Chapter 497 The First Pot of Gold From Jellyfish Is Obtained

Even Father Pei looked at the water below in disbelief, "No wonder there are so many jellyfish around. It turns out to be the reason for the underwater terrain."

"It should be. If there are so many every year, it must be due to the terrain. I don't know how long this trench has existed. I heard it was caused by an earthquake or something."

"Whatever, let's hurry up and catch ours. We'll be here to collect the goods at nine o'clock. You guys hurry up and catch them. We've already caught dozens of them."

"Hey, okay..."

Ye Yaodong added: "We will catch almost everything later. Let's drag one net back each person to save some time and process it directly on the shore in the afternoon."

"This is good..."

Under the rays of the scorching sun, streaks of golden rays of light appeared on the sea, and the blue waves were dyed golden, as if lined with a layer of bright gold, sparkling and rising and falling.

Pieces of jellyfish floated and swayed with the surging sea water. Everyone was busy and sweating, and chatting with each other did not feel boring.

"There seem to be several turtles down here. I just saw several of them biting jellyfish there."

"I've seen it too. The biting, pulling and sucking are more efficient than eating noodles..." Ye Yaopeng couldn't help but complain.

"It's a pity that such big jellyfish got into their mouths. It's all money. I don't know how many kilograms they eat in a day. It would be nice to give them all to us..."

Father Ye couldn't help but said: "Have you finished fishing? Turtles eat jellyfish, why don't you give them food? Unless you fish out all the turtles under there, a group of turtles just fell into the jellyfish group." "

"Huh? A group? No wonder I keep seeing turtles from time to time."

"Then all this must have gone into their stomachs?"

"How much do you have to eat? What a pity. Don't let it all go to waste..."

Father Ye couldn't help but slap his thigh and regretted, "Hey, it's a pity. If I had known that we had caught the turtles just now, they are here day and night, so the jellyfish on the sea can't take advantage of them? I guess what we caught is still there." It doesn’t eat as much.”

"Okay, okay, let's catch it quickly! Where can we eat day and night? The sea around here is full of them. While it floats up in the morning, catch more quickly. When the sun rises at noon, most of the They all have to sink into the water.”

"Hurry up and catch it, hurry up and catch it..."

Father Pei couldn't help but feel pity, "If I had known, I would have called two more workers. I thought three people would be enough."

"Who would have thought? It's not easy to call it. It's far away, not close, and it doesn't take long." Father Ye agreed.

…

Three boats were scattered around, and everyone was sweating profusely. It was almost eight o'clock when they were exhausted, and Ye Yaodong called everyone to take a rest.

"Stop fishing. It's almost 8 o'clock. Let's put the net down after a short break and go back while dragging it."

"Going back now? I wish I had eight hands."

"Both hands are almost exhausted. How can you still live with eight hands?" Ye Yaodong said with a smile, "Okay, you have to do it properly, otherwise you will overdo it and your body will not be able to bear it. Pull it back later and unload it." After the sale is completed, I will come out again."

The three people quickly agreed, pulled up what they had on hand, and sat aside. Each of them drank three large ladles of tea, gasping for air.

"The sea looks like the sky turned upside down, and it's quite beautiful."

"The main thing is that the sea water is clear and blue, which makes it beautiful."

Father Ye also stood with his hands on his hips, gasping for breath. He saw the two boats next door still fishing there, and shouted to them, "Okay, it's time, prepare to lower the net, and drag the net back."

Ye Yaopeng wiped his sweat and said regretfully: "I'm late. If I had known earlier, I would have followed closer."

Ye Yaohua couldn't help complaining, "You have too many "I knew it earlier"... You knew everything earlier..."

Ye Yaopeng turned around and glared at him, "Who could have predicted this?"

"Okay, okay, let's take a break and get back to work. What's the fuss about?"

When Father Ye spoke, the two brothers only quarreled for a few words and then stopped.

Everyone wanted to take advantage of the return trip to put out the nets to catch a wave, and without taking a rest, they hurriedly took out the fishing nets and sorted them out.

The people on Ye Yaodong's boat had already arranged the fishing nets first. Now they could just start the boat and release the nets, so they took the first step.

As the boat slowly moved, the fishing nets were lowered into the sea bit by bit. Others quickly picked up their knives and quickly processed the jellyfish they had just caught.

They all have a big heart. There are so many jellyfish floating on the sea, some big and some small. They all fish for the big ones.

The fish caught weighed less than 50 pounds each, and the umbrellas on them were as big as a small round table.

Ye Yaodong caught one and flipped the umbrella end, but they were all still alive. "Be careful when you catch them. Don't get stung. Although you are all wearing gloves, you are all shirtless. Don't get stung on your arms. Yesterday, the Lu family Everyone has gone to get some water."

"We have dealt with it many times, we will be careful."

Father Ye sailed the boat there. He first made the fishing boat circle around the edge of the island. When he felt that the speed of the boat had slowed down, he picked up the speed a little more, and then drove towards the village at a constant speed.

The two boats behind them haven't started to lower their nets yet, but that's okay. Their boats will dock first, and the harvesters can harvest them first when they arrive.

When they drove to the coast, many fishing boats also rowed to the shore one after another, and all of them returned with a full load. The fishermen all had smiles of joy on their faces with the harvest.

I heard that after the production team was disbanded, everyone in their village earned quite well during the jellyfish fishing season last year.

Ye Yaodong and the others also seize the time to divide them up. It would be best if they can take them away in one wave.

But when their fishing boat docked on the sea, the shore suddenly became chaotic, and people on the surrounding boats hurriedly got off the boat and waded to the shore.

On the small boats and bamboo rafts that were being unloaded on the coast, the young and middle-aged people on them hurriedly ran forward aggressively holding the bamboo poles used to support the boats.

After discovering it, Father Ye quickly shouted: "Do you think there is any accident on the shore?"

The four of them were originally bowing their heads in a hurry to separate. After hearing this, they all stood up and looked into the distance.

"What's wrong?"

"Ouch, is this another fight?"

"There are quite a few people..."

"Did people from the next village come here to find a place? Yesterday, they were caught off guard. Unwilling to accept it, they called someone here again today?"

"may be."

"Tsk, tsk, tsk~ Why don't you make money peacefully and peacefully? This fight is really delaying things!"

"People are fighting for a breath, and Buddhas are fighting for a stick of incense. The conflict between the two villages cannot be settled. How can the fight be postponed? When the anger comes up, just roll up your sleeves and do it. The whole night has passed. , the anger grew even more."

Father Ye listened to their discussion and said: "We will split up at the beach later, and the jellyfish blood will be carried ashore later after they finish beating."

"Well, when Chen Jianian comes over later, just ask him to call the people to the beach to collect them. Don't look at it, there is a net of jellyfish behind it, and they have to be dragged slowly to the beach one by one."

"Work, work..."

They say don't look at it, but everyone's attention is also focused on the shore from time to time.

It's a bit far away, but you can still see the beach. The temporary sheds built by the women have been demolished, and a long wooden board specially built on it to separate the jellyfish has also been lifted, and the jellyfish next to it are scattered everywhere. .

The young and middle-aged people were pushing and pulling, and the women stood aside in fear.

Boats kept docking on the beach, and more and more people joined in. Even when Chen Jiannian calculated the time to come over, he was in trouble.

He ran halfway before putting on one of his shoes that had fallen off, and then patted the footprints on his butt behind him.

"Oh my god, I was just passing by and got kicked several times. Fortunately, I ran fast, otherwise I would have been left behind. These people are so impulsive. They didn't even finish the fight yesterday, and they continued today."

He dug into his pocket again, "Fortunately, I didn't drop the money. I was even afraid of dropping it, so I put it in my trouser pocket and held it tightly with one hand."

Ye Yaodong's eyes lit up when he saw him taking out a lot of Tutuan.

Father Ye was also excited, "Did you get the money?"

Chen Jianian also smiled and said: "Yes, I couldn't wait in the morning, so I went over to settle the accounts when I had nothing to do. I was scolded by my friend and asked me to go over to settle accounts in the afternoon instead of in the morning, otherwise they wouldn't be given to me. "

Ye Yaodong also said happily: "It's like this. Businessmen hate it most when someone comes to ask for money in the morning. Next time, go in the afternoon."

"Haha, aren't I afraid that you guys won't be able to wait? This first sum of money will definitely be in your pocket early, so don't worry, otherwise what if you think I ran away?"

"No, no, I still have this bit of trust."

"Come on, come on, I'll give you the money. You can count it and see if the quantity is correct. The inventory is here too."

He put the money into Ye Yaodong's hand, took out a few more slips, found one and put it on top to show them.

"This is the 520 yuan sold on the first day plus 77 yuan and 4 cents. I drew 5 points, leaving 567 yuan, 5 cents and 6 cents."

Just now, Ye Yaopeng's, Ye Yaohua's and Pei's father's boats also docked one after another. Seeing Chen Jianian handing out a lot of money to Ye Yaodong, they all gathered around excitedly.

"Dongzi, did you get money?"

"The money from selling goods on the first day? It's so much, can you get it so quickly?"

Chen Jianian said with a smile: "We are acquaintances, and I was afraid that you would be anxious, so I went to get it the next day. I was scolded a lot in the morning, but it was fine. It's good that I can get the money. Do the math and see. Is the quantity correct? If not, we’ll calculate it again.”

Ye Yaodong glanced at the bill of goods and pretended not to care: "If something is wrong, it must be right. Your calculation must be better than mine. Is it possible that my calculation is wrong? Thank you very much. It's hard for you to run back and forth."

"Isn't it hard work? I am also making money. Without you, I wouldn't be able to earn this money. You count it first to see if it is correct. My brother will settle the account clearly. We must settle this account clearly."

"OK."
