Chapter 366 A Broken Ground Cage
It didn't matter to Ye Yaodong. Although sometimes he was closer to his friends than to his brothers, brothers were still brothers after all.
As long as they are not afraid of risks, not everyone has a sense of adventure, and some people may prefer playing it safe.
Doing business in the sea is inherently risky, but it is a no choice, in order to make money. It’s not necessarily a matter of getting into the water, there are options.
He responded casually and continued working without taking it to heart.
He pulled up all the branches that had been put down, scooped out all the squid eggs on them, and harvested more than half of the heavy bucket.
There are gradually more squid on the sea, but compared with the crowded scene in the past few days, today's situation is considered sparse.
Moreover, after catching a net, it is not easy to regroup. You have to catch another net and change positions, which greatly reduces the fishing efficiency.
Ye Yaodong also felt that it was a pity. Fortunately, he caught a lot of abalone when he went into the water to subsidize it. Otherwise, he would not be able to make much from squid alone today.
He felt that it was quite a waste of time to work here and stop for a while.
He has become accustomed to earning more than others.
"Dad, I feel like there aren't many of them. We can't even catch a few in one net. Otherwise, let's go to the trawl bar. Anyway, the fishing nets on the boat are all ready-made."
"Okay, we can't gather together right now. Let's go out and drag the net and come back to take a look."
After the father and son reached an agreement, they dragged the fishing nets out of the cabin and arranged them while driving the boat out to sea.
They didn't go very far, so they chose to work in a nearby sea area. It just so happened that there were no ships trawling around here today.
I caught a net and the harvest was very ordinary, mostly paddy fish.
There are many kinds of fish in the sea. You don’t even know what kind of fish you have hauled up in the net until you catch it. You may catch pomfret today, small yellow croaker tomorrow, and large yellow croaker the day after tomorrow.
The bellies of these water grain fishes have roe in them, and their bellies are bulging even if they are medium in size. Now is the spawning season.
There are also a lot of small ones, but the small ones cannot be sold at a high price, so they can only be kept to dry the fish. The medium and above ones can barely sell for eight cents a pound.
The father and son had no time to pick it up now. After pouring all the goods into the basket, they saw that the sea was not far from the position where the longline was released, so they went to collect the hooks again. It was getting late anyway, and the trawl was ahead. It took 3 hours.
I just finished the longline fishing and went back, finally caught some squid, and then returned. The time was arranged properly. Both father and son are masters of time management.
Just as Ye Yaodong was retracting the hook, he saw a black thing floating along the current not far away. It was far away and it was not very clear.
He stretched out his hand and pointed in that direction, "Dad, look over there, what is that?"
Father Ye was picking the fish. When he heard his voice, he straightened up, made an empty fist with his right hand, and punched his lower back a few times.
As I get older, my waist becomes useless even after bending for a while.
Father Ye looked in the direction of his finger and walked towards him, "What is that thing? It's black? Who knows what it is. I'll take a look at it later. Your head is tightly wrapped." Seriously, you can see quite far?”
….
"I'm protecting myself from the sun. I'm not blind."
Ye Yaodong's hands were constantly busy, reeling in the fish and line, and his eyes looked into the distance from time to time, always paying attention.
Suddenly, he seemed to think of something, and his eyes lit up, "Hey~ This is floating on the sea. Do you think it is also ambergris?"
"Ah? Are you dreaming? This one is black. Where did you get so much ambergris? No one has picked it up in our village for a hundred years. If you can pick one up, it will already be smoking from the ancestral grave."
"Tch, it's hard to say. Everything is possible. Ambergris also comes in black. Maybe I'm lucky. What's more, just because no one picked it up in the village doesn't mean it's not there. There are many people who don't know the goods. Maybe the treasure is floating around. When it comes to you, you treat it like rubbish and ignore it.”
Hmm...that's true...
Father Ye really thought about it seriously. If it were him and things were thrown to the side of his boat, he would probably treat them as debris and ignore them.
"Then when it floats over, just pick it up and take a look."
Father Ye stopped bending down to work and kept paying attention to the floating object.
The floating object drifted with the wind and the current, ups and downs, and was hit by a wave from time to time. After sinking, it immediately floated up again, drifting closer and closer.
It wasn't until the thing floated not far from the ship that the father and son could clearly see the surface of the thing. It had sharp corners and was dark and not slick.
"Dancai?" Ye Yaodong felt that his eyesight was a little better.
"It seems so?" Father Ye also stretched his neck.
"Pick it up and take a look."
Father Ye took a long-handled hand net, which was just right.
As soon as they picked up the goods and received them, both father and son were a little disappointed.
Ye Yaodong took out a spherical object from the net. It was covered with a mess of shellfish and looked like it had clear water chestnuts on the surface.
"It's really a dish."
"I'll just tell you, there's so much ambergris, let's just dream."
"It doesn't matter if you think about it. How do you say that sentence? Make bold assumptions and verify carefully."
In the offshore, fishermen often throw floating balls into the sea for positioning, and this is the one he has in his hand.
Metal, hollow, and black, throw them into the sea with a rope and stones. After a long time, the rope breaks, and the floating ball rolls around in the sea, and there will be rainbows growing on it, which are densely packed.
Father Ye glanced at him sideways and said angrily: "You know the best. Keep collecting, and quickly collect the remaining two baskets of hooks."
Ye Yaodong shrugged his shoulders, threw the sharp-edged ball in his hand into a bamboo basket in the corner, and continued working.
You can dig it out and eat it anyway, don’t waste it.
This is purely natural, purely wild, pollution-free seafood.
He continued to pull up the rope he was holding, but found that this time, the rope was a little heavy and the weight was a little wrong.
"Big deal!" he said in surprise.
When I started pulling it, it was so heavy. "It's definitely a big deal!"
"Really or not? Don't be surprised."
Now he was talking about ambergris, and now he was talking about big products. Father Ye was a little skeptical.
"Why are you lying to me? If you don't believe me, come and try."
Father Ye glanced at him, it didn't look like he was trying to trick anyone, so he took the rope and pulled it, and found that it was really heavy. He instantly smiled and said, "Not bad."
….
This time, there was no need to rely on others, Father Ye just pulled him up.
"It's so heavy. The more I pull it, the heavier it gets. What are you looking at? Come and help me. You're so expressionless."
Ye Yaodong pursed his lips, not being as knowledgeable as his father.
"Good guy, it feels like I haven't gotten a big deal in a long time, why is it so heavy?"
Father Ye also happily agreed, "I don't know what kind of fish can be so heavy. It weighs dozens of kilograms."
“Just know it’s a big fish!”
"Push harder."
Ye Yaodong gritted his back molars, and the veins on his hands popped out, as did Ye's father.
The two fathers and sons leaned back and exerted force on their hands, and the goods in the water gradually came out of the water.
Looking at the fishing net-like thing looming under the water, both father and son were dumbfounded.
Ye Yaodong's hand relaxed a little. His eyes widened and his mouth opened, "Fuck, what kind of b-thing is this? Can you hook a fishing net?"
Father Ye quickly grabbed the fishing net that was sinking a little, "Don't let go, hold on first."
Surprised, but don't let go.
Ye Yaodong pulled the rope hard again, "You're just teasing me, you horse rider. Today it's a floating ball, and sometimes it's a broken cage net. It took me a long time to build this crap. I'm so happy for nothing. I thought it was something big." fish."
"Let the ground cage be on the ground. I don't know where the ground cage net was washed away. Let's pull it up first and take a look. Maybe it can be repaired and used when we take it back."
"It's broken everywhere..."
"Pull it up first. It looks like it can still be repaired. Once it's repaired, there will be an extra ground cage."
"It took another three years of sewing, right? No wonder it was so heavy when I first pulled it out. It was fate that I touched it. I don't know if there is anything in the fish bag underneath..." Ye Yaodong gurgled while pulling up with force.
[In view of the general environment,
The long cage net was pulled up to the deck little by little. The net was covered with all kinds of garbage and seaweed. It was so dirty that the original color could not be seen.
Moreover, there was a hole here and a hole there, which made Ye Yaodong disgusted to death.
"It's all broken like this, but I still need to repair it... I thought there might be something inside. There are holes and small holes everywhere, and they are probably all gone."
"There are crabs, small blue crabs."
There happened to be a small blue crab hanging on a small section of the fishing net that had just been pulled up. Father Ye said happily after seeing it.
“Finally, the work was not in vain.”
"Pull them all up first."
They chattered and slowly pulled up the fishing net. They were both happy when they saw two more big blue crabs stuck in the fishing net.
"That's right, one blue crab, two orchid crabs, this net is finally not white...ah~fuck~East Star Spot?"
"East Star Spot?"
"It's Dong Xingban, damn..."
Both father and son's eyes widened in surprise, and they saw a blue Eastern Star Spot in the fish bag they had just pulled up!
Its body is covered with fine white flower spots, shaped like stars in the sky. This one is still a genuine Eastern Star Spot, not the fake one that was used to pull the machine.
The Eastern Star Spot is not necessarily red, but the red Eastern Star Spot is definitely the most valuable because red is full of festive feeling.
The one in the fish collection bag is blue, because the blue Eastern Star Spot has jet-black eyes.
Although it's not red, it's still pleasing to the eye.
Ye Yaodong excitedly untied the rope at the other end of the fish bag. The blue Eastern star spots inside were still alive, and they were still jumping there when he poured them into the basket.
There are also a few scattered fish, a few shrimps, and stone crabs, some alive and some dead.
There wasn't much, but both father and son were so happy that they couldn't open their mouths from ear to ear.
That's Dong Xingban, one piece is worth everything, this broken cage net is so worth it.
"Make money, make money."
"Look, you were disgusted just now..." Father Ye's old face turned into a chrysanthemum with a smile.
"Looking at how broken this floor cage is, I thought there wasn't much in it. If there was any, it would have been gone. But I didn't expect it was still in stock. I don't know who it belongs to."
"It doesn't matter whose family it belongs to, whoever catches it belongs to the same person. Go and deflate it. If it's still alive when you just pull it up, deflate it and raise it."
The living is worth more than the dead!
"immediately."
Ye Yaodong grabbed the fish's head, but Dong Xingban struggled too hard, and the fish's body kept shaking, so he simply hugged it in his arms.
