Chapter 78 The whole village went out to get seafood (please follow up)

The night before New Year’s Eve.

The Dandan Island Square is brightly lit, and there are many mobile vendors from outside. They come to the island to sell New Year's goods.

There are braised meat, salted duck, and various fruits. Apples are particularly popular, and they are all sold by the bag.

There are also various snacks, such as tofu curd, candied haws, and even exotic foods such as roasted field mice, and they are sold well.

Some vendors sell various pots, pans, nylon cloths, and the prices are much cheaper than those of supply and marketing cooperatives.

The square was full of people, half of the villagers passed by, but the one who queued the most was the "tractor head" who spits out the fragrance of rice.

Here, everyone calls this "bong rice fragrant".

Pour the washed rice and white sugar together, and the crispy rice fragrance will be squeezed out from a hole in the tractor.

Then the boss folded them into about 40 centimeters long and put them in a transparent plastic bag to prevent them from getting damp.

There are many children surrounding the front of the tractor, all holding washed rice in their hands, with expectations on their faces. This thing can provide them with happiness throughout the Spring Festival.

That night, the fishermen on Dandan Island hardly slept, and they all went out in their fishing boats in the middle of the night.

Trawling of trawls, nets of sticky nets, everyone is racing against time, because on New Year’s Eve, there is simply not enough seafood to sell.

In this era when there are very few refrigerators, if you want to eat seafood for New Year’s Eve dinner, you will only buy it on the same day.

So on this day, fishermen can basically sell whatever seafood they can catch, and the prices are very good.

Except for fishing boats.

The tidal flat was also full of women and children digging in the small sea. They happened to catch the tide at the end of the month. They took flashlights and started digging in the middle of the night.

Mainly catch a kind of shellfish called blood clam.

Li Duoyu also couldn’t understand why they always eat blood clams during the Chinese New Year. When this kind of thing is opened, it is full of red blood.

Eating it is also very simple. Just boil it in a pot and eat it directly with soy sauce and chopped garlic. Some laotie don't even dip it in it and eat it raw.

Li Duoyu also asked Lao Li when he was a child, why he always served blood clams during the Chinese New Year, but Lao Li couldn't tell because he also asked his ancestors.

The ancestor didn’t understand it either. He said that this tradition had been left down since he was a child, and it could even be traced back to many dynasties.

The early morning of New Year’s Eve.

Li Duoyu also came to the dock with Chen Wenchao. They planned to catch all the sea fish temporarily raised in the fishing rafts and sell them.

Before sailing, Li Duoyu ordered a salty tofu puff, while Chen Wenchao ordered a sweet one.

After the two of them ate several pieces of fried cakes and triangular cakes, they took flashlights and headed towards the kelp field.

The sea in the early morning was as black as ink, and you couldn't even see your fingers if you stretched out your hand, but there were lights all over the sea.

As soon as Li Duoyu and the others left, a small fishing boat returned to the harbor. The fishmonger, who had been waiting for a long time, jumped on board before the boat even got close.

As a result, a fishmonger nicknamed Lao Mi shouted: "I have reserved Zhang San's family!"

“Old Mi, what are you doing? When did you make the reservation?”

"Two days ago, I already sent wine to Lao Zhang, okay?"

Then the fishmonger named Lao Mi jumped on the fishing boat. After weighing the scale, the fishmonger said cheerfully: "Sixty-one and a half pounds, twenty-four and six yuan, I'll give you twenty-five yuan."

The fishing boat owner who got the money was also happy. When he saw his child, he was waiting for him at the dock with a bag of rice before dawn.

He took out a piece of red paper on the spot, folded it in half and tore it into strips, then wrapped a dollar in it and smeared it with saliva.

“The red envelope I gave you, you can buy whatever you want.”

After the child took the red envelope, he smiled from ear to ear and immediately ran towards the tractor head with the fragrant rice.

The fishing boat owner asked his family to continue fishing. If he was lucky, he could sell another boat of fish.

This side of the kelp field.

Before Li Duoyu and Chen Wenchao arrived, a dog was already greeting them, and they could hear the dog barking in the distance.

Wait until they are in the row.

Two hundred and five kept circling around Li Duoyu, rubbing against his feet, wagging its tail and making whining sounds. Li Duoyu touched its dog’s head.

　　Pour yesterday's leftovers into its dog bowl, and 250 devoured it in an instant.

Following.

Li Duoyu put a blessing character on the dog house of Erbai5, and then put a couplet on the bamboo house of the fishing raft.

The couplet was written by Zhou Xiaoying.

“Ten thousand hectares of mist connect to the sky and the sea”

“Thousand cabins laugh and welcome the spring”

Although she is not the best at reading on the island, she is the best at calligraphy. Every year during the festival, many villagers come to her to write couplets.

After pasting the couplets.

On the east side of the sea, a white light has emerged, and Chen Wenchao is holding a fishing net to fish for the marine fish temporarily raised in the cage.

But at this moment.

Li Duoyu heard the sound of the white dolphin, as if it was in the kelp field, and thought it was entangled in the kelp rope.

I didn’t think about it, it seemed like I was chasing a school of fish. Judging from the situation, there should be a school of fish hiding in the kelp field.

The current kelp is simply the best shelter for fish. I don’t know what kind of fish it is, but it’s a large yellow croaker. I’ll make a fortune today.

After seeing the situation, Li Duoyu became excited and hurriedly shouted to the local dog who was fishing: "Stop fishing for now, come with me to catch a wave of fish first."

Chen Wenchao was stunned and said: "Where to catch him?"

Li Duoyu smiled and said: "Let Mazu guide us in the direction."

Chen Wenchao was confused.

It wasn’t until he also saw the white dolphin that he finally came to his senses: “Damn it, Brother Yu, why are you so lucky? I rarely encounter these mazu fish when I go to sea.”

Li Duoyu used the key to open the bamboo house of the fishing raft, took out the sticky net placed inside, and then placed the two boats around the kelp field.

After placing the sticky net.

Li Duoyu took a long bamboo pole to the center of the kelp field, hit the water surface directly, and blew out the fish hiding in the kelp field.

The white dolphins are also very cooperative, constantly drilling in and out of the kelp fields, driving the fish in the sea, and as the sky gets brighter and brighter.

Chen Wenchao saw a big sea fish being pushed up by a white dolphin, and excitedly shouted: "Wow~Wow~ It looks like a shark."

Li Duoyu also saw it.

It seems that this is the season for Spanish mackerel. This fish is very popular because of its big fat flesh and a big thorn in the middle.

Northern people like to use it to make dumplings.

In the south, people like to use it to make fish balls.

In addition to blood clams, fish **** are also a very important dish during the Chinese New Year, which means reunion.

The fish **** made from this kind of mackerel have a very silky taste. During the Chinese New Year, mackerel is also very popular.

After using a bamboo pole to make a circle around the kelp field.

The two of them started to collect the sticky net separately.

Looking at the fresh mackerel on the battle net, even though Li Duoyu had caught a lot of seafood, he still couldn't help but get excited.

While Chen Wenchao continued to chant his mantra.

“Damn it, the internet is busted this time.”
