Chapter 1267 Go back (monthly ticket +3)
Some people were lucky to have rain boots on their feet, while some people regretted it when their rain boots were filled with water because they went into the water. They took them off after going to the beach and left their feet bare.
These Haitian melons were squirming one by one, and some crawled over their feet, with sticky mucus remaining on their insteps. It was as disgusting as you want.
However, there was no place to step on wherever I wanted to move. They were so densely packed that within a short time, they had covered the entire exposed beach.
We can only kick these squirming bugs aside and step on them, but when we step on them, there will be greasy mucus.
Ye Yaodong immediately picked up the rain boots he had kicked off and put them on. He also wore gloves on his hands. He felt psychologically comfortable and felt less disgusting.
He caught a basket full in two or three strokes.
The black mullet in the fishing net was fished back and forth, leaving only a little bit of the tail. While everyone was fishing for the black mullet, they took in the fishing net that stretched for several hundred meters little by little.
"Have you gotten used to it? If you're used to it, help fish it out. Wear gloves to make it less disgusting."
"I have goosebumps all over the floor, can I still get used to it?"
Some people shuddered, glanced at it with disgust, looked at the sea, and felt that it was no longer polluted, and the hairs that stood on end disappeared.
"Let me help. This is too much. Can I sell it for money?"
"Let me help too. I wonder if anyone wants it?"
After all, it is indeed disgusting, and I don’t know if anyone knows the stuff and dares to eat it.
You have to rely on luck and a specific location to catch this thing, but no one is breeding it now.
"I'm used to it, so it's okay? It's almost as disgusting as shipworms, but it's a little bigger. It's really about the same size as a sweet potato."
"It's fleshy when you hold it in your hand. It seems okay?"
"Oh, it's so disgusting..."
"Boss, how do you eat this?"
Others found it disgusting, but Ye Yaodong's boatman couldn't watch his own boat boss picking it up alone.
After seeing that there wasn't much in the fishing net, I left it to others to do the work, and then I rolled up my sleeves and came over to help.
One by one, they all put on their gloves to help. Of course, they had to bite the bullet and help out whatever their boss was doing.
Anyway, it won't bite and it's not dangerous. It's just a little disgusting at most, so bear with it.
Ye Yaodong said: "Take it back. If no one wants it at the dock, just clean it yourself, remove the internal organs, boil it in sea water and dry it in the sun."
These Haitian melons are spindle-shaped and gradually taper at the end, but there is no sudden and obvious shrinking of the tail. The body length can reach up to 20 centimeters. Most of the ones here are only about 10 centimeters, which is considered quite large.
You can cut it open with a knife and remove the internal organs, leaving only the outer layer of skin. Fried leeks are also particularly delicious and can be dried and stored easily.
"Is it really edible?"
He said nonchalantly: "These are all seafood. What can't be eaten in the sea? Sea centipedes have been eaten, shipworms are also maggots, and they can be eaten. What does this mean?"
"Go to the landlady tonight and cut a handful of leeks and fry them for you to try. I guarantee that your tongues will swallow the fresh ones."
"Hehe, that makes sense. Hurry up and be proactive and catch them all. There is nothing in the sea that you can't eat. You can eat grass."
Ye Yaodong nodded, "Yes, be smart. The sun has set, and it will be dark within an hour."
Everyone on their boat was catching sweet potatoes, while others were sorting out the remaining fish in the salvaged fishing nets, and dumping the goods onto the deck of the Dongsheng one by one.
He actually thinks this division of labor is good.
The Haitians he picked up were doing private work, while the others were doing serious work, but he was the one who could produce the fishing nets, and he would have to work hard to help sell the deck of mullets when he returned home.
He didn't feel guilty at all about what he picked up now, these things were all his.
"Big brother and second brother, please help me and drag my fishing net to the boat. I'll be fine soon."
Ye Yaopeng said: "Okay, after the fish is lifted, everyone can help lift the fishing net and lift this insect or something onto the boat."
Ye Yaodong also yelled at everyone to go faster.
He also had five or six people on hand picking it up, and he said it was very efficient. The free baskets were filled in a matter of seconds. He also asked his elder brother to go to the ship and get a few sacks to load them.
These things live in the soft mud bottom of the intertidal zone with a water depth of 80 meters, and a few live in the mud.
He watched a large number of them crawling up from the water, just like a large number of insects attacking the beach. They just finished picking up and kept climbing up again and again. It was endless and he didn't know how many there were.
If everyone hadn't brought all the mullet to the deck one after another, and put the fishing nets up, waiting for them, he wouldn't have been able to leave.
Others were also addicted to fishing. They all felt that since they could be eaten, it would be a pity not to finish fishing. Even after catching them for a long time, they didn’t feel sick anymore.
"It's all still coming to the beach. I don't know how much more there is. It's a pity that it's gone now..."
Ye Yaodong straightened his back and said, "Let's go, we won't be able to catch them all. I'll probably go back to the sea when it gets dark."
"Come again next time, remember the coordinates."
"It's urging me again, please hurry up, it's getting dark soon."
"Let's go, each person can stand up to a sack and get on the boat."
When they loaded the bags of Haitian melons onto the fishing boat, they were all shocked. There was no place to stay on the deck.
"Ah, Hong Tian, ​​there are so many!"
"Why so many fish?"
"There are so many fish, damn, I just loaded them basket by basket on the boat and I didn't think it was much..."
The people on the other three boats had already changed their clothes and were standing on the deck. Everyone was very excited and talking a lot.
Ye Yaodong casually threw the sack on his shoulders in and climbed up himself.
Carrying this sack, my shoulders were covered in mucus, which was so disgusting.
Others hurried up.
Everyone first clears a space for these fish and puts the sacks specifically.
There were also a lot of bamboo baskets piled in the corner, and they were also full of Haitian melons. He estimated that they weighed at least a thousand kilograms, and they were really quite a lot.
Each of these weighs at least one or two kilograms, so I really didn’t pick them up in vain.
"The whole ship is full, and we are returning home with a full load."
"I just saw a lot of fish in the fishing net. I didn't expect there were so many fish after they were all caught."
"This is a full deck, it should weigh 50,000 to 60,000 jins, right?"
"It's really not a waste of money, there are so many."
Ye Yaodong said to everyone: "While the tide is rising, let the boat leave the shore first. I will sail the boat while you collect the anchor."
"OK."
He first went to the cabin to take out his change of clothes, then went to the helm and then changed his clothes while steering the fishing boat away from the shore.
The other three boats also started to move.
They were delayed here for three hours, and it was getting dark at this time. Before they drove far, it was already completely dark.
But it doesn’t matter. The delivery is so big that it’s worth going back later.
These black mullets themselves are very cheap, but it’s their spawning season now, and every black mullet caught has a bulging belly.
Mullet roe is a good thing, and it is also the most valuable part of the mullet.
After the boatmen take a look, this batch should be sold at a good price.
When we got back to the dock, it was already past 9 pm, which was a bit late, and there were no good stalls around, which made everyone a little worried.
Ye Yaodong simply asked everyone to wait around to see if any stalls were sold out and vacant.
He first went to find two big trucks and took the hairtails to the factory first. He took the ones that could be sold and sold them first. At the same time, he also freed up the baskets to load the black mullets later.
He was also a bit lucky. As soon as he returned to the dock after selling goods from the factory, he met Captain Xu from last time.
The other party had just finished selling the goods and was settling accounts and collecting money, while the workers were still picking up the remaining bits and pieces. He walked by and saw it. He said hello in surprise, exchanged a few words, and then took over the stall in sequence.
"You still have a lot of mullets?"
"We encountered a school of fish."
"It's a bit unbelievable. Have you stopped using radar nets and switched to trawling? Now that the weather is getting colder, many people have begun to use radar nets to catch hairtails. Before, there were more trawl nets, but now there are a lot of hairtails."
"I didn't catch this with one boat, but four of them worked together. I just put them all here to sell and share them together."
Captain Xu was confused as to why they were fishing with four boats together. He wanted to ask if they had changed it to seine nets again, but Ye Yaodong asked again.
"Uncle, does anyone want Shanghai sweet potatoes on this pier?"
“Do you have Haitian sweet potatoes?”
"Yes, I happened to pass by an island when I came back. I stopped for a while and saw that the beach was densely covered with Haitian sweet potatoes. I picked them all up."
"Someone collects this. Once it appears, it will be taken away immediately. There are relatively few of these things, so it's all a matter of luck. It's not like fish, shrimps and crabs, which are all over the pier. People on the pier are fishing at sea. How can there be a professional one?
I go looking for these things to catch, but I can occasionally see them when I go to the market."
Ye Yaodong is happy!
Nothing was done in vain.
"How much does this cost per pound?"
"It's usually not less than 50 or 60 cents. It's a small item, and people who like to eat it like it very much. Just like sea sausage, the price is not low. But there are also people who specifically lower the price. It depends on whether you know the product or not."
"Great, then I'll show it out and see if you want it."
Fortunately, someone he knew knew about this and could give him some advice, otherwise he would have sold it all immediately for even 10 cents, let alone 50 or 60 cents.
There are relatively few of these things, and he really doesn’t understand the market conditions.
I originally thought of keeping it back to clean and dry it myself, but now that someone might want it, I might as well put it out and sell it to save the trouble. It's already night.
Just leave some to dry and eat it yourself.
Ye Yaodong directly called the boatman to bring out two baskets of Haitian melons.
As soon as I took it out, it immediately attracted the attention of people around me. It was really disgusting, but it could easily spread from one person to ten people.
Within 5 minutes, someone came over to inquire about the price.
And just like what Captain Xu said, the price was only 20 cents per catty, and even after half a day, the price was only increased by 5 cents. I don’t know, but maybe I thought the price was high enough, and I took advantage of it.
He directly refused to sell anyone with 60 cents, and the boatmen were all nervous and wanted to accept it for him.
When the crowd gathered at the back, a competitor appeared at the same time. When the visitor heard that it was 6 cents, he was confused. When he heard that it was more than 1,000 kilograms, he immediately wanted it all.
Ye Yaodong was so happy that he immediately asked people to carry other Haitian sweet potatoes on the boat, leaving only one basket.
At this time, someone came up to him and said, "Brother, is that Dongsheng ship yours?"
"Ah, what's wrong?"
"I am the boat that guides you during the day."
Ye Yaodong's eyes lit up, "Oh, brother, I didn't expect you to be so young and powerful, what a fate, why are you still at the dock at this point?"
"We were planning to go to sea. We happened to see someone on the Dongsheng moving cargo up and down, so we came over to take a look. What a coincidence. Thank you very much."
"You're in such a hurry. We'll arrive in the afternoon and go to sea in the evening?"
"It's time to make money. It's not a rush. It was originally delayed due to the typhoon, so it was already late."
"I came two months earlier than my brother. If you have any questions, you can contact me. My name is Ye Yaodong. By the way, I am the vice president of the Fisheries Association in Wenzhou."
"Ah? What? Are you from Wenzhou too?"
