Chapter 30: Going to the Underground Cage
"Stop talking nonsense." Li Changle put the money into his hand, "You are stronger than me, and you can earn more than me. I will give you half of it, and I will take advantage of you."
Ah Wei blushed and said, "Brother, that's not how it works. If you hadn't said that you put the fish in net bags and put them in the pond, those fish would have died long ago. How could the dead fish be sold for so much money? If you want to give it, give it. I have fifteen dollars, and I don’t want a cent more.”
Grandma said that he only had a lot of energy and didn’t use his brain to do things. Although Ah Le is a little lazy, he has a good brain and a good heart. As long as he really changes his mind and works with him, one of the two brothers will use his brain and the other will use his brain. Strength is the best.
Seeing this, Li Changle could only withdraw two and a half yuan, "Okay, I'll divide the money as you say, but you have to carry a bag of those fish back, otherwise we won't do it together in the future."
"Oh!" Chen Yongwei took the money, "I'll carry the fish back. You wait for me in the alley."
"Okay!" Li Changle took out the money from his pocket and handed it to Zhou Ruonan, then picked up the floor cage and put it in his backpack, "Nan, I'll go get the floor cage down and then come back."
"Be careful!" Zhou Ruonan warned warmly.
"Don't worry!" Li Changle smiled at her, picked up the backpack and left.
Zhou Ruonan watched him walk into the alley before immersing himself in work.
Sister-in-law Li kicked Zhou Ruonan and said with a smile: "Nan, Ah Le seems to have had his head replaced by Judge Lu, he has suddenly become a different person."
.......
"Today, I feel like I'm in a dream. I feel like I'm back to the time when I was looking for a partner with him. Ah Le was the same way at that time." Zhou Ruonan sighed quietly, "I'm afraid that when I wake up from the dream, he will change again. It’s the same as before.”
After thinking about it, Sister-in-law Li stretched out her hand and pinched the back of her hand, then asked with a smile, "Does it hurt?"
Zhou Ruonan retracted his hand and glared at her angrily, "It hurts, why doesn't it hurt?"
"Pain is not a dream." Sister-in-law Li said with a smile, "Ah Le is lazy, but his brain is more flexible than Ah Ping, Ah An and Ah Huan. Now that you can calm down and do things down-to-earth, you will have a better future." Rely on it."
"Yes!" Zhou Ruonan nodded. In recent years, his parents-in-law had secretly subsidized a lot of money for the third bedroom. The two sisters-in-law also secretly complained that their parents-in-law were partial.
Even if Ah Le doesn't go fishing, as long as he doesn't go out to fool around, his salary of about ten yuan a month, plus the money earned from doing handicrafts, can support the family without the parents-in-law subsidizing them, and it also saves the elder sister-in-law and the second sister-in-law. Comfortable.
Li Changle and Chen Yongwei walked to the Changtang and found that there were still people searching for fish by the pond. They did not expect that the water chestnuts in the Changtang had been picked up everywhere by the fishermen with bamboo poles, and the Changtang was no longer covered tightly. Breathable, there is no lack of oxygen in the pond, how can the fish surface again to breathe?
The two walked along the bank of the pond and walked through the saline-alkali land to the end of the Chang Pond. A sluice separated the Chang Pond from the sea. There was still water flowing out under the gate, and when the tide rose, the water would flow into the Chang Pond.
After passing the sluice, there is a ditch about 10 to 20 meters wide. There is a forest on both sides of the ditch. The ditch gradually widens until it connects to the sea.
There are many places in this water area where the water is very shallow, and they plan to place crab pots and ground pots in shallow water areas.
Chen Yongwei put down his backpack, took out the floor cage and crab cage and placed them on the ground. Li Changle stepped forward and opened the floor cage net. The floor cage was made of No. 8 wire as the skeleton and was surrounded by three-finger-wide mesh to form a square shape, about 2
Meter long foldable cage net.
There are spaced fish luring holes on both sides of the cage net. The fish luring hole is a trumpet-shaped inverted net mouth (fish and shrimp can only enter but not exit). Both ends of the ground cage net are conical fish collecting net bags.
When fish and shrimp enter the ground cage net from the fish luring hole, they are misled and crawl into the fish collecting bags at both ends and are caught.
The nets are all woven into a three-finger mesh with a mesh size of about four centimeters. As long as fish with a diameter of less than four centimeters enter, they can escape directly from the mesh. This kind of fishing net only catches fish with a diameter of more than four centimeters.
Leave the fish and shrimp alone.
In addition to the three-finger mesh ones, there are also one-finger, two-finger, three-finger, and four-finger ones with a distance of about one centimeter.
Small fish and shrimps cannot escape after entering the net. The most important thing is that most of these small fish and shrimps will be thrown away directly after the net is set up, which will cause great damage to the regeneration of fish and shrimps. This kind of net is called a big or small net.
Take it all, catch everything in one go.
Chen Yongwei took out the bait. He didn't mind the smell at all, and put it into the bait bag in the crab pot net and into the ground cage net. "Brother, you follow me with the bamboo pole. I'll lower the cage, and you put the ground cage net."
The cage is fixed."
Li Changle picked up the cage and said, "I'll go with you."
Chen Yongwei smiled and said, "Don't you mind the smell?"
"If you're afraid of being smelly, you won't be able to make money!"
Li Changle picked up the ground cage and walked into the water. While getting off the ground cage, he used a bamboo pole to touch the bottom of the ground cage to prevent tree trunks or stones from scratching the ground cage.
After the ground cage was lowered, I went to the shore to find a small tree and tied the rope to it to prevent the ground cage from being washed away by the water.
After he put several cages in place, he squatted there to clean the mud from his legs. However, after a while, he was bitten by mosquitoes, and the bitten areas suddenly became itchy.
"Damn it! It's so poisonous!" Li Changle took out the cooling oil, unscrewed it, took a little and applied it to the bitten area. It had a hot and cool feeling, and the bitten area felt much more comfortable.
As soon as he wiped his arms, he received a few more blows on his butt and legs. He thought that if he tied the person to a tree and spent the night, all the blood on his body would be absorbed by the mosquitoes.
After looking around, I broke off a stick and waved it back and forth to drive away mosquitoes, and I felt better.
Over there, Chen Yongwei carried the crab pot until he was close to the trench. He looked there for a long time, put the crab pot net in place, and then walked out through the mud.
When I got to the shore, I saw Li Changle standing there, walking around. He said with a smile, "Brother, I didn't lie to you, did I? The mosquitoes here are so powerful!"
"It's so much that I can hear the buzzing in my ears just standing here." Li Changle felt that the area where he had applied the cooling oil was still itchy, "It's like riding a horse, even the cooling oil is useless!"
"It's much better after using cooling oil. I was bitten all over the body last time." Chen Yongwei went ashore and cleaned the mud while saying, "I found a few crab holes and lowered the crab pots to the entrance. There should be some when I come tomorrow morning. .”
"Yeah!" Li Changle saw that he had finished washing, picked up his backpack and walked towards the gate, "Hurry up, don't waste a second!"
"Okay!" Chen Yongwei thought that he would sleep until the sun was shining three hours a day before getting up, so he put on his plastic sandals and chased after him.
"Brother, you can sleep a little longer tomorrow morning, and I'll collect the crab pots and ground cages. If it's still early to go back, I'll take you to the island to pry Buddha's hand snails."
Li Changle looked at Ah Wei who was looking at him eagerly, hesitated and said, "I will come with you when I wake up tomorrow morning. If not, you will go first!"
He originally planned to go back to the cave at four o'clock tomorrow morning and then collect the cage.
Now I heard that Awei was going to take him to the small island with the big Buddha's hand to dig for Buddha's Hands. Thinking that I had hidden the cave from him, my face suddenly felt a little hot. I wanted to take him with me, but I was worried about what happened just now. The same thing happened, which alarmed all the people in the village.
