Chapter 3 Catfish
Before leaving, Zhou An found out that the girl¡¯s name was Zhao Fei and she lived in the village chief¡¯s house.
I thought she would be surprised to find him at home and feel happy again. It would be interesting to see how she would deny it.
Zhou An took the big ox home and found a small hoe for digging corn roots in the yard. There was a dark, damp area in the yard that was overgrown with weeds. Zhou An was digging the ground there. He was not weeding, but catching earthworms.
Zhou An put the earthworms he caught into a glass bottle and carried his homemade bamboo fishing rod.
"Old Huang, you take good care of your house at home. I'll go out and prepare lunch for us two. You can have fish soup at noon."
The old scalper mooed twice and agreed, nodding and shaking his head. Maybe he not only wanted to drink fish soup, but also wanted to eat fish.
Zhou An went out carrying the fishing rod. He said hello to the villagers he met on the road, and soon came to the pond to the west of the village.
There is a Baishui River in front of Qingshan Village. In addition to the heavy rainfall in recent years, the pond has not been dry for decades. There are many big fish in the pond.
A circle of willows is planted around the pond, with lush branches and leaves. A stream of smoked willows has thousands of hanging threads, which can just block the sun.
Zhou An moved a stone and placed it under the willow tree as a stool, quickly put the earthworm on the fishhook, and then started staring at the fish float.
Today the weather is very good, there is no wind, the water surface is as calm as a mirror, and the slightest movement of the fish float will cause ripples.
Zhou An didn¡¯t lift the rod immediately when he saw the fish float moving. No matter what kind of fish, they are very alert. They will not swallow the bait in one bite, but will test it repeatedly until they are sure that there is no danger before they bite the hook.
There are two situations that are best identified. One is that the entire fish float is dragged into the water, and the other is that the entire fish float floats to the surface. In both cases, there must be fish taking the bait.
"Yes!"
Zhou An knew something was there as soon as he saw the fish floating up. He suddenly lifted the fishing rod upwards, the fishing line collapsed straight, and his hand felt heavy.
What was hooked was a crucian carp, about half a catty and nearly 20 centimeters long. Its tail slapped the water, and Zhou An directly lifted it out.
A small fish of this weight is still within the tolerance range of a fishing line and a homemade fishing rod. If it is a big fish, it must not be lifted directly. Instead, it must be allowed to swim for a while, and it can only be dragged after the fish has lost its strength. Catch on the shore, otherwise the fishing line may snap or the fishing rod may break.
In a short time, Zhou An caught four or five fish, including crucian carp and grass carp. The sun was already high at this time, and it would be noon soon. Zhou An planned to call it a day and go home.
The best time to fish is in the morning or evening. This is the time when fish eat and are more active. If the temperature is too high, the fish will dive into deep water and not move much.
Zhou An, who was planning to call it a day, took a casual glance and found that the fish float had sunk completely at a staggering speed.
"It must be a big guy!" Zhou An was startled. He lifted the fishing rod first to make sure the hook was hung firmly. As soon as he lifted it, he felt a huge pulling force in his hand, which almost dragged him into the water.
"Good boy!" Zhou An was really startled. He held the fishing rod tightly and did not dare to pull it back. The entire fishing rod was pulled into a full moon bow. For a homemade fishing rod, he faced the biggest challenge in history. test.
To be honest, Zhou An was really reluctant to give up like this. He could only play loosely and cautiously, one person and one fish, to see who could persevere to the end.
The big fish seemed to be trying its best to break free, and actually jumped out of the water. Only then did Zhou An see what a big thing he had caught.
This is a catfish that is more than one meter long and weighs about twenty or thirty kilograms. Anchovy is a large carnivorous fish that is common in rivers and lakes in the north. It has a large body and strong strength, and is known as the king of freshwater fish.
This catfish is still in its juvenile stage, and the largest catfish weighs more than 1,000 kilograms. Even the cubs are very ferocious in the water.
¡°Plop!¡±
The catfish fell back into the water, making a huge splash.
Zhou An roughly estimated that he battled wits and courage with the baby catfish for more than half an hour before the baby catfish gradually became exhausted and was pulled bit by bit by Zhou An towards the shore. .
A huge figure slowly emerged in the water. The catfish had a sharp mouth and a blue-black back. At this time, it could no longer do any tricks, but it was still making its final struggle, splashing a lot. The water splash wet Zhou An's clothes.
Zhou An simply put the fishing line to the stoneHe circled around, rolled up his trouser legs and entered the water to fight naked with the catfish. It took some more effort to completely subdue the catfish.
Zhou An attracted bursts of exclamations from the villagers on his way home carrying the big catfish and the bucket.
"What a big catfish, Anwa is really lucky."
"Yes, I haven't seen such a big guy in many years. Anwa, how about you kill this fish and sell it to me so that I can have a taste of it."
Speaking of which, Zhou An¡¯s luck is really good. He caught monkey heads a few days ago, and he caught catfish today.
The villagers followed Zhou An home with envy on their faces and weighed them. They found that the catfish was more than 1.5 meters tall and weighed more than 30 kilograms.
Even the village chief came over after asking for information, followed by a middle-aged man in his forties, looking at the catfish in the big iron basin with burning eyes.
"Zhou An, it would be a pity to kill such a big catfish, why not sell it to me. The market price is about thirty yuan per catty, how about you count it at thirty-five?"
Village chief Wei Zhengguang said very proudly that the man next to him was the wealthy boss who came to Qingshan Village for a visit. After hearing the news, he asked the village chief to help buy the catfish, and he was willing to pay 40 yuan per catty.
Wei Zhengguang opened his mouth and said thirty-five, and made a little profit in the middle. Firstly, he was the village chief, and secondly, the price offered was indeed not low. I expected Zhou An would not refute his face.
The villagers were stunned when they heard this. At thirty-five pounds per catty, this catfish can be sold for more than a thousand yuan. For the villagers in the ravine, this is almost like wealth falling from the sky.
The villagers couldn¡¯t help but get jealous. Some asked Zhou An where he caught the fish, and some advised Zhou An to sell the fish. Everyone knows that catfish are not easy to catch, but if this guy can catch it, he might just be lucky.
"If you don't want to sell it, I'm going to raise it." Zhou An shook his head and didn't buy the village chief's blame.
"Little brother, the price is negotiable. Can I add an extra five yuan?" the middle-aged man next to Wei Zhengguang spoke.
Zhou An knew that this person should have some relationship with Zhao Fei, but he had already made up his mind, so he shook his head and said, "I won't sell it if I tell you not to."
"Why does this kid have a grudge against Qian?" Wei Zhengguang's face turned cold, but there was nothing he could do against Zhou An. Zhou An seemed to be easy to talk to, but if you really want to have trouble with him, he will risk his life with you. .
There is an ancestral grave of Zhou An¡¯s family in the village land plan. Zhou An stood in front of the grave with a kitchen knife. No one dared to touch it at all. The village chief knew that Zhou An was not easy to mess with.
The village chief left angrily, and the villagers who were watching the excitement also dispersed. Zhou An first dug a small pond and threw the catfish in it, so that the catfish would not die of thirst after being out of the water for too long. After a busy day, I was exhausted and sweating profusely, but I was very happy.
¡° Only then did he have time to deal with the crucian carp and grass carp caught in the bucket, disembowelled the fish, cleaned them up and walked into the kitchen.
Zhou An boarded the Xiaoyu Live Broadcasting Platform, and as soon as the name Cowboy appeared, people started to enter the room.
"What is the anchor doing? Are you going to cook live?"
"Brother Niu, you are such a good person, why do you want to come to the Food Channel to cause trouble?"
¡°Look, look, let¡¯s see what dark dishes the anchor can make.¡±
The audience in the room became interested, and most of them commented on Zhou An¡¯s comments.
Zhou An didn't care what others said. He heated up the iron pot and poured in peanut oil. When the oil was hot, he added chopped green onion and ginger slices, poured in a little cooking wine, and then started adding water.
??Curian carp stewed is more nutritious, but Zhou An thinks it is tasteless. After the pot is boiled, he puts the processed fish into the pot, adds pepper, aniseed and other condiments, and then adds a little salt and beer.
Freshwater fish will have an earthy smell, and adding beer can remove it very well. After a while it was steaming hot and fragrant.
The audience in the live broadcast room were eagerly waiting for Zhou An to make a fool of himself, but they didn't expect that he was cooking in an orderly manner. Seeing the iron pot beeping and bubbling, these people were almost drooling.
Soon the fish was stewed, and Zhou An filled a large porcelain bowl with it and put it on the table. The fish soup in the large porcelain bowl is as white and thick as milk, and the fish meat is white and tender, and tastes delicious. Zhou An enjoyed eating with chopsticks one after another, but the audience in the live broadcast room couldn't stand it.
"The anchor is too much. I just finished eating, and seeing you eating so deliciously, I feel hungry again. I can't eat anymore, otherwise I will gain weight." This is the speech of a girl.
"What you have eaten is quite good, but what I have not eaten is miserable. Anchor, I also want to eat delicacies from the mountains and seas, so give me a bite!"
"Ouch, Lao Huang got into the fish soup. No, I'm going to fight with Lao Huang for some soup!"
Of course Zhou An would not forget the agreement he made with Lao Huang, and they would enjoy the meal happily.
"It smells so good! Is Zhou An at home?"
A crisp sound suddenly sounded outside the house. When Zhou An heard this voice, he knew who it was and couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth. (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com)Very happy.
