Qin Xiaoyue received the task and walked out of the yard happily.

At eight o'clock in the morning, Li Yichen and Qin Xiaoyue made egg-filled pancakes and radish soup.

The old village chief and his wife also appeared at the gate of the courtyard on time, with a live fish in his hands.

Li Yichen hurriedly called them in, but couldn't refuse, so he reluctantly accepted the fish and put it in a bucket to raise.

Then he guided the old village chief and his wife to prepare food at the dining table, and Qin Xiaoyue quickly set the table and sat down to have breakfast together.

The freshly baked egg-filled pancakes are fragrant and crispy, and the steamed eggs filled inside are also particularly fragrant and tender. Wrapped in lettuce and served with fragrant and refreshing radish soup, everyone has no time to chat.

"The egg-filled pancakes are delicious, just like the ones sold."

Wang Gaoming took away the entire pot, squatted on the ground, ate half a piece of egg-filled pancake, and drank the radish soup in the pot with a spoon.

After breakfast, Li Yichen asked the old village chief.

"I heard from Director Wang that there is a legend on Fuhua Island. It is said that as long as you throw down the fishing rod and do nothing, you can catch all kinds of big fish. Is that true?"

"This is not a legend..."

The old village chief and his wife laughed.

"Fuhua Island has always been like this."

Chapter 160 The correct way to open Fuhua Island (please subscribe)

Li Yichen and Qin Xiaoyue both looked surprised when they heard the old village chief's words.

They fished at the pier for about three hours yesterday, but didn't catch anything.

No, this statement is not quite accurate.

Li Yichen caught a stone.

"Please teach us."

Li Yichen humbly asked for advice.

"Ha ha……"

The old village chief smiled and said: "If you want to live on Fuhua Island, you must know two basic knowledge related to the ocean. The first is current, and the second is tide.

The current affects whether we can catch fish, and the tide is related to our safety when going out to sea.

Let’s talk about the most important tide first. Do you know what time the high tide and low tide are on Fuhua Island today? "

Li Yichen and Qin Xiaoyue both shook their heads at the same time: "I don't know."

"The tides around Fuhua Island are called semidiurnal tides, which means that there are two high tides and two low tides in a day. The process of high tide and low tide is about six hours apart."

Maybe it’s been a long time since I had the opportunity to meet Xiaobai Zhi, who didn’t understand anything, on Fuhua Island. The old village chief spoke slowly and patiently.

"Today's high tide time is about 06 noon and 30 am, and the low tide time is about [-] am and [-]:[-] pm..."

Qin Xiaoyue didn't feel anything special, she just wanted to sleep, and her sleepiness began to rise.

Li Yichen recalled that when he went for a walk after six o'clock in the morning, he found that the reason why the islanders were particularly busy at that time was because the tide was low at six o'clock in the morning.

He had a feeling of enlightenment, a sense of accomplishment that the puzzle had been solved, and a feeling of admiration for the old village chief. He could easily tell the highs and lows of these four key things. Timing, there must be some secret!

Li Yichen asked curiously: "Is there any special way to calculate the time of high and low tide?"

The old village chief said calmly: "Look at the weather forecast..."

"?!"

Li Yichen's eyes widened, feeling ashamed that he had failed in his 12 years of compulsory education and four years of higher education.

I actually forgot about science!

"Hahaha……"

The program team burst into laughter when they heard the old village chief's unexpected and reasonable answer, especially when paired with Li Yichen's dumbfounded expression.

"Ha ha……"

The old village chief himself also laughed: "However, we folk do have our own method to roughly calculate the time of high and low tide every day, which is calculated using the lunar calendar.

The first and fifteenth days of the lunar month are both at 29 o'clock in the morning and evening. From the second to the fourteenth day of the lunar month, multiply the lunar calendar by [-]. From the [-]th day to the [-]th, subtract [-] and multiply by [-].

The calculated number is the time of the highest tide every day. By adding and subtracting six hours, you can roughly know the time of high and low tide every day.

However, compared with the accurate time in the weather forecast, the difference between this algorithm and the accurate time will be about one hour.

So now before we go to sea, for the sake of safety, we will check the weather forecast first. "

"So that's it...I understand..."

Li Yichen nodded and did a mental calculation. Today is the 28th of the lunar calendar. The calculated time is 10.4, which is the climax at 25:[-] in the morning.

Push forward six hours, and the low tide is 25:25. Push back six hours, and the second low tide is [-]:[-] p.m.

The difference was indeed more than an hour, and the error was actually quite large.

No wonder everyone now chooses to believe the weather forecast.

However, the ancestors were able to sum up this simple and easy-to-use method, and their wisdom is amazing.

"Ha~"

Qin Xiaoyue finally couldn't hold it back, pretended to tie her shoelaces, lowered her head and hid under the table, and secretly yawned.

I have long been confused by this addition, subtraction, multiplication and division.

I admired Li Yichen even more. He was able to chat with the old village chief. It was amazing.

"I'll go get everyone some water..."

Qin Xiaoyue found an excuse to serve tea to the big guys and slipped away.

If she sat and listened any longer, she might actually fall asleep.

At this time, Li Yichen felt that he still had unfinished knowledge and was very interested in this knowledge, because it was related to their living standards on Fuhua Island.

“So what can we do when the tide is low?”

Li Yichen asked the old village chief a very targeted question, and added: "When I went for a walk at around six o'clock in the morning, I saw many people carrying buckets and walking to the west of the island because the tide was low there. Can you find something to eat?"

"Good question."

The old village chief smiled and said: "On the west cliff, if you climb down the cliff, a rocky beach will be exposed when the tide is low. We here are used to calling that place 'Little Pillow'.

After the small pillow appears, you can dig abalone under the rock, pick turtle feet from the rock crevices, scrape seaweed on the rock surface... there are many seafood.

There is another place to go after low tide on Fuhua Island. It is a beach on the east side. We here are used to calling that place "Big Pillow".

Over at Dazhen, large and small puddles will form after low tide. If you are lucky, you can catch some fish, shrimps, crabs, and even sea eels left behind in the puddles. "

"Wow……"

Li Yichen's eyes lit up. This was all valuable information about the source of food.

I can finally get rid of the days of drinking cabbage soup and radish soup every now and then.

"What about the fishing spots? There should be fishing spots that everyone often goes to, right?"

Li Yichen asked.

"This is the water flow problem I haven't talked about yet..."

Qin Xiaoyue brought water over and gave each of the old village chief and his wife a glass. When she heard that the old village chief was about to start a long speech, she took away the glass of water that was originally intended for Li Yichen.

"There seems to be something dirty at the bottom of the cup. I'll go get another cup."

After speaking, he turned around and slipped away again.

The old village chief took a sip of water and began to teach patiently and carefully again.

"...The characteristics of running water can be divided into two parts: visible and hidden..."

"...So, where there is current, fish will be more active, but where there is dead flow, there are almost no fish..."

"...In addition, some sea surfaces appear white, as if there is a layer of oil floating on them, reflecting white light. It is easy to catch fish in this water area. On the contrary, it is not easy to catch fish in places where the water is too clear..."

"... Fuhua Island has two fishing spots that everyone often goes to..."

"...As for sea fishing, there are three major categories: rock fishing, beach fishing, and raft fishing..."

"...There are three major techniques, floating fishing, bottom fishing, and drag fishing..."

"...There are 25 commonly used fishing methods, which is the '25 methods of sea fishing'..."

The old village chief taught this basic lesson until it was almost noon, and finally stopped because he was not satisfied.

It had been a long time since anyone had heard him talk about these things.

"My child, if you want to know anything in the future, come and ask me."

The old village chief left these words and happily went home with his wife.

After seeing off the old village chief and his wife, Li Yichen excitedly shouted to Wang Gaoming as soon as he returned to the yard.

"Director Wang, borrow two boxes of fishing bait!"

Chapter 161 The Power of Knowledge (for Subscription)

knowledge is power.

Li Yichen has never been as confident as he is today since he landed on Fuhua Island.

The advanced knowledge of sea fishing that he has now mastered is that he believes from the bottom of his heart that he can catch fish.

Really, it feels like you can catch any fish in the sea now.

Li Yichen silently calculated it in his mind.

Two boxes of 24 sand shrimp bait, even if half of them are wasted, you can still catch twelve fish.

It’s only worth two fish, it’s such a bargain!

Li Yichen suddenly felt troubled when he thought of this.

Alas, there are too many fish, what should I do if I can’t finish them all?
