As soon as it was dawn, the roosters in the village began to crow.

I didn't wake up naturally today but was woken up by the crowing of a rooster, but Zhang Ze didn't have a temper at all, obviously he didn't expect his young self to sleep more.

Turned over and rubbed his face to sober up, he put on his clothes, pants and shoes, and rushed to the beach with a bamboo basket and a kitchen knife without washing his face.

The village was quiet, it should have been just five o'clock, and the villagers would not get up so early when the farming was slack.

All the way to the beach, this time there was no stealing of food.

At this point in time, if there are still people running in the grove, then Zhang Ze really admires it.

This is the high tide of the sea, which is the quiet period at high tide, and the tide will start to recede around half past seven.

The vicinity of the puddle chosen by Zhang Ze was all submerged by seawater, but the terrain was okay and not deep.

He rolled up his trouser legs, took off his shoes, and walked over there, and in a few moments, the water was submerging his calves.

Fortunately, the water has not rained recently, so the sea water is relatively clear, and Zhang Ze can see the bottom of the water at this depth, so he can accurately step on the shallow reef and walk towards the puddle.

After carefully going around in a big circle, he finally came to the place where the shrimp pot was placed.

The grass rope tied to the reef has been submerged by the sea, but not deeply.

Zhang Ze reached out and grabbed the straw rope and pulled it, and the shrimp cage was still tied in his hand.

Without untying the grass rope on the reef, he directly pulled up the shrimp pot at the bottom of the puddle little by little, and soon a shrimp pot was pulled to the surface.

Zhang Ze grabbed the shrimp pot and looked inside, and immediately saw several swinging long tentacles.

Good harvest with several lobsters in it.

Untying the rope from the shrimp pot, he placed the shrimp pot on a large, tall, relatively flat reef, and continued to pull the second shrimp pot up as well.

Glancing at the same number of tentacles, Zhang Ze looked happy, it seems that last night's harvest was good.

Untied the straw rope and placed the shrimp pot on the big reef as well, and he climbed up himself.

Taking down the bamboo basket on his back and placing it aside, Zhang Ze picked up the shrimp pot and poured it into the bamboo basket in turn.

This shrimp pot design is specially designed to catch lobsters, and the activity habits of fish and crabs are generally impossible to enter.

But moray eels can't say for sure, so there is not only a risk of being injured by a lobster, but also a moray eel that runs in by mistake, and the bite force of moray eels is no joke.

Zhang Ze grabbed the shrimp pot and kept shaking, and soon the mess inside was poured out, and there were seven lobsters.

Among them, there are five green lobsters, three large ones are estimated to be more than a catty, and two small ones are about half a catty.

There are also two flower dragons that are significantly larger, that is, splendid lobsters.

Zhang Ze's eyes lit up, and he hurriedly grabbed Hualong and put it into the space.

[Successfully captured a splendid lobster, weighing 2.76 catties, experience +10.] 】

[Successfully captured a splendid lobster, weighing 3.14 catties, experience +10.] 】

Good guys, they add up to almost six catties, and these two alone can sell for almost ten yuan.

The remaining green lobsters can be sold for six or seven yuan together, and a single shrimp pot can earn nearly half a month's salary from workers in the city.

Then he hurriedly picked up another shrimp pot and poured out the lobsters inside.

It's a pity that only four green lobsters were poured out in the end, and they looked like they were seven or eight taels to a pound.

Green lobsters basically grow so big, and larger ones generally don't appear on the beach.

However, those particularly large ones of Hualong can grow to ten catties, and there should be a lot of five or six catties in this era, and the next time there is a chance, you will have to put shrimp pots in the sea.

However, there was no chance to go to sea today, so Zhang Ze cleaned the shrimp pot and prepared to continue to put it down.

He took out the parrotfish he had caught in the sea from the space again, but fortunately he thought that the space would become larger, so he brought in more fish, otherwise there would be no bait.

The fish was killed and continued to be put in the shrimp pot, and some stones were found to put in it to suppress the shrimp pot, Zhang Ze tied it with a straw rope again and threw the shrimp pot into the puddle.

When the tide recedes at about eight o'clock in the evening, he can come and collect it again.

After washing the bamboo basket, Zhang Ze went home with one hand.

The lobsters were all stored in the space, but when he was about to get home, his heart moved, and there were a few more big blue crabs in the bamboo basket.

These were caught in the sea last time, and some of them were left in the space.

The family liked this blue crab very much, and since they came back from the beach, they took advantage of the situation to give them some.

Back home, Zhang Huihong had already gotten up, Zhang Qian was combing Zhang Qing's hair, and only Zhang Wu was still lying on the bed and sleeping.

"Aze, where have you been so early?"

Zhang Ze put down the bamboo basket and said, "Didn't you make up two shrimp pots last night, I went to the beach overnight and put down the shrimp pots." No, I went to see the harvest in the morning and found that I really caught a few big lobsters. ”

"Really?"

Zhang Huihong's eyes lit up, and he hurriedly walked over to take a look inside his bamboo basket, but only saw a few big blue crabs.

"Where's the lobster?"

Zhang Ze explained: "It's easy to die if I get it back now, so I continue to keep it in the shrimp pot, and I'll bring it over when I go to the county in the afternoon." I caught these blue crabs in the morning, Mom, you can burn them at noon and eat them! ”

Hearing that the lobster was still kept on the beach, Zhang Huihong was a little worried: "You just put it on the beach, what if someone takes it away?" ”

"Don't worry, the shrimp pot is in a puddle that no one else can see. At most, our village will go there to dig some raou, and we won't go through the cracks in the stones. ”

Hearing him say this, Zhang Huihong also put her mind at ease. But thinking that the shrimp pot could catch lobsters, her heart moved again: "Aze, can you catch more lobsters by making a few more shrimp pots?" ”

"Of course, you and Ah Qian can make three more, five is enough for the time being, there are too many and there is no suitable puddle over there."

Zhang Ze nodded, but he didn't expect that he would bring it up before he could say that his mother.

After talking, he went back to his room and took out his washing things and went to the yard to wash his face and brush his teeth.

I made an appointment with Tong Yuanhang to go fishing together tomorrow morning, so he didn't have so much to do today, so he planned to go to the county scrapyard in the afternoon to see if he could get a horse lantern.

With a lantern or other lighting, he can go to the beach at night to go fishing.

As for buying a new one, he didn't think about it. Tickets are hard to come by, and the price is high.

He can see if he can fix the bad ones in the scrapyard himself.

If kerosene can't be used for cooking oil, it's nothing more than a matter of money.

In the past few days, Zhang Ze does not plan to go fishing for mandarin fish, and it is not too late to come back to fish for mandarin fish after the harvest on the beach is poor.

After eating at noon, Zhang Ze picked up the bamboo basket again and walked outside the village, the oil residue at home had been eaten, and he thought about whether to get a chicken by the way in the afternoon to change the taste.

And at this moment, a pair of men and women in front of him walked towards him, talking and laughing.

"Aze."

Hearing someone call him, Zhang Ze instantly came back to his senses, raised his head and saw that it was Zhang Qinghe, the son of the captain.

Because the captain usually takes care of his family, he has a very good relationship with the man in front of him.

"Qinghe, Liu Zhiqing." Zhang Ze saw the men and women in front of him walking together, and his brows suddenly furrowed.

The time for educated youths to return to the city began in seven or eight years and ended in eighty years.

But when he celebrated the Chinese New Year in his village this year, the last group of educated youths also embarked on the road home.

Some of them who went to the countryside early could not endure hardships, and either married rural women or married rural men.

There are many male intellectuals who abandon their wives and children, and as for female intellectuals, they are generally unwilling to marry rural men, and some of them are somewhat twisted and turned, Zhang Ze knows it in his heart.

But he has the impression that there is only one female intellectual, who is willing to marry to the countryside.

is the woman named Liu Qiaoqiao in front of her, who is married to Zhang Qinghe, the son of the captain.
