When Zhao Dahai returned home, Zhong Cuihua had just cooked the rice and immediately walked over to help get the bowls and chopsticks to load the vegetables. The weather was a bit hot, so it was more comfortable to eat in the yard. When busy, I ate dry food and when I was free, I ate thin food. The sweet potato porridge cooked for dinner was fried.
A few salted fish.
While Zhao Dahai was eating, he told Zhong Cuihua that repairing the ship would cost about 20,000 yuan.
"The sea!"
“It costs so much money!”
Zhong Cuihua was stunned for a moment, this is a lot of money.
"Grandma!"
"Don't worry about this."
"Just make money if you don't have money."
"Are you afraid of this if you have both hands and feet?"
"The tiger fish and blue crab made almost 4,000 yuan."
"The money we are short of will not last long. Anyway, we are not in a hurry. We will save it slowly and repair it when we have the money."
Zhao Dahai picked up a piece of salted fish and put it in his mouth. He chewed it twice. It had just been dried and the taste was average. It would be really delicious if it was dried for a few days, especially if it was taken out and dried twice at intervals.
Zhong Cuihua nodded and said nothing more.
Zhao Dahai knew that grandma Zhong Cuihua was determined to weave more fishing nets, so he had to be careful and not let her do it. As she got older, she could do some work, but not too much. Weaving fishing nets took a long time, which was tiring for her eyes and mind.
Not in good health.
The next day.
Zhao Dahai got up early in the morning and as soon as he walked out of the yard, he saw his grandma Zhong Cuihua going out with a small half bucket of water. She was going to water the vegetables. He walked over and filled it and carried it to the vegetable patch behind the house.<
/p>
Zhong Cuihua sat on the edge of the field next to the vegetable field, holding a small handful of grass torn from the vegetable field.
"Aunt Zhao."
Zhong Cuihua heard someone shouting loudly in front of the yard and responded.
"Hey!"
"Aunt Zhao."
"Who's busy here?!"
Ma Hongyu shouted while walking to Zhong Cuihua and sitting directly on the field ridge. Last night, she was thinking that she would have to find Zhong Cuihua today, so she came over after breakfast early in the morning.
"What can I be busy with? At my age, I can't do anything."
"It's just a drag."
Zhong Cuihua looked at Zhao Dahai as she spoke.
"Aunt Zhao."
"I don't like hearing what you say."
"What does it mean to be a drag?! Who doesn't have time to grow old?!"
"Daida is now sensible and willing to work hard, and he will make money. Enjoy his happiness."
"In a few years, save some money, marry a granddaughter-in-law, and have several fat grandsons. The whole yard will be running around in front of you."
Ma Hongyu talked a lot with her mouth.
"Hehehe!"
"This is what I'm looking forward to now."
Zhong Cuihua laughed, this is what she is looking forward to most now.
Zhao Dahai held a water ladle in his hand and watered the soil slowly. When it was poured on the soil, the color immediately turned darker. The vegetable seeds that had been sown earlier had sprouted. They were densely packed and grew half a finger high. These vegetable seedlings grew longer.
It needs to be done quickly. It will be transplanted in another five or six days. Most of the beans, loofahs, cucumbers, and even pumpkin seeds have already germinated. If you look through the soil, you can see that they were planted late this year. They are not particularly suitable for the season.
, how much can it grow? A good harvest will have to wait until next year.
Zhao Dahai couldn't hear clearly what Ma Hongyu said, but it must be something good, otherwise grandma would not be able to smile happily. Ma Hongyu came to the door so early just to chat with grandma?! To make grandma happy? He is not a gangster or a bastard.
You idiot, who has nothing to do with their hands? It’s really okay. Wouldn’t it be more comfortable to sit and lie down at home?
Zhao Dahai continued to water.
The sun rises slowly.
The fog disperses.
Zhao Dahai finished watering the vegetable field and returned to the yard with the empty bucket and Zhong Cuihua. Ma Hongyu had left ten minutes earlier.
"The sea."
“No one has come to our door in the past two years!”
Zhong Cuihua sighed.
Zhao Dahai smiled. Grandma Zhong Cuihua was from a very clean family and knew why Ma Hongyu came to her door.
Why has no one come to the door in the past two years? Why did Ma Hongyu come to the door just now?
My father and mother had an accident and passed away. People in the village always felt that they and their grandma Zhong Cuihua could not live well together, or they simply looked down upon them. No one came to visit, and many people even stayed away, worried about borrowing money or something.
.Now that I see that I am no longer a jerk, I have started working and making money. The people in the village have changed their attitude. To put it nicely, you earn your face by yourself. To put it more bluntly and directly, it means that there are people who are knowledgeable in the rich mountains, but poor people in the downtown area.
No one asked. Things are different, but the principles are the same.
"Grandma."
"More people will come to your door."
Zhao Dahai walked to the corner, put down the bucket, and walked into the kitchen to cook breakfast.
Nine o'clock in the morning.
After Zhao Dahai finished breakfast, his grandma Zhong Cuihua continued to weave fishing nets. After chatting with him for a while, he walked out of the yard and strolled towards the village pier.
The sun at half height was scorching, making my skin a little hot.
The sea breeze blew by, bringing with it a fishy and salty smell.
"Hey!"
"No fish today."
……
"I went out to sea to cast a net at five o'clock in the morning, and I just came back."
"Three to five pounds of small miscellaneous fish."
……
"It's been windy for a few days, and finally the weather has improved. I thought I could earn some money for firewood, rice, oil and salt. But I didn't expect there would be no fish at all?!"
……
"What the hell!"
"No one has gone fishing in the past few days. Why are there still so few fish in the sea? Where have they gone?!"
……
Zhao Dahai stood at the pier, and the people on the fishing boats in the village were talking and envious.
It’s great to have a fishing boat!
Can’t catch fish for a while?
This is a normal thing. No matter what you do, it’s impossible to eat meat every day, right?
The key is to have a fishing boat to go to sea. As long as you can go to sea, there is hope.
Zhao Dahai pulled his hair hard. He had to hurry up and save 20,000 yuan to repair the fishing boat. But, who doesn't want to make money? But how can this money be so easy to make?
Crab and tiger fish?
Blue crab?
Everyone can make money.
The reefs had been fished out long ago. There were probably only a few giant crabs and tiger seedlings. The mangroves were very big, and there were blue crabs in them, but they had to go further. The tide would rise and fall, but they wouldn't last more than a few hours, so they dispersed.
They can't run very far with their legs. They can catch everything they can. Zhong Shizhu and the others spent a whole day drilling in the mangroves yesterday but got nothing. Whether it's crab, tiger, fish or blue crab, it will take a year to get the land.
Half a year.
What to do?
Zhao Dahai's mind almost exploded. There are very few ways to make money in fishing villages. Going to sea is almost the only way to make money. However, those who want to go to sea have fishing boats. If they want to have fishing boats, they must first have the money to repair them. But if you don't have fishing boats, you can't make money by going to sea.
This is an infinite loop.
Zhao Dahai saw a dead snail on the ground and kicked it into the sea depressedly. Several small fish were frightened and jumped forward, causing small splashes of water on the calm sea.
Zhao Dahai laughed when he saw the jumping fish that had rushed more than ten meters and stopped next to a wooden pile.
What can you catch and make money if you don’t have a fishing boat?
Isn’t this ready-made?
The price of jumping fish, especially the minnows among them, is not low. Yesterday when blue crabs were sold, a piece of paper was posted in front of Liu Gang's restaurant, saying that he had purchased some seafood at high prices. I glanced at it and saw that there were minnows among them. The key is
, when I was catching blue crabs a few days ago, I saw a lot of jumping fish on the tidal flat next to the mangrove.
