Chapter 450 If you can’t catch fish, dig lotus roots! Lao Suntou: Fishermen often do this!

 Lin Xu looked at all the equipment that his father-in-law bought.

Not only does it have a water pump, it even has a battery that can store almost two kilowatt hours of electricity.

This equipment is a bit disadvantageous for fishing. You should go fishing.

If you drain the puddles and small ponds left after the tide recedes, you may be able to catch big fish, which is much safer than fishing.

After reading it, the group drove to Linji Food.

At the entrance of the store, Lao Suntou was already waiting with a fishing bag and Aunt Sun in outdoor clothes.

Aunt Sun never understood Lao Suntou in the past, but the last time she ate hot-boiled mutton in the store and heard her husband talk about his experiences of narrowly escaping from death while arresting criminals, she felt heartbroken.

Now not only do I no longer nag about fishing, but I am also very supportive.

Today she specially brought a crucian carp rod and prepared to fish with Lao Suntou.

In addition to Lao Sun and his wife, Xie Baomin's family has also arrived. At this moment, Xie Yufei and Xie Yuhang are eating leftover fried cabbage wedges and fried sugar cakes from breakfast in the store, and Su Peipei is eating yellow rice and jujube cakes.

"Everyone is here? Let's set off then?"

Not many people went to the Ginkgo Garden this time, just three families.

Originally, Chen Yan, an Air Force veteran, also wanted to go, but today Ren Jie's aunt celebrated her 60th birthday. As her niece-in-law, Chen Yan had to go to celebrate her birthday and meet relatives of Ren's family.

The parents of both parties have already nodded in agreement, and the rest of the engagement and marriage will naturally become a matter of course, so relatives can meet when they should, and there is no need to be secretive.

As for Zeng Xiaoqi, she is going to a TV station to give a seminar.

With the popularity of "Eating World", the satellite TV channel wants to include this column so that people all over the country can watch this food program, and it is no longer limited to the Yanjing area.

This is a good thing for Zeng Xiaoqi, and Zhen Wensheng has already nodded in agreement.

However, a leader at the TV station felt that Zeng Xiaoqi was too young and inexperienced to be the person in charge of the satellite TV channel column, and wanted her to give up her position as the person in charge of the "Eating World" program.

According to the other party's wishes, as a host, just show up and host properly. The program team will manage the scheduling and leave it to more experienced people.

Obviously, someone took a fancy to "Shi Wei Ren Jian" and the advertising value behind it, and wanted to keep it in their hands.

Zeng Xiaoqi naturally disagrees.

So she didn't care about fishing today and went to Taili to have a fight.

In order to boost Sister Xiaoqi's momentum, Lin Xu told the person in charge of the TV station yesterday that as long as the person in charge of the program team is not Zeng Xiaoqi, he and Geng Lishan will immediately withdraw from the program.

At the same time, authorization for personal portraits, title inscriptions, etc. will be terminated.

In addition, the chefs signed by Happy Media will no longer appear in TV programs. These chefs include but are not limited to Linji Cuisine, Diaoyutai, Yanjing Hotel and other chefs in the back kitchens of major restaurants in Beijing. They are all created by Chen Yan in Cheng Jianshe

Signed at the apprenticeship banquet.

"It would be great if CCTV poached Sister Xiaoqi away, so we wouldn't have to suffer this anger."

Shen Jiayue sighed softly and put the food packed by the braised food department in the car.

Before the soldiers and horses move, food and grass go first.

When fishing in winter, the fish don’t have to open their mouths, but people can’t go hungry.

This is the basic quality of a qualified fishing veteran.

Lin Xu said:

"It's the same everywhere I go. I was a director with a sharp tongue. Isn't it because the leaders were too bossy, so I chose to resign?"

"Then sister Xiaoqi can only accept the anger?"

"If this negotiation fails, she can also resign and let Sister Yan talk about cooperation with the video platform. If we delve deeper into the Internet, it may not be worse than the TV station..."

Lin Xuda was about to say a few more words when he suddenly saw Geng Lele walking from a distance.

This girl was wearing a light gray down jacket and furry ear warmers, and was holding a roasted sweet potato in her hand, eating it as she walked this way.

Didn’t Professor Cui say during dinner yesterday that there would be an experimental class today?

What about this girl...

"Lele, did you skip class?"

"No, don't slander me, Brother Xu, I came here after completing the experiment... How can you do something like fishing without me?"

She came over and handed the other roasted sweet potato she was holding to Shen Jiayue:

"This roasted sweet potato uses tobacco potatoes, which are very delicious. Sister Yue, please try it."

"Wow, thank you Lele."

Shen Jiayue took the roasted sweet potato, peeled off the skin, took a bite, nodded and said:

“It’s really delicious, sweet and fragrant.”

By now everyone had arrived and everyone started to get on the bus. Xie Baomin's family happened to be in the same car. In Lin Xu's car sat Shen Jiayue, Geng Lele and Dundun, and Lao Sun and his wife sat in Shen Guofu's car.
p>

After everyone got on the bus, we started to set off.

Lin Xu drove in front and led the way, while Shen Guofu and Xie Baomin drove behind.

Looking at the butt of Maisha Rui's car, Old Shen tutted and said:

"This car is really nice. When I'm not busy, I'll go to the experience store to have a look. If possible, I'll buy one. I don't have an SUV at home, so it's inconvenient to go anywhere."

Since the original Big G was shipped to Yinzhou, Shen Guofu has disposed of several sports cars he bought in the past. Now, no matter at home or at work, the garage is empty.

It's time to buy two more new cars.

After flying all the way, not long after, everyone arrived at the gate of the Ginkgo Garden.

As soon as the car parked, Mi Lan drove the Wuling Hongguang mini from last time and opened the door for everyone.

The door opened and several cars filed in.

Shen Guofu exclaimed:

"There are so many ginkgo trees, it's nice here, they look good."

Lao Suntou is more concerned about the size of the pond inside. If it is really more than 20 acres, then he can take out the 7.2 meters that is not often used in the fishing bag and try it today.

When fishing in small rivers and ditches, you can easily catch the middle of the river with a five-meter pole.

The seven-meter-two long pole will be thrown to the other side accidentally, so it is rarely used. However, if you want to catch big fish, it is more powerful to catch the big fish with a long pole, and it will be easier to walk the big fish.

When we arrived at the row of houses in the middle of the ginkgo garden, everyone parked their cars and pushed the doors open.

The snow that fell in the past few days has basically melted, and the ground in the ginkgo forest is covered with yellow leaves. It looks particularly beautiful with the blue sky above.

"Everyone is welcome to come and play here. You can stroll around here. The fish pond is at the back. There is less water in winter now, but it looks beautiful in summer."

Xie Baomin asked curiously:

"Are there any fish?"

"Some, yes. Every spring we put some fish in it. We usually eat it ourselves or let tourists fish for fun. We haven't cleaned the pond in five or six years, and we haven't fed it, but it still looks good.

Okay, during the National Day, a tourist caught a carp weighing 16 to 17 pounds."

Sixteen or seventeen pounds?

This number made the eyes of several fishing veterans present brighten.

I originally came here to relax, but since there are fish, what are you waiting for?

Start!

Opening the trunk, Lin Xu took out two fishing bags, which belonged to him and Shen Jiayue. He would also install a hand rod for Geng Lele later so that she could feel the boringness of fishing.

In the car next to him, Xie Baomin took out his fishing bag, slung it over his shoulder, put on a baseball cap, and carried a four-liter thermos cup.

Regardless of whether you can catch fish or not, you have to take good care of yourself.

The body is the capital of fishing.

Without a good body, even if you catch a ten-pound fish, you won’t be able to catch it.

Han Shuzhen and Su Peipei were not interested in fishing, but seeing everyone wanted to go, they followed them.

Walking on the wooden plank road made of pine, everyone came to the depths of the ginkgo forest and saw the pond inside.

The pond is in an irregular oval shape, and the entire water area is about 30 acres. There are several small ponds that are drying up around it, and there are dry lotus leaves in them.

"There are some lotus roots planted in the small pond. The workers here occasionally dig some for stew or cooking. You can dig some to take back when you leave. This pond is for noodle lotus roots, and the ones over there are crispy lotus roots..."
p>

Mi Lan introduced the situation here, which made everyone feel happy again.

I will definitely not be an Air Force veteran today. Even if I can’t catch fish, I can still dig some lotus roots.

Fishermen, not the Air Force!

Lao Suntou looked at the water area, observed the weather and other conditions, and took the lead in analyzing:

"It's windy today and the weather is clear. There's no problem with the air pressure. There's a slight breeze blowing, and the dissolved oxygen in the water will definitely be fine. As long as the sun rises and the temperature of the water surface rises, it'll be another blast."



Aunt Sun found that when Old Sun Tou came to the water, he seemed to be a different person.

His eyes were bright and he was mumbling words, as if an agricultural expert had come to the fields.

"Old Sun, are you a fisherman who is making noises?"

"Fishermen are like this. They get excited when they see a place suitable for fishing... In this place, today's catch will definitely not be less than five kilograms."

Not only was he excited, Xie Baomin also whispered like an old expert:

"Tan fishing for beach, beach fishing for pond, fishing with grass but no grass, fishing without grass but grass... I think the small pavilion in the south is a good place, there should be big fish there."

After saying that, he took the two children together.

Xie Yufei and Xie Yuhang were not interested in fishing at first, but after arriving, their hunting genes became active in their bones, and they wanted to try throwing two rods.

Su Peipei followed, took a short video with her mobile phone and posted it on Moments:

"Time flies so fast. In the blink of an eye, the two little ones have already caught up with their father."

As soon as I posted it, a colleague commented:

"What a beautiful place. Is Teacher Su going on a trip?"

Su Peipei replied:

"I have to go to work tomorrow, so I don't have time to travel. I went with Lin Xu to a ginkgo garden near Zhanggezhuang. There are many ginkgo trees in it, and they are very beautiful."

[Recommended, Yeguo Reading is really useful. Download it here.yeguoyuedu. You can try it soon.]

My colleague didn't expect it to be so close, so he immediately sent a message asking:

"Teacher Su, do you accept tourists there? It's such a beautiful place. I really want to take my children to take a group of photos."

Receive tourists?

Su Peipei didn't know either. He looked at Mi Lan not far away and asked:

"Mr. Mi, my colleague saw the photos here and wants to come over to play. Do we accept tourists here? How much are the tickets?"

Mi Lan didn't expect tourists to come at this moment, she smiled and said:

"We usually have acquaintances come here to eat and relax. There is no admission fee. If your colleagues want to come, just send them the location."

Upon hearing this, Su Peipei sent the status to her colleagues.

After sending it, she looked at Mi Lan and asked:

"Why doesn't it charge a fee for such a good place?"

"There are too few tourists, and there is no time to promote it, so it is a bit more Buddhist."

Not far away, Lin Xu, who was playing with the nest materials, was slightly surprised when he heard this. He really didn't expect that this little guy Dundun would actually play a role as soon as he arrived and help attract customers here.

There will be many opportunities to come and play in the future, maybe one day this place will become popular.

I have to find time to persuade Mi Lan later and let her start charging.

Otherwise, if there are too many people, it will be noisy, and the mood of the game will be deteriorated. After collecting the fees, you will have money to hire some security guards, and hire a few cleaners. These expenses can be paid from the tickets.

The nest materials were mixed, kneaded into a ball and thrown into the selected fishing spot. At the same time, a small nest was made in the shallow water area next to it, so that Geng Lele could catch small fish with a hand rod.

After finishing the nest material, he started to organize the line group, while Lao Suntou had already finished everything, including the bait.

At this moment, I was hanging bait and whispering to Aunt Sun some precautions for fishing.

As for Shen Guofu, he is still adjusting his multifunctional fishing chair.

"Are you okay, Xubao?"

"Lele's hand pole is ready and can be used for fishing. I use red worm bait."

After saying that, he handed the three-meter-two fishing rod to Geng Lele:

"I've adjusted the float for you. Just fish in this area surrounded by aquatic plants. I've spread the nest material."

"Okay, thank you, Brother Xu!"

Geng Lele, a new fishing veteran, took the fishing rod and did not fish immediately. Instead, he picked up Dundun beside him and whispered:

"The holy fire is shining, the holy fire is shining brightly, please protect me from the Holy Lord and have a good fishing!"

After saying that, she put down the pier, threw the string hanging the bait into the water, and waited silently while holding the fishing rod.

After Dundun came down, he lay down on the fishing bag and started to bask in the sun.

When Lin Xugang was arranging Shen Jiayue's fishing rod, Geng Lele found that his fish float moved and then sank.

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading!

She quickly pulled it out, but because she had never caught a fish before, she was not sure of her strength. Not only could she not pull the fish out, she almost fell into the water.

Shen Jiayue saw it and hurried over to help. The two of them grabbed the fishing rod and finally caught a crucian carp slightly smaller than a palm.

According to the standards in the fishing circle, this should be larger...medium plate crucian carp?

"Wow haha, it's not in vain that I skipped class. I caught a crucian carp when I came up, so I asked who else was there!



At this time, Xiao Mo Gutou was as arrogant as the leader of the Shark Gang. He akimbo, holding the fish, took a photo and posted it to Moments, ready to show off, but as soon as he posted it, there were more comments below.
p>

"Come back with a thousand-word review, in English."

Ahhhhh, I got carried away!

If I had known earlier, I would not have taken photos, but now that I have recovered, I still have to write a review in English...

Geng Lele sighed like a young adult, his eyes filled with vicissitudes of life.

Shen Jiayue said with a smile:

"Well, Lele, you even lied to us. Even if you skipped classes in high school, you will also skip classes in college."

"I did that experiment secretly last week. It was quite boring..."

Geng Lele sighed again, frowning.

Seeing her like this, Shen Jiayue asked:

"What's wrong?"

"I just posted a post on WeChat to share my catch, and my godfather saw it. He asked me to write a thousand-word review...in English."

Uh...

Shen Baobao took the fish guard and threw it into the water, put the crucian carp in, and then said:

"Looking at the embarrassed look on your face, is it difficult to write a review in English?"

Geng Lele nodded and sighed again:

"I don't know if I can still find the English review templates I saved in the past... I'm really careless. I have to block my godfather first next time..."

Template?

Shen Jiayue thought Geng Lele was worrying about English review, but she didn't expect that this girl was thinking about the template for English review.

It seems that I have done this kind of thing a lot in the past.

Not far away, Shen Guofu finally fixed the fishing chair. Han Shuzhen on the side said:

"It's like the multi-functional chair for the elderly in the hospital. When you get old, I'll give you a chair like this, and then I'll push you to go fishing by the water."

Shen Guofu said while arranging the fishing rods:

"Then forget it."

"What? Are you afraid of tiring me?"

"No, I'm afraid that if I say something wrong, you'll suddenly push me into the water... Hey, don't pinch me, it's just a joke... I'm the wrong wife."

Han Shuzhen then let go:

"My Lele has already caught one, but you professional players haven't even started fishing yet."

"Don't worry about being late for a good meal, and don't be in a hurry."

After Shen Guofu sorted it out, he opened the finished bait, hung it on the fishhook, threw the rod and started fishing.

He didn't make a nest because he didn't think it was necessary.

Soon, other people started fishing one after another.

On the other side, Aunt Sun looked at the motionless fish float in the water and asked curiously:

"Lele hit the fish as soon as he threw it. Your analysis was very clear. Why didn't the fish float move at all?"

Lao Suntou smiled:

"The biggest fear of fishing is the commotion of small fish. It is actually a good thing that it has not moved. This means that there are no small fish making noise below, which is a sign that big fish are about to catch... Be patient and don't be anxious. The more anxious you are, the less likely you are to catch fish. Wait until you calm down.

When there is no hope, fish will come unexpectedly... Fishermen often do this."

Just as he was talking, Geng Lele's fish float sank and he hit another crucian carp.

The heavily armed fishermen didn't even move the float, but Geng Lele, who only had a hand pole and didn't even have a pole support, caught two crucian carps in a row.

Several adult fishermen looked at me and I looked at you, and the scene was awkward.

Shen Jiayue sat on the horse, holding her chin with both hands, looking at the motionless fish float and asked:

"Xubao, if we can't catch this, what are we going to eat for lunch?"

Lin Xu smiled and said:

"Don't worry, I won't make you hungry. At the worst, you can use a shovel to dig out a few lotus roots and stew them with meat. It won't be a hassle."

Stew?

This is good, there are fish to eat fish, but there is no fish to stew meat.

As long as I don't go hungry.

Mi Lan said:

"Yueyue, don't worry about food. There are a lot of free-range chickens in the southwest corner of the garden. Just let Auntie slaughter two big roosters later. Can I make you hungry?"

Shen Jiayue stuck out her tongue:

"Of course I'm not worried. I'm just trying to encourage everyone so that they don't catch any fish."

Mi Lan smiled, squatted next to Dundun and scratched the little guy's chin:

"I brought more than 20 kilograms of meat. Xiaolin, what do you think is better to eat? And this lotus root, can you make some unique dishes?"

Distinctive?

Lin Xu thought for a while and said:

"There are many ways to eat lotus root, and there are many special dishes, including lotus root balls, lotus root meat cakes, lotus root boxes, lotus root stew, glutinous rice lotus root..."

When he spoke, Geng Lele, who was replenishing his own food, couldn't help but swallow his saliva.

Shen Jiayue also looked very greedy.

Lin Xu saw this and said with a smile:

"Why don't we stop fishing and dig lotus roots, get some food, and sit here in the cold. It's a good time to stretch our bodies and feel the happiness of the lotus root diggers."

Let my senior brother-in-law and Lao Suntou compete openly to see who is the real fishing master.

This proposal immediately won the approval of Geng Lele and Shen Jiayue:

"Okay, okay, I just want to feel the joy of digging lotus roots."

The two of them casually pulled out the fishing rod and prepared to put it away and leave.

Just when Lin Xu was about to get up, the fish float on the water suddenly moved. He subconsciously grabbed the fishing rod, and a huge force was immediately transmitted...

Fishing!
