Chapter 29: Loaded Returns
Ye Yaodong walked down to the shallow water with the bucket again, and shouted at them when he got closer, "Have you gained anything?" ”
"Is picking up a cat's eye snail a harvest?" Ah Guang looked depressed.
"It's better than nothing." He walked towards Ah Guang and returned the bucket to him.
"I'm embarrassed to take such a big bucket when it's empty."
"Hahaha~" He also felt a little funny, "It's okay, just go back and change your name!" ”
"Hey~ Let's talk about it, a snail still has to burn firewood, it's a waste, let's make up a number for you!" As he spoke, he threw it into Ye Yaodong's bucket, and there was a ding-dong sound.
"Look for it again, the tide has just receded, the tide has not risen so quickly, and there may be a harvest."
"It doesn't matter, you go on, I'll go around the reef wall and see if there's anything to pick up." Ah Guang shrugged his shoulders and walked straight towards the very edge of the reef wall.
"I just visited the reef wall here yesterday, and I picked up the slightly larger sea melon seeds and snails, and I opened all the oysters that could be opened, so you must have nothing to go there now."
"It doesn't matter, I'll just walk around, and if I don't have anything, I'll go back to eat first."
"Okay, then you can see for yourself, with such a big sun, it's better to go back early and rest if you don't get anything."
"Hmm."
Ye Yaodong looked at the surrounding circle that should have been touched by his friend, and simply walked towards the rocks near the shore.
Unexpectedly, as soon as I took a few steps, I felt that I had stepped on something under my feet, which was hard, and when I squatted down, I saw that a cat's eye snail came out a little bit from under the sand.
He picked it up, and his thumb scraped and pinched the cat's eye snail to reveal the soft flesh that had been soaked up with seawater and had no time to retract.
Zi~ Several streams of water flew out~
He chuckled lightly and rushed to Ah Guang, who was walking in front: "Ah Guang, look, I picked up a cat's eye snail behind you, and it's quite big." ”
"Grass!" Ah Guang turned his head to look at it and cursed, "I just walked over." ”
Ye Yaodong threw it into the bucket and said with a smile: "It should be that I have had some luck in the past two days!" ”
"I shouldn't come out today, how comfortable it is to stay at home and sleep, it's really too full to run out and bask in the sun." As he spoke, he walked around the reef.
Under the scorching sun, Ye Yaodong continued to start a treasure hunt on the beach, and then he didn't find any big goods, and it really depends on luck to catch the sea.
Forty years later, even if there is a high tide, there is not so much to pick up on the beach, only a few jumping fish and stone crabs, and large clams.
I don't know what the reason is, it may be overfishing in the ocean, or it may be the cause of pollution, the seafood has become less, only some uninhabited islands, there will be more seafood to pick up.
Watching the tide come up little by little, the big guys want to go back, it will be a little more than a little bit, and they are all starving to death.
"Let's go back, there shouldn't be anything to pick up, it's going to be tide." Xiao Xiao shook the bucket and shouted at everyone.
"Okay, okay, go back, it's hot."
"There are few things to pick up, and they are all picked up by Dongzi."
Ye Yaodong glanced at his half-full bucket, and felt quite satisfied, "I didn't pick up anything in the back, just stone crab and jumping fish, these two things should be able to have a bowl." ”
"It's enough for you to have that tabby, it's worth the ticket, and today's trip is not in vain."
"And that litter of clams! If you earn it, you can also make two or three bowls of scattered seafood. ”
He smiled, his harvest today is really good, and tomorrow there will be a big tide, but he can continue to come and see if his luck is really good.
"Let's go, go back, I'm hungry." Kicking the big rock at his feet, he was about to walk back.
Who knew that at the moment when he was about to turn around, a tentacle stretched out from under the stone, and his eyes widened in surprise in an instant, "Octopus?" ”
"Huh? Did you find an octopus again? Ah Zheng, who was not far from him, hurriedly ran over.
"It's so good to hide, if I hadn't kicked my foot, I guess its tentacles wouldn't have stretched out."
"Grab it out and take a look, see if it's a red chapter, a black chapter or a white chapter, it looks like the tentacles are quite small, it shouldn't be big."
There are three kinds of octopus commonly found in their waters, and the white octopus is also called Wangchao, which is very small, but it is the most expensive and has the best taste. The red chapter is the second, the black chapter is the cheapest, and the meat quality is not so good, and many times you can't bite it.
He reached over and pulled it out along the tentacles, and grabbed it hard, "It's still tightly wrapped, it's a black seal, garbage." ”
"Well, it's better than none of us."
"Dongzi, you're a little lucky today! Before leaving, you can still find a black seal. ”
"Look at your bucket, today's harvest is not small."
Ye Yaodong looked at the octopus tightly wrapped around his wrist, and couldn't throw it into the bucket if he wanted to, so he could only tear it off with his other hand and throw it in, but when he threw it in, its tentacles were wrapped around the bucket and wanted to climb out.
"Damn, I can really climb, I can only hold it in my hands, you can help me move that rock, move it and see if there is anything underneath?"
"You think there's another litter?"
Having said that, everyone worked together to help turn the stone on its side.
"Damn, there really is", he was pleasantly surprised, "It's a pity that it's a little smaller." ”
"It's a black chapter again, it's okay, it's always good to have a harvest!"
Xiao squatted aside to help catch it and put it in Ye Yaodong's hand, "Okay, you can go back, you really returned with a full load today." ”
He grinned, he could indeed add food in the evening, and today he was not busy in vain, and some of them ate and had money to enter.
"It's okay for you to look at it, although there are no good goods, small things can make a bowl or two."
Ah Zheng shook the bucket in his hand, "It's okay, it's more than enough to be above than below, huh~ What about Ah Guang?" ”
Originally, I wanted to make fun of Ah Guang, but I didn't expect to see anyone.
After his reminder, everyone found that Ah Guang seemed to be gone.
"Ah Guang walked around the reef in front of him, and he didn't get anything, so he went back first if he was in a bad mood." It's not that there is nothing to gain, he has been there yesterday, so it's no wonder that he can have a harvest.
"White came out to bask in the sun." Ah Wei was a little gloating.
"It's okay, let's get our things together and take him to his house for a drink at night." Ye Yaodong proposed.
Between friends, it's normal for you to eat mine and I eat yours, and he had a meal for nothing yesterday.
"Okay, it's also quite impressive for everyone to get together, and we can have a decent table."
"Call the fat man up, forget if the mouse is not at home."
"The dead fat man doesn't come to bask in the sun, he will definitely come when he drinks!"
"It's just right for him to bring two catties of rice wine brewed at home."
"This can be there."
Everyone has already arranged the wine and food for the evening without saying a word.
