Chapter 366 Harvest
Ah Zheng and Xiao Xiao took turns to get into the water again, which is equivalent to one person getting into the water three times.
There was no harvest the previous time, but Ah Zheng caught two sea cucumbers. In the next two times, the harvest of both of them was quite good, and the net bags were filled to the brim. Of course, abalone accounted for the most.
Ye Yaodong waited for them to come up and went down again. Of course, the goods he bought belonged to himself.
Ah Zheng looked at the goods in their baskets, and said beamingly: "These look like they should weigh thirty catties, and there are also a few sea cucumbers, and the little green dragon."
"I didn't expect so many abalones down there. This place is really a treasure."
Ah Zheng also rubbed his hands back and forth excitedly, both of them were wet, and it didn't matter, they didn't care at all, they were just happy.
"I don't know if there are a lot of goods under the sea in other locations?"
"Who knows, if there is no need, who would dive to the bottom of the sea? There is a reason why abalone and sea cucumbers are expensive. Fortunately, Jiang Yan said that they don't necessarily grow on the bottom of the sea, and they may grow at the low tide line."
"Dongzi, tell me the truth, are you burning incense?"
"What are you burning incense? I am smoking from my ancestral grave. I am lucky. Everything will be smooth for me in the future. I will be lucky and prosperous.
"Okay, okay, shut your mouth, don't show off your achievements after studying literacy classes for a few days." Father Ye is getting dizzy when he hears him talking, and he really thinks of himself as a cultural person, bragging When it's over, start showing off again.
Xiaoxiao smiled and said: "Do you care if he burns high incense? Let's light up what we have, rest for a while, and I will go down later, anyway, it seems that the time is still early."
"You can go into the water a few more times. It doesn't mean that if the harvest is not good today, you won't come to this sea area tomorrow, so you can't go into the water, and you may not be able to go into the water in the next few days."
"Yes, yes, today, let's go into the water a few more times and catch more."
"Take a break, I'll go first later."
The two of you made a happy decision after you said something to me.
Ye Yaodong saw that they were all in high spirits, so he didn't stop them. The young man has good physical strength. Anyway, he won't be here for the next few days. He didn't want to go into the water. Let them go into the water twice more today.
He is not going to go down anymore, he has gone down three times today, take it easy, anyway, he has already gained more than he used to by himself.
It's a pity that his elder brother and second brother's boat didn't join his, otherwise he could have asked his elder brother and second brother to take turns to go into the water together and share a share of the pie.
There is no need to determine who must enter the water. If there are many people, he can make money lying down, which is more convenient. Anyway, they are all my own people, just ask again after a few days to see the situation.
This can be used as extra money by doing a little shopping in the water, which is a little better than their trawl nets, a win-win situation.
After the two of them took turns going into the water twice, they slumped on the boat and panted.
Xiaoxiao shook off the water stains on her hair, and then wiped the sea water on her face, "This diving is quite exhausting."
"The main reason is that you haven't rested for a long time. Well, don't go into the water today. You have enough fish. It's almost noon. The noodles in the pot are almost ready. After eating, go fishing for squid." Ye Yaodong directly Put away the equipment, lest they be reluctant.
Ah Zheng looked up at the sky, "It's noon so soon?"
They have been in the water all the time and don’t know what eve is on the shore. When they saw the sun high in the sky, they realized how quickly time passed in the water.
"Then divide the harvest. If the squid harvest is not much later, we will come back and continue to dig abalone hard."
"Don't be silly, or you will have all kinds of problems when you get old."
"There are still several decades, maybe we won't be able to live until then." Ah Zheng said nonchalantly.
Xiaoxiao patted him a bit, "What are you talking about, hurry up and divide the things, it seems that there is no scale..."
"Whatever, don't worry, it's the same when we get back." They are all friends, so he has nothing to worry about.
Today’s harvest looks quite a lot, it’s filled to one and a half baskets, Ye Yaodong visually estimated that the abalone alone can be divided into about 20 catties, and the small green dragon and sea cucumber can be divided into a few per person.
Xiao Xiao and Ah Zheng were so happy that their mouths reached the back of their heads. To them, these things are no less than picking up for nothing today. They are exciting and fun, and the harvest is good, perhaps even better than squid harvesting.
"Then divide the little green dragon and the sea cucumber according to the quantity first, and then divide the abalone into three equal parts after going back to the scale."
"Oh, no problem, easy to say, we are brothers and not outsiders."
"That's fine, let's wait until we get back and divide it, anyway, it won't be lost."
Several people simply ate a bowl of noodles, and after filling their stomachs, they returned to the buoys where the branches were placed.
It was just noon, and there were only a few squids scattered around the branches, not many in number. Ye Yaodong simply netted the squids together with the branches, and collected the squid eggs by the way.
He hasn’t come here for two days. There are a series of densely packed eggs hanging on the branches. He collected them one by one and put them in the bucket.
Squid eggs are salted and can be preserved for a long time.
When eating, wash them, place them in a basin one by one, add a little cooking wine and sliced ginger, and steam them in a pan. Take a bite with one, it is creamy, salty, and chewy, and it is worthy of a meal.
During this period of time, half a barrel was harvested in two or three days. The family had already marinated a lot. When Lin’s father and Lin’s mother left, Ye’s mother packed a lot for them and asked them to take them home to eat slowly. She took the rest in bottles Store in bottles and cans.
Father Ye also gave his hand and said: "It is estimated that it is really almost gone. Unfortunately, I didn't have time for the first two days, otherwise I can get a little more."
"It's nothing to be sorry about. They haven't received many goods in the past two days, so it can only be said to be so-so."
"Why did you charge your friend 1/3 in front of you? They all said to give you half."
"It's almost there, can you live with so much conscience? They are also quite dangerous underwater. I was on the shore, I didn't do anything, I just produced some equipment, and they were not the boatmen I hired, so I just took it as a help. friend."
"Then why don't you let your eldest brother and second brother go into the water, and help them?" Father Ye wanted to ask earlier, but he was embarrassed to say because both of Dongzi's friends were there.
"They're not here!" Ye Yaodong said as a matter of course.
Their boats don’t usually go with his. They all habitually stay in the sea area where Father Ye took them before. No one is with him. How can he teach him?
Father Ye thought about it, and that's true.
"Tomorrow, I will go fishing in the waters where your elder brother and second brother are staying. The brothers can also take care of them. After a while, let them come back here together, and they can take turns to fish more."
"Um."
He knew what his father was thinking.
They are all sons, and the palms and backs of their hands are full of flesh. If there is a good thing, of course I want to take advantage of my son first.
Recently, I only sleep 3 to 5 hours a day. I’m too tired. I haven’t updated it tonight. Please take time off and take a good rest. I can’t handle it anymore.
