Catch the sea: start with a sand shovel and take over the entire beach

The tricycle was parked at the door. The three of them moved up the tools for driving the sea, including the water pump. Zhao Ping took the key and insisted on driving it by himself.

"Ayuan, keep an eye on your sister at home. Your mother will come back and tell her that your uncle and I are going to catch the sea."

Ayuan looked at the tricycle and wanted to sit on it.

"Don't be so embarrassed and say what you want to eat, my uncle will bring it to you when he comes back."

"Uncle, we have finished eating the watermelon at home."

"Okay, come back and pull a tricycle, enough for you to eat for half a month."

After stroking A Yuan's head, he jumped into the car and set off.

When they came to town, Zhao Qin bought 20 large buns, enough for them to eat for lunch. When they arrived at Qian Kun's house, he took them to the dock.

"I know an island. You can see it in about an hour's row east. How about I drive a boat to take you there?"

"No need, Mr. Qian, we are just messing around. It's best if we have overseas goods. It doesn't matter if we don't have overseas goods. This is already a lot of trouble for you."

After saying a few polite words, Zhao Ping had already inspected the boat. The three of them moved the things onto the boat. Zhao Qin rode the tricycle to Chen Dong's purchase station again. This time, it was Chen Xue who was looking after the store.

"Hey, when did you buy a car, or one with three wheels?" The girl's tone was teasing.

"Sister, I'm busy right now. When I get back, I'll make up an adventure about Zhao Qin buying a car with you. I have to tell you about it for three days and three nights."

Seeing him run away quickly, Chen Xue looked at his back and shouted, "I won't pay for it if you lose it."

Zhao Qin just waved his hand back.

After getting on the boat, he watched how his elder brother operated it. It was quite tiring to row for a long time. After he learned it, he could take turns with his elder brother. A He also had this idea, and Zhao Ping followed the two of them without hesitation. Talking about how to control.

There was a lot of wind yesterday, but today the sea is as calm as a mirror, without any sea breeze. The advantage is that there is less risk when a small wooden boat goes out to sea, but the disadvantage is that it is too hot.

"Actually, you don't have to look for an island. If there are fishing lines and hooks, it would be good for the three of us to fish with fishing lines on the boat." Zhao Ping said while shaking the paddle. It seems that the addiction to fishing the day before yesterday has not passed.

"Then if you hadn't told me earlier, we would have no hook or bait now." Zhao Qin also thinks that the elder brother's proposal is good, but now that it has come out, it is not cost-effective to go back.

In the middle, Zhao Qin and A He took turns paddling. It is not difficult to learn if someone teaches you, just keep the force of both hands evenly, otherwise the boat will veer.

After paddling for about an hour and a half, I finally saw an island. The terrain of the entire island is high in the east and low in the west. The east side is relatively steep cliffs, while the west side is relatively flat. I found a place to park the boat and throw the rivets.

Zhao Ping was worried and dragged the rope down again and wrapped it around a rock.

Seeing that he was about to move the water pump down again, Zhao Qin stopped him and said, "Brother, let's walk around the island first. There may be no puddles. Each person just needs a bucket and a shovel."

Zhao Ping thought about it. The three of them were holding sand shovels and buckets. The old rule was that one person would go around the island first. Zhao Qin walked to the right this time, and the eldest brother walked in the middle.

Going east, it becomes more and more difficult to walk. Some places have to climb higher than lower. It is high tide now, and some snails can be seen on the rocks at the lower places. Most of them are worthless, and he doesn't mind it. , picked it up and threw it into the bucket,

As for the oysters, he had no time to crack them.

After wandering around for a long time, I saw a puddle, but the drop was quite large, about six or seven meters. The surrounding areas were very steep and it was impossible to get down. However, there were some relatively flat rocks around the puddle, like A man-made embankment,

But he knew that it should be formed by long-term wave erosion.

If you can row around here from the sea, it should be feasible.

Don't worry, this is a bit difficult. Let's continue looking to see if there is a better place.

This island is not small. It is bigger than the previous one with fresh water. Two hours later, he and Ah He met up and looked at each other's buckets. Then they were both disappointed. Except for a small half bucket of worthless snails, there was nothing. there is none left.

"My side is flatter, and some of the puddles are too shallow to hide the fish."

Zhao Qin patted him on the shoulder and said, "Let's go and see how big brother's place is."

As a result, the two found Zhao Pingping and found that his harvest was even more bizarre. There were dozens of bird eggs in the bucket.

"Where did it come from?"

"There are some woods over there. I went in and took a look. There were very few people here. Birds were making nests directly on the ground, almost all of which were pheasant eggs."

The three of them told them all about their situation, but they couldn't find a puddle to pump out. The terrain in the middle was high and birds had made nests. It was obvious that the sea water could not rise.

"What should we do? Either we pick up snails in the surrounding area, or we can search again to see if there are any other small islands."

Zhao Ping looked at him and asked. Zhao Qin thought for a while and pointed to the place where he just found it. "Brother, let's row the boat over. There is a puddle over there. It is estimated that it has receded by now."

The three of them had no choice but to get on the boat again and sail eastward.

"This is it." Zhao Qin pointed to a cliff. He had just placed a stone on it to mark it, but he was worried that he wouldn't be able to tell the difference when he really wanted to look for it.

The boat approached carefully. As he had seen from above, the naturally formed embankment was seventy or eighty centimeters wide. The water level was already receding at this time, and the water surface was about thirty centimeters away from the embankment, which was just enough for construction to begin.

"Aqin, maybe the sea water underneath is filled, so we will never be able to drain it dry."

Zhao Qin was stunned. He really had not thought about this problem, but he was no longer worried in an instant, because the water surface in the embankment was obviously higher than the sea surface. If it was connected, the water level should decrease with the low tide.

"No, let's get started."

He didn't explain, he just said it, and the two of them said nothing more and started to lift the water pump to the embankment.

Zhao Qin took out the fishhook and fishing line, put them into the pit, confirmed the depth before lifting them up, "Brother, the water depth is about three meters. It will take at least more than three hours to drain this area."

"It's okay. We have at least seven hours before the next water level rises. That's enough."

The water pump started working, and the three of them were fine. Zhao Ping smiled and stretched out his hand, "Well, give me your fishing line and hook, and I will catch fish."

Zhao Qin was a little speechless. He was about to do it, but seeing how addicted his brother was, he still gave him a set of threads. Forget it, he would buy two more sets in the system when he went back in the evening. It was a bit uncomfortable to take out another set now. explain.

Zhao Ping took the line hook to the boat, smashed open the snails he picked up before with a sand shovel, and used the snail meat as bait.

"Hey, it's quite deep here." Zhao Ping sat on the boat and said while putting out the line.

Zhao Qin ignored him, and his eyes stayed on the stone wall next to him. The cracks in the stone were covered with layers of strange things. At first glance, they looked like large white melon seeds.
