Rebirth of Fishing Village: Starting from Hua Axiang in Jiehu Village

Chapter 1427 No matter how much money it is, you have to work hard to earn it!
It's getting darker.

Zhao Dahai, Ding Xiaoxiang and others were all eating dinner together on the deck.

"Liu Lei."

"How does it feel?"

Zhong Shizhu looked over and saw Liu Lei, who was holding a big bowl and eating rice in big mouthfuls.

"what!"

"I am a little tired, but why do I feel as if my whole body is a lot more relaxed?"

As Liu Lei spoke, he picked up a piece of vegetable with chopsticks and stuffed it into his mouth.

"Is there any need to say this? You've been sweating so much, I think you've lost two or three pounds of fat!"

As Lei Dayou spoke, he reached out and poked Liu Lei's stomach.

This is not a joke. Liu Lei just followed these people fishing for two or three hours. Don't think that he didn't do much fishing and was just helping to scoop fish. However, the weather was very hot and they caught a lot of fish, so scooping fish was still a hard job.

I don't know how much sweat I've shed, but I'm sure I've lost a few pounds of fat.

"Tomorrow is the real fishing day. I'm waiting for you to come back exhausted after a day of fishing. Who knows, you might have lost ten pounds of meat in an instant!"

Liu Bin smiled.

I only worked for two or three hours today, so I was definitely tired, but not too tired. If I get up early tomorrow morning and go fishing, Liu Lei will definitely catch ten kilograms of meat.

"Isn't this possible?"

Liu Lei scratched the back of his head.

It's not that I'm afraid of being tired or anything, but I really think this is impossible.

"What's impossible?"

"Your body is just empty fat. You will lose a lot of weight if you sweat a little!"

"If I can really work here for ten days or eight days, I will definitely be able to lose weight!"

Zhong Cuihua glanced at Liu Lei.

"grandmother!"

"I will work very hard tomorrow!"

As Liu Lei spoke, he took the bowls, filled a bowl of fish soup and handed it to Zhong Cuihua, and then filled another bowl for Huang Jintao.

"Row!"

Zhong Cuihua smiled and started drinking the fish soup in small sips.

"These are all freshly caught fish. They are very fresh. The fish soup made from them is really delicious. People in our fishing village love this!"

Huang Jintao drank the fish soup with a smile on her face. This was the soup made from the heads of the sea bass that Zhao Dahai and Zhong Shizhu had just caught. It was extremely fresh.

"You can never get enough of this kind of fish soup in your lifetime! You can drink it every day and never get tired of it."

Ding Xiaoxiang nodded.

Each of us grew up eating fish, shrimps and crabs.

If I don’t eat fish, shrimp or crab for a day, I feel like something is not right, as if it is not complete. This is the taste formed since childhood.

After dinner, Zhong Cuihua and Huang Jintao sat for a while and then went back to the cabin to sleep. One of them was old, and the other was that the sea breeze was a bit colder on the sea, so they still had to be careful.

"Brother Dahai."

"Why do I feel like there are a lot of fishing boats on the coast?"

Liu Lei looked at the sea around him and saw many twinkling lights.

“These are all fishing boats.”

"Speedboats definitely have to go back at night, but some of these are fishing boats that usually go out to sea to fish. They are relatively large and may not go back at night. Or they are speedboats that go out to sea to fish at night."

Zhao Dahai knew very well that these lights were actually fishing boats.

"I really didn't expect that there would be so many people fishing here at night!"

Liu Lei had heard that it was the fishing moratorium and there would be many fishing boats and speedboats on the sea, but he had never actually seen them and it was a bit hard to imagine. Now he saw that there really were a lot of them.

"Now is not the peak time. The first ten days of the fishing moratorium are when there are really a lot of fish!"

Zhong Shizhu shook his head. There are now fewer fishing boats. If Liu Lei had come during the first ten days of the fishing moratorium, there would be even more.

Zhao Dahai, Zhong Shizhu, Liu Bin, Lei Dayou, together with Liu Lei and a few others, have to go out to sea to fish early tomorrow morning. After sitting and talking for a while, they went back to the cabin to sleep. Going out to sea is to work, and if they want to have enough physical strength, they must go to bed early.

"Brother Dawen."

"What's it like to work on a fishing boat?"

Ding Xiaoxiang walked into the cab and saw Ding Dawen sitting on a chair, staring at the sea around the fishing boat.

"What's there to be unaccustomed to?"

"I think this kind of work is the best for me. I don't need to deal with other people. I just need to do my job well."

Ding Dawen smiled.

Others may find this kind of work a bit boring.

I can only stay on the fishing boat all day and can't go anywhere.
But this way is just right for me. I don't need to talk too much to others. I just need to do my job well.

Ding Dawen is very clear about his personality. Dealing with other people is definitely not something he is good at. Otherwise, he would just do business at home.

"If you have any ideas, you must tell me."

Ding Xiaoxiang nodded. She knew Ding Dawen's character very well. Otherwise, she wouldn't have asked him to drive the fishing boat. Ding Dawen was indeed very suitable for such a job. One was that he was good at driving a fishing boat. Another was that although he was not fast at doing things, he was very careful.

This may be a disadvantage when doing business, but it is an advantage, and a big advantage, when doing this work on your own fishing boat.

Ding Dawen agreed.

Ding Xiaoxiang talked with Ding Dawen for a while, then seeing that it was getting late, she went back to the cabin to sleep.

early morning.

The sun has just risen.

Ding Xiaoxiang accompanied Zhong Cuihua and Huang Jintao in cooking, and they had breakfast under the arbour on the rear deck of the fishing boat.

"grandmother!"

"Second Grandma!"

"These crabs for cooking porridge were caught by Da Wen in the crab cage he placed here yesterday."

"It was pulled up just before the sun came out!"

“It’s not that big, but it’s definitely fresh!”

"These small fish were caught from the small schools of fish that were surrounded by lights that I saw online."

As Ding Xiaoxiang spoke, she took out two bowls of seafood porridge cooked with crabs and placed them in front of Zhong Cuihua and Huang Jintao. In the middle of the table was a large iron basin, and in the basin were fried small miscellaneous fishes. They were not big, only the size of a thumb, but very fat. Once fried, they tasted delicious when used as porridge.

"How big are the fish, shrimp, and crabs we have now? What can we eat if we don't have any?"

"The most important thing is not the size, but the freshness."

"The crabs just caught from the sea are really delicious!" Zhong Cuihua took the chopsticks and began to drink the porridge slowly, one mouthful after another.

Zhao Dahai now goes fishing and catches a lot of big fish, including groupers weighing more than 100 kilograms. He makes a lot of money and can eat whatever he wants. But he still thinks that the smaller but fresher fish, shrimps and crabs are more delicious.

The crabs caught by Ding Dawen's crab cage were not big. Some were orchid crabs, and some were stone crabs. Each one was only as big as three fingers, but they were just pulled out of the sea.

It is absolutely the most delicious when used to cook porridge.

These small fish in the big iron basin don’t look particularly eye-catching, and some people may even think that they are worthless fish, but in fact, people who grew up near fishing villages like these fresh small fish the most.

It has thorns and they are very small, but once fried in oil, they all become crispy.

No matter how you eat it, it won’t prick your mouth for adults or children.

"Correct!"

"How can the big fish taste good?"

"Those groupers that weigh more than 100 kilograms have extremely thick meat."

"I really don't understand why such a big fish is so expensive, and why are there people willing to pay so much money to eat it?"

As Huang Jintao spoke, she took a small fish from the big iron basin, put it into her mouth and ate it slowly.

Zhao Dahai caught a lot of big fish of various kinds, including grouper, sea bass and other fish.

At the beginning, Zhong Cuihua and I were a little interested in it, but after eating it a few times, we felt that such a big fish was not delicious at all.

Especially those groupers that weigh dozens or even over a hundred kilograms, he and Zhong Cuihua really couldn't bite them.

"Second Grandma!"

"Most people who pay so much money to eat such a big fish are business people, or some other people."

"How could these people care whether the fish taste good or not? The most important thing is that they have to be big, so that they can look impressive and show off their style."

"If ordinary people eat fish, how could they choose fish that looks like this?"

Ding Xiaoxiang smiled.

Huang Jintao and Zhong Cuihua are actually right. If you want to eat delicious food, big ones are not necessarily better, especially fish and shrimp.

The bigger the animal is, the longer it takes to grow, and the tougher or woodier the meat will become.

Only fish, shrimp and crabs of the right size are the most delicious.

Sometimes, even if the fish, shrimp and crab are small in size, but fat, they must be very delicious.

A simple example is the black sea bream.

Many people think that the water in the open sea is deeper and clearer, and the black sea bream is larger in size, so it must be delicious.

In fact, this is not the case at all.

Although the black sea bream in the inland sea is not as big as those in the open sea, they are generally very fat.

It doesn't need to be particularly big, but it must be fat, so that it tastes better.

Another advantage of its small size is that the meat is very tender.

Although the black sea bream in the open sea look very large, these fish generally take a longer time to grow. At that time, the black sea bream in the open sea are generally not particularly fat. Such fish are really not as good as the black sea bream in the inland sea.

The black sea bream in the inland sea has its disadvantages, that is, the water quality in the inland sea is generally not very good, and the water quality has a great impact on the taste of the fish.

If there is an inland sea with very good water quality, then the black sea bream from such a place will taste very good. However, people who don’t know how to eat it will think that it is the black sea bream from the inland sea, and at the same time think that the black sea bream is not too big, so they don’t like to eat it or think it tastes bad.

"When did Zhao Dahai go fishing?"

Zhong Cuihua finished a bowl of seafood porridge with rice, ate two fried fish, put down her chopsticks, and turned to look at the sea around her.

Huang Jintao and I went to bed early last night and slept very well. When we woke up, the sun had already risen.

Zhao Dahai, Zhong Shizhu and others had already gone out to sea to fish in their speedboat. I really had no idea when they left.

Ding Xiaoxiang turned her head to look at Ding Dawen who was eating breakfast beside her. Zhong Cuihua and Huang Jintao didn't know, and she didn't know either.

"Zhao Dahai and Uncle Shizhu went out to sea at four in the morning!"

Ding Dawen picked up a small fish while speaking.

"You're out to sea so early?"

Zhong Cuihua knew that Zhao Dahai usually went out to sea to fish early, but she didn't know he would go so early.

"Correct!"

"Generally speaking, we go out to sea at 4am, no later than 5am, and sometimes even earlier."

"We all have to follow the flowing water!"

"Another reason is that if you go out to sea earlier, you can catch more and better fish."

"There are just too many people fishing around now."

"If Zhao Dahai and his team go out to sea earlier and fish in the dark, not many people will notice the fishing spots."

"But today Zhao Dahai and his friends went fishing on an artificial island reef, and there were many people fishing there."

"We went out to sea at four in the morning. If it was some fishing spot that only Zhao Dahai knew about, we would have to go out to sea even earlier."

Ding Dawen knew very well the time when Zhao Dahai went fishing.

Sometimes earlier, sometimes later.

After the fishing moratorium begins, most people go fishing at night, or go out to sea early in the morning.

Zhong Cuihua nodded.

Whether you are fishing or fishing, you actually have to go out to sea very early.

I just wasn't quite sure why Zhao Dahai went out to sea so early, but I didn't think there was anything wrong with going out to sea so early.

Don’t just look at Zhao Dahai catching so many fish and making so much money now, but he had to work very hard to earn this money.

If you go fishing when the lazy sun rises high in the sea, you will not catch any fish and will not make any money even if you have great skills.

Ding Xiaoxiang accompanied Zhong Cuihua and Huang Jintao to finish breakfast. There was not much place to go on the fishing boat, so they just strolled on the deck.

"Yo!"

"What kind of place is that?"

Huang Jintao saw a lot of speedboats not far away, and people were fishing. He was very curious and didn't know where that was, so he pointed.

"Second Grandma!"

"That place is an island reef, and the foam area is a very famous place for fishing sea bass."

"Didn't Zhao Dahai catch a 3,000-jin sea bass yesterday? He caught it right there."

Ding Dawen took a look and immediately laughed. Huang Jintao was pointing at the island reef foam area.

It was at that place yesterday that Zhao Dahai spent two hours catching more than 3,000 kilograms of sea bass.

"If this place is so close and you can catch so many fish, why didn't Zhao Dahai go fishing there today?"

Zhong Cuihua was very puzzled and didn't know why Zhao Dahai didn't go to that place to fish today.
