Return to the small fishing village of 1982

Ye Yaodong carried the bucket and walked down to the shallow water area. When he got closer, he shouted to them, "Have you gained anything?"

"Is picking up a cat's eye snail considered a gain?" A Guang looked depressed.

"Better than nothing." He walked towards Aguang and handed the bucket back to him.

“I’m embarrassed to carry such a big bucket when it’s so empty.”

"Hahaha~" He also felt a little funny, "It's okay, just go back and change your name!"

"Hey~ Let's talk about it. It's a waste to burn firewood for one snail. I'll make up the number for you!" He threw it into Ye Yaodong's bucket with a ding-dong sound.

"Look for it again. The tide has just ebbed and the tide has not risen so quickly. You may still find something."

"It doesn't matter. You go on. I'll go to the reef wall to see if I can pick up anything." Aguang shrugged and walked directly towards the edge of the reef wall.

"I just visited the reef wall here yesterday. I picked up the slightly larger sea melon seeds and snails, and I also opened all the oysters that can be opened. There will definitely be nothing there if you go there now."

"It doesn't matter, I'll just walk around. If there's nothing else, I'll go back to eat first."

"Okay, then you can see for yourself. It's such a bright sun. If you don't get any results, you might as well go back and rest early."

"Um."

Ye Yaodong looked around and saw that his friends must have been searching for them, so he simply walked towards the rocks near the shore.

Unexpectedly, just after taking a few steps, I felt something hard stepped on my foot. I squatted down and took a look, and a cat's eye snail peeked out from under the sand.

He picked it up, scraping it while pinching the soft flesh on the head of the cat's eye snail that had been filled with seawater and had no time to retract.

Zhi~ Several streams of water flew out~

He chuckled lightly and rushed to A Guang, who was walking in front: "A Guang, look, I picked up a cat's eye snail behind you when I walked away. It's quite a big one."

"Fuck!" A Guang turned around and cursed, "I just walked over."

Ye Yaodong threw it into the bucket and said with a smile: "It must be that I have been lucky these past two days!"

"I shouldn't have gone out today. It's so comfortable to stay at home and sleep. I was so full that I ran out to bask in the sun." As he said this, he walked towards the rocks.

Under the scorching sun, Ye Yaodong continued his treasure hunt on the beach, but he didn't find anything big. Going to sea really depends on luck.

Forty years later, even if there is a strong tide, there will not be that much to pick up on the beach. There may only be some jumping fish, stone crabs, and giant clams.

I don’t know the reason. It may be due to overfishing in the ocean or pollution. There are fewer seafood. Only some uninhabited islands can pick up more seafood.

Watching the tide coming up little by little, everyone wanted to go back. It was already past one o'clock and they were all starving to death.

"Go back. There should be nothing left to pick up. The tide is coming." Xiaoxiao shook the bucket and shouted to everyone.

"Okay, okay, let's go back, it's so hot."

"I didn't even pick up a few things, but Dongzi picked them all up."

Ye Yaodong glanced at his half-full bucket and felt quite satisfied. "I didn't pick up anything at the back, just stone crabs and jumping fish. I should have a bowl of these two things."

"That tiger stripe is enough for you. It's already worth your money. Today's trip is not in vain."

"And there's that nest of snow clams! If you make enough, you can make two or three bowls of scattered seafood."

He smiled and said that his harvest today was indeed good. If there is a big tide tomorrow, he can continue to come and see if his luck is really good.

"Let's go back. I'm very hungry." He casually kicked the big stone at his feet and planned to go back.

Who knew that at the moment he was about to turn around, a tentacle came out from the stone

"Ah? Did you find the octopus again?" Azheng, who was not far away from him, ran over in a hurry.

"It hid really well. If I hadn't kicked it with my foot, it probably wouldn't have even extended its tentacles."

"Catch it out and have a look to see if it has a red seal, a black seal or a white seal. It looks like the tentacles are quite small, so it shouldn't be too big."

There are three kinds of octopus that are common in their waters. Bai Zhang is also called Wangchao. It is small but the most expensive and has the best taste. The red seal is the second best, and the black seal is the cheapest, and the meat quality is not that good. In many cases, you can’t even bite it.

He stretched out his hand along the tentacles, took it out, and grabbed it hard, "It's wrapped so tightly. It's a black seal, garbage."

"That's fine, it's better than none of us having any."

"Dongzi, you are a little lucky today! Before you leave, you can still find a black seal."

"Looking at your bucket, today's harvest is not small."

Ye Yaodong looked at the octopus tightly wrapped around his wrist. He couldn't throw it into the bucket even if he wanted to. He could only use his other hand to tear it off and throw it in, but when he threw it in, its tentacles were wrapped around him again. Climb out of the barrel.

"Damn, I can really climb, but I can only hold it in my hands. Can you help me move that stone and see if there is anything underneath?"

"You thought there was another nest?" Having said that, everyone still worked together to help turn the stone over.

"Holy shit, it really does exist," he was pleasantly surprised, "It's a pity it's a little small."

"It's a black badge again, it's not bad, it's always good to gain something!"

Xiaoxiao squatted aside to help catch it and put it in Ye Yaodong's hand, "Okay, you can go back. You really came home with a full load today."

He grinned. He could indeed have extra food in the evening. His work was not in vain today. He had enough to eat and money to make.

"You guys think it's okay. Although it doesn't have a large size, the small ones can make one or two bowls together."

Ah Zheng shook the bucket in his hand, "It's not bad, it's better than the best, but it's better than the worst. Hey, where's A Guang?"

I originally wanted to make fun of A Guang, but I didn't expect to see anyone.

After his reminder, everyone realized that A Guang seemed to be missing.

"Ah Guang walked around the reef for a while, but didn't get much. If he felt unhappy, he went back first." It's not that he didn't get much. He visited it all yesterday, so it would be strange to get something.

"It's free to bask in the sun." Ah Wei gloated a little.

"It's okay, let's put our things together and go to his house to drink at night." Ye Yaodong suggested.

Between friends, it is normal for you to eat mine and I to eat yours. Yesterday, he had a meal in vain.

"Okay, it will be great if we all come together, and we can have a decent table."

"Call the fat man. If the mouse is not at home, forget it."

"The fat guy won't come to bask in the sun, but he will definitely come to drink!"

"It's just right for him to bring two kilograms of home-brewed rice wine."

"You can have this."

Everyone had already arranged the dinner and drinks for the evening with just a few words.
