The next day, Zheng Gan and his two companions brought a water pump and other equipment to the hard rock beach on the back mountain. This place was different from the mudflats in the village. There were only rocks underneath and no sand at all.
There are big pits on the stone ground, which are usually covered by the sea during high tide and exposed only during low tide.
At this time, Zheng Gan had already started using the map to check the conditions of the surrounding puddles.
Pumping out the puddle is an activity that depends entirely on luck. If you are unlucky, there will only be a few small fish in the puddle. If you are lucky, there may even be some seafood that is not normally seen in the shallow sea.
"Let's go to a higher place. The terrain here is a bit low. The sea water might rise before it is pumped out." Zheng Gan suggested. Besides, there were only a few scattered red dots in the puddles in front of them, so there was no point in pumping them out.
Now that the map has expanded, you can basically see the situation around you.
After walking upwards for another ten minutes, Zheng Gan stopped, pointed at the puddle in front of him and said, "Let's choose this one."
The puddle he chose was not particularly large, only about ten meters in area, and its depth was only around his lower abdomen, which met the conditions for pumping the puddle.
After selecting the site, Qiao Xin began to debug the live broadcast equipment, while Zheng Gan and Lin Hao installed the water pump and generator, put them into the water and started pumping out.
The pumping process takes a long time, so the three of them can only wait on the side, chatting with the audience in the live broadcast room and explaining some basic information about seafood.
It is worth mentioning that the number of fans in Qiao Xin’s live broadcast account has exceeded 10,000, and the growth rate is very gratifying. There are basically more than 500 people watching the show every day.
Two hours later, the water in the puddle finally reached the calf level. Zheng Gan and Lin Hao could no longer hold back, so they put on gloves and jumped in.
Especially Zheng Gan. His map showed that there were still several large red dots in the pit. If Qiao Xin hadn't stopped him, he would have gone down long ago.
Playing in the water pit is just like opening a blind box. There are too many uncertain factors involved, and you may even encounter danger if you are not careful.
"Brother, there is something in here. I felt something hit my butt, and it felt quite strong." Lin Hao grinned.
"Then we can't have this seafood. Anyone who eats it might get poisoned." Zheng Gan sneered, "And are you blind? The water is so shallow and you can't even see what it is. How shameful."
The water level is not high now. As long as you concentrate, you can basically see the seafood in it.
"Sister Xin, just hold the fish box up there. We'll give you whatever we catch. Don't come down." Seeing that she was eager to try and wanted to come down, Zheng Gan quickly stopped her.
"Oh, okay, then you guys be careful." Qiao Xin pursed her lips and turned around to continue interacting with the audience in the live broadcast room.
This was also Zheng Gan's first time at the water hole, and he clearly lacked experience. Although he had the help of a map to locate the fish, catching fish was a technical job and not that simple.
He found a small red dot under a stone and immediately decided to use it to practice his craft. Zheng Gan put his hand in and touched something in an instant. It felt a little slippery, and he was so scared that he almost pulled his hand back.
Fortunately, this thing is not that thin and does not look like a sea snake, otherwise I would be scared to death. This is the disadvantage of the water pit. If you can't see clearly, you may really encounter a sea snake, which is poisonous.
Zheng Gan grabbed it and pulled it out quickly. When it saw what was in its hand, its face turned black. Then it threw it away without a trace, and continued to look for other seafood with a normal expression.
I thought I had done it perfectly, but I didn't expect that the audience in the live broadcast room could see it all clearly.
"Hahaha, I saw it, the handsome boy just threw a stone nine-gong!"
"As expected, it seems that Shi Jiugong is the best destination for him."
"It's strange to say, but now whenever I see that handsome boy bringing up Shi Jiugong, I inexplicably feel a surge of confidence."
"What the above person said is right. I feel the same way. I'm planning to give it a try in the next couple of days."
Fortunately, Zheng Gan was fully focused on slacking off, otherwise if he saw what was said in the live broadcast room, he would definitely be so ashamed that he would jump into the sea.
"Fuck, such a big octopus!" Lin Hao's exclamation immediately attracted the attention of Zheng Gan and Qiao Xin.
Qiao Xin took the equipment and fish box directly to Lin Hao and showed them to the audience in the live broadcast room from a closer distance.
"It should weigh about six or seven kilograms, but the price of this octopus at the seaside is not very expensive. An octopus of this size is only thirty or forty yuan per kilogram." Qiao Xin explained immediately.
"This isn't expensive. It's almost three hundred yuan each. Poverty really limits my imagination."
"The anchor has grown more ambitious. He's no longer the one digging razor clams and mussels for us to watch."
The live broadcast room was filled with comments complaining about being poor, which made Qiao Xin laugh and cry.
Lin Hao's shop was the first to open. Although the price was not that attractive, it was still exciting to catch such a big octopus.
Zheng Gan curled his lips on the other side. He had already locked onto a big target, which was one of the best in the entire puddle. The vaguely exposed body had made him basically sure what kind of fish it was.
At this moment, Zheng Gan held his breath and dared not move, for fear of disturbing the big fish. He stood there motionless for five minutes, until the big fish stopped. Then he quickly reached out with both hands, grabbed the fish's body as quickly as possible, and pulled it up.
"It's indeed a golden eel!" Zheng Gan smiled, and hurriedly and carefully picked it up and walked to the fish box and threw it in.
Qiao Xin came over after hearing the sound. Looking at the golden eel struggling in the fish-flavored box, she showed an incredible expression on her face, and then began to give a scientific explanation in the live broadcast room.
"This is the golden eel, a type of eel. This fish is very popular on the island. In recent years, they have been hyped up to high prices. The price of one kilogram is over 200 yuan."
"This golden eel can probably be sold for more than a thousand yuan."
Normally, the audience in the live broadcast room should be amazed when seeing such a large item, but the strange thing is that the barrage in Qiao Xin's live broadcast room has already started to send gifts.
This is a bit abnormal.
When she saw the content of the barrage clearly, she understood instantly. It turned out that just like when he was sea fishing the day before, Zheng Gan once again showed his expression of "I am the best in the world" in the live broadcast room.
"I... I'm going to go fishing, you continue." Zheng Gan was frightened when he saw Qiao Xin's murderous look, and then jumped into the puddle as fast as he could.
