The boy saw a shocking phenomenon, and saw hundreds of hooks biting a hairtail, and the tails of those hairtails biting one head, and some even biting three or four heads. These hairtails biting their tails, and they pulled them a lot! The boy then realized why his grandfather asked him to wait for a stick of incense.

"It's really greedy."

After exhausting the efforts of the two of them, they pulled the hairtail fish onto the deck exhausted. The hairtail fish were jumping around on the deck very actively, making a sound of slapping.

"My God, I'll say at least five or six hundred kilograms. This head is so big! It's really a sperm." The old man grabbed a hairtail, which weighed at least five or six kilograms.

The boy also grabbed a hairtail and looked at it carefully in front of him, very curious about the living hairtail.

"Good grandson, stop looking. Let's hurry up and catch a few more times. Today's luck is really here. We actually met such a large group. As long as we have the strength today, it will be fine to get 10,000 pounds."

"Ten thousand pounds! How much money can you sell?" The young man looked at the little star, and then asked worriedly: "Can our boat be able to hold it?"

"Barring nonsense, such a large ship can't hold ten thousand kilograms of fish? The shipyard's adults said that it's not a problem to hold 50,000 kilograms, and at most it can't exceed 80,000 kilograms, otherwise it will be easily overturned by the waves. These days it's a fish flood. Take the time to catch a handful of fish, and it won't be so easy to catch in the future." The old man urged repeatedly.

The old and the young fought hard in this bright morning light and kept scattering hooks. This time they learned their lesson and did not let them go for a long time. Most of them bite the hairtail and pulled it up immediately. In addition, they used the noose at the stern of the boat, so it was not very laborious to lift it.

"The hook net given by the General is easy to use! It saves effort when pulling it." The old man couldn't help but praise the hook designed by the Academy of Sciences again.

From morning to dusk, the number of hairtail fish they caught far exceeded the forecast, and it looked more than 40,000 to 50,000 kilograms.

The grandfather and grandson drove back to the port exhausted. When they returned to the port, the sky had completely dimmed, but the fish market in Qingdao Port was still lively.

Many fishermen are moving seafood to the docks, while some merchants are choosing seafood and bargaining from time to time.

Then two tax-collecting civil servants came up to say hello. When the old man saw it, he quickly asked the two tax officials to board the boat to check. The tax officials were not surprised to see that the grandfather and grandson caught so many hairtails. Today, the fish flood came, and many fishermen caught tens of thousands of pounds.

The tax officer directed the workers on the dock to transport them. The workers moved the hairtail from the dock and then began to weigh them.

"Fifty-three,200 kilograms, the amount to be paid is 42,560 kilograms, and there are still 10,614 kilograms left. These hairtails cost three cents per kilogram, which means..." The tax officer used the real calculation and calculated it in a burst of light, "Thirty-one, nine kilograms and two cents of silver!"

"Thirty-one taels!" Both grandparents and grandsons were stunned by the income of the day. They had never thought that they could earn thirty-one taels of silver in a day.

However, the purchase price of hairtail is extremely low, with only 3 copper plates per catty and 20 copper plates per catty of pork.

In fact, the price of hairtail has reached more than 30 copper plates per catty on the market, mainly because the fishery is not developed enough, and fisheries in many places are affected by the sea ban.

These seafood are first collected by the tax authorities, and then processed and sold locally in Qingdao Port.

After receiving the silver liang, the grandfather and grandson were a little unbelievable! He actually earned more than thirty taels a day, which was much higher than the income from being a soldier.

After getting these seafood, they were immediately sent to a processing station not far away. More than 3,000 women were still busy killing fish.

Some of these seafood are cooked and marinated with salt, while others are taken out and sold to merchants who come to Qingdao Port.
