In 1983, a small island started from a large farmer

Chapter 85 The Spring Thunder Sounds, The Storm Comes (for further reading)
On the fishing raft.

Li Duoyu and Chen Wenchao sat on bamboo chairs, fishing while listening to the radio.

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

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

The two people's fishing method is also very simple, they directly start with the line, and the bait is the local clamworm, a long worm that looks very similar to a centipede.

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

In later generations, it has become a treasure. The price of wild sea centipede once soared to two to three hundred yuan per catty, and the price did not drop until it was mass-breeded.

There is an advantage to using sea centipede as bait.

It is an arthropod, even if it is caught by a fishhook, it is not so easy to die, and it is very active on the bottom of the sea.

And the more diligently it breaks free, the easier it is for those predatory 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.

Seeing such an arrogant sea centipede.

Sea fish can't bear it, of course they just open their mouths and bite.

Sure enough, within a few minutes of shaking, Li Duoyu suddenly felt the fishing line under his fingers tighten.

There was another fish biting the hook.

After learning from the experience of getting their hands cut by fishing lines and hooks during longline fishing last time, both of them took protective measures this time, and both wore cotton gloves.

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

Chen Wenchao also caught a black snapper.

Since the two often make nests on the fishing rafts, there are quite a lot of sea fish below, so if you are serious about fishing.

It is definitely not a problem to get dozens of fish a day, but unfortunately, the bottom of the fishing raft is sandy.

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

And these fish, recently, all of them can't be sold at a high price. Since he used the fixed net, until now, there are a total of more than [-] fixed nets in the whole island.

The quantity of marine fish produced by Dandan Island every day is very stable, which directly brings down the price.

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

Tired of eating, want to change the taste.

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

There are even fewer fishmongers with docks.

So at this time, the price of a catty of black sea bream is only five cents, and sea bass is only three cents. If you fish for a whole day, you won’t earn a few dollars.

It's cheap, but it's money.

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

When the white dolphin came, the bass and snapper near the fishing raft were all scared away instantly.

Erbaiwu became very happy, jumping up and down on the fishing raft, and kept talking dog language to the white dolphin.

After seeing the white dolphins.

Li Duoyu grabbed a few small milk bass and threw them to them. It may be because of feeding too much. This family of white dolphins is very close to them.

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

After fishing the big fish.

Li Duoyu, who was in a good mood, finally said to Chen Wenchao: "Chaozi, there is something I need to trouble you for."

I heard Li Duoyu call him "Super Son".

Chen Wenchao couldn't help feeling tense. In the past, when he couldn't get along well, everyone called him a local dog.

Ever since he started earning money, people stopped calling him Tugou, the elders called him Xiaochao, and the new generation of street sneakers started calling him Brother Chao.

But Li Duoyu seldom calls him "Chaozi". Every time he calls him that way, 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 nothing serious, just let you 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 say anything, but you guessed it. This time I'm going to buy four carts of moso bamboo from Brother Ou."

Chen Wenchao smiled wryly.

The last time I took the car, I vomited like a dog, but now my sister-in-law has such a big belly, 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 already decided to leave early tomorrow, bring an extra pair of liberation shoes and walk into Dazhu Village, and bring a hatchet for self-defense.

"Brother Yu, when shall I go?"

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

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

But when the two of them had just put away their fishing lines and were about to return to Hong Kong, they found that something was wrong with the sky, and dark clouds billowed up.

A thunderbolt exploded out of thin air.

The white dolphin, who was playing with Erbaiwu, was scared by the thunder and got into the sea.

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

This is the first thunder after the beginning of spring.

For those who grow crops:

With the sound of spring thunder, everything grows!

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

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

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

The white dolphin, who had been frightened just now, came back bravely. After seeing Erbaiwu playing in the water, he also spit out a jet of water from his mouth, which smeared his face and made him bark in anger.

After a while, the rain became heavier and heavier.

The sky quickly darkened.

The water curtain falling from the bamboo roof has become a water column.

At this moment, the visibility on the sea surface was less than 50 meters, and there were small white-headed waves blown by the strong wind.

Li Duoyu felt something was wrong. In the past, when the spring thunder rang, there were indeed heavy rains.

But not so big.

Now the fishing rafts are shaking, and the sound of "creaking" can be heard frequently, and the sound of moso bamboo bursting can be heard.

After encountering this sudden sea condition, Chen Wenchao also became nervous. Although he thought he was good at swimming, he would be foolish when encountering such waves, but now he was more worried.

"Brother Yu, the waves are so big, can our fishing raft hold up?"

"It's hard to say."

Li Duoyu's face was serious. Logically speaking, there shouldn't be such a level of strong wind and rainstorm.

But as a human being in two lives, he knows very well that the ghost weather in this world has never been reasoned with you, and disasters often happen in unpredictable circumstances.

"Go, get out of here first."

Li Duoyu picked up the two hundred and five on the spot, braved the rain, and threw it on the sampan first, and then got on the sampan.

And Chen Wenchao still wanted to use the net to catch the sea fish in the cage. Li Duoyu scolded: "What time is it? I still care about the fish. I have so many kelp, I don't care."

Chen Wenchao looked at the hundreds of fish in the net cage, and his face was full of reluctance. He had spent all his hard work in the past half month.

If the wind and waves get bigger, 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 boat.

In the rainstorm.

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