"This fish is worthless!" Ye Chenghai had no interest in this fish, it was so small.
"It's not valuable, but it can be used to make fish sauce. The fish sauce made from anchovies is salty, fresh, and delicious. It's perfect for dipping taro."
Fish sauce is a very popular local condiment and an ancient condiment in coastal areas. Whether it is Chaozhou cuisine, Fujian cuisine or Southeast Asian cuisine, fish sauce is an essential condiment.
If he hadn't thought about catching them back to make fish sauce, he wouldn't have bothered to catch these worthless fish, some of which were no longer as long as his palm.
Fortunately, the fish came rushing to gather, so he didn't need to put in any effort. He could just catch a net full of fish.
"Show the flashlight better and don't wander around. Just shine it on the sea in front of me and they will swim over by themselves."
"Oh." Ye Chenghai's flashlight that was shining everywhere was focused in front of Ye Yaodong again.
Just because he's not interested doesn't mean that Lin Guangyuan isn't interested either.
Mountain people find everything strange when they look at the seashore. The schools of fish rushing to land have always attracted his attention and made him feel like a cat is scratching his head.
"Sister-in-law, are you tired? Are your hands sore? Let me help you. Take a rest. Don't be too tired..."
"Hahaha~ You have never seen a fish before~" Ye Chenghai laughed at the side.
"Bullshit, me"
Ye Yaodong glanced at him speechlessly, "If you want to work so much, then you can do it!"
It just so happens that he doesn’t want to do it anymore, it’s a waste of money!
Waist strength must be used in key areas!
"Okay!"
Lin Guangyuan excitedly rolled up his trousers, ran over to take the handmade net from his hand, and grabbed the opening of the sack, fished it out with one hand, and opened the sack with the other.
"Wow, you caught so much in just a short time?"
"There's more over there. Ah Hai, please come closer. You two cooperate, and I'll go to the reef and walk around again."
"Being the hands-off shopkeeper again..." Ye Chenghai muttered.
Ye Yaodong casually hit him on the head again with Wu Geng, "Why do you have so many opinions? You don't want the pocket money?"
"Hmph~"
The tide had just gone out and there were still some things to pick up. Ye Yaodong swung their bucket around the reef and saw a large eel under a big rock. It looked about five or six kilograms and was a bit ferocious.
When he took the tongs to pinch them, he opened his mouth wide and showed his sharp teeth, biting his tongs.
You know, his fire tongs were opened by him, and its mouth could be opened to swallow a moray eel as big as itself.
He opened the tongs a little harder, and its mouth was also stretched wide.
Ye Yaodong raised the tongs and lifted it into the air. Its tail kept swinging and struggling, but its mouth was stretched too wide and was stuck by the tongs, unable to take it back.
He held the bucket in one hand to catch it, closed the fire tongs in the other hand, and shook it twice before throwing it into the bucket.
Even so, it still raised its head and wanted to bite, but the height of the bucket made it unable to reach it, so it could only coil it there.
"The harvest is good, and I can take it back to breed again."
Thinking of Ye Xiaoxi's chubby little face, how eager he was when feeding, and the squeaking sound, he couldn't help but smile.
Of course, a baby must be white and fat to be cute.
Eel stewed in wine goes well with milk, and I have been making seabass soup every day lately, which is a good change.
He continued to wander around, and the headlamp was still very convenient. He didn't need to free his hands to take it. He could shine wherever he wanted. No, he found another big blue crab in a crack in the rocks.
Pick it up with fire tongs and take a look, oh, it’s still a female red crab!
You can stew rice wine with milk again.
Ah Qing was born at the right time and was luckier than the previous two. She had endless good food to eat every day.
She will have to have a sterilization after the end of confinement. This is her last confinement, so she needs to take good care of herself to avoid any sequelae. In her last life, she did not have intestinal cancer.
Thinking of this, he felt a little uncomfortable.
Ye Yaodong was searching and thinking that he would really have to go to sea tomorrow to catch some sea cucumbers and get some abalone to make soup for her to replenish her body.
He was thinking about something and almost missed a big item!
"Holy crap, there's even a big yellow croaker!"
His eyes widened and he saw that in a grooved ditch surrounded by two rocks, there was a golden yellow croaker that had been stranded and was swimming in the ditch!
He was just thinking about something, and kept shining his headlight in front of him. He didn't look carefully around the reef, and almost ignored it.
It was because he heard the sound of "Cuckoo" that he stopped in confusion and looked around. Then, out of the corner of his eye, he caught sight of a golden light, and that's when he discovered it.
The large yellow croaker can make sounds.
With just that small pool of water, the fish probably would have burped and returned to the sea before the tide came in. Fortunately, he found it.
Only large yellow croakers are golden in color at night, so large yellow croakers are generally caught at night.
Its fishing floods are divided into spring and autumn. The spring flood usually occurs from April to June, and the fishing grounds are concentrated in spawning areas in the coastal areas of Jiangsu, Zhejiang, and Fujian. The autumn flood forms in the northern sea area of ​​​​Zhejiang between September and October.
"Ye Chenghai, bring the other bucket."
This big yellow croaker deserves an independent luxury single room!
"Oh, here we come." Ye Chenghai handed the flashlight to Lin Guangyuan and ran over again carrying a bucket, "Uncle Third, what good thing did you find again? Isn't one bucket enough?"
Ye Yaodong grinned and said: "For more than three kilograms of large yellow croaker, your pocket money will be doubled tomorrow!"
"Wow~ Really? Oh my god, she's so beautiful~ She's so golden!"
Ye Yaodong went to catch the big yellow croaker with both hands, but it was so slippery that it slipped into the puddle again, splashing water on his face. He wiped it with his sleeve, cursed, and continued to catch it.
"Hand over your bucket and take it."
After catching it, he threw it directly into the bucket, and then watched it jump for a while before it stopped struggling. A large yellow croaker usually dies when it reaches the shore.
"Uncle Third, can this fish be sold for a lot of money?"
"Of course, the harvest at night is good! There are crabs, sandworms, anchovies, and now a large eel and a large yellow croaker have just arrived!" Ye Yaodong became more and more excited as he talked.
"How much will it cost if you double your pocket money?" Ye Chenghai also rubbed his hands back and forth happily.
"1 hair becomes 2 hair?"
"Ah?" Ye Chenghai's shoulders slumped instantly, "Isn't it? This fish can be sold for more than ten yuan, and there are dozens of kilograms of crabs!"
"Have you lost your sight on money?"
"It's what you said about doubling your pocket money!"
Ye Yaodong stopped teasing him and said with a smile: "Then I will reluctantly add another zero for you!"
He immediately beamed with joy and said, "That's pretty much it!"
At this moment, Lin Guangyuan shouted loudly: "Sister-in-law, I have finished fishing, there are no fish left, and the sack cannot be lifted!"
"Coming."
The two trotted over again and saw that the sack was almost full.
"Damn it, so much? You really didn't get enough!"
"If I see it, I won't let it go! If you fish it out, there will be more. If you fish it out, there will be more. Don't take it for free. It's just that my hands are sore. There are too many, and my waist is sore."
"Where did the kid get his waist?"
"It's exactly what my mother said. Who said the child has no waist?"
"What can you do with your waist?"
After Ye Yaodong asked back, he used his headlight to shine on the surrounding sea surface. There really wasn't much left, and he caught it quite cleanly.
"If the waist is just the waist, what can it be used for?" Lin Guangyuan asked in confusion.
Ye Yaodong gave a bad smile and said, "You don't have to understand, little kid. Come on up and I'll drag you."
There was no hemp rope around to tie up the opening, so it was difficult to carry, so I had to drag it.
He dragged the bag full of anchovies to the spot where they had caught sandworms, and put them together with the sacks containing sandworms and the sacks containing crabs.
Seeing sandworms moving not far away, he turned to look at the two, "Do you still want to catch them?"
"No more..."
"Catch us? It would be a pity not to catch him..."
Ye Chenghai looked at Lin Guangyuan with a look of disgust, "Have you never done any work? This is already half a bag..."
"Wouldn't it be a waste not to catch it?"
"What a waste. You can't sell it for money. If you take it back, you'll be punished. If I don't do it, you can catch it yourself."
Ye Yaodong patted Lin Guangyuan's head, "Then you can hold him alone for a while, and I'll go back and push the cart! Don't run around."
"Then if you don't do it, I definitely can't do it either!"
"Hey, just stay a few more days and you'll have enough fun by then. It's not difficult to catch this."
Lin Guangyuan nodded, "Is there anything else we can play?"
"I'm going to pick loquats in a few days. Will you go?"
"No, I have plenty at home. How about going to the mountains to steal some?"
"You don't understand. Picking them is fun."
"Then you were chased all over the mountain, caught and sent home, and then your buttocks were spread open?"
Ye Chenghai shut up instantly, and he was beaten frequently.
Ye Yaodong hurried back and pushed the cart quickly on the beach. After loading several large bags of goods onto the cart, he was not ready to wander around the rocks anymore.
It's already very late now. Ye Chenghai has to go to school tomorrow, so that's about it.
But Lin Guangyuan still had some unfinished thoughts, "Sister-in-law, shall we come back tomorrow night?"
"Come on, haven't you had enough money yet?"
"Yes, it's so fun. The beach is more fun at night than during the day."
"I won't come. I'm going to sea tomorrow night."
Lin Guangyuan's eyes lit up instantly, "Then I'll go with you!"
"Screw you, do you think going to sea is just for fun? You'll be exhausted."
"Try it. At worst, I'll lie down on the boat and sleep."
"Don't worry about it, just play on the beach."
It's impossible to bring a baby with you. It's very dangerous at sea. A half-year-old child is not even your own. What should you do if something happens to you?
"Well, then they all go to school tomorrow, who should I play with?"
"Your two cousins ​​are no longer human? You said so nicely when you stayed today that you will help look after your two cousins."
Lin Guangyuan sneered, "Hehe~ Then I'll take them to play."
After Ye Yaodong pushed the cart to the door, he unloaded several bags of goods and poured them into bamboo baskets.
The crabs were packed in two bags, and each bag only held twenty or thirty kilograms. They couldn't be crushed, and they were still jumping around when they were dumped into the frame. If they were put to sell tomorrow morning, they would probably be overhanging and the price would be greatly reduced.
Three baskets were filled with anchovies, but they were all crushed to death.
The sandworms also dumped two baskets and were squirming around, looking a little disgusting.
There were baskets piled up at the door, so it was no wonder that he didn't sleep and got up in the middle of the night to toss around.
Other miscellaneous goods were also mixed with the crabs. He was too lazy to sort them in the middle of the night. Anyway, he had to sort the crabs tomorrow.
Swimming crabs and stone crabs are divided into different categories, and the size also has to be chosen, and the prices are different.
After pouring all the goods, he sent the two little ones to sleep.
"Ye Chenghai, please keep your voice down tomorrow morning so as not to disturb others' dreams."
"ah?"
"If the skin is tighter, the beating may not hurt so much!"
"Sister-in-law, you are so experienced..."
