Chapter 179 Chapter 179 Flood
He Junxia carried the boat in one hand and the fish in the other, and attracted countless people's attention as he walked on the road.
The black bone shark that he knocked unconscious was extremely tenacious. It woke up again in the middle of the attack and bit the brick in its mouth into pieces.
He Junxia thought for a moment, pulled out the dagger hanging at his waist, and killed the fish quickly.
If most of the new fish species had not died for more than two hours, and the texture and efficacy of their meat had not been greatly reduced, He Junxia would not have endured until now.
Now we are only 15 minutes away from returning home. Kill it to prevent it from suddenly attacking and hurting people.
He Junxia pushed open the door carrying a 45-pound black bone shark. Su Guizhi and Wei Lingyu, who were sitting on the sofa knitting sweaters, subconsciously raised their heads and then froze in place.
Su Guizhi's hand was still repeating the previous action. The long steel needle pierced her fingertip, and the slight stinging sensation brought her back to her senses.
She was shocked and said, "Where did you get such a big fish?"
He Junxia put the folding boat and the fish on the floor, bent down to take off her dusty sneakers, and took out the slippers from the shoe rack in the entrance.
He replied, "I fished."
Su Guizhi blinked hard, then blinked again, pushed the table in front of her away and ran forward. After seeing the whole picture of the fish, she gasped.
"Is this a black bone shark?!"
There are not many black bone sharks in the waters near Kangluo City, but Linshui County can be regarded as the base camp of black bone sharks.
Therefore, Su Guizhi, who had no interest in new fish species, could recognize it at a glance.
She stepped forward and nervously grabbed her youngest son's clothes: "Are you not hurt?" The ferocity of the black bone shark had left a deep impression on him.
He Junxia: "I'm not injured."
He turned back and forth as Su Guizhi ordered, letting her see enough.
After checking the whole place up and down and confirming that her youngest son was not injured, Su Guizhi finally felt relieved, but she still felt a little scared.
She scolded him, "You are so capable, you dare to catch this kind of fish by yourself, are you going to die?"
The more Su Guizhi thought about it, the angrier she became.
"Didn't you promise me to only fish near the coast? Don't think I don't know that this kind of fish doesn't like to move around near the coast."
He Junxia touched his nose.
He really only moves around near the coast, so how can a place a few hundred meters from the coast not be considered nearby?
But he never dared to say this out loud.
He Junxia quickly changed the subject: "Mom, please process the fish quickly. If it's been more than two hours, the effect will be gone."
Su Guizhi was about to curse a few more times, but upon hearing this, she hurriedly picked up the fish and rushed to the kitchen.
Now that things have come to this, the fish her son caught with so much effort and risk could not be wasted.
If you want to scold someone, wait until the fish is processed.
But after Su Guizhi moved the one-meter-long black bone shark to the kitchen, she suddenly remembered something: she seemed not to know how to kill it.
Ordinary fish could be gutted, steamed, or braised, but a black-bone shark cost thousands of yuan per pound, and every part of it was a treasure. If she accidentally damaged it, it would be too late to regret it.
Wait, several thousand yuan per pound.
Su Guizhi rushed out of the kitchen holding a kitchen knife and said, "Xiaoxing, why don't you sell the fish? It's so expensive."
Thousands of yuan per pound!
There are plenty of cheap and delicious fish in the vegetable market. They are not rich, so why should they eat such expensive fish? It won’t make them feel happy after eating it.
He Junxia smiled and said, "I want to try it. I heard that black bone shark tastes a lot like beef. Besides, we've been floating on the sea for so long, we need to replenish our energy."
"If you sell the fish, you can buy hundreds or thousands of kilograms of beef and make you eat until you vomit." Su Guizhi felt distressed and helpless: "If you want to eat it, don't sell it all, keep some for yourself."
"This big one is more expensive than dragon meat."
Su Guizhi was heartbroken.
He Juanxia smiled and snatched the knife from her hand: "Okay, okay, don't feel bad, go back and sit down, I'll take care of it."
He Junxia pushed Su Guizhi out of the kitchen and personally cut open the black bone shark.
After the black bone shark dies, its skin is no longer as tough as when it was alive, and even a blunt kitchen knife can easily break its defense.
However, He Junxia still prefers to use a dagger, which is more convenient when skinning.
It took him half an hour to process the black shark weighing 45 kilograms. There were 35 kilograms of fish meat in total. He sliced 5 kilograms into fillets and put them in the hot pot, and made 10 kilograms of fish balls. The rest was put in the refrigerator to be frozen and eaten slowly.
Although the efficacy of frozen fish will be reduced, it is much better than freezing it after it has died for several hours.
The fish skin is steamed, dried and hammered into powder to become an excellent hemostatic drug for both internal and external use. It works in three seconds no matter how big the wound is.
According to the method provided by the government, the bone on the top of the head needs to be steamed for five hours and then boiled in boiling water for five hours before it can be softened for consumption. The daily consumption per person should not exceed 10g.
He Junxia decided to let Su Guizhi deal with it tomorrow. After all, the medicinal effect of the bones would not diminish with the passage of time.
In addition, he did not throw away the various internal organs of the black bone shark, but sold them to a team specializing in fishing for underwater giants, and he could sell them for 500 yuan per kilogram.
He Junxia put the remaining fish meat and internal organs into the refrigerator and started making fish balls.
The three people who came back after a busy day were stunned.
Especially Miao Yueze, who had witnessed a black bone shark bite off a person's arm with his own eyes, and never thought that his brother could actually bring back a black bone shark.
What I didn’t expect was that he didn’t sell the fish, but chose to take it back and eat it.
Oh My God!
Are you that greedy?!
Miao Yueze chased after He Junxia and kept saying, "Are you stupid? Even if it dies, you can still get hundreds of thousands of dollars if you sell the whole thing."
"Will you be able to marry a wife and have children for free in the future? Why do you have to be greedy for this?"
Annoyed, He Junxia directly picked up a cooked fish ball and stuffed it into his mouth.
“Mmmmm…”
Miao Yueze was a little panicked when a fish meatball was suddenly stuffed into his mouth. He chewed it subconsciously. Well, it was really delicious.
The taste is similar to beef balls but it is more tender and chewy than beef balls. It is juicy and has a light milky aroma. It is also a bit crispy when chewed.
It tastes much better than ordinary fish.
But no matter how delicious it is, there are substitutes, so why bother with just a moment’s pleasure?
Miao Yueze swallowed the fish ball, and when he opened his mouth to speak, another fish ball was stuffed into his mouth.
He Junxia placed the ice basin filled with fish fillets in his hand and said, "Take it out."
Miao Yueze: ...
Miao Yueze swallowed the fish ball: "Okay."
He now understood that no one could stop his younger brother from doing what he wanted to do.
A group of people sat around the dining table, enjoying the fish and rice. Even Wei Lingyu, who was tired of fish, ate a lot of tomato-flavored fish fillets and meatballs.
The meat of the black bone shark is a warm tonic food that works quickly but does not harm the body. As long as it is not consumed in excess, eating more is very good for the body.
After the meal, my stomach and whole body felt warm.
Su Guizhi has rheumatoid arthritis, and she feels dull pain on cloudy and rainy days. Now it feels so warm, like soaking in a hot spring.
She was surprised and said, "No wonder it's so expensive outside, it turns out it really works."
As people age, various body functions are prone to problems, and Zhuang Daiyu and Wei Mingjie have felt this very clearly.
"Hey, you guys sit still, don't move, I'll clean up."
Zhuang Daiyu snatched the bowl from He Junxia's hand and cleaned the table: "I'll go wash the dishes, Lao Wei, you mop the floor."
Putting aside other things, thanks to Miao Yuexing, they were able to eat such expensive food, so there was no reason for them to work.
Miao Yueze lay on the sofa, savoring the taste of the fish balls. Suddenly he straightened up and said, "Little brother, how about I go fishing with you?"
"no."
He Junxia refused immediately.
Miao Yueze was a little unconvinced: "Why can you do it but I can't?"
Although he is not as strong as his younger brother, his physical fitness has improved significantly after several months of training.
He has six pack abs!
Even if his skills weren't as good as his younger brother's, he could still help him out. It was always safer to go out to sea with two people than alone. If he could catch another blackbone shark, the odds would be 1:9 between him and his brother, and he wouldn't have to worry about money for a while.
Miao Yueze was also anxious.
The world is in such a mess, the prices of various materials are soaring, and my wife is about to give birth again. Giving birth to a child costs money, and raising a child costs even more.
He is a grown man, twenty-seven or twenty-eight years old, with hands and feet. Does he still have to borrow money from his parents and brothers to raise his children?
I don't even have the face to say it out loud!
He Juanxia: "If we go out to sea together, we'll be finished if something happens. Will you abandon your wife and children?"
Miao Yueze: ...
Yes, the profits from fishing at sea are not low, but the risks are also high. If you are not careful, you may end up dead in the sea.
Miao Yueze was speechless, and suddenly felt like a deflated ball, completely deflated.
He Juanxia patted his shoulder: "Brother, don't worry, I'm here, we are a family."
"Brothers united in purpose can cut through metal."
Although the wisher did not say it explicitly, his wish to protect Wei Lingyu's safe delivery showed that he cared very much about his brother and sister-in-law.
Miao Yueze is also very kind to those who make wishes.
As the saying goes, the eldest brother is like a father and the eldest sister-in-law is like a mother. Although Miao Yueze is only six years older than Miao Yuexing, the two brothers rarely fight over things.
In other words, Miao Yueze felt sorry for his younger brother because his father passed away shortly after he was born, and he loved him very much.
When the wisher was bullied by his classmates, Miao Yueze immediately took a leave of absence and took a ten-hour bus ride back from the university campus to support the wisher.
When Miao Yueze was in college, he worked as a part-time tutor. He often gave out red envelopes to those who wished him well and bought him some branded clothes and shoes. He was afraid that the competitive mentality among the boys in junior high and high school would make his younger brother feel inferior...
Each and every one of these incidents reflects the deep bond between brothers. It's impossible to judge simply by money.
As a tasker, since he has accepted this task, he must complete it conscientiously - in addition to fulfilling the wishes of the person who made the wish, he must also take care of the relatives they care about as much as possible.
Miao Yueze snorted: "I am your brother, and I can use your money. You should save more money to get married. It is not easy to get married nowadays."
"By the way, if you really want to do this for a long time, you still need to find a partner."
"People make mistakes, horses stumble. Two people looking out for each other are definitely better than one."
He Junxia smiled and said, "I know."
