Back to the small fishing village in 1982Y

Chapter 318 Squid
He woke up on time at the end of the night, seeing the three boys on the bed sleeping crookedly, the corner of his mouth couldn't help twitching.

Ye Chengyang was still lying there, sleeping with his butt out, in the same posture.

Lin Guangyuan is so big that he is sleeping with his feet up on the iron railing at the end of the bed?

Head under Ye Chengyang's ass?
Ye Chenghu was even more exaggerated, both feet were on the ground, but his upper body was still lying on the bed...

I don't know how to sleep, the three of them can still sleep like this?

No quilt is covered at all, and the sleeping positions are more strange than the other!
I don't know if I don't look at it, I was shocked when I saw it, and I don't know how they slept last night, is it the same?
It's a pity that I don't have a mobile phone, otherwise I can take a few pictures and let them look at it by themselves tomorrow.

He just hugged Ye Chenghu up and lay down. He heard him grunt and rolled over again. The posture of the other two people didn't care about them. The night was still long, and they would still move when they lay upright.

After covering them all with quilts, he went out.

Generally, before and after the Grain Rains season, the rain will be relatively concentrated. It was true that it rained intermittently for a long time a while ago, and it has cleared up occasionally for a few days this month.

Everyone took advantage of the good weather to go out to sea quickly. During this time, a hundred fish came ashore, and it was the time when the fish were plump and plump.

Because of the accumulation of a winter, the fish has accumulated a large amount of nutrients at this time, and it has reached the spawning period, so the body of the fish at this time is fat and firm.

After Ye Yaodong put down the row hook, he went to set the ground cage, and then dragged two more nets. The harvest was very good, and he caught a large amount of mackerel and swimming crab, as well as other fishes and shrimps.

With the help of the net hoist, they don't have to work hard at all when rewinding, and they have a lot of cargo.

But today he was still going to touch sea cucumbers and abalones. After dragging three nets, he called it a day and went to the reef. Father Ye didn't say much.

The value of abalone and sea cucumber is much higher than these fish products, and seeing that Dongzi has been safe in the water several times, he feels relieved and doesn't worry too much.

After Ye Yaodong put on all the diving equipment, he put on the snorkel and headed straight to the bottom of the sea.

He didn't plan to collect the ground cages today. The time for releasing them was too short, and the harvest was very average. The harvest of each ground cage was very small. Originally, the amount he released was very small, only one row.

He plans to collect it when he arrives tomorrow. If the weather is bad, he will collect it two or three days later. It’s not a big problem. There are hidden reefs nearby. Once the cage is put down, it will be stuck there, and the probability of being washed away by the waves Also relatively small.

If it is stored for a day or two longer, there will be more goods, and it will save it from being stuck there every day. He has to go to the ground cage first when he enters the water.

As soon as he stepped into the water, he found that there were more fish and shrimps around him than he had seen in the previous few times when he went into the water. It may also be because the surrounding area is a submerged reef and it is not easy to trawl. It seems that the fish and shrimps tend to gather more and more, which is convenient. Without him, it should be good to put a ground cage for a day or two.

Today, he doesn’t need to look for ground cages everywhere. He has plenty of time, and he doesn’t care about those fish and shrimps as usual. He goes straight to the sea cucumbers on the bottom of the sea, planning to find sea cucumbers first, catch a few small green dragons by the way, and dig some abalones in the last 10 minutes. Fill the net pocket.

The ideal is full, and the reality is also very powerful.

Sea cucumbers crawling on the bottom of the sea like snails are easy to find as long as they are not hidden in seaweed or seaweed.

The black ones lying there are quite eye-catching, but there are not many of them. He wandered around and only found seven or eight, and he still had to go to the seaweed and seaweed to pick them up.

Searching all the way along the seaweed bushes, when he passed a small coral reef, he saw many transparent long things like bunches of grapes hanging on it.

The shapes of the corals on the surrounding coral reefs are very similar to the branches, and they are colorful. Looking at it closely, it looks like many lively elves gathered together. When there is a slight flow of sea water, they will dance together, driving a series of "grapes" on it. Follow the swing.

He paused curiously, and carefully identified the bunches, which were like grapes, seemed to be squid eggs?

The substance inside the transparent ball is very clear, and if you look carefully, you can still vaguely see the little squid jumping inside.

Coral reefs should not be touched randomly. It takes a long time to form, and there are living coral polyps inside. If you touch the coral on the bottom of the sea, it will die immediately, and some types of coral are poisonous.

Ye Yaodong has always cherished his life, he never touched those he didn't know, even if he recognized the squid eggs hanging on it, he didn't move.

All the babies were born, of course it was allowed to hatch naturally.

At the same time, he also pondered in his heart that it seemed that it was the season for squid to lay eggs, and these squid eggs should not have been laid for a long time.

The squid fishing season is from the end of April to May, just in time for it to lay eggs!

Thinking of this in his heart, he also went to look around for a cage, and saw a few squids moving in the cage closest to him. He was a little moved, but it was not the time for him to use his brain.

These ground cages can wait until tomorrow to collect more nets.

It took a lot of time to find sea cucumbers to catch Xiaoqinglong, and now he has to dig abalones to fill the net bag.

He dug familiarly, and when he filled it seven points full, he floated up quickly, and his time was just right when he got back.

Father Ye also used the coal stove to cook a pot of seafood noodles while he was in the water. When he got ashore, he was ready to eat without delay.

I have been trawling the net to pick goods before, and I have no time to find food and drink.

After he landed, he poured all the harvest from the net bag into the basket, and said to Father Ye while eating, "It seems that the squid fishing season has come recently, and I saw some squid eggs on the coral reefs under the sea."

Father Ye nodded, "It's almost time for the squid fishing season. Go back and get some branches to tie up and throw them into the bottom of the sea. When the squid flood season is here, catch more squid."

"Well, that's what I thought too. When I get back, I'll go to the mountain and cut more branches."

Squid usually like to swim in the open sea, and at the end of spring, they swim to the sea in groups to lay eggs.

It likes to lay its eggs on coral reefs, or on tree branches, hanging on them like bunches of grapes.

So they can bundle things like branches into bundles and throw them into the sea to lure squid to lay eggs, and when groups of squid swim to lay eggs, they can set up nets to catch them.

Ye's father is an old fisherman who knows better than him how to catch squid with branches. This is a native method. Ye Yaodong knows it, but he has never done it.

After eating one bowl, he picked up another bowl. There were a lot of sword shrimp and Pipi shrimp in it. They were so fresh that he even drank the soup before putting down the bowl and chopsticks.

"These squid die after laying eggs. When the tide ebbs at 3-4 o'clock, we will go to the nearby island to have a look."

Father Ye has no objection, the third child is already a qualified fisherman.

Ye Yaodong rested for a while after eating, and then continued to dive into the water. He went back and forth 3 times before he retracted the hook, and took a break by the way. Diving is also a physical activity.

Fortunately, there are people who can help, and they are working in rotation. It is Father Ye who is busy with the row hook, and he is watching from the side.

This time they hung a lot of sandworms, and as a result, they harvested a lot of squid and blackhead, as well as a lot of mackerel.

All the mackerel weigh more than five or six catties, and they are very fat. Now it is their spring flood season.

When there was a branch line at the back, Father Ye was struggling, so Ye Yaodong took a copy net to help. It was a mackerel weighing more than 20 kilograms, with a body length of one meter. When it landed, it struggled exceptionally. fierce.

Father Ye fought fiercely with it for a long time before he pulled it to the side of the boat and was picked up by him.

Both of them were very happy, "This one is big enough!"

"It can be sold for a good price."

"Retract the last bit of hook, go to the reef again, and grab some more goods before going back."

Father Ye hesitated, "Will I go into the water later?"

"what?"

"I'll replace it with you, so that you won't be overwhelmed."

It's better to kiss my father, he is my own.

Ye Yaodong shook his head, "That's diving, it's not a joke. The deeper the seabed, the greater the air pressure. No one will accompany you when you go into the water. You are not familiar with this, and you will be in danger. I'll do it, you will be there." It's fine on the shore."

"Knowing that there is danger, you just jumped down at that time, and it took so long to go down, and you were tossing around..."

"Well, because I'm sure." Ye Yaodong interrupted his father's chatter.

Don't interrupt him, he can talk for a long time, I don't know if he has lived with his mother for a long time, the two are sometimes exactly the same.

After collecting the hooks, Ye Yaodong drove the boat towards the hidden reef, but when he passed near Oarfish Island, he saw many white unidentified objects covering the beach from a distance.

And as the waves washed away, many white figures were sent to the beach in the shallow water.

He has already regarded this place as his lucky island, and this sea area is his lucky sea.

Reminiscent of his previous discoveries, he turned the bow of the boat and headed towards the island.

"Those are squids, right?" Father Ye also saw it and guessed.

"should be."

Cuttlefish grow fast and can only survive for about one or two years, and die after laying eggs.

The tide was ebbing at the moment, and the water level on the beach was very shallow, so he could only go around to the side to dock, and then he and Father Ye got off the boat with tools, ready to walk towards the beach with the water.

As soon as they entered the water, the father and son discovered that the white thing that was surging with the tide was indeed a squid. As the tide receded, it also ran aground on the beach.

Ye Yaodong joyfully picked up the handmade net and took a look at it. It was dark white, and after smelling it there was a faint smell of the sea, and then he handed it to his father.

"It's still fresh."

Father Ye also sniffed it and touched its belly. The flesh is plump and elastic, and the bone plate on the back is also intact, so he said happily: "Hurry up and pick it up, the tide is just out."

"Go to the beach first, there are quite a few of them."

The two walked up the water, and Ye Yaodong handed one of the sacks in the bucket to his father while walking.

"I feel like I can't pick it up..."
