Chapter 144: Small Island Checkpoints (monthly ticket plus two updates)
Ye Yaodong ate a large bowl of pumpkin porridge sprinkled with sugar, without any other vegetables.
All the dishes at yesterday's banquet were swept away, and there was nothing left at all. It was rare for everyone to eat something good, so they all ate it open. There was basically no good food left, most of them were on discs.
The tables, chairs, benches, and bowls and chopsticks were all rented. After packing them yesterday, Father Ye just used a cart to push them away and return them. There was nothing for him to do today, he just had to collect the nets and go back to his hometown to settle accounts.
After he finished eating the pumpkin porridge, he told Lin Xiuqing to just look after the children at home and not to wander around, and to wait until he came back to carry out the water fetching work.
Although in her previous life she had to do all the work of fetching water and cutting firewood without doing anything, she was not afraid of 10,000 yuan, just afraid of the unexpected. Many things had changed in this life.
"I know, I'm not a three-year-old child, I'll pay attention, don't worry." Lin Xiuqing smiled and handed him the bucket he usually loaded with goods, urging him to go out.
Ye Yaodong nodded, took the bucket and left the new home, but paused at the door. He looked up at the red lantern hanging at the door and felt full of motivation again.
He turned around and strode outside, walking along the beach to the shore.
Sure enough, my new home is very close, and the journey to the pier is shortened by half.
Early in the morning, the outside of the pier was very lively, with villagers coming and going. Their new home is on the edge of the beach. This morning, you could not hear the voices in the village, it was quiet.
After some comparison, I suddenly discovered that by living near the beach, the probability of his wife’s pregnancy being discovered was also much lower. It was really a wise choice to choose this place!
After greeting acquaintances at the pier, he untied the rope and boarded his small wooden boat, then propped it open with a bamboo pole and continued towards the sea to start today's work.
A new day, a new starting point.
He now has 50 floor cages, which can be placed in 5 rows.
He pulled up the floor cage full of hope, only to find that it was empty again???
"The dog competition thing that is riding on grass and riding on horses has been stolen again. XXX is riding on horses..."
Ye Yaodong looked around at the sea and cursed angrily that it had been stolen again.
"You bitch, don't let me catch you. If you get caught and beaten, your parents won't even know you. You'll be fooled by others, and you'll be stolen from every day."
He got very angry early in the morning. He was in a good mood at first, but he was so angry.
He cursed and poured out the three or two small fish and shrimps from the kitten inside, and also threw a few pufferfish back into the sea.
Last time I brought a bucket back and said I was going to kill him, but my father almost beat me up again because he said he hadn't eaten anything...
Of course they don’t understand the deliciousness of puffer fish if they have never tasted it.
He repeatedly promised that he would handle it well, but no one believed him, and he was reprimanded by his whole family. Even the old lady nervously kept stressing to him that he could not eat.
He had to give up...
In fact, he used to idle on the big ship and did a lot...
With a depressed mood, he pulled up a second net. This time he felt relieved. This net had not been stolen, and there were still a few orchid crabs.
After collecting all the fishing nets, my depressed mood was relieved. Fortunately, only one net was stolen, and today's harvest was not bad.
Around the Mid-Autumn Festival, the crabs were full of fat and there were a lot more red crabs. After only five rows of ground dragons, he caught five more red crabs and three blue crabs.
It's a pity that one of the red crabs has a broken leg, and the new legs are only a little bigger when they grow out, so they can't be sold at a high price. It's a good choice to take it home and eat it, which will give strength to the two children.
In the past, when there was a big family in the house, one person could only have a mouthful of soup if they left some good things back. Now that they are separated, the wife and children can also eat two more mouthfuls.
When it comes to food, Ye Yaodong has always been willing to give up. No matter how much money he has, he cannot miss a bite of food. His body is his capital. In his last life, his two children only grew to a little over 1.7 meters. Although people in the south are generally shorter, he is both 1.8 meters tall.
Ah, it must be malnutrition, otherwise he wouldn't be so short.
Just as he was about to take the boat out a little further and catch a few more fish to make up the number, he saw someone not far away shouting to him: "A Dong?"
He looked up in confusion and saw that it was his eldest brother's friend Chen Yongfeng, who was also a floor cage worker, "Ah? What are you doing?"
Chen Yongfeng rowed the boat closer. He was also a small wooden boat. "Have you finished collecting the cages just now?"
"It's all over, what are you doing? You were also hacked?"
"Yes, I don't know which bastard XXX is... who stole three rows of floor cages from me. It was fine the other day, but only one row was stolen. Today, three rows are missing. I'm so angry.
"
Hearing that three rows had been stolen from him, Ye Yaodong felt balanced. At least he had only had one row stolen.
Most people have this mentality. As long as there are people who are worse off than me, I will be comforted.
But he still cursed along with him, "Yes, it must have been done by someone in the village. He stole the net every three days and beat him to death when he was found."
"My brother's Korean Internet was also stolen yesterday. He has been very arrogant recently. He even steals the Internet every three days."
Ye Yaodong frowned, "There's no way to catch it. You can't just float on the sea and guard it all day long?"
"That's why it's troublesome. Who has the time to wait on the sea all the time? Besides, there are so many ships coming and going on the sea. Who knows who stole it?"
Ye Yaodong thought the same way, so he was depressed.
"Forget it, I just came over to ask and see. There are still many people who have been stolen from the Internet, so I will go back first." Chen Yongfeng just saw an acquaintance, so he came over to complain, and then he finished
Planning to go back.
After he left, Ye Yaodong was thinking in his mind that there were many people coming and going at their dock during the day, and people who stole the nets would not be able to carry the goods ashore with such arrogance. Unless they had their own boats and were also releasing the nets, there would be nothing to say.
, unless both people get the stolen goods, they won’t be able to catch them even if they want to.
No matter how he thought about it, he shook his head and had to forget it for now. It was better not to waste time and go fishing for a few rods. He would have to go home for lunch later.
He rowed the boat and randomly found a place with no buoys nearby, but he saw a small island not far away.
Thinking that today is the 27th of the lunar calendar, and it will be the first day of the Lunar New Year in a few days, why not go there and check out some places?
With this thought in his mind, he also took action and rowed the boat over.
I saw that the reefs around this small island were rugged and steep. The tide was currently high, and the sea breeze pushed the waves to constantly hit the rocks, causing large splashes of water.
He walked around the island and found a scorpion-like reef on the east side. When the waves were not impacting, a little bit of sand was temporarily exposed underneath, but it was quickly filled up by the tide, and a red seal appeared.
He was pushed up by the sea water, stranded for a while, and then immediately returned to the sea, which made him feel itchy.
Okay, that’s it!
We can go to the island from this Scorpion Reef on the first day of the new year. It seems that we don’t have to wait for the first day of the new year. The beach will be exposed when the tide recedes here.
He saw mussels, bergamots, barnacles, etc. growing densely on the reef. On the Scorpion Reef, he also saw oversized spat, which he estimated to be wild oysters, not sea oysters.
There are essential differences between sea oysters and raw oysters, but it is easy for laymen to confuse them, and unscrupulous vendors may use sea oysters as oysters and sell them to uninformed people.
After stepping on the spot, he drove the boat out to the sea with satisfaction, stopped on the sea not far from the island, and took out his precious broken fishing rod.
