Those dolphins are also very flexible. Seeing so many fishing boats around them, they don't care about the fish schools.
Ye Yaodong and the others just cast one more net than others, but the two nets cast later were not as much as the first net cast in front.
There are not many fish in the sea, and those who should run have run away, but the fishing boats on the sea are still crowded, and there are still fishing boats coming in the distance?
After he laughed twice, he quickly drove the boat out of the pile and headed for the shore.
Father Ye was pouring out the fish from the fishing net. Seeing that there were still boats coming, he was shouted at him: "Is there any fish?"
He smiled and said, "There's soup!"
"So fast, doesn't it mean that the dolphins are chasing the school of fish? You have caught up with them? Oh, you got rich again?"
"Send a woolen fortune. Today's trawling net can't haul two baskets of fish, and they are all worthless. I almost lost the gas money and couldn't make it back. So hurry up and come back early to save money at sea. Oil. I took the opportunity to catch two or three nets just now, and left, left... you will pass without a hair."
Ye Yaodong saw that his father had finished speaking, so he hurried away, leaving behind a group of commentators.
After returning to the shore, they realized that everyone came back early today, because the harvest was bleak, and there was no need to continue to waste time at sea.
And they have replenished fish schools twice, and the harvest is already pretty good now.
The crowd also said that they had a good harvest today. The fishing boats generally came back early today, and only a few were still outside. It was because there was no cargo, so they docked early. Only two or three scattered boats were able to harvest.
"Did you catch a lot of the fish over there just now?"
"The school of fish is still around their boat, it's not a good fishing..."
"Ah, yes, yes, those dolphins were going to drive the fish to the open sea just now, why did they turn around and drive the fish to your boat?"
"Yeah, why did those dolphins drive the fish towards you? Is there any trick here?"
"Huh? My boat seemed to pass by them just now, and I seemed to see A Dong hitting the water with two sticks? Is there something to say here?"
"Yes, yes, is there something to say? Otherwise, why did those dolphins turn around after driving the school of fish?"
It took them a long time to sort the goods and weigh them, and they had to wait for Ah Cai to settle the accounts. After a long time of calculation, they were too late to go home, and they were blocked by people who had just returned from the sea, and they all surrounded them asking questions.
"Tell me, let the folks in the village tell everyone, you won't lose anything if you say it, you are all begging for life at sea..."
"Yes, everyone has seen it anyway, so tell me..."
Seeing so many people surrounding them curiously, Ye Yaodong said simply and generously: "There is a saying that hitting the water with a wooden stick can attract dolphins, because the sound of hitting the water with a wooden stick is very similar to the sound made by a fish that dolphins like to eat most." .”
"In the future, when you find schools of fish, you will just hit the water like this. If there are dolphins nearby, they will run over directly, and they also like to drive the schools of fish away. The crowd drove over."
"Like this? No wonder, why did the dolphin turn around suddenly?"
"So it's like this... No wonder it's all around your boat..."
"Understood, I have learned it now. If I encounter a school of fish in the future, it will be like this, and I will save myself from being run away by the school of fish."
"Adong is getting more and more excited, and he knows more and more. We old fishermen don't know as much as you. Your father will be able to enjoy the blessings in the future. The three brothers are all very promising, they all have their own boats, and they can make so much money. ..."
"Yeah, we have been in the sea for decades, and we don't know as much as him. I underestimated it before..."
"Ye Lao San is blessed. When he grows old, he will have three sons to take care of him, so he won't have to worry about food and drink..."
"Yeah, how can you be so good at giving birth and teaching? The three sons are all very promising. Some time ago, I heard that each of them came back with an income of 10,000 yuan, isn't it?"
"That's better than the 10,000-yuan household that raised pigs in the newspaper last year. They only earn 10,000 yuan a year by raising pigs. You earned it in two months. Oh...you are really developed..."
The more everyone talked, the more excited they became, as if they were the ones making money.
Although there is a local saying in their locality that everyone gathers firewood and the flames are high, and people say that you are lucky~earn money~rich, etc., the more you say this, the more prosperous your luck will be, and the richer you will be, quite To help you sing high.
However, it’s over if it’s too exaggerated, and there are a lot of pink eyes. I don’t know which **** wrote the report letter I received before.
Ye Yaodong quickly explained, "How can there be so much? It's an exaggeration. It seems that there is no need for expenses. When you are away from home, where is it convenient and easy to save at home? You have to take care of everything outside, and you need money for everything. Spending money is like running water. You don't need to eat and drink at home. Money, can you eat and drink outside without money?"
Father Ye also quickly said: "It's a lot of expenses outside, and the workers' wages are also high. We have spent one or two thousand in the past two months outside. Also, my eldest and second child are in a partnership, and the two share half and half. , but not much, just a little bit better than trawling at home."
"That's a lot of money. A Dong is now a role model for the young people in the village. Everyone talks about you every day."
"Yeah, that kid in my family is also lazy, and I don't mean to learn from you. He is still lazy and has no progress. It is not easy to marry a wife if he wants to. Yes, or they are full of pockmarks, there is no decent..."
Ye Yaodong couldn't help but twitched the corner of his mouth, comparing him to a short winter melon?
When he doesn't know their son?
It's long and shabby, short and fat, and people give it the nickname Shorty Winter Melon. If you are diligent and willing to work, you can still be a decent wife. You have no capital, no strengths, and a lot of problems. What can a wife look like? Can you compare with him?
Fortunately, there are some knowledgeable people in the crowd, so there is no need for him to refute, someone will speak up.
"Don't compare your son with A Dong. Anyway, the parents are good-looking, and now they are promising. If your son can earn so much money, why can't he find a wife? You should marry your son a wife first. Let's talk about it? Don't think there is something wrong with other girls, just be able to give birth to children and pass on the family line..."
"That is to say, what kind of pot goes with what kind of lid, and the tortoise goes with the bastard..."
"Bah, what nonsense are you talking about? My son has hands and feet, why do you want to find something wrong? What if a child is born with a lame and pockmarked harelip?"
"It won't be inherited. If it is inherited from generation to generation, then it's okay?"
"Then I have to find a decent one..."
"Hehe~ Anyway, it's the same when the lights are turned off..."
Ye Yaodong listened to everyone talking and swayed, and slipped out of the crowd.
"The rumors are still being passed on endlessly, where did they figure out the million-dollar household?"
Father Ye whispered: "But your current property is indeed worth ten thousand yuan."
"There are several invisible ten-thousand-thousand households in our village, and I'm not bad for one. Keep a low profile. Besides, I don't have ten-thousand-thousand-thousand households when I fight for cash. I have to add up all my assets."
"Several? Who are there?"
Ye Yaodong glanced at his father, "Think for yourself!"
These days, although it is not easy to earn a ten thousand yuan household, it is not too rare. It is just that some people are better at hiding and keeping a low profile, knowing that they can't show the limelight.
And some people have a little achievement, just want to hear praise, just want everyone to know.
"Forget it, it's none of our business, you still think about whether you want to use sticky nets? The weather is getting colder every day, and it is often windy, and the time to go to sea will be less, you can figure it out."
"Fuck, it's a day to be able to go to sea. At least I can subsidize my family and earn a bite to eat. Last year, I made a good income with sticky nets, but this year it's inconvenient to borrow machines from Uncle Lin. Let's use manpower first. Check it out."
Father Ye nodded, "When I was drinking with your Uncle Lin some time ago, I also heard him talk about it. He said that last winter he earned only a mediocre amount of trawling nets, and he plans to do more trawling nets this winter."
"Well, when I go back later, I will find someone to order dozens of sticky nets. The quantity is too small, and I have no idea. If I want to do it, I will do more."
"You can figure it out yourself." Father Ye is quite at ease with him now.
Although there are not many empty hooks in longline fishing today, and there are as many fish hanging under the pulled up main line as the door curtain, most of the fish caught are mackerel and dull fish, which are not very valuable.
The fish schools that the dolphins chased were even bigger in size, some were bigger, some were pitifully small, and many of them were sardines, anchovies, and balang fish.
Some fish are worth a little money, and some are worthless. Although there are a lot of fish, they only sold for more than 40 yuan today.
This is still piled up according to the amount used. Recently, there are fewer valuable goods, and he also left 200 catties of Balang fish to take back to dry the fish.
The northwest wind blowing these days is very suitable for drying dried fish. The dried Balang fish at home was dried last year, and it has bottomed out. They will tear two pieces of dried Balang fish and put them in when they cook noodles. This is also considered Their unique cooking method of seaside people.
"Remember to ask my mother to come over and help kill the fish when I go back later."
"Um."
Looking at the trolley full of three big baskets of fish, no wonder Mr. Ah Qing said that he could kill all the fish that most people should kill in one day.
His mother is very happy to be able to dry so many dried fish. People on the beach are happy without fish, and people from that era are basically a bit of a hamster.
