Chapter 341: Quickly Point at the Big One and Catch It

"Uncle, why are there so many fish here?" Li Changshui ran over with the sound of splashing water, looking at the fish on the ground with shining eyes.

Father Li, who was holding a blackfish, looked up at him in surprise and asked, "Is there no fish in the village?"

"It's raining. I heard that Wang Laobian's head was hit by a fish and it was bleeding." Li Changshui grabbed a fish and threw it into the bucket. "There are not as many fish as you have here in the village. They were all picked up after the rain stopped for a while!"

"There are a lot of things here, how much do you bring with you?" Father Li said as he quickened his movements and threw everything he grabbed, no matter how big or small, into the bamboo basket.

"I only brought a bucket. I should have called Yufang along." Li Changshui walked with the net bag, picking up the fish. These fish were given up by Li Changle and his brothers.

"Here!" Father Li quickly took out the net bag from his trouser pocket and handed it to him. "There are a lot of big fish ahead. Your brother and the others have gone to the front."

"Thank you, second uncle. I'll go right away!" Li Changshui took the net bag and was about to leave.

"A Shui!" Wang Daobiao's wife called him, "Have all the fish in the village been picked up?"

"There are not many in the village. There are only a few fish in my yard." Li Changshui thought that he would soon find the villagers coming here, so he couldn't help but speed up his movements.

After hearing this, Wang Daobiao's wife put down the bucket and said, "Ah Biao, I'll go back and call my mother and brother to come pick up the fish."

"Yulan, we will catch less fish if you make this trip. They will come looking for us soon."

"It's raining so hard, how would they know that we have fish here?" Li Yulan said and ran away without waiting for his consent.

When Li's father saw that she had gone back to the village to call people, he hurriedly pulled the cart to the front to load the fish that Li Changle had left on the roadside, preparing to pull the fish back and release it to chase them.

Li Changle and his brothers are still at the intersection leading to the beach, mainly because there are more fish here than at the Nanshan intersection and in the valley.

In addition to sea bass, mackerel and mullet, they also caught pomfret, black porgy, yellowfin bream and red-eyed mullet. They only picked out the big ones. The net bags carried by the four were already full before they even reached the beach.

"Look, brother, it's at least two kilograms!" Chen Yongwei was holding a red grouper, his mouth wide open with joy.

"Kill Jia! Another ten bucks."

Li Changle grabbed a Spanish mackerel and put it into the bucket. When he looked up and saw the big bright red fish in the shallow water in front of him, he ran over excitedly, picked it up and showed it off to the others, "Hahaha, I'll get a big red grouper too!"

Brother Li touched it happily and said, "It's more than ten kilograms, right?"

"Yes! Hahaha!" Li Changle proudly held the fish and put it into the bamboo basket. Such a beautiful fish would look ugly if it was put into a net bag and the scales were worn off.

I turned my head and saw Li Changshui through the rain and fog, struggling to carry a bucket of water towards me. "Brother, it looks like there is no fish rain in the village, but Ah Shui is here."

"Let's hurry up and catch the big fish. The villagers will be here soon." Brother Li brought together the four net bags full of fish and tied them up with a hemp rope.

"Oh oh!" Everyone sped up their movements, but there were too many fish, and even with four pairs of hands, all pointing at the big ones, they could not catch them all.

Li Changle saw Li Changshui still picking up the fish they had picked out, and shouted at him, "Ah Shui, what are you doing in the back? Come over here and catch the big fish!"

"Oh oh!" Li Changshui walked over with difficulty, dragging the net bag and bucket.

He looked at the fish that the others had caught and then at what he had caught. He picked up a Spanish mackerel weighing more than half a pound and said, "Brother, you don't want anything like this?"

"Wouldn't it be nice if I caught something like this?" Li Changle said to him as he grabbed a swordfish weighing more than a pound.

Brother Li patted Li Changshui and said, "Silly boy, while there is no one around, quickly point to the big ones and catch them. When there are more people, come all at once."

After all this time, you can still do it this way! Li Changshui nodded quickly, put down the bucket and started working.

He grabbed a big fish and looked up to see Father Li pulling a cart over. "Uncle, you're here too!"

"I'll pull the fish back. Yulan has gone back to call her family. The villagers should be here soon. You guys hurry up and pick up the big fish."

When Brother Li saw him coming, he hurried over with a bucket and helped to move the full net bag onto the cart, "Dad, you also brought a bamboo basket!"

"The bamboo basket is easy to hold!" Father Li took the bamboo basket down and said, "Here you go. I'll go back and call your mother and the others. The fish here are bigger."

"Okay!" Brother Li dragged the bamboo basket towards Li Changle and the others.

Father Li pulled the cart home and moved the net bag on the cart into the small house next to the kitchen, where he saw a pile of fish on the stone slab.

This time he pulled back more than a dozen net bags, each of which could hold forty to fifty kilograms. Together with what he picked up and this pile, it was at least more than a thousand kilograms.

"Wow! We've only been working for over an hour. If the whole family catches them until dark, wouldn't that be tens of thousands of pounds?"

Father Li became more and more excited the more he thought about it. He quickly poured the fish out of the net bag and spread them out on the stone slab. He thought that it was only three o'clock and he had to go buy a cart of ice.

After finishing his work, he went to the kitchen to move a pile of bamboo baskets to the car, then thought about it and grabbed a stack of sacks. He said hello to Li's mother and hurried to the beach.

Mother Li hurriedly called her daughters-in-law, and soon the mother-in-law and the daughters-in-law pushed a tricycle and took their four older children to the beach.

Li Xiaohai and Li Xiaobo looked at the people who walked away in big strides, and picked up fish in the yard with their younger brothers and sisters.

When Li's mother and her friends reached the intersection, they saw Li Yulan's family running towards them in a hurry, followed by a dozen villagers. When these people saw Li Changle and his friends picking up the remaining fish, they excitedly grabbed them and threw them into buckets and baskets, "Damn it, why are there so many fish in Nanshan Ao?"

"Yes, I used to complain about this place, but now even God is taking care of this place, and there are more fish here."

"Mom, please walk faster. There are more people ahead." Seeing that everyone in her family had left, Li Yulan hurriedly pulled her mother and hurriedly caught up with Li's mother and the others.

"Ahua, wealth has come to your family. Even the heavens are helping you. There are more fish on your side."

"Mother Yulan, you are talking about your son-in-law's family, right?" Li's mother responded without stopping for a moment.

She caught up with her daughters-in-law and said to Zhou Ruonan, "Anan, you and Xiaoyang go buy some ice cubes. We're going to the beach."

"Hey, hey!" Zhou Ruonan and Li Xiaoyang pushed the tricycle forward. They saw fish everywhere on the road to the dock. They picked them up as they walked...

When the villagers saw Li's mother and her friends walking towards the beach, they didn't even bother to pick up the small fish on the road and swarmed after them.

When Li's mother and her group arrived at the beach, they immediately joined the battle. They took a bamboo basket from the cart, dragged the rope tied to the basket, caught the fish and threw them into the basket. It was more convenient than using a net bag or a bucket.

"Oh my god, this densely packed field is just like drying grains...

"Catch it quickly, there's a mackerel over there! It's this big and can be sold for three pounds!"

"There's a pomfret there, my god, it's a big white pomfret!"

Mrs. Li was also very happy, "Mother, I haven't come to the beach to pick up seafood like this in many years!"

Mrs. Li couldn't help but say, "Sister-in-law, have you forgotten? The last time we came here to catch jellyfish, it was Ah Le who found it!"

Li's mother said cheerfully, "One year later, your sister-in-law was still pregnant with Xiaoyang. After the typhoon, the beach was full of sea urchins and various snails, and there were people everywhere on the beach."

"I remember two families fighting on the beach for a large yellow croaker. They were stabbed on the buttocks by sea urchins and screamed in pain."

Father Li took over and said, "Sea urchins are nothing. When I was in my teens, there was a typhoon and the beach was full of sea cucumbers. Oh my! I was in my teens and I realized that they tasted tasteless. They were better than mantis shrimp."

"Grandpa, sea cucumber stewed with chicken is quite delicious!" Li Xiaotao said.

"Where could we get chicken at that time? We didn't even have shredded sweet potatoes to eat. How could we want to eat chicken..."

Mrs. Li was quick-eyed and quick-handed. When she saw a big grouper, she didn't even bother to say anything to her son. She stepped on the fish, grabbed the gills and threw it into the bamboo basket.

Li Changle saw her lift her legs, pick the fish gills, and throw the fish in one go, so she held the fish and gave her a thumbs up, "Sister-in-law, you are awesome!"

Mrs. Li said happily: "Haha, I'm used to snatching!"

The beach is full of fish, but there are not many people catching them. Logically, I shouldn't worry about someone snatching the fish, but I'm used to snatching fish this way, and I can't help myself when I see the big ones.

"If we don't rob them, there won't be any good stuff. There are a lot of worthless snails and miscellaneous fish."

The mother-in-law and the daughter-in-law excitedly talked about the past without stopping their actions.

The three children worked efficiently. Li Xiaotao pulled the bamboo basket, while Li Xiaoqing and Li Xiaohui caught the big fish and threw them into the basket. Soon, their bamboo baskets were full.

Big Brother Li and Father Li hurriedly moved the bamboo baskets and net bags onto the cart. "Dad, you stay here, I'll pull it back!"

"Okay!" Father Li helped him push the cart out of the beach, picked up the bamboo basket and continued working.

Li Changle caught a four or five kilogram sea bream from the puddle and put it in a net bag. He wiped the rain off his face and looked up at the intersection. He saw more and more people carrying sacks, net bags, and buckets rushing towards this side.

"Ah Le, you monkey, you caught so many?" Ah Fa ran towards him with a bucket in his hand, shouting, "I saw my brother pulled a cart full of fish."

Li Changle rolled her eyes at him, "You knew it was raining fish, but you didn't even come out to see it. You're just staying home to have a baby!"

Chen Yongwei added, "Even Ah Shui has come to find you, and you still don't know!"

"Oh, I think the weather is not right, so I'm sleeping at home! If Xiaoyu hadn't called me, I wouldn't have known it!" Ge Changfa said as he started working.

"Uncle Le!" Xiang Xiaoyu ran over with a net bag.

"Hurry up and catch the fish. When the fish is full, ask Uncle Ping to take it to my house for you." Li Changle raised his hand habitually, but only reacted when he saw the gloves and quickly retracted his hand.

"Thank you, Uncle Le!" Xiang Xiaoyu bent over and started working.

Not long after Afa, Xiang Xiaoyu and his group arrived, another large group of people came. The beach was full of people. The fishermen were no longer picky and would just put the fish they saw into their catches.

Some people picked up big fish and excitedly held them up to show off to everyone, "Look! I found a big mackerel!"

"Oh, I just passed by there, how come I didn't see it?" said a villager who passed by there enviously.

"I saw it by the reef. There must be more ahead. Hurry up and catch them!" The villager who picked up the big fish happily carried the net bag and continued to catch fish.
