Going back to the old days of hunting at sea

Chapter 792 Your hands are too stinky, let me get some good stuff

"Uncle Shuisheng! Uncle Wei! This is a great harvest!"

Wu Dahua also took some time out.

Seeing the boat full of fish, my mouth almost split open with smiles.

"If we had known there was a nest of pomfret in this area, we would have sailed out in that boat!" said Wei Jianjun.

Wu Guang’s fishing boat was equipped with at least six or seven kilometers of fishing nets.

So many networks are full, I can’t say how much more there is for one person, but there must be enough for 200 yuan.

"We can do it again tomorrow!" Wu Dahua suggested.

"That makes sense! Old Wu, what do you think?" Wei Jianjun asked Wu Shuisheng.

As long as there are enough fish, even if the net has been used once, the harvest will not be less the second time.

Besides, we only brought two kilometers of fishing net today, so there must be a lot of fish that we haven’t caught yet.

"I think it's okay. I'll go back and talk to Wu Guang later."

"How can you make so much money from sweet potato rice in a day? Catching fish is more important."

Wu Shuisheng nodded in agreement.

He decocted two fish and handed them to Chen Hui. "This fish is good. It will be delicious if you steam it and add some soy sauce."

The fishing boat started moving slowly again.

Wu Dahua drove the boat and turned towards the sea area where the hooks were placed.

Wu Shuisheng and Wei Jianjun began to deal with the fishing nets and fish that had just been pulled back.

With smooth movements, he untied the fish from the fishing net and threw them into the fish basket.

After all the fish on the net are untied, roll up the fishing net and stuff it next to the fish basket.

Pull over another piece of net and continue fishing.

Chen Hui processed the fish and seafood together.

The large aluminum pot containing boiling water also began to emit smoke.

Chen Hui avoided the steam, carefully opened the lid of the pot, and placed the seafood in one by one.

Then he fanned the charcoal twice to get it burning.

The best way to cook such large seafood is to steam or blanch it.

Try to retain the original sweet taste of seafood.

Seafood is steaming in the pot.

Chen Hui took the basket containing the food and searched through the cloth bag that Wu Shuisheng brought this time.

In addition to the commonly used seasonings, I also found a handful of peppers that were neither red nor green.

Chen Huihong grows some peppers every year.

The fully red ones with good appearance can be dried in the sun and sold for some money at market.

This kind of neither red nor green will be made into chili sauce and kept for home consumption.

"Uncle, shall we make some red pepper sauce and chopped peppers this year?"

“Every year the good ones are sold out, so I’ve never tasted the all-red ones.

As Chen Hui spoke, he cut all the peppers into small pieces.

"Ah! Ahh!"

"You need to tell your aunt about this. I told her two years ago, but she didn't listen!"

“I should listen to it this year!”

Wu Shuisheng stood closer to Chen Hui and sneezed repeatedly because of the choking.

"Why?! Is there anything different this year?"

"Wu Guang said Huihong had turned down the job of mending the fishing nets. How could she make a fortune behind our backs?"

Wei Jianjun decocted the fish skillfully while chatting about gossip.

"My aunt was afraid that I wouldn't be able to find a wife, so she kept trying to save some money for me to marry her. Even if there was money left, she wouldn't spend it."

"Now that I have a wife, she can earn money on her own, so she doesn't have to be so frugal."

Chen Hui was fanning himself.

He calmly said what Wu Shuisheng was embarrassed to say.

"You know everything."

"Your aunt is not kind to you in vain. You are a good boy."

Wu Shuisheng sighed with great relief.

Half of the fishing nets on the deck were not handled.

Wu Dahua had already seen the buoy in the distance.

He turned around and shouted, "Uncle Shuisheng, Uncle Wei, we're almost there."

"understood."

Wu Shuisheng responded loudly.

He pushed the fishing net with the fish still hanging on it aside, and brought over two buckets and a water tank. He pointed to a bucket nearby and asked, "Chen Hui, do you still want this bucket of water?"

"No, it was originally used to wash seafood." Chen Hui said.

Wu Shuisheng nodded, picked up the bucket and poured it into the water tank.

He then drew two more buckets of water and poured them in.

Wei Jianjun had been standing by the fishing boat waiting for a while.

Seeing that the position was almost right, he grabbed the floating bamboo pole and pulled the hook upwards.

The seafood in the pot is steamed.

Chen Hui put the aluminum pot aside and replaced it with an iron pan for cooking.

Add lard, stir-fry the chili peppers and add seasonings to make the sauce.

The light seafood is delicious but not good with rice.

This is great for dipping seafood or eating it directly with rice.

"Dinner has been arranged. Let's eat first after collecting the hooks. We can prepare the fishing nets later."

"How's the row of hooks? Is the catch good?"

Wu Shuisheng and Wei Jianjun, who had been screaming just now, were very calm when they were reeling in the hooks.

Chen Hui guessed that the harvest would not be very good.

When I walked over and took a look, I saw there were only a few fish in the tank, all of average size.

There weren't many fish in the bucket.

Wei Jianjun took a sea bream from the hook and casually threw it into the fish basket on the side.

"Today's hook harvest is average!" said Chen Hui.

"Yeah! I'm thinking of making a fortune from both ends."

"I feel like my luck has all run out on the fishing net. There's nothing good on this row of hooks."

Wei Jianjun sighed.

"Uncle Wei, do your hands stink?"

After Chen Hui said this, Wei Jianjun became dissatisfied.

"That's my hand odor, this is the sea odor! If you don't believe me, try it yourself."

This row of hooks has just been pulled out.

Wei Jianjun stepped aside while speaking.

Chen Hui stood to his previous position, rubbed his hands, and grabbed the bamboo pole tied to the buoy.

There wasn’t even a single shrimp on the first two rows of hooks.

Wei Jianjun was not annoyed but very happy. He pointed at the empty hook and said, "Look! There is nothing there, right?!"

"Wow wow wow! What is this?!"

"Old Wei, look!"

Wu Shuisheng, who was standing aside, suddenly became excited and turned around to pull the fishing net.

"You're crazy! You scared me!"

Wei Jianjun was startled by Wu Shuisheng's sudden reaction.

Looking closely, he saw clearly what Wu Shuisheng and Chen Hui had fished up.

He blurted out: "Fuck!"

“Hahahaha, three knives! It’s a three-knife fish!”

"This one weighs two kilograms. Not a bit, but it must weigh one and a half kilograms!"

Wu Shuisheng said excitedly, put down the net, and grabbed the fish out to have a look.

"Are there really three swords?!"

"Uncle Wei, it's not the sea that stinks, it's really your hands that stink!"

Wu Dahai was driving a fishing boat, but his heart was already flying out to join in the fun.

With these three knives, this trip out to sea is worth it.

"Chen Hui, you are so disrespectful!"

"If there are a few more hooks and three more cuts, Old Wei will look better."

Wu Shuisheng laughed and let out the anger from Sandao.

Send it to the water tank to live with the naked eels.

Wei Jianjun was very happy, "My hands may stink, but my mouth doesn't stink."

On second thought, that’s not right!
He tried to save face by saying, "How could it be that my hands stink? Wasn't it me who threw the hook?"

Chen Hui smiled and caught several ordinary fish in a row.

Looking at the fish that was about to be pulled out of the sea, he suddenly became excited:
"Uncle Wei, stop studying whether your hands are fragrant or smelly, and start fishing with a dip net!"
