Fifty nets were a lot, and by 12 noon they had only eighteen, mainly because it took about an hour on the road and another two hours for longlining.

However, the efficiency of one more person will be a little higher, according to the next process, it should be able to barely finish the net when it gets dark, that is, it will take another half an hour to an hour to put it down, and it will still be seven or eight o'clock when you go back.

However, the longline will not be retracted tomorrow, and it should be possible to land in time for the first day of dark.

It's too hard, it's hard to make money, it's hard!

There is no money to be made, and it is even harder!

It's not easy.

Ye Yaodong saw that it was already time to eat, the key was that he was also hungry, and after putting away the net at hand, he stopped.

"You collect the fish first, and I'll go and heat up the food, and the meal is also hot after harvesting."

"Go ahead."

Smelling the fragrant bone broth, he was even hungrier, but fortunately he ate dry rice in the morning, otherwise he wouldn't have lasted until noon.

After feeling that the radish skull soup in the pot had been boiled, he took the lead in scooping a bowl out and drinking it, and the rice was put on top, and it didn't heat up so quickly.

He knocked his mouth over a few times before calling for the others to come over and drink the soup first.

"Stewed pork skull with dried radish slices is more delicious, and a little rice wine is more fragrant, and tomorrow after drying the fish, ask Aqing to dry a little more dried radish."

"I'll call your mother on the weekend."

"That's right, Ah Qing can't be busy, I have to ask my mother to do it, and on weekends, I can ask a few boys in the family to pull radishes, they love to do this kind of thing the most."

Ye Yaosheng listened with envy, but he just smiled, only drank the soup and did not speak.

After a quick and easy lunch, they continued to work without stopping.

As Ye Yaodong expected, when the sky was just dark, they put all the nets away.

He breathed a long sigh of relief, and after looking at the time, he continued to put the net in the same place, and put the net that was collected in front of him.

"Tomorrow for a day, put the net back and take it back to wash and dry, otherwise there are too many things sticking to the net, the fish should be vigilant, and the goods will become less."

This kind of fishing net is good because it is transparent when placed in the water.

"Let's see tomorrow, today's harvest is okay, and if a few are a little broken, it won't affect it."

Ye Yaosheng couldn't help but said: "Then if you take back the net tomorrow to wash and dry, then you can take the longline fishing tomorrow and put it, put it tomorrow, and collect it the day after tomorrow, anyway, if you don't put the sticky net the day after tomorrow, you can be busy." ”

Ye Yaodong nodded, "Yes, when I go back at night, I will ask someone to tidy up, and when I dry the fishing nets, I will put longline fishing, which is just staggered, and I can make money at both ends." ”

"I envy you for making money so easily, it's much easier than us making money."

"It's just that you have to be diligent, plus a little luck, everyone depends on the sky to eat, no one is much better than anyone, you just have a little luck."

He just knows a little more, and sometimes he is a little bolder, or he dares to think.

Ye Yaosheng smiled and shook his head, "Let's do it slowly!" Take it easy. ”

Father Ye went to open the boat, Ye Yaodong re-lowered the nets, and Ye Yaosheng sorted out the remaining fishing nets, and by the way, sorted out the things on the boat, and performed their duties.

It was only when he stacked the goods neatly that he saw the nice thing in the corner covered by a cloth and a nylon bag.

He touched it, patted it and asked, "Dongzi, what are you doing?" Looks like a small machine? I've been piling it up for a long time, and you don't seem to have touched it, so I wanted to ask when I was fishing for jellyfish before. ”

Ye Yaodong turned his head and looked over, and he also saw what he was saying.

He told a few of them before that he borrowed it and wanted to return it, and asked everyone not to touch it, so as not to bump into him and explain it to others, but he didn't expect Brother Ah Sheng to ask again at this time.

"This is a small machine I borrowed from others before, and now it is useless, and I plan to return it, but my friend said that he was not in a hurry, and put it here first, so he never touched it."

"Oh."

"You don't have to worry about it, just let it pile up there."

"I just saw curiosity, I heard before that you were going to pay it back, but I didn't expect it to be there, and it looks quite occupied."

"Well, don't worry about it."

Ye Yaodong felt that it was time to sort out the cabin and move this in, so as not to ask anyone on the ship.

Put this thing in the cabin, and when you need to use it, you can just carry it out, and save it all the way out.

Father Ye also kept looking at him, and he didn't understand why his launching machine couldn't be seen.

In fact, it's not that I'm afraid of being seen, just to avoid unnecessary trouble, after all, people now are naked dives no matter what they go into the water, and there are many people with real skills.

He continued to change the topic, "Brother Ah Sheng came over to help me make a flashlight, brighter, now it's completely dark, I can't see clearly, and I can see a flashlight very much." ”

"Okay."

Now the nights are getting longer and longer, and when it comes to the winter solstice, that night will be the longest night of the year, because the winter solstice is the longest night of the year in the northern hemisphere.

After the winter solstice, it will begin to gradually shorten again, until the summer solstice, when the days are longer and the nights are shorter.

After putting the nets down one by one, Father Ye increased his horsepower and leaned towards the shore.

Ye Yaodong also went to check today's receipt, he has been hurrying to collect the net since the morning, and he has not had time to pay attention to how many goods have been received.

You can only see what kind of fish are there when the nets are collected, are there any unusual ones, or are they big? But not today.

There were still three otters yesterday, but today's goods are super ordinary, so he is not in a hurry to see how many they have received in total.

However, on the way back, I didn't expect to meet Uncle Lin unexpectedly, and he didn't even dock so late today.

Everyone was in a hurry to go back, and they didn't bother to chat, so they only said hello when the boat approached, and then took care of the boat themselves.

When he came ashore, he saw that he had caught two otters, one large and one small, today.

"No wonder you're so late today, it turns out that you caught two otters and delayed, right?"

"yes, I happened to see a group of otters near the island not far from the island town, so I thought I would try my luck and see if I could catch two? When I came back to the dock yesterday, I saw that someone had caught two of them. ”

"Luck."

"How many goods did you receive today? 50 sticky nets, busy coming? ”

"It's really right for you to say, the two of you can't keep busy at all. I didn't come back until nine o'clock in the evening yesterday, and today I specially asked Brother Ah Sheng to help, and it was too early to come back. ”

"That's why I only put 30 nets, otherwise the father and son wouldn't be able to do it."

Father Ye smiled and said: "You are just one son, I don't know how much trouble to spare, just do enough to eat, unlike I have three sons, you have to earn a little more, otherwise you won't have enough points at that time." ”

"Children and grandchildren have their own children and grandchildren, they all have their own boats to earn money, what else do they share? We won't be able to do it for a few years, and we will have to go back to growing vegetables when the time comes. ”

"That's not what I said, the boat that the eldest and the second two of them worked on together was still leased to them, and I couldn't take it back when the time came. I can only earn more money to compensate Adong, and there are many grandchildren in the family, and I can still give my grandchildren a ...... when the time comes."

Ye Yaodong rolled his eyes when he heard this, his father was only 50 years old, and he was already thinking that his son would divide the family property and give it to his grandson, if the two of them earned enough for them to spend until they were old, he would be thankful that he didn't need the three brothers to give money to support the elderly.

After all, they still have more than 30 years to live, and prices are soaring, and now if they save 10,000 yuan, according to their urine, they are reluctant to eat and wear, and after 30 years, hehe~ I still want to give my grandson an inheritance......

"Don't talk so far, Dad, wait until you earn your pension money first", after saying his father, he said to Lin Jingye again, "Uncle Lin's harvest today is also very good, the boat is full of fish." ”

"I can't compare to you, you have more nets, and you have caught more goods. Don't bother with small talk, it's late, it's estimated that we are the only ones left, the lights at the acquisition point are turned off, go and call Ah Cai over first. ”

"Hey, Brother Ah Sheng will help us call Ah Cai over, right? He must not have slept at this point, please help us run. ”

"Okay, I'll go."

After Uncle Lin's own ship finished moving the goods, the father and son also came over to help their family carry it, and when they saw the harvest on their ship, they couldn't help but be stunned.

"I know you must have caught a lot of goods, but I didn't expect so much, it looks like there are twice as many as us."

"That's because we still received 1,000 row hooks today, so isn't it a lot of goods? There is a lot of work, and there will be more goods, and we have specially hired one more person to help with it. ”

"How much wages do you have to hire a talent, and so many goods, it's really a lot of money."

"It's okay, it's not okay to do a little more, but I also bought a rolling wheel, so I have to earn my money back."

"Good boy, sure enough, young people are more willing to spend their blood, like an old guy in the next village is reluctant, I met a father and son in Dongqiao Village yesterday, and the three of them were forced to pull there, just that efficiency, it's really not as fast as buying one to make money."

"That's it, human beings can't compare to machines."

"Carry first, lift first, you have too many."

"I'm sorry for you."

"You're welcome~"

Ye Yaodong had calculated the baskets before, they caught more toad fish today, 1 basket more than yesterday, and the size was generally a little bigger, he estimated that there should be another one or two hundred catties more.

However, there is no shortage of other fish goods, and it still looks like there are five or six hundred catties, but I don't know if it is worth a little more, and it is estimated that compared with yesterday's, the fluctuation is not large.

But today he also received the goods of longline fishing, according to his preliminary estimates, today it is estimated that it is more than 200s, and after deducting the money for toad fish, it is estimated that it is still about 156.

While they were waiting there to be weighed, a female voice shouted not far away, and they turned their heads and pricked up their ears to listen to the sound.

"What's the sound, who's calling?"

"It's a big night, it's dark, who's still outside, what's the sound?"

"Who? Why do you hear the scolding again? ”
