Chapter 241 Less greedy, more worry (seeking monthly ticket)
"How did you get in there? When did you get into the water?"
The drama queen shrank her head and remained silent.
Doesn't it just miss its hometown in the sea too much? After the friends fell asleep, they got bored, so they went into the water to catch fish and have a good meal.
Of course, it knows that if it strays too far from the fishing boat, it will get lost if it cannot catch up. Therefore, it is smart and always hunts and plays not far from the front of the fishing boat. It is having a good time and unknowingly squeezes together with many fish, shrimps and crabs.
He was dragged up by a large fishing net.
Her innocent little eyes were wandering, and she raised her front paws to rub Xu Suizhu's clothes flatteringly.
"Oh, it turns out to be our blessing!" Mrs. Lu also recognized it, took it into her hands with a smile, and said dotingly as if she were looking after her own child, "I can't help but want to go play when I see the sea.
?You have to be careful then. Fortunately it’s us. If it were another fishing boat, you would be meat on someone’s chopping board!”
The drama turtle was so frightened that he trembled and simply lay on Mrs. Lu's hand and pretended to be dead.
Seeing how well it acted, everyone couldn't help laughing.
Mrs. Lu gently put it into the seawater basin on the side.
When you get on the boat, you don’t need to soak in salt water. You can just bring the sea water up from the bucket. You can soak as much as you want and take a proper sea water bath.
After settling the little guy, Mrs. Lu returned to Xu Suizhu. Looking at the small mountain of fish, she couldn't help but worry: "How to deal with so many?"
I feel greedy when I can’t eat seafood, and I feel anxious when I have too much. Humans are such a contradictory body!
"Not to mention two days, you may not be able to finish it in two months."
Xu Suizhu advised her not to worry and pointed to the nail plate: "There is a refrigerator below. Keep some of what you eat today and freeze the rest."
The cold storage area under the deck is large, and it is also divided into quick freezing and chilled refrigeration.
So, except for Xiao Wu who was still on duty in the cockpit, everyone else came over to help sort the fish.
Of course, it can also be sent directly to the refrigerated or frozen warehouse through the conveyor belt at the edge of the deck without sorting.
But the older generation of fishermen are accustomed to sorting first. After all, there are big ones with big prices and small ones with low grades. Xu Suizhu followed his aunt's idea.
The group of people got into busy sorting.
Even Xu Xiuyuan came on the deck, and the little bun was handed over to Granny Liu to look after.
In fact, Chen Jianguo and his son wanted to say to Xiao Wu: Brother! Go and help too! We will definitely drive the boat steadily. You don't have to be so nervous, really!
As soon as his eyes touched Comrade Xiao Wu's serious face, the father and son stared at each other, and no one dared to speak.
After a while, Chen Jianguo simply asked his son to go on the deck to help. There was no navigation, and there was no need for people to hold binoculars to inspect the route.
"Be smart!" Chen Jianguo told his son, "If you do the dirty work, you and I are enough."
"Hey!" Chen Jianguo's son had long wanted to go up to the deck to get some air. Hearing this, he ran up happily.
With the addition of a strong boy of 17 or 18 years old to the sorting team, the efficiency has naturally improved a lot.
While everyone was sorting, they kept asking questions like curious babies.
"What kind of fish is this? I've never seen it before."
"This crab is so beautiful, but its big pincers can pinch people, Cuicui, Zhuangzhuang, be careful..."
Xu Xiuyuan, who often followed men out to sea, became an expert at this moment. While sorting them quickly, she answered: "This is the horse-faced fish... that one is called tongue sole... yours is a flower crab..."
Everyone gathered firewood with great enthusiasm. In less than half an hour, they sorted a large net of seafood into boxes and sent them to the cold storage and freezer respectively.
Needless to say, lunch must be a seafood feast.
r />
The electric stove that converts light energy is turned on, and a pot of assorted seafood is stewed, and then a pot of crabs and prawns are steamed. It is so fresh that everyone can't stop eating.
Chen Jianguo and his son took turns eating, and Xiao Wu and Xiao Xu also took turns.
When Chen Jianguo sat down to eat, he found that the person sitting next to him was Comrade Xiao Wu, who had been staring at him all morning. He was very embarrassed at first - there was always the illusion that a prisoner on the loose was eating at the same table as a police comrade...
But when we tasted the delicious seafood, we gradually started to let go. Finally, we drank soup instead of wine and clinked the bowls with each other.
"Thank you for your hard work!"
"No, no! It's harder for you!"
"..."
"Everyone has worked hard, come on, come on, eat more!" Xu Xiuyuan greeted everyone with a cheerful smile to eat with ease.
She really didn't expect that the new fishing boat would be so convenient for fishing.
In comparison, small fishing boats are indeed far behind.
Not only is it tiring to raise the net manually, but the harvest is far from satisfactory. Not to mention there are spacious cold storage and freezers. If you encounter tuna like last time in the future, you will not have to worry about being unable to preserve it.
Knowing this...Xu Xiuyuan almost wanted to say that she should change her fishing boat as soon as possible.
But then I thought about it, trucks were equally important.
Otherwise, if such a large amount of fishery is transported by outside vehicles, it will not only attract people's attention, but also cost a lot of money in freight.
It seems you still have to make money! Only when you have money can you buy this and that.
With this goal in mind, Xu Xiuyuan is full of energy.
Previously, I had advised my niece to rest more and not to bother fishing, but now she had to give her chicken blood injections. After eating, she squatted in the cockpit and asked Xu Suizhu to teach her how to operate.
"Just teach me how to operate it, and I'll try it. If it works, you can go and rest, and I'll do it!"
Seeing her aunt's enthusiasm, Xu Suizhu could not dampen her enthusiasm. Anyway, the operation is simple and she learned it in just a few moments.
"Is it easy? I'll try too." Mrs. Lu also came to join in the fun.
In the end, except for Chen Jianguo and his son who were sailing the ship, and Comrade Xiao Wu who strictly guarded his post and watched them, everyone else touched the control panel.
Even the two little ones, Cuicui and Zhuangzhuang, knew which button to press to get off the net and how to get it up.
After that, everyone took turns to operate it. The small mountains of fish were pushed onto the deck one by one.
Of course, sorting is more difficult, but when you think about it, it's all money, money, no matter how hard it is, it's worth it.
So I caught, ate, and stocked all the way, and by the way, I popularized the types of marine life...
More than thirty hours, which originally seemed like a long time, passed by without even realizing it.
I was originally worried that there would be more typhoons in August, so Xu Suizhu paid attention to the weather forecast during those two days. Fortunately, the previous typhoon had just passed and the next one had not yet formed. It was a smooth journey back, with blue sky, white clouds, and blue sea. The scenery was breathtakingly beautiful.
Feeling relaxed and happy.
When we vaguely saw the large and small islands within the jurisdiction of Yupu County, everyone felt that time passed so quickly.
But even if it’s fast, I still miss home.
Especially Wu Meili, who had been away from home for so many days for the first time, was extremely excited. On the contrary, the two younger ones Cuicui and Zhuangzhuang were calmer than her.
Yes, after being away for so many days, with food and fun every day, my mother by my side, and my friends around me, who would care about going home?
So Xingfu Ju Island is electrified, and the tall street lamps and diffuse milky yellow halo are like a guiding light in the twilight, leading them back to their homeland without any hindrance, without the need to identify each island.
