Chapter 48: A Ship Full of Shellfish

"I have good eyesight, and several crabs are covered in mud and hiding in the mudflats, and I almost missed them." He admits that he did have good luck, but it was also part of his experience.

"Originally, I caught a blue crab, and I was quite happy, but this comparison was directly discounted, and it was a big deal." Ah Zheng shook his depressed voice.

"It's okay, the tide hasn't risen yet, and the surrounding tidal flats are turning around again, huh~ What about the fat man and Ah Guang?"

Xiao Xiao pointed to the beach by the reef, "Na~ The fat man is taking a nap there." ”

Ye Yaodong turned sideways and looked in the direction of his finger, only to see the fat man lying on the beach with his hands behind his head, covering his face.

"Damn, can you sleep on this? Is he a pig? ”

"Isn't he a pig?"

Speechless!

Under such a big sun, he can actually use the sky as a quilt and the ground as a bed, he is really convinced!

"Ah Guang went to pick up the little abalone, and he thought that the goods on the reef were more suitable for him."

"Oh!" He also saw a pouting figure on the reef, "Then you can continue to look for it, the tide will rise in a while, I'll go and rest for a while." ”

As he spoke, he walked to the mud and sand where he had caught the sea centipedes before, where there was still a small half-bucket of sea centipedes he had caught before, just to rest and continue to catch.

This stuff is a little disgusting, and it's also a delicious thing for foodies.

There was no such thing on the beach in their village, and he could continue to buckle the hole a little more before the sea rose, and he didn't know if they would take it or not.

It's okay if you don't collect it, as long as you don't kill it, you can put it for two or three days, there are many people in his family, and it is estimated that he can't put it for three days, and it will be wiped out in two days at most.

Sea centipedes, 20-30 centimeters long and only a few centimeters short, were caught out of their holes one after another.

"You're still caught? It's not disgusting. ”

Ye Yaodong knew that it was Ah Guang when he heard the voice, and he didn't raise his head and said: "It's okay to catch them one by one, isn't it just a centipede in the sea, and it's not that I haven't seen it before." ”

"Do you have to sell it for money to catch so much? Or do you eat it yourself? ”

"Let's see if Ah Cai collects it, after all, we don't have this thing at the dock, so if you don't accept it, you can keep it for yourself."

Ah Guang looked at the bamboo basket beside him, "There are also blue crabs, are they quite big, the harvest is good, and the day's wages can barely be earned." ”

"Say it and envy you to death, Lao Tzu caught seven, two females, five males, all very meaty." Ye Yaodong was quite proud, he never thought that the isolated island was so rich in products.

"What? Seven? What shit luck you have! ”

Ah Guang's eyes widened in disbelief and shook the bamboo basket, and sure enough, he saw several large pincers from below.

"Ah Zheng and Chen Wei also caught one each, do you want to go around again, the tide is not full yet."

"Go, go now, you tell me where to catch it!"

Ye Yaodong pointed to him and reassured, "There, but I've basically turned around, you can go a little farther, I haven't been in that direction." ”

"Got it."

Ah Guangxing rushed to the direction he pointed to, as long as the tide began to rise, it would rise quickly, not to mention that it was already the first day of the new year, and the water level did not retreat very low today.

Ye Yaodong didn't expect that he was just a suggestion, but let Ah Guang harvest two blue crabs, one of which was huge, a little bigger than his largest one.

Make others envious when they come back.

Xiao Xiao joked: "Master Dongzi, when will you also point me out." ”

"yes, I knew I could catch you just now, maybe I could get two!" Ah Zheng's intestines are all green, and he was chatting with Dongzi in front of him.

Ah Guang was a little bit of a taste, and said with a regretful face: "Alas, I went too late, I only found two tides and the tide rose, and the second one was almost washed into the sea by the tide, but fortunately I was fast." ”

"It's okay, you have two blue crabs all of a sudden, the fat man and the little one don't have it, I knew there was one over there, so I went by myself", Ye Yaodong reminded everyone after saying with a smile, "The tide is up, let's pack up everything and get on the boat." ”

"Let's go, go home, I'm starving."

"Me too, I'm hungry."

"Woke up the dead fat man......"

"Throw him here as a savage......

"Speak so loudly, when Lao Tzu is deaf, don't you hear?"

Everyone got on the boat with their own buckets and tools, and then Ah Guang went to untie the rope and used the bamboo poles on the boat to prop up the distance from the shore before starting the machine.

It's three o'clock now, and it's been a whole day since I came out early in the morning, and everyone is tired, and as soon as they get on the boat, they sit or lean crookedly.

"It's quite hard to Taohai, but fortunately, today's harvest is good, and it didn't come in vain." Chen Wei twisted his neck and said.

His temperament is not as lively as theirs, and he usually has their gags, and he doesn't talk much, so he occasionally speaks.

The fat man rolled his eyes, "Why do I think you're sarcastic about me!" ”

"Hahaha, be confident, remove the word "feel." Ye Yaodong said with a smile.

Others couldn't help but be happy.

"Fatty, you might as well not come, look at your white and chubby face, it's all tanned."

"What's wrong with a man being dark, it's really too hot and sunny, and he won't come next time."

"Tomorrow I will go to Dongzi's homestead to help, and I will ...... the same"

Ye Yaodong hurriedly said loudly: "Hey, don't force it, on such a hot day, who is willing to work under the sun, I don't force it, whatever you don't come." ”

The fat man was a little embarrassed and said, "I'll help you depending on the situation." ”

"It's okay, building a house is not a matter of one or two days, the family has hired workers, you can do it as you like."

Everyone nodded, anyway, it would be a little bit of a favor depending on the situation.

The boat traveled for more than ten minutes to the dock, and after docking, they all got off the boat one after another, leaving Ye Yaodong alone on the boat to watch.

They had to go back and get the sacks to load the goods, and there were piles of shellfish on the deck, and they had to push a cart over by the way, otherwise it would be too heavy to carry them home.

While he was waiting, fishing boats came in one after another, and it was already afternoon, and it was time for the trawling boats to come in.

They are all from the same village, how can there be anyone they don't know, everyone greeted him one after another, and when they saw that his deck was full of shellfish, they all asked a few curious questions, but they were all prevaricated by him.

Looking at it is common on the reef, everyone doesn't think it's unusual, they just think it's too much, it's all over the boat, seeing that Ye Yaodong is not willing to say more, they don't ask, they just can't help but take a few more looks.

These things are not worth much, there are few people in the village who have boats, and there are many small wooden boats that are hand-cranked, and everyone's boats must be used to fish to make money, otherwise, there will be nothing left on the surrounding islands.

After waiting for a while, he saw his mother appear on the shore, and she must have come to wait for his father.

Ye Mu also saw him, hurriedly called out, and trotted towards him, "Why did you come back and go for a whole ......... Why are there so many goods? ”

Before she could finish her sentence, her eyes widened in surprise at the husked stuff that littered the boat.
