Black Iron’s Glory

Chapter 70—Night Fishing

Claude was busy with the barbecue, and Welikro stared at the three small fish-tank lanterns floating on the water while eating the roast beef skewers. He always likes to fish. When Eriksson said that he could carry out barbecue activities, he got three fishing rods and threw them into the water. Then he caught four small fishes in just over half an hour. It's no wonder that the Whitestag fishermen think that the harvest of night fishing is comparable to a net fishing in the daytime…

Eriksson helped Claude to wear a skewer next to the barbecue shelf, and looked at the six chicken wings on the shelf that were sizzling and sizzling, and eagerly urged it. Borkal, on the other hand, sat on the deck with a high-bend bow, holding a bottle of blueberry wine in one hand and a fork in one hand. The fork was a large piece of fat-fried steak.

Brush the sauce evenly over the six chicken wings and turn them over. Claude finally vacated one hand and said to Eriksson: "Don't worry, just right…"While picking up a piece of roasted lamb from the wooden tray next to it, he was busy for a long time, and he was hungry…

A glimpse of the three squid skin lanterns floating gently along the waves on the lake suddenly went down and the candlelight went out. Welikro was quick-eyed, and picked up the fishing rod and raised it. I couldn’t help but say: "Get the net bag, it’s big!"

The fish hooked by the hook was indeed a big fish, struggling desperately. Eriksson stood in the side of the ship with a net bag and stared at the lake. Just as Welikro pulled the big fish near the lake with a fishing rod, Eriksson lightning-like one. Copy, put the lake fish in the net.

"It's a red-backed squid, one foot and a half long, about five or six pounds…"Eriksson is very confident in estimating the weight of the lake fish that is being pulled to the deck and still jumping. This red-backed squid is also one of the specialties of the Beringa Lake and is a freshwater fish. However, if the cooking is not good, there will be a smell of earthworms. Generally, the fish are made into fish pine for long-term preservation.

"Throw in the cabin, your chicken wings are good."Claude placed the roasted six chicken wings on a wooden plate next to it, and then placed a cut long-tailed fish on the grill, which he prepared to eat.

Welikro slammed the red-backed squid in the net bag, took the hook off the fish's mouth, and poured the fish into the living tank. Then he didn't continue to put the bait on the hook, but washed his hands in the lake and came over and took a chicken wing from Eriksson's wooden plate and picked it up.

The barbecue of the long-nosed fish is very simple. It can be turned over two or three times, and it takes three minutes in total. Put the fish on a wooden plate, brush the salt water on both sides, and you can eat it. Claude likes this way of eating, thinking that this keeps the taste of the long-tailed swordfish itself. Welikro is a heavy taste and likes to apply a variety of sauces to the fish.

See Claude eating a long-nosed fish, Welikro finished the chicken wings and took a stick and grilled it on the grill.

Claude asked: "Don't you look at the two little lanterns?"

The biggest problem with night fishing is that you can't see the floating buoys on the water surface, so the fishermen invented the fist-sized fish-shaped small lanterns. Below is a small round small driftwood with lanterns made of fish skin. There is a small, slender candle in it. Connect the fish skin lanterns and buoys together, light the candles, and put down the hooks in the bait to make it clear whether the fish under the water has a hook.

As long as the fish bites the hook, like the red-backed squid, the fish-shaped small lantern will be pulled under the water. The fishermen will know that the fish is hooked. The small candle is waterproof and can be reused as long as it is burned out.

"You don't have to look at it. The red-backed squid that was just caught is so big. The fish below has been scared away. I have to wait for a while."Welikro said that the sauce was applied to the long-tailed fish.

Claude shook his head, so that the sauce covered the deliciousness of the long-tailed fish itself. It was awful, but it was better to take a fish to bake. Pick up the blueberry wine and take a sip, listen to Welikro and say, "Give me some more."

So he poured a cup and handed it over. Welikro sipped it and screamed back: "Sweet, boring, this is the wine that the girls drink. Eyke, take the barrel of rye I bought to solve the thirst. ”

Claude has no choice but to laugh. This blueberry wine is something Borkal has to buy. After the last time I had a headache for the Ganlan in Egret, Borkal learned the lesson and didn't dare to buy the spirits. But he said that his father's friend came to the house some time ago, and his father took it out. Blueberry wine. He stole a half cup, tastes very good, a bit sweet, the wine is not heavy and not on the head, so this time you have to buy this blueberry wine to drink enough.

Among the four partners, Borkal is the most addicted. Everyone is only sixteen years old. At this age, at home, they don’t dare to drink lightly. At most, they drink a glass of ale. However, four people have also stolen alcohol at home. The more they are banned by the family, the more they want to try. This may be the rebellious mentality of the teenager.

Claude is a transmigrator and now has the ability to do it. Welikro and Eriksson have a drink, but they are not very interested in wine. With the exception of Borkal, he is the lightest, but he likes to drink the most, and he is drunk when he drinks. This will be the bottle of blueberry fruit wine will drink more than half, but his eyes have been blurred, it seems that staying will fall back and sleep.

Eriksson licked five chicken wings in one breath and finally satisfied his appetite. Put the bucket of rye in the cabin to open the lid, and he poured a large glass for the three.

Rye is a bit bitter, but it is very refreshing in your mouth, and it is really a good thirst. Welikro poured two cups at a time. And Eriksson took out a small bag from the cabin where he put things and said, "I almost forgot this good thing."

"Claude, come and try."

Claude saw that Eriksson had a small, ball-sized ball in the paper bag in front of him.

"What is this?"

"You taste it."Eriksson just doesn't say it.

Kneeling in one's mouth, Claude glanced, isn't this the previous maltose? The hawkers dressed in the impression of the peasants are carrying bamboo poles at the entrance of the school. There is a large piece of maltose on the bamboo pole. How much you want to buy will give you a knockdown. When I was young, I liked it. When I grow up, I don’t like it very much. This stuff has some sticky teeth…

"This, this is maltose…"Claude hesitated to say that he didn't remember whether the name was still called in the world, but it seemed that Eriksson had mentioned it last time, but he didn't pay attention.

"Well, the maltose passed by Hurian."Seeing Claude recognizes Eriksson and doesn't mind, handing the paper bag to Welikro and letting him take it again: "Isn't the last time I said that Julian is coming back to open the grocery store? I went to school this afternoon to look at it, just as he sold this maltose, I bought it. One piece of fennie, here twenty pieces took me two sunar. But Hurian’s return is very good. He used to go to the king and we didn’t have maltose to eat. ”

Claude is a bit curious: "What is your identity like this Hurian?"

Eriksson understood what he asked and nodded. "He is a civilian, but he is a blind man, and this year he is also fifty years old."

It turned out to be a scorpion, and the age is also more than 50. No wonder I can go to Wang Du. The general civilian has no legitimate reason to not be able to leave the country of origin. This is the most stringent for the men between the ages of 18 and 40. Like Whitestag town, more and more poor people are coming to settle in, most of them are landless farmers and bankrupt craftsmen in the three southwestern counties.

Whitestag town is also belonging to the three southwestern counties. They are the farthest area to reach the Whitestag town. It is not allowed to go to the east to go to the jurisdiction of the three southwestern counties. Claude didn't know it before, but after listening to his father's future arrangements, King Kong understood that Kingdom had a quota for the recruitment of various regions during the war. These civilian men were all cannon fodders, so they could not be allowed to flow to them. Go somewhere else to prevent them from escaping from military service.

"Hurrian is still good when he was young. I heard that it was 30 years ago. Our Kingdom first scored the Kingdom of Nasri, and Hurian also received a call. At that time, he was riding on the raft, and he was shocked and fell off the raft. His foot was broken by the ox cart next to him. After he was cured, he became a scorpion. ”

Eriksson smiled and said: "Although he escaped from military service, he couldn't avoid the war between Kingdom and Kingdom of Nasri for the second time. It was our Kingdom's battle against Duchy of Berkeley. He was blind. So I didn't have to be a soldier, but I was hired as a driver. I drove the carriage to Duchy of Berkeley and returned to work as a dealer one year later.

About four years ago, he said that he would go to Wang to see if he might settle there, so he went to the town office to open a road and proof of identity. However, this time I came back to see him and there was no change. I was estimated that Wang did not earn much money and had to come back. If you are too old, you can't go around and be a trader. This is the plan to open a grocery store at home. I went to see it. Many of his gadgets are said to have come from Wangdu. You have to buy something for your brother and sister in the future. You can go to him to see…"

"Well, I will go see it when I have time."Claude replied casually: "Do you want something?"

I don't need itBelchWelikro shook her head and said, "I am already full. Let's put it first. Maybe we will be hungry later and we will have some supper."

Eriksson picked up the fishing rod that Welikro had just placed on the side of the ship and said, "I don't want to eat anymore. Now we are still fishing seriously."

Borkal was drunk by a bottle of blueberry wine, and he was lying on the bow and snoring. Claude used to clean up the plates and bottles around him, and covered him with a blanket to let him sleep.

Three people started fishing at night, and had to say that Eriksson was looking for a very good place. The fish were fishing fast, and there were no other night fishing boats around. In just two hours, four fishing rods caught fifty. Not a single lake fish, the three people are busy enough.

It was hard to rest, the fish was not so easy to hook, and there was a bite in ten minutes. Eriksson said, take a break, it should be almost the same, and you will change the place again. Now you have to get some hot stuff on your stomach.

Claude was too lazy to get a barbecue again, and took a wok directly to start cooking noodles. A large bowl of noodle soup drank, not only the stomach is comfortable, the whole body feels warm.

Welikro lazily picked up the last fishing rod that was still fishing. The hook was a lake fish that struggled and struggled: "Let's go to the fence. It can be up for a long time. One network will pull again tomorrow morning. Now that the candles in the small fish lanterns are running out, we have four or five left, and we have a fishing rod to play at night. If you fish for the night, then the four fishing rods will be used in less than half an hour. ”

Eriksson thought and nodded and agreed: "Well, just follow what you said. I have been tired for a long time in the night fishing. I also slept for a while after the net."

Claude then packed up the decking utensils and returned the ingredients to the cabin. The three men sailed to the fence.

However, there are not many harvests in the fence. This time there are only a dozen fish. Claude thinks it's not as busy as night fishing.

It’s very tiring to get out of the net. When I’m done, Eriksson is leaning against the side of the ship and looking at the bow of the ship’s snoring, Borkal hates, really wants to kick this guy off the boat, and he can’t help. on!
