Town Fish Market.

At nine o'clock in the morning, the peak period of buying and selling fish passed, and the number of people slowly decreased.

"Mom!"

"After the fishing moratorium, business has improved a lot, and I make a lot more money every day!"

Ding Xiaoxiang looked at the fish on the stall, there was not much left, don't look at it and it was not sold out, but now the fish sold every day are more than ten times more than during the fishing moratorium, and she took down the shop next door, renovated it, expanded the area, and the business became better. The price has indeed dropped a lot, but the more you sell, the more money you make.

"Hmm!"

"That's for sure!"

"There are not many fish, shrimp and crabs during the fishing moratorium, they are sold now and all of them are chilled, and people here in our town don't like to eat big boats of chilled fish, shrimp and crabs!"

Zhang Li couldn't help but yawn, she got up halfway through her sleep last night, and talked to Ding Chongshan about Zhao Dahai, and she had been thinking about whether she had slept well all night.

"Mom!"

"Why don't you go back and rest for a while!"

"I'll just watch the stall alone!"

Ding Xiaoxiang took off the gloves she was wearing on her hands, washed her hands, took a thermos cup and unscrewed the lid, drank a few sips of water, business was very good, and she kept greeting and buying fish, and her mouth was a little dry.

"Okay!"

"I'll go back for a moment, at twelve or one o'clock."

"Sell it for a while. It's almost all about it. ”

"Just come back at four or five o'clock in the afternoon."

"Isn't there a cot in there? If you're tired, pull the roller shutter down. Take a break and get some sleep. ”

"Something's going to call home."

Zhang Li thought about it and nodded, now that she is not busy, there is no need for two people to stay here, and pointed to a folding bed in the corner of the innermost corner of the store. The shop has been renovated, the area has become larger, and the space has become larger. If you're really tired, you can rest here as soon as the door closes. In addition, a phone was installed, which was much more convenient.

"Okay!"

"Mom!"

"Let's go! Here I take care of it! ”

"That's right! Don't come here at noon. I'll buy whatever I want to eat. You go back and get a good night's sleep. Come back in the afternoon. ”

Ding Xiaoxiang has been in business with Zhang Li for two or three years, and these things in the stall are very familiar, waiting for Zhang Li to leave and greet the business in the stall alone.

"Today's mud fish is quite good, only the last two or three catties are left, if you want it, it's cheaper."

……

"These orchid crabs are a good size! Each one has a tael to a tael to a fiel! ”

"Forty dollars a pound! It's really not expensive! ”

……

"Do you want to buy some sea melon seeds? It's very big, and it's a product from the mangroves. ”

……

It took Ding Xiaoxiang less than an hour to sell the few remaining fish, shrimp and crabs, clean up her things, turn on the faucet, take the hose, and rinse the floor.

"Ahh

"I didn't sleep well last night, I'm really a little tired."

Ding Xiaoxiang yawned, she hadn't fallen asleep last night thinking about Zhao Dahai's affairs.

Ding Xiaoxiang pulled down the roller shutter door, took out the folding bed in the corner and opened it, lay down and looked at the newly renovated ceiling of the store, and immediately began to think about Zhao Dahai's affairs again.

Lin Zuhua just went fishing or what?

Daddy wouldn't really be a person who went to see what Zhao Dahai was like, right?

How is Zhao Dahai doing?

You won't poke any Lou Zi, will you?

Ding Xiaoxiang lay down for two hours, her mind kept spinning, she couldn't sleep at all, she looked at the time, it was almost a little, her stomach was rumbling with hunger, and she immediately went to a nearby food stall to make a meal, after eating, drank some water, and sat in the small cabin.

Three and a half in the afternoon.

Ay!

What to do?

You have to ask Zhao Dahai about this matter, but it will be Monday in a few days.

Ding Xiaoxiang's eyes widened, she just slept for a while, she didn't fall asleep, she sat up, frowned, and dozens of cat paws inside kept scratching.

"How did I forget this?"

Ding Xiaoxiang saw the phone in the corner of the wall that had just been installed, stood up and rushed over quickly. The last time we met, Zhao Dahai said that there was a phone installed in the house and told the phone number. I've been thinking about what I'm doing. Immediately call Zhao Dahai to see what is going on.

"That's right!"

"Zhao Dahai should be out fishing now, right? Can't be at home, right? ”

"Didn't Zhao Dahai's grandmother answer the call?"

"What's good to say like that?"

Ding Xiaoxiang took the phone in her hand, but immediately put it down again. Zhao Dahai is unlikely to be at home at this time.

"Hey!"

"Forget it!"

"Call to see if Zhao Dahai is at home, if he is not at home, if he is not at home, Zhao Dahai answered the phone, and he said that he made a mistake."

Ding Xiaoxiang decided to call Zhao Dahai after a while.

"Hey!"

"Zhao Dahai?"

"Huh!?"

"How are you at home?"

……

"Didn't you go to sea today?"

"Too big a wave?"

……

"See you at the old place tonight."

……

"I've got to hang up!"

"I don't know when my mom will come to the store. We'll talk about it when we meet in the evening. ”

……

Ding Xiaoxiang put down the phone, turned her head and looked at the roller shutter door with a bit of a thief's heart, closed it well, and listened to it for a while without sound before she breathed a sigh of relief.

Ding Xiaoxiang finished the phone call, and temporarily put her mind at ease, and asked Zhao Dahai in detail about Lin Zuhua's matter at night to know what was going on.

Ding Xiaoxiang yawned twice in succession, she was really tired from not sleeping all night last night, and she put down her heart, lay on the small bed, and fell asleep for a while.

Langtou Village.

Zhao Dahai put down the phone, today's waves are a little big, he went out to sea, saw someone playing Lua, went to the town to buy a fishing rod, inquired about a lot of gameplay, just got home The phone rang, thinking about whether it would be a call from Wu Weimin or Liu Gang, and found out that it was Ding Xiaoxiang.

"What about the meeting tonight? You can't miss me, right? ”

Zhao Dahai was very happy when he thought of this possibility, and looked at the clock hanging on the wall every few minutes.

"What does it mean to live like a year? Now is the time to live! ”

Zhao Dahai shook his head, wishing it was nine o'clock in the evening, but this was impossible.

Zhao Dahai decided to find something to pass the time, sat at home, time passed more slowly, took the lure rod wheels he had just bought and installed everything, brought the lead hook and soft worms, and rode a tricycle to the dock.

"Yo!"

"Why is there a little ebb and flow!?"

Zhao Dahai saw that the sea water at the wharf had become a lot shallower, and turned his head to look in the direction of the mangrove forest in the west, revealing a lot of tidal flats, which were indeed a little low tide, but not much.

Zhao Dahai got off the dock and walked to the beach in the east, the sun was very hot at this time, and there was no one on the whole beach, which was very suitable for practicing by himself.

Zhao Dahai was a little confused at first, but he had a lot of experience in fishing, and the lure rod was indeed different from the fishing rod he usually used, but the principle was the same to a certain extent.

Zhao Dahai shook off for about half an hour, and slowly touched the doorway.

Zhao Dahai stood firm with both hands, held the position of the spinning wheel with his right hand, held the tail of the fishing rod with his left hand, and shook it forward, and the lead hook flew forward.

Zhao Dahai put down the pole and walked forward to find the lead hook.

"Hah!"

"Am I a genius?"

"Just practice and learn?"

Zhao Dahai praised himself, and the position of the pole walked to the position of the lead hook, a total of sixty-five steps, which exceeded sixty meters.

Zhao Dahai knew that Luya fishing was not so simple, but at least the first step of this throwing was successful, but he was not particularly skilled, and then every time he went to sea, he found an opportunity to shake it twice, and slowly became proficient.

"I wonder if I'll be able to catch a fish?"

Zhao Dahai was holding a lure rod in his hand, and he originally wanted to practice it, but looking at the sea in front of him, it was really a little itchy.

Is it not the same to practice? Why do you have to be on the beach? Wouldn't it be better to throw it right into the sea?

Maybe you catch a fish by shit?

Zhao Dahai felt even more itchy when he thought about it.

Where to play?

Zhao Dahai looked at the speedboat parked at the pier and shook his head, he had to go to see Ding Xiaoxiang at night, and it was too late to go to sea now. It's a bit of a small low tide today, the marina and the beach are a bit shallow, and the point is that there are usually no fish in this place.

Zhao Dahai looked at the reef area where the beach was busy, the sea water in that place was relatively deep, and there might be more fish in that place.

Zhao Dahai immediately rushed over, got on the reef and walked to the outermost point, looking at the sea in front of him, a little excited.

I wonder if there are any fish?

I wonder if I can catch a fish?

Zhao Dahai stood firmly on his feet, took a deep breath, held the fishing rod with both hands and threw it forward, it was very smooth, he flew very far, and smashed into the sea water and splashed a small splash.

Sixty meters!

Absolutely sixty meters!

Zhao Dahai sighed very much, the traditional way of fishing, unless it is the kind of long-distance throwing, it is generally impossible to throw so far.

What's so good about it?

The wider the coverage, the more likely to catch more fish.

It's hard to imagine that a traditional raft rod can stand on top of a reef and throw so far to catch fish from such a distance.

Fishing for the sunken bottom?

Generally, fishing sinking bottom is when the fishing boat goes out to find out where the fish looks, and the distance of casting the rod is generally not more than five meters.

The traditional way of fishing is to use fishing boats to get to the place where the fish are located.

Zhao Dahai shook the spinning wheel to the recycling line.

"Yo!"

"The lead hook is at the bottom of the ocean now, right?"

……

"Boom! Is this hitting a rock? ”

……

"Hah!"

"It really feels completely different!"

……

Zhao Dahai shook the spinning wheel and reeled the line, and it was very obvious to feel the vibration of the lead hook dragging on the bottom of the sea, including the vibration of hitting the stone.

Zhao Dahai felt very novel, this was a completely different way of fishing.

"Huh?"

"Is this a bottom-up?"

Zhao Dahai shook the spinning wheel and collected more than ten meters of thread, motionless, and pulled hard, still motionless.

Zhao Dahai shook his head, and he was proud that he didn't have to wait for three seconds, and he immediately encountered a problem.

Zhao Dahai had no choice but to pull it off hard.

"Huh?"

"No, right?"

"Hung up again!"

……

"!"

"This is the fifth time!"

……

"Hey!"

"It doesn't look like it's that easy!"

……

Sunset.

The sunlight reflected off the sea is very dazzling.

Zhao Dahai squinted his eyes, and the corners of his eyes were full of tears.

Zhao Dahai shook the thread retracted by the spinning wheel, and just now the bottom was hung and the thread was torn off, and in just half an hour, this was already the tenth time.

Zhao Dahai found that Lu Ya was not as simple as he imagined, and it was not even so easy to catch fish.

The traditional fishing method is to hang the bait and throw it out, as long as there is no reef or garbage in the place where it is thrown, gently drag it and pull it, if there is no bottom, the next thing is to wait for the fish to take the bait.

If there is no fish on the bait, the line is reeled and changed for bait, such as live shrimp, the distance of throwing the rod is relatively short, and sometimes it can be fished vertically directly on the edge of the fishing boat.

The probability of hanging the bottom has been greatly reduced, and I haven't even encountered it a few times a day.

Lua is different, what is thrown out must be taken back, especially like the reef that is now on the shore, it is possible to catch a fish only when it is taken back, and there is nothing if it is put in place.

At a distance of fifty or sixty meters, the bottom of the sea is either rocks or rotten fishing nets or something. The probability of hanging to the bottom is too great.

"Damn!"

"If you hang up the last time, then try again another day when you drive the speedboat out to sea!"

Zhao Dahai tied a new lead hook, the hook was hung with soft bait, stood up and threw it just to go out, the casting rod became more and more proficient, and the distance was farther, this time it was almost seventy meters.

Zhao Dahai didn't rush to close the line this time, and carefully thought about how to solve this problem, no one taught, so he could only explore it by himself.

The lead hooks are hung on the stones, and the stones are on the bottom of the sea.

If the hook leaves the bottom of the sea, won't it be unattachable?

Zhao Dahai almost couldn't help but shake his hand to give himself a mouthful.

Such a simple thing, I didn't even think of it earlier.

How do you get the hook off the bottom of the sea?

It's easy!

The rod is raised a little higher, so that the strand is higher, and it is pulled up from the bottom of the sea at once, and when the line is reeled, the speed is a little faster when the spinning wheel is shaken, and the lead hook has been retracted before it has time to sink to the bottom of the sea, so that it can always remain off the bottom of the sea.

Is that really the case?

Try it and find out!

Zhao Dahai immediately raised the pole and shook the spinning wheel to reel, this time the speed of rewinding was a little faster.

"Hah!"

"That's right! That's what it looks like! ”

Zhao Dahai has been receiving a line of 20 meters, and there is no bottom, which is very smooth.

Zhao Dahai was very excited, and immediately thought of another thing, the stones on the bottom of the sea will not run, as long as you are familiar with fishing in a place, you know what kind of place there are stones, especially where you have hung the bottom once, there must be stones or fishing nets or the like, as long as you avoid these stones next time, you will not hang the bottom, which is actually the same as when you fish in the traditional world.

"I'm really a big smart!"

Zhao Dahai was a little proud, the spinning wheel shook a little faster, quickly reeled the thread, and hurried to throw two more poles to try the method he had just thought of.

"Ahh

"Fish?"

"No, right?"

Zhao Dahai saw the clear sea water seven or eight meters away, and he could clearly see that the bait hanging on the lead hook kept swinging, and at this time, a fish rushed out of nowhere and bit down fiercely.

Zhao Dahai instinctively raised the rod and stabbed the fish.

Middle!

Caught in the fish!

Three or five pounds!

Sea bass!

Zhao Dahai is very experienced, the next thing to take the fish is very simple, the rod is pressed down against the water surface, to avoid the sea bass to wash the gills and take off the hook, three times and two times, pull the sea bass to the edge of the reef, and fly the fish directly.

"Hahaha!"

"Hahaha!"

"Hahaha!"

Zhao Dahai looked at the sea bass struggling desperately on the reef, and laughed out loud excitedly. Not to mention three catties and five catties of sea bass, even if it is ten, eight or even twenty catties of sea bass, or twenty or thirty catties of horse fish, or even a large grouper that breaks 100 catties, they are not so excited.

This is the first fish I have caught with a new fishing method, and it came so suddenly that I was not mentally prepared at all.

"Hey!"

"It's so cool!"

"No wonder so many people love to play this method of fishing!"

Zhao Dahai carefully recalled the moment when the sea bass was hooked, and the bite was full of power, which was completely different from the feeling when the traditional floating shrimp fishing sea bass was hooked.

"It's like an electric shock!"

"It's like an electric shock!"

Zhao Dahai was a little excited.

Two days ago, when I saw Lin Zuhua fishing sea bass in the way of lure, I just thought that this was a new way of fishing, and yesterday I saw those other people who could catch sea bass with a rod fifty or sixty meters away. I simply think it's a new way to fish, and I can catch fish in certain situations and make more money.

In order to make money, in order to be able to make more money, you must learn.

Zhao Dahai now finds that this is not just a simple way to fish, a way to make money, it has his fun and his charm.

Zhao Dahai looked at the time and saw that it was almost six o'clock, it was already dark, and he wanted to continue fishing, but it was too late, and he had to go to see Ding Xiaoxiang in a while, so he could only come back another day.

Zhao Dahai carried the fish in one hand and the rod in the other, and went down the reef and returned to the pier along the beach.

"Yo!"

"Zhao Dahai."

"Did you go fishing?"

"This sea bass is really good, it has to be four or five pounds, right?"

Zhao Dahai had just walked up to the dock and saw Ma Hongyu carrying two baskets and walking towards him.

"Wasn't it a big wave this morning? Didn't go to sea. ”

"It's a bit boring at home, I just bought a new fishing rod and played with it, but I didn't expect to be able to catch a sea bass."

Zhao Dahai pointed to the reef at the end of the beach, it was purely practice, I didn't expect to be so lucky and catch a fish.

"It's difficult for other people to fish, Zhao Dahai, isn't fishing as simple as drinking water? You can catch it anywhere. ”

Ma Hongyu was not surprised at all that Zhao Dahai was able to catch fish.

"Auntie."

"What are you doing here? Isn't this a snail? ”

Zhao Dahai looked at the two baskets that Ma Hongyu was carrying, which were full of snails.

Ma Hongyu put down the basket and pointed to the direction of the mangrove forest, the tide receded a little today, and there was nothing to do, so I went to catch the sea somewhere, and saw a lot of snails, all of which were good, and there was nothing else, so I picked two baskets back.

"Can this thing be sold for money?"

Zhao Dahai was a little strange.

The snail is thick at one end and thin at the other, with a small spiral transformation and is shaped like a nail. The appearance and eating method are like the larger or larger screws in fresh water, and the tail must be knocked off or cut off when eating. However, one is that this thing is more common, and the other is that this thing has a nickname called "leak tube", which is not a person who grew up by the sea and does not often eat fish, shrimp and crabs is prone to diarrhea after eating too much, which is not particularly popular.

"The food stalls and restaurants in the town accept this stuff."

"Three or four pieces a pound."

"It's not worth much."

"It's not okay to be idle at home."

"Earn as much as you can. It's just a matter of effort. ”

Ma Hongyu smiled.

Zhao Dahai nodded. Snails are really not very valuable, but they are very weighed.

The snails grow in the mud, and they have to be dug up and cleaned, which is very laborious, and at the end of the day, it is only two baskets, but together there must be a hundred and fifty or sixty catties, and three or four yuan a pound is four or five hundred yuan.

The key is that Ma Hongyu is right, you can't be idle, how much money you make, it's better than sitting at home and eating nothing.

"Auntie."

"Tell me something!"

"I'll trade this sea bass for a little snail."

Zhao Dahai suddenly remembered that he had to go to see Ding Xiaoxiang tonight, and it was good to cook some Ding snails and bring them over.

"Hey!"

"How can you ask for your fish for this worthless thing!"

"Lei Dayou knows about this, so you have to give me two slaps?"

Ma Hongyu said as she took a small mesh bag and filled twenty catties of snails.

Zhao Dahai wanted to give the fish to Ma Hongyu, but he didn't want to live or die, he was no longer polite, he was carrying a snail and resting on the tricycle, the time was not early, he had to hurry back to be able to catch up, but he had to go to see Ding Xiaoxiang tonight, and the big things couldn't be delayed.

Ask for a commuter pass! Thank you!
