Chapter 255 A great harvest
After eating, everyone gathered in groups of three or four to chat.
Some are still betting on how much they can gain today.
At this time, Liu Jingxue was using her spiritual sense to explore underwater to see how many fish were caught in the fishing net.
This fish hunter is quite capable. Within the range that her spiritual sense can detect, there are indeed quite a few fish in the area covered by the fishing net.
Just when everyone was chatting excitedly, the fish boss who was sitting by the fire and resting came out.
After being reminded by the people around them, those who were chatting happily stopped chatting and looked over one by one.
At this time, everyone's attention was focused on Yubaotou.
The fish leader gave an order, "Draw in the net."
The owners of the horses borrowed by the captain hurriedly tied the horses to the capstan and cracked the whip three times.
"Snap! Snap! Snap!" After three crisp sounds, the horse was brought to the capstan and started to turn.
As the winch turned, the rope dragging the fishing net was slowly retracted, and everyone stared at the outlet of the net.
As the fishing net was dragged out of the water, everyone began to get nervous.
Liu Jingxue had used her spiritual sense to observe before and found that the fishing net in the front did not catch any fish. It only served to surround the fish and prevent them from escaping.
Only at the very end of the fishing net is there a net bag, which is used to catch fish.
The waiting time seemed particularly long. As more and more fishing nets came out of the water, everyone's heart was in their throat.
When the first fish appeared in the fishing net, someone in the crowd cried out in surprise.
"Fish are out, fish are out."
Then the sound stopped abruptly.
With the appearance of the first fish, the second and the third followed, until the entire fishing net was out of water and a large number of fish were caught in the net.
Looking at the fishing nets full of fish, the people watching on the ice cheered one after another.
"Great harvest, great harvest."
The joy of harvest filled everyone's hearts and everyone's face was filled with smiles.
Infected by this cheerful atmosphere, Liu Jingxue couldn't help but cheer with everyone.
The moment the fish came out of the water, due to the low temperature, it quickly lost the ability to move and lay there straight.
At this time, the captain's slightly cheerful voice sounded, "Okay, everyone, stop standing there and quickly take the fish off the net.
Weigh it quickly and divide it into two.
Half was sent to the commune, and the other half was transported back to the production team."
The two tractors borrowed by the team leader from the commune were already in place, and even the scales were brought along.
This river was not exclusive to the production team, but was shared by four production teams.
Every time you go fishing, half of the harvest must be handed over to the commune, and the rest must be distributed among yourself, otherwise you would be fleecing socialism.
The work of unloading and weighing the fish was already done by others, so there was no need for Liu Jingxue to intervene.
There were so many grown men present, how could it be the turn of a little girl like her to intervene?
Besides, everyone saw how much effort she put in digging the ice cave.
So she went closer to the captain and watched the fun.
Looking at the large pile of fish that had been unloaded, Liu Jingxue asked, "Captain, is our catch this time considered a big one?"
"It's only once every four years that you get to be the first, so naturally you'll reap the most.
But compared with the previous one, this time we gained the most.
I just estimated it by eye and it’s about 6 kilograms.
Even if we give half of it to the public, our production team can still keep 3 kilograms.”
Liu Jingxue’s contribution is certainly indispensable to the achievement of so many results.
After the fishing net was spread out, she walked along the ice caves on both sides and used her spiritual sense to drive the fish that were originally outside the coverage of the fishing net into the coverage of the fishing net.
Of course, she didn't dare to go too far, after all, there were three more production teams to go fishing in the winter.
Although this river is connected to a large lake and there is no shortage of fish, it is not certain that the fish will be able to swim over in a short period of time.
"We have caught so many this time. The three production teams behind us won't be empty-handed, right?" a villager nearby said with some gloating.
"How could it be the air force? Don't you see how big the river is?
Our team’s fishing nets didn’t even cover a quarter of the area.”
Liu Jingxue played dumb and said nothing.
There was no way she could let anyone know that, although the fishing net didn't cover them, she had used her spiritual sense to help the team cheat.
"In fact, it would be better if the commune could allow us to make the fishing nets bigger, so that we can catch more fish each time."
“No, the fishing net cannot be made any bigger.
Don’t you think about the fact that it’s your turn to be the first one only once every four years?
If several production teams make their fishing nets bigger, they will become as big as the entire river.
In the first year, I gained a lot, but what about the other three years? I didn’t gain much.
You think the leaders of the commune are just sitting there doing nothing and have already considered these things. "
After the final weighing, the total harvest of this winter fishing was 6 kilograms, with the commune and production team each taking 4 kilograms.
The two tractors first delivered the fish from the commune, and then helped the Red Star Production Brigade transport the fish back.
The snow was so deep that it was really difficult to bring back tens of thousands of kilograms of fish by manpower.
Of course, this tractor is not free to use, the production team has to pay for the fuel.
As for the commune, the commune will be responsible for it.
After paying the fees for renting the horses and the fish head on the spot, the captain asked Ge Dazhuang to lead the men to send the fish head back safely.
The captain left some people behind to load the fish onto the truck, and sent others back with the sleds to drag the nets, tools, and some of the fish.
Those who go back first are also responsible for notifying each family to go to the cafeteria to wait for the fish to be distributed.
"Captain, are we going to kill all the fish and eat from the big pot today?" a villager asked.
“I just had it a while ago, and the weather was too cold, so I won’t do it this time.
After the fish are distributed, each family kills the fish on their own.
When you go back and notify them, let me know."
The captain quickly added, "When you go back, tell Secretary Xu and Li Huiji about your harvest and ask them to quickly calculate how much fish each family can get.
As for those who came to participate in the winter fishing today, they were also asked to calculate the extra fish they would share.
When the fish are brought back, we won’t have to wait any longer and can just divide the fish.”
It was a little after three in the morning this morning, and now it’s one in the afternoon. I have been standing here enjoying the breeze. I have to organize the fish distribution when I go back.
What the captain wants most now is to distribute the fish quickly and go home to lie on the kang, but he has no intention of making a big pot meal.
There was nothing for her to do there, so Liu Jingxue followed the villagers back.
After returning, she hurried back to the space and soaked in hot water for twenty minutes.
Around four o'clock in the afternoon, a gong sounded outside. Liu Jingxue knew that this was a notification for everyone to divide the fish.
The villagers who had been notified long ago did not delay and hurried to the canteen.
Liu Jingxue didn't want to get her clothes dirty, so she carried her load and went out.
The accounts had been calculated long ago, so the fish were divided up quickly. Liu Jingxue was paid for her winter catch, plus the pay for her head of fish, for a total of 100 kilograms of fish.
The weather was too cold, so Liu Jingxue didn't stay there for long. She picked up the fish that belonged to her and went home.
After returning home, she stored the fish in the space warehouse.
