Chapter 85 Return
Uncle Li and Uncle Jiang came to report the good news.
"We're pretty lucky."
"It's not that Qingzai was provoked, he also came to the net in the middle of the night."
"Hehehe, I finally caught a red sea bream."
It is very unsafe to work near the coast at night, so many fishermen will not take the risk of working at night unless they are in the deep ocean.
Kangzi picked up the intercom and said, "That's great. I like eating cod the most."
Uncle Li laughed: "That's easy."
"We're not far away. I'll bring you a few later."
"You can eat it as a midnight snack."
Kangzi quickly said, "No, no."
Uncle Jiang interrupted, "Why are you being so polite to us?"
"Although the prices of garfish and red friend fish are similar, the meat tastes better."
"We'll come to you right away."
Kangzi was about to speak.
Ye Qing said first: "Let Uncle Li and Uncle Jiang come."
"It's a good opportunity for them to try the freshest tuna sashimi."
Kangzi nodded and shouted into the intercom: "Uncle Li, Uncle Jiang, come over."
Zhang Jun came out of the cold storage and said, "The wine is chilled too."
When going out to sea to fish, fishermen generally do not drink alcohol.
But I was really happy to have caught so many yellowfin tuna today, so I could have a drink.
Ye Qing nodded and busied himself cutting sashimi.
After the yellowfin tuna is bled, deboned, skinned, and headed, there isn't actually much edible meat left.
Ye Qing is even more extravagant.
Only the large abdomen is retained.
The meat from other parts can also be eaten, but the taste will be worse. He just wanted to reward himself today, so he packed up all the meat from other parts and froze them again.
Ye Qing’s knife skills are pretty good, and the slices are cut to the right thickness.
The pink flesh is so appetizing just by looking at it.
Get the dipping sauce.
He dipped it lightly and ate it first as a sign of respect.
Not long.
Two fishing boats came over.
Uncle Li, Uncle Jiang and several fishermen from the same village got on the boat. They did not come empty-handed, they all had something in their hands, basically all fish.
After saying hello.
Everyone gathered in the cabin to have a midnight snack.
Red Friend Fish Soup, Steamed Red Friend Fish, Braised Red Friend Fish, Pan-fried Garlic Fish...
A dazzling array of options.
It's a fish feast anyway.
Instead, a plate of green vegetables is the most eye-catching.
at last.
Ye Qing brought out the tuna sashimi.
Uncle Li took a look and exclaimed in surprise, "Hey, this sashimi is a bit special. It's pink and tender. At first glance, it looks like tuna."
Uncle Jiang glanced at him and said, "Why aren't you drunk yet? Where did you get the tuna meat?"
Others joked, "Looks like Lao Li is craving tuna."
Uncle Li scratched his head and shouted angrily, "See for yourselves if they look alike."
Everyone looked closely and was stunned.
It does.
So similar.
Uncle Li picked up a piece and took a bite. "Oh my god, it tastes very similar. My son-in-law treated me to it a while ago, and the taste was similar."
"No, it tastes better in my mouth now."
After hearing what he said, others also felt strange. Lao Li is a real man, and what he said is definitely not nonsense.
Ye Qing said, "Everyone, eat."
Everyone picked up their chopsticks.
"Oh my god, this tastes amazing."
"It looks too much like tuna."
"Look at this sashimi, it's so fresh and smooth when you put it in your mouth."
"It tastes like ice cream, it melts instantly."
Everyone exclaimed and looked at Ye Qing in unison.
It looks and tastes very much like tuna meat, but it's more than just a likeness.
Kangzai and Zhang Jun couldn't help laughing.
Ye Qing said: "It's yellowfin tuna."
"Everyone, eat to your heart's content."
"That's enough for tonight."
Ye Qing’s showdown left everyone stunned.
One person's hand shook and the chopsticks fell on the table.
Uncle Li opened his mouth, trembling with excitement: "Yellow... yellowfin tuna?"
"Where...where did it come from?"
"You fished again later and caught something?"
Ye Qing nodded.
Kangzi sat down and told them the story in a vivid way. When he got to the exciting part, he even started dancing with joy.
After hearing this, Uncle Li and Uncle Jiang had complicated expressions on their faces and said, "To my surprise, we were able to catch thirteen yellowfin tuna."
"Qingzai's luck is incredible."
Zhang Jun smiled and said, "Lucky is one thing, but Qingzai also listened to your advice. If you hadn't persuaded him to fish, he wouldn't have been able to catch the redfin tuna, and he might not have been able to catch the yellowfin tuna either."
After hearing what he said, Uncle Li and Uncle Jiang became even more emo.
Not to mention them, everyone else is similar.
It's so enviable.
As for Ye Qing, he said nothing, as if Kangzi was talking about someone else.
He was busy eating and drinking.
With the energy of the dragon balls protecting his body, he was not tired, but he was hungry, and extremely hungry. He felt that he could eat a cow at this moment.
Everyone stopped being polite.
"This midnight snack is too luxurious."
"I spent tens of thousands of yuan on a midnight snack. When I get home, I can brag about it for a year."
"besides?"
"I can't eat anymore. I'm too full."
Everyone left rubbing their stomachs and burping.
Some people returned to the fishing boats, but were so excited that they couldn't sleep. They tried to bait the sea with croaker, but caught nothing.
Early the next morning.
The wind and waves are very strong.
The waves can directly hit the deck. In such weather, it is impossible to continue working at sea.
Ye Qing didn't care.
He had originally planned to return in the morning.
The main reason is that the ship’s cold storage is not strong enough and we are worried that something might go wrong. If something goes wrong, it will be terrible.
Have breakfast.
Breakfast was simple, just some cooked rice.
Then sprinkle some seaweed on it and cover it with tuna meat, and a simple tuna rice bowl is ready.
The four people on the boat finished their meal, packed up and prepared to return.
A few hours later.
They came to the place where the crab pots were placed.
After a quick look around, I realized that none of the crab pots were lost.
Kangzi's eyebrows lit up: "There aren't many fishing boats on the sea right now."
"Many fishermen on the island are working elsewhere and can't get back in time, and most are still waiting and watching."
"People who work away from home during the Lunar New Year will come back. I guess our sea area will be bustling next year."
Ye Qing nodded.
They still have to go overseas more often and make a lot of money during the next six months.
"Put the cage away."
Kangzi shouted, he had high expectations for the crab cage.
Zhang Jun stopped the boat and came out to help, asking, "Kangzi, do you think the cage can be blown open?"
Kangzi nodded: "I don't think it's a big problem."
Ye Qing smiled and said meaningfully, "It's too small."
"You can be bolder."
"The harvest this time is definitely beyond your imagination."
Kangzi and Zhang Jun looked at each other: "Beyond imagination?"
"At most, the cage will burst."
"We know you're lucky, so we're prepared."
The two of them were somewhat disapproving.
Kangzi and Zhang Jun pulled the buoy aboard and then wound the main line around the winch.
All the crab cages are connected in series by the main line. You only need to pull the main line to pull all the crab cages out of the sea one by one.
Crunch...
With the operation of the winch, the first crab cage floated to the surface of the sea.
I saw that the crab cages were filled with swimming crabs, all of which were very big. It was not because all the swimming crabs here were so big, but because the mouth of the crab cages could not hold the small swimming crabs.
"It's a swimming crab."
"Not bad, it's a cage explosion."
"It looks like each one weighs over a pound and can fetch a good price."
Swimming crabs are the most common seafood, especially recently when they have been put on the market in large quantities. Even if they are labeled as seafood from Longwei Island, the price is just that.
After all, rich people don't like this.
Even if the price is average, the quantity is huge.
The second crab cage also exploded.
Li Shi tried to count the piles of fish, but he couldn't figure it out. There were at least forty fish in one basket. One fish could be sold for about fifty yuan, so the whole basket was worth about two thousand yuan.
After a while, the third crab pot came on board...
Exploding cage.
Still bursting cage.
The cage keeps bursting.
Zhang Jun, Kangzi and Li Shi are too busy to handle it, absolutely too busy.
Only after Ye Qing took action did the pressure ease a little.
As Kangzi worked, he called out, "Qingzi, your luck is incredible."
"You're going to tire us out."
"I strongly suggest that you wait two days before going out to sea. You have to rest for two days at least."
Ye Qing laughed heartily: "Luck is something that no one can truly explain. I don't want to think about it..."
He glanced at the next crab pot that was about to be loaded onto the boat.
There's a lot of stuff inside!
