1983 Small Island, Starting From a Large Farmer Chapter 85

Chapter 85 The spring thunder sounds and the storm comes (please follow up)

On the fishing raft.

Li Duoyu and Chen Wenchao were sitting on bamboo chairs, listening to the radio and fishing.

Li Duoyu originally wanted to buy a fishing rod, but there was no bamboo suitable for making fishing rods on Dandan Island.

If you want a fishing rod, you have to go to Dazhu Village to find it.

The fishing method for the two of them is also very simple. They just use the line directly. The bait is the local lugworm, a long worm that looks like a centipede.

And this kind of thing, just like sea anemones, sea intestines, and pen holders, fishermen in this era would not eat it at all.

In later generations, they became a treasure. The price of wild sea centipedes once soared to two to three hundred yuan per pound. It was not until they were mass-cultured that the price dropped.

There is an advantage to using sea centipedes as bait.

It is an arthropod. Even if it is caught by a fishhook, it will not die easily. It is very active on the seabed.

The more diligently it breaks free, the easier it is for those predatory and ferocious fish to notice it.

In addition, the middle fingers of Li Duoyu and Chen Wenchao kept shaking the fishing line at a very high frequency.

Saw such an arrogant sea centipede.

Where can the sea fish stand, of course, bite when you open your mouth.

Sure enough, after Li Duoyu had been shaking for a few minutes, he suddenly felt the fishing line on his finger tighten.

A fish bites the hook again.

Learning from the experience of their hands being cut by fishing lines and hooks during longline fishing last time, both of them took precautions this time and wore cotton gloves.

Not long after, a small milk bass weighing more than three kilograms was pulled up.

Chen Wenchao also caught a black sea bream.

Since the two often make nests on the fishing raft, there are quite a lot of sea fish below, if you fish seriously.

It is definitely not a problem to catch dozens of fish a day, but it is a pity that there is a muddy bottom under the fishing raft.

The species caught are also relatively simple, either sea bass or black sea bream.

These fish, however, have recently been unable to be sold at high prices. Since he used the fixed net, there are now more than twenty fixed nets on the island.

The amount of marine fish produced on Dandan Island every day is very stable, which directly drives down the price.

Of course there are many reasons why the price cannot be sold. One is that during the festival, everyone ate too much seafood.

I am tired of eating and want to change my taste.

Another thing is that now is the spring fishing season, the seafood production is too large, and supply exceeds demand again.

There are even fewer fishmongers at the pier.

So at this time, the price of a pound of black sea bream is only 5 cents, and the price of sea bass is only 3 cents. If you fish for a whole day, you will not make a few dollars.

Although it is cheap, it is still money.

But when they were halfway through fishing, a few uninvited guests came. After seeing the group of squealing monsters, Li Duoyu knew that today's fishing ended early.

As soon as the white dolphins arrived, all the bass and bream near the fishing rafts were instantly scared away.

　　　二百五 became very happy, jumping up and down on the fishing raft, and kept talking dog language to the white dolphins.

After seeing the white dolphin.

Li Duoyu caught a few small milk bass and threw them to them. Maybe because they were fed too much, this family of white dolphins were very close to them.

Every few days, he would come to the kelp field and even let Li Duoyu touch his fish head.

After catching the big fish.

Li Duoyu, who was in a good mood, finally said to Chen Wenchao: "Chaozi, I have something to trouble you about."

I heard Li Duoyu call him "Chaozi".

Chen Wenchao couldn't help but feel nervous. In the past, when he couldn't get along well, everyone called him a country dog.

Since he started making money seriously, people no longer call him a country dog. The elders have changed their name to Xiao Chao, and the new generation of street gangsters have also begun to call him Chao Ge.

But Li Duoyu rarely calls him "Chaozi". Every time he calls him that, there must be something wrong.

“Brother Yu, what's the matter?”

"Actually, it's not a big deal." "You don't have to be so nervous. It's not a big deal. I just want you to go on a business trip."

Chen Wenchao had an ominous premonition and had already guessed: "Do you want me to go to Dazhu Village?"

“Chaozi, it's getting better and better. I didn't even say it, so you guessed it. This time I want to buy four carts of moso bamboo from Brother Ou.”

Chen Wenchao had a wry smile on his face.

Last time I was in a car, I vomited like a dog, but now my sister-in-law's belly is so big that Brother Yu really can't get away, but it's okay, if he goes alone, he doesn't need to take the car.

Chen Wenchao has decided to leave early tomorrow, bring an extra pair of Jiefang shoes to walk into Dazhu Village, and take a hatchet for self-defense.

“Brother Yu, when should I go?”

"You can leave tomorrow. I have already written to Brother Ou. When the time comes, you can just bring the money."

I hope that I will never run into Brother Ou again on the road. He really doesn't want to vomit all the way again.

The two of them had just put away their fishing lines and were about to return to the harbor when they found something was wrong in the sky and dark clouds were rolling in.

A thunder exploded out of thin air.

The white dolphin that was playing with Erbai5 was frightened by the thunder and got into the sea.

Immediately afterwards, heavy rain came and strong winds blew from the sea.

This is the first thunder after the beginning of spring.

For those who grow crops:

As soon as spring thunder rings, all things grow!

But for their fishermen on the coast, spring thunder means that the sea surface temperature has begun to rise, and the rainy season and extreme weather will also come one after another.

From the day when the spring thunder sounds, fishermen have to be extremely careful to observe the weather and wind and waves when they go to sea.

The heavy rain hit the bamboo house, making a crackling sound, while Erbaiwu played happily in the rain and even licked the rainwater.

The white dolphin, which had been frightened just now, came back with courage. After seeing Erbaiwu playing in the water, it spit out a jet of water from its mouth, which licked its face and made it bark in anger.

After a while, the rain became heavier and heavier.

The sky quickly darkened.

The water curtains on the bamboo roof turned into water pillars.

At this moment, the visibility on the sea surface was less than fifty meters, and small white-headed waves appeared on the sea surface blown by the strong wind.

Li Duoyu felt something was wrong. In the past, when spring thunder sounded, there would often be heavy rains.

But not that big.

Now the fishing rafts are shaking, and you can even hear frequent "crunching" sounds, and even the sound of bamboo bursting.

After encountering such sudden sea conditions, Chen Wenchao also became nervous. Although he felt that he was good at swimming, he felt weak when encountering such waves, but he was more worried now.

“Brother Yu, the waves are so big, can our fishing rafts hold on?”

“It's hard to talk about.”

Li Duoyu's face was solemn. Logically speaking, there should not be strong winds and heavy rains of this level.

But as a man of two generations, he knew very well that the terrible weather in this world has never made sense to you, and disasters often occur under unpredictable circumstances.

“Let's go, get out of here first.”

Li Duoyu picked up the two hundred and fifty on the spot, threw it onto the sampan in the rain, and then got on the sampan.

Chen Wenchao also wanted to use the net to catch the fish in the cage. Li Duoyu scolded: "What time has it been? You still care about the fish. I have so much kelp, I don't care about it."

Chen Wenchao looked at the hundreds of fish in the cage with a look of reluctance on his face. He had spent the past half month working hard here.

If the wind and waves get stronger, the fishing raft will definitely not be able to hold on. Seeing that Li Duoyu has already started the diesel engine.

Chen Wenchao had no choice but to jump on the sampan.

In heavy rain.

The small sampan boat was ups and downs in the wind and waves, but it still returned to the dock without any danger.
