This time, the two of them waited for a long time but did not serve any fish.
Just as Chen Yong was about to dive into the nest again, the fishing line was stretched again. Haha, another fish.
Seeing this, Yan Bugui's mental state collapsed.
He already had three in a row. If he couldn't do it later, should he try switching positions with him?
But would Chen Yong agree?
Yan Bugui wasn't confident at all. After all, this was a good spot with many fish. It was a treasure to everyone. If he were in his shoes, he wouldn't agree either. However, he wouldn't be satisfied if he didn't try.
Just as he was struggling for a few minutes, Chen Yong had already lifted the fish out of the water.
This time, it was a big deal. Although there was a fish in the name of the dish, it was not a fish in the ordinary sense at all. Instead, it was a big turtle that was constantly shaking. This was a great tonic.
It had to be said that Chen Yong's luck was really heaven-defying.
Turtle was a creature that liked heat. Although it was not impossible to see it in winter, the probability of seeing it was very low.
This was especially true for turtles that hid in the river. If it felt too cold in winter, it would hide under the mud and sleep. Therefore, in winter, turtles could usually be seen at noon and afternoon when the temperature was the highest.
As for why this turtle appeared?
Perhaps the surface of the river had frozen to raise the temperature underwater, or perhaps the turtle was hungry and came out to look for food.
In short, Chen Yong was also very surprised. Before he transmigrated, he often went fishing, but he had never caught this thing. This was really the first time in his life.
Seeing the turtle, Yan Bugui broke down even more.
That soft-shelled turtle was at least a pound, which was much more expensive than other fish. After all, it was a great tonic.
Three to zero, a full three to zero.
The bloody number zero made Yan Bugui unable to sit still. He hurriedly walked in front of Chen Yong and expressed his desire to swap seats with him.
Chen Yong generously agreed.
It was fishing no matter where they went. Anyway, the two places were next to each other, and the distribution of fish was basically the same.
Besides, he had gained a lot today, and Yan Bugui was the one who brought him here. It was not a big deal to let him know the location. At most, he could just build a nest later. There was no need to fuss over such a small matter.
The two of them agreed to exchange seats, and Yan Bugui quickly sat down on the piece of land with good Feng Shui.
It had been more than an hour since they arrived here, and Chen Yong had already caught three fish. He had not opened his business yet. No matter what, he had to open his business first to catch a fish. Otherwise, he would have made a wasted trip.
You really let him bask in the light.
After a short while, Yan Bugui caught a carp. It was just a little small, about three or four taels in size. It was better than nothing, but he was so pleased with himself that he couldn't stop laughing.
There were more people fishing nearby than before.
Chen Yong and Yan Bugui's continuous serving of fish would naturally attract the attention of others.
A man nearby couldn't stand Yan Bugui's arrogance. He pouted his lips indignantly and said," What are you so smug about? You don't have much ability. You're just relying on someone else to give up the land. What's there to be smug about?"”
"What did you say?" Like a cat whose tail had been stepped on, Yan Bugui immediately stood up anxiously.
This was an insult to him, and he could not tolerate it.
That person ignored him. The main thing was that he had also caught a fish. When he caught it, he saw that it was also a Crucian Carp. Moreover, it was more than half a catty in size. That smug look made Yan Bugui gnash his teeth in anger.
Neither of them could stand the other. They snorted at each other and continued to fight silently. Both of them hoped to catch the big fish first and teach the other a lesson, letting the other know how powerful they were.
The two of them were at loggerheads, and Chen Yong could not be bothered to get involved.
Perhaps the heavens couldn't stand the way the two of them were doing things, so they didn't move after catching one fish each.
More and more people were fishing by the river, which made Chen Yong very surprised. The temperature by the river was very low, but there were so many people coming. It could be seen how desperate the people were to increase their income.
Among the new recruits, some of them did not fish but wandered around the area.
Yan Bugui had mentioned before that these people were a kind of personal " fishmongers " who would offer a price lower than the market price. They would secretly sell them in the city when they received them, and they could earn a lot of money from the difference every time.
At this moment, Chen Yong's fishing line straightened again. It was obvious that he had caught another fish.
This immediately attracted the attention of the fishmongers. Two of them walked directly to Chen Yong's side and looked at the bucket that Chen Yong was holding the fish in. There were two Crucian Carps and one Turtle. Their expressions immediately changed into surprise.
This guy's luck was really good!
Especially that big plate carp and soft-shelled turtle. These were valuable goods. He had to try his best to collect them later.
Just as the two of them came over, Chen Yong noticed that he had caught a big fish this time. Seeing that the fishing rod was seriously bent, he immediately stood up and focused on controlling the fishing rod in his hand.
Yan Bugui couldn't sit still. It seemed that this fish was at least four to five catties.
Chen Yong's great motivation naturally attracted everyone's attention. Some veterans knew that they had caught a big fish, so they even put down their fishing rods and ran over to see if Chen Yong could successfully catch it.
This fish was very strong. Fortunately, this simple fishing rod did not fall apart and did not break.
It was sometimes loose and sometimes tight. Chen Yong tried his best to control the rhythm of the fish. The fish was tossed around for nearly 20 minutes before Chen Yong, who was sweating profusely, picked it up. It seemed that the quality of the bamboo pole was really good. It actually lasted for so long and did not break.
This time, he caught a carp. It looked like it was definitely more than five pounds, but it would not be more than seven pounds.
A big fish of about six catties. It had been a while since anyone had caught a fish of this weight. The surrounding people were extremely envious. Some even thought about how much they should sell it for for Chen Yong.
Of course, more people were thinking about how to eat.
Some people said that braising was good, but it was a waste of seasoning. Some people said that steaming was good. The last one directly suggested "stewing fish in a big pot with pancakes", which was immediately recognized by everyone.
This guy was probably quite good at cooking. He talked about what sauce to put in the pancake and how long it would take to put the pancake on the side of the pot. The side close to the pot was crispy, and the side close to the fish could absorb enough soup. Just the thought of dipping the pancake into the soup, taking a bite of the fish, and drinking a glass of wine made him feel very beautiful.
When this fellow said that, even Chen Yong could not help but swallow his saliva.
This person's idea was not bad. Why don't he let Silly Zhu finish this fish tomorrow? Anyway, with that guy's craftsmanship, he definitely wouldn't let him down. He wouldn't waste such a rare big fish.
When the crowd dispersed, a group of fishmongers surrounded them.
Some of these people were in groups of two or three, while some were alone. They were all bidding at the same time. The prices were basically relatively low. The highest bid was only six yuan. Chen Yong was not interested at all.
"Brothers, I'm not going to sell these fish.”
Chen Yong smiled and gave each person a cigarette. He wasn't afraid of being forced to buy or sell, but he felt that there was no need to be so nosy.
Regardless of the era or the industry, there were rules. Chen Yong did not want to break the rules. After all, he planned to collect fish later. With this cigarette as a foundation, no one would make things difficult for him.
