portable fish farm

As soon as Li Yu got home, he looked for something to eat first.Beibei opened the pocket he brought back, looked at the giant clam shells inside, and looked very excited: "Big shell!"

"Do you like Beibei? Choose one if you like it." Li Yu felt funny seeing Beibei's eyes sparkle.

After hearing this, Beibei squatted down and carefully picked up the things inside.He wasn't greedy either, and finally picked a plate-sized shell of an overturned red clam.The main reason is that there are many colors on the shell of this giant clam, and the whole shell is also red.Such a beautiful color is the most eye-catching.

"Daddy, may I have this?" Beibei held the giant clam shell in her arms.

"Yes." Li Yu nodded, and said to Li Zhengxue who was busy making dinner: "Grandpa, don't make dinner, I invited Brother Chang and Grandpa Chang. Brother Chang will bring food over later, fresh Uncle is coming too."

"There are so many leftovers at home!" There are too many dishes made yesterday!

"If you really can't eat it, let's send it to the uncle's house to feed the piglets. I heard that their family has a few little black pigs, the kind of fragrant pigs that don't grow up. During the Chinese New Year, let's buy one and eat it?"

"What a waste. Your uncle knew you would want it early on, so he reserved two for you. Tell me, now you are just like Beibei, and you just want to eat." Li Zhengxue felt a little pity, but also There is no way, their family has a small population, and they can't eat it for a long time.

"Grandpa, come over and pick a giant clam, and when the time comes, pick one and send it to a jewelry store to be ground into beads."

"This shell can also grind beads? Forget it, I don't want it, I don't wear these." Li Zhengxue shook his head.

"Yes, you can see how thick the shell is. This one is good for your health. Grandpa should choose one."

"Grandpa, look at Beibei's, grandpa also chooses, choose the big one!" Beibei directly dragged Li Zhengxue to this side.

Li Zhengxue was pulled by Beibei, so he also picked one, but he liked the white one better, and it looked clean, so he picked a pure white one: "Not to mention, looking at this thing, I really want one."

"By the way, Grandpa, next time Master Qu they will send us a thousand mullets with seeds. We need to find someone to deal with it first. Brother Chang told someone to come over and teach you how to do it fresh. I'm afraid I'll be busy in the afternoon. It's been a long time. Grandpa, please invite a few more people to help, and borrow some pots along the way."

"Why do you keep so much? You are talking about mullet, I just heard them say it. Manager Xu and Boss Zheng are both paying ninety." How much does it cost to keep a thousand catties? When he heard the price, he was still happy for a long time.They generally call mullet fish here.

"Keep it to eat slowly, and you can also give some people away. This is a rare thing. Recently, everyone has worked hard at sea, and I also left [-] catties for each person on the boat." Li Yu told the matter, afraid that his grandfather would Distressed.

"It's time to send something to others. You are not here. Master Qu is not lazy at all with everyone. He goes out to sea more frequently than when you were here. Fishing is suspended, and every time we go far, we are on the high seas. Now The price of fish is also expensive, but it’s not thanks to them taking care of the boat.” Li Zhengxue agrees with this point, since his family has already taken the lion’s share of the boat, and he must not lose money to others.

"Dad, I'll give you a baby too, okay! Beibei really likes that baby." After struggling for a long time, Beibei decided to give one of her own babies to his father.Because his father gave him such a beautiful big shell.

"Beibei still has a treasure for Dad. Dad is so happy. Show Dad what it is?" Li Yu was very happy when Beibei said that.I don't care what the child gives me, as long as he has this heart.And it's a good habit to know gratitude when you get a gift.

"I'll get it." Beibei ran to her room in a dizzy manner.He usually sleeps with Li Zhengxue or Li Yu.His room was decorated very beautifully by Li Yu at the beginning, but now it has been completely occupied by the toys sent by Xian Haobo, and it has become an out-and-out toy room.

Beibei came out holding a stone after a while, and handed the stone to Li Yu with some reluctance.Speaking of which, this stone is also very beautiful, the size of Beibei's palm.The stone is a bit like a cut watermelon, green on the outside and bright red on the inside.And the whole stone is crystal clear and very beautiful, no wonder Beibei likes it very much.

"Where did you get this stone, Beibei?" Although Li Yu didn't know what this stone was, but it was so beautiful, even as a strange stone, it must be worth a lot.

"Give it to Niu Niu!" Bei Bei was very proud. He, Niu Niu and Hua Hua had established a deep relationship.

Li Yu nodded, probably Niu Niu went to the sea to find it again.Now Niu Niu is becoming more and more spirited, and from time to time, he will come up from the bottom of the sea with some beautiful things.For example, shells and snail shells have never been broken. Although they are not special, Beibei are kept as treasures.

"Niu Niu also brought back a piece of red coral, and I kept it. They said that this thing could not be sold or collected." Li Zhengxue said beside him. When Niu Niu gave him the red coral, he still felt that it was tricky and afraid What's wrong.When I got it back, I quickly locked it in the big cabinet at home, not daring to show it to others.

"Beibei, you can't just give away what Niuniu and Huahua give you in the future." Li Yu patted Beibei's head and confessed.

"I won't give it to others, Beibei will give it to my father, Haiyu, grandpa." Beibei said very meanly, Niuniu and Huahua gave him beautiful things, and he would hide them when he received them.

Li Zhengxue went out to find someone, and Li Yu also picked up the giant clam and the watermelon-like stone.He took Beibei to play in the yard outside, and locked everything in the inner room.There are more and more valuable things in the house, and there will be a lot of people when they come, for fear that someone will join in the fun, and there will be too many people with miscellaneous hands.

"Dad, Dad, Beibei misses you so much." Beibei rolled on Li Yu's body.After being hugged by Li Yu for a long time, Beibei immediately began to act like a baby.

"Father also misses Beibei very much." Li Yu hugged him and lifted Beibei up, making Beibei giggle with joy.

After a while, a chef came over from the health care hall with people, carrying several large barrels of sauce.There are also many jars, jars, and vats.A group of people came over in such a mighty way, and put the things in the yard of Li Yu's house.

Li Yu hurriedly poured tea for these people, called Master Qu and asked him to send the fish over.He went to find a long plastic water pipe and connected the tap water at home to the ditch at the door, where the fish would be when he cut it.Cutting up the fish in the garden got water and fish blood all over the place, so it was hard to clean up.Li Zhengxue's speed over there was also fast, calling ten helpers, and all of them brought knives, basins, and buckets by themselves.

When the fish is delivered, everyone cuts the fish by the ditch, especially when taking the roe, take out the film covering the roe, and it is best not to damage it.In this way, it is more convenient to process the fish roe later.The chef was not idle either, and he took several assistants to cut the fish, and then personally demonstrated to others how to deal with the fish roe and fish meat.

There was a lot of movement here, and after a while, people in the village who knew Li Yu's family also came to help.A long row soon sat by the side of the small ditch.Bamboo blankets and racks for drying fish were also set up in the yard of Li Yu's house.They were all tools brought by the neighbors from their own homes. Li Yu realized that he was getting hot when he saw it at the time. He forgot to prepare these things.Even the salt is just a few boxes from the small shop in the village.

Naturally, the strong fishy smell quickly attracted all the cats in the village.One by one squatting not far away, staring at these fish covetously.The cats in the village are all fed, unlike in the city, there are stray cats and dogs everywhere.So seeing these cats, everyone was very friendly and threw some useless internal organs for the cats to eat.

People in the village don't pay much attention to feeding animals, as long as they can feed them enough.They all raise native cats, so they are easy to feed. These cats are not too picky eaters, and they eat almost everything they are given.Occasionally these cats also do some bad things, go to someone's house to drag a fish or something.But generally people don't mind too much.

Beibei likes these small animals the most, but Li Yu is worried that he will be allergic to cats when they are scratched or shed their hair, so they have not kept them at home.Suddenly seeing so many cats coming, Beibei couldn't help but go over.Normally, these cats would have run away when they saw people passing by, but today the fish are too attractive, so the cats continued to squat proudly.

"Father, can I have a fish to feed the cats?" Bei Bei wanted to get close to those cats, but was worried about being scratched, and was very entangled standing not far from the cats.

"There are so many cats, how should Beibei feed them?" Li Yu didn't think it was a big deal for a fish, but just wanted to test Beibei.

"Cut it up, cut a lot, there are cats and cats."

"Our Beibei is really smart! But shall we feed the cat with other food?" Li Yu smiled and picked up Beibei.With so many people here, it's hard to cut up such an expensive fish and feed it to the cats.Otherwise, I don’t know what it will be like tomorrow.So I just carried Beibei to the kitchen to get some leftovers for the cat.

There were so many leftovers yesterday, I just gave these cats some to eat, so as not to waste too much.Put these leftovers directly in the rice, and put them in unused pots.Li Yu took it out and put the food bowl on the ground for the cats to eat.When Li Yu took two steps back, a group of cats surrounded him.

The cats in the village are like a small group, they don't fight, they eat their own food, and they look very cute.Beibei squatted not far away, watching the cat eating, as if he was eating delicious food, his little face was full of satisfaction.Some cats are full, but still staring at the fish over there.There are also cats who come to rub Beibei and express their liking.Rubbed Beibei so much that he didn't dare to move a bit, but he was very happy.

"Oh, this little snack is quite big!" A helping woman suddenly scolded with a smile.

In the fish basin next to him, a kitten who was estimated to be only two or three months old stretched its legs in the basin, trying to drag the fish away.Grinning, showing teeth, writing this all over his face: I am very powerful, I want to eat fish!

"Xiaoyujia's sauce is fragrant, and it will be even more fragrant when you rub it on top of the fish. Don't talk about these greedy cats, even I am greedy." A woman watching the excitement said.In fact, what she meant was nothing more than wanting Li Yu to send her some fish in sauce, or to send her some sauce.There are also people in the village who ask for something like this and take advantage of it. It's human nature.

"I'll try the wheat sauce I made when I go back. I think I can also add some peppercorns, chili noodles, and more ginger and garlic. The taste is not bad!" said Li Yu's uncle and grandma who came to help with a smile.

"Yes, yes, I still like the wheat sauce at home, but I can't eat spicy food. I was too lazy to make it before, and I didn't expect it to be so detailed. Today, the master taught me how to make it carefully. I also moved my mind and went home to make it myself. "Another old man who was helping next to him also answered.

What the old people said to each other is nothing more than telling those who have moved their minds to eat and go home to cook by themselves.The masters have taught me, don't be lazy to take advantage here.Li Yu and Li Zhengxue didn't say anything, they were silently dissecting the fish beside them, and they couldn't answer anything at this moment.

The cats in the village are also tough, just now the woman took the kitten and threw it aside.Of course it wasn't that hard, the kitten rolled around on the ground, but still insisted on crawling towards the fish basin.

"Maomao, let's eat." Beibei saw it, and ran over.It was probably because the cat was still young, so he was not afraid. He carefully picked up the cat and walked towards the basin where the food was placed.While walking, he said to the cat: "Maomao is not allowed to make trouble, Yuyu is made by my father, come and eat."

After carefully watching the cat go to eat in the basin, Beibei laughed again, and then continued to squat aside to watch seriously.

"Beibei." When Xian Haobo came over, he saw Beibei squatting on the ground watching the group of cats fascinated.

"Uncle Xian~" Beibei greeted sweetly.

"Bebe likes these cats?"

"I like it! I like cats the most." Fluffy and soft.

"Uncle, I'll buy you a cat to play with Beibei, okay?" Xian Haobo was afraid that his feet would go numb after squatting for a long time, so he picked him up.

"Okay, okay!" The little head nodded, making people afraid that he would twist his neck.

"There's no need to buy it. If anyone has a kitten, I'll just catch one and bring it back." Li Zhengxue came over and wanted to invite Xian Haobo to sit in the house, and replied after hearing this.

The local cats in the village are easy to feed, and many of them will give away their cubs.But cats always have to be given away for money. It is not good to say that cats come into the house for nothing.Give some money symbolically, and treat it as a purchase, and the disaster will be solved.Even if it's a cat you picked up outside, throw some money outside and treat it as if you bought it.

"Then can I have two, grandpa?" Beibei immediately negotiated the terms.

"I want to ask your father if he agrees? If you have a cat, if Beibei gets injured, everyone will be worried." Li Zhengxue said.

"Beibei will not be hurt, cats are very good."

"Let's raise one first, as long as Bei Bei is not allergic." Li Yu heard it from the side and agreed.I also found out that the older Beibei is, the more she likes to act coquettishly to get what she wants.Although this was not good, Li Yu couldn't bear to correct him for a while.

"Father is the best!" Beibei ran over and kissed Li Yu.

"When you catch the kitten later, I'll take it to the pet hospital in the city to trim its claws." Xian Haobo said to Li Zhengxue, ensuring Beibei's safety is more important.

Chang Mingyao also knew that Li Yu's family was busy, so the food delivery was a little late.At this time, all the fish are processed, and those that should be put in the altar are put in the altar, and those that should be dried are also being dried.Chang Mingyao and his grandfather also came over. After a busy afternoon, everyone also had dinner first.

"Uncle Chang's dishes are the most delicious in the world." Beibei said immediately after swallowing a mouthful of the golden shrimp balls.At the same time, his hand was already pointing at the big crab, and Xian Haobo and Li Zhengxue were naturally helping him.

"After that, Uncle Chang often made delicious food for Beibei. Come on, Beibei should eat more to grow taller. Uncle Chang hasn't seen Beibei for a few months. Beibei has grown so tall." Mingyao gave Beibei another steamed scallop with melted snow.

Xian Haobo stared at him hard, but Chang Mingyao completely ignored him as if he didn't see it.Xian Haobo directly brought Beibei's other bowl and scooped up half a bowl of soup for him.Spoonful after spoonful, I blew it cold and fed it to Beibei: "Beibei, drink soup." Children don't like to eat scallops!

Beibei doesn't care what adults think, as long as there is something delicious in his mouth.A mouthful of meat and a mouthful of soup, Beibei felt so happy!

Chang Mingyao cooks the meals in person, which naturally makes everyone feel full.Even though Xian Haobo disliked Chang Mingyao very much and resolutely prevented Chang Mingyao from contacting Li Yu, he still ate a lot of this meal.Only when you are full can you have the strength to beat a mandarin duck, no, it is to beat a toad!I still want to hit his son, hum~

When everyone went outside to enjoy the shade in the yard, Li Yu took out the giant clams and asked Chang Mingyao and the three of them to pick one too.

"Ah, why are there so many giant clams?" Mr. Chang was also very surprised when he saw these giant clams. If it is said that artificial breeding, it is generally not possible to raise so many kinds of giant clams.

"I was lucky to go to sea today. I wanted to go swimming in the sea, but I didn't expect to meet a super big safflower clam. In the end, I followed the safflower clam to find these shells. They were all dead. I don't know how that giant clam was collected." Li Yu said, and gestured to the size of the red giant clam.

"Dad, I want it!"

"You don't know anything, you just want it!" Li Yu tapped Beibei's forehead with his hand.

"Hmph..."

"That's really lucky, so I'll pick one." Mr. Chang felt that Li Yu seemed to be used to any adventures that happened in the sea.

"Everyone has chosen it. I'll take it to Yunfei and have someone make it. Just tell me what style you want." Xian Haobo said, Su Yunfei's jewelry store is the best for making these. .

"How about bringing a few more giant clam shells to Uncle Su." Of course, the ones brought to Su Yunfei must have been sold to him.The pearls and conch beads that Li Yu and the others picked up in the sea were all sold by Su Yunfei, and the people in his store always gave good prices.Every time I told Li Yu to let him find good things and sell them in the store, but Li Yu never went.

"Okay, I'll drop by." Xian Haobo nodded, he thought that Li Yu was short of money at the fish farm.He plans to sell these giant clams for him when the time comes, and then add some money to it.

"This piece is a watermelon tourmaline. The color and brightness are really good!" Mr. Chang said, picking up the watermelon stone that Beibei gave to Li Yu.

"This is what Niu Niu gave to Bei Bei. Is this a tourmaline?" Li Yu was also curious. Tourmaline is a very precious jewel.

"It's a tourmaline, and it's very rare." Mr. Chang was really convinced. Li Yu was very lucky to be able to hunt for treasure at the bottom of the sea.Now even his few animals can do it. I really can't think of any words to describe it.

"Do you want me to drop by and find someone to polish this piece of watermelon tourmaline and carve it for you?" Xian Haobo seized every opportunity to help Li Yu.

Li Yu shook his head. He actually likes the appearance of watermelon tourmaline. It would be strange if it were carved into other things: "That's fine, this is still a gift from Beibei."

If you want to talk about this watermelon tourmaline, you will think of Cixi when you mention it.It is said that Cixi liked watermelon tourmaline very much back then, and got a piece of very good quality watermelon tourmaline.So I ordered someone to carve a sign for the handle.It is said that Empress Dowager Cixi never left this handle, and even put it under her pillow at night.

The color of watermelon tourmaline is beautiful, and the best is green on the outside and bright red on the inside.Some are yellow-green on the outside and purple on the inside. Although the color is beautiful, it is too different from the color of watermelon, so it is not so popular.Originally, watermelon is a homonym for hi melon, so everyone prefers watermelon tourmaline that is close to the original color of ripe watermelon.
