Shi Yi actually understands the confusion of ordinary people about venomous snakes being protected.

After all, humans' fear of snakes is probably innate and written into the genetic chain by our ancestors.

The old saying goes: "If you hit a snake, you will not die, but you will be harmed by it." This fully illustrates human beings' fear and hostility towards snakes.

But from the perspective of modern ecology, snakes are actually a very important link in the ecological chain.

"If there are fewer snakes, there will be more rats in the fields." Shi Yi explained this logic from a simple perspective, "They eat food, spread plague, and are much more destructive than snake bites."

"But we can keep cats!" Li Xu, another owner of Yujiale, was a little unconvinced.

[Hua Zhiyaoyao: This big brother is right!]

[Green Grass Pond: Even if we have to leave them to eat mice, we can only protect non-venomous snakes! Venomous snakes are so scary!]

"How many mice can a cat eat?" Shi Yi shook his head, "As for protecting poisonous snakes, there is another very important factor."

"After its venom is extracted and processed, it has extremely strong pharmacological effects. It can not only stop bleeding and relieve pain, but can also fight cancer!"

Sun Kang curled his lips: "Snake venom fights cancer? Ah Yi, are you afraid that you are not fooling me?"

[Little shopkeeper Yunhetang: The anchor is right about this. Some snake venom products can also treat cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases!]

Shi Yi didn't elaborate further and turned his attention to the pond ahead.

After a period of drainage, the water level in the pond dropped little by little, and some larger fish could no longer help but jump on the water surface.

Guang Shiyi recognized grass carp, silver carp, carp, crucian carp and other species. They were all full of energy and running around.

"Ayi! You must give me that herring!" Li Xu no longer cared about whether the poisonous snake should be protected or not, and pointed at a half-meter-long herring in the pond with an excited expression.

Shi Yi looked up and visually estimated that this fish might weigh more than twenty kilograms. Compared with the ten kilograms on the market, it was considered a big fish.

What's more, this fish is still semi-wild, so putting it on the dining table is a very honorable thing for the guests.

"No problem, but as for the price, Brother Xu, you have to increase it a little." Shi Yi calculated carefully, after all, there is no need to worry about good fish because no one wants it.

Li Xu was not ambiguous at all: "No problem, the current breeding product is 8 yuan per pound, and I will give you 15 yuan for this one!"

Later, Zhou Zhikun and Sun Kang also named a few fish that were of good quality.

Because we are all village neighbors who look up and down, we don’t do any bidding tricks, everyone gets what they need.

Of course, the prices are all based on wild fish. Shi Yi did not suffer any loss.

Soon, the water in the pond dropped to only a thin layer. Shi Yi quickly stopped the water pump.

In the entire small pond, fishes big and small were struggling and jumping, splashing mud, and it was so lively.

"Dear friends, the exciting fish catching session is here!" Shi Yi put on his full swimming clothes and waded into the pond with the three bosses.

[Gem Starfish: Sure enough, handsome guys look good in anything they wear. The same rubber jacket, worn on Brother Yi, is definitely more stylish than the three next to him.]

[Moonlight over Lotus Pond: Are you sure? What about the bee clothes yesterday?]

The "plop" sound of feet stepping into the muddy water and the "plop" sound of fish hitting the water surface come and go.

Shi Yi aimed at the target and pushed down the cover made of bamboo strips: "There is a grass carp more than half a meter long here, and a big bream, who wants it?"

"I accept it!" Sun Kang took the lead in declaring his dominance.

"Okay!" Shi Yi reached down his hand from the opening at the top of the cover, grabbed it, and pulled out the grass carp.

"Yiyazi, I can't tell you, a gentle scholar, are quite strong!" Zhou Zhikun on the side was a little surprised, "How can you hold such a big fish with just one hand?"

Shi Yi hugged it with both hands and threw the fish towards Zhou Zhikun's fish truck with a smile: "Three points, hit!"

[Mercury Star: Grass Carp is probably thinking: MMP, don’t I want to lose face?]

[Gem Starfish rewarded an assault boat: My brother Yi is so handsome! His shooting posture is very standard.]

A nearly one-meter-long eel scurried past his feet. Shi Yi had quick eyes and quick hands. He bent down and reached out with his hand, and pinched its neck directly.

The eel was frightened and wrapped its long body around Shi Yi's arm. It struggled hard but could not escape its "devil's claws".

"Look, this eel is almost as thick as a mineral water bottle cap."

Shi Yi gestured in front of the camera: "The yellow on the body has turned to orange-red. This is the so-called treasure among eels, the blood eel!"

"Ayi, do you want to sell this eel?" Li Xu, who was farthest away, was a little jealous.

Shi Yi smiled and shook his head: "I'll keep this for myself to nourish my mother's energy and blood!"

[Shrimp Soldiers and Crab Generals: During the first live broadcast, the anchor said that blood eels were not unusual, but it turned out to be true!]

[Fishermen will never be in the air force: Wild ones are fine. There are so many artificially bred ones that you will doubt your life. So buddy, don’t be superstitious about this!]

[Qingqingcao: I always feel like you are hinting at something.]

Shi Yi couldn't see the barrage, but every time he caught an interesting aquatic product, he would applaud the audience.

Many viewers who like to watch fishing pits and catch fish gradually flocked in, which slightly increased Shi Yi's popularity.

But after all, Shi Yi has never done much farm work, and he also has to take care of live broadcasting. The efficiency of catching fish is still worse than that of the three old rivers and lakes.

He had only caught five or six fish, and the other three had already caught seven or eight fish that were still eye-catching in size.

Sun Kang also caught a large turtle weighing more than two kilograms, which he planned to stew and drink, but he had no intention of selling it.

In the end, only small fishes were left in the pond, which was more than a minute in size, flapping in the shallow water that was only an inch deep.

"What a mistake!" Zhou Zhikun gasped, "If I had known there were so many fish in this pond, I would have just used a net to catch them."

Shi Yi also didn't expect: "In fact, after the pond was drained the year before last, although there were a few small ones left, we didn't deliberately throw fish into it? I don't know where they came from."

Fortunately, the pond is not big, just over one cent, or about sixty or seventy square meters.

Shi Yi took the bamboo strips cover and sifted it back and forth several times before catching all the small fish in the net.

"These are not fry, but lumber fish that won't grow very big, so there's no need to release them. You can take them home and make fire-baked fish to eat." Shi Yi also explained smoothly.

With more fish, the income from selling fish will also increase.

When Shi Yi saw three people using electronic scales to weigh fish, he didn't pay much attention to it. He just took the bucket and picked up snail and clam shells inside.

"Attention, friends in the live broadcast room!" Shi Yi held a snail in one hand and struck each other. "In the past two years, snails were included in the second-level national security. So, can we still eat snails?"

[The tortoise raises its head: Are they the same as tortoises, the wild ones are protected and the farmed ones can be eaten freely?]

[Chopped Pepper Fish Head Saigao: I think so too. After all, it was reported in the news that someone was caught fishing for snails.]

Shi Yi paused for a moment, then threw the two snails into the bucket with a smile: "The answer is, it is not illegal to eat snails! Because the protected species is actually a species with the scientific name snails in Kunming Lake in southern Yunnan Province.

The snails we often call them!"

[Gem Starfish: Then why are some people sentenced for catching snails?]

"As for those who were detained for catching snails in the news, it was because they violated the fishing ban regulations in terms of time, place, or method of fishing."

Shi Yi caught several more snails: "You can't catch those in natural waters, but you can eat them freely in your own pond!"
