Chapter 198 Filling the boat with fish
"Dongzi? Are you still there? I thought you went back."
Just in time for the rain!
Ye Yaodong looked at Ah Guang with bright eyes, he was indeed his good brother, and he showed up when he should.
"Ah Guang, hurry up, do you still have strength in your hands? Climb over and help me pull this net up."
"Huh? Oh, here we come."
Actually, both he and his father couldn’t lift their arms anymore, so there was no point in staying any longer, and they were planning to return.
But, that’s the father-in-law in his mind, the uncle, who can do it even if he doesn’t have the strength.
Father Pei leaned the boat over so that the two boats were close together so that Ah Guang could pass by.
Ah Guang crawled over with hands and feet together, slapped the muscles on his arms, walked to the front and back and shook his hands, and then helped to pull together.
The back teeth sockets of the three grinning were almost crushed, and it took a lot of effort to move the fishing net up little by little.
As soon as they moved up, the three of them fell to the ground with a plop, and they really lost their strength.
"It's okay, you guys, how can you catch marlin with just such a broken net?" A Guang saw that there were big holes in the fishing net with broken threads everywhere.
"It doesn't matter if you pull a big fish, Ma De, I finally pulled it up, and I wanted to give up just now."
"Should I thank me for coming in time?"
"Yes, thanks to your eight generations of ancestors!"
Father Ye glared at him, "How did you talk?"
"Ah, it's okay, Uncle, we always talk like this." A Guang also said happily.
"My father is rare and strange!"
"Hahaha, are you going back now?"
"Yes, it's getting dark, and my father and I are useless. I planned to go back, but I saw a marlin coming next to me. If I didn't catch it, I felt sorry for my hard work all day."
Ah Guang kicked the marlin that was still in the net, "It's very good, but it feels smaller than the one I caught. We also caught a marlin just now, and it took a lot of effort."
Ye Yaodong glanced at him with envy and hatred, "Can you stop telling me to make me jealous?"
"Hahaha, you can't catch too many young and old. The boat is full of fish, and today is really a rewarding return. After walking and going back, I am exhausted. I guess I will eat with my feet at night."
I really want to eat with my feet, I don’t want to move a finger, and I can’t move it anymore.
But if he couldn’t move anymore, he had to get up and drive the boat back. The marlin had to be bled.
But when he climbed up to the side of the marlin with the knife to bleed it, his hands were shaking, and the knife fell straight down, hit his thigh, and slid along the thigh to the root of the thigh...
His legs trembled in shock...
A **** was cut in the crotch in an instant, and the knife was coldly pressed against his vitals...
"Fucking..."
Ye Yaodong felt that his crotch was chilly, so he took the knife away in shock. He sharpened this knife a few days ago, just for the convenience of killing fish!
"Why are you so surprised?"
"I almost lost my third leg."
Father Ye didn't believe him. He just kept grinning all day long and knew how to fool people.
Ye Yaodong glared at the marlin in front of him, cursing, "Is it easy for me to catch you? You still want to give me a knife? Fuck..."
He tidied up his trousers, and this time he squatted halfway, patted the back of his right hand tremblingly, gave it a full set, and threw it aside casually.
Don’t even think about a single room, it’s too late and it’s full.
After finishing his work, he stood up again and looked towards the sea. At this time, it was already dark, but there was still a faint light to see that many ships were missing on the sea in the distance, but there were still many ships staying there. Some boats that came late were reluctant to leave.
As their boat traveled farther and farther, the sky became darker and darker. Apart from Ah Guang's boat, there were several boats returning in the same direction with them. He could basically determine that they belonged to the surrounding villages.
Everyone got lucky today.
It wasn't too exciting to watch, Ye Yaodong could only sit slumped in a corner to rest, his naturally hanging arms became heavier and heavier, feeling more and more like it wasn't his own hands.
The closer to the coast, the fewer boats in the same direction. I saw boats, either docking at the pier in the town, or docking at the pier in a nearby village. The boat that the middle-aged woman fell into turned out to be the next door to them. village.
There were only six or seven scattered boats going forward, and Ye Yaodong discovered at this moment that there were two more belonging to his village, and one belonged to Uncle Lin Jingye.
Before, there were too many boats, and they couldn’t see clearly in the dark, and they didn’t pay attention to it. Only now did they find out that Uncle Lin and his son were also working in that sea area today.
Father Ye greeted him with a smile, "Are you chasing sardines today too?"
"Good guy, so you are here! Guoyuan is here too?"
Pei Guoyuan is the name of A Guang's father!
"No, of course I am the one who gets rich." Father Ye said triumphantly.
When Ye Yaodong heard this, he also thought of something. His father had to pay more money for such a big harvest today. He had put in all his efforts today, and it was not as easy as before.
Looking at the boat full of sardines, these can weigh several thousand catties, and can be sold for hundreds of dollars, and the dozen or so big fish can be sold for a thousand yuan, right?
And nineteen gannets!
This trip directly earned all the capital of this boat, and this boat is too expensive to buy!
He calculated it in his heart, his face was full of smiles, and he was so happy that his arm hurt after a few days.
After the five fishing boats docked one after another, they docked neatly and arranged in a row. At this time, there were not many people on the shore, only a few women were worriedly waiting for the man who had not returned home.
Even Lin Xiuqing couldn't help but ran out worryingly and waited, it was too late, Ye Yaodong had never come back so late after going out to sea, she was so worried about what happened to him, she couldn't sit still at home, she couldn't sit still Yes, after the two children are fed, I will tell my sister-in-law to see, and then rush out to wait.
Mother Ye was also worried. Generally, fishing boats like theirs would come back before dark, even the eldest and second child, but his father and the third child were still gone so late, which made people have to worry about what happened to them.
Fortunately, there were other women waiting on the pier, so they were relieved a lot, and comforted themselves in their hearts. There might be a lot of goods today, so they stayed for a while.
The women on the shore were not relieved until they saw the fishing boat in the distance.
As soon as the boat docked, everyone flocked to them, asking questions with concern, but before they could speak half, they were all stunned by the fish caught on the boat, and their unfinished words were stuck in their throats.
"Ah... Adong... why are there so many?" Lin Xiuqing stared dumbfounded at the silver-white sardines on the fishing boat, feeling dazzled, and blinked a few more times.
Mother Ye couldn't even close her mouth in shock, "This... have you encountered a school of fish?"
"It's more than just a group, it's a storm of billions of sardines. Luckily, we have encountered it. I have been reluctant to leave, so it has been delayed until now."
The other fishing boats beside them were talking and gesticulating excitedly.
The women were overjoyed when they heard this, and their mouths were crooked. How much is this full ship worth?
Those who have a lot of eyes will secretly glance at other people's boats to see if they have more fish than their own?
"Mother, hurry up and get all the baskets from Ah Cai, and quickly get these fish ashore."
"Yeah?"
Ye Mujing reminded him so that he ran away quickly. If he was taken by others later, they would have to wait. It was so late, who wouldn't want to finish it and go home early? Who is not hungry waiting here?
Lin Xiuqing also hurried to help.
The others also reacted now, and they all followed to get the basket.
Fortunately, there are several purchase points at the terminal, and the other two ships are not fixed with them to receive the goods, otherwise the ships will have to wait for several hours to receive the goods and weigh them.
After the basket was delivered to the boat, Ye Yaodong asked Lin Xiuqing to go back first. He was afraid that she would fall when he saw her running so swiftly behind Mother Ye.
"The two children are watched by my sister-in-law. I'll help you load the goods here. It's okay."
Ye Yaodong glared at her, "You go and call the eldest brother and the second brother to help together, otherwise no one will lift this basket after a while."
He and his father are no longer able to do it. The longer the time, the more sore the arm is, and the more painful it becomes, the harder it is to lift it. It will just hang there straight, and it needs to be wiped with tea oil when going back.
Lin Xiuqing was willing to go back and call for help when she heard that it was not because she was not allowed to help.
"Go slowly, be careful on the road, remember to watch the road, don't fall, my headlight will take a picture for you."
"Understood, long-winded, I'm not a child, there are so many people, I'm not afraid of being laughed at..." Lin Xiuqing looked at the people next to her with some embarrassment, but fortunately they were all beaming, and didn't listen to Ye Yaodong's straightforward words When it comes to caring, most people nowadays are very reserved.
While loading the fish, Ye Mu happily asked how they caught it? Are there a lot of sardines in the sea? Are there many boats? I also asked what kind of fish are those big fish piled up in the corner? Is it worth it?
Father Ye was worried that there was no one to share with, Mother Ye's words directly touched his heart, he excitedly told her what he saw and heard from the early morning to the afternoon, Ye Yaodong added
Mother Ye and the woman on the boat next to her kept exclaiming, and after exclaiming, they happily asked about the details again.
