Going back to the old days of hunting at sea

Chapter 837: The bad fate comes in waves

Pick up the larger one and play with it in your hands.

The shape of this snail is very good, round and plump.

The texture on the shell is also very beautiful.

It's very heavy, definitely weighing at least two or three kilograms.

"Strange, how come I can always find a few snails every time I go out to sea recently?"

"Before it was lobsters, now it's conchs, the bad karma keeps coming in waves."

Chen Hui muttered to himself.

Loosen a net bag and put two big quail snails in it.

Holding a large bag of oysters and two large conches, I searched around the area and found two yellow-mouthed quail snails, one large and one small.

After tying up everything, I felt it carefully.

There were lots of fish, lots of shrimps, and lots of crabs around, but nothing particularly big that stood out.

Chen Hui let go of the last net bag and grabbed a bag full of various seafood.

Finally, a big fish weighing two or three pounds was caught.

He swam back to the fishing boat and secretly hung it on Huang Xiu Lian's fishing hook.

"Wow! Wow wow wow wow!"

"That Dahua, right?! Come and help me."

A fish weighing two or three pounds can make quite a noise when struggling.

Huang Xiu Lian suddenly became flustered and habitually called out to Wu Dahua who helped her get the fish hook in the morning.

"coming!"

Wu Dahua was boiling water nearby.

He stood up immediately after hearing the sound, took a look at the extent of the bending of the fish hook and exclaimed in surprise: "Wow! What a big fish."

Wang Xianyong also caught a big fish in the morning.

Wu Shuisheng took a fishing net to cooperate and put it aside after use.

Wang Xianmei immediately strode over, took out the scoop net and said, "Here comes the scoop net!"

"I'll pull it up, and then you catch it right away."

Wu Dahua said this as he slowly reeled in the fishing hook.

"Dahua, be bolder and quicker," Wang Xianyong reminded.

"okay!"

Wu Dahua quickened his movements and pulled the fish to the surface of the water.

Raise your arms upward.

The fish was pulled out of the water and struggled hard to break free from the hook.

Wang Xianmei's net bag followed closely behind and just caught the big fish that had escaped from falling.

The people fishing by the boat breathed a sigh of relief and cheered at the same time.

"You two have a good understanding of each other."

Huang Xiulian looked at the two of them and teased them with a smile.

Others followed suit.

"This fish is destined to have this disaster, and it can't escape it."

Chen Hui sighed softly.

Return to the fishing boat again with big and small catches.

He put the net bag in his hand into the water tank, then wrapped in a bath towel and hurried back into the cabin.

"Hahaha, this Chen Hui."

"You said he knew it was cold, but he was fine in the water."

"You think he doesn't know how cold it is? He got on the boat with gritted teeth."

Li Yanhong saw Chen Hui running over like a big rat and said with a laugh.

"This young man is really capable. It's easier for him to work in the sea than for me to work in the vegetable fields." Wang Xianzhi said.

This time when they went out to sea together, his opinion of Chen Hui changed immediately.

In the past, I just thought he was thoughtful and smooth in his speech.

Now I admire his ability.

"Chen Hui, what are you going to do with these three bags of stuff you brought back? Are you still going to open the blind box?"

Huang Wenqian saw Chen Hui coming out and pointed at the water tank.

She missed out on the first batch because she was unhappy, so this time she wanted to join in and have some fun.

"No more blind box games, these are all for us to eat at night."

"The conchs in that net bag are rare, both large and small."

Chen Hui came over, wiping his hair.

She took out four quail snails from the net bag. "Such big snails, they must be delicious, right?" Wang Xianmei blurted out.

"Why do you only know how to eat? All day long!"

Wang Xianzhi complained about his own sister.

He took a snail from Chen Hui and observed it carefully: "This snail shell is also very beautiful."

"Second brother, when did you start studying conchs?"

"Why are you pretending to be so artistic?" Wang Xianmei retorted unconvinced.

Wang Xianzhi smiled.

Li Yanhong took over the conversation and said that she was influenced by her mother-in-law.

When I saw this kind of thing in the past, the most I would say was, "It's so big."

Now I will carefully observe the size, texture, direction of the pattern and so on.

"Chen Hui, how much do you want for these snails?"

"I think my mother-in-law would like it. If it's not expensive, I'll buy it," said Li Yanhong.

"This kind of snail is not very expensive. These four..."

"The big one is one hundred, and I'll give you the smallest one." Chen Hui said after thinking for a while.

The texture of these quail snails is average, and the added value of the shells is small.

Quail snails are not a rare species.

The reason why I can buy one for a hundred yuan is simply because it is big enough.

"That's okay, I can still afford it!" Li Yanhong nodded.

Wang Xianzhi smiled and reminded: "We can just leave the shell for her, and we can eat the meat ourselves."

"Then I'll sponsor a chicken. These snails are cut into thin slices and boiled in chicken soup. They are so delicious."

After Chen Hui finished speaking, he couldn't help swallowing.

Seeing his performance, several people also began to look forward to the snail meat.

After all, among so many people present, Chen Hui should be the one who knows the most about food.

"Today's harvest is almost complete, so let's go back."

"We have to prepare barbecue and stew chicken soup in the evening, which will take a lot of time," Huang Xiu Lian suggested.

Chen Hui glanced at the time.

When we went back at this time, the tide had just receded, making it convenient to get off the boat and onto the shore.

Looked at Wu Dahua.

He and Wang Xianmei were watching the conch.

He knows a lot in this area, and when he talks about the areas he is familiar with, he looks confident.

Wang Xianyong likes to talk to Wu Shui about things in the 1940s and 1950s.

I couldn't get a word in because he wasn't even born at that time.

"Okay! Then we'll set off back."

Chen Hui said this and walked towards the driver's cab.

He controlled the fishing boat, turned it around at the appropriate position and headed back.

The fishing boat moved forward for a while.

Wang Xianzhi came in peeling an orange, and asked Chen Hui about the situation at Wu Dahua's home.

"Brother Wang, why don't you go to his house for a cup of tea after the fishing boat docks?" Chen Hui suggested.

Wu Dahua's family was one of the poorest in the village.

Wang Xianmei's family is one of the few wealthy families in the county.

There is quite a big difference between the two families.

"Yeah, we thought so too."

"You must be busy. You need to go back and prepare dinner."

"We were thinking about whether we could ask your uncle to come along. Just my eldest brother, my uncle Shuisheng, and I, the three of us will go."

Wang Xianmei had taken a detour before, and they were also very cautious this time.

"My uncle will probably agree."

"It's a pity that I can't join in the fun and have to go home to prepare dinner."

Chen Hui smiled self-deprecatingly.

"There are so many lesbians here, they won't all be available for you to do it."

"You do the technical work, and they will help with the fire and water."

Wang Xianzhi joked and went out to talk to Wu Shuisheng.

Chen Hui controlled the fishing boat to enter the port smoothly and stopped steadily at the dock.
