Chapter 423: Bring a Big Iron Pot and Catch Anchovies (1/2)

Chapter 423 Bring a big iron pot to catch anchovies

Uncle Chen Dongqing, who was soaked all over, went back to "home" to find his sister to change clothes.

Since Li Duoyu's grandmother passed away, uncle Chen Dongqing lived in their house before going to college.

In a sense, Li Duoyu's family is also half of his uncle's home.

Li Duoyu was not in a hurry to go to the dock, but came to the eel factory first.

He took down the big iron pot used to cook miscellaneous fish for eel feed from the stove.

Chen Wenchao, who looked confused, asked: "Brother Yu, aren't we going to go fishing? What are you going to do with this pot?"

"Wait a minute, you will know, we are going to cook fish directly on the boat."

Anchovies are a big concept. As long as they are very small sea fish, they may be called anchovies.

Anchovies, small silver fish, and fish are often called anchovies.

If Li Duoyu had not worked illegally in the island country, it is estimated that there is a high probability that he would catch the wrong fish.

Just come to the eel factory and ask his second brother Li Yaoguo to buy it. Of course, as the venue provider, Li Duoyu still makes some intermediary fees.

"Brother Yu, give me the pot, I'll take it."

After moving the big iron pot and the iron base to the dock, Li Duoyu brought a bamboo from the eel factory.

The only difference is that the silver fish has a black line on its body, while the clove fish does not, and the clove fish in the seedling form is a little smaller, only two to three centimeters on average.

Li Duoyu remembered that the fishermen in that place in his previous life could feed a whole family by catching this clove fish alone, and even set up a whole industrial chain.

When Li Duoyu called out, Hei Nuo was a little scared, but she still went over with her head down.

"Hei Nuo, come here."

But the clove fish that Director Liu wanted was a little gray after being cooked, not completely white.

But because they knew who was the boss in this factory, the two dogs were particularly afraid of him.

In this era, bamboo is very useful, and a large amount of bamboo is needed for the outer wall scaffolding used to build houses.

He was too lazy to think about things that he couldn't figure out, and he saw that the bottom of the iron pot was black and ash, which was very easy to stain his clothes.

Now some farmers in Dandan Island with poor conditions can't afford wooden stakes at all, and can only use relatively cheap bamboo stakes.

Now next to the eel factory, Li Duoyu rented a small site to Brother Ou, and he transported the bamboo from Dazhu Village directly to Dandan Island for consignment.

After the Casuarinas on the island were destroyed by Li Duoyu and the Wang brothers, as well as the 300 acres of abalone fields, there were not many left.

It's not enough to have an iron pot alone. If you want to use a big pot on the boat, you must have a base that can burn firewood.

Li Duoyu thinks that children's affairs should be decided by themselves when they grow up. Baby marriages and the like are just too much novels.

In fact, it is very simple to solve the problem of smelt rotting before landing. Just put a big pot on the boat, and cook it on the spot after catching it, so that it will not rot.

And this fish is seasonal, usually only available in spring and autumn, and now is the season for smelt fishing.

Li Duoyu happened to know such a place, where there are a lot of smelts, the quality is particularly good, and it is also the main fishing point for smelts.

Usually, they are only pulled out for weddings and major festivals. As the village director, it should not be too much to borrow the iron pot.

Now it is also very easy to buy bamboo on the island, and you don’t have to go to Dazhu Village to buy it like Li Duoyu did.

Now, they probably don’t know how valuable smelt is, and Li Duoyu plans to help them develop it first.

The real smelt refers to the fry of anchovies, and the juvenile form is almost the same as that of small silverfish.

It’s just that he always keeps talking about whether to arrange a baby marriage, which makes Li Duoyu and Zhou Xiaoying a little troubled.

As the kelp farming season is approaching, there are a lot of people driving piles during this period, and wood is really expensive in this era.

When the two are just caught, it is really difficult to distinguish them. The best way is to boil them in water.

It just so happens that there seem to be two bases made from diesel barrels at the village committee, which are just right for placing iron pots.

It looks better and the price is higher.

Chen Wenchao frowned, and he couldn't associate fishing with a big iron pot at all. Cooking fish on the boat can be done with a small pot, and it is not easy to spill. If you use a big pot, it is too inconvenient and takes up a lot of space.

Just when Li Duoyu was moving bamboo, two dogs, one black and one white, ran towards Chen Wenchao while playing.

Chen Wenchao hurried forward to take the iron pot.

That is Dinghai Bay not far from Dandan Island. If you drive a boat there, it will take less than half an hour to get there.

In less than a year, Brother Ou's bamboo business has grown bigger and bigger. He is now the richest man in Dazhu Village, and his assets may have reached several million yuan.

They kept rubbing against his feet, wagging their tails happily. Since Li Duoyu didn't feed them much, the two dogs were not very close to him.

Now, the pile drivers in Shangfeng Town and the fish rafts use almost all bamboo from Dazhu Village.

Not to mention that laymen can't tell the difference, even the old fishermen are confused.

Li Duoyu looked at Hei Niu, then laid her down with her legs up in the air, and after checking her with his hands, he felt that she was already mature.

Because of the sudden rise of the aquaculture industry, Brother Ou rarely ran transportation anymore, and started his own bamboo business. With the introduction of Li Duoyu, he met Master Zhang, a pile driver.

Small whitebait is milky white when cooked.

What if Miaomiao becomes disabled when she grows up? Is it really going to be like the novel in the previous life, starting with an annulment?

Otherwise, if they find out, fishermen from other places who go to catch fish from them will probably be kicked out.

If we continue to let black girls wet their pants, we might start inbreeding one day.

Li Duoyu touched its dog's head and smiled maliciously: "Hei Niu, I'm going to send you to a good place."

"Woof~"

The black girl replied symbolically. She didn't understand what her master meant at all.

"Just scream and I'll take it as your promise, Xiaochao. I'll take the black girl with me later and send her to the fishing raft to keep her company with Two Hundred and Five."

Chen Wenchao was stunned for a moment, feeling a little reluctant for some reason. He had raised this dog, but since Brother Yu said it, he could only do it.

He touched the black girl's dog head and said, "Follow me."

After hearing this, the black girl stood up on the spot and followed Chen Wenchao happily.

The other male dog, named Pants Pee, was a bit less courageous. After seeing Li Duoyu, he kept his head down and didn't dare to move at all.

After seeing her sister leaving, she also waggled her tail and wanted to follow her, but before she could follow her, she was kicked by Chen Wenchao.

"Go back, don't follow me."

He peed his pants and drooped his ears, looking aggrieved. He slowly returned to his kennel, and then curled up into a ball.

Looking at the direction her sister was leaving, she made a whining sound.

However, it had no idea that after today's farewell, the happiness disappeared directly, and in the days to come, it would directly become a single dog.

After Li Duoyu moved everything to the dock, everyone asked after seeing him:

"Director Li, I heard Lao Lu say that we need to install that big fan on our island so that our village will have electricity in the future?

Li Duoyu replied: "Yes, after the big fan is installed, our village will have electricity. We won't need diesel to generate electricity in the future, and the electricity bill will be cheaper."

"Would it be as unstable as before? The light bulb shouldn't keep flashing."

"That's definitely not the case. When the time comes, you can install 60-watt ones."

"It's too bright and consumes too much power."

Lao Yang, who runs a restaurant, is most concerned about the refrigerator problem. This year, the diesel generator on the island broke down. His restaurant is close to bankruptcy. Without those delicacies, no one from the island villagers would come to eat in his restaurant.

After a month, he couldn't make a few dollars, and instead owed a lot of money to his relatives. Now many relatives are persuading him to close the shop and engage in fishing and farming together.

Restaurant boss Yang asked: "Director Li, after the big fan is installed, can the freezer be used? Will there be frequent power outages?"

Li Duoyu replied directly: "After the four large fans are installed, you should have no problem getting four freezers."

"real?"

Li Duoyu nodded.

After hearing this, Lao Yang said excitedly: "Then I must sign up to contribute to the development of our Xiasha Village. We will have electricity in the future. Director Li, remember to come and visit us more often. As long as you come to your home, I will I’ll give you a 30% discount.”

"Okay, no problem, just give me a 30% discount, and you won't be afraid that I will bankrupt your store."

"As long as you can lead our village to continue to develop rapidly, I will be happy if you go bankrupt."

The old rice man on the side laughed and scolded: "Oh, it seems that our village has another flatterer."

Lao Yang rolled his eyes and said, "You are the best at flattering someone. You are so old. Why don't you be ashamed to flatter a young man?"

After hearing this, everyone on the dock couldn't help laughing.

After chatting with everyone casually for a few words.

Li Duoyu came to the fishing gear shop on the pier and saw no one in the shop.

Li Duoyu shouted directly: "Old Chen, are you here? If not, I will move all the things."

The shop owner's voice came from the backyard: "You can move things wherever you want, it's okay, just remember to pay."

After a while, an old man wearing black-rimmed glasses walked into the store from the backyard.

Li Duoyu asked curiously: "How come we haven't seen each other for a while and we are all wearing glasses?"

Chen Shuinian, the owner of the fishing gear shop, sighed and said, "I'm getting older. If I mend my net now, I wouldn't be able to see clearly if I didn't wear this thing."

Li Duoyu smiled and asked:

"Is there a 40-mesh dragnet in the store?"

Lao Chen thought for a moment: "Almost no one buys a net as small as 40 mesh. Just wait for me and I'll go look for it. There seem to be two more in the warehouse."

After a while.

Lao Chen pulled out two 40-mesh dragnets from the warehouse: "There are just two left. What kind of fish are you using this fine net to catch?"

"Just catch some small fish."

Chen Shuinian was surprised: "Are we going to start fishing for eel fry again?"

"No, the eel fry aren't in season yet."

Chen Shuinian did not ask any more questions and said directly: "These two nets have been on sale for two or three years. If you want them all, I will give you the purchase price directly."

"That's okay. Give me both of these nets."

After Li Duoyu bought the dragnet, he said to the boss: "Old Chen, hurry up and buy the goods. Just buy this kind of fine net. Many people will come to buy this kind of net in the past two days."

Old Chen frowned slightly, wondering what medicine Li Duoyu was selling in his gourd.

"You're not kidding me."

Li Duoyu rolled his eyes and said, "I'm like the kind of person who likes to joke. I'm very serious. Okay, hurry up and buy it. If it's not sold out, I'll give you the bottom line."

"With your words, I feel relieved. I will sail right away to purchase goods."

After Li Duoyu got the dragnet, he started making it on the spot at the dock.

In fact, it can also be caught directly with a trawl net, which is more efficient, but now that the two tugboats in the village are not available, Li Duoyu has to use a sampan to make the transition.

The method of catching cloves is similar to catching eel fry. All fish are in shallow water and can be caught with floating nets.

Li Duoyu tied the dragnet directly to the moso bamboo, and then tied two floating balls to ensure that the mouth of the net would not sink.

When Li Duoyu was making it, the fishermen at the dock were very curious and saw Li Duoyu moving the iron pots to the back of the sampan boat.

Everyone was puzzled.

Lao Mi Tou asked with a smile:

"Duoyu, you built such a big pot, are you planning to cook a big meal on the sea?"

Li Duoyu chuckled and said, "I'll try it first, and you'll know what I'm going to do later."

Some fishermen also joked: "If you build such a big pot, you won't be afraid of burning the boat."

"It's good to burn it. The more it burns, the more prosperous it will be."

Li Duoyu knew that the other party was just joking. The fishing boats were made of hardwood and it was difficult to catch fire.

Besides, the ship is in the sea. If it catches fire, it’s just a matter of a bucket of water.

Fishermen have always had the habit of lighting fires on their boats. The trawl boats of Uncle San and Uncle also have large iron pots.

After all the firewood and fresh water were prepared, my uncle Chen Dongqing, who had changed his clothes, rushed to the dock.

Chen Dongqing looked at the fishing tools on the sampan boat and asked curiously: "There are many fish, and it's not the season for eels. What kind of fish are you using such a fine net to catch?"

"You still have a big pot, what are you doing?"

Li Duoyu replied: "I'm going to Dinghaiwan to catch a very small transparent fish, the kind that everyone was too lazy to catch before."

"Is Li Shui rotten?"

Li Duoyu gave a thumbs up and said: "Awesome, you are worthy of being a top student, you can get it done with just one click."

The corner of Chen Dongqing's mouth twitched. He didn't know why, but every time he was praised by his nephew, he felt particularly uncomfortable.

Seeing that they were about to set off, Zhao Dahai, who was sorting out the fishing nets at the side, asked with a smile: "Brother Yu, do you have any good projects?"

Li Duoyu didn't bother to explain: "You just learn from me and make a set of fishing tools like this, and then maybe you will make a lot of money."

"Okay, I'll do it right away."

Zhao Dahai didn't even think twice and just did what Li Duoyu said.

In the past two months, Erniu had caught green crab seedlings for Li Duoyu, making him a lot of money and making him envious.

But there really hasn't been much to earn recently. In the past two months, he had managed a small amount of money, which allowed him to make a small profit.

But since everyone knows how to catch small tubes with lights, people not only in Xiasha Village, but also in Chenjia Village followed suit and started catching small tubes with lights.

Because too many people were arrested, the price collapsed. Last year, the two brothers earned 5,000 yuan in a whole month.

Today he did it by himself, and he only earned more than 300 yuan in the whole month.

His younger brother, Erniu, was lucky enough to take an order from Brother Yu to catch blue crab seedlings. In two months, he earned nearly one thousand and fifty from catching blue crabs and crab seedlings.

The house has one more floor than his. A few days ago, the two of them went to buy a bed together. He bought the cheapest hard bed.

Erniu bought the latest bunk bed, and in front of him, he deliberately added a 50-yuan brown shed mattress, and said in a sinister manner:

"For wedding mattresses, you should buy a softer one. If it's too hard, your knees will get bruised easily."

Zhao Dahai naturally knew what Erniu was talking about, and he was so angry that he didn't have a good meal for several days.

When Brother Yu said this this time, Zhao Dahai had an intuition that it was his turn to be prosperous this time.
