Chapter 41 Freshly caught ingredients for dinner [Please recommend]
I will never get tired of watching the sunrise and sunset over the sea.
Chen Yuan set up a deck chair and looked at the red sunset at the end of the sea and sky.
"Damn you, you never get tired of watching the sunset every day." Zhou Sheng yelled, "Come and help with the cooking."
"I'm controlling the boat." Chen Yuan tilted his head towards Erlang and touched the steering wheel with one hand: "What are you having for dinner?"
"Dogtooth tuna sashimi?" Zhang Cheng said: "You can't sell that half of the fish for money even if you take it back."
"Dog teeth and golden guns are not delicious..."
"The fish is here." He Fei was pulling the iron plate and pulled out a snapper: "Is there any beef left?"
"One more?"
"Let's cook some more beef. The beef cooked by Master Zhou is so delicious..." He Fei said with a smile: "There is also my snapper. I will catch a few more to make fish soup."
Yang Xun hung up a string hook and sank to the bottom to fish. After a while, he pulled up a string of fish, including three bright red ones. Jiugong said, "Here are the ingredients."
"Shi Jiugong in the outer sea is pretty good. Let's see if we can catch a few more. Shi Jiugong makes fish soup and steams the sea bream..." Chen Yuan got up and helped peel potatoes and stew beef.
After a while, He Fei caught another snapper: "Two snappers, are they enough?"
"Enough to eat."
The two that He Fei caught were real sea bream, quite big.
The beef stew with potatoes was put into the pressure cooker, and Yang Xun caught a few more fish. The biggest one was Shi Jiugong, which weighed more than a kilogram.
After pulling it up, my eyes bulged.
Yang Xun put his palm next to Shi Jiugong and took a photo: "Is this fish Shi Jiugong?"
Chen Yuan nodded: "There are many varieties of Shi Jiugong, and this one is Deep Sea Shi Jiugong."
"How is the taste?"
"When it comes to making soup, I personally feel it is better than Dongxingban."
"real or fake……"
"Dongxingban is delicious when steamed." He Fei said: "This kind of Shi Jiugong is suitable for making soup. If it is steamed, it will be much different."
"Master Chen..." Yang Xun shouted when he saw Chen Yuan was busy.
"What are you doing?"
"Go back tomorrow or not?" Yang Xun asked.
"Let's wait and see when Meng Jianshan wakes up. If he doesn't get seasick, we can continue... The harvest in the past few days is still okay." Chen Yuan said: "What do you mean?"
"Of course I hope to fish for a few more days. This time I went out and enjoyed it..."
Chen Yuan chuckled: "It mainly depends on Meng Jianshan. If his condition is not good, we will go back in the middle of the night and arrive at the dock tomorrow morning."
"Okay." Zhang Cheng said, "Is there any grouper here?"
"There are...a lot of groupers in the reef waters."
"I'll put a pole in and give it a try," Zhang Cheng said.
"Be careful, don't let the grouper drag the hook into the cave again," Yang Xun said.
"I suffered a loss once, and I won't do it again."
The red clouds in the sky disappeared.
It's starting to get dark...
At night, the evening wind blows. The sea waves roll...
When the stabilizer is turned on, it has some effect. However, in the open sea, the stabilizer of a small fishing boat has limited effect.
Yang Xun caught another fish, put it away, and helped to handle the fish.
Zhou Sheng poured oil into the pot, heated it up and fried the fish. At the same time, he added ginger slices... poured in mineral water, and filled the pot with fish.
Two red sea bream are steaming in another pot and are ready to be taken out of the pot.
After taking it out of the pot, cut some scallions into shreds, pour some steamed fish soy sauce, then heat the oil and pour it on top. The aroma will come out instantly.
Lin Xinhai walked out with a piece of rice in hand and said with a big smile: "It smells so good."
"Dinner will be served soon." Chen Yuan said, "Is Meng Jianshan awake yet?"
"When he woke up, he still felt uncomfortable in the cabin." Lin Xinhai said.
"Then we'll fish for half the night and then go back."
Lin Xinhai nodded: "Okay."
"No, I'm fine. I'll just rest for a while." Meng Jianshan walked out with a very sad look on his face.
"Let's watch it later in the night. Let's eat first..." Chen Yuan turned on the rice cooker, took the rice bowl handed by Zhou Sheng, and filled the rice for everyone.
"I'll eat less." Meng Jianshan said, "I just ate too much at noon."
The sky is getting dark.
Chen Yuan turned on the fill light on the hull and the headlight on the top of the ship.
"Is this fishing delicious?" He Fei looked at Yang Xun with a smile.
"Isn't that fish soup delicious?" Yang Xun also said with a smile.
"It's delicious, everything is delicious...but the best thing is the beef stew with potatoes." Zhang Cheng said with a smile.
Meng Jianshan gave a thumbs up: "Potato beef stew, YYDS."
"Your fishing rod has moved." Yang Xun looked at Zhang Cheng and said.
"Is it true?"
"Really, hurry up and get there."
Zhang Cheng stood up slowly and leisurely, took a look, and saw that the fishing rod was really bent. He quickly ran over with the rice bowl... and pressed the take-up line. In a panic, he almost dropped the rice bowl...
"Hahahaha..." Zhang Cheng shouted excitedly: "It must be a big grouper."
The bait was a live fish weighing 70 to 80 taels. It was possible that Yang Xun had caught a grouper just now using an iron plate to smoke it.
However, this probability is not very high.
Groupers like to eat live bait, that is, things that move. That little fish suddenly sank seventy meters... and was probably dead.
I didn't feel any obvious escaping movement when reeling in the line, but it was very heavy.
"What's hanging down there?" Zhang Cheng looked confused.
"Whatever, just pull it up and take a look..."
In just a while, the main thread had been withdrawn. Zhang Cheng pulled the sub-thread and lifted some, and it was a dark mass...
"Moray eel." Chen Yuan said.
"Wait a minute while I go get the hook." Zhou Sheng said, going back to get the iron hook and hooking up the moray eel.
The moray eels were tangled up in a ball, tangled with the fishing line...
"It's okay, it's okay." Zhang Cheng estimated that the conger eel weighed over thirty pounds, which is considered a very big conger eel: "This conger eel is no worse than grouper."
Zhou Sheng stepped on the eel's head with his feet and carefully unhooked the fishhook with pliers: "Such sharp teeth. Look at this fishing line. If the fishing line is delayed any longer, it will probably be bitten off."
"It's scary." Meng Jianshan said: "I can't stop chewing on the No. 30 braided thread."
"Can you compete with fish?" Zhang Cheng said.
"Why can't we compare..."
"Fish don't get seasick in the sea. Damn it, you still get seasick after taking seasickness medicine."
"Damn...get the fish on the boat and see if it faints."
The two are so funny.
But looking at Meng Jianshan's current condition, it is obviously much better.
Back on the back deck, after dinner, Chen Yuan took a look at the depth of the squid.
It's not dark yet, the squid are all scattered, and they haven't gathered in deep water yet.
Chen Yuan set up the pole, hung the squid hook, illuminated some with a flashlight, then threw it into the seabed and set the line to a depth of 60 meters.
"Master Chen, how deep is the fishing?" Yang Xun asked.
"I fished 60 meters, so I can spread it out a little bit. Sixty-five, fifty-five meters...50 meters like this. The squids haven't gathered in groups yet..."
"I fished sixty-five meters." Yang Xun said.
"I'm fifty-five meters..."
Everyone discussed and allocated the fishing depth.
Meng Jianshan still felt uncomfortable and went back to the cabin after dinner.
