Hearing what his wife said, Xia Yingwu couldn't say anything else.

Father Xia went out for a trip and came back soon after borrowing a tricycle. He put all the red mushrooms into a basket. After loading the tricycle, Father Xia picked up a raincloth and covered it, reminding them to go early and come back early, so as not to delay. .

"Aqin, why don't you go home and go hiking with us here? It's too exciting."

After the tricycle left, Xia Yingjie took out his cigarette and gave it to Zhao Qin, half joking and half serious.

"Ajie, when are we going to collect the cage?"

Before Xia Yingjie could reply, Zhao Qin's cell phone rang. After seeing that the call was from his elder brother, he stepped aside and answered it.

"Aqin, what's going on with your phone? I've called several times but nothing goes through."

"We are heading up the mountain. There is no signal on the mountain. Has the boat checked clearly?"

"I don't know who the fuck did it. He drained out all the fuel in our fuel tank and filled a tank of seawater. This is still light, but he actually poured seawater into the engine through the oil port.

The entire engine needs to be dismantled and overhauled. Damn it, don't let me know who it is. "

Zhao Qin made a soft noise and then said: "Brother, you can pick grapefruits on the mountain in the past two days. Since you can't go out to the sea, you can just do the work in the mountain. I'll talk about it when I get back."

"No, aren't you angry? I think there are only a few companies that do it..."

"Brother, we can't make trouble if we don't have evidence, otherwise we won't care. You can go about your work on the mountain first."

After comforting his elder brother for a few words and reminding him to stay calm at this time, Zhao Qin hung up the phone.

"I heard it was my eldest brother. Are you okay at home?" Zhao Mei asked.

"It's okay, just ask me when I'll be back. The grapefruits on the mountain can be picked. If you want me to go back and help, look at what a coincidence. I came here and avoided the farm work on the mountain."

Seeing that he was laughing so hard, Zhao Mei patted him on the arm angrily.

"Let's go, let's collect the cage." Xia Yingjie said and returned home. He wanted to ride a motorcycle and prepare some bait.

"You're not tired after traveling so long in the morning." Although Zhao Mei said this, she didn't mean to stop him.

"Uncle, let me go with you." Aze was sweating from playing somewhere. He just ran back and heard that he was going to collect the cage, so he wanted to follow.

"Xia Hongze, have you finished your summer homework?" Zhao Mei's voice came from inside the room.

"Uncle, go ahead, I'll run away first." Aze ran out of the yard again in a hurry.

Zhao Qin thought for a while and took a snakeskin bag, planning to pack the harvest later, just in case.

When they came to the outside, Xia Yingjie had already tied the bucket and the two set off.

Similarly, he collected the ground cage in the ditch first. When he received the third cage, as soon as it was pulled out of the water, Xia Yingjie said with great joy: "Aqin, it seems that I am also very lucky today, there is a turtle."

Zhao Qin took a look and saw that it weighed about a kilogram, barely enough for a meal.

As a result, the last cage in the ditch contained another one, and it was even bigger, weighing almost two kilograms. Xia Yingjie was so excited that he wished he could hug the turtle and give it a kiss.

No wonder, Zhao Qin asked him the price. Wild ones weighing more than a pound can be sold for at least 100 yuan a pound. These two turtles were worth more than all the cages the day before yesterday.

Perhaps he thought this place was a profitable place, so Xia Yingjie didn't change the place and added new bait and put it inside.

Zhao Qin also took a closer look at his bait. It should be chopped pork liver, plus chicken and duck offal.

After moving to another place to harvest, Xia Yingjie was destined to be lucky today. Although he didn't receive any soft-shelled turtles, he did receive a lot of eels, all of which were more than two taels in size.

After collecting half of the cages, Xia Yingjie calculated his income and found that it was nearly 500 yuan. He was very happy.

Finally, they reached the creek. Zhao Qin was not in a hurry to collect his cage, but watched Xia Yingjie busy.

Although the first cage didn't contain anything valuable, it did catch a lot of creek grouper and a good army fish.

Then I caught several in a row, almost all of them were empty, and I also caught a large-mouth catfish weighing more than three kilograms, which should be sold for more than ten yuan a kilogram.

"Aqin, let's take it from you. Do you do it yourself or should I help you?"

"I will do it myself."

Zhao Qin said and took a look at the terrain. The first cage was right here, in a small pool. He walked over and pulled up the ground cage and found that it was clean and there was not even a croaker.

"Hahaha, Aqin, you are here to help my elder brother clean the Internet." Xia Yingjie smiled unkindly.

Seeing Zhao Qin's unkind look, he reluctantly put away his smile and comforted him: "It's okay, the air force is normal. Anyway, you picked up so many anomatis and red mushrooms this morning."

After saying that, the smile on Xia Yingjie's face really disappeared, and he cursed in his heart, this birdman is so lucky, why can't he come across the patches of Anomatis and Russula?

Then I went to collect the second cage and walked down for about [-] or [-] meters. There was also a pool.

There are many stones next to this pool. Although the water is deep, you can see the bottom because it is so clear. There are also layers of extremely thick moss attached to the stones beside the water.

When he got out of the cage, Xia Yingjie also said that there would be no goods in such clear water.

When he first arrived, he saw the cage shaking gently. He knew that he must have won the prize, and it was not small. However, because it was lowered vertically, he could not see clearly what was in the fish bag underneath.

He untied the rope on the side and started to pull the cage. Before he even got out of the water, he heard Xia Yingwu swear, "Damn it, there is such a big turtle here."

Zhao Qin pulled out the cage completely, and then he saw clearly the harvest underneath. There was not just one, but two. One was stuck in the middle of the cage, and the other fell into the bottom fish bag.

He scratched his head in confusion. Damn, the mouth of the net wasn't very big. How did such a big turtle get in?

I guess if there was a live broadcast now, there would be a lot of parallel importers complaining that he was fake and unprofessional.

The one in the fish collection bag is smaller, about two kilograms, but the one stuck in the middle is bigger, probably about six or seven kilograms. It depends on how old it is. If it is old, it will definitely be more valuable.

The value of a soft-shelled turtle does not entirely depend on its size, but also on its age. It is generally believed that the older the soft-shelled turtle is, the more valuable it is.

Xia Yingwu lost his voice because he was autistic. Originally, in the afternoon, he thought that he was not unlucky. Without comparison, there would be no harm. What he gained from one cage was compared to dozens of cages.

"You, a birdman, are very lucky."

"Shut up, you birdie." Zhao Qin had ever suffered a verbal defeat before, "Stop talking nonsense, first help me see if this big one is old?"

Xia Yingjie pinched the two gaps between the turtle's hind legs and raised the turtle for a closer look. "Ten years later, the mustache is very clear and it is still a male. This one will definitely fetch a good price."

Then he grabbed another one and took a look at it, "This one is of a pretty good vintage. It's a female. The two should be a pair."

"How to distinguish between male and female?" Zhao Qin was curious. Although he had caught turtles before, he had never studied the male and female in detail.

"Simple, the female is thick and the male is flat. The female's tail is short and thick and usually does not show the edge of the skirt. The male's is slender and can be clearly seen from the back."
