Compared with the sea area where coastal fishermen often go out to fish, Nanshan Island is located in a deep sea area, and it takes more than an hour to sail to the nearest inhabited island. To reach a more crowded seaside town, the fishing boat also needs to sail for at least two hours.

Although there are several small islands nearby, Nanshan Island is only less than 60 nautical miles from the open sea. In addition to the island's location far from the mainland, although the island is not small, the fresh water resources are not abundant, so that the villagers on the island have moved away one after another.

This time, Zhuang Haiyang decided to move back to Nanshan Island to live, and many villagers who moved out were a little puzzled. learned that Zhuang Haiyang even sold the house he bought in the city, and finally believed that Zhuang Haiyang was determined to go back to the island to live.

What others think, Zhuang Haiyang really doesn't care much. After the former village neighbors left Nanshan Island, the contact with each other became less and less year by year. Besides, for Zhuang Haiyang at this moment, he is no different from a lonely person.

Dive into the Zhuang Ocean at the bottom of the reef in one breath, look at the sea fish swimming by, and feel that the fish resources in this reef pit area are indeed a lot more than in the early years. In the early years, villagers cast nets into the pit every once in a while!

"Fishing has been banned for more than ten years, and there are really a lot of fish and shrimp that use the reef pit as a safe haven. It's a rat grouper! I haven't tasted this grouper for a long time, so I have time to come and catch a few rods. That eastern star spot is also good, and the wild ones are really rare. ”

Looking at the various groupers foraging at the bottom of the pit, even Zhuang Haiyang, who has excellent water properties, it is also difficult to catch this wild grouper in the water with his bare hands. When he came to the bottom of the pit, Zhuang Haiyang soon saw the seafood used to add food.

Looking along Zhuang Haiyang's line of sight, at the bottom of the pit covered with sand and human garbage, several large lobsters with bright bodies were foraging at the bottom of the pit. Compared with the difficulty of catching wild groupers, Zhuang Haiyang feels that this kind of lobster is easier to start.

Perhaps sensing the threat, the big lobster that was targeted by Zhuang Haiyang quickly catapulted into the cave of the reef pit. Fortunately, these caves are not deep, and the big lobsters that burrow into the caves are still exposed to Zhuang Haiyang's sight.

Seeing this scene, Zhuang Haiyang also smiled secretly: "Is this a lobster version of covering ears and stealing bells?"

Diving to the lobster hiding place he had chosen, Zhuang Haiyang was very careful to stretch out his hand. Just when the big lobster uses its tentacles to sense the danger around it. Just about to escape, he was directly pressed by Zhuang Haiyang in the hole**.

Pinching the back shell of the lobster, Zhuang Haiyang turned the shrimp body and looked at it and nodded secretly: "Not bad! This amount should be about three catties, take it and dip it in some hoisin sauce, it should taste good!"

Ignoring the other frightened lobsters, Zhuang Haiyang, who quickly surfaced, pinched the struggling lobsters in his hands and went ashore. From the clothes he took off, he took out the fishing line he had brought with him, tied it up, and returned to the reef pit.

Leaving the largest reef pit, Zhuang Haiyang checked all the other reef pits and found that there were a lot of groupers and lobsters living in this reef pit area. When he went ashore again, Zhuang Haiyang had two more pike crabs and a few large conch in his hand.

After confirming that this meal was very hearty, and changing into the clean clothes he brought, Zhuang Haiyang returned to his yard again. The lobsters, crabs, and conches they caught were placed in tanks filled with seawater, and the liquefaction stoves they bought began to be erected.

Looking at the makeshift kitchen and looking up at the sky, Zhuang Haiyang thought for a while and said, "After eating, it is necessary to clean up the kitchen in the afternoon." If it really rains, you can only move the stove to the living room to cook. ”

In the morning, I cleaned up the yard and the bedroom where my parents lived, leaving the room where the miscellaneous items were piled up, and Zhuang Haiyang had not yet come to clean up. Considering that in the future, my sister's family may also come to stay for two days, and other rooms also need to be cleaned up.

As for Zhuang Haiyang himself, he still decided to move to the second floor, the room where he lived when he was a child. Each room looked like it needed a lot of repairs. But when he came back this time, Zhuang Haiyang did not lack time.

As a child of a fisherman, Zhuang Haiyang naturally knows how to cook seafood. Even if the conditions are a little simple, Zhuang Haiyang, who can set up a steamer, believes that the seafood steamed will be delicious. This meal is changed in the city, I'm afraid it's really not cheap!

"Seafood, seafood, fresh from the sea. Later, when there is time, a few more vegetable patches will come out. In addition to the food to be bought in the town, other daily necessities can actually be grown on the island. ”

For many fishermen living in the open sea, seafood is not expensive, but vegetables are really expensive. Knowing that there used to be a vegetable field in the village, Zhuang Haiyang felt that it should be enough to reclaim it and grow some vegetables for self-sufficiency.

The freshwater resources that the villagers were relocated to before, Zhuang Haiyang, who had returned to the village once, had been carefully observed. In fact, in Nanshan Island, there are also a lot of freshwater resources. It's just that it's relatively difficult to extract it.

Fortunately, it is necessary to absorb fresh water, and there should be no difficulty for Zhuang Haiyang at this moment!

Considering that there is no electricity yet, the staple food of Zhuang Haiyang in the past two days can only be steamed buns or noodles. Nanshan Island is isolated in the open sea, and Zhuang Haiyang has purchased a household diesel generator in order to solve the problem of electricity consumption.

When there is time in the future, Zhuang Haiyang will also consider inviting someone to go to the island and install some solar panels in his old house or next to it. With the diesel generator supplying power at the same time, I believe that Zhuang Haiyang does not have to worry about the lack of electricity on the island.

As for the network problem, Zhuang Haiyang could not ask someone to pull the network to the island, so he could only use the wireless network. Fortunately, I tried it a few times before, and the wireless network on Nanshan Island is still quite strong.

Thinking about the need for perfect living facilities, Zhuang Haiyang felt that even if he lived here, it seemed that he could enjoy the same life as in the city. The only difference may be that if you live alone on the island, you can only entertain yourself.

Smelling the aroma of seafood in the steamer, Zhuang Haiyang, who had already set up a temporary table, also prepared his favorite dipping sauce. After confirming that it is ready to be cooked, the shrimp and crab in the steamer and the same steamed conch are served.

Seeing the big lobster and pike crab whose shell had turned red, Zhuang Haiyang also took a sip and said, "It's so fragrant!"

Take out a few steamed buns from the same steamer, tear off the shrimp head of the lobster, and the steaming fatty shrimp meat will soon be presented in front of Zhuang Haiyang's eyes. Break off a piece of shrimp, roll it in the water, and toss it into your mouth.

Chewing the lobster meat in his mouth, Zhuang Haiyang said with great satisfaction: "Fresh, fragrant, tender, and tender, there is a hint of sweetness, this lobster is authentic! If those guys see what I eat today, they will probably say that I have nothing to poison!"

Those who are content are always happy, and they can be happy when they know how to be satisfied. In the eyes of others, Zhuang Haiyang is hiding on Nanshan Island to escape reality. But only Zhuang Haiyang himself knows that this kind of self-sufficient and carefree life may be what he expects.

After eating a few bites of tender and smooth lobster meat, Zhuang Haiyang set his sights on two half-pound pike crabs. Break open the shell of one of the female crabs, and the inside is covered with red cream. Seeing this scene, Zhuang Haiyang nodded with satisfaction.

Picked up the chopsticks and said: "This crab roe is good! I have the opportunity to catch some more next time, and make a bottle of crab roe paste as a seasoning, it should taste good!"

In the early years, when my parents were alive, I would make some crab roe sauce every time the crabs were on the market. For Zhuang Haiyang, this is not only the taste of childhood, but also the taste of mother. For many adults, childhood may be the most memorable and memorable memory.
