1983 Small Island, Starting From a Large Farmer Chapter 284

Chapter 284 The shrimp is so big that one person can't hold it

When Li Duoyu saw the thing on the sticky net, his heartbeat accelerated instantly, and even he couldn't help but say:

“Big, really big.”

Just now he was thinking about the big lobster, but he caught it in no time.

And this lobster hanging on the sticky net is not a Hong Kong lobster, but a Chinese lobster, which the locals also call Big Flower Dragon.

The lobster's body is colorful, and its body and tentacles combined seem to be one meter long.

Although the Splendid Lobster is the largest of all lobsters, lobsters of this size are also very rare.

After Chen Wenchao quickly pulled the lobster onto the boat, he was so excited that his hands were shaking and he couldn't close his mouth with laughter.

“Brother Yu, this lobster is so big, it weighs twenty pounds. I think this one can be sold for dozens of yuan.”

Li Duoyu looked at it and said, "It should be about ten pounds."

“No way, such a big lobster only weighs ten kilograms.”

Li Duoyu nodded. The lobster looked big, but it was actually not very heavy. With the tentacles in front of him, it would weigh only about ten pounds.

As for the price, it must be more than a few dozen yuan. A ten-kilogram lobster is already very rare, and it is the kind that is rare to find.

Li Duoyu has never seen such a big lobster in his two lifetimes. He feels that if he sells it in Rongcheng, he might be able to sell it for two to three hundred yuan.

However, Li Duoyu has no intention of selling this big flower dragon. If he doesn't eat such a big lobster, he really won't be able to eat it in the future.

After the lobster was pulled onto the board of the boat, it kept struggling, and its huge tail crackled like a firecracker.

250 was also very interested in this big lobster and kept smelling it with his nose.

However, the next second, the big flower dragon threw its tail on its dog's head.

Two hundred and five screamed on the spot, and it was so frightened that it hid in the stern of the boat and made a whining sound.

Li Duoyu felt that the blow just now should have been quite painful, but it was good to let Erbai Wu remember that not all seafood was touchable.

Li Duoyu did not completely untie the sticky net, but cut off the sticky net under the main rope and let the fine net wrap around the big flower dragon.

Following.

Li Duoyu took out a modified ground cage. After checking it, he stuffed the large lobster still wrapped with a fine net into the ground cage.

Then hang one end of the ground cage on the bow of the boat and let the ground cage soak in the sea water, so that the lobster will not die due to lack of water and oxygen.

In fact, just like fish protection for fishing, many fishermen have recently set up fishing rafts and started to temporarily raise fish.

At this time, the fishermen's fishing boats did not have live fish cabins. In order to keep the caught sea fish alive, the fishermen of Dandan Island came up with this method of hanging an external cage on the ground, which was quite easy to use.

But there are also things to pay attention to, that is, be sure to tie it tightly, and don't let the ground cage break, otherwise your intestines will be broken.

A few days ago, fisherman Lao Lu's net cage was cut open by something unknown, and hundreds of kilograms of live grouper escaped.

He was so angry that he went to see Dr. Defa that night and asked for a small bottle of Suxiao Jiuxin Pills.

The sun sets into the sea.

The sea turned dark instantly, leaving only a glimmer of light. Li Duoyu lit the lantern with a match.

As the lantern lights up.

The two men continued to set up the net.

After catching a big flower dragon, Chen Wenchao became more and more energetic, relying on the strength of his waist and abdomen to keep pulling the sticky net.

“Brother Yu, this is really a lobster nest. There is another lobster.”

“Another real sea bream.”

After pulling for twenty minutes, Chen Wenchao's speed of lifting the net slowed down significantly. His forehead was covered with sweat, and his back was also wet.

Li Duoyu glanced at it and said, "It's too late. Let me pull the net, Xiaochao, and you can untie the fish."

“Okay, Brother Yu.”

He thought he could pull up the sticky net by himself today, but he didn't expect that there were too many rocks at the bottom, and it would get hung up from time to time, making it very difficult to pull up.

Li Duoyu spit on his hand and started to pull the net.

As soon as I started pulling, I felt that the net was very heavy. Within a few meters, I saw several large groupers wrapped in the sticky net.

Chen Wenchao smiled happily: "Brother Yu, we made a fortune today."

Li Duoyu also smiled from ear to ear. This Bird's Mouth Reef is really a good place.

It took less than half an hour to set the net and more than an hour to raise it. Of course, the main reason was that too many lobsters and fish were caught.

Two ground cages were hung on the bow of the boat. One of them was full of giant lobsters, and the other was full of groupers, sea bream and the like.

As for the oil cone, sea wolf, and golden drum fish that cannot be put on the table, Li Duoyu is not put in the ground cage, but is piled directly on the deck.

Due to being slapped hard by the Big Flower Dragon before, Erbaiwu has learned well now and doesn't dare to smell the seafood casually, but keeps a certain distance from them.

With the "rumble" of the diesel engine, Li Duoyu drove the sampan towards Dandan Island.

As long as you are not too far away from the island, it is still easy to identify the direction when sailing at night. Just look for the lighthouse and keep driving in the direction of the lighthouse.

The only thing you need to worry about is the reef. In fact, in this era, most fishing boats hit the rocks and sank.

Just like Bird's Mouth Reef, once it's night, Li Duoyu doesn't dare to pass through this sea area.

The sampan boat drove for an hour and finally approached Dandan Island. When passing by the waters of Chenjia Village, Li Duoyu discovered that their small pier was also brightly lit tonight.

It seems that Chenjia Village has also worked very hard this year. When we returned to the pier of their village, we found that the fishing boats were lined up.

Baskets of fish were constantly being carried to the pier. Judging from the situation, everyone caught a lot of fish today.

Li Duoyu's sampan did not enter the port, but sailed to the fishing raft.

But before they even got close, the two of them found a lantern on the fishing raft and a sampan with an oar docked.

You don't need to know that Comrade Li was worried that the sea fish temporarily raised on the fishing raft would be stolen, so he went to sleep on the fishing raft again.

After hearing the sound of the diesel engine.

In the bamboo house, a middle-aged man came out and said on the spot.

“Coming back so late, where did you go fishing today? Why does everyone say they didn't see you two?”

Li Duoyu replied: "Go to the sea area over Chenjiacun." Old Li said worriedly: "You are not familiar with it, there are many reefs, and there seems to be a Bird's Beak Reef. I won't know if I go there in the future."

“We are from”

Before Chen Wenchao could say anything, Li Duoyu pulled him and interrupted: "I know, I will try to come back before dark in the future."

After the sampan docked, Erbaiwu jumped on the fishing raft very consciously and returned to his kennel.

Li Duoyu pulled up the ground cage and poured it into one of the cages, looking at the live groupers and snappers.

Lao Li's eyes widened: "Where did you catch so many fish?"

Li Duoyu smiled and said, "There is also a ground cage here. Take a look at what's inside."

After Lao Li pulled up the cage, he was dumbfounded on the spot. The entire cage was filled with lobsters.

“Why are there so many lobsters?”

When he was in the fishing team, even if he used a trawler to catch them, he might not be able to catch so many lobsters.

And there was a very big one inside. He had never seen such a big one in all his years in the fishing team.

Li Duoyu chuckled and did not dare to tell Lao Li that he went to Bird's Mouth Reef to fish.

“Hurry up and raise the lobsters too.”

Li Duoyu grinned and said: "It's easy to die if you raise lobsters in cages like this. I'll take them to the eel factory and raise them together with the swimming crabs."

Lao Li urged: "Hurry up, such a big lobster is too rare, and it will be worthless if it dies."

After releasing the grouper and snapper, Li Duoyu drove the sampan boat back to the dock.

Many fishing boats were queuing up to unload their cargo, and the fishmongers on the pier were all frantic.

Old man Mi and Uncle Zhuang looked completely overwhelmed, and even their family members came to help.

The fishmongers who usually do not collect fish also came out to collect fish during this time period.

When it was the turn of Lao Lu's fishing boat, someone on the dock shouted: “Lao Lu, you must have caught a lot when you come back so late.”

“Stop talking, I'm very unlucky today. The net was hung at the bottom and a section was broken. All the nets caught were Chunzi.”

“Chunzi is not bad either.”

A young fishmonger, relying on his nimble legs and feet, jumped directly onto Lao Lu's fishing boat.

“Chunzi, a hair.”

“Damn it, it's almost the Chinese New Year and it's still so dark, why can't I just sell it to you for 15 cents?”

"Okay, one and a half cents, I'll take all the fish in your boat."

The next ship to unload the cargo was the Zhao brothers.

When they moved baskets of horse fish to the pier, the fishmongers grabbed them on the spot.

“The small one is two cents, the big one is three cents.”

Uncle Zhuang hesitated for a while and then bid: "The small one is 25 cents, the big one is 35 cents."

Old man Mi scolded him on the spot: "Old Zhuang, you are causing trouble with your bad business."

Uncle Zhuang rolled his eyes and said: "The market can change at any time, okay? My son's seafood shop has good sales of this fish. I'll give it to you in the next shipment. I won't compete with you."

Old man Mi couldn't help but scolded: "Damn it, this store is amazing. I will also open a store in Rongcheng next year."

After Lao Zhuang neatly weighed three baskets of Mayou fish, he counted five big unity sheets on the spot and gave them to the Zhao brothers.

Zhao Dahai smiled happily after receiving the money. However, he did not put the money in his pocket. Instead, he went to the fishing tackle shop and gave the money directly to the shop owner, Lao Chen.

“Uncle Chen, I'll give you back fifty yuan first, and two hundred and five yuan left. I should be able to pay you back after a while.”

“Why are you so anxious to pay back the money you just borrowed?” Although Lao Chen said this, he still collected the five large sheets.

When Li Duoyu's sampan docked at the dock, Mr. Mi said to the other fishmongers: "One person takes a turn, don't rob me this time."

Old man Mi jumped on Li Duoyu's sampan boat. After looking at the whole boat of trash fish, he couldn't help but frown. It was obvious that the good ones were put in the cages again.

“Director Li, I'll give you every cent of these trash fish.”

Li Duoyu said cheerfully:

“Sure, it's just a dime.”

Old man Mi took a snakeskin bag, put all the miscellaneous fish in it, and then tied it up with a rope.

Weighed it with a steelyard.

“One hundred and seven pounds, that's eleven dollars for you.”

Old man Mi took out a large unity card and a worker driving a tractor, and handed them to Li Duoyu.

Just when he was about to lift the fish onto the pier, he caught a glimpse of the ground cage tied to the bow of the boat. He couldn't help but pick it up and take a few glances at it.

After seeing what was inside, Mr. Mi was so shocked that he could not speak. He was afraid that other fishmongers would see it, so he quickly put the cage back.

Turning his head, he looked at Li Duoyu again.

An old face smiled brighter than flowers, but what he didn't expect was.

Just now a fisherman also saw it and jumped on the boat to pull up the cage.

“Holy shit~~”

“They're all lobsters, and there's only one this big in there. It feels like it weighs more than ten kilograms. Damn it, the village director is going to give it away again this time.”

After hearing this, Old Man Mi twitched the corner of his mouth and cursed at the young man on the spot: "Black Dog Master, you don't want to buy fish, why are you so lazy?"

“I'm happy, I can handle it.”

“Your uncle's.”

When the young man nicknamed Black Dog Master shouted, the fishmongers and fishermen at the dock all looked this way.

Even the Zhao brothers from the fishing tackle shop heard about it and came here.
