Chapter 17

The first half of the month.

Zhao Dahai has a mesh bag in his left hand and a mesh bag in his right hand. He bends his waist and walks out, the sea water starts to rise, and the soft soil in the mangrove forest is bubbling water. Every time he steps on it, he sinks directly into his calf. It is very strenuous and sweaty. Don't want money to flow non-stop.I don't know how long it took before I got out of the mangrove forest, and there was an open space in front of my eyes, and the familiar coast suddenly appeared in front of me. The sea breeze blew over, and I couldn't help but take a few deep breaths.

Zhao Dahai washed his hands and feet with sea water, especially the mangrove sap stuck to his face. In order to hurry up, he got out before the sea rose, and walked quickly. I caught two fiddler crabs from under my clothes by my neck, and fell into them when I was drilling into the mangrove forest. I didn't bother to catch them, and now I'm not polite, just throw a big foot on the ground and step on it to avenge my revenge.

Zhao Dahai rested for a while, and walked to the edge of a mangrove forest. Before going in, for convenience, he found a stone in the net bag containing mantis shrimp and hairy clams and pressed it on the top of a hidden tree. You can't find it if you don't look carefully. Generally speaking, even if you really see it, you know it belongs to the owner, it's not something valuable, and no one takes it randomly.

Zhao Dahai took a flashlight to shine a few times, looking for a place, just about to walk over, when he found something lying on the net bag, he was startled, looked carefully, and his heart immediately thumped wildly.A huge blue crab was lying on the net bag, waving its two pincers, and was gnawing on the little octopus in the net bag.

Zhao Dahai didn't dare to walk fast, let alone use force, for fear of causing splashes, he carefully and slowly touched the back of the blue crab, stretched out his hand to hold it, and began to pinch it.

"Hahaha!"

"Hahaha!"

"No way?"

"Is there such a thing in the world?"

"It's really luck today and I can't stop it."

Zhao Dahai was very happy.I went into the mangrove during the day, and only dug one blue crab in the afternoon, but since it got dark, all the blue crabs in the mangrove came out like crazy, and I found my hands cramped. Net bag, who would have thought of running into a big blue crab.About a catty and a half tall, this one can only be sold for 150 yuan.

Zhao Dahai washed the blue crab in sea water, lifted it up, and took the rope to tie it up.

"Isn't it?"

"Butter crab?"

Zhao Dahai's eyes widened at once. Normally blue crabs are dark blue, but this one in his hand is dark yellow. He picked up the flashlight and took a careful look, especially the pointed caps on both sides of the blue crab and the last small tip of the claws. The more I watched it, the more excited I became. I watched it three times in a row, and I was 100% sure that I read it correctly.

Butter crab is a type of blue crab.The blue crab is covered with paste. Under certain conditions, it will become a special kind of blue crab. The quality is far superior to that of ordinary blue crabs. The whole crab is as if soaked in the paste, and the whole body is bright yellow. No one knows why this happened Such a change may be due to the high temperature of the sun after the blue crab is covered with ointment that "melts" and seeps into all parts of the crab or other reasons.The meat of butter crab is as tender as jade, and the ointment is rich and fragrant. It is the king of blue crabs.

Zhao Dahai took the rope and carefully tied it up. A half-jin blue crab can be sold for about 150 yuan, and the same size can be sold for 500 yuan. Such a butter crab can almost be worth as much as the previous day More than [-] catties of crab goby arrived.

The small pier in front of the village.

A few lights were on and it was very dim.

The dozen or twenty fishing boats docked kept shaking with the waves.

Liu Bin and Zhong Shizhu were squatting, with cigarettes in their mouths, puffing heavily, and puffs of smoke spewed out, their brows were furrowed tightly, and their expressions were a little unsightly.

"Hey!"

"Damn it!"

"How can I go to sea in this weather?!"

Liu Bin looked at the sea.It was calm an hour ago, and now there are small waves one after another. Don’t look at it now, it will be one or two meters in a few hours. After dinner, I came to the fishing boat to pack up my things and prepare to go to sea tomorrow morning. Now I can only work stare.

"What else can I do?!"

"The weather forecast says there will be winds of force seven or eight."

Zhong Shizhu shook his head.It is definitely not possible to go to sea in this kind of weather, and you may have to stay at home for the next three to five days or even a week, unable to do anything.People who go fishing have no income if they can't go to sea, and they are sitting on nothing.

Liu Bin and Zhong Shizhu saw someone walking over with a flashlight, and after waiting for a while, they saw that it was Zhao Shi.

"Uncle Zhao."

"Why did you come here?!"

Liu Bin said hello, and suddenly thought of Zhao Dahai whom he had seen in the afternoon, and thought of the few trees he had planted. He had to go to the mountain tomorrow to dig up those few trees.

"The wind changes the sky."

"I can't sit still at home."

"Come out and have a look."

Zhao Shi shined his flashlight on the surface of the sea, saw the waves one after another, and sighed, it was a white-headed wave. In this kind of weather, the fishermen in the whole village had to stay at home, and the fishing boats were too small to carry them. There is no difference between going to sea and dying.

"what?"

"Is there someone there?"

Zhong Shizhu shouted and pointed forward.

Zhao Shi and Liu Bin turned their heads and saw that there was a light on the beach towards the mangrove forest in the west of the village, and they looked like fireflies from a distance. They were walking with a flashlight.

who?
Zhao Shi, Liu Bin, and Zhong Shizhu were a little curious. It looked like they came back from the mangrove forest, so they didn't know who they were.

Zhao Dahai held a flashlight in one hand to illuminate the road, and supported the pole with the other to carry the mud crab. He was so happy that he was as happy as drinking honey.

"Second grandpa."

"You're here for the first time?"

Zhao Dahai walked to the small pier in front of the village, and saw Zhao Shi at a glance, with Zhong Shizhu and Liu Bin next to him, and the three of them were staring at him with wide eyes.

"Hey!"

"The sea."

"What are you doing here?"

"What's in the net bag? It looks like blue crabs?"

Liu Bin stood up abruptly, staring at the net bag that Zhao Dahai carried on the shoulder pole. The light was dim, so he couldn't see clearly, but he shouldn't be mistaken.

"what?"

"So many blue crabs!"

Zhong Shizhu was taken aback.At the beginning, Liu Bin didn't pay attention to it, but Liu Bin took a closer look at what he said. It was really a blue crab, and the blue crab was carried on two net bag poles, which weighed dozens of catties.He couldn't see his size clearly, no matter what he said at first glance, he couldn't get away with tens of dollars a catty, Zhao Dahai would earn a lot now.

Zhao Dahai smiled and nodded.

"The sea."

"Just passing by, Ni grandma Zhong Cuihua was waiting at the door."

"Go back quickly!"

Zhao Shi shouted, turned around and left.

Zhao Dahai smiled at Zhong Shizhu and Liu Bin, and followed Zhao Shi back to the village with a blue crab.

"Damn it!"

"How can there be so many blue crabs in the mangroves?"

Liu Bin watched Zhao Dahai turn a corner, but couldn't see the light of the flashlight.

"Who knows what's going on?"

Zhong Shizhu shook his head.Zhao Dahai was carrying the blue crab on a pole just now, it was too scary.Everyone in the village knew that there were blue crabs in Hongcun Forest, but no one thought there were so many.

"You can't let others know about this."

Liu Bin looked at the mangrove forest in the distance.

"Who said no?"

"It's enough for the two of us to know."

Zhong Shizhu nodded.There are blue crabs in the mangrove forest, and there are many blue crabs. Otherwise, Zhao Dahai would not have such a harvest. The question is whether there are still any. The goby thing.
