Mudskippers are very similar in color to mud, so you need to be very focused when digging them up to avoid accidentally tearing them apart. Dead or injured mudskippers are of no value.
Just as they were about to catch the mudskipper, it suddenly darted outwards and landed right under Li Xindong's hoe, its head and body being severed.
Li Xindong trembled with heartache.
This mudskipper weighs two ounces! If it's cut in half, we can only keep it for ourselves; we can't sell it for any money. What a huge loss!
well!
With a sigh, Li Xindong put the mudskipper, which had broken in two, into the bucket, found a rock, covered it with a layer of mud, and sat down on it.
After taking the kettle out of the bucket and gulping down two mouthfuls of water, Li Xindong checked his harvest from the past three hours.
There were about twenty mudskippers in the bucket, only three of which weighed an ounce each; the rest were thin and small, probably weighing less than two pounds in total.
But for a beginner, this is already quite an achievement.
He found a clean spot on his clothes to wipe his hands, and carefully took out a cell phone wrapped in a plastic bag from his pocket.
As soon as he turned on his phone, he saw a message from his class monitor, Gu Wen.
"The fast food restaurant where Xu An works during the summer break is still hiring. If you're interested, you can ask him. You can find him in the class group chat; his QQ name is 'Xu's Fast Food Restaurant.'"
Xu's Fast Food Restaurant, what a strange name!
Li Xindong found Xu An's QQ number in the class group and opened a temporary chat window.
"Xu An, this is Xin Dong. I heard from the squad leader that your workplace is still hiring summer workers, is that right?"
After seeing Gu Wen off, Xu An lay back down under the longan tree and continued to rest with his eyes closed.
Upon hearing the QQ notification sound, Xu An grabbed his phone and opened it to check, only to find that it was a message from Li Xindong.
I just told Gu Wen that the store was hiring, and Li Xindong came right away. That's really fast.
"Yes, the store also needs delivery riders. They'll be paid 0.5 yuan per meal delivered, working hours are from 11 am to 2 pm, paid daily, and the restaurant provides lunch."
What is a food delivery rider?
"After customers place orders through various platforms, fast food restaurants prepare the pre-ordered meals and then send them to the customers via delivery riders. These are the delivery riders."
After Xu An's explanation, Li Xindong finally understood what a food delivery rider was.
But when he thought about those fast food restaurants, which mainly deliver to nearby customers, they only serve twenty or thirty boxed meals at most at noon, which would only cost a little over ten yuan, so he wasn't very interested.
After reviewing the information again, I discovered that the working hours are three hours at noon.
The sun is too strong at this time of day; going out to sea to catch mudskippers could easily result in heatstroke.
If you can't catch mudskippers, you can deliver food. You can earn more than ten yuan in a lunch break, and it even includes a meal. That's not bad!
Okay, I'll come to the store to find you tomorrow. What's the address of the fast food restaurant?
"We'll meet at Xu's Fast Food Restaurant on Zijing Road South. Remember to bring your ID card and arrive before 10:30. We'll set off after you've eaten."
'OK. '
Li Xindong put away his phone, took a big gulp of water, and continued his work of catching mudskippers.
