Chapter 196: Several kinds of valuable fish came but I was reluctant to eat them

Soon, Liang Ziqiang and Li Liang each pulled up a net on their boat.

Inside the net, there are five or six black fish, with sharp snouts, lower jaws longer than upper jaws, large mouths and small teeth. There is a black stripe on the outside of the upper jaws, and the back and sides of the fish are gray-brown with irregular black spots. There are sharp spines at the rear end of the dorsal ridge of the head.

Deng Zhaocai was amused when he saw this and teased Li Liang:

"You know what, combing your hair like this is actually quite attractive. Look, it has attracted all the black wives!"

Li Liang was in a hurry to catch fish and had no time to beat him.

When Liang Zifeng heard this, he immediately remembered that Liang Ziqiang had caught this kind of fish, called "Black Wife", while fishing with white foam last month, but he only caught one at that time.

He took a closer look and said, "Yes, this ugly fish is called Black Wife. I heard you say it was a good price before!"

So he also took a net, cast it, and pulled up three fish.

After shaking the net open, Liang Zifeng was about to grab the fish from the net. Liang Ziqiang saw it and quickly stopped him:

"Don't use your hands! Either wear gloves or just hold the net and pour it on the boat. The fins of this fish are a bit poisonous. If they prick your hand, it will make you cry!"

This fish is not only ugly, but also poisonous. It can be sold at a good price only because of its delicious meat.

There are venom glands on its fin spines. Of course, the venom is not comparable to that of sea snakes, blue-ringed seals, stingrays, etc. It is not fatal, but the site of the sting will be red, swollen, and painful. Anyway, it is uncomfortable enough for a while.

The official name of "Black Wife" is black carp, also known as heizhai, blackhead and black stone bass.

This fish has many characteristics. In addition to being ugly and delicious, it has strong stamina and likes to dive into the wind and waves. It also particularly likes to stay in rocky reefs.

In addition, this fish, like the six-line fish, has a certain tolerance to low temperatures, which is why it stays in the shallow sea at the end of the winter flood.

Liang Ziqiang remembered that Zheng Liu paid a whopping one dollar and fifty cents for that black bass, which was more than twice as much as the six-line fish that cost 70 cents per pound!

This group of black carp is also interesting. It seems that they have no intention of making a long journey to the deep sea, but instead swim towards the long reefs of Longju Ridge. It seems that they are planning to stay here for a while.

Liang Ziqiang used a fishing net to cast the fish himself, and asked Liang Zifeng to use a hand net to intercept them. The black carp failed to get into the cracks in the reef, but instead got into Liang Zifeng's hand net.

According to preliminary estimates, the two boats each caught about seventy to eighty black carp.

Last time, the three of them caught a black mullet each, and they sat on the seawall grinning like idiots. This time, they caught so many in one go, and they grinned like idiots.

In a gust of wind, a small wave of black carp was almost caught.

Today's catch is not that much, the cabin is still empty, there is no sign of a mountain of fish. But the good thing is that the two types of fish we got are both expensive fish that can be sold at a good price, which is not bad.

While there were no fish on the sea, they started to make lunch.

I cooked the rice first, and when it was my turn to cook the vegetables, I hesitated.

Normally, we would cook one or two fish as lunch on the spot whenever we caught them, while they were still fresh.

I only caught two kinds of fish today, a six-line fish and a black wife. Each one is more expensive than the other. I didn’t catch any cheap fish.

At 70 cents or 1.5 yuan per pound, who wouldn't die of pain after eating this?

Finally, Liang Ziqiang held back. Fortunately, when he set out in the morning, his wife stuffed a cabbage into his bucket.

So he peeled the cabbage leaves, washed them in sea water, and cooked the cabbage to eat.

I stared at the delicious six-line fish and black carp while eating the cabbage in the bland soup. It was a lunch that was hard to describe.

The only consolation was that Chen Xiangbei stuffed him with a few buns. But the stuffing inside the buns was actually hairtail...

Hairtail buns, my wife is really imaginative. He has never eaten like this in his life.

It seems that there were indeed too many hairtails left at home last time. Chen Xiangbei put some hairtails in everything he cooked these past two days...

Fortunately, the taste of the hairtail dumplings is OK. The hairtail meat inside is carefully removed of fish bones and fish bones by Chen Xiangbei, and then mashed into meat paste. It tastes similar to the hairtail dumplings. Many people make hairtail dumplings.

Li Liang's food is not as good as Liang Ziqiang's. The only thing he can cook on the boat is a green white radish. The key is that this guy's cooking skills are worse than Liang Ziqiang's. Deng Zhaocai cursed while eating: "Fuck, this is the food I get when I work for you. There are no vegetables to begin with, and the cooking skills are terrible! Look at Brother Qiang, at least he has his wife making buns and dumplings for him. You should marry Yuan Xiaomei as soon as possible and let her make something for you every day before going out to sea!"

Li Liang simply poured the white radish into his bowl: "Eat it if you want!"

We worked hard and ate lunch, then waited and watched to see if we could catch some more fish that were a little more cold-resistant.

After waiting for about an hour, a wave of fish came.

This time it is a toothfish season. It is not as large as the last toothfish season, but the line is still not short when connected.

Every time Liang Ziqiang cast a net, he could catch forty or fifty kilograms.

After a while, thin, flat toothfish gradually piled up on the boat like stacked pieces of paper.

Deng Zhaocai's indignant voice sounded again: "Isn't it infuriating? This damn fish season didn't come earlier! If it came before lunch, at least you, Huang Shiren, could cook some fish! This fish is not as expensive as six-line fish, so it won't be so expensive that you'd feel like you're cutting out your own flesh and blood!"

Liang Ziqiang could tell that the white radish Li Liang prepared was really unpalatable, which made Deng Zhaocai feel upset for the whole afternoon.

It's not the skill of the chef. When the skin of the white radish turns green, it usually tastes astringent and bitter, and it's impossible to cook it well.

This wave of toothfishing took quite a while to catch. Each boat cast more than ten nets before they saw the fish heading towards the deep sea and officially collected the nets.

When the last net was pulled up, Li Liang directly picked out a large toothfish from the net and threw it into the steamer: "Damn it, if I don't eat fish today, will you keep nagging all the way to the shore? I'll steam the fish for you, but stop spitting on me. You've messed up my hair!"

"Don't you carry a comb with you? In the past few days, every time you pass by Yuan Xiaomei's house, you take out the comb and comb your hair!" Deng Zhaocai said contemptuously.

This time Liang Ziqiang was shocked.

How careless is Li Liang usually? Now he carries a comb with him and combs his hair while walking?

Liang Ziqiang couldn't imagine that scene. Love can change a person beyond recognition!

"Fuck, that's impossible! How dare you slander me! Brother Qiang, don't believe this stupid dog, he is simply slandering me!" Li Liang explained in despair.

"I understand, I understand!" Liang Ziqiang said with a chuckle.

The aroma of steamed fish gradually emerged, and Deng Zhaocai's complaints stopped abruptly.

I took the bowls and chopsticks...

"Why eat fish at this late hour? There shouldn't be any fish today, right?" Liang Zifeng muttered as he looked at the two people arguing on the boat.

"Let's wait and see for an hour or so. If there are no other fish, we'll go back!" Liang Ziqiang estimated the time and it wouldn't be too late to stay a little longer before returning.

He thought that it would be fine to just have some random fish, but unexpectedly, what he waited for was an unexpected flood...
