The sun rises half a day high.

stove the same.

The mudflats were hot in the sun, the sea water evaporated, and it was a little harder to breathe.

Zhao Dahai gasped for breath, the clothes on his body had long been wet and dry, circles of white powder, I don't know if it was sweat salt or seawater salt, and his face was covered with a lot of mud.

Zhao Dahai drank a few sips of water, and immediately began to collect the bamboo tube, this is the third day to catch the jumping fish, the muscles are sore, very tired, but the harvest is good, the first day to catch about five catties of jumping fish, yesterday and the second day caught about six catties, today is the third day, I hope to have almost the same harvest, there is no secret to catching the jumping fish, desperately die.

Zhao Dahai rowed the mud horse, took out a bamboo tube and stuffed it into the net bag, and shook it.

Hey?!

Zhao Dahai glanced at the jumping fish that had just been thrown out, and found that it was not the same as other jumping fish, reaching into the net bag to grab it, but did not take it out, the jumping fish had mucus and sea mud on its body, it was very slippery, and he had to run away carelessly, and it was safe to stay in the net bag.

Zhao Dahai bent down and washed the jumping fish, and now he saw it very clearly, it was indeed different, and there were very obvious blue spots on his body.

"Hehehe!"

"Good stuff!"

Zhao Dahai recognized at a glance, the jumping fish in his hand is often said to be a pink minnow, there are many kinds of jumping fish, there are five or six kinds of jumping fish that can be seen on the beach of Langtou Village and several nearby villages, most of the jumping fish are relatively small and slender, the pink minnow is different, the size is big, the meat is more, the fat is rich, the meat is very smooth and tender, and even has a slippery and powdery taste, the taste is very delicious, and the price is the highest.

Zhao Dahai let go of his hand, the jumping fish fell into the net bag and mixed with others, rowed the mud horse and continued to collect the bamboo tube, half an hour passed, stopped, wrinkled his brows, collected almost twenty bamboo tubes, poured out of the jumping fish There are more than a dozen, seven or eight of which are pink minnows. The mudflats by the sea, including the mangrove forest, have a lot of jumping fish and even countless, but most of them are ordinary jumping fish, all the ones caught in the first two days are ordinary jumping fish, the number of pink minnows is not much, now there are seven or eight of the dozen jumping fish are pink minnows, which is absolutely abnormal.

What the hell?!

What's going on?

Could it be that there are a lot of pink minnows here?

Zhao Dahai looked at the mudflats in front of him. Generally speaking, ordinary jumping fish can be sold for thirty or forty-one catties, a little fat and a little bigger can be sold for forty or fifty, the price of pink minnows is relatively high, a pound can be sold for at least ten to fifteen yuan more, if it is large and fat, it can easily be sold for seventy or eighty, which can catch up with the price of blue crabs.

Zhao Dahai pondered while collecting the remaining two dozen bamboo tubes, looked at them carefully, and caught more than a dozen pink minnows.

Zhao Dahai did not hesitate, and immediately put the bamboo tube in place. The mudflats in front of the mangrove forest, including the mangrove forest, are very wide, and when the bamboo tube was put before, a place was only put once, not that there were no jumping fish in this place, but that there were more jumping fish in front of it, and it was easier to catch fish. Now it is different, the place in front of you is likely to be the "territory" where pink minnows gather, and if there are many pink minnows in one place, it means that there are more pink minnows. The price of pink minnows is higher, and catching them is more cost-effective, so why not.

Zhao Dahai walked very carefully this time, and did not let go of every hole of the jumping fish. Eighty bamboo tubes were put away, and they immediately began to jump out of the mangrove forest to catch jumping fish.

"That's right!"

"100 percent it's a pink minnow."

Zhao Dahai was very excited and waved his right hand vigorously. Pink minnows are large and different from ordinary jumping fish. If you look closely, it's easy to tell. I guessed that I was not wrong at all, the quagmire in front of me, including the mangrove forest, is indeed a place where pink minnows gather.

Zhao Dahai finished catching up with the jumping fish, and immediately began to collect the bamboo tubes, not all of them were pink minnows, but at least five or six of the ten bamboo tubes were pink minnows, very excited, more motivated, and put away the bamboo tubes over and over again to catch the pink minnows. I don't go anywhere nowhere, just spin around in this mudflat, and stumble to the end.

Sunset.

The water rose and flooded the mudflats, and after about half an hour, the mangroves had lost their roof.

Zhao Dahai carried a net bag that was half mud and half water soaked in the bucket, the jumping fish in it were seven or eight catties, most of them were valuable pink minnows, washed bamboo tubes and mud horses, tied up and carried to the house with a flat pole, when passing by the small wharf of the village, I met a lot of people in the village, said hello, left quickly, catching the jumping fish was very physically demanding, plus I simply ate a little cold rice at noon, I was so hungry that I hurriedly went back to cook rice to fill my stomach.

"Zhao Dahai is really ruthless, right?!"

Zhong Shizhu carried a bucket of seawater, rushed to the deck of his fishing boat, and glanced at Zhao Dahai, who was striding away. In the past three days, Zhao Dahai got up early every day and went dark, rolling on the mudflats on the edge of the mangrove forest every day to catch jumping fish, and only returning home when the tide began to rise when the tide was low.

"I can't do this kind of work."

Liu Bin was sorting out the fishing nets on the fishing boat next door, and immediately shook his head when he heard this. But riding a mud horse to catch jumping fish on the mudflats? It doesn't sound difficult, anyone can do it. It's true that anyone can do it, but it's not everyone who can do it for a few hours a day and three days in a row. It's a very hard job, and I'd rather go out to sea to fish for ten days than go to the quagmire to catch a day's jumping fish.

"Hehehe!"

"If you can earn 1,800 a day, you will definitely be able to do it."

Zhong Shizhu made a joke.

"Hey!"

"Isn't this nonsense?!"

"Who would feel tired?"

Liu Bin shook his head. You can make money catching jumping fish, but you can only earn two or three hundred yuan at the end of the day. Driving a fishing boat out to sea to cast nets to catch fish, most of the time you can only earn a hundred yuan a day, but it is much easier.

"Zhao Dahai doesn't have a fishing boat now, so he can't go out to sea to fish, so he can only make money like this. You said that once you have a ship, and you have to work so hard, it's terrible! ”

Zhong Shizhu watched Zhao Dahai turn around with the bamboo horse and bamboo tube, disappear, and turned his head to look at Liu Bin.

Liu Bin was stunned for a moment, his face was a little unsightly. Zhao Dahai is so desperate, once he has a fishing boat, it is really amazing, and he will definitely make much more money than his own people. But what can be done about it? There is no trick at all, you can only watch. But it's all a village, if you can't see it in the morning, maybe you can see it in the afternoon, how can you not have a little heart to compare, how can you watch other people's lives get better and better, and you don't have any ideas at all?
