Back to the small fishing village in 1982

Chapter 99

Father Ye didn't notice that the fishing boat ran away after picking the pomfret. The sea area is so wide that he didn't keep looking at the direction, so it's normal if he doesn't know.

Ye Yaodong also had a sense of propriety, and when he was almost far away, he turned his driving direction and walked back. The big net underneath was always wide open, and anyone who entered the range of the fishing net would be caught and couldn't escape.

Seeing that the time was almost up, he took the initiative to stop the boat and go to the stern to wind it up without Father Ye calling, but found that the net was even heavier.

Father Ye was also pleasantly surprised, on behalf of Shen, there are a lot of goods.

When the net was dragged from the slide to the deck, both father and son's eyes widened in surprise!
"Codfish? Big codfish?"

Excited, Ye Yaodong rushed forward and pulled out the big min fish steak inside, "Damn it, get rich dad, this one definitely weighs 50 catties, we're going to get rich!"

Father Ye also hurried forward to help move the big cod out by himself, and said with a happy smile, "Oh my God, I'm really going to get rich, and I haven't caught a big one in half a month. The head of this fish is bigger than your face." Big."

"It's worth it. With this one, I won't have to go to sea for half a month."

Father Ye's old face also burst into a smile.

This is a big codfish!
Common cod is mostly no more than 10 catties. The one they caught is so big that it was definitely over 50 catties. No fisherman has seen such a big cod for decades. Father Ye Haven't seen it either.

Winter is the season when the production of cod is abundant, but I did not expect to catch such a large cod before autumn. The father and son are very happy.

The bigger the cod, the more valuable it is.

The reason why it is valuable is the cod fish maw made from the belly of the cod fish. The high-quality cod fish maw is worth tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of yuan per catty. In this era, the money is valuable, and the price is not so high. The isinglass would cost a thousand pounds at this time.

"One tael and ten catties of fish", that is, 10 catties of fish can only produce one tael of isinglass, and this big cod over 50 catties can definitely produce more than 5 taels of isinglass.

A piece of isinglass weighs five taels, what kind of concept is this?
Simply to get rich!
Ye Yaodong took down a large cod fish that was still in the mouth of the fish, and glanced at the pile just poured out on the deck. They were all water grain fish. While eating, he happened to be caught by his fishing net.

He stretched out his arms happily to show its length, "How many dollars is this big cod fish worth, Dad?"

"Say less than two or three hundred yuan." Father Ye's happy mouth almost reached the back of his head.

"Say less?"

"I don't know how big it is. I'll go ashore later and have a look. Put it in a big plastic bucket and get some ice cubes to keep it fresh. It's still a long time. We'll return after dragging two more nets."

"Hey."

With a big cod, Ye Yaodong's confidence was greatly boosted, he simply sailed the boat to haul the net according to his own will, and did not go back to his father's usual place of work, he still drove to the sea area just now to haul this net.

Father Ye happily sat next to the foam box where the cod was magnified, staring at the foam box and giggling. He had never seen such a big cod in his life.

He was silly and cheerful, until Ye Yaodong told him to turn on the net, he stood up with a smile.

"Father, are you happy and silly?"

"If this fish is carried ashore, our family will become famous again."

Thinking of the upcoming scenery, the smile on Father Ye's face deepened.

"People are afraid of being famous and pigs are afraid of being strong. Fortunately, everyone in the village knows that our family is building a house and spending money like water. Otherwise, seven or eight aunts and eight aunts who haven't seen each other for hundreds of years will come to borrow money."

"Uh…"

Thinking of this, Father Ye is not so happy, he saw the two brothers clearly after a net of big yellow croakers, and they haven't spoken to each other till now, only the younger ones occasionally come to give some food to the old lady.

But when a person's luck comes, he can't stop it. The money that God sends to the door, you can't let it go, right?

Father Ye frowned, it was really a sweet trouble.

After a while, he shook his head again, "Thinking too much, it's only a few hundred yuan, let's talk about it when you get rich! Pull this net first."

The goods in this net are miscellaneous, there are no surprises, no big goods, nothing rare, Ye Yaodong untied the rope, poured out all the goods, fiddled with it, and muttered something.

"Little squid, there are quite a lot of them, and there are seeds in their stomachs, not bad. Pippi shrimp, come with me... Red flower crab, orchid crab, swimming crab, eel, squid, oh? What is this? Skinned fish?"

He took it out and flipped through it, "Take this back to dry the fish, right? Peeled dried fish is suitable for wine!"

"Just thinking about eating..."

"Then I'll take it back and post it in the sun, you don't want to eat it!"

"Take it and sell it for money!"

"Today's harvest is enough. That big cod has been enough for us to go to sea for half a month. Your life is only a few decades, and you are almost 50. Don't live so hard. The skinning is not much at all. strip."

"What's wrong with me at 50? It's not that I won't live long. If you want to mess around, you can keep some."

"The last net, you go and let it go, I'll pick it."

Anyway, I made enough money today, Ye Yaodong wanted to save some decent food for himself, it just so happened that the squids in this net were small and fat, with rice grains in their stomachs, so it was cool to save some to eat.

I eat small fish and shrimps that no one wants every day, and I am tired of skinny crabs and skinny shrimps. Today, the Internet has exploded. It is not too much to keep two decent ones. Let his father choose. His father will definitely not want to keep more, so let him Come.

I don't know if it's because of Ye's father's bad luck, or because there's not much goods in the surrounding area. The last net actually only has catfish and some small fish and shrimps. The quantity is not much. It is estimated that this net only weighs more than 20 catties.

"Fortunately, there is that big cod, otherwise today's harvest would be pretty mediocre."

Father Ye wasn't very disappointed, that's all the goods on Yiwang recently, and others are not as good as him.

"Okay, the sky looks a little dark, it seems to be raining soon, the waves are rolling a bit now, it may rain heavily, let's go back early."

"Then let me drive it, you sleep for a while?"

In the past two months, their brothers took turns to go to sea. Although they had to work during the day when they were not at sea, they had enough time to rest at night. Only his father was worried, and he took them with him every day without taking turns.

I get up at 1 o'clock every night and return at 3-5 o'clock in the afternoon. I float on the sea for 15 hours a day. I can't eat well and sleep well. Only when the wind blows and the machine breaks down can I rest for a day or two at night.

Seeing that his complexion has not been very good-looking recently, and his brows are obviously tired, Ye Yaodong thought that if he went to wash the sea in a few days, or if he caught blue crabs in the ground cage, he would leave a Bubu for his father.

Father Ye shook his head, holding a compass in his hand to identify the direction, "Let me drive. You didn't know where you drove when you were dragging two nets. They deviated from the sea area where I usually stayed. I will drive again. You might not be able to drive back until dark.”

Underestimate him, with a compass in hand, he will never get lost at sea.

It's just that I feel sorry for his father, if you are worried, then let it go.
