Daddy's Fishing World

Chapter 1 The Declining Fishing Town

Shuirou Town.

One of 32 towns in Jiangdong County, Jiangzhong City, Jiangning Province.

It is about [-] kilometers away from the county seat by car.

The Hening River, the mother of Jiangning people, flows through Shuirou Town.Big and small, long and short tributaries are like capillaries in the human body, crisscrossing the whole town.

Shuiwanzi, reservoirs, lakes, etc. are all over the town.

If you look down on the town from a high altitude, you will see that it is full of water, surrounded by water, and is extremely rich in water resources.

Shuirou Town, a veritable water town.It used to be a well-known fishing town in the province and even in the national fishery field.

For generations, more than half of the families in the town rely on water for draft, or make a living by fishing, or seek development by farming.

However, under the general environment a few years ago, public reservoirs, natural lake sections, etc. were no longer allowed to be leased to the outside world, and aquatic products were no longer allowed to be cultured.

With the withdrawal of a large number of water area management rights, the dismantling of a large number of seine nets, and the tearing of a large number of cages, the fishing town is like an eagle with its wings broken, losing its former prestige and glory.

Shuirou Town, which used to be at the top of the 32 towns in terms of economy, plummeted and became the bottom of the list.

In the past few years, Shuirou Town has been in the throes of economic transformation, struggling to find a new way out.

……

In the morning, the most popular central street in Shuirou Town.

The location of Central Street in the town is rather special. On one side of it are high or low buildings, and on the other side is the rippling Ningjiang River.

Most of the people's service organizations, major banks, network operators, etc., are stationed in this street.

At the southernmost end of Center Street is the Farmers Market.

At the moment, the market is busy.On the Linjiang side of the street outside, there was a long row of temporary stalls, and the meeting was quite lively.

Yu Le's stall is among them. As a fisherman, the product he sells is fish.Next to a large water tank filled with fish, a sign stood saying: Authentic Ningjiang fish!

These fish are all caught by Yu Le from the Ningjiang River Basin. Over the past few years, he will basically maintain a frequency of one to three to five days.

At this moment, Yu Le was sitting on the small bench, feeling a little listless.

The mother-in-law, who always thought he was poor and could see no hope in her life, finally became ruthless, begged repeatedly to keep him regardless of Yu Le, and left with his second daughter, Xiao Lianzi!
The broken family has dealt a heavy blow to Yu Le. In the past month, he has been unwilling to eat, sleep restlessly, and has lost a lot of hair. He has aged several years!
"If you have money, you're a man! If you don't have money, it's hard to be a man!"

Yu Le stared blankly at the sky, lost his mind for a while, and then sighed.

"Boss, are you sure that each of your fish is from Ningjiang?"

At this time, a beautiful sister in her 30s came to the stall, squatted down and looked at all kinds of fish in the large tank, and asked with great interest.

"If I say it doesn't count, it will count when the fish says it." Seeing the guests coming, Yu Leqiang cheered up and received them warmly with a smile on his face.

Yu Le's answer made the beauty even more interested. A pair of bright eyes looked at Yu Le directly, "Oh, it's only when the fish speak? Can fish still talk?"

"Of course fish can't talk, but facts can." Yu Le said with a smile, "Actually, it's not difficult at all to tell whether a fish is wild or farmed. You can basically focus on two aspects. The first One, activity. The activity of wild fish is far stronger than that of farmed fish. The second is fur. No matter what color it is, the fur of wild fish must be bright and bright, otherwise the fur of farmed fish is much darker..."

While talking, Yu Le picked up a carp weighing about two catties from the water tank, and showed it to the beauty, "Look at the fur of this fish, the water is smooth and shiny, and the scales are particularly shiny, especially the tail, which is extraordinarily bright red. The carp that grew up in farms or even ordinary farm ponds are even worse than it in terms of sales!"

"Well, what you said is quite reasonable." The beauty smiled sweetly, and stroked the scattered bangs on her forehead, "However, at most you can only explain that your fish is wild fish, not Ningjiang fish."

"This..." Yu Le scratched his head, "I grew up in Shuirou Town and lived on the banks of the Ningjiang River. I have been fishing professionally for five years... I don't know if this can prove that my fish is Ningjiang fish."

"The fish sellers on this street all say that his fish is Ningjiang fish, and that he is an old local fisherman. However, almost every fish stall has a serious situation of overfilling the fish. It is the fish that is farmed. , mixed in, shoddy... They thought I was a layman and didn't understand anything, so I was so foolish. In fact, I probably know more about fish than you fishers and sellers, and they are all professional."

The beauty stood up and said with a confident smile, "I've already seen your fish. I don't know if it's from Ningjiang. But I'm sure of one thing. There are no fake or shoddy products among them."

The beauty took out a pack of thin cigarettes and gave one to Yu Le. Yu Le waved his hand and declined, took out his own Crane Dance Baisha and lit it.

The beauty’s slender fingers held the thin smoke gracefully, skillfully puffed out the clouds, looked into Yu Le’s eyes, and said slowly, “Business, no matter how big or small, should be based on sincerity. I appreciate honesty. man, so I decided, I want all your fish."

Said the perfect girl waved, and a Ford Raptor pickup drove over.In the large cargo compartment of the Raptor, there is also a large water tank, an oxygen pump, and a tank of oxygen.

Classify fish, weigh them, count them, and settle accounts.

A total of hundreds of catties of fish, counting down to thousands of dollars.

The price of fish in Shuirou Town is not expensive, even authentic Ningjiang fish, such as carp, are only six or seven yuan a catty.No way, who told the whole town that there are not many other things, but fish?
As the saying goes, rare things are expensive, and vice versa.

"My name is Fan Wanxuan. Let's see each other again."

After paying the fish payment via WeChat, the beautiful sister waved at Yu Le, got into the co-pilot, and left gracefully.

Seeing the big pickup truck go away, Yu Le smiled wryly and shook his head. He thought that women thought he was an "honest and reliable gentleman" and would leave a contact information and say, "I'll round up your fish in the future."In that way, he no longer needs to set up a stall to sell fish, how much time can be saved... It turned out to be like this.

……

Yu Le went to a supermarket diagonally opposite to buy a carton of milk, as well as a lot of candy and snacks, weighed a few catties of meat, packed up the stall, and headed home.

Yu Le drove the boat back alone, a small wooden boat more than one meter wide and six to seven meters long, equipped with a low-power diesel engine.

This is Yu Le's "battleship", his travel tool in the whole town, and it is also the food he relies on for his survival - he cannot do without it when he goes fishing.

It is said that a few years ago, Shuirou Town banned all aquaculture in natural waters, but it did not ban traditional fishing operations across the board like countless other places.

The guy who talked things over in the town government was named Guo Keli, and he had been leading the town government for several years.

Lao Guo is a practical person. He knows better than anyone that Shuirou Town is a traditional fishing town. If fishing is banned, there will be too many people in the town. The road of making contributions to development can be taken.

Serving as an official and benefiting one party is definitely not the situation that Lao Guo wants to see.

Of course, letting go is not the same as letting go.

For fishing operations, the town has also formulated very strict rules and regulations, which clearly stipulate that only with a "fishing license" can you go fishing.

Then which fishing and hunting methods and which fishing gear are strictly prohibited are clearly listed.

It also indicates the weight of each fish that needs to be hunted, except for some miscellaneous fish species.

At the same time, the town has also issued quite severe punishment measures, and the fishery administration has a special inspection team. Once any violators are caught, they will be severely punished!
……

"Da da da da..."

The motor roared, and the long and narrow wooden boat cut through the waves and drove quickly on the river.

Then it turned into a tributary, and then turned around in various branch rivers. After more than 20 minutes, we sailed into a quiet water area with thousands of acres.

Finally, we docked next to a wooden hut situated on the corner of this body of water.
