Chapter 70: Net Explosion

When the red sun hung high in the sky, Ye Fu looked at the time and thought it was about time, so he went to lift the second net.

Going to the tail slipway, he found that this net seemed to have more goods, and dragging it was more laborious. Ye Fu shouted at Ye Yaodong, "Hurry and come help!"

Father and son worked together to drag the net up from the tail slipway, "Mom, it's really laborious, this net is still skate, did we enter a school of skate and can't get out?"

"Luck is not bad, exploded the net again, today this sea area is all skate." Ye Fu said happily.

This school of fish is in groups, catching one net is much better than those scattered shrimp and crabs.

Ye Yaodong also laughed until his teeth couldn't be seen, "This net is more, we are going to make a fortune today, and there are two Chinese fan-tailed skates, this big blue shark is also not small, it's still moving, it's also forty or fifty jin."

The blue shark is known as the most beautiful shark in the sea, looking extremely handsome. Now there are still many in the sea. After 40 years, this fish will also be listed as an endangered species, and many countries are fishing for blue sharks, especially Japan.

"Mm, it can also sell for a few yuan."

The value of shark meat is very low, what has value is the fin part of the shark, but for people like them now who are short of materials, it is also a big piece of fish meat that can be eaten.

He was a bit proud, "Just say my luck is good, these two nets sell for 50 yuan, right?"

Luck is something mysterious. If you are happy every day and say your luck is good, maybe your luck will really be very good. If you sing bad luck every day, bad luck might really accompany you all the time.

"Mm, the harvest of these two nets is very good, it's worth a worker's monthly salary. Today we can still hit three more nets, you go drive the boat and cast the net, leave this to me."

Ye Fu was also very satisfied, these two nets were worth two trips they had come out a few days ago.

In his heart, he couldn't help but think that his third son's luck was really quite good recently, maybe it was because he was a newcomer. Just take advantage of his prosperous luck, let him hit a few more nets, and looking at him, he still has quite a talent for fishing, not needing much teaching to look like he knows what he's doing.

If he can keep being this diligent and go out to sea after the family is divided, the two old people don't have to worry about him starving to death.

Finally straightened out a little bit.

Ye Yaodong continued to cast the third net. The harvest of the third net was not as good as the first two, and the third net had no skate. I don't know if they ran away, or if they were caught by them, but it was all Japanese horse mackerel! Small ones, actually dragged more than a hundred jin!

But this fish is extremely cheap!

"Fuck, why is it Japanese horse mackerel? Does this fish have five cents a jin?"

"Three cents acquisition, right!"

Ye Fu didn't have much regret either. Fishing is also a matter of luck. How can every net explode? The value of this net is not much different from the harvest of their normal net.

And although this fish is cheap, it tastes very good when dried into fish or pickled salted fish, and their family likes it.

Ye Yaodong's food taste is also relatively low. Ordinary people scoff at this fish, but he thinks there are benefits to coarse meat. After long boiling, the Japanese horse mackerel has firm texture and deep taste, chewing it is especially strong, it's just that the selling price is too cheap.

If you spend money to buy it, you might not think so, you might directly call it a big bargain.

"Since the first two nets exploded, let's just leave this net to dry, or pickle a part, anyway it won't go bad, the house still needs to be built for a few months. After the typhoon, there is nothing to eat at home, just right to hoard a little, in case we encounter typhoons one after another, the family won't be afraid of having nothing to eat."

It's very cost-effective to leave some of this cheap fish for yourself to eat or as dishes for workers.

"Crow mouth! Where are there typhoons blowing every day," Ye Fu glared at him, "Let's see, let's see how the harvest of the next few nets is?"

"Definitely won't be bad!"

"After picking these, go eat first, and continue to cast the net after eating."

The rice and dishes prepared by Ye Mu in the early morning were cold to the bone by now. Fortunately, it was summer, so there was no need to eat hot food, and there was no oil in it.

Their meals were very simple, a bowl of clams, a bowl of stir-fried green vegetables. No way, they hadn't been out to sea for a few days, and there were only green vegetables and the clams picked yesterday at home, even the dried fish had been eaten up.

Yesterday, the seafood they picked while scouring the sea that could be sold was sold, and what couldn't be sold was only enough for them to eat for one meal. After all, there were 9 adults and 8 children at home, and the ingredients consumed every day were not small.

It was Ye Mu who was calculating carefully, cooking sweet potato porridge every day, so the grain was enough to eat.

Of course, the workers were doing physical labor, so they couldn't let people eat sweet potato porridge. Ye Mu cooked white rice, and the family ate sweet potato porridge at night.

When they went out to sea, it was also white rice. After all, they only ate one meal at sea, and ate one meal before going out to sea at night, which was until now.

After eating the rice and dishes clean, Ye Yaodong ran to drive the boat and cast the net again. Ye Fu was satisfied when he saw it, a bit of color!

Actually, Ye Yaodong still quite liked fishing at sea. Every time he lifted the net, he felt like opening a blind box. You couldn't imagine what kind of fish was inside, good goods or miscellaneous fish. If there were big goods, it goes without saying how happy he was.

At this time, people scouring the sea were for a living, while many modern people scouring the sea were because it was interesting, and there was also the satisfaction of the harvest. Buying, everyone can afford it.

Ye Fu saw that Ye Yaodong dragged the first two nets like he knew what he was doing, and the boat was driven very well. When the fourth net went down, Ye Fu didn't care much, only told him to be careful and not touch the reef, and closed his eyes to take a nap.

Today's harvest was already enough, he didn't mind letting go and letting the third son come. Looking at it, he learned faster than the eldest and second.

Ye Yaodong was still very serious about driving the boat. Looking at the time, he called his father who was dozing off to prepare to lift the net.

"Dad, this net looks like it's not small!"

Father and son pulled a bit laboriously.

"Mm, let's pull it up first to see what's inside."

When the two worked together to pull the whole fishing net onto the boat, they also saw, "Fuck, it's still skate, today we poked a skate nest! Three out of four nets are skate."

"Skate is skate, as long as there are goods." Ye Fu said happily. The quantity of this net was more than the first two nets, and it exploded the net again.

Ye Yaodong was also numb from picking. Today, so many skates were in this sea area, which could be considered making a fortune.

"Today, even crabs and mantis shrimp don't have much. For the last net, do you want to run further away and change a place? I feel like this area is all skate, it should have been caught by us almost."

Ye Fu rolled his eyes at him, "What do you want so many types for? As long as there are goods to sell for money, continue to trawl in this area, see if we can trawl another net of skate!"

"Alright, whatever you say!" It's not guaranteed that there are still skates that haven't been caught.

But the last net was beyond the expectations of the father and son. There was no skate, it was all swimming crabs, mantis shrimp, and miscellaneous fish. Adding them up, there were thirty or forty jin in one net.

The father and son were not too disappointed. This could also be considered a normal net of goods for trawling.

Just didn't expect, when the net was untied and poured out, there were actually rare goods!

"Fuck, red grouper, this net actually has big red grouper!"
