Chapter 131 Reservoir to catch fish
"Sanda, go and search carefully in the crevices of the rocks. Since there is one, there should be another one." Uncle Ding Yun took the turtle caught by Sanda and told Sanda to look carefully again.
"Brother, let's look for it again. This is more exciting than catching fish. It takes more than a bucket of fish to find one turtle. I haven't seen any wild turtles for a long time."
The color TV stopped catching fish, so I searched for them one by one along the cracks in the rocks.
Wu Fei released a total of fifty or sixty soft-shell turtles into the reservoir. The small ones weighed a little more than a kilogram, and the large ones weighed about two and a half kilograms.
During this period of time, Wu Feilu fished out more than ten fish one after another, and there should be a lot of soft-shelled turtles inside.
But it was impossible to catch them all. Yesterday, Wu Fei heard that people at the bottom of the reservoir caught a turtle weighing almost two kilograms in the creek.
It is said that the man took it to the town that day and bought it for more than 800 yuan. Wu Fei can definitely say that the turtle ran out of the reservoir.
The reservoir has been releasing water during this period, and although the spillway is surrounded by barbed wire, the turtle is not an ordinary fish, it can crawl on dry land.
In all likelihood, they climbed over the embankment from the reservoir and ran into the creek below the reservoir. Unfortunately, they entered the wolf's den as soon as they left the tiger's den, and they were still the type of people who jumped directly into the frying pan.
In addition to the turtle that was caught, there should be many that escaped. The reservoir covers a total area of more than 100 acres. Although all the water has been drained now, those turtles that have been raised on the farm for a period of time have
He has great mobility and can get up very quickly.
The turtles released from the farm are already two or three weeks old. Who knows where they will go. Besides, now that the temperature is slowly starting to drop, some turtles may dig a hole somewhere and bury themselves.
Got up and started hibernating.
Wu Fei didn't care about the two guys who were looking for soft-shell turtles, and started fishing with his brother-in-law, Er Meng and the others.
Although we caught several times with fishing nets, there were still a lot of fish that slipped through the net. A few people stood on top of the bamboo rafts. The fish around the bamboo rafts panicked for a while, and then swam toward the deep water pit in the middle.
Wu Fei took the bamboo pole and supported it to row towards the two big pits in the middle. At this time, the big water pump started running again, and the water level slowly dropped at a speed visible to the naked eye.
As the water level slowly dropped, the fish around them slowly swam into the deep pit with the current.
Wu Fei put the bamboo raft next to the big pit. When the three of them saw a fish swimming towards them, they fished it out with a net. They usually caught one fish accurately and soon caught a lot of fish.
"Xiao Fei, we can catch a lot of fish from the reservoir this time. Not to mention the fish caught a few days ago, we can catch at least a thousand catties of fish today. At that time, you paid 30,000 yuan to buy the fish in the reservoir.
Fish, it’s a huge profit.”
Ermeng picked up a large grass carp weighing more than ten kilograms in a net bag and said to Wu Fei.
In fact, the fish in the reservoir have been sold for one to two hundred thousand, but no one in the village knows it.
I knew that Wu Fei's family had caught fish many times, and each time they delivered it to big hotels in the city. Although they knew they could sell it for a lot of money, they never imagined that it would cost tens of thousands of yuan each time.
Besides, every time I catch fish, people from the village come to buy them, and they only sell them for hundreds or even thousands each time.
"We caught a lot of fish, but for these fish, we spent tens of thousands in labor and diggers to dig fish ponds. It would be amazing if we could fill this hole."
There are so many fish here, and it's impossible to hide them. But there is no need for Wu Fei to hide it from everyone. Since renting the reservoir, Wu Fei's family has spent a lot of money in the reservoir, and everyone knows this.
Although everyone has always known that there are a lot of fish in the reservoir, no one is gossiping. Even if someone is talking, it is said that Wu Fei is willing to invest in the reservoir.
They are even willing to spend money to buy truckloads of fodder, and even install a fishing net to catch fish. Who in the rural fish farming community would buy fodder specifically? They all go to the fields to cut some grass themselves, or just feed them.
Leftovers from some crops.
In fact, the fodder Wu Fei bought didn't cost much. What he spent most was digging fish ponds and buying fish fry.
However, if Wu Fei didn't have the cheating device of the farm, he would have spent 30,000 yuan to buy the fish in the reservoir, not to mention losing his pants. At least he didn't want to make any money, and he had to pay a lot of labor for it.
However, I have the cheating device of the farm. Over this period of time, in the name of the reservoir, I have sold almost 200,000 fish without everyone knowing it.
Even turtles are sold for a lot of money, and these are all based on the contracting of the reservoir. If this reservoir is not contracted, even if there are tens of thousands of fish in Wu Fei's farm, they cannot be sold openly for money.
.
"The reservoir has not been drained for so many years. I wonder if we can catch a few big fish in the big pit today. The biggest fish found in the reservoir in the past few years is the one weighing more than 40 pounds that was caught by a middle school teacher a few years ago.
If you are a carp, then you have become a carp spirit."
Watching the water level continue to drop, soon there was only a large pit with water left in it, and the large grain bucket containing fish on the bamboo raft was more than half full, containing at least four to five hundred kilograms of fish.
There are already a lot of fish in the bucket, and it is very likely that these fish will be killed if you put them in. Therefore, you must first bring these fish to the shore, quickly replace them with fresh water, and put the fish in the fish pond.
Now, several big silver carps in the bucket have begun to turn white. If it had been left for a little longer, they would probably have died.
Besides, the bucket is almost full of water now. At the beginning, Wu Fei could row the bamboo raft by himself with a bamboo pole. Now, with his brother-in-law, they can no longer row together, and the entire bamboo raft is stuck.
In the mud.
In addition, except for the two large pits where there was water, the other places were all mud. The fish, water, and three big men on the bamboo raft weighed at least more than a thousand kilograms together.
After finally pushing the bamboo raft out of the big hole, it got stuck in the mud and couldn't move. Fortunately, my father had anticipated this situation and tied two long ropes to one end of the bamboo raft.
Seeing the bamboo raft sinking into the mud, Wu Fei called out to the shore, and everyone who had been prepared pulled the rope together. The bamboo raft soon started paddling in the mud.
When the bamboo raft was a little far away from the big pit, the three of them jumped off the bamboo raft and pushed forward hard behind the bamboo raft.
The bamboo raft suddenly lost more than 400 kilograms of weight, and the people on the shore pulled it up much faster.
