After returning home, Lin Xiuqing was surprised.
"Come back? So soon?"
"Then how long do you want me?"
She said angrily: "Didn't you go to literacy class? Why are you back so soon?"
"No, I went out to buy cigarettes and took a walk."
"You want to ride a bicycle even if you buy cigarettes? Why are your legs so valuable?"
"Isn't it? 200 meters is considered a long distance."
Lin Xiuqing rolled her eyes. She felt a little more relaxed after listening to his nonsense, which relieved her nervousness. She touched her belly and really hoped to give birth as soon as possible to avoid long nights and nightmares.
Ye Yaodong looked at her stroking movements and comforted: "Don't worry, persistence is victory!"
"Um."
Because of what happened during the day, Ye Yaodong did not go to sea at night.
Early the next morning, I heard from the building next door that a dozen people were caught gambling in the village next door, and they were all from the surrounding villages.
"Well done. They are all a bunch of bad gamblers. We should arrest them all..."
"It's best to be detained for a few more days..."
"It seems that a few were arrested in our village..."
After hearing this, he felt a little relieved. It was still necessary to gather people to gamble and squat for ten days and a half.
They are short of time now, and they will succeed if they survive this period safely.
Lin Xiuqing felt relieved after hearing that Ye Yaodong said that her cousin-in-law was caught gambling, "How many days can he be detained for this?"
"Now we will crack down hard. Small mistakes will be punished severely. You will be detained for ten days and a half, and you will also be fined a sum of money."
When she heard this, she was immediately delighted, "Great, then we can be clean for a while. What a coincidence, I just gave him the money last night and immediately heard that he was arrested."
When she said this, she paused for a moment, thinking that as soon as she went out yesterday, A Dong followed closely, and then came back and went out on a bicycle after a while...
"Did you report it?" she asked quietly.
Ye Yaodong nodded.
Even if your legs and feet are broken, you can still give orders. It's better not to send them in. You can buy them a lot of time if you send them in.
You can hit someone anytime.
Moreover, as soon as the front foot came to blackmail, the back foot was beaten, which is easy to associate with him. It would be good to be locked up for ten days and a half.
Lin Xiuqing said angrily: "I have only been detained for a few days, so I am giving him an advantage."
"Wait until you give birth safely, then teach him a lesson." Ye Yaodong touched her belly and said in a whisper: "Be more confident and come out quickly."
"Hurry, hurry..."
After waiting at home for two more days, Ye Yaodong, who had been calm all this time, felt relieved.
After having nothing to do these two days, he stopped by Lin Jishang's house. He wanted to ask him about setting up the network machine, but his wife told him that he was not at home.
Thinking about it, he had no choice but to take it easy and come back in a few days.
Unexpectedly, Lin Jishang delivered what he wanted the next night.
"This machine is heavy, takes up space, and is not popular. It is not as easy to use as small household appliances. No one is willing to bring it, so I have put it off until now. You can try it tomorrow."
"Thank you very much."
He pulled out two cigarettes for the boys who helped carry the machine, and everyone was taken care of.
By the way, he ran out of cigarettes a bit quickly and spent all his pocket money on them.
Lin Jishang saw that he was quite a good person, so he didn't mind helping him a little more, "Would you like to help you get on the boat?"
….
"Ah, that would be perfect."
"Well, by the way, the manpower is readily available anyway."
As they interacted, the two of them had a tacit sense of understanding.
After carrying it on the boat, he tried running it again. After there was no problem, Ye Yaodong went back to get the money.
At night he couldn't wait to go to sea.
When Father Ye saw the net lifting machine, he was extremely surprised.
"Where did you do this?"
"What do you care about me?
Did it? Anyway, it would be nice to save effort. I was exhausted during this period. "
"Your hands and feet are expensive, and everyone is like that? How much does this machine cost?"
"Don't ask, just use it if you have it."
If he did, he would be scolded, so he wouldn't say it.
"Isn't it cheap? How many hundred?"
"It will last for many years and is a good deal."
When Father Ye saw that he would not say how much it would cost, he cursed and said a few more words about prodigal son and stopped asking.
After using a machine to try to pull up a net, Ye's father was also happy, "This saves a lot of effort, and the load-bearing capacity is good."
"Of course, otherwise why spend this money? Isn't it just to suffer less? And it is much faster to use a machine than to use human power."
As Ye Yaodong spoke, he untied the fishing net and dumped all the goods on the deck. Because it was too dense and there were too many goods, the fish were crushed to death, but most of the crabs and shrimps were still alive and kicking. Can jump.
The father and son quickly arranged the fishing nets, and then continued to put them down happily. Then one person drove the boat and the other sorted them.
In order to haul more goods at once, Ye Yaodong deliberately spent a little more time on the second day before setting up the net.
Under the pulling force of the net lifting machine, the net port on the sea surface began to gradually tighten. After it was completely tightened, as the pulling force became stronger and stronger, the fishing net was slowly pulled out of the water.
They also clearly saw a large bag full of white pomfret in the fishing net!
Unexpectedly, the second net immediately burst into flames and encountered a school of white pomfret. One bag weighed more than 100 kilograms, and Father Ye could not open his mouth from ear to ear with joy.
Fishermen's trawlers love to encounter schools of fish.
"White pomfret is good, white pomfret is good, this pack is quite big."
Ye Yaodong was also happy, then he poured it out and fiddled with it a little, "There are at least five taels of white pomfret in this net, all of which are large white pomfrets."
"Then continue to put it in this area."
"OK."
I put in two more nets in a row. The quantity at the back was smaller and there were more groceries, but it really saved a lot of effort. I didn’t have to drag it for a long time.
Seeing that the time was almost up, Ye Yaodong went to the reef in advance to collect the ground cages. When he went to sea at night, he lowered a row of ground cages to the reef as usual.
You have to work hard to get the wool. The sea cucumber is so expensive, so you can’t miss it.
It's just that the first floor cage today was stuck and couldn't be pulled.
"I'll go into the water and take a look. I'll tie up the diesel engine underneath and use a machine to pull it up later."
Father Ye frowned, "Then be careful. Find the ground cage first, and then tie up the machine."
"knew."
Ye Yaodong put on his equipment again, and after a simple warm-up exercise, he dived into the water. He ignored the fish and shrimp he saw halfway and went straight to the bottom of the sea to save time.
Today's ground cage is easy to find because it lays relatively densely.
….
As soon as he came down, he saw four stuck in a row, two stuck in the crevices of the reef, one hooked by the coral reef, and the third one was hooked by the sharp top of the reef.
The four of them were a little far apart, but luckily, they were fairly easy to find. When he came down, he looked around and saw them.
He rescued the ground cages one by one and put them aside, and took a look at the harvest inside. There were many and some, mostly fish, including a few small green dragons.
There are also unstuck ground cages on the seabed not far away. The cages sunk on the sand on the bottom of the sea can harvest more sea cucumbers. After all, sea cucumbers move slowly.
Just leave these and wait for his father to pull them up. He swam directly towards the sunken ship in the distance and went straight to the topic.
Then he lowered the rope on his back and tied the large diesel engine tightly.
Activities in the sea are not as good as on the shore. After working for a while, he tied up the machine tightly. He also panted tiredly, but when he thought that the net bag around his waist was still empty, he got off the sunken ship and swam to the bottom of the sea.
But I happened to see a chubby sea cucumber being hugged tightly by a starfish.
That’s okay!
What a waste of natural resources.
He stretched out his hand to pick up the starfish and threw it aside, and then picked up the sea cucumber. Probably before he could enjoy it, the sea cucumber was still intact.
After receiving it in the net bag, he slowly moved towards the reef.
Digging abalone is easier because he doesn't have to look for it everywhere. The last few times he went into the water, he had to go on missions and he came and went in a hurry. He didn't have much free time to slowly look for sea cucumbers, so he could only try to pack as much as he could.
But his sharp eyes also allowed him to catch two from the seaweed nearby.
By the time the net bag was seven-quarters full, he was almost reaching his limit.
He quickly returned to the sunken ship, pulled the rope in his hand, and quickly floated up. He happened to see a cage next to him, and he also pulled it up, and they surfaced together.
Having seen him go into the water several times with his own eyes, Father Ye was less worried today. He only asked with concern: "How's it going? Are they all tied up? The ground cage was pulled smoothly today, but the first one got stuck. I’m not stuck anymore.”
"That's because I just freed all the stuck cages. Otherwise, it wouldn't be so smooth. There's a reef underneath."
As he spoke, he climbed up, temporarily tied the rope tied to the machine in his hand, pulled up the net bag first, and poured all the goods into the basket.
Father Ye took a glance and saw that they were all abalones. He was not disappointed, but he was not very happy either. He had seen too many things and was not new or surprised...
"Wait a minute, after the two ground cages have been collected, we will pull up the machine."
Ye Yaodong nodded and left the ground cage to his father. He went to hang the rope on the net machine first and made preparations in advance.
After Ye's father freed his hands, he started the machine.
The rope was slowly rolled up section by section. As the tension increased, the net hoist also began to make a tightening sound, which made Ye Yaodong and Ye's father, who had been there, crane their necks to look at the sea.
After a while, a large machine slowly surfaced on the water. The father and son happily came to the edge and helped lift it when they were pulling it ashore.
After the machine landed steadily on the deck, the two of them breathed a sigh of relief.
"Fortunately, there is a net lifting machine, otherwise we wouldn't be able to pull it up by manpower. We would have to call in a few more people."
"When I get back, I'll ask a master to come and clean it and see if it's still usable."
"Well, it's a pity that the boat can't be fished out."
"It would be nice to be able to fish out this machine. Let's go, put away the longline and go back early."
On the way back, they met Xiaoxiao and Azheng. It turned out that they were working in the sea not far from them.
After saying hello to each other and chatting for a few words about the harvest, everyone walked back together.
When we arrived at the shore, we met A Guang's boat, which also docked at the same time. The three boats docked side by side. Everyone had a good harvest. Baskets of fish were piled on the deck, and everyone had a smile on their face with the harvest.
The brothers who had been trash together all boarded the boat, and Ye Yaodong was really happy from the bottom of his heart.
