it, do more."

"You look at it yourself." Ye Fu is also quite at ease with him now.

Although the longline fishing didn't have many empty hooks today, the fish hanging under the main line pulled up were as many as a curtain, but most of the fish caught were mackerel and other fish that were not very valuable.

The fish pod driven by dolphins has a greater difference in size, some are larger, some are pitifully small, and a large part of them are sardines, anchovies, and Balang fish.

Some fish are worth some money, and some are not worth money. Although the quantity is not small, it only sold for more than 40 yuan today.

This is still piled up by quantity. Recently, there are fewer valuable goods, and he also left 200 jin of Balang fish ready to take back to dry fish.

The northwest wind blowing these days is quite suitable for drying fish. The Balang fish at home is still dried last year, and it has already bottomed out. Their family will tear the meat of two Balang fish and put it in when cooking noodles. This is also their unique way of cooking for people by the sea.

"Remember to call my mother to come over and help kill the fish when we go back later."

"Mm."

Looking at the three full baskets of fish on the cart, no wonder Aqing always says that she can kill all the fish that ordinary people should kill in a lifetime in one day.

His mother is happy to dry so many fish. People by the sea are not happy without fish, and people who have come from that era basically have some hamster attributes. ===== CHAPTER 526 =====
