"Sister's WeChat message is here." In the early morning, a little girl's voice woke up the little girl.
This is the sound of an electronic alarm clock, and it is also Yang Fan's bad taste. The little girl kept asking what WeChat was.
Although Xiao Niangpi is sleepy and really doesn't want to get up, today is the day to close the net. Playfulness triumphed over staying in bed. She stretched out cutely, covered her mouth with her little hands and breathed. By the way, he kicked Lin Yueru with his little feet, telling her to stop sleeping and get up quickly.
Lin Yueru, with disheveled hair, started to do it, and asked blankly: "Is it five o'clock? Why do I feel like I was woken up by you as soon as I lay down?"
"Get up quickly, it's five o'clock. After taking the sauna, I slept like a dead pig." Xiao Niangpi said as she took Dongxiang's clothes from Kaoruan.
Lin Yueru quickly got up when she thought of looking at the net. It was so comfortable to sleep in the sauna. Especially in this cold winter. I felt warm all night.
They passed around the clothes and took the maid and servants off the boat. There are already husky dogs waiting. A dozen sleighs were parked on the shore. After all, the river is more than twenty miles long.
In the morning, there was a strong wind and snow foam was flying everywhere.
But this can't offset their playful enthusiasm. Especially Lin Yueru, seems to want to make up for the lost childhood. When she was a child, she lived under someone else's roof and was homeless. I learned early on to look at people’s faces and seek perfection through humiliation. It wasn't until I married a husband who loved his wife that I lived the life of my dreams.
Her fun-loving nature comes to the fore. More playful than a little girl.
Baskets of steaming steamed cakes and boiled whale meat were brought up. The servants chopped it up, put it in small stainless steel basins, and distributed it to the dogs. The dogs got excited when they saw the steaming food. Gobble it up hungrily.
After the meal, there was also dog soup. Add a little salt to the water used to cook the meat, and fill the dog food bowl once again. These dog food bowls are engraved with the dog's name, one for each dog, and they are the dog's private property.
After the dogs finished eating, they immediately put on the ropes in high spirits. Xiaoniangpi and the others also boarded the sledge. Amidst the shouting, the dogs barked, stuck out their tongues, and flew with their hooves, pulling the sled very fast. Running in the forest and snowy fields.
Because Xiao Niangpi and Lin Yueru were light in weight, weighing less than 200 kilograms, they sat on a sledge. Their little faces were red with excitement, and they were still yelling at the dog to hurry up. When you get to a place, give them lunch meat. The dogs were drooling and ran even harder.
After turning around two ravines and climbing over a hill, we finally came to the river where the tent was set up. There was a team of soldiers guarding here last night. Although there was a cotton tent and a stove, it was freezing and I didn't sleep all night.
They need to take turns using long-handled hand nets to constantly fish out the ice debris and throw it outside. Otherwise, the ice windows in this tent will freeze again.
Xiao Niangpi saw them working hard. They were immediately sent back to the ship to warm up. This time they brought two hundred people. Also comes with a pulley block and mechanical winch.
"Madam, you can close the net now." Su Tong said. The mechanical winch was quickly installed. With the pulley block, 80% of the effort can be saved. Otherwise, tens of thousands of catties of fish would not be hauled up by manpower.
"Okay, let's start." Xiao Niangpi ordered.
Hundreds of strong men immediately attached the long wooden pole to the winch, and then pushed it in a circle in groups of ten. The chain creaked and made a harsh noise like grinding teeth, but it was still pulled and was retracted bit by bit by the winch.
Although it's slow, it's really coming back bit by bit.
"The net is out, the net is out," a servant with sharp eyes shouted immediately.
One end of the 200-meter long net has come out, bulging. But it didn’t come out for long before it couldn’t be pulled. Because the window was too small and the net wrapping the fish was too thick, it got stuck.
"Let the engineers go, tear down the tent, and then blast the surrounding ice." Xiao Niangpi said excitedly. It looks like we can really get a lot of fish.
With the fixed-point blasting of engineers. More than a dozen large ice blocks were dragged onto the ice, and the window finally expanded to ten meters square. It was definitely enough for now.
So, 200 people took turns to push the winch, and the giant fishing net was dragged onto the ice little by little. They were excited to find that the fishing net was stretched to a diameter of two meters. There are all kinds of fish densely packed inside.
At this time, despite the excitement, no one dared to stop. If they stopped, the fishing net carrying a large amount of water would be frozen on the ice and could no longer be dragged. So we had to work hard to drag up all the fishing nets, and collect them quickly before it was too cold.
Although the winch was set at 300 meters, the net was stretched because there were so many fish. In the end, there was still about ten meters left. It was still pulled out manually.
The servants didn't care about looking at the fish, so they pulled it forward from the tail so as to collect the fishing net before it was frozen.
As for the fish piled on the ice, they are inevitable anyway, just collect them later.
After the fishing nets were recovered and packed into a huge bag, they came over to see what to do with the fish.
At this time, Xiao Niangpi and Lin Yueru had already grown their mouths. The fish pile up on the ice almost like a wall. Still beating, struggling, being frozen.
The 300-meter-long fish wall probably weighs more than 10,000 to 20,000 kilograms.
Su Tong was even more excited and trembling all over. Ever since someone came from the court, he had been immersed in happiness, and good things happened one after another. Now I actually learned this way of fishing. No one will ever go hungry again. The harvest of tens of thousands of catties of fish from this net is enough to last until the beginning of spring.
"Ah! What is this?" Lin Yueru screamed in horror. He was so frightened that he jumped far away.
The servants quickly gathered around and protected the second lady behind them.
A black fish that was more than one meter long and looked like a hairtail, with a mouth full of terrifying fangs, sprang up and bit people. One of the servants had quick eyesight and quick hands, and hit it on the head with a horse stick, smashing the head into pieces.
Su Tong rushed over to take a look and comforted him: "Second Madam, don't be surprised. This is a pike, not a water snake, and it is not poisonous."
Xiao Niangpi also ran over and pulled the killed pike with a stick, looking through it curiously. Then he frowned and said, "This fish looks really ugly, and it probably doesn't taste good either."
Su Tong stroked his beard and smiled and said, "That lady is wrong. This kind of fish is a fish that specializes in eating fish, and the meat is very delicious."
"The jaws, heart and bile of pike have the functions of stopping bleeding, reducing fever, stopping diarrhea, preventing plague, etc., and have many medicinal values. Pike is the most brutal carnivorous fish among freshwater fish. In addition to attacking other fish, It also attacks frogs, rats, wild ducks, etc. The pike has thick flesh with few spines, is tender and white, and tastes great.”
When I heard it was delicious, the little girl's eyes immediately lit up.
