Back to the small fishing village in 1982

Chapter 1328 Lucky Fish, Moon Fish

The moonfish looks very similar to the sunfish, but they are not the same fish.
The two fish have completely opposite meanings.

The moon fish represents luck and is a lucky fish, while the sunfish represents bad luck. If you meet one, you must stay away from it and burn two talismans to get rid of the bad luck.

Ye Yaodong looked on with delight as everyone watched and commented on the big fish.

In the middle in front of the wheelhouse, there is a rectangular fish bin cover with fish placed on both sides. The width is about one meter but less than two meters.

This moonfish was lying flat on the cover of the fish tank, taking up most of it. The big and small fish around it all looked particularly small and dim.

Ye Yaodong let the fishing boat continue along the predetermined sailing trajectory, and walked out of the cockpit to take a closer look.

As soon as he came out, everyone's excited expressions became more obvious, but the noise of the fishing boats was loud, the wind was strong and the waves were high, so he couldn't hear everyone's conversation clearly. He could only estimate by visual observation that the fish weighed about 100 kilograms.

He saw that the fishing net had just been pulled up and the goods inside had not yet been completely hung up and released. He estimated that there were still two or three packages of goods that needed to be hung up, so he felt at ease and took his camera and went down to take a look.

At this time, this moonfish has been lifted out from a pile of fish and shrimps, and everyone is standing up to measure its size, talking excitedly.

"This is amazing! This ocean is so magical. There are all kinds of strange fish..."

"It's also because of the deep sea. There are all kinds of strange fish in the deep sea."

"What kind of fish is that? I've never seen one before..."

"I've never seen it, so who knows what kind of fish it is? Anyway, we'll know what kind of fish it is when we sell it."

"If you don't know the goods, you will definitely be ripped off..."

Ye Yaodong stepped forward and pushed them apart, "Let me see, they are so big..."

"Brother Dong, do you know what kind of fish this is?"

"You don't know?" he asked back.

"How could I know? No one knows. This fish looks a bit strange, similar to a sunfish, but different. Is it auspicious? If it's unlucky, throw it away..."

Ye Yaodong lightly kicked the person who was talking, "Throw away your ghost, throw away all the goods, but don't throw away this fish."

Everyone was surprised.

"So valuable?"

"It's not a question of whether it's valuable or not. This fish is called the Moon Fish. It's a lucky fish. If you can see it once in your life, you'll be very lucky. If you dare to throw it away, I'll fight you to death."

"Oh my god! Is he that powerful?"

"I said this fish was special. When I first saw a little bit of it after it was hoisted up, I said we had a big catch..."

"I also think that this fish looks so beautiful, it must be valuable..."

Everyone was talking and exclaiming.

Ye Yaodong saw that they were all so busy looking at the fish that they forgot about their work.

As expected, a newbie is a newbie, and a makeshift team is a makeshift team. They are still not professional enough. Once they run far away, they don’t know what to do when they see something new.

"Don't just watch. You have to do your job. Seal the net again, throw the fish bag into the water, and continue hanging it."

This is not continuing to drag the net, but allowing the remaining fish in the net to continue filling the fish collecting bag before hoisting the net up.

Refer to the shocking incident of catching 11 kilograms of plum fish in one net.

I can't guarantee how much will be caught in the hundreds of meters long fishing net, but it will be at least tens of thousands of kilograms. It is impossible to finish the whole net at one time because the boom is not long enough.

In fact, it can’t be any longer, and the suspension rod will break easily.

The amount of cargo put into a fish collecting bag is 5000 kilograms at a time, which is commonly known as putting one bag.

When tens of thousands of kilograms of goods come in online, they can only be put in packages like this.

He just stared at the display screen and walked towards the place where the dots were densely distributed. There must be a lot of things collected online, there wouldn't be just one or two packages.

But these people are only concerned with looking at the big fish. They lack professionalism and have too little experience.

His urging made some people rush to close the net and throw it into the water, allowing the fish in the net to continue to fall into the fish bag.

Ye Yaodong continued, "More than a dozen people are standing here watching but no one is doing the work. We can't do this next time. And we still have to sort out these fish. Those that need to be bled should be bled, those that need to be frozen should be frozen, and those that need to be freshly chilled should be freshly chilled..."

"understand……"

Seeing a group of people about to disperse, he quickly called one of them and asked him to take a group photo with him.

His camera can now take color pictures, and this fish is already colorful, so it looks even better after being photographed and developed.

After taking the pictures, he hung the camera around his neck again, then held the fish with both hands and looked at it from beginning to end.

While the others were busy, they also turned their heads to look at the fish, and their work did not affect their conversation at all.

"Boss, how much can this fish sell for..."

"It should be more than 100 kilograms. It's flat and wide, like a pomfret. It must be very valuable."

"They say it's a lucky fish, and it's rare, so it must be very valuable..."

Ye Yaodong replied: "It depends on the situation. It depends on whether there are people who know the goods. If there are no people who know the goods in the short term, then it's all over. We can only try our luck and see how much we can sell it for."

"A few hundred dollars, right?"

Before he could answer, someone next to him said, "Nonsense, there must be one, it's so rare..."

"But a few hundred dollars can't buy this package of goods..."

Everyone looked at Ye Yaodong in confusion.

Ye Yaodong said, "I told you, it depends on the situation. At least a few hundred dollars. There's no need to doubt that. The most important thing is that he's lucky, you know? You may not see it once in your lifetime, and didn't you notice anything different about this fish?"

"What's different? Where is it different?"

"No difference, isn't it? It's just fish?"

"No, this fish feels warm to the touch..."

"Yes, there is temperature. We have just talked about it."

Ye Yaodong nodded, "This is the only warm-blooded fish we have discovered so far. You can tell how rare this fish is just by touching it, so I'd say it's worth a few hundred bucks at least. If it's more, it depends on how much the boss wants."

"Awesome, I've learned a lot..."

"Hurry up and get the second bag up. Stop talking."

"okay……"

I won’t give them any popular science lectures to avoid diverting their attention and making them not do their work properly.

After a few packages of goods are hung down, I will explain the situation to them.

The moonfish doesn’t get its name because it looks like the moon.

It is called the Moonfish because it lives 20 meters deep in the sea and cannot be seen during the day. It only surfaces when the moon is full around the 12th day of the lunar calendar every month, mostly between 1 a.m. and a.m.

Because it belongs to the family of moonfish, and it has dots on its body, like stars in the sky, it has earned its beautiful name.

Ye Yaodong calculated in his mind. The Lantern Festival had just passed, and today was the seventeenth day of the lunar calendar, which was indeed around the fifteenth day of the lunar calendar.

The time to go out to sea today was well chosen. I didn't expect to catch a moonfish.

So far, most moonfish have been caught by accident, which is like winning the lottery, no one expected it.

Since they do not travel in groups, commercial fishing is not practical.

He would never see it once in his life, and the heavy weight of this was enough to show how lucky he was.

This means that he will have smooth sailing and make a lot of money safely in the future.

These fishermen on the coast are so superstitious.

Ye Yaodong looked at the moonfish happily from head to toe, ready to bleed it himself.

He was not at ease to let other people come, so he would wait for him to deal with it and then have them carry it back to the freezer for storage, and then sell it for a good price when he returned.

At this time, the second package of cargo was also hoisted up. It was so full that the mast was bent.

"Fuck, this is amazing. I've never seen so much stuff in my life..."

"There are still some in the fishing net. We need to put a few more bags in. How can this boat catch so many fish?"

"There is... there is a display... screen..."

"This is just the beginning. The largest catch we've seen in a single net was 11 jin, and they were all plum fish, not this huge pile of miscellaneous fish..."

"Damn, you're so lucky that you followed the boss so early..."

"No, look, there's also a moon fish..."

Everyone raised their heads when they heard this, looking at the package of goods hanging high up, and they actually saw a small part of the color exposed, which was very similar to the moonfish just now.

Ye Yaodong, who was holding a knife, bleeding the moonfish and preparing its internal organs, looked up in surprise.

Just as they pulled out the pole, the net opened wide, and an identical fish instantly slipped out of the net.

He cursed happily and stood up, "Fuck? There's another one?"

"Get rich..."

“This one seems bigger?”

"Brother Dong, look, I didn't expect to catch two in one go."

"Didn't you say this fish is very rare? You might not even see one in your lifetime?"

Ye Yaodong laughed and scolded, "You are questioning me? Do I know more, or do you know more? This shows that I am lucky, not that there are too many fish, understand?"

How did he know that he could suddenly catch two with one net?
It made it seem like he was just bragging.

It clearly means that he is extremely lucky.

"Hahaha……"

"Can you talk? If you hadn't followed Brother Dong, you might never have seen one in your life."

"That's right. Brother Dong is strong in shipping. Didn't the villagers know about this a few years ago?"

Ye Yaodong said, "Lift the second fish down together and compare the two fish together. The second fish is indeed a size bigger."

"I think so too. The weights lifted are different..."

"It's a pity that there is no scale."

An old boatman smiled and said, "Why do we need a scale? Let's just lift it and we can get a rough estimate with our hands."

"Yes, this one is about 140-150 kilograms, and the one just now was about 120-130 kilograms. We can still make a rough estimate. We can still feel the huge difference in weight."

Ye Yaodong also raised his hand and felt that it was indeed similar. He smiled so hard that his teeth were showing.

"Great! What a great start."

"When we went out to sea, Uncle Ye's sacrifice was not in vain. He fed the Dragon King of the Sea, and the Dragon King of the Sea sent us a big cargo."

"Can't it be Mazu?"

"Yeah……"

There will be no next chapter after 0 o'clock. I am so tired these two days. I have been attending banquets or on the way to banquets. I am so sleepy and tired at night, so I will go to bed first.

This chapter, which was originally scheduled for the early morning, will be placed before midnight so that you don’t have to stay up late.

The next one today will be before 0:. I have to go out for something today, but I’m already writing it.
