At the beginning, Xiao Wandou was still a little confused and anxious.
After all, Dad said that he would wait until evening to pull the cage out of the water.
But now, it is obviously not evening yet.
However, when he pulled the shrimp pot out of the water and the end with the rope tied appeared in front of his eyes, all these things disappeared in his heart, and what was left was only excitement and joy!
"Shrimp! Shrimp! Lots and lots of shrimp!"
Before Xiao Wandou could speak excitedly, the children watching nearby began to shout loudly and jump up and down.
Xiao Wandou's face turned a little red due to excitement.
Originally, he wanted to shout a few times when he was excited, but after hearing the excited shouts of his friends beside him, he suppressed this idea.
He didn't speak either. Except for a slight blush on his face, he didn't show much joy on his face.
However, those bent eyes betrayed all the joy in his heart.
Xiao Wandou continued to pull the rope, and soon the entire shrimp pot was pulled in front of him.
Immediately, he grabbed the head of the cage with his right hand and began to put away the shrimp cages that could be put together piece by piece.
When the water comes out of the shrimp cage, you can hear a lot of noises. These are the sounds made by the shrimps in the cage, after leaving the water, struggling blindly in panic and colliding with other shrimps.
This sound can only be heard when there are many shrimps in the shrimp pot. When there are few shrimps in the shrimp pot, these sounds cannot be heard at all.
After taking out the entire shrimp cage and dragging it ashore, Xiao Wandou could no longer hold back when looking at the harvest in the cage. His little face was filled with joy.
The harvest this time is really great!
The harvest is mainly concentrated in the upper part of the cage.
There was a piece of net made of linen about fifty centimeters long, and there were no holes in it like the rest of the net.
At first, Little Wandou didn't understand this, and didn't understand why her father didn't make holes in this section as well.
If some holes are left in this section, wouldn't it mean that with one more hole, more shrimps would be caught?
But such doubts have completely disappeared now.
Because these shrimps entering the cage have personally shown him the true purpose of this section of the cage.
No wonder everyone present was so happy. There were actually too many shrimps in this section of the shrimp cage!
Gathered there, there is a big knot!
Not even five pounds!
There are some in other places in the cage, but they are just a few here and there.
When we got to the end of the cage, there were a lot more shrimps there, weighing almost half a catty.
However, with the presence of those shrimps at the front, the shrimp at the tail are not so conspicuous.
It is normal for such a situation to occur, because there is a circular passage in each section of the cage.
One end is big, the other is small.
The smaller end faces the head end, and the larger end faces the tail end.
After the shrimp enters the cage, they will usually crawl from the larger end to the smaller end.
After walking through the connected passages, they came to the front of the shrimp pot and gathered there.
As for the shrimps at the end of the shrimp pot, they are retrograde.
The shouting and shouting here was quickly noticed by Han Cheng.
After standing there and listening for a while, Han Cheng couldn't help but smile and shook his head. These little guys have never seen the world. How long did it take for them to lower the shrimp pot? It can only be four hours at most.
In such a short time, even if there are many shrimps in the river, how many can be put into the cage?
With this thought in his mind, he picked up a clay pot from the side and walked out.
All the way to the river, after seeing clearly the harvest in the shrimp cage, Han Da Shenzi, who just claimed to have seen the world, suddenly became a little big-eyed.
Although he knew that there were more shrimps in the river before, he never expected that there would be so many!
How long did it take to enter the cage, and so many were caught!
One cage can catch more than in later generations, using shrimp pots of the same length and catching more in a day and night in the river!
"First untie the rope that binds the mouth of the cage, then put the mouth of the cage into the clay pot, then lift up the tail end of the cage and pour the shrimp inside forward."
Han Cheng put back the surprise on his face, and then spoke out with a smile on his face.
Little Wandou next to him was a little scared when he saw his father coming over. After all, he didn't listen to his father and pulled the cage out in advance, fearing that he would be blamed by his father for this.
But when I saw Han Cheng's reaction and heard Han Cheng say such words, I immediately felt relieved, and my whole body couldn't help but feel relaxed.
He didn't know what to do, so he immediately happily followed what Han Cheng said.
In a short time, I poured the shrimps from the cage into the jar, filling most of the jar!
Next, Han Chenggong stopped taking action and let Xiao Wandou do the operation while he gave verbal guidance...
The flame under the stove burned brightly, illuminating the entire room.
The oil lamps placed on the windowsill were not very bright because of the firelight.
With a "stab" sound, some green onion segments were thrown into the pot, and as soon as they were choked by the hot oil, an extremely delicious aroma of fried onions filled the room.
After a while, half the basin was cleaned and the marinated shrimps were poured into the pot.
With the flipping of the spatula and the continuous heating of the iron pot, the shrimps quickly turned red and the aroma began to spread...
"Daddy eat."
"Witch Eat"
"Mom eat."
While eating, Xiao Wandou faced the shrimps in front of her. Although she was already salivating, she still held back her saliva and picked up the shrimps with chopsticks, first picking up the shrimps for Han Cheng and others.
After picking up shrimps for several people, Xiao Wandou started picking up shrimps for himself.
When the little guy started eating the shrimp, he devoured it so voraciously that he didn't even spit out the skin of the shrimp, and just mixed it with the shrimp meat and ate it.
After eating a dozen or so in a row, the speed slowly slowed down...
Autumn is not just about crab fatness. After summer and autumn when food is abundant, even shrimps have become much fatter, with a lot of meat on their bodies, which taste very chewy and have a very good texture.
In the past, people in the tribe would more or less catch some shrimps when they lowered the fish pots, but the fish pots were ultimately fish pots and not shrimp pots. Compared to the shrimp pots made by Han Cheng, the shrimps caught were still
Much less.
In addition, there were no iron pots in the tribe before, and Han Cheng, a man who could eat and cook, did not cook this dish himself. Therefore, except for a few people in the tribe, most of the others
, I don’t have much affection for shrimp, and I don’t think how delicious this thing is.
But it's different now.
Now that there is an iron pot and Han Cheng, the number one cook in the tribe, is doing it himself, shrimp, a food that was not very conspicuous or valued in the Qingque tribe in the past, has suddenly entered the attention of everyone in the tribe.
middle.
This is certainly not a good thing, at least not for the shrimps in the river.
In the past, there were so many fish in the tribe's river, but now there are far less. So much so that the tribe built fish ponds a long time ago to artificially breed these creatures.
Now because of Han Cheng, the divine son of the Qingque tribe, the people of the Qingque tribe have once again turned their attention to the river. There is no doubt that the shrimps living in the river will be unlucky...
With Han Cheng, the Son of God, personally demonstrating how to make shrimp pots, people in the tribe could easily imitate shrimp pots of the same style, and even some skilled craftsmen could make improvements on this basis.
Of course, because the outside of the shrimp pot is made of linen cloth of not very good quality, it is difficult to promote it on a large scale due to this material.
However, there are still many skilled craftsmen in the tribe, especially in weaving.
Restricted by the material of linen, some people in the tribe felt that linen was too precious and could not bear to use it on a large scale, so some people soon used soft branches and broken bamboo strips to weave structures.
The same shrimp pot.
Of course, such a shrimp pot cannot be retracted due to the strong material. Therefore, it is impossible to stand on the shore and throw it into the water like a shrimp pot made of linen.
.
However, there is no shortage of boats and rafts among the tribe. With these tools, these shrimp pots can be lowered into the water very well.
I don’t know if it’s due to light transmittance or something like that, but the shrimp pot made of woven bamboo and wood doesn’t have as good a catching effect as the one made of linen by Han Cheng.
But even so, it is far better than the previous method of feeding shrimps into fish cages.
And because the quantity is large enough, after cages of shrimp are poured out and gathered together, they look particularly pleasing!
At least it can be done so that the people in the main tribe can have a more enjoyable meal.
When there was a craze for catching and eating shrimps in the Qingque Lord tribe, Han Cheng, the guy who started this craze, was not in the tribe.
The sky is high and blue, with white clouds scattered in it, which is particularly beautiful.
At the Qingque Shipyard, located a few miles downstream of the Qingque Tribe, the various facilities are much improved compared to when Han Cheng left.
Of course, the most eye-catching thing is the big ship moored on the shore!
The hull is tall, and even if part of it is buried in the water, it is still difficult to cover up its towering hull.
Parked by the river, it looks like four or five houses to one!
For people in this era, such a behemoth is quite shocking!
Accompanied by Lame, who looked much older than before, Han Cheng climbed up the ladder along the bow to visit the large sailing ship.
Obviously, Lai et al. have put a lot of effort into the sailing ship.
The deck is made extremely thick and smooth, and the thick wooden boards fit perfectly together.
The joints were bonded with fish bladder glue.
Of course, adhesion is not the main purpose. The most important purpose is to use fish bladder glue to seal the gaps that may exist and prevent possible water seepage.
Tung oil, which has excellent anti-corrosion effects, has not been forgotten. The wood on the deck has also been brushed with several layers of tung oil.
Because the ship is large enough and cannot be shaken by ordinary wind and waves, it is much more stable to walk on it.
Although it can't be called walking on flat ground, it is far better than those small boats in the tribe that will sway with a little force.
Deck, mast, ropes, guardrails on the side of the ship, unraised sails...
Han Cheng looked at these things one by one, and then, led by a few lame people, he went down the fixed ladder all the way down to the cabin to visit.
"This one is for residents, that one is for storing things, and this one is for storing water..."
After arriving at the cabin, Lame introduced Han Cheng as he walked.
Han Cheng was just like he was on the deck before, most of the time he followed Lame's introduction and watched, and sometimes he would ask aloud about some things.
After a detailed visit, almost two hours had passed.
"...This time, you have really made a great contribution. Thank you so much for your hard work. I am really satisfied that you were able to complete such a good work in such a short time and with the current conditions in the tribe!
To be honest, even I didn’t expect you to be able to complete it so well at the beginning!”
Under the afterglow of the setting sun, Han Cheng stood at the stern of the boat, looked into the distance for a while, and then spoke to the lame and others around him, with special emotion and sincerity.
"You are all heroes of the tribe!"
Han Cheng said sincerely to the lame people.
At the end of his speech, Han Da Shenzi couldn't help but stretched out his hand and shook hands with the lame people sincerely, and did not let go for a long time.
Han Cheng basically never used the handshake ceremony with people in his tribe.
It is precisely because of this that when used against Lai and others at this time, it will become extremely precious and make Lai and others excited...
Three days later, many people gathered at the Qingque Tribe Shipyard.
Han Cheng, Wu, Senior Brother, Bai Xuemei, Hei Wa, Tietou, Shitou, Yuan and other prominent people from the Qingque Tribe in the main tribe all came over.
Everyone stood here, facing the same direction.
What appeared in front of everyone was none other than the Qingque Tribe’s first truly large ship!
Red cloth was tied around the railings of the ship, and red flowers were tied in some places.
The side of the ship facing Han Cheng and others, which is closer to the center, is also covered with a layer of red cloth...
