Rebirth of Fishing Village: Starting from Hua Axiang in Jiehu Village

Chapter 2 Chasing the sea on a moonlit night and worrying about making money

"what?"

"This is how the same thing?"

……

"Watching the house being cleaned all day."

……

"Who knows?"

"A baby with no father or mother. Poor!"

……

"Humph!"

"The prodigal son turned back? In a few days, I'll be sneaking around again!"

……

People appeared around in twos and threes, busy cleaning the house all day, they were all from the same village, it was impossible not to attract attention, especially when the fire was burning, there was a lot of movement, and it was dinner time, they all came out and pointed.

Zhao Dahai ignored it, turned around and walked back to the yard, and closed the door. It was far away and he couldn't hear clearly, but there must be nothing good to say. In the past two years, he has heard too much.

Who called himself a jerk?

Bastards have no human rights!
It's normal to point and say a few ugly words.

Zhao Dahai walked into the kitchen, lit the hay and stuffed it into the stove, set up small firewood, added water to the pot, and started cooking.

"The sea."

"Come."

"You take the money!"

"Go to the town tomorrow to buy some fun and delicious food!"

Zhao Dahai saw Zhong Cuihua walk in with a smile on his face, and handed it over with five yuan in his hand. Just now, someone outside the yard shouted to collect the fishing net. This must be the wages for the completed fishing net.

"Hey!"

"grandmother!"

"What are you doing?"

"I'm done."

"I want to spend myself to earn."

"You take the money!"

Zhao Dahai shook his head, put the low stool beside him, and pulled Zhong Cuihua to sit down.

"Good good!"

"The grandma will keep it for you. When you give it up, tell grandma if you don't need it, I will save it for you, use it for your wife, or buy candy for my great-grandson."

Zhong Cuihua smiled, sat down slowly with her hands on her knees, and added a handful of firewood to the stove.

Zhao Dahai was a little dumbfounded.Saving money to marry a daughter-in-law is barely justified, but this great-grandson is far away from buying candy.

"Row!"

"grandmother."

"Then you keep it. In two years, I will marry a daughter-in-law and give birth to three or five children. I will take it with you for fun."

Zhao Dahai said with a smile, this is Zhong Cuihua's greatest hope.

Zhong Cuihua laughed so hard that she couldn't see her eyes.

After Zhao Dahai cooked the rice, there was no food at home, so he mixed some salt and filled his stomach. After thinking about it, he told Zhong Cuihua that he would go out later, and the tide would go out at nine o'clock tonight, so he could get something to eat.

Zhong Cuihua nodded, relying on the mountains to eat the mountains, relying on the sea to eat the sea, catching the sea is a common thing, and the dishes that people in the fishing village don’t eat are all picked from the sea. I am too old to do this. Zhao Dahai went around and made some food. Of course.

After Zhao Dahai washed the dishes, tidied up the kitchen, and returned to the main room, Zhong Cuihua had already prepared net bags, buckets and flashlights, and a pair of Jiefang shoes were placed on the ground.

"grandmother!"

"The tide is almost here!"

"I am leaving!"

Zhao Dahai said while changing his shoes.Zhong Cuihua is weaving a new fishing net. The people in the fishing village don’t talk about retirement.

"Hey!"

"it is good!"

"Be careful."

Zhong Cuihua nodded, took the net shuttle and ran it through her hair, and continued to weave the fishing net.

Zhao Dahai picked up the bucket, put it in the net bag, took the flashlight bucket, walked out of the yard, and strode towards the small pier in front of the village.

The moon hanging in the sky was so bright that no flashlight was needed.

Zhao Dahai looked around while walking, and saw a small pit with some water accumulated and a few small stones. He walked over quickly, and the sea was gone at low tide. The small fish, shrimps, and crabs who had no time to run chose to hide in such a pit. place to wait for the next high tide.

Zhao Dahai took advantage of the moonlight to see some paw prints scattered around the stone. He gently moved the stone away. The water was mixed and soon became clear. A stone crab was lying motionless. It is a kind of crab that is not big, usually the size of two or three fingers. The fisted one in front of me is already quite big, and it is an old crab.

Zhao Dahai pressed his index finger and middle finger together on the back of the crab, quickly pressed it into the sand, touched the hard bottom, and with his thumb down, pinched the crab belly, grabbed it, washed off the mud with the sea water in the puddle, and pulled the net Open the mouth of the bag and throw it in. This is the first harvest of the night.No one buys such things in the vegetable market in the fishing village, but if you grab some and eat it yourself, there is nothing wrong with it, and it tastes good.

Zhao Dahai continued to walk forward, looking for the same small pit with stones. In about two hours, he caught more than [-] stone crabs, large and small, and picked up half a catty of snails. It took a lot of effort to trap five or six small mullets the size of two fingers, and caught them all. Seeing that the tide was almost rising, he turned and walked to the shore.

Zhao Dahai walked to the shore, found a sandy place, dug a small pit, and after a while, it was filled with sea water, washed his muddy legs and liberation shoes, and looked at the reef area not far away. Shaking his head, he climbed up last night when he was just reborn, and almost jumped off.

Zhao Dahai landed on the shore, sat on the beach, took a rest, watched the sea water slowly rise, and slowly wrinkled his brows.

It’s not difficult to eat at the seaside. Just now, I took advantage of the low tide and went around. The miscellaneous seafood is enough for me and my grandma to eat. However, I can’t eat these every day, let alone have money to buy rice flour oil Salt, sauce and vinegar-these things caught can't be sold for money.

How can I make some money?

Weaving a fishing net?
Can make some money.However, I can't afford to stay home.

The small tide didn't recede far, and the sea water rose very fast. After a while, the waves hit the beach.

Zhao Dahai looked at the small pier of the village. In the darkness, lights were lit up, and voices could be heard faintly. These were fishing boats preparing to go fishing.

Living in a fishing village by the sea, if you are not picky, it is not difficult to get some food to fill your stomach, but it is not easy to make money.There is not much land, so I can only grow a la carte, and I have to buy rice.Only do odd jobs or go fishing.

Odd jobs?

In the past two years, I have been lazy and sneaky, and my reputation has been ruined. It is unlikely that anyone will be willing to invite me.

fishing?

At the age of ten, he started to go out to sea with his father. He has good fishing skills, but he needs a fishing boat to go to sea.

fishing boat?

buy one?
This is not a small amount.

Generations of people have worked hard to live frugally and tighten their belts to make it possible.

I am now a pauper.

Don't even think about it.

However, they have their own fishing boats.

Lao Tzu, Zhao Datie, is a well-known fisherman in more than a dozen villages around him. He has worked hard for more than ten years. He was the first in the village to build a tile-roofed house, and he was the first to buy a fishing boat. Don’t look at the wooden fishing boat of only seven or eight meters. But the most important asset of a fisherman in a fishing village, the tool to make money, is no worse than buying a Santana at this time.When fishing villages go out to sea, they are usually husband and wife boats.My old lady has been fishing with me since she got married. The husband sings and the wife follows, coming and going in the wind and rain.I have been on a fishing boat since I was five or six years old, and I have always wanted to grow up. Father and son fish together, and my mother can rest at home. Who knows that God does not follow people’s wishes. On my 16th birthday, my father and mother went to sea and never came back. .After half a year, the people in the village took advantage of the ebb tide and spent a lot of effort to drag it back.

The fishing boat sank in the sea for half a year after the accident, and two years of exposure to the wind and sun on the beach, many places must have been damaged, and it is definitely not possible to go out to sea now, but it can be repaired. Buying a boat costs a lot of money, and repairing the boat can save money. More money.With a fishing boat, you can go fishing and make money.

Zhao Dahai suddenly became excited.
