The sun is blazing.

On the open and unsheltered sea, it is as hot as in the oil pan.

"Plop puff!"

……

"Plop puff!"

……

Zhao Dahai shook the bamboo pole, waited for a while and had no movement, knocked a few times, still no movement, looked at the sun in the sky, took out the porridge and salted fish he brought, and ate it in a big gulp, swinging the pile fishing is a physical job, whether the fishing boat should keep moving, every time the bamboo pole has to be pulled up from the sea, find a new place, poke it into the sea again, plus shake, it looks simple, but it keeps repeating many times, not only boring but also really consuming physical strength.

Zhao Dahai devoured it, in less than five minutes, the porridge and salted fish were all swallowed into the stomach, took the net and fished the fish in the live cabin, smiled, the black snapper caught in half a day was added together, there must be fifteen or sixteen catties, not big or small, three taels and four twos, very fat, hard work is very worthwhile.

Zhao Dahai rested for half an hour, continued to change places and continued to fish, until about five o'clock in the afternoon, the harvest in the afternoon was not as good as the morning, and only four or five catties of fish were caught.

Zhao Dahai drove the fishing boat back to the village wharf, most of the other fishing boats that went out to sea to fish had already returned early in the morning, and now there have been many people to the fishing boat to prepare, at night or in the early morning to go to sea to fish, the time of the fishing boat to go ashore and the fishing boat to go out to sea to fish is almost completely staggered.

Zhong Shizhu fishing boat on the fishing net tidying up, in the early morning to go out to sea fishing, put in the sea in the fishing net hung on the reef, rotten a lot, the money did not earn, but lost a lot, now we have to hurry up to make up.

Zhong Shizhu heard the sound of the diesel engine, turned his head to look over, recognized Zhao Dahai's fishing boat at a glance, waited for a while and slowly stopped at the side of his fishing boat, looked at the fishing rods placed on the deck, knew that this was fishing, and asked about 20 catties of black sea bream, and was envious.

"The sea."

"You're more secure."

Zhong Shizhu pointed to the fishing net he was mending.

"Huh."

"Uncle Shizhu."

"You can go fishing with me tomorrow, don't go out and release your nets."

Zhao Dahai said as he threw the iron anchor into the sea, tied the cable, and fixed the fishing boat.

Zhong Shizhu hesitated and shook his head.

Zhao Dahai smiled, didn't say anything, cleaned up the fishing boat, took a bucket, and drew water from the sea to rinse it twice.

Zhong Shizhu's fishing net hung on the reef must have no gain, not only did he not make money, but he lost a lot of money. But it's certainly not like fishing.

The cost of fishing is low, the loss may be smaller, even if the loss is really not much, but the fish caught is relatively small, can not be sold at a good price, the number of fish in the shallow sea area of fishing is relatively small, today can catch 20 catties, one is Zhao Shi told himself some places to fish for black sea bream plus some dad fishing places, the other is more diligent, a place without fish immediately change to another place, a day to change dozens of locations, the average person really can't bear it.

Zhong Shizhu goes out to sea to release fishing nets, the cost is high, the risk of losing money is large, sometimes there is no fish, but once the fish is caught, it is a relatively large fish of value, which day the luck is bursting, catch a hundred and dozens of catties, thousands of dollars in hand, a month down to have one or two trips enough, a little luck, there are three or five good harvests, it is easy to earn a small thousand, Zhong Shizhu these people go out to sea to fish and gamble on this.

Zhao Dahai opened the board of the living cabin, all the dead black eagles were fished out, almost two catties, put them in a basket, the live black sea bream was fished out and put in a bucket and carried home with sea water, the time to come back was relatively late, there was no way to sell fish in the town today, and when I got home, the live black sea bream was poured into a big barrel, and the oxygen machine I bought some time ago was just used, and I will continue to go to sea to fish tomorrow, and then I will go to the town to sell it together for two days.

Zhao Dahai took a bag, left half of the dead black sea bream, took a plastic bag and put the other half on it and carried it to the second grandfather Zhao Shi's house, this is his first day out to sea, send some fish over to try it.

Zhao Dahai sat at Zhao Shi's house for a while, chatted about today's fishing, went home and walked into the kitchen to cook dinner, it was very simple, picked a handful of vegetables from the vegetable garden, fried vegetables and clams in oil, opened the stomach and cleaned the black sea bream, heated the big iron pot and put a little oil to fry it, immediately put the water, boiled the fire, put some salt, put some ginger, put the big pot and the greens, clams and brought to the hall together, set the table, and played two bowls of rice.

"Grandma."

"This black snapper doesn't look big, but it's really fat."

Zhao Dahai took a small plate, sandwiched a black snapper and put it in front of Zhong Cuihua.

Fish in the open sea are larger but thinner, while fish in the shallow sea are smaller and have more abundant food and are very fat.

Zhao Dahai looked at the soup that had been boiled, and there was a layer of small yellow oil stars, all of which were fish oil, and only very fatty fish could cook such a soup.

Zhong Cuihua asked about today's fishing while eating.

Zhao Dahai said that the next three or five months are only fishing, one is just started fishing, the sea conditions are not particularly familiar, even driving a fishing boat is not particularly skilled, fishing in this vicinity is safer, the other is now there is no money, go out to fish to buy fishing nets to refuel, etc., the cost is relatively high, a few days can not catch fish is very troublesome, fishing does not make much money, hard work can always save some money, three or five months or even a year and a half of time have a lot of money on hand, and familiar with the sea conditions and then go to sea is not too late. Fishing is most suitable for me now, the sea centipede is dug by itself, but it costs a little oil money, three or four two black snapper can be sold for more than ten yuan a catty, today I caught more than 20 catties of fish, can be sold for two or three hundred yuan, and if the cost is removed, I will earn at least one hundred and fifty yuan, which is really not much, but it is safe.

Zhong Cuihua nodded, Zhao Dahai's method is good, you have to eat the rice in one bite, don't keep thinking about making a lot of money.

Zhao Dahai sandwiched a fish in the soup, took a bite, the fish meat was tender, the fresh fat fish was really delicious, drank a mouthful of soup, the fresh and sweet brows were relaxed, I ate two bowls of rice, I ate a few black sea bream, and drank the soup, I was full of food and drink, and I was comfortable.

Zhao Dahai finished eating, checked the fishing rod, caught a lot of fish today, the loss of the lead sinker and the hook or something, some have to be re-tied, it is convenient to fish tomorrow, busy with this matter, looked at the black snapper in the big bucket, felt that the sea water is a little less, two barrels tied to the back seat of the motorcycle to the beach loaded the sea water back, poured into the big bucket to put the heart at ease. This kind of barrel is about one meter high, nearly 80 centimeters in diameter, and every family in Langtou Village goes out to sea to fish, and it is used when the fish is too late to sell to feed.
