Chapter 28 Catching Tiger Spots
"Oh, this fish is so slippery!"
Ye Yaodong just poked it out and tried to catch it, but it ran away and crawled back again.
The stone was too big to move, so he could only continue to put the tongs in and stir it until it came out again.
A Guang squatted down, held his bucket, and pointed it at the crack under the stone. "My bucket is empty anyway. I'll let you catch this fish first."
Ye Yaodong looked at his empty bucket and couldn't laugh or cry. Everyone had gained something, but his bucket was still empty, with nothing.
"Okay, pretend it for me first!"
Ah Zheng's eyes narrowed with a smile, "A Guang must be very depressed in his heart, but he still has to force a smile. How pitiful! What a good brother!"
"Alas~"
"Hahaha~"
Listening to them continue to tease A Guang, Ye Yaodong raised the corner of his mouth and stirred under the stone with a pair of fire pliers for a long time, only to find that the tiger stripe didn't run out for a long time. "Go to the other side and see if it has run to the other side?"
"Here! Here! You swam here and came out. Give me the bucket!"
"It's pretty big."
"It looks like it should be a pound or two."
"Dongzi is really lucky!"
Xiaoxiao took the bucket handed over by Aguang, scooped it up at the tiger spot, and scooped it directly into the bucket, "It's done, I caught it!"
Several heads were stretched over, looking at the lively fish in the bucket with envy on their faces.
Buy it, it’s not that everyone can’t afford it. Catch the sea, it’s about the fun and satisfaction of catching seafood by yourself, and this is not an ordinary fish, it’s a tiger stripe. Everyone can’t help but complain about Ye Yaodong, let’s go
Damn luck.
"There is too little seawater in this bucket. If you add a little more, you won't die."
Ah Wei said: "I'll just put two jumping fish into your bucket and use them to scoop out the water."
Xiaoxiao said with a smile: "Then I earned two fish!"
After half the bucket of water was filled, Xiaoxiao handed the bucket to Ye Yaodong, "Are you going to keep it for yourself or sell it?"
"Sell it! You must sell it. Don't eat it and my mother will scold you so much that your legs will be broken. Yesterday I caught two small blue crabs and planned to keep them to eat, but she got scolded and said
Feeding it to the child makes her look better, but she still sells it."
This tiger stripe is much more valuable than the two small green crabs yesterday. If you use it to stew it, not to mention his mother scolding him, his wife will also be angry with him for a few days.
It would be a good idea to sell it to her for a few dollars, so that she would not be able to earn even one dollar from weaving the net all day long.
Although he didn't know how much money his wife had saved, he knew it wasn't much.
"You have to sell it. The people of the previous generation were reluctant to eat or wear it. A pound of it costs more than one yuan. For such a big one, it can be sold for three yuan. It is worth the 3-4 days of netting they made."
It would be too wasteful to just throw it away like this.”
"Yes, you can just eat the worthless seafood, but let's sell this one!"
"While you're still alive, you go to the dock purchasing point first. It just gives us the opportunity to look for any big goods? Otherwise, all the goods will go into your bucket, and I will have to return with an empty bucket!"
Everyone said this, and Ye Yaodong nodded, "Okay, then you guys play here first, and I'll be back in a while."
Ah Zheng said cheerfully: "It's okay. You can go for a while. It doesn't matter whether you come back or not. We are here and we don't need you!"
He laughed and cursed, "Fuck, you're jealous of my good luck. You won't be able to find any good stuff if I'm not here."
"Get out of here~get out of here~"
He happily carried the bucket towards the group of people digging clams. After finding Lin Xiuqing, he placed the bucket in front of her and said, "I found a grouper, it's a tiger grouper. You can take it to the purchasing point and sell it."
Alright."
"Ah? Tiger spots!" Lin Xiuqing looked at the bucket with her eyes shining in surprise, "It's such a big one!"
"What tiger spots? Third brother, have you caught tiger spots?" Ye Mu also came over in surprise.
"Tiger grouper?"
After hearing this, people around also gathered around and said, "It's really tiger spots!"
"Where did you catch it? Are you so lucky?"
"How many more stone crabs are there?"
"Oh, there are also snow clams..."
"Where did you find Dongzi? Why haven't we seen so many things before?"
"When we go down to the beach, we always only pick up a few jumping fish and stone crabs. Adong is very lucky!"
Ye Yaodong ignored the surprise of the people around him and just said to Lin Xiuqing: "You guys make a bucket to put the fish in, and then take this tiger spot to the purchasing point to sell it. This bucket belongs to A Guang, I want to take it and return it to him."
Let him take a look around to see if there is anything else he can pick up."
"Okay, I'll pour the clams into the bucket. You wait a moment." Lin Xiuqing smiled brightly and quickly and actively vacated the bucket.
He estimated that this tiger spot could only be sold for three yuan, and he didn't bother to go to the purchasing point. After pouring the fish into his wife's bucket, he took the empty bucket and his own bucket and continued walking down the beach.
"Wait a moment!"
Ye Mu stopped him, "Don't you still have snow clams in your bucket? How many are there? If there are more, take them out together and ask Ah Qing to take them to the purchasing point and sell them. Why put them in there?"
"Ah? Do you want to sell snow clams too?"
"Of course, of course you have to sell the valuable ones," Ye Mu took his bucket and shook it, "The ones you picked up are almost as big as the fish balls. They weigh more than a kilogram, and they can be sold for one."
If you don’t sell the two yuan together, how can you still use it to eat?”
"Okay... let's sell them together."
Lin Xiuqing actually wanted to say this just now, but she was afraid that he would be unhappy. After all, he had already donated a tiger stripe. If Ye Mu was there now, she would be so happy that she wanted to take it out.
"Be careful, those stone crabs can bite you with their big pincers, I'll do it."
Ye Yaodong stopped his wife from reaching out and went to take out a few stone crabs from the bucket. He stepped on them with his feet to prevent them from crawling around. Then he took out the snow clams and threw them into the bucket with tiger spots.
"Is this bad? There are only a few worthless stone crabs, sword shrimps, and jumping fish. There is only one nine-section shrimp that cannot be sold for any money."
Mother Ye nodded with satisfaction, "You have been lucky these past two days. You may not encounter tiger spots even if you go fishing on the beach for several years. You can go and look around again. If there are good goods, bring them to your wife.
Sell."
"It's so easy to find it anywhere. Why do you think it's Chinese cabbage? It's only because of the tide in the past two days that you can pick up something. It's just luck to find something. Do you really think that the beach is full of goods and you can just pick it up?"
"So Aguang always kept the bucket empty? Seeing that the women on the side were very moved, he said quickly.
Otherwise, if they didn't dig clams, they would all go to the sea, and he wouldn't have to go.
I've been really lucky lately!
"That's what I said. If I didn't tell you this, you would have done me a favor if you turned around!" Mother Ye glared at him and said angrily.
Who didn't know that he was trying his luck? How could she not know how many things there were on their beach?
"Didn't I send it here? There is no Huo Huo..."
"Go, go, let me go down and take a look."
Hey, he's turned it in, and his mother has to be nagging. It's really not easy to change the family's opinion of him, but it doesn't matter. According to his previous life, he lived to be 65 before dying. He still has several decades left. Slowly.
Come on, just accept it subtly.
