Siheyuan: I earned foreign exchange in the heyday
Chapter 32: Fishing for Herring
It was a new day. Chen Changan, who seldom drank in his previous life, still felt a little uncomfortable when he woke up in the morning because he had drunk alcohol yesterday. He really didn't want to get up.
Just rest at home today. It’s too late and I don’t want to go fishing. Let’s go fishing for herring tomorrow.
If you want to catch black carp, snails are a good choice. It's just that you need to make a nest in advance, which requires a lot.
Thinking of this, he went out to find the second son of the Yan family, Yan Jiefang, took out a dollar and gave it to him, asking him to find a few people to go to the rocks by the water and find some snails. I need a wash basin for today and I will use it in the evening. After thinking about it, he took out another dollar and said. You can do the rest, whether you want to share it with your friends or buy some delicious food. But there is one thing you need to pay attention to, that is, pay attention to safety. Don't fall into the river and get into trouble. Don't implicate Chen Changan in the future.
Yan Jiefang patted his chest and assured that there would be no problem. We all played by the water often, so who doesn't know how to swim? At worst, we can do dog paddling, right?
As soon as he finished speaking, he realized that he was in the yard and the sound was too loud and someone might hear it. If his father found out, the money would be taken away.
Recently, his father has begun to suspect that he has money on him. It is too troublesome to hide the few cents he has on him, so he must not let his father find out.
Chen Changan was amused when he saw Yan Jiefang being so cautious. He also felt that the Yan family's child was quite pitiful, so he casually gave Yan Jiefang a cigarette and went back.
Thinking that he was going to go fishing tomorrow, in case he caught too much, he would have to deliver the fish to the factory. In case Uncle Xiao and his old comrades were not there, it would be a bit troublesome to deliver the fish by himself, so he went to the steel rolling mill to get a note and borrow the three-wheeled vehicle he had used before.
As long as there is a reward, the Yan family's boys are still very good at doing things. In order to keep the money within the family, the eldest brother Yan Jiecheng and the second brother Yan Jiefang divided the money given by Chen Changan equally. There was no one else to help, so the two brothers acted separately and each made a pot of snails.
After dinner in the evening, Chen Changan got half a pot of snails and went straight to the old place to throw them out to make a nest, which could be considered as feeding the fish in advance.
It's another day of getting up early, but black carp is not as easy to catch as silver carp and bighead carp. Chen Changan, who went out early, was like most anglers today. He sat there until dawn but didn't catch any fish. He just threw a handful of snails from time to time.
Chen Changan, who was extremely bored, felt a little regretful. After all, he didn't know what kind of fish there were in the northern waters.
If there were no black carp in the north, I would have died a miserable death today. Fortunately, I didn't have anyone familiar with me today, otherwise it would be too embarrassing to catch nothing. If I don't catch any fish later, I'll go to the market early to buy two. I can't let my image as a fishing expert fall apart.
It's true that good things don't work, but bad things do. Just as I was thinking about it, I suddenly heard a teasing voice from behind, "What's going on today? Our fishing god is going to go empty-handed?"
Chen Changan knew without looking back that the old man, Uncle Xiao, had arrived. He had said the word "air force" to tease Uncle Xiao when they were chatting, but not long after, it was used on himself.
Without even turning his head, Chen Changan pretended to be calm and said, "What do you know? Do you know where the fishing techniques I taught you came from? They were all obtained through countless experiments. A small improvement in a movement is the result of countless empty-handed attempts and countless missed fish. If you don't believe me, come and take a look at my bait today. Have you seen it?"
When Grandpa Xiao approached and saw the conch being used for fishing, he was in awe. Chen Changan's spirit of innovation and willingness to try was really worth learning from.
After all, how do you know that this won't work? Isn't it said that practice is the only criterion for testing truth?
What Chen Changan was doing was just fishing. Such people really can't be laughed at.
But at the same time, this kind of spirit is lacking among many comrades.
So, Mr. Xiao asked, "Why do you suddenly want to fish with snails?"
Seeing that he had already intimidated Grandpa Xiao, Chen Changan said nonchalantly, "This thing is useless, and I dare not eat it for fear of too many parasites. I just wanted to see if I could make some use of it. Anyway, I have time, so I might as well give it a try, just in case it is useful."
Mr. Xiao said, "I think you are just idle, it seems that I have to give you more responsibilities."
Chen Changan said quickly, "No, no, no, I'm fine the way I am now. After all, I'm too young, with thin arms and legs. If I add more burdens, I'll be crushed."
Uncle Xiao pointed at Chen Changan and said, "You, you, when others encounter such a thing, they are eager to do it, but you are not willing to do it."
Although Chen Changan was talking to Grandpa Xiao, his eyes were always on the fishing float. Although he said it was an experiment, Chen Changan knew that this thing could be used to catch herring.
At this moment, the fishing float suddenly sank at an extremely fast speed.
Seeing this, Chen Changan reacted just as quickly and lifted the rod with force.
Unlike fishing for other fish, most fish react violently after being hooked and try to break free from the hook. However, black carp are different. They are so large that they usually cannot react immediately and do not know what happened.
At this time, when the fisherman pulled the fishing rod, it seemed like it was stuck on the bottom and would not budge no matter how hard he pulled.
Chen Changan was in this situation, unable to pull the fish. The experienced Chen Changan knew immediately that he had caught a big fish, so he stood up and prepared himself.
After Chen Changan's several attempts, the black carp finally reacted and understood what had happened. In all its years of fishing, it had never encountered anything like this.
Instinctively, he wanted to get rid of the hook, so he could only dive deeper and farther.
On the shore, Chen Changan used all his strength to raise the fishing rod, which had already drawn an exaggerated arc.
Uncle Xiao beside him was also dumbfounded at this time. Xiao Liu was even more unbearable. He had accompanied his leader to fish for so many years. This was the first time he saw such a situation. He couldn't help but think of the legendary things. He was a little scared, but he followed his instinct and didn't dare to speak.
After all, Chen Changan's current body is not very old. He didn't eat well before crossing over, and he didn't exercise much. Now that he has encountered a real big fish, he feels a little overwhelmed.
In the blink of an eye, Chen Changan was almost sitting on the ground. The tail of the fishing rod had already stuck into the soil. He held the fishing rod tightly with both arms, and the veins on his neck were bulging.
This fishing rod was obtained by Mr. Xiao from a special channel, and the quality seems to be okay.
Many people around saw Chen Changan's situation and gathered around curiously. After all, Chen Changan didn't come here very often, but he often went fishing to exchange tickets recently, and many people knew this young man.
Many people have seen him fishing for silver carp and bighead carp, a big fish weighing more than ten kilograms, which came up in just a few minutes. It looked like the fish must have been incredibly large.
