Rebirth of a fishing village: starting from Hua Axiang in Jiehu Village

Zhao Dahai walked into the yard sweating profusely. The sun was hanging in the middle of the sky and it was very hot. He sold the jumping fish and bought vegetables and hurried back immediately.

"grandmother."

“The price of jumping fish is good.”

"It sold for more than 1,300 yuan."

Zhao Dahai poured a bowl of water and walked into the main room to tell Zhong Cuihua how much money he made while drinking.

"Yo!"

"This is really good."

"How did you sell it for so much money?!"

Zhong Cuihua was very surprised. When did the jumping fish become so valuable?

"grandmother."

"I was wondering if I should continue to catch some."

Zhao Dahai told Zhong Cuihua the whole process. Catching jumping fish is really hard, but the price is really good.

Zhong Cuihua shook her head. There were indeed a lot of jumping fish on the mudflat in front of the mangrove forest in the village. I caught them hard for a few days. It’s hard to say how many are left. One thing is for sure. This fish is not a fool. If it is frightened, it must not be that easy to catch. , the key is that it is impossible to maintain this price.

Zhao Dahai scratched the back of his head. That was indeed what happened. He had been chasing the mudflats for several days and had caught all the jumping fish that were easy to catch. The remaining ones were not easy to deal with. Liu Gang was not a fool. Today, he It happened to be sold at a high price, so the next trip will definitely not be as good. After thinking about it this way, it is not particularly cost-effective to continue catching jumping fish.

"grandmother."

"What you said makes sense."

"Think about something else first. There is really no way to catch the jumping fish again."

"Anyway, the jumping fish is where it is, and it can't fly to the sky."

Zhao Dahai was not worried at all that the people in the village would flock to him after they found out that he had made money by catching jumping fish. This work was too hard. He had no fishing boat and could not go out to sea to do such a thing, and few others were willing.

Zhao Dahai told Zhong Cuihua that he planned to buy a second-hand motorcycle, or at least a bicycle, to save time when going to the town to sell fish or buy things. Now he only relies on two legs, and it takes four hours to go back and forth, which is too delayed. For many things, it is true that you have to save money to repair a fishing boat, but it is more cost-effective to buy a motorcycle or a bicycle instead of rushing back and forth to sell fish and earn more money.

"Hehehe!"

"The sea."

"It's up to you to decide these things."

"You are in charge. You don't have to tell me everything."

Zhong Cuihua shook her head.

"An old man in a family is like a treasure. We have to discuss things!"

Zhao Dahai saw that it was almost time and went to the kitchen to start cooking lunch. He didn't want to eat the jumping fish, so he sold them all. He fried two salted fish, fried a plate of vegetables he just bought, and peeled two sweet potatoes. , Put it in the rice and cook together, this is the meal for noon.

After Zhao Dahai finished his lunch, he couldn't help but tell his grandma Zhong Cuihua to go back to the room to sleep, and took the net to weave the fishing net by herself. She didn't stop changing hands until Cuihua woke up at four o'clock in the afternoon.

Zhao Dahai walked out of the yard and walked towards the small pier. He walked around a few times to see if he could figure out what to do next to make some money. As soon as he walked there, Zhong Shizhu shouted to him from a distance and waved. , walk over immediately.

“Have there been any fish lately?!”

Zhao Dahai boarded Zhong Shizhu's fishing boat.

"Where did the fish come from?!"

"They're all small fish."

"Three or five catties or ten or eight catties can always be caught."

"It's okay to earn some money to support the family, but it's difficult to make a fortune."

"Didn't you catch jumping fish a few days ago?!"

"Have you sold it yet?!"

Zhong Shizhu sighed, the number of fish caught these days is a bit small.

Zhao Dahai nodded, and sold a dozen catties of jumping fish for more than a thousand yuan.

Zhong Shizhu didn't expect Zhao Dahai to catch so many jumping fish. I made more than a thousand yuan in three days, which was much more than I earned. I was just thinking about catching jumping fish, but I gave up immediately. This job was really too tiring.

"Hehehe!"

"What kind of jumping fish are caught by fishing boats?!"

Zhao Dahai smiled, he could do nothing without a fishing boat, and a fishing boat would definitely not catch jumping fish.

"The sea."

"How about going out to sea on my fishing boat?! In the next one or two months, I will only fish without casting nets. How many people can the fishing boat hold?"

Zhong Shizhu patted the side of his fishing boat. He couldn't catch any fish with his net recently, so he planned to try fishing on the reef. If he cast a net in a place like this, it would be stuck, and the fish caught would not be worth the loss of the net. , I originally wanted to say that I don’t need money, I have to go to sea every day, there are many people and few people, and I don’t need much fuel, but I swallowed the words abruptly

"Hehehe!"

"Forget it."

"See what you can catch around the dock."

Zhao Dahai shook his head. Zhong Shizhu didn't ask if he wanted money, but it was impossible for him not to give it. No one's fishing boat just falls from the sky. The diesel engine drinks oil instead of sea water, so you have to pay for it. You definitely have to pay to go out to sea on Zhongshizhu's fishing boat. The market price is at least 150 yuan a day, or even 200 yuan. Even though this is a village, the money has to be given. If you don't give it, you will owe a favor. If you owe a favor, you will have to pay it back sooner or later. There is no fishing boat. It is more difficult and harder to make money when going to sea, so we can only endure it.

Zhao Dahai and Zhong Shizhu were talking to each other, looking left and right from time to time. Their minds kept thinking about how to make money next. They accidentally looked down and saw a small dark red fish swimming in the corner of the fishing boat's live cabin. .

"what fish is this?!"

"Why don't you sell it?!"

Zhao Dahai was a little strange, the water surface was a little reflective, so he couldn't see what kind of fish it was.

Zhong Shizhu reached out to catch the fish and threw it on the deck.

Zhao Dahai could now clearly see that it was Shi Jiugong. In some places, it is called tiger fish. This kind of fish is often found on the reefs. There are very many of them. It is not a valuable fish, especially the one in front of him is not much bigger than a thumb. It is worthless at all, no wonder it is not sold in the live cabin.

Shi Jiugong? !

correct!

Why didn't you think of this?

Zhao Dahai patted his forehead hard.

Other fish can't get out of the sea without fishing boats, but the Nineteenth Fish is no problem.

"You don't want to catch Shi Jiugong, do you?!"

Zhong Shizhu watched Zhao Dahai stare at the Nineteenth Duke jumping up and down on the deck.

Zhao Dahai nodded. He indeed planned to fish for the Nineteenth Gong. There were rocks wherever there were, so there was no need for a fishing boat to go out to sea.

"Why!"

"At the east end of the village, where you fish for crab and tiger fish, there are many of them. But they are relatively small."

"Not worth the money."

Zhong Shizhu pointed to the reef area at the east end of the village. There were not only Shi Jiugong there, but also a lot of them, but they were small.

Zhao Dahai smiled. Shi Jiugong is indeed worthless, but no matter how worthless it is, it is still money. Who can catch small fish if he can catch big fish? When people are poor, there is nothing to be picky about.

Zhao Dahai and Zhong Shizhu chatted for a while, then left the dock and hurried home, having to make some preparations.

Zhong Shizhu looked at Zhao Dahai's leaving figure and curled his lips. Shi Jiugong? They were just kids fishing for fun, serious people who went out to sea to fish, and no one took a fancy to them. They thought they could make money fishing for this thing.
