Rebirth of a fishing village: starting from Hua Axiang in Jiehu Village

"Early this morning, Zhao Dahai went fishing for Shi Jiugong. I met him at the pier. At that time, I was thinking, how can I make money fishing for this thing?!"

"Who would have thought of catching a four-pound red-spotted fish? You can get it for thousands of dollars right away."

"Hey!"

"I figured it out."

"Those gobies or red spots are destined to belong to Zhao Dahai. We people don't have this fate."

As Zhong Shizhu talked, he got on his fishing boat. He took out several large net bags from the small cabin, washed them with sea water, carefully rolled them up, and tied them with small ropes.

"you're right!"

"Only this kid Zhao Dahai has such luck."

"I heard that I bought a motorcycle?!"

Liu Bin sighed inwardly, a four-pound erythema is a rare thing, and he has been fishing for more than twenty years, and the biggest one is only one-eight taels a catty, so he really has to be lucky to meet it, maybe Zhong Shizhu is right, this The fish is destined to belong to Zhao Dahai, others just can't catch it or catch it.

"yes!"

"Bought a motorcycle!"

"Second-hand!"

Zhong Shizhu nodded. Zhao Dahai did buy a motorcycle and drove Zhong Cuihua around the village. He met her when he came down to the dock just now.

"The day is getting better!"

"Zhao Dahai's kid is incredible!"

Liu Bin sighed a little. Zhao Dahai's father and mother had an accident when they went fishing two years ago. The people in the village, including myself, feel that the old and the young will not be able to survive sooner or later-one is so old that the loess is buried up to the neck and the other is a bastard. At home, he waited abruptly until Zhao Dahai turned around.

Zhong Shizhu packed up the mesh bag, took out a cigarette from his pocket, lit one, and took a few puffs. Used motorcycle? Even the new me and Liu Bin and even many people in the village can afford it. This matter is not about buying a second-hand or brand-new motorcycle. As Liu Bin said, Zhao Dahai has been living his life like this, and the more he sees, the better he is. No, he doesn’t have the money to buy vegetables and rice. Where can he buy it? motorcycle?

When Liu Bin saw Zhong Shizhu about to leave, he glanced at the mesh bags in Zhong Shizhu's hand. There were at least a dozen neatly tied up. This was not right.

"Great low tide."

"You didn't forget, did you?!"

Zhong Shizhu said something and turned around to leave. The sun disappeared immediately and the sky became dark. He had to make some preparations when he went back, so he couldn't waste any time.

Liu Bin patted his thigh vigorously. The sea ebbs and flows all the time. But the ebb and flow of the tide is not the same every time. There are generally different types of tides, but the sea area near Langtou Village and surrounding villages is a bit special. Once or twice a year, the tide recedes very far, and the seabed that is usually not exposed is exposed. These seawaters have been submerged for half a year or even longer. There are not many fish, shrimps and crabs, but all kinds of mussels and oysters are really good. There are many. The low tide every year is a bad thing. Not to mention the seaside villages, there are many people in towns and even counties who come to catch the sea.

"How can you forget something like this?!"

Liu Bin hurriedly searched for his fishing boat, found all the net bags that he could find, cleaned them, and went home to prepare immediately. The low tide is a good opportunity to make money. If the family is diligent, they can get 200 catties of mussels casually. , how can you miss such an opportunity? Sell it to the buyer for three to five yuan a pound, and get five to six hundred or even a thousand yuan.

Night falls.

After dinner, Zhao Dahai took Zhong Cuihua out for a walk, walked a hundred steps after dinner, and lived to ninety-nine. Zhong Cuihua wove fishing nets all day long, and sitting for too long was bad for his legs and feet, so he had to walk more.

How is this going?

What are these people doing?

Zhao Dahai walked slowly with Zhong Cuihua. At the beginning, I didn’t pay much attention to it, but soon I found that every house was lit. This is not right. Like other villages, the fishing village works at sunrise and rests at sunset. They usually go to bed early and get up early. One is tired from work and goes to bed early. , the other is to save money, the electricity bill is not cheap. Even if a few households have lights on, almost every house in the whole village has lights on, not just the lights in the rooms, but also the high-wattage lights in the yard.

"Hehehe!"

"Tomorrow is the Great Ebb."

"These people are getting ready."

Zhong Cuihua glanced at the open courtyard door of a house where several people were sorting mesh bags, and immediately thought of what was going on.

"Why!"

"I forgot about it!"

"grandmother!"

"This is a good opportunity, we can't let it go."

"I'll go out early tomorrow morning. Walk around in the sea a few times and get something."

Zhao Dahai suddenly realized.

"OK!"

"Go ahead."

"Just get some and eat it back. It doesn't take much effort."

Zhong Cuihua immediately reminded Zhao Dahai that there are mussels, oysters or other shellfish on the bottom of the sea when the tide is low. These things have a characteristic of being heavy. It’s not much, so don’t get tired and get hurt.

"OK!"

"grandmother!"

"do not worry!"

"I'll pay attention!"

Zhao Dahai nodded in agreement. You really have to be careful when going out to sea. Don't think that there will be no danger if the water recedes at high tide. This is not the case at all.

Zhao Dahai walked with Zhang Cuihua for almost an hour before returning home.

Zhao Dahai began to prepare things for tomorrow. I have prepared ten mesh bags, large and small, all of which have meshes as big as the head of chopsticks. Those with meshes that are too large are of no use. Smaller shells will definitely fall off. During the ebb tide, mussels, oysters or other shells are mainly caught. These things are dug out with mud and water. Buckets and other impermeable bags are not used at all. Mesh bags are the best to use because there is no water. Just wash it in a full puddle and wash away all the mussels and other mud. You must bring a small hoe and a small rake.

"ah?"

"The sea!"

"You have prepared so many things? Can you carry them all?"

"Let's get some and eat it! There's no need to think about selling it for money!"

Zhong Cuihua was sitting in the main room weaving fishing nets. She looked up at Zhao Dahai from time to time. When she saw that there were many things prepared, she immediately called out.

"grandmother."

"Can't take it with me?"

"Didn't you just buy a motorcycle?"

Zhao Dahai smiled and pointed to the motorcycle parked in the corner of the yard. He found a big wooden stick with the thickness of a bowl in the firewood pile in the kitchen, sawed it more than one meter long, put it on the back seat, found a rope, and tied it firmly It's tight, there's a big bamboo basket on each side, and the mesh bags are stuffed inside, there's nothing wrong with it. It’s really better to buy this motorcycle sooner rather than later and use it immediately.

After Zhao Dahai packed his things, he immediately went into the kitchen to start a fire and cook. He will be busy all day tomorrow, so he cooks it first. It is convenient for grandma to eat, and more importantly, it saves time. The salted pork belly was cut into large pieces and cooked, and the salted fish was fried. Everything was ready. Seeing that it was almost twelve o'clock, I went to bed immediately.
