I Had a Home In 1982

   Chapter 286 285. Do it yourself, be well clothed (Happy Holidays)

   After smoking, the old men stood on the sides of the cabin one after another, and looked at the winch with nervous anticipation:

   Can this machine really pull up the fishing net by itself?

   Wang Xianghong in the cockpit solemnly pressed the button to close the net, while Wang Yi watched helplessly:

   He seems to think that the button in his hand is the button to open the nuclear silo...

   As the machine was powered on, the roar of the engine suddenly increased, and the huge hull trembled.

   The winch turns and the noose is retracted.

  The boom of the crane automatically stretched out, the noose was coiled into the winch little by little, and the fishing net began to surface.

   Numerous jellyfish also emerged from the water.

  The old men took off their straw hats and cheered. Wang Xianghong peered out of the cabin window and looked back, with an excited smile on the dark old face.

   For the first time in this life, Tianya Dao started an automated operation by itself.

   Specifically, this is semi-automatic. After all, it needs people to determine the location of the jellyfish and fishermen to cast their own nets.

  The old men also felt relieved. They talked about semi-automatic production, and their voices were loud and passionate:

   "My dear, how fast are you talking about the development of the times? Our own production team has motorized fishing boats. How dare you think about it before?"

"I dare to think that in 1953, we were assigned to Wengzhou from southern Jiangsu. At that time, the leaders of the prefectural party committee and the commissioner of the administrative department told the common people that we would not have to go out to sea with sailboats and manually cast nets to collect nets in a few years, and the state would enter the country. The age of mechanization."

"I don't remember this. In 1953, I was only 30 years old. At that time, all sailboats went out to sea. The leaders organized the fishing competition. It was also sailing boats. , one boss and eight people."

"Yes, for 30 years, we have now used motorized fishing boats, haha, shotguns for cannons, that's what the saying goes, we need to walk step by step, and we need to eat every bite. In the earliest days, our fishing nets were cotton gauze nets, right? The cotton gauze mesh is replaced by the nylon mesh for the current industrial fiber mesh.”

   "Well, the cotton gauze net is really terrible. Teacher Wang has never seen it before. Every time it uses water, the fishing net has to be dipped with pig blood and tannin glue, or it will not be used."

"It's better if he doesn't see it, that thing, hey! Mr. Wang, you don't know, before the troops came to our island, there was a big stove on the top of our mountain, my motherfucker, that thing smells really bad. It's amazing, it can only be done if the wind on the top of the mountain blows it away..."

  The old people recalled bitter thoughts and sweet thoughts. At this time, the fishing nets that were reunited into a large group were hoisted and hoisted to the top of the cabin.

   Wang shouted to the red probe: "Old and young men, let the net go!"

  The old people tightened their belts and put on thick and thick old rubber gloves. Two people went to find the opening of the fishing net from both ends. When the net was pulled open, many jellyfish fell down.

   smashed on the board and made a crackling sound, splashing a lot of seawater and even debris.

   One net has to be packed up quickly.

  Wang Xianghong shut down the ship's engine and came up to help. Wang Yi said to him, "Secretary, you can't just shut down the engine, it's dangerous."

   "This saves fuel." Wang Xianghong said nonchalantly.

  He took out the big buckets one by one, and the old men picked up the big jellyfish and threw them into the buckets.

   Wang Xianghong led Wang Yi to work and explained to him:

   "I'm very lucky this time, the most is the sand jellyfish, and the sand jellyfish is very good."

   "Qindao people also call sand jellyfish sand jellyfish, and there are many sand jellyfish there."

  Sand jellyfish are more beautiful. When you hold them up, you can see that their umbrellas are hemispherical.

  Wang Xianghong opened the jellyfish canopy to show him: "This thing is called the middle layer, it is thick and hard, you can touch it casually."

   "This is the outer umbrella surface, there are some bulging things on it, and these things on the side of the umbrella are called edge flaps."

"Inside is the umbrella handle. Well, the root of the umbrella handle is thick and short, and it is dangerous to go further in. It is full of tentacles. If it is accidentally torn by it, it will be poisoned, so the umbrella handle is also called the girl's leg. Don't mess around here."

  Wang Zhenji raised his head and said, "You have to tell Teacher Wang how to deal with poisoning."

Wang Yi said: "I know this, I have learned from books, first wipe off the venom and tentacles on the skin with a clean towel, then rinse the injured area with white vinegar, and then apply an alkaline antidote, yes Bar?"

  Wang Zhenji and Wang Xianghong looked at each other.

   Then the old man laughed again: "Mr. Wang is too civilized, this is not work, this is class."

  Wang Xianghong said: "It's not that particular, it's right to wipe off the venom tentacles with a handkerchief, and then quickly rinse with sea water, not fresh water, fresh water will make the poison worse."

   "We don't have any antidote, but an alkaline potion is necessary. There is baking soda in the cockpit. Just wash it with baking soda."

  Because there are still a lot of jellyfish floating on the sea, the big guy works very efficiently. He sorted the jellyfish into a large plastic bucket, filled one, and immediately put it on the shade net for storage.

  In addition to the sand jellyfish, other jellyfish were harvested. Wang Xianghong gave Wang Yi a patient explanation: "This jellyfish is fine, this is the macular jellyfish, which is the most jellyfish species here."

   "Xia jellyfish and Haiyue jellyfish, these two can also be eaten. Put them away. The Xia jellyfish is also very big. Like the sand jellyfish, it can sting people. You have to be careful when you encounter it."

  Wang Xiangmin said to Wang Yi: "Every year when we catch jellyfish, a few people in our team must be stung. Just wait and see. You are a doctor. If you go back today, there will be people looking for you."

  The jellyfish was picked up first, and then Wang Xianghong found some small jellyfish from the remaining jellyfish pile and showed it to Wang Yi:

   "It's called a small club, and it's called a stick-shaped jellyfish in the book? We have quite a few here. It is said that there are more seas in Canton. How about it? It looks good, right?"

  The outer umbrella of the stick-shaped jellyfish is very smooth, the color is milky white and slightly yellow, very thin, and it looks crystal clear in the sunlight.

   Wang Yi asked: "Is this jellyfish poisonous? Can it be raised? It's really pretty."

   Wang Xianghong said: "If you want to raise it, then raise the silver coin jellyfish and what else, the luminous jellyfish? Anyway, there is a jellyfish that emits luminous light, and that is called good-looking."

   This wave of jellyfish is almost finished, and some of the smaller ones will be thrown back into the sea.

  Someone took out a big broom to sweep, but Wang Zhenji stopped him and said, "Don't let it go, anyway, they are born in spring and die in winter, and if you sweep them down, they will also die and melt into the sea."

   "The little one picked it up and fed it to the chickens. Now we have a lot of chickens in our team. This thing can feed the chickens."

Wang Xianghong nodded and said: "The jellyfish look very big, but their lifespan is very short, not more than a year. Just like Uncle Ji said, they live in spring and die in winter. Once they die, they will melt into seawater and become seawater. "

   "Just like knowing, you can live a season." The other old man laughed.

   This Wang Yi is clear.

  Some species in the sea grow very fast, such as macroalgae that can grow several meters high a day, and jellyfish.

   Jellyfish is a very large species. Most of them are annual and mainly plankton. The three elements of sufficient sunlight, the surge of plankton in the sea, and the rise of water temperature have a great influence on their growth rate.

   After entering June, the temperature of the sea water increases, and some jellyfish species will grow rapidly in just 20 days, and their weight can increase dozens of times.

   So you can catch jellyfish from June, but at that time, jellyfish grow fast and rarely appear on the sea surface, most of them are hidden underwater.

  The value of jellyfish is small and poisonous, so fishermen are not willing to catch them. Except for the jellyfish fishing flood season, they will not deliberately fish for jellyfish.

   In this case, even if the jellyfish can be caught in June, fishermen in different sea areas will still wait until the jellyfish float to the sea in July and August before starting fishing.

  The outer islands call the fishing of jellyfish jellyfish. As the fishing nets were cast down, Wang Xianghong explained to Wang Yi the past of jellyfish:

"The earliest meeting was in four or five years, right? The conditions were very poor, sailboats were rare, and it was difficult for us fishermen to eat, so we could only drive a small boat to catch jellyfish. When fishing for jellyfish, you use a net."

   Hearing this, Wang Zhenji picked up a net tied to a long stick from outside and showed it to him.

   Wang Xianghong nodded: "Yes, this is called Liaowang."

   "At that time, there were two people in a boat, one was shaking the oars and the other was holding the net. The net was classified into long and short."

   "You Jiye's hand is a short one. The long bamboo pole is four or five meters long. Once a net of jellyfish is picked up, it can't be lifted with the strength of a human arm."

"So how do you do it? Set up a stand in the middle of the boat, and the long bamboo poles pass through the loops on the stand. When picking up jellyfish, someone holds a stick in the middle of the boat and looks at the sea. Go against the current, because the jellyfish come with the waves and the undercurrent, they don't exert themselves, they just follow the current."

   "Everyone in our fishing family knows that jellyfish have a regular pattern of movement. They float for a while and then sink, so now they're all floating on the sea, so we have to get off the net quickly..."

"It is said that jellyfish rely on shrimp for eyes, but the shrimp is actually eating the jellyfish's internal organs. This shrimp is very cautious and smart, and the jellyfish is clumsy when you look at the bear, and then the shrimp will run away when it sees people, and the jellyfish will not look at people. But they can watch the shrimp, and they sink when they see the shrimp escape." The old people gave Wang Yi lessons one after another.

   "This jellyfish has a lot of buoyancy. They sink under the water and then float up after a while, so you have to seize the opportunity when picking up the jellyfish."

"I used to flirt with the jellyfish together with the fifth one, and the two of us worked together best. The fifth one shook the oars and I came to flirt without talking. I found that there was a jellyfish with a finger, and the fifth one could immediately adjust the direction and shake the scull quickly. In the past, I put the pole out and turned the jellyfish up in one turn, then dragged it back, dragged it back, and then turned the net to pour out the jellyfish, and the old fifth sprinkled a handful of alum, so that the jellyfish could not be removed. ."

   "Yes, at that time, when I went out to catch 500 to 600 catties of jellyfish at one time, it was really tiring, but we fishermen are not afraid of being tired!"

   Wang Xianghong's words aroused the interest of the old people, and they started talking about the past.

   So he can't teach Wang Yi a lesson.

   When the old men are less interested in talking, it's time to put away the fishing nets again.

   After this wave of jellyfish was caught, they roughly estimated that there would be two or three thousand kilograms in receipt. This weight was nothing to the power of Tianya-2, so they continued to wander the sea and continue to look for jellyfish.

  Tianya-2 is not only looking for jellyfish but also other fishing boats.

  When they hit the sailboat, they leaned over to receive the goods.

  Other fishing boats do not use such laborious casting nets for fishing. They go to the fishing nets that were previously laid out at sea, and then collect the nets to directly collect the jellyfish caught by the nets.

   Fishing for jellyfish is hard work, which consumes a lot of physical and energy. If you are not careful, you will be stung by jellyfish, so once a jellyfish comes out of the water, you have to concentrate on your work.

  Wang Yi saw the process of closing the net once. As the old men said before, the jellyfish seemed to accompany the shrimp. As they closed the net, many prawns jumped out of the water.

  Shrimp is the favorite of many seabirds, and seagulls are very smart seabirds. They find that they can eat shrimps with the fishing boats, so they chase the fishing boats and fly after the fishing boats. When the fishing boats catch the nets and jump out of the water, they will peck them.

   This is not possible. Seabirds are rectal like chickens and ducks. They can’t help but pull the cakes when they fly. The quality of jellyfish contaminated by bird droppings will deteriorate, so once the fishermen close their nets, they will throw small lit cannonballs into the air.

  The cannonball banged, and the frightened seabirds flew away indiscriminately, and the fishermen seized the opportunity to quickly put away the jellyfish in the net.

  Tianya No. 2 received the goods on tour, and when the plastic buckets on the ship were full, they had to embark on the return journey.

  The scientific name of jellyfish is jellyfish, and the name 'jellyfish' shows how much water this aquatic organism contains.

  The weather is hot now, so the jellyfish made from this water is not released, and the processing must be followed immediately after fishing, otherwise, the jellyfish will be happy after a long time.

   Jellyfish fishing is hard work, and jellyfish processing is not easy.

   Now the light laborers and weak laborers are concentrated on the wharf. When Tianya No. 2 docked, a strong woman went up to help lift the plastic bucket.

  The buckets were full of jellyfish, each one and a half meters high, so that the buckets were so heavy that the four women could barely lift them.

   Greatly confused, he was able to carry the buckets to the wharf by himself. Once the jellyfish were transported to the wharf, the women and the elderly would rush to work to clean up.

   In short, jellyfish is divided into jellyfish head and jellyfish skin. The two have different tastes and different prices, so they need to be separated.

   In addition, jellyfish have tentacles or long whiskers, which secrete toxins and cannot be eaten, so the buckets were put on the dock and sent to the jellyfish pond, and the first step was to cut off the tentacles for them.

  Remove the jellyfish tentacles and cut off the jellyfish claws. This thing should be preserved well. The sting head in the restaurant dishes 'old vinegar sting head' or 'jellyfish head mixed with cucumber' is actually jellyfish claws, not real jellyfish heads.

  The part between the jellyfish umbrella cover and the jellyfish claws is the jellyfish head, and it is also the second most valuable thing on the jellyfish body.

   Then there is the jellyfish coat, that is, the jellyfish umbrella is covered with a layer of gray-black skin. This thing is also valuable, the value is higher than the jellyfish head, and it is quite expensive.

   The process of peeling off the jellyfish coat is called stripping. It needs to be removed with a bamboo pole. It is a craftsmanship that tests skills.

  Wang Yi helped to pour the buckets of jellyfish into the jellyfish pond, and dozens of people started to work on the assembly line, each performing their own duties.

  The empty buckets were carried back to the boat, and they had to continue to go out to sea to find jellyfish groups or receive goods.

  There are no jellyfish on the boat, the old men hurry up and start smoking, chatting happily while smoking:

   "This year's jellyfish fishing season is very hard, and it was 10,000 kilograms just now, right?"

   "Almost, not ten thousand catties but eight thousand catties, this iron guy is strong, and he went back with a bang."

   "It's the same, the iron guy is so powerful that he needs to eat diesel, and this time he will have to pay a lot of money for diesel alone."

   "You don't have good eyesight, you can only reap the benefits if you invest. This diesel is an investment. You can earn 100 yuan by burning ten yuan of diesel oil!"

   After another trip at sea, it was half past ten when we got back to the pier. The big guy dragged his tired body off the boat.

  It's time to take a break.

  The water content of jellyfish is too high, so it must be sent to the jellyfish pond as soon as possible after leaving the water surface.

   It was too hot after ten o'clock, so they had to take shelter from the blazing sun.

  After getting off the boat, the old men jumped into the water to wash their sweat. Wang Xianghong beckoned to Wang Yi and said, "I'll take you to the jellyfish pond to see the jellyfish that is famous all over the country."

  Three in the three alum jellyfish refers to three times, and alum refers to alum. In short, the treated jellyfish is soaked in brine prepared with alum, salt and water, and it needs to be soaked three times in total.

   The proportion of brine ingredients in these three brine bubbles is different, and the soaking time is also different. The first alum needs only one day, the second alum needs a week, and the third alum needs a month.

  Wang Yi washed his face hastily and asked, "I'm going to see it now? The alumization started today? The jellyfish just came back."

  Wang Xianghong said: "Today, you have to deal with it. Come and see me. I will tell you about it. You must know this. You must always stand among the masses and understand the working methods of the masses."

  The location of the jellyfish pond is the same as his home. It is at the foot of the mountain. There are several connected seaweed houses, and inside is a pond made of bricks and cement.

   There was a strong fishy smell inside, and there were plastic buckets placed under the corners of the wall. Wang Yi leaned over to take a look. There were jellyfish coats, jellyfish heads, and jellyfish claws inside.

  After the jellyfish was treated, the small things were stored in buckets, and the umbrella of the jellyfish body was covered in the jellyfish pond, filling up several jellyfish ponds.

   Now some women are walking inside wearing one-piece leather jackets, stirring the jellyfish with something while walking.

  Wang Yi asked, "Secretary, what are you doing?"

   "Remove the membrane," Wang Xianghong reached in and grabbed a jellyfish to show him, "This sting has a layer of membrane on it, if you touch it, it's this slippery thing."

   "The first alum should be removed before. Today, it has to be soaked in water for a whole day, so that it will soften. During this period, someone has to keep stirring it to make it soften faster."

   Xiaocui in the pond said: "Secretary of the Party, I heard people say that the processing plants in the county town no longer need people to stir the jellyfish when softening the jellyfish, and instead use machines to stir."

   "That's comfortable, the machine is a good thing." Another said.

   Wang Xianghong said solemnly, "Don't feel uncomfortable just stirring a jellyfish pond if you don't know your happiness in the midst of happiness?"

   "You were asked to work outside on weekdays, but you said it was hot and uncomfortable. Now you can't get the sun or the wind and rain here, so you're not feeling well? Why are you comfortable? Lying in bed every day is comfortable?"

   When everyone saw him getting angry, they hurriedly lowered their heads and went to work.

   Xiaocui stuck out her tongue and quickly moved to the corner.

Wang Xianghong did not let them go, and said, "You are eating what's in the bowl and watching the pot. You don't have enough people to swallow an elephant! If you just say that the machine is good, then I ask you, if the factory and the team use it. The machine doesn't need a human, what does the human do?"

   "People rest." Chunhong said.

  Wang Xianghong said: "Take a break? Is there any value in taking a break? People's value comes from labor, who can get something for nothing? Capitalists can get something for nothing, because they can deprive the masses of the people!"

  Wang Yi smiled and said with thin mud: "Secretary, you are serious, this is on the line, our members just want to rest."

  Wang Xianghong said: "I'm not on the top line. I see that after the communal and team enterprises make money, many people have lost their minds and lost the magic weapon of hard work. They all think about getting something for nothing, and they all believe in hedonism!"

  Wang Yi quickly changed the subject: "Secretary, you just talked about removing the film, what about after removing the film?"

  Wang Xianghong said: "After removing the membrane, use clean water to wash the jellyfish again, and then add salt and alum. After this process is completed, it is regarded as the first alum."

  It is no surprise that the first batch of jellyfish can be completed today. Wang Xianghong said that he will be called over when the second alum is carried out, and he will have to give him on-site teaching.

  Tou Fan's teaching was over, he led Wang Yi out, and then asked, "Mr. Wang, how are you feeling now?"

  Wang Yi subconsciously said, "How do you feel?"

   Wang Xianghong asked, "Are you tired?"

  Wang Yi said: "It's alright, not too tired. I am a young man after all, and my physical strength recovers quickly."

   Wang nodded to Hong and said, "Okay, since I'm going to get two rubber suits, let's also go to the jellyfish pond to remove the membrane."

  Wang Yi was stunned.

   Actually, he was very tired.

   It's just that the young people who come and go are good at face, so he said that he still has physical strength...

  Wang Xianghong was very motivated, so he immediately found two rubber suits, he wore one and gave Wang Yi the other.

  The two put on rubber suits and went down with the stirring rod.

  The women are speechless now.

   The two leaders of the production team have all left the field to work, so what else can I complain about?

  Wang Yi mixed from 10:30 to almost 12:00.

   When he came out of the pool, he felt like he was going to be useless.

  I am so tired today!

   Wang Xianghong was also out of breath and said, "No, it's not good if you don't accept the old man. Alas, after all, I'm getting old, so I just came out and stirred for an hour or more. I feel out of breath."

"Teacher Wang, it's up to you. In the first half of the morning, I just sailed the boat, and you had to cast a net and clean up the jellyfish. You worked much more than I did. As a result, you did the same job as me, and you can still do it. Stay, you can do it, you can do it!"

  Wang Yi smiled bitterly and said, "I can't do it anymore, I can't do it anymore. I'm quitting my job at noon today. I have to take a nap."

   In fact, he said from the bottom of his heart that he wanted to pretend to be a force and show Wang Xianghong and the members his strong and outstanding physique.

  But Wang Xianghong is too sincere, and he is afraid that he will be tricked by pretending to be forced--what if Wang Xianghong asks him to continue to come over at noon to film?

   He conceded defeat, and Wang Xianghong laughed: "Okay, let's take a good rest at noon today, let's go to dinner first, I told the colander, he will serve cold noodles today."

   "I told you Mr. Wang, it's delicious to mix noodles with jellyfish, it's delicious!"

   Liu Hongmei, who got off work together, said with a smile, "Isn't the old saying of our fishing family true? Jellyfish clothes, sea-bottom chicken, and seafood are incomparably delicious. This jellyfish clothes mixed with noodles is definitely delicious. It's very fresh. Let Teacher Wang try it."

  Wang Yi is very curious.

  The jellyfish clothes look like gray and black strips of cloth. They look good when they are on the jellyfish. It's really unappetizing to tear them off, and it turns out that this thing can be tied with the undersea chicken?

  The undersea chicken is a grouper. The meat of this fish is white and tender. It looks like chicken. It is the best of white meat.

   He dragged his tired legs back to the top of the mountain, and when he reached the big locust tree, he pulled the lounge chair and threw himself on it.

too tired.

   I closed my eyes and fell asleep!

  It was Wang Xianghong who woke him up and said, "Mr. Wang wake up, eat first, don't go to bed hungry, go to sleep after eating."

   "You don't have to go to the jellyfish pond to work in the afternoon. It's not so hot at three or four o'clock, so you can go straight to the boat."

   Wang Yi whimpered.

   It seems that he cannot escape the high-intensity labor during the fishing flood season. If he knew earlier, he might as well stay in the County No. 1 Middle School to engage in literary creation.

   But Calvin also suffered when he was, and he sighed secretly, Calvin suffered more than manual labor!

  The colander has prepared lunch, a large bowl of cold water noodles, and a large bowl of cut jellyfish. He only mixed it with a little rice vinegar, a little salt and coriander leaves, so that the jellyfish can be considered a vegetable.

  Wang Yi asked: "You need to process the jellyfish before you can eat it, and eat the jellyfish coat without processing it?"

  The colander wiped his hands and said with a smile: "That's definitely not possible, you have to deal with it before you can eat it, but these jellyfish clothes were not picked up by you today, they are from last year's stock, I mixed them after soaking."

   Wang Yi suddenly said, "Can this thing be stored for a long time?"

  Wang Xianghong said: "Yes, jellyfish clothes are dry goods and can be stored for a long time."

   "Also, our three-alum jellyfish skin can also be stored for a long time. After the three-alum treatment, they are not easy to rot and stink, and they will not deteriorate for several years under reasonable storage conditions."

   "Come on, Mr. Wang, eat quickly, eat early and rest early."

  Wang Yi took two chopsticks and put the jellyfish clothes into the noodle bowl.

Xiufang brought up another bowl. Inside were toon leaves and toon sprouts, which were just rubbed with salt this year. These things were rubbed into pickles. After cutting them in summer, pouring them with boiling oil is fresh and fragrant. It is suitable for mixing. Noodles too.

   But Wang Yi didn't eat toon, he had a big appetite after tasting the noodles under the jellyfish coat, this thing is delicious!

  Wang Xianghong and Liu Hongmei are not exaggerating, this thing tastes like crunchy fish skin, but the umami is much stronger than fish skin.

   He has eaten jellyfish skin and sting head. In fact, these two things are not very flavorful, so they are often used to mix cold dishes. The common people mainly eat a texture.

  The jellyfish skin and sting head have no umami taste, and the delicious taste of their whole body is concentrated on the jellyfish coat.

   This umami taste is very unique. I can't say what it tastes like, but I can only say "very fresh", which makes people have a great appetite on a hot day, and it is very refreshing to eat.

  The hand-rolled noodles are also delicious after being cooled by cold water. The special strength also has a special wheat fragrance. It is slippery in the mouth and drilled into the throat.

  Wang Yi poured down two big bowls of cold noodles like wind and clouds, and he also killed most of the jellyfish clothes in the bowls. Wang Xianghong and the colander were both laughing when he saw him.

   Colander thought it was his work to be appreciated. He wiped his hands and joked: "Mr. Wang, the leaders said that they can get enough food and clothing by themselves, and the older generation also said that the best way to grow food is to eat it by yourself. You can understand it now."

  Wang Yi nodded: "Yes, but the wheat was grown by farmers, the flour was milled by a dazed man, you made the noodles, and the jellyfish clothes were not from the batch I picked up—then why did I do it myself?"

  Wang Xianghong laughed. He picked up the pipe rod with great interest and said, "How is it? I said this jellyfish coat mixed with cold noodles is delicious, right? Isn't it very fresh?"

  Wang Yi praised: "It's really fresh, Secretary, isn't this cheap?"

   Wang Xianghong said: "It's not cheap. After this thing is processed, it will be sold as dry goods. It can be sold for thirty or forty yuan per pound."

  The price is high enough!

  Wang Yi immediately thought of 22 years, this jellyfish coat is a good thing, it should be popular in 22 years, right? He thought about finding an opportunity to go back and ask.
