Fu Wan dragged the fish basket and a small stool and sat down next to the pile of fish.

She picked up a small rake and started to dig, and found that they were all yellow shrimps two fingers wide.

Yellow shrimp is actually a local term for it. It is a type of local prawn and one of the most common shrimps caught in sea trawling. This one is still a bit small. In fact, this species is also called Chinese prawn, but the most common thing is the species of shrimp, not the size of the shrimp.

Take any two of the giants in front of Fu Wan, and they would probably weigh about one kilogram.

It is no exaggeration to say that it is the king of shrimps.

"Mom, look at this shrimp!"

Fu Wan picked out two big ones to show Ye Xiaocui. When Ye Xiaocui saw them, she screamed in shock.

"Oh my god, this shrimp is too big!"

Jiang Chunlan, who was standing next to her, was also surprised when she saw it.

"Goddess of Mazu, how come the shrimps are so big? Awan, are these the only two?"

Fu Wan nodded, motioning them to look at the pile of fish in front of them, "Look, there are still quite a few here!"

Ye Xiaocui and Jiang Chunlan looked over and were so surprised. They were just dazzled by the nine-segmented shrimp in front of them that they didn't realize there were such big yellow shrimps.

"So many yellow shrimp, still alive! Quickly pick these shrimp out and keep them in seawater!"

While they were busy here, Fu Ming was also carrying a fish basket and catching octopuses all over the ground. There were no big sea fish in this net, mostly octopuses, squids, cuttlefish, and various shrimps.

There are the giant yellow shrimps discovered by Fu Wan and the nine-segmented shrimps picked by Ye Xiaocui.

In addition, there are some smaller oyster shrimps.

Oyster shrimp are also known locally as red shrimp, and in Fu San's hotel, they're called eagle claw shrimp. These shrimp have red heads and claws, and most importantly, even simply blanched, they're incredibly delicious. "It was strange today, too. Both times I hauled in the net, I ended up with shrimp."

This sounded like a complaint, but Ye Xiaocui didn't actually mean it that way.

The price of shrimp is not lower than that of fish, and the weight of these shrimp is about the same as that of ordinary fish, so the money you make in the end will only be more, not less.

Especially the yellow shrimp in Fu Wan's hand, the nine-segment shrimp in Ye Xiaocui's basket, and the hundreds of kilograms of mantis shrimp they picked out in one net.

These are all expensive.

As he was speaking, Fu Liang also took over the shift with Boss Fu and came to the deck.

"Wow, what a great harvest today!"

Fu Liang stretched his sore limbs while walking, and kept staring at the situation on the sea in the cockpit. Even though he was sitting most of the time, it was very tiring.

"Brother Aliang, you take a break first, we can take care of the fish here."

Seeing Fu Liang coming to help, Fu Wan hurriedly persuaded him. Sorting fish was not an easy job, and it took an hour or two to sit on the small stool.

It was precisely because Boss Fu had a bad back that he never participated in picking fish.

Fu Liang had just retired from his job as a boat driver, and Fu Wan was not an exploitative capitalist.

Fu Liang shook his head when he heard this. Everyone was busy, so how could he sit idle?

"No need. Looking at all these fish, I feel full of energy."

After saying that, he rolled up his sleeves and joined Fu Wan and the others.

"Oh my god, such a big shrimp!"

When Fu Liang saw the shrimps in Fu Wanyu's basket, he immediately cursed.

"Yeah, these shrimps must be very sweet. I'll eat two when I get home at noon."

Fu Wan whispered, and Fu Liang felt a little painful when he heard it, but he was also happy to see the good stuff.

He didn't even care when the cuttlefish in his hand sprayed ink all over his hand.

By the time he discovered it, the gloves had been soaked in ink and turned black.

Cuttlefish, squid and octopus are all fish that easily spray ink when they encounter danger or stimulation, so when you pick the fish, the fish baskets will also be dirty.

However, Fu Ming, Ye Lin and others didn't mind. After all, fishermen are not clean when they work.

Just rinse it off with water later.

In addition to these shrimps, there are actually quite a few sea fish, but they are all cheap and common peeling fish and yellowtail fish. Fu Ming put them all into two fish baskets.

"Hey, there are two boss fish here!"

After picking out the prawns, Fu Wan accidentally found two big fish under the pile of prawns. She grabbed the long tails and pulled out the two half-dead fish, and then threw them directly into Fu Liang's fish basket.

The boss fish, also known as the croaker, resembles a smaller manta ray, with its fins spread out like wings. Unlike the straight spines of a manta ray, the tail is curved and soft. (Image of boss fish, please delete if infringed) The croaker's flesh is tender and delicious, and cooking it doesn't require any elaborate process. Simply stew a piece of tofu with some scallions, ginger, and garlic, and the aroma is enough to make the kids next door cry.

"Mom, let's keep one of these fish for ourselves!"

Thinking of the taste of tofu stewed with boss fish, Fu Ming couldn't help swallowing his saliva, and Ye Xiaocui didn't object.

"Eat, eat, eat. Boss, keep some of the fish and shrimp for yourself."

She felt a little painful after saying this, but as soon as she finished speaking, not only Fu Ming, but also Fu Wan, Fu Liang and Ye Lin had a little light in their eyes.

Well, making money is also for living a good life for her family. Now that they are living a good life, isn’t it just eating some fish and shrimp? Ye Xiaocui is also open-minded.

Although she thought so, she still felt heartbroken. Jiang Chunlan could understand her old sister's feelings to some extent, so she patted her hand.

"It's okay. There are plenty of fish and shrimp on this boat. It's no big deal to keep some for yourself."

"Other families eat good food during festivals, but now that we have a good life, isn't it like every day is a festival?"

At this point, Jiang Chunlan thought of something. She looked around and saw that her son was busy, so she leaned over to Ye Xiaocui and whispered:

"Xiao Cui, I haven't told you yet that Aliang has fallen in love with someone."

As soon as these last words were spoken, Ye Xiaocui's heartache immediately exploded to the sky.

"What, what did you say you fell in love with?!"

The two men spoke in low voices, and the wind was so strong on the deck that Fu Ming and his companions could not hear anything.

But Fu Wan heard it clearly.

Wow, this Brother Aliang actually succeeded in his blind date secretly and didn’t even tell them!

On this side, Fu Wan pricked up her ears to listen to Jiang Chunlan's description of Fu Liang's kiss, while on the other side, Fu Liang had no idea and was even a little confused.

Why did Awan look at him with a gossipy look, which made her feel uneasy.

Fu Liang's blind date is a girl from a village in the town. The girl is the second child in the family. Although she has only attended elementary school, she is said to be very capable at doing things at home.

Fu Wan and the others were not there when they had their wedding that day. Jiang Chunlan looked like a straightforward and generous girl.

The most important thing is that she suits Fu Liang's taste.

"Chunlan, it looks like good things are coming to your family soon!"

Ye Xiaocui joked, and Jiang Chunlan was so happy that she couldn't stop smiling. "Oh, isn't it? If I go down from now on, I will be able to do justice to his dead father."

"Pah, pah, pah, what are you talking about?"

The two old sisters were still chatting here, and Fu Wan was happy to listen to the gossip. Seeing that the fish on the deck had been picked almost all, the Bird's Nest Island was just around the corner.
