Rebirth of a fishing village: starting from Hua Axiang in Jiehu Village

"In such a short time, we can't catch anything, right?"

Ding Xiaoxiang shook her head. These cages were put down yesterday, and it's only been a dozen or twenty hours now. Generally speaking, such cages have to be put down for two days and two nights to catch more things.

"We don't rely on these cages to catch fish for food, we just want to see if we can really catch them."

"If we can catch them, we can catch them. If we can't catch them, forget it and put them in the sea!"

"Besides, if there are really a lot of them under the fish raft, this little time is enough, and there must be big white eels crawling in."

Yang Qin really wanted to pull up two or three cages to see if there was anything caught in them.

"Okay, okay!"

"If you really want to know, then take two or three and take a look."

Ding Xiaoxiang thought about it and Yang Qin's words actually made sense.

It usually takes two or three days to catch more fish, but we just want to know if there are any in the sea. We don't really make money from this. It's okay to catch them in a shorter time. What's more important is that what Yang Qin said is true. If there are more big white eels under the sea, some of them will run into the cages now.

"Okay!"

"Then call someone to pull the cages!"

Ding Xiaoxiang nodded and looked at Ding Ailian. The cages are very large, one meter long, half a meter wide, and half a meter high. We definitely can't pull them up.

Ding Ailian shouted loudly and one of the people working on the fish raft came over.

Yang Qin's eyes widened.

The cages were pulled up one after another.

The sea water was very clear, the sun had risen, and the visibility was very high. When it was about ten meters away, it was already vaguely visible.

"Ding Xiaoxiang."

"Is there something in the cage? Why do I seem to see it?"

Yang Qin was a little anxious, and pointed at the cage that was being pulled up.

"What nonsense are you talking about?"

"There is still about seven or eight meters of water depth. Even if you can see the cage, can you still see what is in the cage?"

Ding Xiaoxiang shook her head while speaking.

This is impossible. One is that the water is seven or eight meters deep, and it is not very clear to begin with. It is no problem to see the cage. It is completely impossible to see clearly whether there are fish in the cage, especially if you can see any fish.

You should know that this is not just a problem of water depth. Another very important thing is that these cages are all made of very dense fishing nets. Not to mention the water depth of seven or eight meters, even if they are pulled up on the deck and placed in front of you, it is unlikely to see clearly what is inside.

Yang Qin said this, just a little nervous, thinking that she could see clearly what was inside, but it was really impossible.

"Hehe!"

"Sister Yangqin!"

"Why are you so anxious? It will be pulled to the surface soon. We will know if there is anything there when we take a look."

Ding Ailian didn't know what was going on, but she was also very curious whether there was really something in the cage after it was left overnight.

Zhong Cuihua and Huang Jintao were originally sitting in Pingtan. When they saw the cage being pulled, they came over.

Ding Xiaoxiang saw it and wanted to shout not to come over, but the fish farm was built very well, and the passages were very wide. There was no wind on the beach at this time, and it was very stable, so she simply stopped trying to stop them.

"There is something in this cage!"

Huang Jintao came over and took a look. She didn't know what it was, but there was definitely something there.

"Second grandma."

"Is there really a fish in it?"

"How did you know?"

Yangqin was a little curious. The cage was in the water at this time. Although it was only five or six meters, Xiaoxiang was right just now. It was really hard to see if there was anything in it.

"It's definitely not clear what it is, but there must be something."

"Why do you need to look inside the cage? You can tell what's going on by looking at the weight of the cage!"

Huang Jintao smiled.

The cage was not pulled up, so we definitely don't know what kind of fish is inside, but looking at the weight of the cage, we know that there must be fish or crabs inside.

It's just that we really don't know what it is.

Yang Qin didn't pay attention to this matter, but the environment said so, and took a closer look. It was really like this. Now the cage is obviously pulled up. It is very heavy, and it is definitely not the weight of the cage itself.

"Ding Xiaoxiang."

"Isn't it really a big white eel in here?"

Yang Qin was just a little curious, but now there is something in the cage, and it looks like it's not clear, so she immediately became nervous.

"If it's really a big white eel, isn't it a good thing? Don't we want to put a cage to catch this thing?"

Ding Xiaoxiang thought it was a little funny.

Yang Qin was really worried about gains and losses. She originally wanted to catch the big white eel, but now that she knew there was something in the cage, she became even more nervous.

"Yang Qin."

"There's something in here. It's a good thing no matter what it is. Even if it's Shi Jiugong or some other fish, can't we have a meal?"

Ma Baozhu was in another place in the fish farm. When she saw the cage and heard Yang Qin shouting loudly about what was in the cage, she came over.

The cage in the sea must be something caught. No matter what it is, it's all for free.

Valuable big white eels or groupers, that's definitely a good thing, but if there's nothing, even if it's Shi Jiugong or some other small fish, there's no problem. Just pour it into the net cage of the fish farm to feed other big fish, or you can make soup for us to drink. It's all for free.

"Sister Baozhu."

"You're right. No matter what kind of fish it is, we're all for free!"

Yang Qin thought about it and it was really like this. No matter what kind of fish it was, it was all for free for us. Valuable fish would definitely be better. Even if it was worthless fish, it could be used to feed the fish and the fish inside.

"Don't underestimate the stone nine-gourmet."

"The sea here is so deep, we caught it with a cage, so it must be from the bottom of the sea. No matter what, it must be at least half a catty in size."

Ding Xiaoxiang pointed to the net cage that was about two meters away from the water.

The sea here is more than 20 meters deep. At such a deep seabed, even the stone nine-gourmet is very large.

Not to mention half a catty of stone nine-gourmet, even three or two stone nine-gourmets are not cheap, and they are really delicious.

Catching such a big right nine-gourmet is very cost-effective even if you don't sell it, and keep it for yourself.

Yang Qin watched the cage being pulled to the surface of the water, and suddenly heard something moving inside, but it stopped moving immediately.

"What's going on? Shouldn't there be fish in it? Why did it move for a while and then stop moving again?"

"Is there a fish in this cage or not?"

Yang Qin was very nervous.

I clearly heard a sound in the cage, but in a blink of an eye, there was no sound. I don’t know what happened, or if I heard it wrong.

“There must be a fish, but I just don’t know what it is!”

Ding Xiaoxiang was 100% sure that Yang Qin had not heard it wrong. There must be a fish in the cage, and it should be quite big, but I don’t know what it is.

The cage was pulled up and placed on the wooden board of the fish rack.

Yang Qin was very anxious and stretched out her hand to open the cage.

“What are you doing?”

“I don’t know what kind of fish is in it, so you just do it like this!”

Zhong Cuihua stood by and stopped Yang Qin immediately when she saw this. If it was just an ordinary fish, it would definitely be fine, but this time the cage was mainly to catch the big white eel in the sea.

This thing is not an ordinary fish, its teeth are very sharp, and the other thing is that it is slippery and can’t be grasped steadily.

Yang Qin stretched out her hand and opened the cage. If there was really a big white eel inside, and it was relatively large, it would be a big deal if she put her hand in.

Yang Qin retracted her hand. She was really a little anxious just now. If there was really a big white eel inside, it would be really big.

"What are you doing? Why are you all gathered here?"

Zhao Shi walked out of the room and saw Ding Xiaoxiang and Yang Qin gathered together.

"Second Grandpa!"

"It's pulling the cage! There are fish in it. I don't know what it is. I just wanted to take a look!"

Ding Xiaoxiang saw Zhao Shi and shouted loudly.

"Have you pulled the cage? Didn't you say you would wait two days before pulling it?"

Shi Guangming walked out of the room behind Zhao Shi. When he heard Ding Xiaoxiang's words, he immediately walked over quickly.

"It's the thing! But it struggled and made a sound just now, and now it's silent again. I don't know what it is."

Yang Qin pointed to the cage at her feet.

Zhao Shi has been fishing for many years and has a lot of experience. He stood up the cage and immediately heard the sound coming from inside.

"Yes!"

"There is something inside! And it is definitely not a fish!"

"It can't really be a white eel, right? Or another eel?"

Shi Guangming is very experienced after all. He felt that the thing in the cage looked like a white eel, or at least an eel.

"Yes!"

"It's really possible! Otherwise, the sound wouldn't be like this at this time!"

Zhao Shi nodded.

"Second Grandpa!"

"Open the lid! Let's see what's inside!"

Yang Qin was even more anxious.

Zhao Shi nodded and opened the lid of the cage.

At this time, the cage was standing up, and fish, shrimps, crabs, etc. would be under the cage. Moreover, this cage was relatively high. If the lid was opened directly, no matter what fish it was, it would be impossible for it to escape.

"Oh!"

"It's really an eel, and it's a big white eel! It's even bigger than the one we caught before. I estimate it must be seven or eight pounds!"

Zhao Shi looked down at the open cage and saw a big white eel coiled at the bottom of the cage.

"Really? Really?"

"Is it bigger?"

Yang Qin asked repeatedly.

"Could this be fake? It must be!"

"Sister Baozhu."

"Is there a big bowl bag on the fish fillet? Bring one over that can fit the cage!"

Ding Xiaoxiang was very excited. She didn't expect to really catch it. Moreover, Zhao Shi just said that this is a big white eel weighing seven or eight kilograms.

Ma Baozhu nodded, turned around and left, and brought a big net bag over.

Zhao Shi covered the mouth of the cage with the net bag, lifted the cage upside down, and a big fish fell out, and some were small fish.

"Oh!"

"It's really a big white eel! This one is really bigger than the one we ate yesterday!"

Yang Qin exclaimed.

In the net bag was a huge white eel.

It was as thick as a human calf, which really looked a bit amazing.

"Ha!"

"Old man Shi."

"We guessed right. There are really big eels here. And judging by their size, there are even bigger ones in the sea!"

Zhao Shi was very excited. However, he was not only excited because he caught one by putting out the cage. The most important thing was that he caught one yesterday and caught another one by putting out the cage today. This proves that there are indeed many big white eels on the seabed, especially around the pier.

Usually, these big white eels swim around in various places, or they are scattered, and no one can be sure where they are.

Ding Xiaoxiang and Zhao Dahai built a fish farm here, which is equivalent to a small island appearing near the pier, attracting many kinds of fish in the surrounding sea, especially on the seabed, to gather here.

This is what a big white eel looks like, and it is very likely that this is just one of them. There may be other big fish.

Now there are ten cages in the fish farm. One cage has been caught, and there must be more.

"Yes!"

"This big white eel is so big, there may not be bigger ones, but there are definitely ones of similar size, and there are definitely a lot of them."

"No wonder so many speedboats are fishing here! Maybe they are all sinking hooks. If you want to catch this big white eel, you can make money if you can catch one a day or even one every three or five days."

Shi Guangmin couldn't help but look at the sea around him. At this time, there are more and more speedboats and small fishing boats.

I have been driving Shanghai's sea fishing boats and taking people out to sea for many years. I am really not familiar with the fishing pier. I don't know what kind of fish people here can catch.

Now looking at the pier, I can catch more fish and make more money than I imagined.

Otherwise, these small speedboats and small fishing boats could not stay in a place like this all day long. A person of about the same age as me in the village made it very clear that you should not underestimate these small speedboats and small fishing boats. Some people may earn not much less than those speedboats that go fishing in the open sea in a month.
