Chapter 487 Colorful jellyfish
Ye Yaodong was also very happy. Originally, he just fished for fun when he had nothing to do, but he didn't expect to have a windfall.
He took the fish out of the net, and it still shook twice.
Chen Jianian said with some regret: "It's only about a catty, not too big, it's a bit small."
"It's okay, anyway, it's just for fun, it doesn't matter the size." He said indifferently.
Ye Yaosheng echoed with a smile and said, "Just be lucky."
Ye Yaodong nodded, this fish is very auspicious, good-looking, bright red in color, and the scales on its body are shining with water droplets under the sunlight, crystal clear and beautiful.
Generally, if a sea bream is caught by a seaside fisherman, it will be regarded as an auspicious sign.
It only needs to have a good meaning.
It doesn't matter if it's big or not.
In fact, there is another story about the origin of the name of Gaji fish...
According to legend, Tang Taizong Li Shimin came to Dengzhou (now Penglai, Shandong) on his eastward expedition.
One day, he chose an auspicious day to cross the sea to visit the Xianshan Mountain on the Sea (now Changshan Island). After tasting the beautiful-looking and delicious fish on the island, he asked the accompanying civil and military officials, what is the name of this fish?
The officials did not dare to talk nonsense, so they bowed and replied: "The emperor bestows the name."
Taizong was delighted, thinking that it was an auspicious day to cross the sea, and tasting fresh fish would add luster to the auspicious day, so he named it "Jiaji fish".
Black gaji fish are called black bream, also known as sea crucian carp, red gaji fish are called red bream, and those with yellow fins are called yellow bream and yellow-fin bream.
As long as the fish in the sea are slightly different, they all have different names.
There was nothing at hand to hold the fish, so Ye Yaodong had no choice but to go to the small cabin to find a bucket. By the way, he took out some ice cubes from the bucket containing the jellyfish brains outside to keep it fresh, otherwise the high temperature would be bad for a few hours. .
After settling in properly, he continued to play. There was also a handmade net next to it. The big cousin also used it to imitate him and put it in the water to fish for fun. They picked it up when they felt the resistance increased, and they could bring some small fish and shrimps from time to time. .
It is difficult to have larger fish. After all, few fish swim on the surface, and they are all several meters underwater. Only occasionally a few fish swim to the surface to breathe.
As time goes by, the sun rises higher and hotter, and the temperature gradually rises, but the sea breeze brought by the boat is still cool.
Along the way, I encountered a lot of fishing boats, big and small, but they sailed fast and disappeared in a short while.
Ye Yaodong looked into the distance, there was a blue horizon in the distance of the sea, and a little further away, there were dots of small islands, stretching at the extreme of the line of sight.
He looked down at his watch. It was already eleven o'clock. If his father's prediction was accurate, he would arrive in another hour.
The journey by boat is boring. Apart from playing hand copying nets, I can only stand there looking at the scenery, blowing the sea breeze, and being in a daze.
Fortunately, the people on the boat are all old rivers and lakes, and there is no seasickness. If there is no extra space on the boat, he can still bring a deck of cards to play cards together.
While everyone was looking around boredly, the big cousin lay on the side of the boat and exclaimed suddenly, "There are jellyfish, the net is so heavy..."
In an instant, Ye Yaodong also felt that his hand-made net was too heavy, and the resistance from his hand was getting stronger when the fishing boat was moving forward, and everyone all lowered their heads to look at the sea.
At the same time, the speed of the fishing boat suddenly slowed down, and everyone looked around again, very surprised.
I saw many colorful jellyfish swarms floating on the surrounding sea, and it was so beautiful at a glance.
Before Ye Yaodong could speak, Father Ye had already stopped the boat.
He steers the boat ahead, how can he not know the surrounding sea conditions? Just stopping the ship also needs to slow down and stop.
After the boat was parked and anchored, Father Ye walked over excitedly.
"Dongzi, it's really the jellyfish flood season here, and there are many jellyfish floating on it in the sea ahead, in all colors."
"I caught one online."
Ye Yaodong took advantage of the boat to stop, and quickly fished out the net with both hands.
It was very heavy. He estimated that this one weighed more than 30 kilograms, which was bigger than the one he got from them two days ago.
If the boat hadn't stopped, he wouldn't have been able to pick up the jellyfish.
Father Ye also saw the jellyfish in his net, and said happily: "This one is big, it's expected, one of them is as many as we killed before."
The ones from the big cousin’s place were a bit difficult to fish out. After trying a few times, he couldn’t lift them up. He wiped the sweat from his forehead.
"I can't do this in here, it's too big, I can't pick it up, so I have to put it away first."
Everyone looked over, and saw that he tilted the net a bit, and a huge water-blue jellyfish floated to the surface of the water again.
"Good guy, the one in your network weighs at least fifty or sixty pounds."
"I look at sixty or seventy catties."
Big cousin nodded, "It's almost the same, so it's not easy to pick it up."
Ye Yaodong also glanced at it, and said indifferently: "It's okay, I'll get one up to take a look, there are quite a lot of them on the surface of the sea, not bad for your one."
While speaking, he also fished out the one in his hand, and the water under the net suddenly dripped into the sea.
Everyone said in unison: "It's really big!"
"The one just now was bigger..."
"It's really the flood season for jellyfish, Dongzi, this is the right time..."
Chen Jianian also said happily: "I just said that this is the flood season for jellyfish, there is no mistake."
"Although there are a lot of jellyfish in the sea, it's hard to say how the market will be. We still have to sell the jellyfish that have been cut up on the boat. How long will it take for us to land, dad?" Ye Yaodong looked at Father Ye and asked, in his heart The head is a little fiery, a little anxious.
"This is already the junction of Fujian and Zhejiang. If you want to dock, you can find a small pier in a village to dock at any time, but it is estimated that you will have to drive for a while to reach Yangping County. I am not sure how long it will take. We will continue to drive forward later. have a look."
Chen Jianian mentioned that he would go to Yangping County, which is a border county in Zhejiang Province near Fujian Province, and it was also the purpose of their trip.
"Don't worry, as long as your divided jellyfish are processed without any problems, someone will definitely want it. I have already asked you in advance. As long as you land in Yangping County, I can contact the factory to pull the goods over." Chen Jianian Guaranteed, for sure.
Ye Yaodong nodded.
"There is a fishing season here, so there should be fishing boats nearby, but the sea is so empty, there are only floating jellyfish." Ye Yaosheng said doubtfully.
"Is it possible that at this point in time, the ships have already sailed back to unload one after another? After all, they have to be killed alive." The big cousin pondered.
The second cousin also echoed, "It's very possible, after all, it's already noon, so I just pull a boat back and come out after lunch."
Ye Yaodong also tends to think that the boat has already pulled back, or it may be a little far away, and the sea area is wide, so the boat cannot be seen.
Ye Yaosheng asked hesitantly again: "Third Uncle, Dongzi, what should we do now? There are so many things on this boat, there is no place for us to put them up right now."
Others also turned their heads to look at the stacked baskets on the boat, and felt a little worried for a moment. Indeed, there was no room to put them on the boat after they were fished up. Originally, there was only a path for walking.
It would be a pity if I couldn’t catch them. There are so many, and I happened to see them passing by.
Father Ye thought for a while and said, "Let's put the fishing net down the slide, and we'll drag it while we're sailing, so we won't be able to lift the net. When we reach the place, we can drag it directly to the shore. The water level around the coast is also shallow, and it's not easy to sink after stopping the boat." It's okay, when the time comes, people will pull it up."
Ye Yaodong also thought about it just now. Although the boat cannot stop during the trawling process, if it stops, it will sink, but the water level on the shore is shallow, so it doesn't matter if it sinks, anyway, they still have strong labor.
Moreover, the load-bearing capacity of the net lifting machine is one ton. If it exceeds this weight, the net lifting machine will be overloaded.
Looking at the jellyfish floating past on the sea from time to time, there are very few small ones, and basically they are too big. The small ones weigh more than a dozen catties, and the big ones weigh sixty or seventy catties. One, the 900-jin net lifting machine cannot pull it up, because the weight of the fishing net itself is not light, and there are a lot of lead pendants tied to it.
If there are many nets, they must be slowly dragged to the shore by labor.
Others also felt feasible after hearing what Father Ye said.
"Then let's put the net down."
Ye Yaodong nodded, "I'll go to the cabin and drag the fishing net out."
Several people became busy in an instant, helping to arrange the fishing nets.
I have been out at sea for several hours, just standing there watching, and now I finally have a place to use it. The three men who were invited are very active.
Father Ye also went ahead to pull the anchor, ready to sail.
When the fishing boat is moving forward at a slow speed, they release the net gear from the tail slide, connect the net plate to the drag net and make it separate from the two net racks, and gradually release the two drag nets.
After Yizuna released the predetermined length, Father Ye proceeded in the direction pointed by the compass, and their travel direction remained the same, but the speed of the boat slowed down because of fishing.
With these jellyfish floating on the sea surface, Ye Yaodong has a little more expectation for this trip.
Father Ye is the same.
At this time, he couldn't help but think of the eldest and second child. It would be great if they came with him this time. With him, he won't be afraid of getting lost.
I didn't expect that the usually honest second child would be so decisive, but the boss is more secure, so it's a pity that he didn't agree.
But you can’t blame the boss, it’s right to be safe about unknown things.
Father Ye made up his mind to sell the jellyfish on the boat after landing. If he could sell them for a good price, he would ask Dongzi to call back immediately.
The fishing boat moved forward at a specific speed, watching the villages disappear behind him, Father Ye continued to drive forward at a leisurely pace.
Along the way, you can see jellyfish of various colors floating on the sea intermittently, and you also encounter many fishing boats at work, all of which are fishing for jellyfish.
The jellyfish in the fishing nets are all floating on the sea surface, and passing ships can see them clearly.
