Chapter 6 The Great Harvest
"Is it a sea current that rushes ginseng and bread crab from the sea to the shore?" Chen Xuan thought with a big brain, and he knew that this idea was basically impossible, but he couldn't think of a more reliable reason.
"Forget it, no matter what the reason is, in short, there is no reason not to fish for the benefits in front of him." Chen Xuan thought, and went into the sea with his net bag and mobile phone again, and arrived at the position where he found the bread crabs and crawled. The feeling of the clearness and spiritual clarity of the sea water appeared again. Then, he saw the bread crabs again. They had been frightened before and were running away, but they crawled slowly and were not escaping quickly.
Chen Xuan chased after him, took two more trips and grabbed four of them. The largest one was not spared, but it seemed that one or two of them escaped.
Chen Xuan went into the sea again, trying to find and catch the one or two. There were still some footprints on the sand layer under the sea, with traces to follow. Following the footprints for a short section, he found a messy reef. The bread crab hid in and probably wouldn't be able to find it again.
However, many fish were hiding near the reef. Chen Xuan looked closely and couldn't help but his eyes lit up. He saw that many of the fish hiding were groupers, and there were actually a few mouse spots.
The so-called mouse spots, also called blue spots, hornfish, and humpback bass, are named because of their long head and pointed mouth, and their shape resemble mice. The body is creamy, and black spots cover the whole body, making people feel very festive. Because of their tender meat and particularly delicious taste, they are one of the precious fishes of seafood and are particularly expensive in the market.
"What luck did I have today?" Chen Xuan was very excited, and at the same time he felt that he was too lucky today. Will this use up all his good luck in his life?
However, seeing the mouse spots in front of him, Chen Xuan could not bear it and swam forward quickly. As a result, the grouper was so scared that he crawled into the cracks of the reef.
Chen Xuan reached into the gap and used a mesh bag to block the mouth and tried to catch it. This primitive and clumsy catching method naturally did not work very well. Even though the mouse spots were very slow, it was in the water after all, so it was not so easy to catch. After a long time of tossing, he couldn't catch any of them. He floated up and took a breath, and continued to work hard.
I have been tossing several times, thanks to the fact that there are so many mouse spots, and finally the blind cat met a dead mouse, and the mesh bag trapped a mouse spot that emerged from the cracks of the rock. It was still very big.
"No, this is too low-efficiency and too tiring. Diving like this for a long time is not good for the health. You have to upgrade your diving equipment. Let's stop here today." Chen Xuan was so tired that he was about to float up with his mouse spots.
At this moment, he suddenly caught a glimpse of a few very beautiful shells in the sand layer under the sea, just like jade. He couldn't help but feel moved. My sister should like such beautiful shells, so she sneaked back and turned them out and put them in a net bag.
After such delay, Chen Xuan heard a vague sound, just like the neat footsteps of a team of troops. The sound went from small to large, from far to near.
"Oh no, how could there be footsteps at the bottom of the sea? I'm too tired. Are you having auditory hallucinations? No, I have to go ashore quickly." Chen Xuan panicked and quickly floated to the water.
With a rush.
Chen Xuanhai had a head high and swam quickly to the shore. Chen Xi couldn't wait to meet him and said, "Brother, what did you get this time?"
"Look." Chen Xuan showed the mouse penliang to his sister.
"Haha, this fish looks like a mouse." Chen Xi said with a smile.
"This is a mouse spot, it's very precious." Chen Xuan smiled, filling some sea water in the bucket, and then pouring the mouse spot in it.
"These shells are so beautiful." Chen Xi noticed the shells in the mesh bag.
"I also saw that these shells were pretty, so I picked them up and took them to play with them." Chen Xuan smiled and handed Chen Xi the mesh bag containing the shells.
"Thank you brother." Chen Xi happily took the net bag and took out the shell to watch and appreciate it. The more he looked at it, the more he couldn't let it go.
"It's getting late. So far today, we'll move these bread crabs and mouse spots to the dock. Boss Zhou may not have left yet," said Chen Xuan.
"Okay, that Boss Zhou is so generous. Selling these bread crabs and mouse spots to him should be able to sell them at a good price." Chen Xi was very excited.
So, Chen Xi carried the bucket and Chen Xuan carried six huge bread crabs and went to the dock with great difficulty.
At this moment, Dongsheng Town Wharf is very lively.
Chen Hua and Chen Bin are helping to move boxes of fish from the fishing boat. Because of the abundant harvest, they all smiled. This trip was probably a lot of money, with an ordinary crew member of about 20,000, while the captain Chen Yue estimated that he would be more than 60,000. As the captain, he took the biggest risk and naturally earned the most.
Looking at boxes of fish and the envious eyes of the onlookers, Chen Yue felt a sense of accomplishment and couldn't help but smile. His wife Liu Yinghua even smiled on her face and greeted her whenever she saw someone, as if she was afraid that others wouldn't know that her husband had made a lot of money.
"Old Yue, don't you send some fish to your mother and third brother?" A strong middle-aged man stood next to Chen Yue and whispered.
Chen Yue was stunned for a moment, put away his smile, hesitated for a moment, looked at Liu Yinghua, who was counting fish boxes happily not far away, shook her head and said, "Forget it."
"Oh!" The strong middle-aged man shook his head and sighed. He had a good relationship with Chen Yi and hoped that the two brothers would reconcile, but he didn't care too much about other people's affairs.
At this time, many buyers came to hear the news and began to choose to buy.
Zhou Hai was also among them. The sea cucumbers he bought from Chen Xuan had been treated with internal organs and asked someone to send them back first to entertain guests. However, he was not satisfied and wanted to choose some more precious seafood.
Chen Yue immediately came forward and faced a big customer like Zhou Hai, he naturally felt polite: "Boss Zhou, look at these pomfrets, cods, and swordfish, were all salvaged for a while, and they did the chilled work, which was very fresh."
"It's really fresh enough. I'll buy some back to the seafood shop. However, I mainly look at precious seafood." Zhou Hai said.
"There are some yellow croakers here, which is pretty good." Chen Yue said.
"Let's take a look." After Zhou Hai looked at it, he seemed not very interested. He was all small yellow croaker and could not catch his eyes.
"Boss Zhou, how can precious seafood be so easy to catch, let alone this sea area, there is almost no one." Chen Yue had no choice. They mainly salvaged some economic fish, and the number was better, and precious fish were not so easy to catch.
"Who said no? Someone just caught five ginseng on the beach with an average of one pound." Zhou Hai smiled.
"This is impossible." Chen Yue shook his head and smiled.
"There are basically no sea cucumbers in our sea area, let alone a pound of ginseng. This is a long time to talk about it." The strong middle-aged man smiled.
"Dad, there is really." Chen Bin interrupted.
"Nonsense, I have lived for more than twenty years than you. Do you know better or am I better?" The strong middle-aged man slapped Chen Bin on the back of the head.
"Really, what Ah Xuan has obtained, we have seen it with our own eyes." Chen Bin defended.
"It's true, I'll see it with my own eyes," Chen Hua echoed.
"Really or not?" Chen Yue, Chen Bin's father and others were shocked and suspicious.
"Really..." Chen Bin talked about the process of catching Chen Xuan with a phoenix and selling it for 1,500 yuan.
"There are such a big sea cucumbers on our beach?" Chen Bin's father was surprised.
"I've grown up so old that I haven't even caught a pound of sea cucumbers. This kind of good thing has actually been encountered by this kid."
"Haha, this kid is amazing."
Several middle-aged men couldn't help but talk happily. They had a good relationship with Chen Xuan's father Chen Yi, and they treated Chen Xuan as if they were nephews.
"Isn't it just that the blind cats made some money when they met a dead mouse, what's the point?" Liu Yinghua curled her lips when she heard them, and was very disdainful.
