Arriving at the shipyard, the shipyard director was quite surprised to learn the purpose of Zhang Ze and others' visit.

There were two more boats. He didn't expect that he only had four fifteen-meter iron fishing boats in total, but Zhang Ze and his people bought them all.

This also made him think secretly whether this year's shipbuilding target should be tilted a little more toward 15-meter fishing boats.

It is not difficult to install a winch here in Zhang Ze. The shipyard also has fishing boats that specialize in longline fishing, so a winch is naturally available.

While he was installing the winch on his fishing boat, he also stopped by the boat of Zhang Zhenghong and others to teach them how to sail.

Driving a ship is not difficult, but entering, parking, and leaving the port requires more practice.

After Zhang Qinghe bought the boat and completed the formalities, he returned to the Wenshui City Pier. He wanted to go home and bring his brother over.

His ideas are different from Zhang Ze's, and he doesn't think he can do it alone.

After the winch was installed, it was already around 3:30 in the afternoon. A winch costs three hundred yuan, but it is definitely worth it to facilitate your own longline fishing.

Zhang Ze first went to the mangrove to collect the ground cage, and then came back and asked Zhang Zhenghong to follow him.

Return to Wenshui City and help him rent a berth nearby, then take out the sea red spots and lobsters in the space and put them in a backpack, hang the backpack on the bicycle and go home.

The time to go out to sea has been arranged, and we will continue setting off after lunch at noon tomorrow.

High tides can last for several days. Although the tides in the following days are not as strong as yesterday, the fish will still be more active than usual.

He borrowed a total of five thousand seven (the cousin's total was three thousand two), and he pressed a winch again today, so he must be more diligent.

But we can't fish one day and dry the net three days like before.

When he got home, Zhang Ze saw his wife knitting a sweater. Judging from the style, it was clearly for babies.

He suddenly felt that he should buy a sewing machine. He kept trying to get it ready, but in the past few days he had been busy with other things.

"Back!" Tong Shuyao showed a gentle smile after seeing him. After having a child, she seemed a little less girly than before, but her temperament was a bit more elegant.

"Well, I'm back." Zhang Ze pushed the bicycle in and parked it, then took out the fish and lobster and put it in the back kitchen.

It was almost time for dinner, and he had to finish the fish and lobster first.

Tong Shuyao also stood up and followed in. She was a little surprised when she saw the fish and lobster: "Why did you bring the sea red spot and lobster back and didn't sell them together?"

"Both sea red spots and lobsters are very nutritious. Now that you have one more in your belly, your nutrition must keep up."

"Then you don't need these two, they are so expensive!"

"I am short of money for your man?"

These words made Tong Shuyao burst into laughter: "I know you can do it, right?"

Zhang Ze was surprised: "Don't you know this best?"

Tong Shuyao was stunned for a moment, and the next moment she had a look of shame and annoyance on her face and said, "What are you talking about!"

"Hey!" After teasing his wife, Zhang Ze quickly killed the fish, put it on a large plate and brought it to a cool place. The fish was then steamed.

Picking up the lobster, he thought about it and decided to buy some carrots and tomatoes to make soup later.

Tomatoes can add a bit of sourness, I think Tong Shuyao will like it very much.

So he directly used a knife to poke into the small gap connecting the head and the body, and pulled it in a circle to directly separate the lobster head from the body.

The blood in the lobster's body flows cleanly very quickly, much faster than the human body.

***In fact, the lobster blood is added, but that is only done when it is steamed or grilled with cheese.

He now took out the entire meat from the lobster's body and cut it into pieces.

The meat yield rate of the five-pound Dahualong is quite good. He did not throw away the shell and will make soup together later.

After the meat was cut, he took a plate and used a spoon to remove the shrimp brains and roe from the head. Later, he beat two eggs to make a shrimp yolk egg custard.

Shrimp brains, shrimps and yellow Tong Shuyao are not suitable for eating, which is why he can't cook them together.

There is actually a lot of meat in the lobster head. Zhang Ze cut open the head with a knife, cut off the gills, and then chopped it into small pieces, and a lobster was ready.

Putting everything on the plate, when he turned around, he found Tong Shuyao leaning on the wall next to him, looking at him with blurred eyes.

He washed his hands, dried them, went up and brushed away some strands of long hair from his wife's forehead, and said softly: "What's wrong, you keep looking at me?"

Tong Shuyao shook his head slightly: "It's nothing, I just think you are so awesome, you seem to know everything."

"Who said that?" Zhang Ze smiled and said in her doubtful eyes, "I don't know how to give birth."

Tong Shuyao's eyes, which were originally filled with love and admiration, suddenly became clear and she said: "Yes, yes, having children will not only lead to sowing seeds, right?"

Zhang Ze couldn't help but laugh. He didn't expect that his usually shy daughter-in-law would also say a tough word.

He reached out and pinched her little face that was still baby-fat, and kissed her pink lips: "What kind of food is there tonight at home? I'm going to the market to buy some on the way."

"Mom bought some pork and eggs today, and as for vegetables, there are broccoli and cabbage."

"Okay, then I'll buy some lobster soup side dishes."

"Well, I'll boil some water for you, so you can take a shower when you come back."

Zhang Ze opened his mouth and was about to stop him, but he felt that Tong Shuyao's belly wasn't big yet and boiling water didn't seem to be a problem, so he nodded and got on his bicycle and went out again.

But he did not go to the market immediately. Instead, he came to an old house next to the former black market in the city and knocked on the door five times in a rhythm of two fast and three slow.

After a short while, footsteps were heard inside, and then the door was opened a little.

When the people inside saw Zhang Ze, they immediately welcomed him in enthusiastically.

There were only two people in the room, both of them men. Both of them were only 1.65 meters tall and had ordinary looks, the kind that would be ignored in a crowd.

Zhang Ze could know them because he bought some things on the black market and asked them from the sellers.

These two people were ticket sellers, and they had all kinds of tickets. When he came to Wenshui City and he didn't have enough tickets, he would buy them from these two people. Over time, he became a regular customer.

This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! This house is not a residence for the two of them, it is just a temporary ticket selling place.

There are five places in this place, but Zhang Ze doesn't know if there are more. Anyway, since there is no one here, he has to knock on the door elsewhere.

I was lucky today, I found the right place right away.

"What tickets do you want to buy today?" one of them asked.

"One ticket for sewing, four tickets for watches, two tickets for radio, and how many cloth tickets there are. Take them out and let me see."

When Zhang Ze reported this number, the two ticket sellers took a deep breath and were overjoyed.

This is a big order, how could anyone just buy several tickets with three turns and one ring?

"wait."

The two of them walked into the inner room together and came out after a short while with some tickets.

"I just have one sewing ticket. I only have two watch tickets here. The radio tickets are just enough. There are also cloth tickets. Take a look."

One of them took out the tickets, and the other said, "You have to wait two days for the remaining two watch tickets. You can come back here to get them in the afternoon the day after tomorrow."

Zhang Ze nodded and collected all the tickets after asking the price. The total cost was three hundred and fifty.

After leaving here, he went to a state-owned tailor shop.

After communicating with the tailor in the shop for a long time, I ordered three pieces of maternity clothes.

There are no maternity clothes in this era. The best thing to do is make the clothes bigger to make maternity clothes more comfortable.

The old master of the tailor shop was a middle-aged woman. She was shocked when she heard the maternity clothes painted by Zhang Ze. She learned that he designed them for her pregnant daughter-in-law. She admired him very much and even wanted to recruit him as an apprentice.

If he had agreed to this ten years ago, there were actually quite a few men working as tailors in this era.

But now, what could be as fun as fishing?

He went to the department store to buy some cloth to make clothes and diapers for his future child, and then he went to the market to buy lobster side dishes.

As for sewing machines, watches, etc., he only had more than 200 left with him. The money was not enough, so he could only wait until he came back from his next trip to sea.

When we got home again, Zhang's mother's shop was already busy. She was a little surprised to see Zhang Ze coming back after buying some vegetables. She went to take a nap in the afternoon and didn't notice that her son had come back.

"Mom, I'll cook it tonight, you just have to worry about yourself."

"You went to sea and came back to cook, aren't you tired?"

"Why are you tired? This is much easier than farming before."

Mother Zhang nodded, feeling that this was true.

She didn't know that fishing was actually very hard for fishermen. She had only seen Zhang Ze fishing and thought it was quite relaxing.

Go and bring all the dishes Zhang's mother cooked for lunch to his side. When dinner is ready, he can heat it up and eat it. Then he starts making his own lobster soup.

Lobster soup is not troublesome to make. Cut the carrots and tomatoes into pieces, put the lobster heads and shells into the pot and stir-fry. Then add the vegetables and stir-fry until fragrant. Add water to make the soup. When it is almost cooked, add the lobster meat.

After cooking, Zhang Ze tasted it himself. It was a bit bland but very sweet.

Basically, people in coastal cities in the south tend to eat lighter food, and some even have sweet food in some places.

Therefore, this soup still tastes very good to their family members, and there is no need to make lobster bisque.

The next step was to steam fish, make egg custard and cook rice, which Tong Shuyao knew how to do, so Zhang Ze went upstairs to take a bath.

He couldn't stand the smell of fish and sweat. If he didn't have to cook for fear of sweating, he would definitely go upstairs to take a shower when he came back.
