Tao You looked incredulous, as he had never seen such a big bass before, and he didn't know what kind of bass it was.

“Is this true?!

Is there a bass this big?

Most of the sea bass I have seen are only about ten to twenty centimeters long, and the longer ones are 30 centimeters.

But this sea bass is nearly a meter long and must weigh more than 30 kilograms."

Tian Yuanliang nodded with great certainty. He had seen it in previous news reports.

Only river perch has this physique, and he clearly remembers what river perch looks like. Comparing the two, it is obvious that this is Jianghu!

“Yes, it is indeed a bass, and it is a burbot.

I've seen pictures of burbot, and this fish looks exactly like the burbot in the pictures."

The big fish in the bucket had a slender body, flat sides, a slightly wedge-shaped head, and eyes on both sides of its head.

Tian Yuanliang pried open the fish's mouth with his hands, then nodded in confirmation.

"The mouth of a burbot is relatively large, with a row of sharp teeth in each jaw. This fish's characteristics are also a perfect match for a burbot."

His eyes were full of surprise, considering that the price of live sea bass is now eighty or ninety yuan per catty.

This fish weighs at least 35 kilograms. If it is sold, it will fetch around 3,000 yuan, right?!

However, they are rich and have no intention of selling the fish.

Simply because sea bass is the most delicious fish among all fish.

Unfortunately, we are on the highway now, so we can’t slaughter the sea bass, let alone make a delicious sea bass dish.

Tian Yuanliang could only hold out great hope that the highway would be restored tomorrow so that he could drive off the highway before the fish died, find a restaurant, pay some processing fees, and make the fish into a delicacy.

Although this big sea bass was exhausted and could only open its mouth to breathe hard, it would jump occasionally.

Although it was just a slight jump, it was very powerful and could easily knock over the bucket.

The two men moved the bucket to the trunk of the car, and then used various fishing tools to secure the bucket.

“That’s it for now!

It's already 4am, we can still get a few hours of sleep."

After Tao You made sure the bucket was firmly locked, he closed the trunk.

Then he patted his son-in-law on the shoulder and said appreciatively.

"That's pretty impressive! You managed to catch such a heavy fish by yourself."

Tian Yuanliang was editing his Moments to show off how big a bass he had caught.

He could imagine that tomorrow all the anglers in his circle of friends would comment on his post with envy.

"That's not true, I used to be a sports student.

But I was able to catch this fish thanks to you, Dad, for buying me such a good fishing rod!"

Tian Yuanliang patted the fishing rod backpack on his shoulder. This fishing rod was originally a birthday gift from his father-in-law.

When he learned that this was a fishing rod worth more than 10,000 yuan, he was so excited that he couldn't sleep all night. He actually sat on the sofa holding the fishing rod and laughed foolishly all night.

Soon, several photos, accompanied by his own bold words, were posted on the circle of friends.

Tian Yuanliang only felt a warm current flowing in his heart. With anticipation and excitement, he fell asleep in the passenger seat unknowingly.

......

The next morning, they were awakened by the noise outside the car.

Tian Yuanliang couldn't wait to open his Moments, and sure enough, there were a bunch of comments, and the number of comments reached more than thirty.

At a glance, all you see is envy and admiration.

Seeing this, he was in a very good mood.

He opened the car door and saw many people outside.

At this time, the rising sun made my body feel slightly warm, which was much more comfortable than being in the car.

"I have to see how the fish is doing. I don't know if it's dead."

The temperature on a winter night was only around minus two degrees Celsius. Although there was some water in the bucket, it was not as much as the water in the river.

The water in the bucket is cooler, while the water in the river can reach a temperature of one or two degrees.

Tian Yuanliang was a little worried. If the big fish was frozen to death, all his joy would be in vain.

The value of a dead sea bass will be greatly reduced, and even if it is made into a delicacy, the taste will be greatly reduced.

As soon as you open the trunk, you can smell a slight fishy smell.

He unloaded the debris that was holding the bucket in place and then lifted the bucket out.

I saw that some scales on the big fish's skin were stained with blood. Although the big fish looked like it was dying, it would occasionally open its mouth, as if it was trying hard to breathe.

"It won't hold out for much longer! In three hours at most, this fish will die here."

At this time, Tao You also walked down from the back seat of the car. Seeing his son-in-law taking the bucket out of the trunk, he also came over to take a look.

"So what should we do?! We don't have any tools to kill fish here, let alone cooking utensils."

Tian Yuanliang sighed, feeling very sorry.

"Alas, there's nothing we can do! We caught this fish in vain, we can't make it into a delicacy.

It’s impossible for people on the highway to buy ours!

They had no way to handle this big fish.

It can’t be eaten and it can’t be sold. Even if you release it now, it will die.

Alas, it was all for nothing.”

At this moment, a little girl appeared out of nowhere and reminded in a childish voice:

"You can sell this fish to Brother Jiang Yang. He'll make delicious food out of it!"

Tian Yuanliang looked in the direction of the sound and saw a little girl standing directly behind him. She was not even as tall as his waist, staring at the big fish in the bucket with her eyes wide open.

He didn't take it seriously, thinking that what the little girl said was just childish talk and should not be taken seriously.

And Niuniu continued:

"Brother Jiang Yang is so far ahead! He has a lot of kitchen utensils in his RV. I saw him making roast duck yesterday.

I ate the roast duck he made yesterday, it was delicious!

My brother is so talented, he will definitely make this fish into a delicious delicacy!"

The little girl's words made Tian Yuanliang's eyes light up, and his expression quickly changed from sadness to joy.

He immediately squatted down, took out a piece of chewing gum from his pocket, handed it to Niuniu, and asked:

"Little sister! Are you telling the truth?

Are you sure that the brother Jiang Yang you mentioned has a motorhome far ahead, and that it has a lot of kitchen utensils?"

Before Niu Niu could reply, Huang Wei hurried over.

"Hey, I told you not to run around, so why are you here? What if you said you were lost?"

Huang Wei looked very angry. If he lost Niu Niu, he would be the biggest sinner of the whole family!

He squatted down and pinched Niu Niu's little round face.

Then he raised his right hand as if he was going to spank Nuonuo's little butt.

The little girl quickly hid behind Tian Yuanliang, as if she was afraid of being beaten.

"I didn't run around, I just came to take a look out of curiosity.

Look at this uncle, he caught such a big fish."

"He didn't know where to kill and cook fish, so I told them that Brother Jiang Yang could do it!"
