Rebirth 84, starting from fish farming

Chapter 0078

The matter of selling grains has been a hot topic for some time after New Year's Day.

If it doesn't sell, don't sell it. Many people have given up on this unrealistic idea.

Instead, focus on the upcoming Spring Festival.

It’s the New Year, so why don’t you get some meat and make dumplings?

Those who can get some money still want to go to the sales department to buy a couple of clothes. Those who can't get cash just want to buy some fish and meat on credit somewhere to sweeten their meal.

In the past few days, several waves of people have come to Lu's house, begging to buy some fish for them to celebrate the New Year.

Lao Lu and Mother Lu couldn't bear it, so they discussed with their son whether to sell them some fish.

In fact, it is better to say that it is selling fish than giving it.

Now that they don’t have money to celebrate the New Year, how can they give you fish money?!

"Mom and Dad, please think about it. Don't even think about collecting money for the fish you give them."

"Then what's the deal? We live in a separate apartment, and if someone asks us for help, we have to help?"

Old Lu Ben is a good old man, and he can't get rid of this reputation at all.

"Son, when the time comes they will give it to them if they can, and forget it if they can't. Our life is easy, and others are jealous of us. If everyone hates our family, how can we live like this?"

"That's right. Then give it to them, but it won't be until the fishing team arrives in two days."

"Okay, I'll ask them to come back in two days."

Seeing that their son agreed, Lao Lu and Mother Lu felt much more open-minded.

If someone comes again, the Lu family will tell them that the winter hunting will be at the end of the month and ask them to come back then.

These families who are in difficulty are waiting eagerly.

On January 29th, two large cars arrived early in the morning and drove slowly to Lu Changhua's reservoir duty room.

Hearing the roar of the car, Lu Changhua and Hu Dagui came out to greet them.

Zhang Fan jumped out of the cab.

"Haha, Xiao Lu, we two brothers meet again."

"Welcome Brother Zhang."

In the back compartment and in the driver's cab, more than a dozen people got out one after another.

"Come on, come inside and get warm."

Lu Changhua and Hu Dagui let these people into the duty room.

Lao Lu also came here early today, and starting from today, he will start the cooking here.

He came here first to take out the pot.

There are pots and stoves in the duty room, but the utilization rate is not high.

There were so many people fishing this winter that it was inconvenient to go back and forth to Lu's house, so I simply cooked in the reservoir duty room, which was more convenient and trouble-free.

As soon as these people came in, they gathered around the stove to warm themselves, and some even took off their coats.

If you have frozen feet, take off your shoes and bake them directly.

Oops, forget about that smell.

Lu Changhua and Hu Dagui took out their cigarettes and spread them around.

Soon the room was filled with smoke.

"Brother Zhang, I thought you wouldn't arrive until tomorrow."

"Come early and check in early. There are still several shops waiting. It's busy."

Zhang Fan held a cigarette in his mouth and lit a fire and said.

At this moment, the driver opened the door and came in.

"Can you just go down right away?"

"Okay, no problem, I was able to get off the bus last month."

Zhang Fan took a few deep breaths, and his mouth and nostrils seemed to be on fire, breathing out green smoke.

"Let's go down and take a look first."

He got up and left.

"I'll be with you."

Lu Changhua followed closely and went out.

Three leaders of the fishing team followed.

Lu Changhua took them to the ice and explained the situation of the reservoir.

The three people began to measure and calculate on the ice, and then drew symbols on the snow.

This busy work lasted several hours.

"Tell them to come out and get to work."

Zhang Fan returned to the duty room, and after a while, the people from the fishing team came out.

Boom boom boom~~~

The car roared slowly as it drove down the dam and stopped next to a head.

Those from the fishing team jumped on the car and unloaded various tools and nets from the car.

Someone cleared the snow at the drawn symbol and used ice to cut out a small hole.

Someone came with a machine.

Lu Changhua stood on the edge and watched the excitement.

This is an ice drill modified from a chain saw and can be operated by two people at the same time.

First put the ice drill down, then pull the starting rope, and the machine will start suddenly.

The drill bit below slowly rotates.

The two men lifted the ice drill from the left to the right, aimed the drill at the small ice pit dug through the ice, and pressed down at the same time.

The engine made a dull groan and was about to extinguish the fire.

One of them stepped on the gas.

The engine is going crazy, roaring loudly and with high morale!

The drill bit whirled and ice chips flew.

The further down you go, the deeper the engine becomes and becomes weaker.

The two men then pulled out the ice drill and drilled another hole in the ice next to it.

Within ten minutes, the ice cave was turned into a hornet's nest.

The two of them carried the ice auger to the next ice cave.

Someone used an ice piercer to dig out the dilapidated ice cave, and soon expanded the hole to the ideal depth.

Pfft~~~

Hua Hua Hua~~~

The ice cave was dug.

crackle crackle~~

Several big fish jumped out of the ice cave.

"Haha, there is fish for lunch."

Hu Dagui grinned widely and laughed.

The people in the fishing team were also very happy.

"Uncle, let's eat fish for lunch."

Hu Dagui ran to the duty room holding two big frozen carps.

Lu Changhua also carried two and followed behind.

The two made two trips and carried eight fish back before Lao Lu said enough was enough.

There are fish in the ice cave, and the fishing team is full of energy.

This shows that the density of fish in the reservoir is very high and there is a lack of oxygen below.

Xiong Bao is now running wildly on the ice with Mo Bao and Ta Xue.

The two little guys have been at Lu's house for more than a month, and they have grown up a lot.

The two black meat balls were rolling on the snow, chasing Brother Xiong Bao.

Xiong Bao, who was running like crazy in front, was probably tired, so he just lay down.

The two gadgets finally caught up, whimpering and circling around Bao Xiong, but they didn't dare to bite.

The ice rink has been closed.

But it can't stop the children's enthusiasm for watching the fun.

Dozens of children, big and small, stood on the dam, just staring at the busy work on the ice.

Every time a fish jumped out of the ice cave, they cheered, as if the fish had something to do with them.

Their cheers would always arouse the alertness of the two fat black men, who would make a few childish barking sounds in the direction of the dam.

Now they are fulfilling their duties.

But Bao Xiong was not surprised and nestled in the snow. When the two little guys stopped shouting, he jumped forward and backward, causing them to follow suit.

Mother Lu and Aunt Hu also came to the duty room to help.

Lu Changhua and Hu Dagui watched the excitement for a while and then ran back to the duty room.

The aroma of fried green onions filled the room, and both of them sniffed hard.

"Bring me some firewood."

"okay."

They ran to grab some more wood, split it with an ax in the yard, and carried it to the stove.

More firewood was added to the stove, spring water was fetched, and he sat on the stove and burned it.

In one morning, more than a dozen ice caves were dug.

The fish that jumped out of the ice cave had long since frozen solid in the snow.

They all came back for dinner, and Lu Changhua and Hu Dagui carried woven bags to pick up fish.

They put the fish into the bag, sewed it open with a large horse needle, and stacked it on the ice.

This also holds more than ten bags.

The children on the dam saw no excitement, so they walked home in small groups and reported back that the Lu family was fishing.

The afternoon's work is still digging holes in the ice.

By the time the sun went down, we had only shot a dozen or so.

Lu Changhua and Hu Dagui's job became to collect fish. Seeing that it was impossible to launch the net today, they carried the packed fish back to the duty room and stacked them under the window sill.

Nearly forty bags of fish were piled into a low wall.

After dinner, Lao Lu packed up the pots and stoves, and then took Mother Lu and Aunt Hu back together.

Fortunately, the fire pit in the duty room is not small, and it can barely accommodate a dozen people, but it is not very warm.

In order to make room for them, both Lu Changhua and Hu Dagui had to go home.

As a precaution, the driver drove the car up and parked it in the courtyard of the duty room.

The yard of the duty room looked quite big, but when two cars squeezed in, it immediately became overcrowded.

Lu Changhua explained clearly the location of the spring and the location of the firewood, and then he and Hu Dagui returned home.

The next day, Lao Lu and Mother Lu got up early and steamed seven or eight pots of steamed buns.

I cooked another big pot of vegetables.

We carried them to the reservoir together.

These people are also people who travel outside all year round and endure hardships.

Zhang Fan was a little overwhelmed.

After all, he is from the business department.

The leader was worried and worried that something might go wrong, so he asked him to follow me.

Normally he wouldn't do this kind of work.

After the meal, the fishing team, led by the leader, began to lower the net.

He put a long wooden stick as thick as his thumb on the head and tied a rope on the tail, put the stick into the ice hole, adjusted the direction, and pointed to the next ice hole.

In the next ice cave, someone also used tools to search for wooden sticks in the water. After finding them, they took the wooden sticks out of the ice cave.

They pulled the rope behind the stick.

This rope is very long.

In this way, sticks were threaded through the ice holes one by one, and the rope was pulled out of the ice holes. Short wooden sticks were used to rest on the ice, so that a section of the rope was exposed to the water.

After passing through a dozen ice holes, tie the tail end of the rope to the rigging of the seine net.

Start pulling from the ice hole closest to the net, and gradually pull the net along the direction of each ice hole until it reaches the designated position.

There are more than thirty ice caves, basically covering the ice surface.

The net was down until about three o'clock in the afternoon.

The two cars are connected to each other, and the car at the back has a winch.

Directly connected to the rope of the seine.

The ice hole where the net finally comes out is huge.

It's more than three meters in diameter.

There were hundreds of adults and children who came to watch in the afternoon, standing on the dam to watch the excitement.

Among them were many people who wanted to buy fish.

"Raise the net."

Turn your head and shout loudly.

The winch started to stir slowly.

The rope, which was as thick as two or three thumbs, was pulled straight, becoming heavier and heavier as it was pulled.
