Chapter 891 The predatory feast of seabirds (two chapters combined into one, 7400 words)(2/3)

He glanced at his dog son, then picked up the hoe and continued digging the ground, "Who would have thought of this if you haven't tried it before? Most people would dare to take risks. You are lucky."

If he can go back this year and still make a lot of money, Dongzi will have opened up a way for more people in the village to get rich, and more fishing boats will follow him next year.

Just like the Shenjiamen area, I heard that as soon as autumn comes, fishing boats from all over the place swarm there to catch shrimps.

This kid's luck is really good. He can succeed in whatever he does.

Ye Yaodong did not catch this matter and kept talking about his father. Instead, he changed the subject, "The typhoon is about to pass. Is Aguang's Harvest boat going to sea again in the past two days? Is it him or Uncle Pei who is going to go?

Don’t you want you to follow?”

"The in-laws should go there. They have been resting for more than half a month, so there is no need for me to follow them."

"Ah Guang is so happy."

"What's so cool about having just one son and not being able to protect him? It's really nonsense. We won't let him have more children now."

From now on, everyone will stop trying to survive.

"Then I'll ask Ah Cai to arrange for me to leave some more miscellaneous fish for drying in the past two days. When the time comes, I'll wait for the harvest shrimps to come back."

“Recently, because of the typhoon, I don’t know when it will rain, so I don’t dare to spend too much time in the sun.”

"There are no fishing boats out of the nearby ports and piers, and there are no fish available at Ah Cai's side. I only went to the city that day and brought back a cart of Balang fish."

"The typhoon has passed, so I just made arrangements. While I'm at home, I'll arrange for more sun exposure. Otherwise, I don't know if Ah Qing will be blinded if I'm not at home."

"Also, if those wooden barrels you ordered are delivered, remember to move them all to the corner of the workshop and pile them up. Then ask my mother to ferment there."

Fermentation can be faster if exposed directly to the sun, and the time can be shortened by more than half. Anyway, Wang Guangliang and the others will be watching day and night.

"It's okay to leave the fish sauce there to ferment. I'm just worried about rain. You can't move such a big barrel, and it's a wooden barrel, not a big tank. If you leave it outside in the wind, sun and rain for a long time, you'll worry about the barrel breaking.

Lose."

"I will buy a few more rolls of nylon bags later. When the wooden barrels arrive, I will measure and cut them. When the fish is marinated, my mother will close it up and open it to dry in the sun when the weather is good. When the sun is not strong in the evening, we will also put out the nylon bags at home.

Take it and prop it up above the head of the workshop."

In this case, if it rains suddenly during the day or night, you won't have to worry, since there will be a nylon bag to hold it up.

"That's fine first."

"Let's do this this year, keep it simple. After all, we don't know how the market will be. If all this batch is sold next year, we will build another fish sauce workshop and make it bigger."

There are rows of large wooden barrels for fermenting fish sauce on the ground, and dried fish and shrimps are drying above.

At the beginning, I could only do it as simple as possible, as easy as possible, and as easy as possible to save money.

The future is long, so let’s test the waters like this first.

I called Boss Zhou to ask about it before, but Boss Zhou just said that when the time comes, he would move a few tanks over and try it out first. No one dared to vouch for it without trying it.

Although he is quite confident, he still has to see the results before he can scale it up. Anyway, it already has a prototype.

He had calculated that with a capacity of one or two thousand kilograms, it would only produce thirty or forty barrels in a year. In bad weather, it would be impossible to go to sea.

It may not take more than a year for these barrels to be freed up for recycling.

Father Ye held a hoe in his hand, bowed his head and rolled his eyes at him, "Do you want it to be bigger? You should first sell all the things you have on hand, and stop thinking about other things and just customize the wooden ones."

The capital is quite high, so I’d better get back the capital first.”

"That's what I call it, take one step and see three steps. We have to take a longer view."

Although he doesn't know how to do business and lived a miserable life in his last life, he also knows that it's easy to make money in this day and age, and his mother's skills are also top-notch, so the probability of success is very high.

You can't go wrong if you give it a try. If you don't try, you may regret it later.

Father Ye took a hoe and waved it around, not caring about what he was talking about.

It also depends on what he has done in the past two years, and his family is rich, otherwise he and his mother would definitely not watch him spending a lot of money to get these fish sauces. There would have been a lot of objections like before, and

I won't go out of my way to help him.

"Don't go too far. Go pick all those eggplants. They're all ripe anyway, so don't leave them too old. It just frees up some space. I'll plow the ground and plant some cabbage together in the evening."

"Oh, dad, why don't you fertilize it in the evening?"

"What are you doing?"

"What don't I do? You can do these things."

"While I'm still here, I can still help you. When I get old and can't do it anymore, you'll still have to pick up the shit yourself."

There is no need to worry about this, you will have a flush toilet when you are old.

Ye Yaodong thought in his heart that it was so beautiful that when it was time to grow old, he still had to grow old.

The two typhoons that lasted for more than half a month finally passed. The previous half month had been continuous, but the last half month had been continuous rest, and the villagers were complaining.

However, during this period of rest, the villagers were not idle. They mended the nets when they needed to, dried them when they needed to be dried, and plowed the ground when they needed to do it. Anyway, there was always endless work to do.

The same goes for Ye Yaodong. Although he took a break for half a month, he felt as if he had never taken a break.

After he ordered a big boat with his brothers, the Lan brothers next door also found a few cousins ​​to partner.

In Xishan Village, which is connected to them next door, I heard that several people also went to the shipyard to have a look, and then decided to join a boat. The news has spread throughout the village recently.

It wasn't until the typhoon passed and the wave of boat buying gradually passed. Everyone was preparing to go out to sea, so there was less discussion.

On the nearby vacant land, where the houses on the mountain were to be moved, construction started again after the typhoon passed.

It means that there are no other people in the village who want to buy a house recently. Otherwise, they would probably choose to live near them as soon as possible.

The theory of Feng Shui is as mysterious as it is mysterious, so you must not disbelieve it.

Before going to sea, Ye Yaodong went to refuel the two boats in advance, and went to Mazu Temple to worship, and then went out on time with his father at night.

He also secretly took his camera with him when his wife wasn't paying attention. After so long, she must have forgotten about it.

Carry it secretly in case of emergency.

The eldest cousin and Brother Asheng have been sailing in the same boat for a while, and they are somewhat used to it. Ye Yaodong is too lazy to separate them anymore. It is better for him and his father to be in the same boat.

Habits are the scariest thing. After two people have been sailing a boat together for a long time, they will also feel that this is good. Anyway, there is no need to worry. I haven’t worked for half a month. When the end of the month, the wages will still be calculated. It will be stable.

.

After meeting at the dock, they also followed Ye Yaodong's boat in the boat.

As soon as Father Ye and Ye Yaodong got on the boat, they took turns offering incense to Mazu in the cabin.

Ye Yaodong also specially put a few tomatoes as tribute today.

"After the storm, good things happen, and everything goes well. Tomatoes are also persimmons, and good luck comes!"

The typhoon did not calm down so quickly just after it passed over the sea. There is still a little wind and waves today, but the impact is not big.

During this period of time, they had had enough sleep, and both father and son were in high spirits at night, feeling refreshed and standing on the bow of the boat to enjoy the wind together.

"Dad, I have a hunch that today's harvest will be good."

"Nonsense, everything will be better than usual after the typhoon."

"I think there will definitely be big fish."

Father Ye felt that everything he said was nonsense. Wasn't this predictable?

"Then why don't you go and sort out the fishing net? We're almost there and ready to lower the net."

"knew."

However, after two consecutive fishing trips, no sign of big fish was seen, but the catch was twice as much as before the typhoon. Both father and son were a little disappointed, as they had thought too well at first.

After Ye Yaodong poured out the goods he had dragged up, he stretched his feet and fiddled with them, and found that there was nothing unusual about them. He said regretfully: "Do you feel that the posture of worshiping Mazu is wrong today? Otherwise, I will go and worship again later."

"

"Stop talking nonsense and try fishing in another position."

"Put the net down first, then you can sail the boat and change positions. I'll go cook some noodles. It's past 8 o'clock."

It's normal for luck to come and go, and today's gains from these two networks are pretty good.

Father Ye drove the boat forward at a steady speed and worked, and the father and son also took the opportunity to have breakfast in turns.

They didn't run far, and they could still see the boat of their eldest cousin and Brother Asheng at the end of their sight, looming.

However, when they pulled up the net, they discovered that the contents of this net were extremely large. After dragging it to the deck, the father and son also discovered that it was full of herrings, a large number of herrings.

"Fuck, so many herrings! It's so damn rubbish."

There are also some fish, shrimps and crabs mixed in, but most of these only account for less than a hundred catties, and the number of herring is more than three or four times that of these fish, shrimps and crabs.

A large bag full of fish was untied and scattered on the deck, attracting several nearby seabirds to swoop down.

Ye's father hurriedly waved away, but Ye Yaodong looked at the sea after saying this.

"It's a pity that there are so many fish, we can only use them to feed chickens, ducks and pigs."

It's a good thing to encounter a school of fish, but this herring is too rubbish, worse than anchovies, anchovies, sardines and other small miscellaneous fish.

Herring is notoriously smelly!
