Zhao Dahai returned to the village and pushed the motorcycle into the yard, grandma Zhong Cuihua had already cooked the rice, the time was not early, it was almost two o'clock in the afternoon, and she started to eat immediately.

While eating, Zhao Dahai said that the mussels were seventy-five yuan a catty, and they were sold for more than seven thousand three hundred yuan in total.

Zhong Cuihua's chopsticks shook several times, thinking that it was already very good to sell for fifty yuan a catty, but she didn't expect to sell for seventy-five yuan, which would be twenty-five yuan more per catty.

"Hey!"

"It's so lucrative!"

"It's a pity that there will definitely be a lot of motorcycles going into the sea on the next big low tide."

"The sea."

"You're going to have to be sneaky, and don't let anyone else know."

Zhong Cuihua felt very pity.

"Hah!"

"Grandma."

"On the next trip, don't talk about motorcycles, tricycles or something will definitely be indispensable."

Zhao Dahai was amused when he heard it. The sea is not a vegetable patch in your own backyard, it is very open, and the people of the entire Langtou Village, including other surrounding villages, go to the sea, and they can't sneak around. In addition, it is a bit of a coincidence that these mussels can be sold for so much money. It's not that I happened to meet Wu Weimin, but if I sell it in the dry goods street, it will only cost three or four thousand yuan and won't be five thousand yuan, Liu Gang's a little more but not much.

Zhao Dahai remembered the matter of the blood eel, and carefully asked Zhong Cuihua where there were the most blood eels.

Zhong Cuihua immediately shook her head, blood eels can indeed be sold at a high price, but it is too hard and effortless, and it is very not cost-effective, and no one wants to dig this thing.

Qi Dahai knew that this was the truth, this was really not a job that ordinary people could do, if it weren't for the fact that Liu Gang's price was really very high, he didn't want to think about it, so he asked about the place and put it aside first, and didn't decide whether to dig it or not.

Dead.

Zhao Dahai stayed in his room, holding a piece of paper and a pen in his hand and settling accounts.

Goby fish 591 pieces and a dime.

Two thousand eight hundred and three pieces of blue crab.

Jumping fish is a thousand dollars and five cents.

Red spot and stone nine Gong 3,700 pieces and four hairs.

Orchid crab 1,632 pieces.

Dried mussels, which were almost 100 catties, made the most money, selling for 7,357 yuan and 5 cents.

It cost 700 yuan to buy a motorcycle, plus some of the usual expenses, which cost a total of 1,000 yuan.

Zhao Dahai carefully calculated several times, and the money in his hand would not exceed sixteen thousand yuan.

"Where do you get some more money?"

Zhao Dahai frowned, the second master Zhao Shi had already said that it would cost at least 20,000 yuan to repair the fishing boat left by his father and mother, and he was very desperate during this time, and he had earned more than 16,000 yuan unconsciously, but he had to earn another 4,000 yuan.

Is it difficult to earn 4,000 dollars? If you dig another 1,000 catties of mussels, there are many more problems to be solved immediately, but the big low tide is only once or twice a year, even if tomorrow is a big low tide, the village and other surrounding villages A bunch of people go to the sea, and it is a dream to pull back a thousand catties by themselves, which is actually a hammer deal. If you have red spots, you can also sell for four or five thousand yuan if you have a four or five pound one, but God or the Sea Dragon King is not your ancestor, how can good things happen to you every day.

Blue crab?

Crab goby?

Jumping fish?

can make some money, but these few things that are easy to catch are all caught, and there are not many left nearby, and if you want to earn 4,000 yuan, you can only take the road of accumulating a small amount of money, and it will take four or five months to get two or three months or more.

Zhao Dahai was a little irritable, got up and walked out of the room, out of the yard, standing at the door of the house, condescending to look in the direction of the sea.

On the dark surface of the sea, dots of light were scattered everywhere, some moving faster, some moving slower. These are all fishing boats, casting nets at sea.

Zhao Dahai was very envious.

"Fishing boats are king!"

"It has to be fixed sooner!"

Zhao Dahai gritted his teeth and made up his mind to seize the time to repair the fishing boat. Whether it's a reef area or a mangrove forest or something like that, people have come and gone for hundreds of years, and it's no problem to get a meal or two, it's very easy and simple, but it's really hard to make money. My luck is already very good, but I can't be so lucky all the time. If a fishing village wants to make money, especially if it wants to make money all the time, it must have a fishing boat, and only with a fishing boat can it go to sea, can it run farther, and only then can it have more possibilities to make money. No fishing boats means no feet.

Zhao Dahai turned around and returned to the yard, found two hoes, one was relatively wide, one was narrower, chose the narrow one, carefully checked, the hoe handle and hoe iron were very tight, not loose, a little not too relieved, carried to the vegetable field behind the house and tried a few times, very competent.

Zhao Dahai returned to the yard with a hoe, and grandma Zhong Cuihua stood at the door of the hall and looked at him.

"Dig up the eel tomorrow?"

Zhong Cuihua asked, leaning on the door frame.

"Liu Gang of Hongyun Restaurant in the town, Boss Liu's price is very good. I thought about digging a little bit and making some more money. ”

Zhao Dahai put down the hoe and found a small bamboo basket with a small stomach and a big belly, washed and cleaned it, and put two plastic bags and net bags in it. It's really hard to dig up blood eels, but who calls yourself short of money?

"Okay!"

"Then try."

"If you have it, dig it up, don't force it. Think of another way. ”

Zhong Cuihua didn't stop it this time, Zhao Dahai wanted to make more money and repair the fishing boat as soon as possible, but he didn't have much money and didn't have much way to make money, so he could only work hard.

Zhao Dahai was ready to dig up blood eels and went to bed early.

Zhao Dahai didn't get up early, slept until he woke up naturally, and saw that the time was almost ten o'clock before he got up, Zhong Cuihua had already cooked the rice, and rested for a while after eating, when it was almost twelve o'clock, he took a hoe and carried a bamboo basket, carried it on his shoulder, put on a straw hat and went out and strode towards the sea in front of the village.

Zhong Cuihua walked out of the courtyard door, looked at Zhao Dahai's back, and turned around to go back to the house for a while. It's not that there is a real shortage of money, who will go out to work at this time?

The afternoon sun was very hot, and the ground was hot.

Zhao Dahai was wearing liberation shoes, and the bursts of heat were like stepping on a red-hot iron plate.

The weather was too hot, and the village was quiet and there was no one in the village, so they all hid in their homes.

Zhao Dahai walked to the small dock in front of the village, sweat beads dripping down desperately, soaking wet, his hands and feet covered by no clothes, including his face and neck, were hot and prickly.

Zhao Dahai squinted his eyes and looked at the sea, the sun hit it, the wind blew, the waves swayed, and the patches of white light were very dazzling. The sea is just starting to recede, and it takes an hour for it to recede.

Zhao Dahai walked along the shore to the west of the village, the place where the blood eel can be dug is a little west of the mangrove forest, he followed his father to dig in that place when he was young, grandma said the same place last night, I plan to try it first, and I will dig it without changing places.
