Zhao Dahai walked into the yard, the bag containing the tools was put on the wall behind the door, and he had to continue to use it tomorrow, grandma Zhong Cuihua was cooking dinner in the kitchen, went in to help, and said about the work he did today, the rotten boat boards have been knocked out, and he will carefully measure the size and buy the board tomorrow.

Zhao Dahai finished dinner, the vegetable field behind the yard turned around, some of the green vegetables grew tall, you can eat, beans and cucumbers grow fast, climbed almost half a meter high along the shelf set up a few days ago, looked at the ground a little dry, unscrewed the faucet and pulled the hose to water it again, returned to the yard to see that the time was still early, called grandma Zhong Cuihua, went out for a walk, walked and walked to a vacant lot in the middle of the village, this place is a public drying field, there are some things in the village that need to be dried, and your yard is not enough to bring here, When there is a big event during the New Year's holidays, the whole village gathers here.

The sun had just set. The hot ground during the day was steaming. There is no program in the fishing village at night, and I am busy all day, and I go to bed early when I am tired. I have nothing to do, I don't want to sleep, I get together to smoke and chat.

Zhao Dahai was a little surprised when he saw many people, and hurriedly asked what was going on. Lei Dayou caught two hundred catties of fish, shrimp and crabs a few days ago, and then Zhong Shizhu and Liu Bin's entire village fishing boats went out to sea to fish, and the harvest was very good.

Lei Dayou, Zhong Shizhu and Liu Bin all smiled bitterly and shook their heads, these days there are a lot of fish in the sea, fishing boats have to go to sea, as long as the fishing nets are put into the sea, as little as dozens of catties or more than one or two hundred catties, it is very profitable, but there will be a strong wind tomorrow.

Zhao Dahai only understood what was going on now, no wonder when he first walked here, he felt that the sea breeze blowing over was cooler and stronger than usual. Making money is important, but life is even more important, no wonder Zhong Shizhu and Lei Dayou are all staying here. When you go out to sea to fish, you can only watch the sea and do nothing when the weather is bad. At the end of the year, the weather that is really suitable for fishing will not be more than half of the time, and in some years, there is no one-third of it. He is repairing a fishing boat and is about to go out to sea to fish, Zhong Shizhu and these people will no longer talk about these things as their children.

"Hey!"

"Forget if the weather is bad, it's God's business, there is no way, you can only accept it, you can only bear it no matter what."

"The scary thing is that in recent years, there have been fewer and fewer fish in the sea. I can make money in a few days when I go to sea. ”

Lei Dayou patted his thigh hard. In recent years, there are fewer and fewer fish, shrimp and crabs in the sea, it is rare to catch a little more fish these days, I didn't expect a strong wind, I can't go to sea, the fish disperse after the gale, disappear without a trace, and watch the opportunity to make a lot of money slip away, it's really a little unbearable.

"There are indeed a lot fewer fish, shrimp and crabs!"

"When I went to sea ten years ago, when I put the fishing net into the sea, it had to be 180 pounds to pull up."

"Five years ago, it was good to have thirty or fifty pounds."

"In recent years, I have been smiling from ear to ear."

……

"What can be done?"

"We don't have any skills, we can only go out to sea to fish."

……

Zhong Shizhu and Liu Bin kept nodding. There's nothing to say about the weather, it's really God's business, no one cares, there are fewer and fewer fish, shrimp and crabs in the sea, which is a headache.

Zhao Dahai's face was solemn, there are really fewer and fewer fish, shrimp and crabs in the sea over the years, and the difficulty of fishing to make money is getting higher and higher.

Zhao Dahai remembered that Zhao Shi had always disagreed with him going out to sea to fish, and now it seems that he is not only worried about danger, but also that there are fewer and fewer fish, shrimp and crabs in the sea, and it is becoming more and more difficult to make money, which must be one of the reasons.

"The sea."

"What are you going to do?"

Liu Bin lit a cigarette and took a hard puff.

"No idea. After repairing the fishing boat, let's see how it goes. The soldiers will block the water and cover the earth. Look as you go. ”

"When there are fish in the sea, when the weather is good, go out to sea to fish, and when the weather is bad and there are no fish, see if you can find some odd jobs."

"No matter what you say, if you work hard and feed your family, you can always do it."

Zhao Dahai shook his head, he really didn't think about this matter, the fishing boat hadn't been repaired yet, he hadn't been out to sea, he didn't know what the situation was, and it was a little too early to think about what to do.

Zhao Dahai didn't talk much later, and kept listening to Zhong Shizhu and Liu Bin talking about all kinds of things about going out to sea to fish, and what he said the most was that it was getting more and more difficult to fish now and making money.

The sea breeze is blowing, getting bigger and cooler.

Zhao Dahai saw that the time was not early, stood up, walked to the second grandmother Golden Peach, said a few words, and walked home with Zhong Cuihua. When I returned to the courtyard, I opened the door and looked back at the sea, which was usually full of lights of fishing boats, but tonight, I couldn't see anything at all, and it was pitch black.

The wind is getting stronger. The treetops whined. It spread far and wide in the night.

Zhao Dahai lay on the bed and fell asleep. Is fishing too hard? Too hard to make money? It's a fact. At first, I was very irritable and stressed. However, when I got home, I had forgotten about it. Is it possible not to go fishing? If there is no other way but to go out to sea, there is no point in worrying and complaining. Just work hard!

Zhao Dahai finished breakfast the next day, just pushed open the door of the yard A strong wind blew in, his eyes almost couldn't open, he walked out of the yard and looked at the sea in the distance, the waves were very high, the wind was really coming, and he really couldn't go out to sea to fish in this weather, but he was just repairing fishing boats, and it didn't have any effect, so he went out with a bag with tools such as axes and hammers.

Zhao Dahai walked through the forest and saw that Zhao Shi had come earlier than him, so he immediately walked over quickly.

"Second grandfather."

"What are you doing today?"

Zhao Dahai really has no experience in repairing fishing boats, so he can only listen to orders.

"The few places that were knocked out yesterday that were problematic were all chiseled."

Zhao Shi took the slender chisel and gestured and explained in detail how to do it.

Zhao Dahai nodded, holding a chisel in one hand and a hammer in the other, and began to chisel, most of the marked ship boards are fine, it is impossible not to do them all, there are places that have been eaten by insects or places that are a little rotten, just chisel them off and then fill them.

Zhao Shi stared at the chisel in Zhao Dahai's hand, reminding him from time to time which direction he should chisel, how much he should chisel, how deep he should chisel.

Zhao Dahai listened carefully while working carefully according to Zhao Shi's words. The fishing boats are made of hardwood, which is very dense, and when the chisel is chiseled, the sound of "Zheng Zheng" is very strong, and it is really impossible to do it without some strength.
