When he was still more than ten meters away from the shore, Mu Chenze suddenly saw a small wooden sign hanging on the fishing net, on which was engraved the name of Chu Zhi.

He didn't bother to take Chu Zhi's fishing goods, and immediately let go.

Fishing nets move with the tide.

Chu Xuan came to the shore and looked puzzled when he saw Mu Chenze's movements.

"Is it because the nets are too heavy to be pulled?"

Mu Chenze said very gloomily, "It is the owner of the fishing net, Chu Zhi's bear." Pulling his fishing nets, I'm disgusted. ”

Chu Xuan didn't expect Chu Zhi to cast a net around here, in case he saw her and Mu Chenze swimming here, maybe something ugly would come out.

"He will definitely come over to collect the net later, and the pike crab will be left to you, and I will go first."

Mu Chenze was not afraid that he would be talked about by others, but he was afraid that Chu Xuan would be talked about by others, "Okay, you go first." I'll go back later. ”

Chu Xuan didn't bother to change her clothes, took her sea tools, and left in a hurry, because she saw a fishing boat driving in the direction where Mu Chenze was.

It's far away, and it's hard to see whose ship it is.

The people on the boat didn't recognize who she was.

However, Chu Xuan guessed that it was Chu Zhi's ship.

Chu Zhigou couldn't spit out ivory from his mouth, and he definitely couldn't see it.

Mu Chenze also saw the boat, went ashore as fast as he could, and walked into the woods with a backpack.

Find a place where no one is around, change into clean clothes, carry a basket on your back, and return to the shore to see a fishing boat pulling nets.

It's Chuzhi's ship.

The fishing net is the one that Mu Chenze found and gave up.

Mu Chenze was a little curious about what kind of fish was inside.

Chu Zhi noticed Mu Chenze, didn't take the initiative to say hello, and was so tired that he bared his teeth and pulled the fishing net.

When he was about to pull on the boat, he found that it was a large rock as high as a man.

Cursing, he threw the fishing nets back into the sea along with the big stones.

Mu Chenze couldn't help laughing, fortunately he didn't covet the things in Chu Zhi's fishing net.

Chu Zhi looked at Mu Chenze with laughter, "I have always been unlucky when I go out to sea to fish. Don't laugh at me! Otherwise, I will be close to your fishing boat every day, and your family will be unlucky. ”

Mu Chenze disagreed, "You go to my fishing boat near the bad luck and I'll take a look!" Besides, I laughed when I was in a good mood, and I didn't laugh at you. ”

Chu Zhi looked around, he seemed to see two men just now, and the color of his clothes was not Mu Chenze, he now suspected that the two of them had replaced the seafood in his fishing net, "Why are you here?" ”

"Passing by. I'm collecting seafood everywhere, can't I? ”

"Absolutely. I'm a little trash fish, can you take it? ”

"No. At present, I only accept sea cucumbers, abalone, pike crabs, climbing shrimp and the like. Mu Chenze took out a pike crab from the back basket, the crab shell was as big as an adult's palm, and continued, "Specializing in this quality." If you can catch it, just send it to my house. ”

"How much is a pound?"

"It's priced by size and weight, so it's never too late to ask for a price when you've caught it. I had to continue to collect seafood and left. ”

Mu Chenze turned around and prepared to leave.

Chu Zhi hurriedly shouted, "Wait a minute! Did you just meet two men? ”

"What? Two men? No. ”

Mu Chenze was surprised, it was obviously him and Chu Xuan, how could they be regarded as two men.

Thinking of Chu Xuan's hairstyle and strong back, if he is far away, he will inevitably be regarded as a man.

Secretly glad that Chu Zhi was wrong, otherwise as soon as Chu Zhi returned to the dock, the rumors between him and Chu Xuan would fly all over the sky.

Chu Zhi snorted, "It must be those two men who cut off the goods in my fishing net and replaced them with big stones for me." Even if I had the choice, I saw them swim ashore from the sea. One is dressed in black, the other is wearing a white shirt and blue pants, don't you really see? ”

Mu Chenze is now wearing a blue shirt and black pants, Chu Zhi couldn't have imagined that it would be him.

"I didn't see it. When I came, I only saw you. ”

Chu Zhi was very sure, "The man in the white shirt walked away with a basket, and he definitely took away my fishing goods." ”

Mu Chenze was shocked by Chu Zhi's brain circuit.

"Since you think so, then hurry ashore and chase it!"

"Must chase! I don't believe I can't get it back! ”

Chu Zhizhen let the boat dock, and when the person was about to jump ashore, he stepped on the air and fell into the water with a pop.

Fortunately, he can swim and there is no danger.

Soaking wet, climb back into the boat and go to the cabin to change clothes.

When he walked out of the cabin, Mu Chenze was no longer there.

After thinking about it, after delaying for such a long time, the possibility of catching up with those two people is very small, so give up chasing.

Before returning to the dock, another net was cast around the area.

didn't notice that Mu Chenze went and returned.

Mu Chenze looked at the boat that Chu Zhi was leaving, thoughtful.

At five o'clock in the afternoon, Mu Chenze, who had just returned from the city, walked into Chu Xuan's house with the payment for the goods.

In the past two days, the payment for grilled fish fillets after deducting dividends and the dividends for catching fish in the sea have been worth a total of 800 yuan.

Chu Xuan was distressed when he saw the bloodshot in Mu Chenze's eyes, "Are you working so hard to make money because you lack money?" I can lend it to you. ”

Mu Chenze smiled indifferently, "Actually, I'm not short of money. Just want to make money. Now I can really hold on. When the body can't hold it one day, it will naturally rest. One thing, I have to warn you, Chu Zhi casts fishing nets near our secret sea catch. Later, you may meet him when you go to the sea or swimming. ”

Chu Xuan said without hesitation, "It's a big deal, I haven't been swimming in the sea recently. Actually, I don't want him to know that I'm learning to swim. ”

"I'll find a way to get him to change places and cast his net as soon as possible."

"I've got your back!"

Otherwise, Chu Zhi would soon find those dozen tide pools, and once he tasted the sweetness, he would always go there.

The next day, Chu Xuan still went to the secret place to catch the sea.

On the beach and in the dozen or so tide pools, there are only clams and small crabs that are worthless.

I happened to encounter Chu Zhi's boat stranded on the beach.

Chu Zhi, who was sitting in the bow of the boat, was not in a hurry at all.

Sit back and wait for the tide to rise.

Chu Xuan ignored him, put on a sun hat, bent down to pick up clams, picked up most of the back baskets, and prepared to go back.

Chu Zhi sighed, "Chu Xuan, you really don't want to be troublesome!" There are so many clams on the beach in our village, don't you pick them up, do you have to go to this remote place to pick up clams, and it doesn't take much effort to carry them back? ”

"I'd love to! Can't I come if you can? ”

Chu Xuan threw down these words and returned to the shore with the basket on his back.

But there was no hurry to leave.

I want to see Chu Zhi close the net.

Chu Zhi saw Chu Xuan's thoughts, that is, not to close the net.

Chu Xuan didn't wait any longer, and left with the basket on his back.

On the way back, I caught four sea ducks and picked up more than 20 sea duck eggs.

I don't feel like I've come in vain.

Chu Zhike was not so lucky.

The fishing net that was pulled up was a big hole, and not a single fish was caught, and only three fist-sized pike crabs were caught, running around the boat with pincers in their hands, as if to laugh at him.

In the blink of an eye, at the end of September, all the grilled fish fillets that Boss Yuan wanted had been shipped away, and Boss Hou didn't ask for any more goods, so Shan An'an came to pull away a thousand catties of grilled fish fillets.

During this period, Chu Xuan occasionally went to the secret place to catch the sea, but Chu Zhi drove a boat to cast a net over there every day, and every time the net was pulled up, there would be a hole.

On September 30, Chu Zhi switched to other seas to cast nets.

At eight o'clock in the evening, when Mu Chenze went to Chu Xuan's house to pull grilled fish fillets, he was in a very happy mood.

"Chu Xuan, from tomorrow, you can continue to go over there to learn to swim. Chu Zhi will not go again. ”

Chu Xuan looked curious, "How did you do it?" (End of chapter)
