little fisherman catching the sea

Chapter 78 Confidence
Li Haoyuan and Xu Pengfei seemed to be extremely high-spirited, and they naturally hoped to catch Tulong.This thing is valuable and rare, which naturally makes them look more focused and hardworking.

While they were busy, Zhang Miao was not idle either. He and his father were also looking for traces of the earth dragon.

Discovering some movement again, Zhang Miao was a little excited, "Dad, there seems to be an earth dragon over there."

"If it's really an earth dragon, the two of us will get rich today." Zhang Liye laughed, and couldn't help but look forward to it, "Did you really see it?"

Zhang Miao can be sure that a small thing poked its head out of the hole just now.Even if it's just a flash, Zhang Miao can be sure that he has just seen a suspected earth dragon. Of course, it is worth trying.

The two approached lightly. Zhang Liye, who was holding the iron tongs, nodded, and Zhang Miao immediately threw the clam meat into the hole.

Gently shaking the rope in his hand, and slowly moving it out, Zhang Miao hoped that the gluttonous and aggressive Tulong would not be able to hold back.It is true that earth dragons are rare, but they are also eels, with a generally gluttonous and aggressive character.

Zhang Miao, who was paying close attention to the entrance of the cave, showed joy, and continued to drag the rope gently and at a constant speed.

Zhang Liye quickly clamped the moray eel and dragged it out. The length of the eel was close to one meter, and its size was relatively large.

"It's the snake eel." Zhang Liye observed it carefully, and said with some disappointment, "It's not bad, more than 100 catties."

Of course Zhang Miao was a little disappointed that he didn't catch another earth dragon.But Zhang Miao also understands that such things are normal. In the final analysis, if the earth dragons were so easy to catch, then their prices would not be so high.

Continue to search, not to mention the existence of a suspected earth dragon, even if you notice a small hole, Zhang Miao has to study it carefully.After all, the price of Tulong is so exciting that he can't help but not work hard and focus.

"It's okay, I picked up a bargain." Zhang Miao laughed, and stepped on a swimming crab, "I'll cook porridge when I go back."

Zhang Miao bent down to pick up the swimming crab, and simply washed it in the sea less than ten centimeters deep.Throwing it into the bucket, this swimming crab is indeed Zhang Miao's unexpected harvest, and it can be used as a tooth sacrifice.

Zhang Liye was a little amused, and then asked, "Do you know how much our family spends on food a day?"

Seeing his son shaking his head blankly, Zhang Liye said with a smile, "You now eat seafood for three meals a day. Although we catch them ourselves, these things are not cheap. Have porridge casserole with swimming crab in the morning and grilled saury at noon , Fry a balang, maybe even fry an octopus or octopus at night, and eat it for 100 yuan."

Zhang Miao laughed, a little smug, "In this way, 100 yuan is more than [-] yuan, and it costs [-] yuan."

"It's okay. Fortunately, our family eats it." Zhang Liye laughed, and didn't particularly care, "The main reason is that we catch more fish and shrimp, and we can afford it now. I just don't understand, how do you Seafood is inseparable from three meals a day now?"

Why are you laughing, of course, eating seafood is helpful for improving your eyesight, and that's the most important thing.

"Uncle, is this an earth dragon?" Li Haoyuan and Xu Pengfei ran over happily and full of expectations.

Amidst their nervousness and expectation, Zhang Miao said directly, "Forget you earned one hundred and fifty, one snake eel!"

"One hundred and two!" Zhang Liye smiled, and said, "It's just an ordinary snake eel. You can look for it later. Even if you can't catch the earth dragon today, you can earn more snake eels. It's quite a valuable thing."

This is indeed a very valuable thing. Even if you can't catch more valuable earth dragons, it can be said that it is a very good strategy to catch more snake eels. After all, the market value of snake eels is still quite good. of.

Picking up a conch and throwing it into the bucket, Zhang Miao and his father continued to walk on the mud and waves, let’s just say they were walking on the waves, it sounds a little more handsome and chic, and it doesn’t look so embarrassing .

Originally, they were only looking for mud areas and shallow water beaches a few centimeters or more than ten centimeters deep, but there were not many discoveries in these places for the time being.

Since this is the case, it is natural to move towards a deeper area. In order to make money, you need to put in more effort, even if it is possible that the difficulty will continue to increase.

"The tide is starting to rise." Zhang Liye was a little worried, and said, "I think we can catch four or ten minutes at most, and we will withdraw soon."

Zhang Miao is quite familiar with the mangrove forest, so he said, "This is the mouth of the river, which is a little lower. Walk to the east, and the other side is a little higher, so you should be able to catch it again."

"It's not good over there. There are basically no fish and shrimps there." Zhang Liye said, talking about the situation he knew, "When the tide ebbs, it will dry up there immediately, and the mud will form lumps. Winter and spring are better, and summer If so, there must be no fish at this time.”

Zhang Miao didn't say that she had to go and see it, or that if she was lucky, Zhang Miao didn't think that she was the "most special" one.

Sometimes I have to be convinced of some experience, which is the experience of several years or decades of exploration.Running to try to be brave at this time is a waste of time and energy, and it is not worthwhile.

It is more important to seize the time, or to work hard to improve the catch while the tide has not yet fully risen, time is money!

"Dad, ahead!" Zhang Miao suddenly became excited. He saw a bald tail shaking constantly, which made Zhang Miao feel familiar, and it also made Zhang Miao feel that good luck had come again.

Zhang Liye looked at the front carefully, as if he couldn't see anything at all, it was just the muddy sea water, what was there in front of him?

After approaching, Zhang Liye smiled.His son's eyesight is really good, he actually saw this cave, a new cave, maybe there will be something interesting inside.

"My hands are relatively steady, and I can strike quickly." Looking at his father, Zhang Miao said expectantly, "Old man, how about I catch the earth dragon this time?"

Zhang Liye glared at his son, and said ruthlessly, "It's hard to say whether it's an earth dragon or a snake eel, who knows what it is! Besides, if it's really an earth dragon, I'd hate you to pinch it even more. Clamp it tightly, If I hurt the earth dragon, the price will be affected. If I didn’t catch it, I would have slipped away with a lot of money.”

It seems that he is really not trusted. This rookie fisherman still needs more to prove his strength and more records to prove himself.

But most importantly, for Zhang Miao, he still needs to constantly improve some skills and gain some experience, and only in this way can he take over some seemingly difficult jobs.

Since he didn't gain more trust, and it seemed that he couldn't do more technically difficult, bold and careful tasks, Zhang Miao also quickly recognized the reality, and he was better at leading snakes out of their holes.

"This clam is worth it!" Looking at the clam meat at the end of the rope, Zhang Miao laughed, "I'm about to catch the third eel, and it's still neat. This can also explain the ability of some people, such as Someone with quick eyesight and quick hands!"

Zhang Liye rolled his eyes at his self-proclaimed son, and urged, "Catch fish with peace of mind, and stop talking nonsense!"

Holding the rope, it is a bit difficult to place the clam meat precisely at the hole.The main reason is that the water is a little bit deep, and Zhang Miao can only adjust it, shaking the rope constantly, and slowly moving the clam meat towards the entrance of the cave.

"Huh?" Zhang Miao was overjoyed, she couldn't see the whole picture, but she could see some things, "You can't wait, that's good!"

The earth dragon in the cave was staring at the clam meat restlessly, and it would never have thought that someone with a discerning eye could see it.

Zhang Miao could indeed see it and confirm its identity.Although he was hiding in the cave, the small opening could not be completely closed, so Zhang Miao could naturally see the earth dragon eager to try in the cave.

When the earth dragon suddenly bit the clam meat that came to the entrance of the cave, Zhang Miao dragged the earth dragon's head out of the cave at a constant speed.Zhang Liye acted decisively, clamped the earth dragon with iron tongs, and dragged it to the cave.

"Earth Dragon!" Zhang Miao smiled happily and was very satisfied, "Although it is smaller, it is indeed an Earth Dragon!"
