Chapter 3 The Real Catch the Sea

Mutated, Zhang Miao became more and more sure that he had encountered the legendary mutation.

The poor rely on mutation, and the rich rely on technology.

Zhang Miao knew that her family wasn't very rich, but it wasn't too poor either. It should be no problem to support the family.But just encountering such a sudden change, it was still a bit sudden, and a little caught off guard.

Standing in the yard, Zhang Miao looked at the sea in the distance, "My ability can be regarded as a pair of intelligent eyes, and I can see some movements in the sea. My physical fitness has not improved, and I can't call the wind and rain. It seems a bit weak."

After slandering her superpowers just now, Zhang Miao felt that something was wrong, "I can use my eyesight well. The visibility in the sea is mediocre, but I don't seem to be affected by it. It's strange to say that fresh water seems useless, I can only see sea water. "

Since this is the case, Zhang Miao feels that he can actually make good use of such superpowers.

It doesn't matter to him whether the sea water is clear or turbid, as long as it is sea water.

Since this is the case, Zhang Miao feels that he can go to 'catch the sea'.Others can't see what's going on in the sea, but he can.

"I'm going to catch some crabs, octopuses, and conch shells. I'm sure I can make some money." Zhang Miao was a little excited and thought he could give it a try. "If the water is shallower, I can still know where to cast the net. Catch some prawns, large yellow croakers, maybe you can find some lobsters."

If you use this ability well, you might be able to make a fortune, or you might be able to create a future.

In this way, it is also a 'freelance job'. You don't need to worry about being controlled by others, and you can have more freedom.Moreover, such a job, Zhang Miao also felt that it was more in line with his personality, and he could have more free time.

Thinking about it more optimistically, learning to dive and going fishing in the sea, this kind of life is the beautiful life that Zhang Miao feels most comfortable.

Zhang Liye took out the fishing net from the utility room, which is also the daily life of fishermen.

"Dad, I'm going to catch the sea right away." Zhang Miao was eager to try it, and couldn't hold back, "Dad, how about the income of going to the sea now?"

Zhang Liye didn't raise his head, and said, "Those who often go to sea, if you are lucky, you can earn one or two hundred a day, so you can subsidize your family."

This can also be regarded as the truth, the income of catching the sea is indeed not high.It is quite normal for some experienced sea hunters to make one or two hundred a day. If they are lucky, they can certainly earn more.

It's just that there are too many uncertainties in this job, and it depends on the weather, and it is not possible to catch the sea every day.Rain, high tide or typhoon, etc., this obviously can't work.

The most important thing is that the harvest of catching the sea is relatively limited. Some catches are picked up on reefs, beaches or some small pools. If there is no accident, they are some small fish, shrimps or crabs. Not to mention the small amount, the price is normal. Not particularly high.

When it comes to prices, the prices of seafood vary from place to place, and the prices naturally vary in different seasons.

Seeing his son carrying a bucket and a shovel, Zhang Liye reminded him, "Wear water pants to avoid freezing. Wear gloves too, so don't scratch them with your hands."

Putting on the labor protection gloves, Zhang Miao felt that this was an extra protection to avoid being scratched by rocks, clam shells and the like as much as possible.

Seeing his son's full confidence, Zhang Liye shook his head, how could it be so easy to catch the sea.Catch the sea to subsidize the family is fine, but it is more difficult to make a living on this.

Zhang Liye also sighed, his son has been talking about it for the past two days, and he was expected to read and study hard at home.Exams are very difficult and the pressure of competition is very high. You have to read the books carefully so that you can gain more confidence.

It's just that now it seems that this is not realistic. This worried son seems to have no interest in reading.

Zhang Liye shook his head, thinking that he would have a good chat with his son about these things in a few days.

Zhang Miao obviously didn't know what his father was thinking, so he ran to the seaside with a bucket full of confidence.The tide has begun to ebb, and some hardworking people in the village have also come to the beach. It is estimated that there will be more and more people in the future.

Zhang Miao thinks it's better not to go to the beach or anything else, because it takes more eyesight and experience to catch the sea.A place like a small pool is more suitable for Zhang Miao. When the tide ebbs, some small fish and shrimps have no time to return to the sea, and they may have been stranded at this moment.

"I shouldn't be carrying salt, I'm not carrying razor clams."

"I don't need to bring a small shovel, I don't need to dig sand, just pick up conch shells in the sea."

Zhang Miao, who was talking to himself, was trekking hard, continuing to move forward in the muddy ground.He wanted to find some harvests with some economic value, to prove that he could earn a fairly good income from fishing, and to prove that some of his ideas were feasible.

"Huh? Silver Pomfret?"

Zhang Miao felt that he was about to get off to a good start, and his first harvest might not be considered 'small'.

There are actually many types of pomfret, such as silver pomfret, golden pomfret, knife pomfret and so on.In fact, the price of silver pomfret is not sky-high. The price of such wild golden pomfret is actually based on its size.

It is relatively normal for the smaller ones to sell for 61 or [-] catties, and the larger ones to sell [-] catties, even close to [-] yuan.But that also depends on the season and the quality of the silver pomfret.

Zhang Miao was a little agitated. This silver pomfret looked like it weighed more than a catty, so it was considered 'valuable'.

The silver pomfret was trapped in a small pool, and it had lost its chance to return to the sea.If Zhang Miao doesn't catch it now, maybe he will be taken away by others after a while.Even if it is not caught, the fish will be trapped to death on the beach when the pool dries up.

Quickly pulling out her right leg from the mud, Zhang Miao, who tried to speed up her pace, approached Yin Pomfret.Seemingly feeling some threat, Yin Pomfret began to struggle in the small pool, trying to escape.

This is easier said than done, because it met someone cold-blooded and ruthless Zhang, "Hey, run away, I will let you go for ten seconds!"

Zhang Miao experienced the sense of accomplishment of a cat catching a mouse, catching prey is fun, but enjoying the process of catching prey is also very interesting.For example, it is more interesting to see Yin Pomfret anxiously struggling in the shallow water by deliberately making a big noise.

"Hey, you jumped to the shore by yourself?"

Zhang Miao was happy, and the silver pomfret struggled and jumped up, but the silver pomfret jumped onto a small beach sadly.This is interesting, it is completely stranded now, and it can't even go back to the small pool.

"Since you don't want to live anymore, I will help you so that you don't continue to struggle!"

Smiling, he put the silver pomfret of about one and a half catties into the bucket, and Zhang Miao was going to have another look.

Standing on the small reef, Zhang Miao's eyes were constantly scanning the small pool, hoping to find more catches.

"The cat's eye snail is too small, and the mud snail is not enough. The puffer fish is fine, it's poisonous!"

There are not many catches here, Zhang Miao needs to continue to set off, one silver pomfret is not enough, far from enough.

Zhang Miao suddenly laughed, the cat's eye snail is a very interesting toy.This is a kind of conch that likes to hide in the sand after low tide, and the meat quality is also very good.

Cat's eye snails are easy to absorb water, and they absorb a lot of water.Zhang Miao grabbed the cat's-eye snail that hadn't had time to get into the sand, pinched the conch meat fiercely, and squeezed it hard.Watching the water squeezed out of the conch meat gives me a sense of accomplishment.

Catching cat's eye snails is quite interesting, and it is also an interesting toy.

Throwing the cat's eye conch into the bucket, Zhang Miao continued to set off, and still needed to continue hunting for treasures by the sea.

The cat's eye conch was caught, and Pippi Shrimp was thrown into the bucket by Zhang Miao before he could escape.Zhang Miao, who was laughing, found a field of mud snails, which was not bad in size.The razor clams that wanted to drill into the sand could not escape Zhang Miao's sharp eyes, nor could they escape Zhang Miao's sharp eyesight and quick hands.

Zhang Miao thought it was not bad, and he also felt that he had gained a lot, but he was a little tired.

Not only because Zhang Miao mainly trudges through the shallow muddy areas, but also because he needs to catch fish occasionally, which is already tiring.Furthermore, it is tiring to bend down again and again to catch fish from the sea.

In fact, Zhang Miao knows very well that catching the sea is not an easy job, it is quite tiring.

Because of the so-called tides, the tide is during the day and the tide is at night.Sometimes the tide goes out in the middle of the night, and that time seems to be the best time to catch the sea, so you have to go to the beach in the middle of the night with a strong flashlight with a heavy battery.

And the sea breeze is actually very ruthless, sunscreen or something is actually useless.People who often live by the sea are basically dark and red in complexion, and it is not easy for those with thin skin and tender flesh to live by the sea.

Although tired, Zhang Miao felt that he had gained a lot this time, and he also felt quite satisfied.Zhang Miao felt that the harvest from catching up with the sea this time was definitely not just 200 yuan, but a little bit of living expenses.

Going home, Zhang Miao felt that she could go home now.He can 'raise his eyebrows' now, I'm not just lazy, I'm not just eating and drinking, I still have some 'combat power', and I can still work hard to subsidize my family.
