The three of them first tied one side of the rope around themselves and the other side to the reef to ensure safety. After all, they were going to a place with waves, and with the help of a rope, it would be much safer.
"You three must be careful." Qiao Xin warned. Even though they were all veterans, they still had to pay attention to what they should pay attention to.
"Don't worry, we're protected by a rope, so there's no problem." Zheng Gan grinned. It was the first time he used this method to catch sea cucumbers. Before, he just picked them up directly on the beach.
The three of them carefully entered the sea with the landing net. As soon as they entered, Lin Hao shuddered.
"Damn, the water is pretty cold."
It is already the end of October, the temperature has dropped a lot, and the water temperature is even colder. Fortunately, I was wearing wide shorts, otherwise I would definitely catch a cold.
"You must be freaking weak." Zheng Gan chuckled strangely, "I'll go back to Uncle Qiang and get you two sets of the Five Treasures for health supplements."
The so-called five treasures of health preservation are oysters, sandworms, starfish, sand garlic, and sea cucumbers. These five kinds of seafood are very friendly to men. Once before, Zheng Gan and his friends went to the sea and happened to come across a special event of these five treasures. They were ridiculed by Lin Hao on the spot. Now they must not let go of this opportunity.
"Heh." Lin Hao sneered, "Yes, I may be weak, but where are you? Why are your legs shaking so badly?"
Zheng Gan also felt cold. His legs couldn't help but tremble from the moment he entered the water. Even with the protection of the water shorts, it was no use. But even if he was discovered, he still insisted,
"I was standing for too long, so I was shaking."
As a result, while the two of them were bickering, the bucket in Jiang Feng's hand was almost full of sea cucumbers. There was no choice but to temporarily stop fighting. The important thing was to catch the sea cucumbers first.
So the three of them officially started to work, while Qiao Xin and Jiang Xiaolin were picking things up in the reef area outside. They had come out to play, and besides sea cucumbers, there were many other things in the reef area.
Two hours later, Zheng Gan was the first to come out of the sea. At this time, he was really tired and hungry, and his body temperature had dropped a lot after staying in the sea for such a long time.
"Drink some hot water first to warm yourself up, and then eat something." Qiao Xin handed over the cup of water. They took a lot of snacks because they were afraid that they would get hungry after going to the beach.
Zheng Gan took the water cup and drank two big mouthfuls. Luckily, he brought his wife with him. Otherwise, if a few rough guys came, they would at most bring some bread, ham, mineral water, etc. Want some hot water? It's unthinkable.
After drinking some hot water, he finally felt his body temperature rising a little. At this time, Lin Hao and Jiang Feng also came up.
"The three of us have got about ten buckets in total. If we add sea water, we should have about 300 kilograms." Jiang Feng gave the report excitedly.
Qiao Xin and Jiang Xiaolin have picked up almost 50 kilograms of goods on the shore, and the total amount picked up by the five of them is nearly 400 kilograms.
The market price of sea intestine is 60 yuan per catty, and the purchase price is between 45 and 50 yuan. These 400 catties are worth almost 20,000 yuan.
Don’t think that these 20,000 yuan is not as good as the one hundred thousand or even more yuan you can earn by fishing overseas. But to be honest, if you want to earn 20,000 yuan by fishing overseas, there are probably not many people in the world who can do it.
Anyway, Jiang Xiaolin was shocked. She was working in the seafood-hunting area now and came into contact with people who were fishing there every day. Usually in ordinary seafood-hunting areas, if someone could pick up seafood worth 1,800 yuan, it would cause a sensation.
Even among those fake sea-hunting scams on the Internet, no one dares to get a harvest of 20,000 yuan.
"Don't be surprised. This is nothing. You'll get used to it in the future." Lin Hao said to his wife with a smile, "Why else do you think we were able to make so much money in two years?"
Jiang Xiaolin suddenly realized that this was indeed the case. She knew how poor Zheng Gan and Lin Hao were before, and now they had accumulated so much wealth in such a short time.
"Eat something and take a rest first, then go down and fish for an hour and then come back." Zheng Gan walked over and said. The tide takes about four and a half to five hours to recede, so it is just right to eat, take a short rest, and then fish for another hour.
…
"Let's go back, family." After an hour, Zheng Gan was too tired to hold on any longer, so he began to urge everyone to leave.
Another reason is that the map plug-in shows that there are not too many sea cucumbers in the sea, so there is no need to continue.
The others nodded and began to pack up. During the previous break, the three rough guys had already delivered a batch of sea cucumbers back to the boat, so the five of them were able to take everything away.
After getting on the boat, Lin Hao went straight to the cockpit, Jiang Feng went to sort out the sea cucumbers and weigh them by the way, only Zheng Gan went back to the room in the cabin and lay down.
When they arrived at the dock, they decisively handed all the sea cucumbers to Wang Dongqiang's employees, without even weighing them, and took everyone home.
Just a moment after arriving home, Wang Dongqiang transferred the money over without even bothering to make a phone call.
A total of 524 kilograms of sea cucumbers were harvested today. Based on the purchase price of 50 yuan per unit, the total profit was yuan.
"There are five of us going together, so let's split the money equally." Zheng Gan began to transfer money to each person. He didn't care about the small amount of money. He was just out to relax and have fun, so he just split it equally.
For five people, each person gets 5,240 yuan in total.
Jiang Xiaolin was about to say something when she was held down by Lin Hao. What was their relationship? They were truly family. It was only about 5,000 yuan, so there was really no need to refuse.
"It's done. The money has been transferred. Let's go home and have a rest." Zheng Gan sent them away after transferring the money. He felt cold and tired now. He just wanted to get into bed and have a good sleep.
They decided to take a holiday starting from tomorrow. There are still six days left before Lin Hao's wedding officially begins. They can't go out during this period. If something happens that they need to be busy with, it would be bad if they can't find anyone.
Moreover, as brother and sister-in-law, Zheng Gan and Qiao Xin must be busier.
…
In a blink of an eye, it was the day before the wedding. From today on, they entered the wedding mode. As soon as they woke up in the morning, Zheng Gan and Lin Hao set out to Jiang Xiaolin's house to move boxes.
The so-called moving boxes is also a custom here. The groom and his brother need to go to the bride's house the day before the wedding and move two red boxes back to the new house.
