Since there have been no net fishing in recent years, there have been significantly more fish in the reservoir. After throwing down three earth firecrackers, almost all the fish in the water area within a radius of fifty or sixty meters were shocked to the surface. Even if the fat man closed his eyes and used a net to catch it, the net was not lost.

"Wow...Wow..."

Just when the fat man was so busy that he wanted to have two more hands, a barking came from the village in the distance, and then the light of several flashlights lit up with the sound of people talking. It was obvious that the blasting sound that was not very loud just now still alarmed the village.

"Fatty, someone is here. Come back quickly. Don't want the remaining fish..."

Seeing this situation, Sanpao quickly lowered his voice and shouted. He knew that in recent years, he was no longer as usual. If he was caught, fines would be a trivial matter and might be locked up for several years.

"It's okay, they'll have to come here for a while..."

The fat man was talking, but his hands were not idle. He used a copy net to catch a big carp weighing seven or eight pounds on the boat, and then he rowed to the shore where Fang Yi and the others were.

"Next..." The fat man rowed the boat to the shore and handed the fish basket on his first. Judging from his posture of carrying the fish basket with both hands, the weight of a basket would probably not be lighter.

"Fatty, this basket is over 100 kilograms. If you don't have such a lot of stuff, you won't be afraid that we can take it back?" Sanpao's strength is not as small as the fat man. As soon as his hands took the basket, his body suddenly fell. If he hadn't reacted quickly, he would have even flashed his waist.

In the past, when they threw firecrackers or went down the net to catch fish, they would put their bicycles on the shore, fished up and took them away, but today, the brothers and others came over, and Sanpao didn't have that much effort to get the fish back.

"I'll do it, let's go quickly..." Fang Yi reached out and took the fish basket. Compared to the firewood that he had to chop on the mountain every day, the weight of these fish was really nothing. As soon as he tried his best, he picked up the two fish baskets.

"Brother Yi has never done anything stealing at first sight. What are you afraid of..." The fat man jumped onto the shore from the boat, looked at the place with the lights on, and said, "Let's go a few more steps and just get apart from them. Don't worry, even if you catch it, it's okay..."

There is a large corn field between the village and the reservoir. At this moment, the corn poles have grown to half a person's height and are slightly shorter. Not to mention three people, even thirty people are hidden inside.

The fat man led the way in front, and it was indeed easy to bypass the people who came to check the movement. After more than ten minutes, the three of them returned to Sanpao's home.

"Hehe, you two sit down, I'll go and cook a big carp first, let you brothers taste my skills..." Before I could get into the house, the fat man picked up the largest carp from the basket. This carp was a little old, and the scales at the tail had turned red.

"Fatty, wait first, you'd better hide a basket of fish in the house..." Sanpao reached out and stopped the fat man.

"Why are you hiding it?" The fat man was stunned for a moment and said, "It's hot this day. After I finish eating, I will marinate it with salt, otherwise it will only be broken the day after tomorrow..."

Even if Fang Yi and others let go of their stomachs, they would not be able to finish the fish within ten days and half a month. The fat man had already planned to leave a few fresh ones to eat on the same day. The rest were all dried with salt and made into pickled fish. They would not break even if they were hung in the house for a summer.

"Make a shit!" Sanpao curled his lips and said angrily: "Fatty, can we make a bet? It takes less than half an hour to come..."

"Oh, why did I forget this..." The fat man slapped his forehead, smiled bitterly, and said, "Okay, this basket is regarded as a filial piety to them. I will hide this basket first, so that they can take it away..."

"Peng Sanjun, you guy came out for me..."

Wei Dahu came faster than what Peng Sanjun said. Before ten minutes, Wei Dahu's shouts sounded outside the yard, and then the yard door made of wooden boards was kicked open.

"Oh, Uncle Wei, why are you here in the middle of the night?" As soon as Sanpao went out, the beams of three or four flashlights hit his face and covered his eyes with his hands. Sanpao saw that there was a uniform among the visitor, and his face changed.

"Don't talk nonsense to me, did you run to the edge of the reservoir to fry fish?" Wei Dahu snorted coldly, pushed away the three cannons and walked into the main hall.

"Uncle San, I... we didn't fry fish, we went fishing..." Sanpao turned around and followed in. He had no hope of hiding the fishy smell of the yard.

"Brother Six, I almost recognized you when you put on this uniform..." After entering the room, Sanpao discovered that the man in his uniform was the fat man's cousin. He immediately let go of his heart, took out a cigarette with a smile, and put one on him and Wei Dahu each.

"Sanpao, you kid are all soldiers. You don't even have to stop when you come back. Don't you know if you don't let the fish fry?" Brother Six took the cigarette and said angrily: "I'll listen to my third uncle. He wants to hand it over to the police station. None of you can escape..."

"Sixth brother, I really went fishing. Maybe it was someone else's bombing?" Although Wei Dahu's son was also one of the main culprits, he couldn't resist Wei Dahu's death. So he was not caught anyway, so Sanpao would never admit it.

"I won't let you open the mountain. Except for your family, who has that thing?" Brother Six reached out and slapped Sanpao on the back of the head. He was also a little annoyed, because he was on duty today. If the matter was exposed, the clothes of the joint defense team would be stripped off.

"Huazi, get out of here..." Wei Dahu ignored Sanpao and shouted at the inner room. He knew his son's nature. It would be strange if he didn't have him. Maybe his son would be the mastermind.

"Dad, brother, fourth uncle..."

Before Wei Dahu finished speaking, the fat man came out of the inner room. As soon as he saw the few people he saw were relieved. Apart from his father and cousin, the remaining person was his fourth uncle. The fat man didn't believe that they would send him to the police station.

"You little brat, don't do serious things. You run fast with this evil way..." Seeing his son, Wei Dahu was so angry that he was frying fish in his family in the early years, but now he is not allowed. As the village chief, he still has to set an example.

"Dad, this isn't Fang Yi going down the mountain, let's get some fish for him..."

The house was full of family members, and the fat man was not afraid. He said with a smile: "I got seventy or eighty kilograms. We will leave one, and you will take away the others. What's wrong with it, the fish in this reservoir are getting fatter and fatter..."

"Uncle Wei, this..."

When the fat man mentioned his name, Fang Yi was embarrassed to hide in the house. He scratched his head and walked out, saying, "Uncle Wei, I've caused you trouble. I want... Otherwise, we'll buy these fish. Master has left me some money..."

"Come on, your master has bought wine even if he has money. How much can he keep for you?"

Wei Dahu waved his hand, but when he saw Fang Yi, his tone also eased. After all, everyone in the village had inherited the affection of the old Taoist priest. When the old Taoist priest treated people, he had even confiscated herbs.

"Well, leave...more than a hundred..."

Wei Dahu's words made Fang Yi even more embarrassed. As Wei Dahu said, the old Taoist priest almost had no alcohol in every meal. If the monkey didn't drink enough wine, he went to the foot of the mountain to buy wine, and left Fang Yi with more than 100 yuan behind him.

"Fang Yi, I think you should do something serious..."

Wei Dahu sat on the chair, thought for a while, looked at his son and said, "Let's do this, I'll go back and call your second uncle later. You three guys will go to the city tomorrow, and do it honestly on your second uncle's construction site. If you dare to run away, I will break your legs when you come back..."

In the past, it was not a big deal to go to the reservoir to fry a fish, but I was caught tightly this year. Two people were sentenced to intercept the water from the reservoir in Liujia Village next to me last year. Wei Dahu was really afraid that this brother three would stay in the village to fry a fish every now and then, and he would not be able to save them.

"Go to work on the construction site?" After hearing his father's words, the fat man's neck couldn't help but get tampered. He would rather grow crops at home than do that job.

"Uncle Wei, okay, go, we'll go tomorrow..." Before the fat man could speak, Sanpao poked the fat man with his elbow from behind and said, "Uncle Wei, please leave us a phone number. We will go to the city to find the second uncle tomorrow morning..."

"We are all going to join the army. Look how sensible the three armies are..." Hearing Peng Sanjun's words, Wei Dahu nodded, and after taking a knock on his son's head, he picked up the basket of fish that the fat man had just taken out.

"It's really not easy, Xiao Liu, come and help..." Although Wei Dahu was in his prime, this basket of fish was seventy or eighty kilograms. Although he could pick up one hand, he couldn't walk anymore.

"Uncle Wei, I'll take you to the door..." Peng Sanjun smiled and sent Wei Dahu and his men to the gate of the courtyard with a look of wild. After the few people walked away, he closed the gate and returned to the room.

"Sanpao, you want to go to the construction site, I won't go anyway..." As soon as Peng Sanjun entered the house, he saw the fat man's gloomy face that could drip into water.

"Who said he was going to the construction site?"

"Didn't you agree just now?"

"If I don't agree, can Uncle Wei spare you?"

Sanpao said with a smirk, "Let's agree first. When I go back to the city, I will find a way. I will definitely find a job for me to make money and face. But let's talk about it, I have no money on me, so you have to pay for the travel expenses..."

"Look at your promising prospect..." The fat man pointed to the inner room and said, "There are two old turtles in the basket. I went back to the city and found a place to sell it. It's enough for our brothers to spend some time in the city..."

Fried fish is different from fishing in the net. If a firecracker is thrown down, it can blow four or five meters deep water and mud out of the water for several meters. Therefore, it is not uncommon to collapse a few old turtles at the bottom of the water. The two turtles that the fat man caught were almost three pounds each, and it can be sold for at least one or two thousand yuan in the city.

PS: When I was a child, my hometown was full of peach blossoms, and the river water was clear. I had nothing to do and I went to fry fish and corn on the cobs with my brothers. Now when I go back, the mountains are bald, the river is smelly, the ground is almost gone, and it is full of devastation!
