Jia Huan's rebirth and revenge

The village chief was not sure, he hesitated, so the person who reported the letter would naturally not leave, in fact he didn't want to leave either, he didn't know what this thing was, but everyone still knew the concept that it was a catch in the sea Yes, like a sea pig, it must be edible, but how much meat should there be in such a big one?Based on what the eyes can see at present, roughly estimate, how can there be as much meat as one or two hundred pigs, how much should it be?It's one penny per catty, so how can it be worth 200 taels of silver.Even if you don’t count how much it sells, just eat, so much meat, how much can a family share?It is estimated that they can be divided according to the head, and each person can be divided into a hundred catties, so how much benefit should that be?Even if the family marinates and eats too much, and distributes it to relatives in other villages, or sells it directly as sea fish, that is a lot of income.

Thinking of income, thinking of eating meat, although these fish households say that their families are not small, they still maintain the habit of haggling over every detail, and they don’t want to give up what they get for nothing. What auspiciousness, in their opinion, what is it? The fairy mount, the fetish in the book, can wait to die like this?This is the meat that God sent to them for the teeth-beating sacrifice, nothing else.

Not only those fish households, but also Jia Xun thought so. The money gap in the family has just been calculated, which is a huge sum. Even if this thing can't be sold for money, it can save the family a lot of expenses, right? .

"I reckon that this thing has nothing to do with auspiciousness. Think about it, what kind of Dragon King's mount? It's also a fairy beast or something. How can a fairy beast wait to die without water like this? How is it possible! As for Kunpeng That's even more unreliable. The book says that Kunpeng can soar up to [-] miles and can fly. Everyone can see that this thing can fly? No, so, I think this is probably a big fish in the sea, or Then there are big fish in places we can’t go to on weekdays. I remember that we can still see dolphins from time to time when we go out to sea. That thing is not small. This big fish may be fish that can only be found in places farther than dolphins. , Maybe I encountered some natural enemy, and I went the wrong way to escape, so I ran aground here."

What Jia Xun said was not only well-founded, but it also hit everyone's heart, and many people nodded their heads. Old Zhangtou was the first to agree:

"I think what Er Zi said is reasonable. I looked around, and this thing is no different from ordinary fish, except that it is bigger and has a higher head. Look, the gills, the fins, and the fish. Is this fish tail the same as other big fish in the sea?"

As he said, he also pointed to various places for everyone to see. This way, more people recognized it. It is no wonder that an old man like Lao Zhangtou then abandoned the so-called fairy theory. If the population of this village is to be talked about, their family It is definitely the bottom one. He did a good business with the whole village, and made a lot of money by fumbling, but after all, it is still at the bottom of the village. Now, it is just a family house. Cleaned up and rebuilt a fairly neat quadrangle and came out. The first entrance opened to the outside, doing some butcher work, a shed was built in the backyard, and four pigs were raised. There is a 21-acre slope in the Hailuo Valley. There are ten acres of sloping land. Compared with other people in the village, such a small family business is really small. His son Zhang Dezhu is already [-]. He has agreed with his in-laws, that is, Jia Xun's second uncle's family, to start the business in early summer this year. It's a happy event, but the money is still a bit out of hand. The house was built, the fields were tidied up, furniture was added, pigs were raised, all the odds and ends, and most of the family property that was so easy to get thick was emptied. , now there are only about ten taels of silver left, if you don't think of something quickly, once this happy event is over, it is estimated that this family will return to its original life.

The sloping land has just been opened from the wasteland. In a year or two, if you want to rely on this to make money, then don't even think about it. It would be good if you can grow some food and vegetables to eat. What if the daughter-in-law has a grandson after she comes over?Can he be willing to let his grandson suffer?So, now this old man is only thinking about making money.It's so easy for God to send money, can he let it go?

He has thought about it, with such a big fish, with his skills, he must be the one to take the lead in killing the fish. At that time, according to the rules, his family will definitely be able to eat more meat than others, and there are few people in the family. He couldn't eat so much, so he picked up the Jia family's mule cart and sent them to the villages around the village to sell the rest, even if it was only five cents a catty, or one-fifth of pork. You can also get several taels of silver.He has seen it all. According to his estimation, the fish meat is very thick. According to this size, it can have [-] to [-] jins of meat. For such a point, it is estimated that each person can weigh about [-] jins.

How much can the family eat?Even if the weather is still very cold, even if it can be marinated with salt, saving fifty or sixty catties of meat is enough for half a year, and any more can only be wasted, and the rest will definitely be sold. If you do it yourself, you can save nearly a thousand catties of meat. How much can you sell it for?Five taels of silver is appropriate.

They are all people begging for food in the sea, things that old Zhangtou can figure out, and the others are not fools. At first, they were just a little dazed when they saw such a big fish. After a while, someone said, Fools don't know the pros and cons of this, and someone immediately followed up and said:

"Speaking of this big fish spraying water on top of its head, why do I look familiar? It seems that I have seen it in the sea before, and it's not just a one-time thing. Yes, there are indeed many places in the deep sea in the north, and some of them seem to be bigger than others. This head is still big, and when the tail came out of the water, I looked bigger than the boat, but it didn’t look real underwater in the past, my god, I only realized it when I came out, we were all blind in the past. Now, one fish is worth as many as one."

"Are you stupid, can this fish be caught in the net? If it is caught in the real net, is it you who caught the fish, or the fish dragged you, or dragged everyone into the sea. The boat could capsize. "

"It's done, it's done, I know what you mean when I'm a fool."

The village head came back to his senses now, knowing that he would not offend the public, and he was curious about what the fish tasted like, so he turned to a young man in the village and said:

"In this case, you should go, don't go too far, just go to a few nearby villages, and say that we have that in our village... By the way, what kind of fish is it called?"

"Call it a whale. Don't people always talk about whale swallowing or something? I saw that the fish was about to open its mouth, and the sea water was still swallowed by the whale."

I don't know where I came up with it, but everyone laughed at this statement. People are talking about drinking, and the sea water is the wine for this big fish, isn't it?But don't tell me, the name is really suitable, even the village chief smiled, waved his hand and said:

"Well, it's a whale. Tell people in other villages that a big whale in our village has been stranded. Those who want to buy this sea fish meat come here by themselves. It costs five cents a catty. You can cut it now. Everyone, this fish is so big. Let's share it." Meat probably won't be available, no one has so many people, such a good appetite, eat so much meat, it's better to sell it directly, and if you sell it for money, it's still the old rule, divide it by head."

It's even better now, you don't even have to worry about selling meat yourself, and greeted the people in the next village, can those who don't eat meat all the year round come?It's only five pennies, as long as the kid who is going to shout out this size, everyone will come to watch the fun, and then one person will buy three to five catties. If you go to the nearby villages like this, you can go to a good part of it Already, the rest. . .We'll talk about the rest at that time, there are too many people who can't tell.

There were quite a few people who came. As soon as the news spread that a large fish weighing tens of thousands of catties had been stranded in Hailuo Village, let alone the village next door, in less than four hours, the fisherman was preparing to light up the night battle. Some people have already arrived, and the shopkeeper of Furuiju personally brought three mule carts over. While watching Lao Zhangtou laboriously fetching fish over there, he discussed with the village chief:

"Good guy, this big fish can catch up to half the size of your village, how much meat does it have, village chief, let's talk about it first, what's the matter, I can't lose meat, it's so good It’s a gimmick, I have to cook this meat well and make a few more dishes. If there are more, I will also make it. The next county and other towns to the west, I sell a lot, and you can’t eat it anyway. Probably not, by the way, have you eaten it? How is this meat?"

Seeing that this businessman is very clever, he is not even sure whether the meat is good or not, so he just wanted to wrap it up. Needless to say, he came here for the name of the tens of thousands of catties of fish. Fortunately, he is really lucky .Before the fish was completely dead, Lao Zhangtou cut off a large piece of the fish, whether it was meat, oil, or even the skin. Just enough to make the village chief full of authority.

"This fish, it is really useful for the whole body. The leather is not good enough. It is not as good as those that can be tanned to make leather, but it is also thick and edible. It can also be packed as a rainproof thing. It is just a little troublesome. I guess No one wants it except us fish farmers, but this big fish oil is very good. It can be boiled out to light lamps and used as lamp oil. I see that it can be made into candles, and soap may also be made. Even if we don’t know it, you can do it. Look, after all, this big fish has thick fat, and it can hold a lot of meat. If you can use it, I will give you a penny and a catty. As for the meat, it tastes like beef, but it smells fishy taste."

An old fisherman can do nothing else, he is absolutely familiar with fish, just such a small piece, touch it with his hand, taste it with his mouth, look left and right, and he will be able to explain the effect immediately. It was so resembling that the shopkeeper's eyes lit up when he heard it, and he felt like he was looking at money when he looked at the big fish.
