Chapter 631 Catching Fish
Chapter 630 Catch Fish

"Don't you visit the ancient buildings in Pan'ao Township, Huaxi, and the old way of Gantang? Don't you practice the waist drum and stilt dragon dance in the ancestral hall in the evening? Now is the time when there are many wild vegetables, don't you learn how to make Qingming Baba? The B&B ranks first, second, and third. Experience activities, don’t you want to try it? Don’t you go for a walk in Miao Village? Don’t you visit Pig Farm, Musk Farm, Yan Farm, orchid Farm? How much time do you have to pour vegetables, meditate, eat and eat, and go through the Buddhist rituals? You and Alice have never played before, have you?"

When Shirly heard it, it was true, it would take at least half a month to arrange all of these!

Li Junge explained to a group of people: "Everyone may find it very novel after watching the gameplay of A Yin and I on "No Man's Island". In fact, as long as you walk around the village, you will find that these are just our daily routines. Life."

"There are still many things that have not been shown in the show, such as rules and etiquette. Let's find out slowly. Now I will be a tour guide for everyone. We drink tea and watch the scenery at the same time..."

"The origin of this bowl of tea is something you may not know. This bowl is also called the 'Sancai Bowl'. This also involves an important Chinese philosophy, Taoism. The so-called three are the basic knowledge in the Book of Changes..."

As soon as Li Junge took over, he instantly killed Alice and Shirly, the two knives. The beautiful allusions and cultural knowledge made a group of Columbia University students look like they were drinking wine instead of drinking tea. Even Chinese tourists, too. Automatically surrounded him in a large circle and listened to the explanation.

When the boat arrived at the visitor center, a boy turned his head and saw A Yin standing on the shore with a smile, and suddenly became excited: "Ingris! That's Ingris!"

Then Li Junge was emptied all of a sudden, and a group of young foreigners ran to the side of the boat to wave, and the goddess Ayin Ingris shouted indiscriminately.

A Yin also smiled and waved to them.

When everyone got off the boat, there was another round of laughter.

When everyone was about to make a fuss, A Yin greeted everyone to get on the battery car, and said: "Welcome everyone to our village, now we will start a journey through, from the modern pier to the ancient village, this experience, we will Starting from Uncle San Gao's Jiu Dou Bowl delicacy..."

During the meal, Li Junge said: "There are still two days before we leave the rice seedlings. We have not moved the Columbia experience field at the foot of the mountain, just to let everyone experience the Chinese farming civilization with all the beards and tails. Tomorrow we will grow the fields and catch rice. Huayu, after clearing the fields, they have to turn over the fields, and then transplant rice seedlings, do you have the confidence to do it well?"

Everyone shouted yes.

Li Junge said with a smile: "In the afternoon we have to start weaving fish covers. After dinner, everyone goes to the ancestral hall to do this work first. Whether you can catch fish or not depends on how well you do today."

After dinner, Li Junge took the college students to the ancestral hall, where there was already a pile of bamboo, five or six frames for cutting bamboo.

A Yin came over ahead of schedule and was working with Aunt Bai to adjust the camera and take charge of the video.

The old man was playing chess with the Fourth Grandpa, and when he saw a group of people coming in, he couldn't help laughing: "Piwa is really good at making things up, starting from weaving fish hoods, thanks to him he figured it out!"

Then I watched Li Junge begin to demonstrate how to cut bamboo, and then called a few eager college students to try their hands, took out a rope, tied wooden nails on one end and chalk on the other end, and asked two people to draw circles on the ground.

The Fourth Grandpa smiled and said, "The fish cover is the simplest bamboo weaving, right? Get started quickly, and then you can see the effect tomorrow. This group of children will definitely find a sense of accomplishment."

The old man smiled and said, "I heard that this kid was a monkey back then. How did you get him to study?"

The Fourth Grandpa looked at Li Junge directing there, and said with a smile: "Back then, it was similar to now, starting with leading him all over the mountain to catch sparrows..."

The old man laughed loudly and said, "Then he is now playing big swords in front of Guan Gong's gate!"

The fish cover is simple. Li Junge let everyone experience the experience of cutting bamboo, removing the flesh, and drawing strips. After passing the inspection, Alice Shirly called rice dumpling taro and began to weave the cover along the chalk circle drawn on the ground.

After instructing for a while how to insert the bamboo slices and how to control the taper, I saw that everyone was ready to get started, so I let the four of them act as guides, and I stepped aside to watch the shooting effect with A Yin, and occasionally give a few words of guidance.

Of course, those whose fingers were cut by strips of bamboo strips and those whose hands were tied by bamboo threads were indispensable. Li Junge smiled and invited Xiaoxue out. It’s okay, the doctor has already prepared it, and the bandages are enough. If you don’t experience wind and rain, how can you see a rainbow!
A group of people got dinner time, and they can be regarded as fixing seven or eight crooked fish covers.

Early the next morning, after breakfast, Li Junge drove a bird of prey, and asked a group of people to lift up the cover and throw it on. Everyone got in the car, and the car was full of people and drove towards the foot of the terraced fields.

After getting out of the car, Li Junge pointed to a field with a sign on it and said, "This is your brother's experimental field."

After speaking, he picked up a hoe: "Look at how to use the hoe, keep your hands steady, drop the hoe straight, and don't land too close to your feet. Now we are opening the water mouth on the side of the stream."

Demonstrated two hoes, called two foreigners to take over, and pulled out the machete to cut phoenix bamboo in the nearby bamboo forest.

A group of foreigners laughing and joking took turns to get started, and after a while, the hole in the field ridge was opened, and the water in the field flowed out.

Li Junge asked them to stop, wait for the water to stop flowing, and then continue to deepen it, so that the fish would not run away, and then all the people came over, cut the bamboo strips like yesterday, and weaved a big bamboo strip cover.

When the water is almost full, ask everyone to start rolling up their trousers, and go into the water with the rice dumplings and taro first, place the big cover in a corner of the paddy field, and ask them to dig the mud to paste the bottom edge after inserting it firmly.

Then I caught fish with the cover I made yesterday, and threw all the fish I caught here.

After that, I couldn’t watch it. At first, more than a dozen foreigners were afraid of getting dirty, but at the beginning, one of them wobbled twice and fell down in the field.

Then the people next to him laughed, and then this one refused to accept, how could he not share the joys and sorrows, hugged the one who laughed the most, and threw up, these are two mud monkeys.

A chain reaction started, and in the end, a dozen or so foreigners were seen laughing and rolling around in the field. Apart from white eyes, there was no mud anywhere on their bodies.

Seeing that it was almost done, Li Junge took out a whistle with satisfaction and blew it, signaling everyone to stop, and shouted: "Okay, don't worry about it now! Let's start, catch fish!"

This experience is not easy for foreigners, even Chinese children, so of course it is fun.

The matter is difficult to say but easy to say, the water in the field is higher than the back of the fish, and the fish over a catty in size are running very fast in it, and I can hear the exclamation one after another.

"Ah! The cover is here!"

"Catch one, oops, don't jump! OH SHIT..."

"TOM! Here comes my fish, right under your feet! Oh! You are so stupid!"

"Clarify who is stupid! It's a shame to let the fish go..."

"Oh, I finally caught it! I throw it! OH NO! This is not the same as playing basketball..."

……

Foreigners are not stupid, and quickly learned to cooperate and divide the work. One person covers it, and three or four people touch it. Anyway, the clothes are already dirty.

In any case, there are more and more fish in the big cover in the corner of the rice field.

A group of people tossed until almost noon, Li Junge blew his whistle again and asked, "Who dares to cut a fish?"

A group of mud monkeys looked at each other, and one of them raised his hand: "I can."

The other also raised his hand hesitantly: "My family runs a butcher shop, I can try it too, but let me say that I have never done it..."

Li Junge smiled and said: "That's fine, it's just you two, I'll see what you two look like later..."

I brought two buckets of clean water from the side of the ditch, and poured them down: "Well, I can see clearly, what's your name? George? What about you? Gerald? OK, you two are my second chef, let's go Pick out a basket of fish."

After picking out a basket of carp weighing more than a catty, there were about twenty of them, and Li Junge started to lead a group of mud monkeys back.

All are not allowed to get in the car, just follow behind the car, mainly because they are exercising and not cold, and they are afraid of catching a cold when the wind blows in the car.

Coming to the edge of a mountain stream, Li Junge took out a small water pump from the car, put one end of the pipe into the stream, and said, "Everyone, there is nothing we can do, let's clean it first!"

After speaking, when the faucet was turned on, a group of young people were excitedly crying and howling.

Roughly looking like a human being, Li Junge said with a smirk: "You don't need to clean it up too much. In the afternoon, you have to clean the fields, flat fields, and pull fish."

When I came to the ancestral hall, my mother was shocked when she saw the group of remnants and defeated generals: "My God! Why did I ask me to rush over to boil ginger syrup? Are you going to the field or the cave?"

Li Junge called everyone to change into dry clothes, and then went to the fish pond behind to fetch water and dissect the fish.

After a while, George and Gerald came to help.

Fearing that the two would cut their hands, Li Junge dissected the fish himself, and asked the two to help wash the internal organs, beat the armor and pick the gills.

Everyone came one after another, and Li Junge took out a basket and arranged for Alice and Shirly to take the girls to the surrounding fields to pick celery, green bamboo shoots, leeks, green peppers, coriander, green onions, and dig ears; Zongba and Taro took the boys with a small hoe Go to the bamboo forest to dig bamboo shoots.

Cut open all the fish and left it to the two helpers to take care of it. Li Junge went to the bamboo forest to instruct the boys to dig spring bamboo shoots.

Spring bamboo shoots are easier to dig than winter bamboo shoots. After all, the tips of the bamboo shoots have been unearthed, at least they are easy to find. Li Junge instructed the boys to dig up the surrounding soil with small hoes, and took the spring bamboo shoots down to the roots.

After digging up seven or eight large spring bamboo shoots, Li Junge began to instruct a group of people to peel the bamboo shoots, wash and chop the vegetables. He took the fish in a large basin and poured it with white wine, salt, ginger and garlic.

Then ask a few boys to move the bricks and move them to form a long channel shape.

A fire was raised, and a few boys were responsible for drying the bamboo. After carbonization, they took it out and put it in the passage.

The girls who finished washing the dishes were in charge of making rectangular baking trays out of microwave tin foil.

These things are also fun, a group of people are doing it with great interest, knowing that today's noon meal comes from these preparations.

Then one person is responsible for one or two fish, put them on the plate and bake them, and brush them with cooked vegetable oil while grilling.

Li Junge himself went to the kitchen to stir-fry.
