It's rare to have leisure time. For more than a month, I worked hard to divide the jellyfish. At the end of the day, many times I didn't even have time to raise my head, I kept my head down.
He even suspected that he would get cervical spondylosis if he continued.
Undoubtedly, the flood season is tiring, but it is also joyful. This place relies on jellyfish throughout the year.
In recent times, he has also discovered that there are not many trawlers in the town. Basically, they only stop in the town because it is inconvenient to dock in nearby villages. Therefore, the docks in the town are basically filled with their boats, and other local boats are small boats.
Most of them are wooden boats.
However, it is impossible for there to be so few trawlers in coastal areas. After all, the mountains depend on the mountains and the sea depends on the sea. In the past, there were many fishing boats released after the fishery production brigade was disbanded.
It's all like this over there. It makes no sense that there are so few fishing boats here, and the town here is just as lively and prosperous as over there.
The only explanation is probably that these ships were all engaged in smuggling and did not dock during the day.
Thinking of the large number of fishing boats they encountered when they returned home from fishing last year, he felt that his guess was correct.
Therefore, there is little offshore fishing here, and small wooden boats are basically around the coast. The probability of being discovered in this trench is also reduced, which makes it easier for them.
Probably they won't be discovered in the next few years. As long as they stay together and be careful and don't let others follow them, they should be able to fish for a few more years, but by then there will be more and more fishing boats coming to the area.
If there are more monks, there will be less porridge.
Next year, everyone will not have the income from this year, and next year they will only be able to earn for half a month, so this position will probably be emptied.
Sad, at least I made a lot of money this year, which is enough to make up for it.
Maybe next year we can buy a few more small wooden boats. They are small and only a few meters long. It costs about a hundred yuan. We can buy five or six of them and put them on the boat. We can bring them over together and ask a few more people to fish them. Once the boats are full, they will be sent to them.
The big ship goes to divide.
Hum, maximize the benefits, and you can probably earn a little more this way.
You have more ships, but I have more!
While he was thinking about it, some fishing boats came back one after another.
Looking at the empty trench, although everyone had been mentally prepared for it, they were still very sorry.
Ye Yaodong also stood up and shouted to the others: "It's all empty. It's gone. They all went out to fish separately. You can also fish for yours. Anyway, the delivery time remains the same. You just have to find the right time to dock."
.”
From now on, it's up to them whether they want to cooperate or not.
After all, they all fished separately and didn't get together, so there was no way for one boat to fish and one boat to dock, but it didn't last long.
"Then let's go first..."
"We also make our own money..."
"Then let's go too..."
Another group of people were sent away one after another. They stood at the stern and watched their ship disappear little by little, and then returned to the middle of the ship.
At this moment, I have been fishing intermittently, and I have done more or less hundreds of fish. It is okay to be so-so. It is better to wait here and wait for the rabbit than to wander around in the sea outside.
"Dad!"
Father Ye turned around and looked at him doubtfully.
"I want to go down to the water and have a look."
"Now?"
"Yes, all the other boats have left, and we are the only ones left here. I'll go down and take a look, see what the trench below looks like, and also see if there are any jellyfish down there. Are there many?"
"There is a trench underneath, it should be very deep..."
"Don't worry, I can only go down to ten or twenty meters before coming up. The pipe is not long enough. This is offshore, and it is right on the coast. The trench is not likely to be very deep, not when the water is clear.
Can you see a little bit?"
Father Ye frowned, thinking that he was already familiar with going into the sea, "Then...then be careful...if something seems wrong, come up quickly, and don't go down too deep."
"I know."
Ye Yaodong immediately went to the cabin to get his flippers and other items, put them on, and opened the cloth and nylon bag covering the machine.
The boatmen on the ship were very surprised when they saw his strange attire.
"A Dong? Are you going into the water dressed like this?"
"What are these on you?"
"Why do these things on these feet look like duck flippers?"
"Don't you just jump in when you dive into the water? Why do you bring these weird things with you? What is this pipe for..."
Ye Yaodong didn't explain, he just said that you don't understand, just watch.
"Also, don't touch this machine, and don't move the boat. Just stop where it is and let another boat fish it out. You can either rest on the boat or go to another boat."
Father Ye also drove the boat over while he was tinkering, and climbed over himself, feeling more relieved with him watching.
Just let them catch the goods on the other boat themselves. After all, after watching it for so long, they all know how to do it, and no one needs to tell them.
Ye Yaodong also went into the water with familiarity.
After everyone watched in curiosity for a while, they didn't care much when they saw someone going into the water.
But Father Ye rushed everyone else on the boat to another boat. Anyway, this boat was stationary and could not fish. Those on the boat could only sit there and watch.
It would be better for them all to go to another boat and let them fish by themselves. They can do whatever they want, as long as he is here to watch.
Everyone was obedient and cooperated to climb onto another boat, and then the boat kept moving as jellyfish emerged nearby.
Most people could only sit there and watch the scenery, or sit there in a daze, and some even dozed off. There really wasn't that much work to do.
Ye Yaodong slowly went down into the water. The water in this area was still quite blue and crystal clear. If you ignore the trench close to the shore, the seabed here is not very deep.
The dark trench on the edge, like a black hole, is particularly conspicuous.
Various creatures, small fish and shellfish were swimming around under the water, and there were also quite a few jellyfish. They were just doing underwater movements, constantly moving back and forth and shaking without floating up.
He was not in a hurry to swim to the edge of the trench, but wandered around the surrounding water and observed the terrain. Unexpectedly, there were quite a lot of sea urchins on the strange-shaped seabed rocks.
I originally planned to come down and check it out casually, but he just habitually carried a small net bag with him, thinking that he could put it in it in case he had any strange and valuable goods.
After walking around for a long time, I didn't see anything valuable. There were very few fish, only some small fish and shrimps. The conches on the rocks were also very small, let alone abalone and the like.
Now it seemed that he could only hold these sea urchins, but he touched his lower back, and it seemed that he didn't bring a hook. He didn't know what he would encounter every time he went into the water, and of course he was not fully prepared.
After thinking about filling this small net bag, he went up and broke off a few to avoid returning empty-handed.
Some of these sea urchins are poisonous. If the calcified spines of the sea urchin prick the skin, it will cause severe pain, local redness and swelling. If not treated appropriately, granulomas may occur after 2 or 3 months.
He also wears gloves on his hands, so it won't be a big problem if he is careful.
Each of these sea urchins grows on the reef, firmly adhering to it and eating the algae on the reef.
He slowly and gently swam to the edge of the reef, being careful not to muddy the water, and slowly stretched out his hands to grasp the sea urchin's spines.
Without using any force, he grabbed the thorns of the sea urchin, shook it from side to side twice, and used skill to make the sea urchin break away from the rock and put it into the net bag.
The black thorns look like devil's thorns, but they contain the essence of the sea inside, making stewed eggs delicious.
These sea urchins in the offshore look relatively small, maybe a little bigger than a table tennis ball, and they are quite cheap, but they seem to be quite large in number on the reef here.
There are thousands of rocks in one piece, and scattered rocks are scattered everywhere.
If you hook them all, you should be able to get two or three baskets, which weigh about a hundred kilograms, and sell them for about ten yuan, which is better than nothing. There are not many jellyfish anyway, and it won't take much time to bring a hook down later to do this.
In fact, there are sea urchins in the deep sea, and the sea urchins in the deep sea are very large and have long spines. Some can grow up to twenty or thirty centimeters. They are not comparable to the small species of sea urchins found in the sea. They are also expensive. After all, seafood is what we eat.
Big.
However, it is difficult to get deep-sea sea urchins these days. The fishing technology is not enough and the quantity is small, so we can only eat those from offshore.
Nowadays, offshore resources are abundant, and even everyone can’t eat them.
Ye Yaodong just fiddled with it for a while, and after filling up the net bag, he stopped doing it. When he came down later, he would bring a larger suit, and he would come down two or three times and catch everything in one go.
He swam toward the trench again.
