Zhao Dahai strode to the edge of the mangrove forest, saw that the tide had not receded, found a shady place to rest for a while, remembered Liu Bin just now, and sneered.

The mother-in-law at home has no brains?

It's just Liu Bin's excuse!

It's not a three-year-old child, whether it's married from another village or from this village, it's impossible to remember the land of any family. When you plant a tree, you want to occupy an area.

If it weren't for a battle with Sun Minghua a few days ago to get back the vegetable field behind the house, Liu Bin wouldn't have told himself about it, he couldn't get back his own vegetable field, and the land on the mountain couldn't be taken back either, Liu Bin definitely said that it was his own land.

Liu Bin took the initiative to say that he planted the wrong land, gave some face, and didn't care much about it. Don't talk about it today, one day when I go up the mountain and find out about it, it's not so easy to talk about.

Zhao Dahai watched the sea water slowly reced, the water in the mangrove forest was half a meter deep, but the higher place on the side had been exposed, and he was idle, so he just made a meal to eat.

Zhao Dahai just got into the water, the jumping fish jumped forward in groups, all rushed to the mangroves, when I came last time, I found that there were a lot of jumping fish here, and I came to find more today, thinking about when I really have to come here to catch these jumping fish, continue to move forward, and soon found a few good clams, this is a small black hairy shell with a thin black on the shell, it is not delicious, but the taste is not bad, and it is very good to eat a meal from time to time, in just ten minutes, I picked up more than 20 almost two catties, Go back and wash it, boil it in water or remove the meat and stir-fry, and you have a dish.

"Huh?"

"Wrae shrimp?"

Zhao Dahai looked at a two-finger-sized hole in the mudflat not far from his feet. This is a hole dug by the wrasse shrimp. The holes in such places can range from half a meter to one meter deep. The mud on the beach is very sticky, not to mention with your hands, even with a hoe is very difficult, a hoe down to suck tightly, it takes half a day to pull it up. However, there is another way, which can be caught without much effort.

Zhao Dahai looked around, there is another hole of the same size at a distance of about one meter, this is the hole dug by the same shrimp, the two holes are connected, one before the other, it is convenient to escape when encountering natural enemies, lift your feet, put on a hole, step down hard, and the other hole immediately comes out like a fountain of water columns, lift your legs and then step down hard, keep repeating, one after another water column rushes out, step on seven or eight times in succession, and a urine shrimp probe probes crawls out of the hole. The wrasse shrimp is also called the mantis shrimp, with sickle-like forelimbs, the tail is even sharper and harder, like a blade, it will spring when it encounters a threat and struggles, and when it catches this thing, there is no experience and accidentally sees blood, the index finger presses the back of the urine shrimp and presses it directly into the sea mud without moving, and the thumb and middle finger are folded and pinched up one after the other, and the head and tail of the whole shrimp are folded and pinched, one finger is longer and two fingers are the size, and the shore tidal flats can look like this.

Zhao Dahai continued to walk forward with one foot deep and one shallow foot. Hairy clams? No interest. Now the target is the wrasse shrimp. The hairy clams can be eaten, but the taste is really average, and the shrimp are much better. The tidal flat in front of the mangrove forest, the small seafood is simply not too much, half an hour small, seven or eight shrimp of similar size arrived, moved a few stones, four stone crabs fell into the net bag, what I didn't expect was to dig a small octopus.

Zhao Dahai looked at the net bag in his hand and laughed, after such a while, there are a lot of things to catch, tie a knot and tie it, go back and cook it, enough for himself and grandma Zhong Cuihua to eat.

Zhao Dahai saw that the mangrove tide had receded, and the ground was exposed, the time was just right, and he immediately got in, and he came here today not for this little seafood but for blue crabs.

Zhao Dahai quickened his pace, when he was a child, he didn't go around in the mangrove forest, he was very familiar, and in just twenty minutes, he found another trench that was about the same size as yesterday, and he didn't care about resting, and went down the ditch with water, and walked forward quickly, searching left and right with his two eyes, and when he saw the hole, he stopped and carefully observed whether there were blue crabs, and if he did, he would dig immediately, and if he didn't, he would give up and continue to move forward.

What's going on?

Is there so little blue crab?

Zhao Dahai wrinkled his brows, in two hours, this was already the fourth ditch in front of him, only one blue crab was dug and it was not big, about three or two, he was very disappointed, thinking that he would go into the mangrove forest to catch more blue crabs and sell more money to repair fishing boats in the past few days. Now it seems that it is too simple, there are not as many blue crabs in the mangrove forest as I imagined, and the last harvest was an accident.

Zhao Dahai found a dry place, pulled some grass, sat down on the mat, there were no blue crabs in several small ditches, there was no point in continuing to look for them, it was in vain, rest for a while, and see if you could find blue crabs in the mangrove forest when it was dark.

The sun is setting in the west.

The light is getting weaker and weaker. Mangrove forests grow densely and darken faster.

One bird after another flew in circles, chirping incessantly. It's so lively.

Zhao Dahai stood up, turned on the flashlight, went into the mangrove forest, walked two or three hundred meters without harvest, and was thinking about whether to give up and go home when he saw a blue crab crawling towards a dead small fish, the flashlight shone, bending over and walking quickly.

"Aha."

"Amber crabs."

Zhao Dahai grabbed the blue crab, took a closer look, and was very happy.

Blue crabs include different growth and maturity levels in different seasons and different growth stages, including butter crabs, meat crabs, water crabs and cream crabs. At the beginning of the growth stage of the blue crab, there is not much meat, more water, this is a water crab, no meat but fresh and sweet, continue to grow, the meat is firm, it becomes a meat crab, it continues to grow, with paste, it is a paste crab.

After the stage of the meat crab, the blue crab continues to grow, slowly mature, and the female crab that can reproduce but has not yet reproduced is the dying crab, which is equivalent to the yellow flower girl who has not been married, and the whole crab is fat paste, even like semi-quicksand, at the same time, the skin shell is soft, and the meat is tender and sweet.

Zhao Dahai prepared the rope in advance this time, no need to pull the vines, carefully tied it and put it into the net bag, flashlight, and continued to move forward, luck came and couldn't stop it, it took the boss's strength to find only one blue crab in the afternoon, and caught five blue crabs in just an hour at night, don't look small, they are all six or seven taels, but they are all dying crabs, and the price is comparable to one and a half pounds of old green crabs.

Zhao Dahai continued to walk forward, with a good harvest, the fatigue disappeared, and after two hours, the tide began to rise, now is the golden time, the blue crabs are out to find food, you have to hurry up, catch as much as possible.
