Chapter 75
Zhao Dahai stood on a rock, looked at the white sun, and squinted his eyes. The sea is different from other places. As soon as the sun comes out, the temperature rises very fast. The island is bare without trees or even soil, only stones, hot The speed was faster, the sunlight reflected on the sea surface was very dazzling and uncomfortable, and I looked down at some sea oysters and snails in the net bag in my hand. Most of the net bag weighed forty to fifty catties.

Zhao Dahai knew that he was different from people like Chen Fang who were familiar with the island and even had their own snail nests. There must be nothing to gain in places near the island or places that are easy to climb. From the beginning, relying on his youth and strength, he often Walking in places where few people are difficult to climb, Chen Fang is a woman no matter what, and her physical strength and courage are not as good as men. There are many places on the island that cannot be visited. Facts have proved that this is the right choice. It takes less than two hours. At that time, forty or fifty catties of large sea oyster snails cost around ten yuan per catty, and they were available for five to six hundred yuan.

Zhao Dahai tied up the mouth of the net bag, found a seawater pit to soak in it, and moved a few stones to hold it down. It was very heavy to carry dozens of catties, and it was very dangerous to climb the reef. Let it go first, and take it with you when you go back. .

Zhao Dahai rested for about ten minutes, so hurry up and continue. However, the key point is not to find a position a little above the waterline. The sun rises and the temperature becomes higher. In this position, all the snails disappear in the water, or they can't be seen. If you dare not touch it, if a wave hits you and you cannot stand firmly, you will have to fall into the sea.At this time, if you want to find the conch, you have to find a crack in the stone.The temperature of the island is rising very fast.However, places like the crevices of stones are usually very humid, and many of them are soaked in seawater.Those snails that climb up to the island at night or when the tide rises hide in it.

Zhao Dahai walked to a stone gap formed by two reefs, and looked in under the rising sun. As expected, there were three or four sea oyster snails and a few bitter snails inside.

Bitter snails and sea snails are both types of conch. Where you can find sea snails, you can usually find bitter snails. They are much smaller than sea snails and have a slightly bitter-sweet taste.Many people don't like this taste, and the price is much lower than that of sea oyster snails.

I will definitely not let it go when I see it.No matter how worthless it is, it costs a few dollars a catty.

Who can see the money and not pick it up?
The fire pliers were not needed at this time, so I took out a half-meter-long iron hook and stuck it into the cracks in the rocks. The oyster snails and bitter snails were hooked out, and I took a new net bag and packed them. I continued to move forward, and continued to search for the cracks in the rocks. Conch and bitter snails inside.

The clothes on Zhao Dahai's body were soaked, beads of sweat were dripping desperately, he raised his head and squinted his eyes to look at the sun in the sky, hanging in the middle, looking for the snail, before he knew it, it was already one o'clock at noon , I found a big reef, where the sun couldn’t shine on the back, sat down, took out the lunch box from the bucket I brought, and had breakfast at three or four in the morning. It has been almost eight hours now, and I have been climbing up and down on the reef. In the middle, I only drank a few sips of water and rested for about ten minutes. I was hungry and tired.

Zhao Dahai ate it with a big mouthful, stuffed the oily chunks of pork belly into his mouth, and swallowed it before he could chew it. The salted fish was very tasty, and he ate all the food brought in the lunch box in ten minutes. I burped, sat for two or three minutes, stood up and continued to move forward and continue to hook snails.Going to the island to hook snails is not a difficult task, and there are not many skills. Sea oyster snails or bitter snails are either at the waterline or in the crevices of rocks. If you want to get a good harvest, you must have good feet to climb the reef. You have to suffer, you have to be exposed to the sun.

Zhao Dahai stood in the middle of two big reefs, with a gap between the rocks, which was about as wide as a human's thigh. A gust of coldness rushed out of it, and his body, which was scalded by the sun, shivered involuntarily.

Zhao Dahai glanced at it. The cracks in the stone were pitch black and he couldn't see clearly. There are often good things in such places, and snails must be indispensable. Thinking that he had brought a flashlight, he immediately took a light inside.

what!

so many?
Zhao Dahai was dumbfounded.The cracks in the rocks are not deep, but only about two meters to three meters. People can't get in, but the space is quite good. The opening is [-] centimeters wide and there are two palms in the innermost part.The key point is that sea oyster snails and bitter snails are densely covered in the crevices of the stones.Layer upon layer, looking at the scalp numb.

It took Zhao Dahai a long time to come back to his senses, and he took a net bag again, stretched the hook in and pulled it out, one after another, oversized sea oyster snails and bitter snails rolled out. At this time, he wished he had a hoe.

Zhao Dahai hooked out half of the snails, put them into the net bag and continued hooking. The iron hooks in the deeper places were useless. Fortunately, he brought a four-meter-long steel hook, which happened to be useful at this time.

Zhao Dahai quickly understood why there were so many snails in the crevices of this rock, and there were several dead fish the size of a palm. It is no wonder that there are so many snails here. People die for money, and birds die for food. In the same way, oyster snails and bitter snails came here to eat fish, and now they are their own harvest.

Zhao Dahai picked up all the sea oyster snails and bitter snails and put them into the net bag, picked them up and weighed them, they were very heavy, estimated to weigh forty catties, he worked for six or seven hours in the morning, I don’t know How many reefs have been climbed, adding up to [-] catties. If luck comes, it will be unstoppable. A crack in the rocks will be full of harvest. The sea is so magical.

Zhao Dahai was so happy that he picked up the flashlight beside him and was about to turn it off, so he took a photo in the crevice of the stone, and there were some green, blue, green and blue things flashing inside.

No way?
Something else?

Zhao Dahai was stunned for a moment, took a closer look with the flashlight, and laughed. There was really something and it was a blue crab. It must have gone to the crevices of the rocks to eat fish like a sea oyster snail and a bitter snail.

Zhao Dahai stretched out a two-meter-long steel hook, hooked the blue crab and slowly dragged it out. The big pliers could not be broken, and it took a lot of effort to hook it out. He held it down, took the rope with him, and took a knot Let’s face it, a catty is less than a catty and a half, and now it’s more than a hundred yuan.

Zhao Dahai looked at the time and it was almost three o'clock. When he went to the island, the boat boss said that he would pick it up at four o'clock. Today's harvest is already very good. If you continue to search, you will definitely find more sea oyster snails and bitter snails, but you are not greedy. , packed up my things, and started to walk back. When I came here, I was empty-handed, which was very easy. When I went back, two bags of snails weighed more than [-] catties. Climbing up and down the slippery rocks was not an easy task. With the strength of the boss, he returned to the place on the island after exhausting himself.
