1983 Small Island, Starting From a Large Farmer

 After the network package is opened.

 All kinds of marine cargo covered the deck.

Li Duoyu came to Third Uncle's boat and glanced at the net of seafood. It was a bit mixed, but there were still a lot of good ones.

 Li Duoyu even saw several good gargi fish.

 The fishermen who go out to sea like this fish very much.

 gaji,gaji,

 Happy trip to sea!

Once the fishermen catch it themselves, they will definitely get one or two to eat.

If these fish were sold in bulk, they might fetch more than a hundred yuan.

But if sold to a fishmonger at the dock, the net cost would be about 70 yuan. After deducting labor costs and boat fees, you would not make any money at all, and you might have to pay a subsidy.

 Uncle Zhuang doesn't know how to cook lately, and everyone's appetite has also become bad, and they are all complaining that his cooking is not delicious.

While everyone was picking fish, he asked for some less expensive conch, shrimp, scallops, shells, and octopus, which are not easy to cook.

 I plan to make a pot of seafood chowder for everyone at noon.

 Li Duoyu frowned when he saw Uncle Zhuang pouring all the seafood into a pot and cooking it.

 Maybe there is a lot of seafood, so just do whatever you want. Coastal fishermen cook seafood very simply, just cook it in a big pot.

If you eat like this normally, there won't be much of a problem, but after being at sea for so many days, the people on the boat are all tired of eating seafood.

  It’s almost to the point where talking about “freshness” becomes a color change.

 Tell Li Duoyu directly that the evaluation of Uncle Zhuang's seafood hodgepodge is probably not particularly good.

  After all, as a professional cook, he knows very well the cooking time of each type of seafood.

 Conch should be boiled for at least 10 minutes.

 The tape only takes 4 minutes.

 Octopus weighing less than half a pound only takes two minutes. If cooked for too long, it will be like chewing rubber.

Plus, he has been eating cabbage these days. To be honest, Li Duoyu is really tired of eating, so he might as well make something delicious to reward himself.

“Uncle Zhuang, I will be the leader today.”

Hearing that Li Duoyu wanted to be a gang leader, Lao Zhuang said helplessly: "I feel that the older I get, the more useless I am. Now I can't even cook well."

Li Duoyu smiled: "How is it possible? Among the men on our island who can cook, you can at least be in the top three."

"You won't be able to support me anymore, I'll let you do it today and cook a better meal for everyone."

 After eating his grilled eel last time, Uncle Zhuang was convinced of his cooking skills.

When Li Zhengfa, the boss of the boat, saw that Duoyu wanted to take the spoon, he thought carefully: "Duoyu has already cooked. We must drink two cups today."

 Heard there was wine to drink.

Every crew member's eyes were enlarged, and their hands and feet instantly became much more agile.

When you go fishing at sea, it is generally forbidden to drink alcohol, because you are afraid of causing trouble if you drink too much, and may even fall into the sea.

 Chen Liang, who was cleaning the trawl net, couldn't help but ask after hearing that Li Duoyu wanted to cook:

“Heigou, Brother Yu can cook, why didn’t I know?”

Hei Gou thought for a while and said, "I don't know very well, but I heard from people who used to hang out with him that the dream of Brother Yu and A Gui is to go to the island country to be cooks. It's normal to know how to cook."

 “That’s it”

 Almost, more than half an hour.

Li Duoyu brought out the cooked seafood one after another and placed them directly on the two assembled wooden boxes.

 The crew members all couldn’t help but salivate after seeing the dishes that were delicious and delicious.

 “This dish looks delicious.”

Chen Liang's eyes widened. He really didn't expect Li Duoyu to be so good at cooking. He leaned over and took a sniff:

“If the leader were replaced by Brother Yu, I would definitely live on the boat and not get off.”

When Chen Youquan heard this, his face darkened, and he slapped his son on the head.

“Can you speak? I am a great chef, how can I cook for you all the time?”

 Chen Liang had a grimace on his face. This was the 21st time his father had shot him in the head on board the ship.

Seeing Chen Liang being beaten, Lao Zhuang sighed: "You Quan, Xiao Liang is right, don't beat him all the time, my cooking is indeed not delicious."

Uncle Zhuang grinned and said: "It seems that if I want to work on the boat in the future, I have to learn how to cook from Duoyu."

Other crew members shouted: "We can't have a master apprenticeship ceremony."

The boss of the boat, Li Zhengfa, laughed and said: "Lao Zhuang, you are already doing well. Before you got on the boat, we ate even worse. We only had salted hairtail fish and pickles every meal."

Second uncle, who had just taken a sip of wine, said: "Stop talking about salted hairtail fish and pickled vegetables on the boat. Thinking about it makes me feel sick."

The crew were all quite satisfied with this meal.

 After everyone has eaten and drank.

It was getting dark, but everyone did not go to rest, because the fish in the last net were not good, and today we will pay for it.

 So, I will definitely do it again in the evening.

“Third uncle, let me try another net.” Li Shuguang, who did not believe in evil, planned to try another net.

Although the ship boss Li Zhengfa likes to joke, it can be seen that Shu Guang is so serious, so he is still very supportive.

 Setting down the net after dark is like a blind man fishing for fish in the river. Except for the unique fishing experience of the boat boss, it is actually just trying his luck.

But with a fish finder, it's completely different. Li Shuguang observed the fish finder carefully.

 Then he picked up the walkie-talkie and shouted:

"There is a school of fish here. Third uncle can lower the net and drag it in the direction of our fishing boat."

 Almost, two hours later.

 The trawler collects the net again.

 The fish caught in this net is quite good compared to the previous one.

There are not many miscellaneous fish in the net. They are all silvery-white sea fish, such as giant catfish.

This fish not only looks similar to anchovy, but also tastes similar. It is also called a low-end version of anchovy.

The locals also call it Cao Bai and Liyu. Some people are too lazy to give it a name and just call it Baiyu.

This fish tastes very delicious. This fish is very delicious when made into soy sauce. The only bad thing is that there are a lot of small spines.

Speaking of which, Li Duoyu discovered an interesting thing, that is, people on the seaside are actually less knowledgeable about picking fish bones than those in the mainland.

 People on the seaside really don’t like this kind of fish with many bones. The fishermen on the seaside are used to eating fish in large quantities. Suddenly, a fish full of bones is impossible to eat, and they dare not feed it to their children.

However, here in Zhoushan, there is a specialty made from the giant catfish. Li Duoyu forgot about it, and it seems that it is called the three-armed giant catfish.

 In fact, it is salted mullet fish.

However, for the locals, the most delicious salted catfish is best only when it is salted until it becomes a bit smelly.

Li Duoyu has eaten it once before and felt that it was just like durian. It was definitely not right the first time she ate it. But once you get used to it, it will become more delicious and addictive.

By the time the shad net was finished and the deck was cleaned, it was already past twelve o'clock in the morning.

The crew members, who had been working hard all day, were all so tired that their waists were pounding. Many of them went to sleep in the cabin without even wiping themselves.

There were also a few crew members who were a little more tidy. They took buckets and fetched some sea water to wash themselves. Others fetched water and washed their clothes.

“Lao Gao, you’re not afraid of catching a cold if you take a shower on such a cold day.”

The old fisherman named Lao Gao complained: "If I don't wash them, my underwear will be stained with meat. The old Chen family complains about my smelly feet every day."

“When you say that, I also feel a little itchy. I also feel that my underwear is soaked. Would you like to wash it for me?”

"roll."

Li Duoyu was on the fishing boat. After taking a simple shower and washing a set of clothes, he and his cousin Li Shuguang lay down in the cab and fell asleep.

 Can sleep until most of the night.

 The radar in the cab actually made a beeping alarm sound.

 After hearing the siren.

Li Duoyu immediately stood upright. He immediately looked at the radar screen and found two small dots, which were very close to their fishing boat.

Li Shuguang also woke up. After seeing the small dot on the radar, he asked: "Is there a fishing boat approaching?"

“Well, it’s very close to us, almost only a hundred meters away.”

“It’s so close, but I didn’t hear any movement, not even the sound of an engine.”

 The two of them took out two long guns and flashlights directly from the cabinet and loaded them with bullets.

 Come to the deck and take a look.

The two of them discovered that there was no moon tonight, the entire sea was pitch black, and nothing could be seen at the place shown by the radar.

If you don’t listen carefully, you won’t even hear the sound of fishing boats paddling.

“The grass was actually rowed here, and I didn’t hear the sound of fishing boats, so it was actually rowed here.”

 I saw that the other party’s fishing boat was very close.

Li Duoyu directly started the fishing boat, turned on all the lights, illuminated the location detected by the radar, and pressed the fishing boat alarm button.

The siren sounded instantly, like a thunder in the dark night, and all the sleeping crew members on the Third Uncle's ship were awakened.

"I haven't slept for two hours yet, why do I have to get up and work again?"

 After hearing the siren, the old crew members obviously felt that something was wrong, and they all picked up the guys in their hands.

 “Dad, what’s going on?”

“Why do you all have knives in your hands?”

Chen Youquan frowned and said seriously: "You guys, close the hatch and don't come out yet." "Is someone coming to rob you, or are you going to fight with the local fishermen?"

Chen Youquan frowned and said, "I don't know either. Anyway, don't come out."

After the old fisherman came to the deck, he found that Li Duoyu's fishing boat had pointed its searchlight at two small sampans very close to them.

There were all young fishermen on the sampan boat. Many of them were wet and all of them were shivering from the cold.

 A slightly older young man shouted: "Can you turn off the lights first? It's too dazzling."

The old fisherman frowned and looked at this group of young people, feeling that something was wrong. They were all young children, and the oldest one was only in his early twenties.

 An old fisherman shouted:

“Where are you from, so close to our ship in the middle of the night? What are you doing?”

On the sampan boat, a young man in the lead replied:

“Can you help us? One of us fell into the water before. Now it’s so cold that he feels like he’s about to freeze to death.”

Although they looked pitiful, the few old fishermen on the boat did not let down their guard.

Although there is a rule for fishermen when they go out to sea, if they encounter difficulties, they must help them unconditionally.

Even if you encounter a drifter, you have to find a way to bring him back.

But it was so late at night, and you suddenly came so close to our fishing boat without making any sound, it would be a problem for anyone to let you go.

The second uncle frowned and shouted: "First tell me what's going on. Why did you bring the sampan to the open sea so late?"

“We originally drove the boat out to fish, but we got lost at sea. The boat ran out of fuel, so we could only float on the sea. We just happened to see your boat’s light on, so we rowed towards you.”

 When the old fisherman on the boat heard this, he realized that this reason actually made some sense.

After all, young people love to play and often secretly take out their family fishing boats to play. This happens quite often.

 But during the conversation just now, Li Duoyu recognized the accent of the other party, which seemed to be from their side.

“Shuguang, do the accents of those young people sound a bit like those in the town next door to us?”

Li Shuguang thought about it for a while: "It does seem a bit like it. There seems to be something wrong with these little brats."

 “Yeah.” Li Duoyu nodded.

Seeing the group of people rowing closer and closer, Li Duoyu shouted directly on the walkie-talkie: "Uncle Third, keep your distance first, I feel there is something wrong."

“The accent sounds like it’s from our side. Their sampans can’t drive so far. There are probably other boats.”

Li Zhengfa also noticed something was wrong and started the fishing boat directly. The propeller created huge waves and pushed them away.

"what happened?"

“Why did you sail the ship away?”

“We are all dying from the cold, and one of us is dying. Please help us.”

Seeing that the big boat deliberately moved away from them, the two small sampans immediately rowed towards Li Duoyu's fishing boat.

One young man even cried loudly: "Don't be like this, we are all fellow villagers, please save us, we are dying of cold."

 The old fisherman frowned and glanced at the wheelhouse, realizing that the boss of their ship had no intention of rescuing anyone.

But going to sea.

The crew must listen to the boss of the ship, and everything is subject to the judgment of the boss of the ship. If the boss of the ship chooses not to save, then they have no choice.

After Uncle San’s boat pulled away, the two sampans turned around and rowed towards Li Duoyu’s fishing boat.

 But the fishing boat was more maneuverable and immediately opened a distance of at least fifty meters from them.

　　“Why are you so unwilling to save me?”

 After maintaining a certain distance, Li Duoyu shouted with a loudspeaker:

"If you have no oil, we can throw a barrel of oil to you and you can sail back by yourself."

The young man in the lead on the sampan boat shouted: "Our engine is broken, and there is another person on the boat who is dying. Please save him."

After hearing this, the old fishermen on the boat suddenly felt a little compassionate, and they vaguely sensed that something was wrong with these young people.

  But what if it’s true?

Lao Jianghu’s second uncle thought of a compromise. He discussed it with the boat boss, and then shouted:

“The boss of our ship has said that we can save you, but we have to throw all the things on your ship into the sea, take off your clothes one by one in front of us, and make sure that you have nothing on you before we let you on the ship.

Also, after you get on our ship, we have no place for you to stay on the ship, so you can only stay in the cargo hold. "

In the cabin, Chen Liang, who heard this, exclaimed in surprise: "This is too cruel. Not only do you have to take off your clothes, but you also have to lock them in the cargo hold. That cabin is so small. If so many people go in, it won't be safe." It’s like inserting a razor clam.”

Black Dog couldn't help but pat Chen Liang's head: "You know a hammer. If you are not ruthless, you can't stand firm. More than a dozen stupid people boarded our fishing boat. If we really want to rebel, it will only be us, plus those He might just be thrown into the sea for helping Old Bones.”

Chen Liang kicked him back: "Damn it, my father just beat me. Why don't you imitate my father and hit me on the head?"

 “You are too stupid, let’s see if you can be smarter.”

But that group of young men did not accept the second uncle’s suggestion. Instead, they said in a cunning manner: "We are almost dying of cold, and you still ask us to take off our clothes."

 “You really want us to die quickly, don’t you?”

 “If we throw away our things and go back, we will be beaten to death by our family members.”

“Is your life more important, or your things?”

"Don't you just want these things on our ship? Just say it directly. There is no need to play such tricks."

The second uncle was so anxious that he wanted to bite someone, so he swore on the spot: "I **** your uncle, if you were my grandson, I would beat you to death with a stick on the spot."

"The things on our boat are much more valuable than your broken fishing nets. I asked you to take off your clothes to make sure you don't have anything dangerous on you."

"How could there be such a thing? Please hurry up and save us. We are almost freezing to death."

“Then you throw away everything on the boat first.”

At this time, Chen Liang and the young crew members finally couldn't hold it in any longer and came to the deck of the ship to look lively.

 Chen Liang looked at these young people with wide eyes, and suddenly said excitedly: "Are you Brother Zhu from Huang Qizhen?"

I saw someone on the boat who knew them.

Everyone on the sampan became nervous, and the leader's face instantly turned gloomy.

"who are you?"

“The lights on your boat are a bit dim, I can’t see your face clearly.”

“Brother Zhu is me, Chen Liang from Xiasha Village, Liu Mazi’s brother. When you came to our town for the market before, we drank together.”

“It’s Chen Liang, it turns out we are all fellow villagers.”

 In fact, the man named Brother Pig had no impression of the person in front of him at all, and he didn’t even remember drinking with this person.

However, what gave him a headache was.

It is not a good thing that someone on the ship actually knows them.

Someone on the boat whispered: "I told you not to mess with your fellow countrymen's boats, they will be easily recognized."

“We have been keeping an eye on them for so many days. They have been out at sea for so many days, the fish catch is so good, and there is at least five to six thousand in cash on the boat.”

"Now what?"

The leader thought for a while: "Forget it, someone knows us. Even if we control all the people on that boat, we can't escape if the other two boats escape."

A shivering young man complained: "Damn it, I told you not to mess with the fleet, but you didn't believe it and made us all wet. It's really freezing now."

“Who knows, we came in the dark and were discovered by them right away. It’s such a dark night and I can’t see the female ghost clearly. How did they discover us without turning on the lights?”

 “The devil knows.”

“Forget it, we can’t handle it, let’s evacuate first.” The man named Brother Pig was too lazy to pretend and started the diesel engine.

Seeing their sampan start up, the people on the fishing boat became nervous instantly. Suddenly, five or six gun barrels were pointed at them.

The young man named Brother Pig was so frightened that his scalp was numb. What was going on with these ships?

There are so many guns. Fortunately, we didn’t force them onto the ship just now, otherwise we might not be able to defeat them.

Brother Zhu smiled and said: "Oh, it turns out something blocked the oil pipe. Our ship has been repaired, so you don't need to save it."

All the young people who were cold and sweaty were concentrated on the stern, letting the ship's head tilted, and even with it. The young man who was about to die just now also came over.

 “What’s going on?”

Chen Liang looked confused and shouted: "Brother Zhu, it is very dangerous at night. You are all wet. You will get sick if you drive so fast."

 Brother Zhu gritted his teeth and looked at Chen Liang, and cursed in a low voice:

"How come this idiot knows me? Don't let me see you in the county. I will definitely throw you into the pit."

 The old fishermen on the boat all had gloomy faces. There was definitely something wrong with these young people.

Seeing them sailing away, the boat boss Li Zhengfa thought for a while, picked up the walkie-talkie and said:

“Duoyu, can your fishing boat communicate with the maritime radio station?”

"Can."

“I don’t think this matter can be left alone. You contact the radio station and we will follow these bastards.”

 Speaking of which, if Duoyu hadn't discovered it earlier, they might have been let into the boat by these little brats.

They are unwilling to throw away the things on the ship, so they must be hiding something.

After the sampan boat started operating at full power, they thought they could get rid of these fishing boats, but what they didn't expect was.

The white fishing boat was actually faster than their sampan boat when it sailed, and it kept following them.

“What’s wrong with you is that if you don’t save us, why are you still following us? Do you want to rob us?”

Li Duoyu shouted with a loudspeaker: "No, we have just contacted the Maritime Affairs Department. I have to follow you, otherwise I will be in trouble if the Fishery Administration comes to see me."

“Damn Ganni, leave quickly, I don’t need you anymore.”

 “The wind is too strong and I can’t hear clearly.”

“You drive slowly, it’s easy to hit the rocks at night. The fishery administration’s boat will be here soon, and they will take you home when the time comes.”

 “I’m sorry for you.” (End of chapter)
