Chapter 272 Ding Xiaoxiang’s confession is lenient and a slap in the face
Zhao Dahai continued to cast the rod while thinking about it. In the same situation, in less than two or three minutes, he pulled up another string of five sand pointed fish.
many!
There are really many!
Zhao Dahai looked around and saw that this was a fishing spot dedicated to fishing for sand pointed fish.
Is it because there are not many fishing boats fishing here? Or maybe it has nothing to do with the number of fishing boats, but simply because there are so many fish?
Is it the reason for the fishing moratorium?
The more Zhao Dahai thought about it, the more he felt it was most likely the reason.
There are many small fishing boats fishing in the inland sea. Strictly speaking, the fishing boats of Zhong Shizhu, Liu Bin and Lei Dayou belong to this type of fishing boats. They generally do not exceed thirty nautical miles, and most of the time they are between ten and twenty nautical miles.
Set fishing nets within the area to catch fish.
Now is the fishing moratorium. These fishing boats are not allowed to go out to sea to fish. They are all parked at the pier. With so many fewer people going out to sea, there are slowly more and more fish, shrimps and crabs.
Zhao Dahai was a bit dumbfounded. He had been running out to sea for the past two days, but there were no fish. He thought he would take this opportunity to rest for a few days, spend some time with his grandma Zhong Cuihua, and do more work at home. If there were so many fish in the inland sea, what would happen if there were so many fish in the inland sea?
Gotta get busy.
Zhao Dahai picked fish, hung shrimp meat, and threw the rod out. He took out another rod and prepared to tie another fishing group to directly increase production. Before he could tie it up in time, a fish immediately pulled the rod.
It’s over!
The fish in the inland sea are really going to explode now!
Zhao Dahai put down the pole in his hand, picked up the pole on the boat and picked up the fish. He immediately reeled in the line and pulled it back. There was another bunch full of fish.
Coming!
here we go again!
Five!
Another five!
Zhao Dahai worked one rod after another, constantly throwing the rod and reeling in the line to catch the fish. He was busy at first. He started with one string hook and then changed to seven hooks. With one drag, there were six or seven pieces of sand as big as two fingers.
For pointy fish, I caught fish in one go until two o'clock in the afternoon, and then the fish gradually became scarce.
Crazy!
Is this sand pointed fish really crazy?
Zhao Dahai picked up the water cup, drank gulps of water, rested for a while, and opened the lid of the refrigerator. Within half a day, it was filled with sand pointed fish, no less than forty pounds, and they were all quite impressive in size.
Isn't this sandy area full of sand pointed fish?
Zhao Dahai squinted at the area in front of him. The sea water was not deep, and in some places he could even directly see the sand on the bottom of the sea. This is the favorite environment of the sand pointed fish.
Sand point fish will form large or small schools, but the smaller ones will burrow in the sand, especially during the day.
Zhao Dahai took out his lunch box and finished his meal. After resting for less than ten minutes, he changed two or three spots around the beach in the middle, found a school of fish, and continued to fish for sand pointed fish.
"Dry!"
"There are too many fish!"
“Come here tomorrow and continue fishing for sand pointed fish!”
Zhao Dahai fished until the sun set, and when he saw that he could no longer see the fish, he packed up his pole and returned to the dock.
The night fills the air.
Every household in the fishing village has lights on.
Zhao Dahai rode his tricycle and parked in front of his house. He carried a large refrigerator down and opened the courtyard door and walked in. He didn't even bother to take a sip of water without taking a break. He immediately packed up the sand pointed fish he caught today and kept it ice-cold.
"grandmother!"
"No fish for sale tomorrow."
"Keep fishing!"
Zhao Dahai held a big bowl and took big mouthfuls of rice.
"ah?"
"Are there really so many fish?"
Zhong Cuihua was very surprised.
Zhao Dahai pointed to the refrigerator in the corner. He caught almost a hundred kilograms of sand pointed fish today. Even if he puts out a fishing net, he may not be able to catch so many. His hands are now sore.
"There are a lot of fish in the sea these days!"
“Most people who fish don’t realize this!”
"Hurry up and fish for two more days, and wait for everyone to react and realize that there are more fish in the sea, and every fishing spot will be crowded with people, and it will be difficult to fish by then."
Zhao Dahai took a sip of soup and swallowed a sip of rice.
When I caught big yellow snapper, big black snapper and big sea bass yesterday, I didn’t think much about it. I thought it was just good luck. Today I caught so many sand pointed fish. It’s impossible to be so lucky every day. It can only be because there are so many fish in the sea.
.
Not to mention the sand pointed fish that is 100 kilograms smaller, even the sand pointed fish that is forty or fifty kilograms is very valuable. A sand pointed fish as big as two fingers can be sold for forty yuan per catty, or even fifty yuan per catty.
catty.
If it's forty or fifty kilograms, that's two thousand yuan. If I caught almost one hundred kilograms today, it's four to five thousand yuan.
You may not be able to earn so much every day by fishing in the open sea.
Zhao Dahai originally planned to rest for two or three days and continue to go out to sea. But now it is not necessary. He must seize the golden opportunity and fish in the inland sea for a few days.
Zhao Dahai finished his dinner, took a shower and went to bed early to get up early to go fishing tomorrow.
Dashi Village.
Ding Chongshan, Zhang Li and Ding Xiaoxiang are eating.
"How was the harvest of large yellow croakers in the past few days? Have they all been sold?"
Zhang Li looked at Ding Chongshan.
"Um!"
"We collected a total of forty-eight catties and seven taels."
“The quantity is quite large, but I didn’t receive any big ones!”
"There are only two that weigh nine taels, and none that weigh one pound."
Ding Chongshan shook his head. A few days ago, a school of large yellow croaker appeared in the open sea. Two to three hundred speedboats went out to fish. Each speedboat could always catch three to five catties or even ten to eight catties. They were all relatively small in size.
There are no big ones, I collected more than 48 kilograms, but they are all small items.
The bigger the yellow croaker is, the more valuable it is.
Three-two-five-liang fish, even those weighing less than a kilogram, are not very valuable. But there is no way, the entire fish group is relatively small.
"Isn't there anyone who has caught a big yellow croaker?"
"That's unlikely, isn't it?"
Zhang Li was very surprised. How could such a large school of fish not include a larger yellow croaker?
It’s not surprising that Ding Chongshan couldn’t accept it, but there must be someone who can.
Ding Xiaoxiang's little ears perked up. When she heard about the giant yellow croaker, especially the big giant yellow croaker, she suddenly felt a little uncomfortable.
"There's nothing weird about that!"
"Fish like the large yellow croaker are all shoals. Especially this time, the huge shoals are mostly small fish, or almost exclusively small fish."
"But I heard that some people caught big fish, and some even caught a large yellow croaker weighing more than ten pounds."
"I just don't know if this is true!"
"I and some colleagues have been inquiring about the news these days."
"Nothing to show for it."
Ding Chongshan frowned. Two or three taels or five or six taels of large yellow croaker are really worthless. They are just slightly better than ordinary fish. The ones that are really valuable are big ones. It is embarrassing to say that they are less than one kilogram.
Big yellow croaker.
"Someone can catch it, how can it be that no one can see it?"
“It must be true that so many speedboats are fishing in one place!”
"Can't anyone recognize the person who caught the big yellow croaker or which village the speedboat belongs to? They all work in this industry, so someone must know him, right?"
Zhang Li is very strange.
"Um!"
"Some people say that Zhao Dahai from Langtou Village caught these big yellow croakers. I don't know if this is true."
Ding Chongshan took a sip of the fish soup. Some news did come out, but he didn't know whether it was true or false.
Zhang Li immediately turned around and looked at Ding Xiaoxiang sitting next to her.
"ah?"
"mom!"
"What do you think I do?"
Ding Xiaoxiang secretly complained in her heart.
"Did you hear anything?"
Zhang Li asked Ding Xiaoxiang nonchalantly but her eyes were as sharp as looking upside down.
"It is true that someone caught a big yellow croaker, and that person was Zhao Dahai. The biggest one weighed twelve or three pounds."
Ding Xiaoxiang was very helpless and could only confess and be lenient. Zhao Dahai saw it with his own eyes when he came back from fishing for large yellow croaker. The key is that the person who bought the large yellow croaker was Liu Gang. Liu Gang knew his father and mother very well. He had snatched it for himself in the past few days.
When I went to Liu Gang's restaurant to deliver fish, shrimps and crabs, I just didn't want Liu Gang to meet his wife and not talk about it. It was fine for a few days and I thought it was over. I didn't expect to mention it again during dinner tonight.
"What?"
"Twelve or three pounds!?"
Zhang Li was startled.
"No way? It seems like the news is true!"
Ding Chongshan put down the chopsticks in his hand and looked at Ding Xiaoxiang.
Ding Xiaoxiang simply poured the beans into the bamboo tube and told them all immediately. Zhao Dahai caught seven or eight small yellow croakers. There were probably seven or eight fish weighing two or three kilograms, and the largest one weighed twelve or three kilograms.
Ding Chongshan and Zhang Li, look at me and I look at you. People who are in this line of business know very well what this means.
"wrong!"
"How do you know so clearly!?"
Zhang Li raised her eyebrows, and then she realized how Ding Xiaoxiang knew so well how many large yellow croakers Zhao Dahai had caught.
"How do you know? Do you need to say this? You must have seen it with your own eyes!"
Ding Xiaoxiang sighed inwardly. If she had a choice, she would definitely not want to talk about this matter. Liu Gang happened to be on the speedboat that day.
"Why did you go to Zhao Dahai's speedboat?"
Zhang Lili's face suddenly darkened. When did Ding Xiaoxiang run to Zhao Dahai's speedboat!?
"mom!"
"Remember, didn't you tell me a few days ago that you wanted to find out whether Zhao Dahai caught a large yellow croaker?"
"Didn't I say that I went to see Yang Qin to play that day?"
"I thought of this when I arrived at Yang Qin's house. I was very curious. So the two of us went to the pier of Langtou Village to have a look. We happened to see Zhao Dahai's speedboat coming back."
"Liu Gang has been waiting there for the big yellow croaker caught by Zhao Dahai, so he went up with him to have a look!"
Ding Xiaoxiang didn't speak very smoothly at first, and then she spoke faster and faster.
"Yo!"
"Taking it all together, if I hadn't mentioned this matter, you wouldn't have been able to find Zhao Dahai, right?"
"This is my fault, isn't it?"
Zhang Li immediately understood the meaning of Xiaoxiang's words.
"ah?"
"mom!"
"What's wrong with you?"
"You must be right!"
"But if you hadn't mentioned this matter, I really wouldn't have gone to Zhao Dahai!"
Ding Xiaoxiang's head kept shaking like a rattle. She definitely couldn't say that I was wrong. If she said this, she would cause trouble for herself. But she had to insist that if this old lady didn't mention what Zhao Dahai said, she would never go there.
It is impossible to do such a thing with Zhao Dahai.
Zhang Li stared at Ding Xiaoxiang and was speechless for a moment. Love must not be that simple, but she did mention Zhao Dahai's fishing for large yellow croaker first that day.
"Is it the large yellow croaker that Liu Gang caught that weighed more than ten kilograms?"
Ding Chongshan interrupted what Zhang Li and Ding Xiaoxiang were talking about.
"It might be Liu Gang who bought it, or it might be another person."
"There are three people waiting on a speedboat. One is Liu Gang, and the other two I don't know, but they should be the more familiar ones that Zhao Dahai usually sells fish to."
Ding Xiaoxiang breathed a sigh of relief. Her father's question came just right. If my mother kept asking, she would have a headache.
"Besides a large yellow croaker weighing more than ten kilograms, are there any other smaller yellow croakers weighing two to three kilograms?"
Ding Chongshan asked immediately.
"Um."
"That's what Zhao Dahai said, but I didn't see it."
"I guess it's true!"
Ding Xiaoxiang nodded. There must be two or three kilograms of large yellow croaker, but she really didn't see it.
"Why!"
"Ding Xiaoxiang."
"You've already gone to see these big yellow croakers, why didn't you think of a way to collect them?"
"Didn't I tell you? If the price is right, take those big yellow croakers!"
"It's not like you don't know that your father is harvesting large yellow croakers!"
Zhang Li pointed at Ding Xiaoxiang's forehead as she spoke, and they all boarded Zhao Dahai's speedboat. They didn't catch the big yellow croaker, and it felt like the wife who gave him a gift was defeated again.
"mom!"
"You don't really want to sell your daughter, do you? Just a few kilograms of large yellow croaker will do!?"
"You told me earlier!"
"Don't say you have accepted them, even if they are all delivered to your door, that's fine, as long as you are willing to let go of your daughter!"
Ding Xiaoxiang does not suffer.
"ha!"
"What did I say you two were arguing about? You've been bickering all day long."
"Where did the idea that your mother was going to sell you come from?"
Ding Chongshan found it very funny.
"dad!"
"Zhao Dahai caught a big yellow croaker, he must sell it!"
"I told me a few days ago that I should go find Zhao Dahai and see if I can accept those large yellow croakers."
"I told you, why did Zhao Dahai sell it to our family so cheaply?"
"Unless I fall in love with your daughter!"
"Zhao Dahai has his own seller."
"Not to mention anything else, the price offered by Liu Gang is definitely higher than ours!"
Ding Xiaoxiang was not convinced.
"ha!"
"That's right!"
Ding Chongshan smiled, his price was indeed incomparable to Liu Gang's.
"Do you know the price?"
When Ding Chongshan saw Zhang Li, who was sitting opposite him, opening his mouth to refute, he immediately shook his head and asked another question.
"The big one costs 50,000 yuan per pound. Zhao Dahai agreed to the price."
Ding Xiaoxiang picked up the bowl and took a sip of the soup. When she heard the price a few days ago, she didn't pay much attention to it. But now she realizes that the price is quite high.
"Fifty thousand yuan per pound?"
"If a fish weighs twelve or three pounds, wouldn't it cost six to seven hundred thousand yuan?"
Zhang Li was startled.
"well!"
"This price is indeed good, but the key is that we really can't offer it at this price."
"We changed hands, and Liu Gang sold it directly to those bosses. The difference is a bit big."
"It's too risky for us to spend 50,000 yuan per catty to buy a fish like this."
Ding shook his head heavily and sighed. It's not that the price of this large yellow croaker is too high, or that this large yellow croaker is not worth the money. If you accept it yourself, you have to take a certain risk, and it is not particularly cost-effective.
"mom!"
"Did you hear that?"
"What did I say?"
"Our prices are definitely not as good as those of people like Liu Gang."
Ding Xiaoxiang looked at Zhang Li proudly.
"Yo!"
"You've got an advantage and you behave like a good boy, right? In total, you're not at fault at all, it's all your fault that's your wife's fault?"
Zhang Li stared and put down the chopsticks in her hand.
"ah?!"
"dad!"
"You and my mother eat slowly. When I'm full, I'll go play at Yang Qin's house!"
When Ding Xiaoxiang saw that something was wrong, she had been too complacent just now, so she chose the thirty-sixth move as the best strategy. She put down her bowl and chopsticks, stood up immediately, turned around and trotted out.
"What did you interrupt me for just now?"
When Zhang Li saw Ding Xiaoxiang leaving, her face immediately dropped. She wanted to ask Ding Xiaoxiang and Zhao Dahai what was going on several times, but Ding Chongshan always used questions to divert attention, especially when he just hit her.
A glance.
"Hehehe!"
"Ding Xiaoxiang has been a ghost since she was a child!"
"Your personality is up to you! Once you have made up your mind, don't think about changing it easily!"
Ding Chongshan smiled, he was not a fool, how could he not know that the matter between Zhao Dahai and his daughter was not that simple.
"snort!"
"If you know something is wrong, then you have to ask me carefully!"
"Whenever your daughter is really kidnapped, I think you won't even be able to cry!"
Zhang Li was very depressed.
"Didn't I tell you earlier?"
"My daughter will have to get married when she grows up. You can't keep her at home for the rest of your life, right?"
Ding Chongshan waved his hand.
"What happened!?"
"What if we keep her at home for the rest of our lives? Can't we afford it?"
"You don't treasure this daughter, I do."
Zhang Li's eyes widened and her mouth was unforgiving.
"Why!"
"Why don't I treasure this daughter!? What we are saying is that when a daughter grows up, she will eventually get married!"
"Either I know Zhao Dahai, or I know Li Dahai, or Sun Dahai, or someone like that. I either marry Zhao Dahai, or I marry Li Dahai, or Sun Dahai, or something like that!"
"But no matter who it is, whether it's Zhao Dahai or Li Dahai or Sun Dahai, it's not easy to marry my daughter, Ding Chongshan!"
Ding Chongshan knew that Zhang Li was angry with him.
"OK!"
"You can handle this matter! I can't see out of sight!"
Zhang Li stood up and walked back to the room without even eating.
"Zhao Dahai!?"
"I'll see you another day!"
"Right!"
"Isn't Lin Zuhua always thinking about going fishing with Zhao Dahai?"
"This is a good idea!"
Ding Chongshan thought about it for a while and decided to find a time to meet Zhao Dahai.
Want to marry your own daughter? It’s not an easy task!
After finishing his meal, Ding Chongshan drank a bowl of soup, walked to the table with the phone, picked it up, and dialed Lin Zuhua's number. He was free these days and would find time to meet Zhao Dahai.
