Chapter 127 This is a sign that life is prosperous
Zhao Dahai returned home, and all the fish in the bucket were poured into the fish pond. In two days, yellow snapper weighing more than 100 kilograms was swimming around. It was a bit spectacular. Copy the net. I picked up a few dead ones and cooked dinner with just one more dish. I caught a lot of fish, which was a luxury. I had to sell the fish tomorrow.
Zhao Dahai walked into the main room and did not see his grandma Zhong Cuihua. She might be in the vegetable garden behind the house. When he walked over, he saw that she was watering the vegetable field.
“Grandma.”
Zhao Dahai shouted.
Xiao Naihei lay down at the door of the vegetable garden, raised his head and took a look, then lay down again.
Zhao Dahai is really convinced. The dog that Ding Xiaoxiang gave him is really amazing. Other puppies must be running around like wild horses. The key to Xiao Naihei's not running around is to keep guard. At the door of the vegetable garden.
Zhong Cuihua saw Zhao Dahai squatting and scratching Xiao Naihei's head, and smiled and said that this dog is really good.
Zhao Dahai teased Xiao Naihei for a while, then walked into the garden and saw that the vegetables were almost watered. He didn’t need his own help. He would have to cook and pick some vegetables later.
“Grandma!”
"This vegetable garden is well planted!"
"No need to buy vegetables every day!"
Zhao Dahai picked the vegetables for dinner and a lot of old green leaves and threw them to the chicken In the pen, I haven’t seen them for a few days. They are growing very fast. The roosters and pullets already weigh more than one kilogram. The ones that grow fast must weigh one and a half kilograms.
“Yeah.”
“I can’t finish this dish.”
"Pick some and send them to your second grandfather's house tomorrow."
Zhong Cuihua came over after watering the vegetables and watched the chickens in the chicken coop pecking at the vegetables.
Zhao Dahai nodded and made a note of this matter. He will not go to sea tomorrow. He will sell fish in the town. He got up early in the morning and picked vegetables and sent them over.
Zhong Cuihua remembered something, walked to the corner behind the house, and pointed upward.
Zhao Dahai looked up and found that there was a crack somewhere. It had been raining for a few days and water had seeped into the house. After a few days of sunshine and dry weather, Zhao Dahai asked someone to repair it.
"Grandma!"
"In a few years, our family will build a small building."
Zhao Dahai patted the wall of the house. It was built by his father. The wind is strong at the seaside. In addition, the air is humid, salty, and highly corrosive. Over the past twenty years, the house will have some problems.
“Okay!”
“The land next to it belongs to our family. The house will be built on it.”
"Let's work more. Save some money and build a building, just in time for you to marry a wife."
Zhong Cuihua pointed to the open space next to the house.
“Okay!”
“At least build seven or eight floors together.”
“You live on one floor, and the great-great-grandchildren each live on one floor!”< br>
Zhao Dahai looked at it. There was a platform in front and a mountain in the back. It was a good place. The space for building a house was roughly estimated to be two hundred square meters. Building a building would be beautiful but it would definitely cost money. It would cost hundreds of thousands or even more than a million.
Built a building and marry Ding Xiaoxiang?
Zhao Dahai thinks about it, this is really good.
The sun sets.
The sky after the rain is very clean, high and far away. The rays of sunlight come over and everything is covered with a layer of golden light.
Zhao Dahai walked home with his grandmother Zhong Cuihua. There are vegetables in the vegetable garden, the chickens in the chicken coop are growing up, and I have planted lychees and longans. I can make money by going fishing, and my family is getting more and more prosperous.
The moon is at the zenith.
Zhao Dahai went out after dinner and took a flashlight and walked to the dock. When he came back in the afternoon, there were too many fish and he was worried that they would squeeze into the live cabin and die. He went home early. The fishing boat was not cleaned and he had to go to town early tomorrow morning. Selling fish here, all work needs to be done tonight.
Zhao Dahai came out late, got on the fishing boat, cleaned up his things, especially the fishing rods, arranged them, locked them in the cabin, and took a bucket with water to rinse them.
Huh?
What's this?
Ox eye snail?
When Zhao Dahai was carrying water, he found a dozen snails crawling on the cement wall of the small pier. They were all quite large. He stretched out his hand, but they couldn't reach them. He pulled them with the net and pulled them all away. When I came back and took it out, I saw that it was indeed a bull's eye snail. This is a snail that looks a bit like a cow's eye and can often be seen on seaside reefs. What's going on?
Why are there so many bull-eye snails?
Zhao Dahai was a little strange. The bull's eye snail is indeed not a rare thing, and it is not expensive. The purchase price is about ten yuan, but it is usually only found in the crevices of the reef. You can occasionally see one, but it is not easy to take it out. It's really strange that there are more than a dozen of them now.
Could it be related to the fact that it has been raining these past few days?
Rain will have a huge impact on the oxygen content in the seawater. In addition, the salinity of the seawater will change dramatically, especially if the dock is on the shore, the impact will be greater.
It is very likely that the bull-eye snails crawled out of the cracks in the rocks and gathered together for this reason.
Zhao Dahai shined his flashlight on other parts of the pier. There were bull-eye snails crawling in many places. There were as few as five or six and as many as twenty. He originally planned to go home and sleep after cleaning the fishing boat. At this time, without saying anything, he drove the fishing boat around the pier. In less than half an hour, he picked up more than ten kilograms and put them in the live cabin to raise.
Zhao Dahai parked the fishing boat, changed into liberation shoes, took a few net bags and a net, walked quickly along the beach to the reef area on the pier.
With so many bulleye snails at the pier, there must be more in the reef area. It's not easy to catch snails like this in normal times, but if you have such a rare opportunity, you must not let it go.
Zhao Dahai is careful. The reef is soaked in sea water all year round and is very slippery. It has rained continuously in the past few days and now it is night again. He has to be very energetic. He just climbed up the reef and took a few steps. He immediately saw Three bull-eye snails were sucked onto the stone. There was a stone crack less than five centimeters wide on the side. I shined a flashlight inside and found that two of them had not crawled out from a depth of about twenty centimeters. I stretched out my hand. If you can't reach it, you can only give up. The three that climbed out picked it up and continued to move forward.
The more Zhao Dahai picked up, the more surprised Zhao Dahai became. The rocks that were usually not hit by the waves were dry and there were no living things. However, after the heavy rain, as long as there were cracks in the rocks, there were at least two or three. There were as many as ten or eight, all of which were bull's-eye snails of considerable size. After walking around, a mesh bag was filled to about seventy-eight percent, weighing seventy or eighty kilograms.
Zhao Dahai changed a mesh bag and continued, looking for places where there is usually no water. Next, he looked for places where waves can usually find, especially the waterline. There were more bull-eye snails and bigger ones. It's so big, it takes two big mesh bags to pick it up once.
Zhao Dahai waited for more than half an hour and picked it up again. It was only about ten kilograms. He knew that the snails that would crawl out of the reef were all about the same, and the ones that didn't crawl out were unlikely to crawl out.
Zhao Dahai spent a lot of effort, carrying, hugging and dragging, and finally managed to get three large net bags of bull's-eye snails back to the dock. Together they weighed more than two hundred kilograms. Without a pole, they couldn't carry them. Go back, move onto the fishing boat, soak in the live cabin, and go home immediately.
Zhong Cuihua heard the sound and walked out of the main room. When she saw Zhao Dahai was dirty, she immediately asked what was going on. She was relieved when she found out that he was picking up ox-eye snails.
Zhao Dahai rode his motorcycle back to the pier. He pulled all the oxeye snails back and put them in a cool place in the corner. He took something to block the dew. He will sell the snails tomorrow morning. There is no need to soak them in sea water to raise them. Make sure it is a little wet, especially if it is not exposed to fresh water. It will be fine for a few days or even ten days and a half, so there is no need to waste any effort.
Six o'clock.
Zhao Dahai got up, walked out of the yard, took two big buckets, and started to work. He fished out the fish from the fish pond. One bucket was filled with fish that were less than five taels, and those with more than five taels were put in the other bucket. The motorcycle was pushed out The yard was propped up at the door, and the two large buckets containing fish were placed on the shelves, hanging on both sides of the back seat. Next were the oxeye snails. The three mesh bags were replaced by two of the same size, which were piled directly on the back seat. superior.
Zhao Dahai went to Zhao Shi's house, put down a hanging bag of vegetables and picked out three kilograms of cow's eye snails, chatted for a while and hurried to the town to sell fish.
"Da Dahai is really hard-working!"
"Everyone else sleeps at home on rainy days. He went out to sea to fish. He made money."
Huang Huangtao stood at the door and kept watching. He watched Zhao Dahai's motorcycle go away before turning back to the yard.
"The key is to have a brain."
Zhao Shi took a puff of waterpipe that was always around him. He just took a look at the fish in the bucket, which weighed no less than a hundred kilograms. The bull's-eye snail in the net bag weighed two hundred kilograms, and he couldn't hold it down. All together it would cost at least four to five thousand yuan.
There are fewer people going fishing in Langtou Village and other surrounding villages? Are there fewer people fishing? Earning so much money in a few days does not require hard work.
Zhao Shi has been fishing all his life and knows that it is very difficult to catch so many fish in the nearby waters in two or three days.
“It rained continuously and snails crawled out. No one in the village knew it, but no one picked them up, which was a benefit to the sea.”
Huang Jintao took a bamboo basket and poured out the oxeye snails. They were all big and not worth much. It was all about your heart. At the same time, it was precisely because they were not very valuable that he could pick them up at the beach, so he accepted the valuable fish, shrimps and crabs. They all have to be sold for money. After a while, they are washed and boiled in some water. There is a lot of meat. Pick them out and dip them in some soy sauce. It is very delicious. The vegetables are fried again and it is enough for two people.
“Dahai is a diligent kid.”
……
“You can make money.”
……
"Life is getting better and better."
......
"In two or three years, save enough money, marry a wife, and have a few children, and life will become more and more prosperous as time goes by. ?”
……
Zhao Shi smoked a hookah, listened to Huang Jintao’s muttering, and nodded, that’s it.
