Chapter 3 Releasing Dogfish
U.S. time, 9 a.m.
Tang Hai sat on a small stool in the living room, his face still faintly excited.
He didn't sleep well all night last night, he didn't fall asleep until after three o'clock, and he got up at eight o'clock today, but he was still excited and didn't doze off.
The edges of towns in the United States are very quiet, and there is the occasional bird call or two nearby.
Seattle is a beautiful city, and there is an abundant river in Washington state, the 'Nicaragua River', which is often seen in the TV series "The Legend of Bruce Lee". and a dense network of rivers and streams.
In 1852, the American political axe tried to buy Seattle land with the Seattle Indian chief, but the Seattle chief refused, saying that the river here was our brother, and they quenched our thirst, carried our canoes, and fed our children.
Even if the Americans did wreak havoc here, and modern people do not pay attention to the environment and pollute here, this is still a world of forests and rivers!
The section of the river at the gate that Tang Hai is responsible for is one of the tributaries of Nicaragua!
After catching the 30-kilogram pike last night, he has been very excited when he came back, and early this morning he went to the river to try to find out if he could possess the river again.
Although the process was tedious, Tang Hai finally found a way.
He tried all the auspicious lying of the Buddha Gate, the five hearts of the Taoist Gate to the sky, and the Cross painted by God, and finally found that he only needed to concentrate......
After he successfully possessed Xiaohe again, he tried the limit of his vision, which was about 5,000 meters, and he felt tired from further away. And once he unfolds his vision, he can 'see' all the waters in his field of vision in an instant, and once he is unpossessed, he will feel a little tired.
At the same time, his situation should have something to do with the health and environmental conditions of the river, he felt that he was a small river at that moment, and there were some places where there was some waste at the bottom of the river, which gave him the feeling of allergies, and that place felt itchy and hot, and there was no refreshing feeling elsewhere at all.
In addition to his vision, Tang Hai discovered that he had a strange power in the river.
He can control the flow of water, as if commanding his arms, but his strength is not very large, and he can control the movement of 200 catties of water, and he will feel tired when he does this.
Although he didn't know why he had this special function, Tang Hai was still very happy, and when he came back, he drank a glass of water and didn't eat breakfast, so he sat silly.
With this ability, Tang Hai felt that if he didn't say anything about getting ahead, at least it was unlikely that he would continue to be poor like this. In the future, if you make a fortune, you will go home in a beautiful way, and you will also let your parents be chic, not to mention buying a house or a car, and you can also have spare money to take them out to travel and take them to play all the places they have been to when they were wandering. and his younger brother, who can earn his own tuition for studying, so that he can rest assured that he can study in college, and he can be regarded as fulfilling his original wish.
It is estimated that everyone woke up at this time, and Tang Hai took out his mobile phone.
"Hey, Bill?"
"Don? So early, is there something wrong? ”
As long as Americans don't work in big cities such as New York, they are actually relatively leisurely, Tang Hai used to learn cooking in New York, and he felt that people came and went to and from work, everyone seemed to be an inconspicuous ant in the ant colony, and now he was a cleaner, which strangely gave him a feeling of 'living like a human'.
Sure enough, Bill had just woken up.
Tang Hai was about to ask him if he knew anyone playing betta, and glanced at the bathroom, where the pike was plopping and having fun in the second-hand bathtub, raising his head to look at him from time to time.
"It's nothing, it's just what you said yesterday, helping out in a restaurant or something, I'm sorry for you."
"It's not troublesome, I'll just ask someone a thing."
Bill hung up the phone, with a puzzled face, he had just gotten up now, and his face had not been washed, Tang Hai called so early and said this?
Tang Hai found a large plastic bag, packed the pike, and brought it to the river.
"For such a big pike, the meat can be sold for 500 US dollars, and it is estimated that it can be sold to betta fish for 1,000 ...... Five hundred, you lost me at least five hundred dollars, and I called five hundred, okay? Go home by yourself, remember to avoid humans in the future, and don't eat food that has a small swing, understand? Tang Hai put the bag of the giant dogfish on the ground, and said to the dogfish regardless of whether the dogfish understood it or not.
The pike wagged its tail and spat at its blisters.
Tang Hai felt very strange in his heart, he actually felt that this dogfish liked him and wanted to play with him?
It was this strange feeling that made him unbearable to sell the dogfish for a while.
Worried that he would be unable to help but sell it if he delayed it any longer, Tang Hai gritted his teeth and dumped it into the river with the bag, and the black and white pike was poured into the water by him.
Tang Hai was about to turn around when he saw the pike swimming towards him again, its bare head undulating, its mouth fluttering and spitting bubbles.
Tang Hai relented, sat down and closed his eyes.
"Over there, there's a school of carp 2 kilometers away, you shouldn't be afraid of fish bones, right?"
The dogfish really looked in the direction Tang Hai pointed out, and then plunged into the water, and there was no movement after two or three clicks.
Tang Hai stood for a while, and suddenly shouted: "Don't eat too fat, if you eat too fat, you will be caught and eaten by others if you are too fat!" ”
The sound echoed through the woods, startling countless birds, but the fish could not understand human speech.
Tang Hai suddenly sighed, shrugged his shoulders, put away the bag and went to find his 'work tools'.
He is a river cleaner, and he is responsible for a 50-meter-wide and 10-kilometer-long stretch of the river, and he is now technically a small organization.
Half of his income was subsidized by the state, which was actually given to Peter, but Peter did not lack his money, so he gave him the money and put him in charge of the river. He is a black household, and it is difficult for him to find a job on his own.
He also earns half of his income by picking up scrap and selling it to recycling companies, or selling it second-hand.
That's about $800 a month!
This money is equivalent to RMB, but in the United States, if you find a regular job in a big city, the monthly salary will be at least 3,000 US dollars, and there is a guaranteed salary here, as long as you are willing to work overtime, it is not difficult to earn 4,000 a month, Tang Hai is basically a desperate poor class in the United States.
His tool for work was a small boat estimated to be older than him, but fortunately, the motor was estimated to be younger than him. The whole ship was a little tattered, but at least it worked.
There are bamboo poles with hooks on them, and there are large garbage cans, which are all tools for his work.
He put an alcohol stove, a barbecue grill, a few ham sausages, fishing rods and fishing nets and other messy things on it, and sometimes he ran far from work and couldn't come back in time, so he would have a meal on the boat.
Having driven the boat to the place he had 'seen' before, he threw the rod and the hook flew out and fell into the water.
After a while, he slowly reeled in the line, and the large tire hidden under the water was pulled up by him with a fishing line.
He tried to possess the river again, and sure enough, it was much more comfortable, and the force of the water he wanted to control was greater.
Along the way, relying on the 'possession' magic skill, with the 'water control', he didn't have to blindly look for garbage, and cleaned up the debris of the entire river in the evening.
At this moment, he felt that if he continued to work like this, would he be able to evaluate a model worker?
Tie the rope that fixed the boat to a tree, Tang Hai lay down on the bench on the boat, and lazily threw the rod casually.
He vaguely remembered that there were a lot of sunfish in the vicinity just now, and they were quite large.
"An ox ploughs half a field, and the harvest depends on the sky, and the famine also depends on the sky.
Coarse tea and light rice are full of three meals, sweet in the morning and sweet in the evening......"
Tang Hai snorted softly.
Probably that's the angler's state of mind, right?
However, fishing is better to make a lot of money! Tang Hai often said this after fishing.
