MTL - Back To the Small Fishing Village In 1982-Chapter 498 The first pot of gold for jellyfish

  Even Father Pei looked at the surface of the water in disbelief, "No wonder there are so many jellyfish around. It turns out that it's because of the underwater terrain."

   "It should be. If there are so many every year, it must be due to the terrain. I don't know how long this trench has existed. I heard that it is due to an earthquake, or why it was formed."

   "Anyway, let's take care of him, let's hurry up and get ours, and we'll come to collect the goods at nine o'clock later, hurry up and get them, we've already got dozens of them."

   "Hey, okay..."

  Ye Yaodong added: "The catch will be about the same later, let's haul one net back to save a little time, and deal with it directly on the shore in the afternoon."

   "This is good..."

  Under the radiance of the scorching sun, golden rays of light appeared on the sea surface, and the blue waves were dyed golden, as if inlaid with a layer of bright gold, sparkling, rising and falling from time to time.

  Pieces of jellyfish, with the surge of the sea, are also ups and downs there. Everyone is sweating and busy, chatting with each other is not boring.

   "There seem to be several sea turtles under here, and I saw several of them biting jellyfish just now."

   "I saw it too, that biting, pulling, and sucking is quicker than eating noodles..." Ye Yaopeng couldn't help complaining.

   "It's a pity, such a big jellyfish got into their mouths, it's all money, I don't know how many catties they eat in a day, it would be nice to give it to us..."

Father Ye couldn't help but said: "Have you finished fishing? Sea turtles eat jellyfish, why don't you feed them? Unless you fished out all the sea turtles underneath, just now another group of sea turtles fell into the jellyfish colony. "

   "Huh? A group? No wonder I said why I still see turtles from time to time."

   "Then it must have gone into their stomachs?"

   "How much you have to eat, what a pity, don't rush all of them..."

Father Ye couldn't help but patted his thigh and regretted, "Oh, it's a pity, if I knew I had fished the turtles just now, it's been here day and night, so the jellyfish on the sea surface couldn't be cheaper? We probably paid them back. It doesn’t eat as much as it does.”

"Okay, okay, hurry up! Where can I eat day and night? The sea around here is full of patches, take advantage of it floating up in the early morning, hurry up and fish a little more, and when the sun is high at noon, most of it will be eaten." They all have to sink into the water."

   "Hurry up, hurry up..."

  Father Pei couldn't help feeling sorry, "I knew I would call two more workers, thinking that calling three would be enough."

   "Who would have thought? It's not easy to call it. It's far away, but it's not close, and it doesn't take long." Father Ye echoed.

  …

  Three boats were scattered around, and everyone was sweating profusely. It was almost eight o'clock when we lost our strength, and Ye Yaodong called everyone to take a break.

   "Don't fish, it's almost 8 o'clock, let's take a break and let's put the net down, and drag it back."

   "I'm going back now? I wish I had eight hands."

"Two hands are going to be exhausted, you still have life with eight hands?" Ye Yaodong said with a smile, "Okay, you have to do it properly, or you will overdo it and your body won't be able to bear it. Pull it back later, unload it. After it's sold out, I'll come out again."

  The three of them quickly agreed, and after pulling up what they were on hand, they sat aside, and one of them drank three big ladles of tea vigorously, panting there.

   "This sea is like an upside-down sky, and it's so beautiful."

   "The main reason is that the sea water is clear and blue, so it looks good."

  Father Ye also had his hands on his hips, standing on the edge panting, seeing the two boats next door still fishing there, and yelling at them, "Okay, it's time, we have to get ready to cast the net, and dragged a net back."

  Ye Yaopeng wiped off his sweat, and regretfully said: "It's late, if I knew it earlier, I would have followed closely."

  Ye Yaohua couldn't help complaining, "You have too many 'knowledge'...you knew everything..."

  Ye Yaopeng turned his head and glared at him, "Who would have expected this?"

   "Okay, okay, let's go to work after a while, what are you arguing about?"

  Father Ye spoke, and the two brothers just exchanged a few words and then stopped.

  Everyone wanted to take advantage of the return trip to set up a wave of fishing nets, and didn't care about rest, so they hurriedly took out the fishing nets and sorted them out.

  The people on Ye Yaodong’s boat had already arranged the fishing nets first, and now they just set off the boat to release the nets, so they took the first step.

  As the boat moved slowly, the fishing nets were lowered into the sea bit by bit, and the others quickly picked up the knives to deal with the jellyfish just caught.

  They all have big hearts. There are so many jellyfish floating on the sea, big and small, and they all fish for the big ones.

  The fish caught here weighed no more than 50 kilograms each, and the umbrellas on them were as big as a small round table.

Ye Yaodong grabbed one and flipped the umbrella end, they were still alive, "Be careful when you catch, don't get stung, although you are all wearing gloves, but you are all shirtless, don't get stung on your arms, yesterday the Lu family The children are all going to hang water."

   "It has been dealt with many times, we will be careful."

  Father Ye was sailing the boat there. He first let the fishing boat circle around the edge of the island, and felt that the speed of the boat had slowed down, so he increased the speed a little, and then drove towards the village at a constant speed.

  The two boats behind have not started to cast their nets yet, but it’s okay, they will land first, and the harvesters can collect theirs first when they come.

  When they drove to the coast, many fishing boats also rowed towards the shore one after another, and all of them returned with full loads. The fishermen's faces showed joyful smiles of a good harvest.

  I heard that after the production team was disbanded, everyone in their village earned a good income during the jellyfish fishing season last year.

  Ye Yaodong and the others also seized the time to split up, it would be best if they could take them away in one go.

  Just waiting for their fishing boat to dock on the sea, the shore suddenly became chaotic, and the people on the surrounding boats also hurriedly disembarked and waded towards the shore.

  The small boats and bamboo rafts that were unloading on the coast, the young and middle-aged people on top also rushed forward aggressively holding the bamboo poles for punting.

  Father Ye hurriedly shouted after finding out: "Do you think there is an accident on the shore?"

  The four of them were lowering their heads in a hurry to divide up. After hearing this, they all stood up and looked into the distance.

   "What's wrong?"

   "Oops, is this another fight?"

   "There are quite a few people here..."

   "Did someone from the next village come over to find a place? I was caught off guard yesterday, and I couldn't be reconciled, so I called someone over today?"

"may be."

   "Tsk tsk tsk~ Isn't it good to make money safely? What a waste of time this fight is!"

"People fight for breath, Buddhas fight for a stick of incense, the conflict between the two villages, how can it be settled, how can this fight be postponed, when the anger rises, roll up your sleeves and do it. Baobuqi passed overnight , the anger rose even more."

  Father Ye listened to their discussion and said, "Let's split up at the beach later, and the jellyfish blood will be brought ashore later when they finish hunting."

   "Well, when Chen Jianian comes over, let him call people to the beach to collect them. Don't look, there is still a net of jellyfish behind, and they will be slowly dragged to the beach one by one."

   "Work work work..."

   Say don’t watch it, but everyone’s attention is also cast on the shore from time to time.

It's a little far away, but you can see the beach. The temporary sheds built by the women have been dismantled, and a long wooden plank was specially placed on it to divide the jellyfish. They were also lifted, and the jellyfish beside them were scattered everywhere. .

  The young and middle-aged men were pushing and pulling, and the women stood aside in fear.

  There were boats docking on the beach non-stop, and more and more people joined in one after another. Even when Chen Jianian came over at a good time, he was caught in a catastrophe.

   He ran halfway before he put on the shoe that had fallen off, and patted the footprints on his buttocks behind him.

   "My God, I just passed by and got kicked several times. Fortunately, I ran fast, otherwise I would have been left behind. These people are really impulsive. They didn't even finish fighting yesterday, and they continued today."

  He took out his pocket again, "Fortunately, the money was not lost. I was afraid of losing it. I put it in my trouser pocket and held it tightly with one hand."

  Ye Yaodong's eyes lit up when he saw him take out a handful of Da Tuan.

  Father Ye was also excited, "You got the money?"

Chen Jianian also smiled and said: "Yes, I couldn't wait for the morning, so I went to settle the accounts when I had nothing to do, and was scolded by my friend, asking me to go there to settle the accounts in the afternoon, not in the morning, or I won't be given it. "

  Ye Yaodong also said happily: "It's like this. Businessmen hate people coming to ask for money in the morning, and they will go in the afternoon next time."

   "Haha, am I afraid that you won't be able to wait? The first sum of money must be in your pocket early. Don't worry, what if you think I've run away?"

   "No, no, this trust is still there."

   "Come, come, here is the money. You can count and see if the quantity is correct. The manifest is also here."

  He put the money into Ye Yaodong's hand, took out a few more slips, found one and put it on the top to show them.

   "This is the 520 yuan plus 77 yuan 4 cents sold on the first day. I smoked 5 points and left 567 yuan 50 cents and 6 cents."

  Just now Ye Yaopeng, Ye Yaohua and Pei's father's boats also docked one after another. Seeing Chen Jianian handing out a lot of money to Ye Yaodong, they all surrounded him excitedly.

   "Dongzi, did you take money?"

   "The money for selling the goods on the first day? So much, can I get it so soon?"

Chen Jianian smiled and said: "I'm an acquaintance, and I was afraid that you were in a hurry, so I went to get it the next day. I was scolded early in the morning, but it's okay, as long as I can get the money. You do the math, see Is the quantity correct? If not, let’s count again.”

  Ye Yaodong glanced at the invoice, pretending not to care, and said: "Is there anything wrong, it must be right, you must be better than me in calculating, and maybe I miscalculated? Thank you, you have worked hard to run back and forth."

   "What's the hard work? I'm also making money. Without you, I wouldn't be able to make this money. You should count first and see if the number is right. Brothers will settle the accounts clearly. We must settle the accounts clearly."

"OK."
