Chapter 144: Teach a Man to Fish (Subscribe)

When Li Duoyu woke up again.

It was already noon.

When he woke up, the little Tutu beside him cried out, wanting his father to play with him for a while.

Li Duoyu yawned.

This sleep was so comfortable.

He picked up a tin frog and performed a very clumsy disappearing trick.

Every time the tin frog disappeared.

Little Tutu's eyes widened and his limbs froze.

When Li Duoyu conjured up the tin frog again.

Little Tutu laughed happily.

After playing with him for a while, Li Duoyu picked him up and went to the kitchen. He found that the lobster was still there. Zhou Xiaoying actually fetched some sea water and raised it.

"Why didn't you eat this lobster?"

Zhou Xiaoying said: "My mother cooked a big pot of rice at noon, so I didn't eat it."

Li Duoyu opened the door and took a look.

The courtyard was full of foam plastic floats, some of which were brand new, and it was obvious that they were bought in town.

Now the group of people were sitting around the eight-person table in their house, serving food.

Seeing so many people, Zhou Xiaoying hurriedly took the child and said, "There are too many people smoking outside, don't take the child out."

"Yeah."

Li Duo felt that this group of people was a bit too much. They were so arrogant when they asked him to do something.

Not only did they come to block the door early in the morning,

but they also asked his father and mother to make salty rice for them at noon. This was too much bullying.

This was intolerable.

An old man who had finished his meal and was smoking a dry pipe saw Li Duoyu and said, "You slept well, you finally woke up."

Li Duoyu immediately laughed and said, "Second uncle, good afternoon."

Li Duoyu looked around and found that most of them were relatives of their family.

Great uncle, second uncle, third uncle, cousin, eldest uncle, aunt, uncle, Zhuang uncle, eldest aunt, cousin, sister-in-law

In the past, when cutting trees, collecting kelp, and planting oyster seedlings, all these relatives helped.

Li Shuguang, who was eating salty rice, said: "The food at Duoyu's house is still the best, especially the pickled vegetables pickled by the second aunt for pork rib soup, which is really delicious."

After smelling the salty and sour taste.

Li Duoyu couldn't help swallowing his saliva.

Some foods are really not delicious, but they are engraved in the genes since childhood.

At a certain time, pickled vegetables were the mainstream food in Dandan Island. At that time, every household had two jars.

One was used to make fish sauce.

The other was used to pickle pickled vegetables.

And their local pickled vegetables are mustard greens, which are easier to grow.

This is a vegetable that can be grown all year round and can grow very large. Every time you want to eat it, you can cut a few mustard leaves with a knife.

You can stir-fry it directly or make it a side dish in seafood porridge. If you encounter mustard greens growing and blooming.

Everyone will pick it whole, then dry it, apply some coarse salt, and then step on it to quickly dehydrate it.

In Li Duoyu's childhood memory.

There are two kinds of vegetables that are eaten the most.

One of them is sweet potato leaves. At that time, there were many sweet potatoes planted on the island. After people got tired of eating sweet potatoes, they started eating sweet potato leaves.

And the sweet potato leaves used to grow sweet potatoes are really not delicious. Now I think it's more like eating pig food.

The other is pickled vegetables.

This dish is quite versatile.

At that time, there were few seasonings, so people spread pickled vegetables on the yellow croaker and steamed them together.

But that dish was not very delicious for Li Duoyu. What he remembered most was the pickled vegetable and pork ribs soup.

When he was a child, he had very few opportunities to eat pork, only once or twice a year.

Once the meat was distributed.

A Niang often couldn't bear to eat it. In order to maximize the utilization of pork, A Niang used the method of boiling soup.

Boil the soup with pickled vegetables and pork ribs. Every time he ate it, Li Duoyu would eat the pickled vegetables first.

Drink some soup.

Don't eat the meat first. After boiling a few meals, wait until the pork ribs soup is completely tasteless, then you can bear to eat the meat.

Every time you smell this smell.

Li Duoyu couldn't help drooling and his appetite increased greatly.

Even in his previous life, after returning from the island country, every time his family cooked this dish, he couldn't help eating one or two more bowls of white rice.

Unfortunately, the pickles were industrialized later, and it is difficult to find the authentic ones like the original ones.

Remember when I was a child.

Every time pickled pickles.

My mother would ask the brothers to wash their feet, and then let them step on the mustard greens smeared with coarse salt barefoot. It is said that the pickles stepped on barefoot taste the best.

Li Duoyu ate two bowls of salty rice.

After drinking a large bowl of broth.

He came to the beach of Dandan Island with everyone. He first asked Chen Wenchao to transport the remaining bamboo to the beach.

He began to teach everyone how to make a net cage for catching small tubes.

This thing looks simple, but there are many small tricks. It is not an easy task to tie a net cage firmly.

It requires certain steps and specifications. If it is tied casually, before the small tubes are caught, the net cage will disintegrate directly after being hit by a few more waves.

Li Duoyu taught very attentively.

And these fishermen also learned very attentively.

Almost two hours later, Li Duoyu tied a net cage.

And everyone followed his method and tied net cages one after another.

The imagination was beautiful, but the result was shocking, especially after seeing the net cage made by his cousin Li Shuguang.

Li Duoyu's mouth twitched.

When he was teaching, it was obviously a square cage, but in the end, it was tied into a diamond shape. This kind of cage structure was quite dangerous.

Li Duoyu couldn't stand it anymore, so he had to tie him up again.

Next, I checked the cages where everyone used to catch small tubes.

It was almost the same high tide time yesterday, but it was delayed by forty-eight minutes.

In fact, this can be used to calculate the highest tide time every day based on the lunar calendar date.

From the first to the fifteenth day of the lunar calendar:

High tide time = date * 0.8.

From the 16th to the 30th day of the lunar calendar:

High tide time = (date-15)*0.8.

Today is the 25th day of the lunar calendar. After applying the formula, it equals (25-15)*0.8.

It turns out that the highest tide time today is almost eight o'clock, and there are two high and low tides a day, each time about twelve hours and twenty minutes apart.

Therefore, the high tide time at night is: around 8:20 p.m.

But at this time.

Most fishermen don't use this method to calculate, and most of them rely on experience.

That is, rote memorization.

There is also a monthly tide timetable at the pier. As long as they know what day it is on the lunar calendar, local fishermen can immediately know the high and low tide times today.

8:10 p.m.

The tide rose to the place where Li Duoyu and the others tied the cages, and eight new cages floated.

The beach is particularly bright tonight, because half the village's lanterns have been gathered here.

There are also many people watching on the shore.

Then the third uncle who took the lead shouted: "Let's go to sea, catch the little pipe."

The villagers watching on the shore also shouted:

"Making a lot of money."

The people on the fishing boat followed and shouted:

"OK."

As the tugboat "rumbling" sounded, these cages tied together were slowly pulled away from the beach.

Because now on Dandan Island, there are not many fishermen like Li Duoyu, Li Shuguang and Wang Jinjun who own diesel engines.

Most fishermen use sampans with oars. It is not easy to pull such a big thing away from the beach by manpower.

So everyone invited Li Zhengfa’s tugboat to tow the cages used to catch small tubes to the sea first.

After the cages were launched into the sea one by one.

The fishermen also took their sampan boats out to sea and found their own cages.

Immediately afterwards.

According to the method Li Duoyu taught them, they started fishing for small tubes.

After a while.

Everyone was very excited.

"Damn it, I broke the net. This net must be at least a hundred kilograms of small pipes."

"Good luck with Ganiniang's card. My net is full of Balang fish."

"My net is not bad either."

The Zhao brothers, who were still using hand ropes to catch small pipes, were dumbfounded for a moment when they saw the new gadget, and now they finally understood.

When an old fisherman saw the Zhao brothers, he frowned and asked, "Didn't you find many fish today? Why are you still fishing with hand ropes?"

The Zhao brothers were dumbfounded.

Because they had just seen with their own eyes that with the number of small tubes caught in one net, they might have to fish for three or four hours.

Now Zhao Dahai finally understood.

The two boats of small tubes that Li Duoyu pulled in the early morning were either purchased or caught by him himself.

Zhao Dahai's head was buzzing.

Zhao Erniu frowned: "Brother, how about we also imitate them?"

The old fisherman said: "Don't do it randomly. There are skills in this. Our cages are also adjusted by Duoyu. If you want to do it, it's best to go to Duoyu. He is a very nice person." Except for the material fee, almost no other money is charged.”

Zhao Dahai gritted his teeth and frowned.

Zhao Erniu said: "Brother, Brother Yu invited us to dinner early in the morning. Let's go find him and bow our heads. Maybe Brother Yu will help us."

Seeing that his eldest brother was still hesitating, Zhao Erniu said angrily: "Don't get stuck with money, okay? The season of Xiaoguan is very short. If Lao Lu and the others make so much every time, the price will fall immediately. "

"At that time, if we just catch small pipes with ropes like this, we probably won't make more than ten yuan a night."

Zhao Dahai sighed helplessly: "Er Niu, let's bring a bottle of wine to see Brother Yu tomorrow."

"OK."

Lao Lu next to him smiled and said: "You can go buy a plastic foam float early tomorrow morning. For moso bamboo, you can buy it directly from Duoyu. It's best to buy him a pack of cigarettes. Maybe I can get it for you for free."

"Thank you, Uncle Lu."
