The wolves gradually disappeared into the depths of the forest. Chu Jingqiu entered the space with the sonic repeller.
Jiang Jiang and Le Le happily ran out of the space and put the remaining goats into the space.
Mr. He circled around the sonic repellent several times and asked curiously, "Xiao Qiu, what on earth is this sonic repellent? Why is it so powerful?"
Chu Jingqiu explained with a smile, "Grandpa, this sonic repeller is a device that uses sound waves to drive away wolves. The sound waves it emits can stimulate the wolves' ears, causing them to feel pain and panic, thus achieving the effect of driving them away."
"Oh, I see." Mr. He nodded and said thoughtfully, "I never thought that technology would be so advanced in the future that such magical things could be invented."
Everyone walked out of the space again and continued walking along the stream. After about thirty minutes, a small lake appeared in front of them. The water was crystal clear.
There are many schools of fish swimming around in the lake. Maybe because this place is located deep in the mountains, no one catches them, so the fish in the lake are all very big and look very plump.
Chu Jingqiu was surprised to find that there was a whitefish in the water. She shouted, "Grandpa, look, that slender, silvery-white fish is a wave-beating fish.
This fish is incredibly delicious, with soft spines and small scales. Its soup is similar to that of crucian carp, both being milky white. It can be grilled, pan-fried, deep-fried, or cured and dried, retaining its flavor even after a year. It truly is a delicious fish.
It is said that the production of this fish dropped sharply in the 1980s due to environmental pollution, and was even on the verge of extinction. At that time, it could be sold for 500-2000 yuan per kilogram in the market.
It’s unexpected that we can see this kind of fish here, which shows that the water quality is very good.”
Grandpa He looked in the direction of Chu Jingqiu's finger and said, "There are quite a lot of fish in the water. Xiaoqiu, let's go to the space and find a fishing net. Catch more and put them in the river in our space to keep them."
The two of them immediately slipped into the space. Chu Jingqiu found a store selling outdoor sports equipment in the mall, took out a kayak from it, and inflated it.
Grandpa He found two fishing nets and some fishing tools, and the two of them left the space together.
Jiang Jiang and Le Le were playing in the lake. Jiang Jiang had already caught several fish from the lake, and the fish were flapping their wings hard on the shore.
Chu Jingqiu exclaimed in surprise, "Jiang Jiang, you're so capable! You caught fish with your bare hands! No, you caught fish with your mouth! Hurry up and send them to the river in the space. I'll grill them for you later."
Jiang Jiang happily sent all the fish into the space. Chu Jingqiu pushed the kayak into the lake and everyone happily sat on it.
Chu Jingqiu and Mr. He sat at the two ends of the kayak respectively, and they rowed the kayak steadily towards the center of the lake.
When they reached the area where the fish were most concentrated, Mr. He slowly lowered the fishing net into the lake.
After entering the water, the fishing net quickly unfolded, forming a huge arc on the water surface, and then slowly sank into the lake.
The two men stood there and waited patiently for a while. When many fat fish swam into the net in groups, they began to slowly pull the net in.
As the fishing net was gradually pulled up, silvery-white fish jumped in the net, shining with silver light.
Chu Jingqiu shouted excitedly, "Grandpa, we succeeded. We got quite a catch in this net. It looks like there are at least a hundred fish."
The two of them lightly touched the fishing net and dragged it directly into the space. Chu Jingqiu suddenly discovered that there were two one-meter-long fish in the net.
She looked carefully and found that the two big fish had laterally flattened, oval-shaped bodies, slightly raised backs, relatively small heads, and slightly slanted mouths.
She shouted in surprise: "Grandpa, we have made a fortune. There are actually schizothorax here. This kind of fish is very rare, very nutritious, and very expensive.
In later times, the purchase price of this fish was around several thousand or even tens of thousands of RMB per kilogram. In some high-end restaurants and fish specialty stores, this adult schizothorax can even sell for hundreds of thousands of RMB.
If we catch more, we can make a lot of money even if we sell the fish later."
Grandpa He said with a smile on his face, "That's great! There are quite a few valuable fish in this lake. We happened to come across some today, so we can catch more. Let's go and continue fishing."
The two of them rushed out of the space excitedly and continued to cast the net, successfully catching hundreds of fish. Most of the fish in this net were wave fish and splitbelly fish, with a small amount of spiny barbel and carp.
The two men sent the fish into the space, and then paddled the kayak to several places. They cast more than a dozen nets in total and caught thousands of fish of all sizes. They were exhausted and sweating profusely before they reluctantly returned to the shore.
The two men were so busy catching fish that they didn't even look at the time. When they reached the shore, they realized it was already two o'clock in the afternoon.
"Gurgle, gurgle..." Chu Jingqiu heard Grandpa He's stomach growling with hunger. She laughed and said, "Grandpa, you had dinner earlier than us. You must have been hungry for a long time. Let's go back to the space and eat something first!"
Mr. He rubbed his stomach embarrassedly and said, "I didn't feel hungry just now, but now that you mentioned it, I feel really hungry. Let's go back and eat."
Jiang Jiang tilted his head and asked, "Qiuqiu, I'm hungry too. What are we having for lunch?"
Lele thought for a moment and said, "Qiuqiu, I want to eat a hamburger, I want to eat a hamburger... I want to eat fried chicken and French fries..."
Grandpa He shook his head. "Le Le, go eat the hamburger by yourself! Grandpa doesn't like eating children's food. I want to go to the buffet. It's quick and has a wide variety of food."
Finally, Jiang Jiang and Lele went to eat hamburgers, while Chu Jingqiu and his grandfather had a buffet.
After dinner, everyone took a short rest, walked out of the space and continued walking into the mountains.
Jiang Jiang spotted a herd of bison drinking water near a lake in the distance. She happily shouted, "Qiuqiu, look! There's so much beef!"
Everyone looked in the direction Jiang Jiang's little paw pointed, and sure enough, they saw a group of bison. They were covered with thick hair, with strong and powerful limbs, and looked very strong and powerful.
Chu Jingqiu's mouth twitched. "Jiang Jiang, why are you becoming more and more greedy? In your eyes, this bison is just beef."
Mr. He smiled and said, "Bison meat is more delicious and nutritious."
"These bison are so huge!" Lele exclaimed. "They are bigger than any other cattle I have ever seen!"
"Yes, these are naturally grown bison. They have lived in this deep mountain for a long time, so they are stronger in body shape," explained Mr. He.
"Grandpa, let's catch a few to try!" Jiang Jiang suggested.
Mr. He smiled and said, "Bison are quite aggressive. It's better for us to hunt those that are alone. That way it's safer."
