That day when Du Yun was pushing his bicycle home, Yan Bugui suddenly stopped him and asked, "How are you doing? How about the fish I caught?"
"Not bad."
Du Yun took a look and saw that he was holding several fish in his hand, some big and some small, the small ones only weighed a few taels, and the two big ones weighed four or five kilograms.
Du Yun nodded sincerely and praised him. Being able to catch so many fish at once was enough to show that he was very capable.
Since you are here to show off to yourself, so what if you praise him? It is just a word, there is nothing to be stingy about.
"Okay, Mr. Third, your fishing ability is pretty good."
"If I didn't have this fishing skill, how would I be able to catch fish every day? Let me tell you, the fish in the river are scared when they see me..."
Yan Bugui couldn't help bragging and wanted to show Du Yun his superb fishing skills.
Du Yun initially praised him a few words, but when he saw that he couldn't finish it, he immediately said goodbye and prepared to leave.
He is full and full, and he listens to you bragging about how good he is at fishing. Wouldn't it be good for him to go back and rest?
Seeing that Du Yun was about to leave, Yan Bugui quickly stopped him.
"Xiao Du, you are the buyer in the factory, can you collect these fish?"
"Are you going to sell to the rolling mill?"
"I fish every day, and my family has already eaten and vomited. I am not asking for your help."
Du Yun nodded in agreement, how could he not help with this small favor?
Looking at the fish he caught, he said, "But there is really nothing we can do about these small ones. Our factory only wants big fish, and there is no problem if there are many small fish, but no one wants these few."
"There is no way to buy something that only picks up."
"Then you can't leave the problem to me. I can take the fish back to the steel mill, but then the section chief thinks it's too small and refuses to accept it. What should I do?"
Okay, the third uncle has no choice but to keep the small fish for himself and give the two big fish to him.
"Are you paying first?"
"I haven't sold it to the steel mill yet, and you actually ask me for money?
Please, we don’t bring anything like this. Otherwise, you can get the fish yourself.”
"I'm not afraid that you will forget."
Yan Bugui was a little embarrassed and quickly said that he didn't mean it, and watched him leave with the fish.
But this also reminded Du Yun that when there is no meat to eat, fishing is also a good choice.
Of course, he has no interest in fishing. As a veteran of the Air Force, the most likely thing for him to do when fishing is to drink a lot of air and go home.
But we can pretend to be fishing experts.
There are a lot of fish on the shopping platform, but you can’t buy many of them, and the fish are alive, so it won’t be a problem to keep them in the fish tank for a few months.
Let's pretend to be a fishing expert, catch a few fish and go home, keep them alive, and wait to eat them when they're dead. That's no problem, right?
The next day, Du Yun went to Yan Bugui and asked, "Third uncle, I can lend you your fishing pole."
"What do you want a fishing rod for? I still have to use it."
"No, third uncle, I just want to lend you a fishing rod, but I don't agree with this."
"But..."
"I plan to use it tomorrow. You have to go to class tomorrow. How to use it? You clearly look down on me and don't plan to lend it to me."
Yan Bugui had no choice but to nod in agreement, and watched helplessly as he took the fishing line away, feeling heartbroken beyond measure.
He originally planned to go fishing after get off work, eat the small fish himself and get some meat for the family, and sell the big fish to the steel mill, which would also be an extra income.
As a result, Du Yun forcibly borrowed the fishing rod. The most important thing is that even if he wanted to disagree, he couldn't.
I comfort myself in my heart, because I have to rely on him to help me buy my fish, so we have to help with this small favor.
But no matter what he thinks, he still feels at a disadvantage.
When Du Yun came back, there were several fish hanging on the handlebars.
Yan Bugui, who was watering the flowers, was stunned. He never expected that Du Yun could get six fish at once, and they were all big fish.
The fish are tied with ropes and hung on the handlebars, which looks so attractive.
"How did you do it?"
"Of course I caught it, can someone else give it to me?"
Yan Bugui smiled awkwardly.
"Then why are they all big fish? I catch a lot of small fish and rarely catch big fish."
"Of course there are small fish too, in the bucket at the back."
Only then did Yan Bugui notice that there was a small bucket behind the bicycle. When he looked around, there were more than a dozen small fish inside.
It is said that they are small fish, the smallest ones are more than one or two, and the big ones are even close to one catty.
They were so densely packed in the bucket that it looked like there were so many of them. I didn’t expect Du Yun to be an expert at fishing.
Now Yan Bugui felt even more distressed. If he had gone there with a fishing rod, he might have been able to catch so many fish.
But now they all belong to Du Yun, and he feels that he has lost 100 million.
"Okay, third uncle, you go ahead and do your work first. I have to send him back first. He's still alive, so we can't let him die."
This is true, Yan Bugui could only watch Du Yun return with the fish.
Just looking at the few fish he caught, the more I looked at it, the more something was wrong. They were all tied with ropes and hung on the handlebars. How could they still be alive and not die of thirst?
The fish he got back some time could only be placed in a bucket. He had to get a big bucket of water, otherwise he would have died long ago.
I quickly went over to check and wanted to know what Du Yun was doing.
After returning home, Du Yun first went out to fetch a few buckets of water and put them into the water tank, then untied the rope and put the fish in.
Yan Bugui was surprised to find that those big fish were really not dead and were still alive and well.
This time, Yan Bugui was even more surprised. He never expected that these fish tied with ropes were not dead.
I couldn't help but be surprised and said, "How did you do that?"
"How is it done?"
"Of course it's this fish, why is it still alive?"
"Nonsense, if the fish is not alive, how can it be dead? This is the fish I finally caught, so you can't talk nonsense."
Yan Bugui was even more angry. Fish live in water. Everyone knows that it won’t take long to fish them out. No matter how alive the fish is, it will be turned into dried fish.
In the end, you used a rope to lift the fish back just fine. What kind of thing is this? It’s hard to believe no matter how you look at it.
I couldn't help but ask him how he did it and why the fish he got were alive.
If I could have such skills, why would I carry a bucket every day when fishing?
Isn’t it tiring to carry half a bucket of water back for a pound of fish?
"Haven't you ever heard of the bow and fish technique? It's useless for you to be a teacher because you don't even know this.
Everyone looked at it in confusion, wanting to know what was going on and why Du Yun caught so many fish, and the fish were tied with ropes and still jumping around. This is unscientific.
"What is the bowfish technique? Tell us about it?"
"Actually, it's just tied with a rope..."
Du Yun enthusiastically explained to them what the bow fish technique is.
In fact, this is the embodiment of the wisdom of the ancient working people.
In ancient times, without advanced transportation technology, fish could easily die, and dead fish were obviously not as competitive as live fish.
What to do?
The hard-working working people invented this fish bow technique, tying the fish with ropes. The fish tied with a special method can survive for several days without water.
So much so that in places where fish bowing is popular, merchants carry fish to sell.
